I can't believe my mom lied to me about my aunt, about her freaking own sister. But I hate when people drag my father into their useless conversations.

I can remember my mom telling about how she met my father in high school and how my father used to tell me stuff about how he and his friends did pranks on the girls and how my mom was one of those girls. And now I'm pretty sure that my so called aunt and uncle know dad as they went to the same high school.

" I don't know why you are dragging my father into this conversation but I why, the hell I shouldn't know about you two who are supposed to be my relatives and what's it got to do with my dad? "

When I said that owner's wife or rather my aunt looked surprised.
Damn. I shouldn't have let my mouth slip. I promised my mom not let anyone realize that I'm the President's daughter as people use us children to get power and beat the president.

" Rebecca.. does... does that mean you.... know about him?, "

Asked my aunt, in a way completely ignoring my own question.

Yayy.... congrats for not keeping your mouth shut Rebecca. Now no point hiding the damn truth about me. Sorry dad, I can't keep my promise to you. 

" The fact that Illyria's President Mr. Daniel is my father? Yes, I know about it. Why shouldn't I know that too? "

" No no it's not that..... "

But my aunt was interrupted with a voice that belongs to a person who I forgot is here in this room.

" Wait a second. Rebecca your father is President Daniel as in the guy who won the most v....... "

" Thanks Andrew, I get what you mean. Yes, that person is my one and only father. "

" Rebecca dear, do you talk with him? Does he come home? "

" Yes and No madam I mean er .... aunt. Yes, dad talks with me and Dick secretly and sometimes we used to cut school and meet him in a cafe. Mom knows that but acts like she doesn't know. When I was little dad used to come home and play with me everyday and there were security men everywhere. Well that's long ago, before he became the president and  before Dick was born. After few years when I was just around 10 years and Dick 3 years he wanted to be the president. He knew being the president is more risky than being a minister so he left and still didn't come unless it's mine, Dick's or mom's birthday."

I gave a sigh and continued,

" At that time I didn't know why he left and why couldn't I play with him everyday. But one day when he talked on the tv, just when he became the president, my mom told me that the president is my father. Mom only did what dad told her to do, to protect us. Well, but I didn't stop meeting him secretly and now everything is over because of the scandal happened and dad comes home twice or thrice a week now. "

" Oh! I thought you didn't know that's your father. I'm sorry, Rebecca. "

I don't see the big deal anyway being a president's daughter. But now I really want to change the topic so I turned towards my uncle,

" So what's all this got to do with me? "

" Oh! I forgot about why I called you guys here. Yesterday night our funds were robbed and as a result we or rather the students are out of money to do the talent show this year. "

Chloe's voice broke into a loud sigh,

" But how could that happen? It's a shame. We all looked forward to this year's talent show. "

" I know child. That's why we need come up with a plan to raise enough money without just asking parents to give money. "

Just then an idea popped into my head well it's something I did in middle school too.

" Well, you could do a show with music and dances. Afterall you guys can't raise funds without giving the audience something in return. And with a show you can raise funds and at the same time the audience is entertained. Simple as that. "

When everyone kept looking at me in awe, Yuki found her voice,

" Hmm... it's a great idea but, the thing is Rebecca, we don't have much time and we don't have money to even decorate. "

" Seriously Yuki? Everything doesn't depend on money. We can use just random things to make things and decorate. But it's you guys' choice.... "

" Rebecca, you are from Illyria. You don't know anything about Avalona. Even if we are going to perform something, everything needs to be perfect. Maybe you don't know anything as you are a president's daughter and the workers can decorate everything. So you don't know how much we actually need to make this perfect. "

What's wrong with this girl? I'm pretty sure she's jealous. I don't care but does she really want to start a fight? And what it's got to do with me being my dad's daughter. I'm furious now.

" You... what......"

Carter interrupted me, clutching my hand and said,

" Becca... stop it. "

" Carter, just let me give her a piece of my mind. "

" Becca that's enough. You too Yuki. "

" Fine. But... ok let me say this one thing as you practically don't know me yet. Don't you dare act like you know anything about me, Yuki. And next time if you bring up me being a president's daughter, don't expect me to be quiet and I don't care if you are my cousin's Girlfriend. "

Her mouth literally dropped and I pulled my hand away from Carter who rolled his eyes and looked away trying hard not to laugh.

" Just do me a favor. Don't drag me into you guys's problems. I'm new to this school and as Yuki specifically mentioned, I'm new to Avalona as well. And aunt, Mrs. Peterson, I'll remember the fact that you are my relative. "

With that I started walking away from the small group, without even looking back I opened the door and came out. And everything collapsed, I lost my strength.

I was on the verge of crying and knowing that I need some space to calm myself, I saw a place like a garden, I walked there lost in thought. I sat in a corner behind the trees.  I want to go home and ask mom why she lied to me.

I want to know why's everyone making a great deal about me being Illyria's President's daughter. I took my phone out and found the pic where all of my family members are present. I miss home. I guess this is what you call getting homesick.

" I miss you guys so much. " I  slowly whispered.
