A few days had passed becoming the weekend, and it was early Saturday morning, where the first thing Iosefina would do was daily chores such as Laundry, Breakfast, Vaccuming, Mopping, and well anything else after that

So as Iosefina once again woke up at 7am she turns to the curtains opening them allowing the blissful sun to shine on her and within her room, as it lightened up her body and room she thought to herself saying ("Why do I keep having these strange dreams?") She pondered

As a quick flash of the unknown element appeared with an unknown figure trying to exit or free themselves, she was unsure but this dream was starting to haunt her for the past month, and of course she had not confess to either her family or friends about this matter

As she believes that this is something she could handle by herself, much like the problems they all face themselves, so she of course ignored help, because she felt that this was also something that they could not help, advise, or well anything at all related to her strange dreams that almost seemed like a nightmare in the end

But finishing up the breakfast which was bacon, scrambled and fried eggs, toast, sausages, pancakes, and juice was about to done it at least under an hour which is why she started with the laundry first and other small jobs before making breakfast

Finishing up the last touches in making a casual Saturday breakfast the first to rush down the stairs through a hallway screaming at the top of their lungs"BREAKFAST!" Was none other than the energetic twin sister Maya Parata who had Pitch black raven hair with a lighter shade of chocolate eyes, light twany brown skin

Wearing a full set of Marvel Pyjama's with a shirt and pair of sweatpants, and warm toast socks, with her hair in a messy bun something that was the opposite to Iosefina's appearance being legginings, a red long-sleeved shirt, white socks, apron, and with her hair in a plait

Of course the appearance differences was due to their time schedules, as such this is to be expected, but back to the day as Maya took her seat at the family table, which was the seat from the King chair on his left the furtherest seat

When she claimed her seat she greeted her elder sister "Morning!" In return Iosefina replied "Morning chump, how's life?" In reply gaining a yawn and smug look Maya answered casually

"Oh y'know checking updates on Tik tok, then trying to sleep but then smelt bacon so~" Cheekily Maya tried to reach for a piece of bacon but within instinct Iosefina slapped her hand with a wooden spoon giving a loud smacking sound which resulted to Maya giving a whimpering pained sound

Meanwhile Iosefina gave a ticked off expression telling her 'No' and it was confirmed when she told her "Did you wash your hands?" She asked with a stern tone in which Maya cowarded away from in fear of her wrath

Slowly shuffling away running to the bathroom, Iosefina heard the tap running with a small slip of soap falling within the sink hearing a 'Dammit' response to it before the tap ran for a little while longer, shortly after more shuffling was heard, a towel was being shaken and finally the door was open wide

Allowing Maya to run down back to her spot and along her way she called out "Mornin' Jason" Before she returned to her seat without problems, when she did with a smile upon her face Iosefina gave a nod of approval when Maya held her hands out

Before she looked towards the hallway/dining room entrance where her Emo-dressed brother entered with a fluffed up messy hairstyle with some tied in a ponytail, black loose PJ pants, a black shirt and slippers, and thankfully to Sefina clean hands

He greeted everyone with a wide loud yawn before speaking softly in a tired or rather exhausted dead tone "Mo-o-r-nin-ng" He told in small pauses trying to regain conciousness while being present at breakfast

Whiledoing so Maya held in a muffle of sounds of her fits of laughter to her brother's appearance and mood, while Sefina could only laugh before another figure appeared in the room, her father who was wearing surprisingly a onesie

Of course everyone would suspect he wouldn't wear such a strange thing, but at home he didn't have a care in the world, and he enjoyed his moments of freedom at home, but even so as soon as he took his seat

Sefina placed the dishes aside for later bring everyone their hot chocolate drinks to the table as she greeted her father while placing his cup of tea he responded "Thank you Sefina, twins morning"

From there as everyone was prepped and ready, everyone took their seat with Jason taking his spot next to his twin sister, and Sefina opposite to him, when everyone took their seat with two being empty the reason being was that long ago they had 6 members

But to whom was of course Jessica their mother, and their brother who went missing when she was 7, and no one had found any clue or evidence to where he was, the only memory she had of him was when he told her "You'll understand . . . one day"

And those were the last words she ever heard from him, but to this day she was still unsure to what he was implying, and though there were little pictures for her to remember his appearance, her father had his past picture of when the twin were infants

