When dawn came, Mariana was just finishing getting ready and gathering all her things while Micah was sat on his bed, quietly buttoning his checkered shirt as he had a slight, annoying headache. They have not said a word to each other since they woke up.

Once Mariana was all ready, she looked over at Micah who still had this head down to his shirt. She wanted to say something before she left but she couldn't find the right words.

"Are you still upset?" She asked.

"Of course I am," he replied but it was mild and not so harsh, "but..." he said and then looked her straight in the eyes. He was a bit hesitant and careful of his words."I hope you have a good trip to Milan and I'll be waiting for you right here when you get back."

He forced a smile on his lips and opened his arms out toward her, even though he was still badly hurt by her words, as it seemed like she would chose his brother over him any day, which is what he feared the most.

She eagerly jumped into them as he embraced her. Mariana smiled so much as this was the first time they've been this close in ages.

"So how comes you changed your mind?" He asked before letting go. 

"What do you mean?"

"What happened that made you want to say sorry?"

"Micah I was going to say sorry anyway, but—uh—something did actually happen..."

"What?" He paused and his hands froze like they were stuck in time. "What happened?"

"Well I was in the kitchen last night and—and Mason—" she broke off into tears.

"What happened? What did he do to you?" He demanded, his anger gravitating to the top of his voice.

Mariana began to shake with fear, he had never seen his emotions change so fast and so drastically. It was actually scaring her.

"H—He pinned me against the counter and—"

"I'm gonna kill that bastard!" He exclaimed and then bolted out of his room. He was out like sonic the hedgehog, leaving behind a breeze of air that fanned Mariana.

She was still in a state of shock at his sudden reaction and even didn't get a chance to explain the rest, but anyway, Mason did deserve whatever was coming to him because he shouldn't have even come on to her like that.

She went downstairs with her suitcase and sat at the dining table. In good news, Electra wasn't there so she could have breakfast in peace.

She got a plate of fried salamis, mashed plantains, topped with sliced red onions, and a fried egg. She ate it all up and then went outside with Crystal who had on a gorgeous, sequin pink jacket and a pencil skirt. She had a pink Birkin around her arm and pulled her suitcase as she tapped away on her phone.

"Where's Makayla and Mylah?" Crystal said.

"Um..." Mariana looked around the whole luscious, green garden. The sun's light pierced through the clouds lightly, sending a light glimmer across the sky and a quick wind that tickled the grass and flowers. She then spotted them carrying something near the pool. "There they are!"

"What are they doing?" Crystal muttered under her breath as they sauntered toward them. She didn't want to waste any time getting to Milan.

Makayla and Mylah gathered all of Electra's clothes that she had taken, dumped them into a messy pile, and got them all dirty in the dirt. Makayla then poured gasoline poured all over them and Mylah lit a match and set it all on fire.

"Ooh look at it go!" Mylah squealed.

Makayla grabbed a stick and got a shirt that was being eaten up by the flames. She waved it around slowly like it was a flag.

"What are you doing!" Electra screamed and ran out in a bra and panties since she couldn't find anything to wear.

"Burning your clothes," Makayla giggled innocently.

"Are you insane!" She shrieked like a crazy woman, waving her arms around, and tried to grab the ones that hadn't been burnt yet. But while she was distracted, Makayla got behind her and clipped her bra off, and snatched it, making her breasts hang out like an old saggy women's.

Electra gasped and quickly hid them as she felt a chill blew about her naked body, it felt like cold, sharp needles were digging into her skin. "Give me my bra!" She cried out which sounded like a heartfelt plea.

"Why?" Makayla placed her hands on her hips. "You don't like being embarrassed? You don't like it when you're being made fun of? Well, why don't you start treating people nicely, and maybe, we'll treat you with a bit of respect."

"Giving you a taste of your own medicine!" Mylah chanted.

"Exactly!" Makayla said and high-fived her sister.

"Just give it to me!" Electra screamed again. She got up and she looked like a funny mannequin while blocking the view of her chest and trying to reach for her bra. She was freezing and the bitter wind was pulling her tears out like an unraveling rope.