He had the same tawny brown skin but a slighter darker shade, he had the same eye colour as the twins, short black hair with a thin beard on his jawline, and carrying on after everyone was seated everyone glanced around before the 'KING' as their dad liked to be titled called out

"Maya, thank you" Which she lightly groaned before giving in and started to say the Karakia in other terms Prayer

"E rongo, E rongo "

"Homai nga tipu"

"Hei whakakii te tinana"

"Hei oranga"

"Au eke, Au eke"

"Huia taiki e"

With that out of the way everyone opened their eyes before they began to devour some breakfast, and of course it was silent after a moment or two, and then conversations rose with what everyone was going to do throughout the day

And in short Jason replied "Eh probably hang out with some of the others" He paused as his father spoke congratulating him saying "That's ni-" But was rudely interupted when Jason added

"Or just go on the play station and play Fortnite" With this answer Iosefina glared lightly which Jason returned before losing when she seeemed like she was near smashing his face with a frying pan

But lowering his defences Maya then spoke saying "I'll probably just stay home with dad, and do some chores . . . since apparently it's my day" She muttered the last bit in annoyance as everyone had a certain week to do the house chores as Iosefina had always done them . . . by herself

Laughing lightly Aaron turned to his second eldest, as he could or rather would not forget that he had an eldest, and this was something that very few outside their household were aware of, for the truth was that it became to much of a heartache for him

And he knew it was the same for Iosefina who felt or rather looked from his opinion as if she was missing an entire part of herself, though she had a strength to help her siblings Aaron knew she felt different or off

And saw she tried to hide it but this trick was so similar to someone he knew long ago . . . but that story is for another time

Iosefina told aloud in a tone that would make them believe her that even convinced her worried father from his thoughts but for a moment as she replied "Well . . . I'll just be hanging out with the gang and all, probably a walk near the train track near the fields"

She told in detail to her whereabouts as she would usually spend her time with her friends walking around the neighbourhood or further down the housing areas around the woods or railway for a heads up

Aaron Parata nodded lightly on the location and with that told everyone "Good, nice to know that some of you are productive" He glanced over to his youngest children with a blank expression before taking a sip of his hot drink to erase the headache he felt when his youngest were always for most of the times inside than outside

Of course in response the twins pouted while Iosefina could only laugh, before she paused turning to the clock showing it was 10:39am and she was to meet her friends at quarter past 11, so with a quick step she told with a rushed tone

"Oh I gotta get ready!" She said as she grasped her dishes rushing towards the sink rinsing them quickly with the heated hot water before placing them on the bench, untying her apron placing it quickly onto the hook

She rushed down the hallway up the staircase towards her room shutting the door leaving her family to do the rest of the certain needs within the Kitchen and the house, as Sefina rushed to her draws throwing her clothes at random places she reached in her draws grabbing out a pair of sky blue jeans that had a few rips near the knee and below

A bright red shirt that was identical to Gryffindor's falming red colour, a light brown cropped jacket with a collar, a few pockets on the sides and a pocket over the left side of her breast, with a white cap, and black sneakers her look was complete

When changed she rushed down the staircase but before she made it half way she remembered she left vital things she needed which was

1. Her Phone

2. Her bag

3. Her wallet

4. And her secret stash of snacks

Now rushing back to her room she had collected the items with haste, and before she rushed out the door, she passed her family with her casual farewell saying to the twins "Cya chumps!" Who responded with a 'Meh' or 'Cya'

And when she came towards her father she gave a simple peck on the cheek and hug rushing out with a goodbye saying "Bye Dad I aroha you!" With that said her father told her with a simple smile plastered on his face

"Love you too Sefina, be safe, and remember be home by 5!" With a final wave she left through the door to meet up with her best friends who would wait for her at the park

But in doing so Aaron again felt something amiss, something far from her daughter, something that related to someone he thought he would never have the chance to see again, and like god, a voice was heard in his head telling him something that no one else could hear

And this would include to large span explanation to many people . . . especially his daughter

~Meanwhile with the Gang~

Sefina had arrived to the park when she caught up with the Young twins who caused mischief along the way as usual, and truth be told she would refer to them as the 'Weasley Twins' that were Asian and Russian, and not red heads