Mylah grabbed her panties and yanked them down her skinny legs, causing her to trip on the ground. She threw the lace into the burning pile, leaving all of Electra's privates out on full display.

"Haha look! It's so hairy like a tarantula!" Makayla started laughing her head off as she pointed between Electra's legs. She quickly got out her phone and started taking pictures.

"Stop it!" Electra screamed as she cried even harder. She got up and tried covering herself as she reached for Makayla's phone.

"Cry more. Your tears are adding flavor to our enjoyment." Makayla smirked.

Electra jumped and was so close to grabbing it but Makayla passed it to Mylah just in time. Mylah ran off with it and got a water hose. She brought it there and sprayed Electra like she was an insect.

"We are going to have a great time laughing at these with Mariana on the plane," Makayla grinned evilly and suddenly pushed Electra into the pool, in front of everyone who was currently outside. Her wig came off and she began flapping around in the pool like a bird who can't fly. Everyone could see her butt crack that occasionally bobbed in and out of the water like a bubble. Her embarrassed pussy was still visible and she had never felt so humiliated.

They left her there and put out the fire which has made all her clothes smoking black. They went with their mom to the Mercedes car that will drop them off. Crystal told them off for setting a fire right in the middle of the garden but she ignored what they did to Electra and pretended that it didn't happen. She called some people to remove her before Aidan came out and saw.

Crystal sat in the passenger seat and the girls all sat at the back. Anthony drove them to Crystal's workplace first and picked up her assistant, then they went to the airport where Crystal's private jet was waiting. They all got out and Mariana gasped as she saw the plane that was waiting for them. It had Crystal's brand name in blue letters with three big diamonds at the end.

"Oh my gosh! We're going in a private jet!" Mariana exclaimed with joy as they got closer to it. Crystal was ahead talking to her assistant, with her waist-length, golden braids that swayed gracefully like a goddess. Her daughters were wearing matching Burberry skirts and white turtlenecks.

They climbed into the jet and Mariana rushed into the main area. The sunlight shone through the clear glass windows, making the room they just walked into a cave full of crystals. The walls had a strip of bronze that you can see your reflection. There were creams couches, single chairs, and some tables. It looked like you could live there.

"Finally, we're here." Crystal sighed out of exhaustion and sat on of the chairs. She took off her white heels while looking up at the ceiling. She called one of the flight attendants over to make her a milkshake while she stretched her feet.

Mariana sat opposite her and she continued to look around the inside. She saw something on the wall and in a gold frame, was all four of her children's faces when they were young, along with her and her's husband's face on each side. All of them had glimmering smiles on and their gorgeous faces.

"Aw so cute," she said.

Once Crystal got her strawberry milkshake, she was able to lay back and drink it in peace as the jet started with a loud rumbling sound. Mariana held onto her seat tightly as she could feel the bottom of her feet vibrate with the plane lifting off the ground.

"So Mariana, how are you feeling?" Crystal asked, with her thick eyelashes covering her half-closed eyes. Her head rested against a cushion and she felt so comfortable like she wanted to fall asleep.

"Um, good at the moment." She wasn't lying as she genuinely looked forward to going to Milan. It reminded her of when her family used to take yearly family trips to Italy to her mother's hometown for the summer, but that tradition got broken once her father got ill.

Crystal glanced at her with a look that said she wanted her to elaborate, but she was too tired for that so she asked for a blanket so that she could have a little nap. The flight attendant came round and wrapped a leopard print around her.

"Thanks," Crystal said, smiling up at them, and held it tightly in place.

Mariana watched her in silence. She still felt bad about being in this luxurious setting and what she said to Micah the other day. She didn't know why, but the way Crystal would look at her sometimes, made her think she knew secretly.

She started fidgeting uncomfortably in her seat, her hands felt sweaty and she felt that her cheeks were going red.

"Mariana, why do you look so uneasy?" Crystal asked, "Is something wrong? Are you hungry?" 

"No, I'm fine," Mariana said, but she could feel her sweat nervously trickling down her forehead.

"Okay, I just want you to be comfortable while you're with me. So if you want something, you can just ask, okay?"

"Thanks, Mom." She smiled, finally settling down as she snuggled into the couch.

"Aw!" Crystal said, smiling as she drank her milkshake when she heard Mariana's words.

When she fell asleep, Mariana went to sit next to Makayla and Mylah and they saw the pictures and videos of Electra running butt naked. Mariana laughed so hard, she felt her stomach go all inside as she clutched it. Her laugh went on that it changed from loud to airy, to no sound at all as she had a maniac smile on while she slapped the couch. She ended up falling onto the floor and rolled around.

"I'm gonna make a fake account and then pretend it's Electra and post them on Instagram," Makayla said with an evil grin, "Electra is a graphic designer right? Well, I hope her company sees this and she never gets employed again." She started frantically tapping her phone, editing the images a little to make it seem like Electra took them, and then going on Instagram to set everything up. "Because what goes on the Internet, stays on the internet." She smirked, tapping the post button.

"Oh that's so good, I'm so happy," Mariana said and started clapping joyfully.  She jumped onto the couch and then picked up a tablet that was on the table. She started playing games as this trip already had a good start now that Electra was dealt with, and the best part was she didn't even know yet!

Mariana started giggling like a kid while she and the girls started playing fruit ninja.

When they reached the inky skylines of Milan with mocha smoky clouds, Mariana peeked out the window, a smile of excitement stretched out her strawberry-painted lips as she looked down at the busy city. Its streets looked like they were coated with honey, as cars emitted their lights to the atmosphere. Mariana couldn't wait to finally be on the ground after being in the air for so long, but she couldn't wait for tomorrow when they could go exploring.

When the plane landed, Mariana ran out, waving her arms, as she shouted, "viva l'Italia!" while coming down the steps. She felt the warm suffocating heat slap her in the face, like entering a car that had been in the sun for too long.

Everyone else followed while someone got their bags. They called a taxi who took them to the hotel they would be staying at. They drove through the city, the small streetlights poked their little heads out, and the road seemed to glisten like water had been sprayed on it.

When they arrived, the place was called Dimora Milano Hotel and its building looked like a palace. It was a luxury hotel that had trees that stood like guards in front of it, with rows of grass underneath that had spots flashing neon blue. Its windows and its rooftop were illuminating beams of gold for all to see.

"Mama we are staying in here?" Makayla said, her head popping out the window, feeling the little, faint breeze that blew past.

"Yes, we are."

"Awesome!" Makayla said, sitting back down in her seat.

The taxi stopped them at the entrance and Crystal paid him. Together, they stood in front with their bags and stared up at it. Its million eyes stared back at them and into the unseen parts of the city.

"This is so cool..." Mylah murmured.

"Let's go see the inside and where we will be staying," Crystal said, holding onto their hands. Mariana held onto Mylah's as they went through the glass doors. They booked a hotel room which was on the 4th floor. They went up to thereby the elevator and when Crystal unlocked the door, Makayla and Mylah rushed in to explore.

It was quite spacious with a whirlpool bathtub that was closed off by a transparent black screen, a circular bed with some towels that were wrapped and packaged, and a desk with a TV attached to the wall. On the other side, there was a living room opposite with another TV with a couch and a shower that was in a corner and a door leading to another bedroom.

"I don't think I've ever been in a hotel room this big..." Mariana said as she sat down on the bed.

"Yeah, I love it!" Makayla said, sitting beside her. But she suddenly yawned and wiped her eyes. "But I'm feeling really tired now."

"How about we head to bed now and tomorrow, you girls can go explore the city a little bit?" Crystal suggested.

"Okay, goodnight mom." Makayla and Mylah hugged and she kissed both of them.

"Goodnight my babies," Crystal said before letting them go. She got up and spread her arms out toward Mariana like an angel. Mariana awkwardly stepped into the hug as it closed behind her.

"Goodnight Mariana." Crystal hugged her tightly and rubbed her back like how a mother does.

"Um, goodnight," Mariana said as she slowly slipped away. The hug felt good and it made her feel snug and warm like she had somewhere to run to in case she ever felt scared of something.

She went off into the other bedroom with Makayla and Mylah and started getting ready for bed.