Upon their arrival Jane and James were talking, Louis, Evans and Zackry were watching how Akane and Lucy were trying to help a kid who was crying from a scratch when they apparently scrapped their knee

WIthout a second thought Sefina on instinct rushed towards the child giving the required needs to assess when a child is hurt, but the strange thing is she felt . . . empty, whenever she helped someone it wasn't for approval or any gain it felt like a string or a pull to something or somewhere

That she was clueless to what or why she felt such a pull that made her heart beat faster and faster to the source, but try as she might she pushes those thoughts away so she can focus on what is needed of her . . . not what she wants

But after that entire ordeal the child had insinctly clinged onto Iosefina, which at first surprised Sefina until her face morphed into a sympathetic expression, as the embrace she felt from the boy was one of desperation, one of want, someone who wants love

With empathy she returned the embrace and whispered softly to him "Shh it's okay . . . it's alright, no one will hurt you" With her words the child cried more and more against the crook of her neck

At the cries everyone surrounding her became worried until a booming voice was heard saying "ALEX! WHERE ARE YOU!" At the voice the childre trembled within her arms meaning that whoever was calling him was their 'Guardian'

When Sefina hid the 5 or 6-year-old closer to her she and her firends turned the source finding a mid 30-year-old man dressed in a tartan patterned button shirt that was untucked from his brown jean loose pants held up by a belt, he look to be a drunk, and all of them could understand why the child was afraid

Because his Guardian was a drunk that released his anger on his own child who was only 5 or so, and that was enough to boil their rage of treatment towards such an innocent child, when the cold black irises caught side of the boy's hair

Sefina swore she saw a vein pop up and knew that the man's anger had risen, and without a care or fear of the group of teens he approached them saying directly to Alex "Alex . . . come here" He paused awaiting for the child to obey

But in fear and spite of the man the boy clutched tighter to Sefina who whispered words of encouragement, and getting more and more impatient he shouted "NOW!" In fear of angering his father more he begged Sefina in a hushed tone

"Please . . . let me go . . . h-he will hurt you" He implied in fear of his safety, with a stern decision she turned to Akane who was next to their digital freak giving a glance to do a simple task which she understood perfectly turning to her brother giving a nod in which he reacted by doing a secret move that would hopefully help the boy in his favour

In further use for their plan Sefina tapped her foot twice not gaining the infurious adult's attention and from there everyone was prepared on what was to happen next, and so the man repeated "Alex . . . don't make me repeat myself young man" He told in a venomous tone

Of course Alex begged to be released but in response Sefina held him close giving a cold piercing glare towards the so called guardian and told aloud "I do believe it is healthy for a child to play in the day . . . sir" She stated with light anger that was a portion of her wrath

But of course the man was oblivious to her threatning tone and carried on accordingly to their expectations as he cursed the child saying "Yes but it IS manditory for a child to listen to HIS FATHER!" He sworn aloud

And before any of the gang could mutter a word he carried on speaking saying "And if you don't move this instant Alex . . . think of the consequences, understood boy!" He told with an evil grin plastered on his face with satisfaction

He continued to dig his grave as the gang formed a protection formation blocking the father from the boy, and though Alex wanted to rush back Sefina's comforting words telling him that all of this would work kept him to stay with them

And the final thing that concluded the blackmail was when he said "You all have no right to interfere, as his father I can harm him however I want, when I want . . . and you brats can't prrotect him from the punishment he'll recieve when he-" Before he could finish Zackry held his phone out and replayed the last bit

"You all have no right to interfere, as his father I can harm him however I want, when I want . . . and you brats can't protect him from the punishment he'll recieve when he-" Ending the recording the smirk upon his face left his face as it morphed into disbelief

And for the final say Sefina told him "Would you like to repeat that sir . . . because I believe the law would love to hear what else you have to say for your . . . actions" He told grinning alongside her friends who gave an expression of victory with a smirk

With that the father was about to leave but Evans, the Young brothers held him down, while James called the Police department calling in a 'Child abuser' and when the event came to an end the child looked up to Sefina feeling warmth and comfort rush over him

And it was for the first time in Alex's life, he felt . . . a genuine bond . . . in other words love
