"I found you!"Stella said excitedly after finding William behind the couch "Yet! we won" said Davin. "Whatever lets go " William said annoyed that he lost.
"Child it's time for lunch"Guand called out .She was a maid but Stella considered her like a mom.
But when Stella's dad came back he had 'guests' "Dad who's this?"she was afraid to accept what came next.
"Hi, I'm Amy your new mom and this is Tory your step sister"
Ever since Stella's mom died she had been worried this would happen especially after watching Cinderella. She immediately ran to her room and her dad followed after her.
"Stella open the door"her dad called out but all he could hear was sobbing "I'm coming in." Stella was holding their family photo
"I don't want a new mom"she declared wiping her tears away
"I understand how you f..."
"NO! you don't!"
"Just be them a chance "with that he left.
The following day Stella decided to give them a chance at first they were nice and relatively good pple,she even became friends with Tory.
"Tory! How are you" she said while coming down for breakfast.
"So I don't get greeted"
"Hi dad" She said she glanced at Amy even if it was just for a second the devilish smile on her face was evident.
"Dad Stella stole my bracelet"said Tory lifting my hand for proof.
"What are you talking about?"Stella said standing up abruptly she felt bad as she was being falsely accused she turned to her dad thinking he would defend her."Dad"she said her voice cracking as she was holding in her tears."well you did want a new bracelet"said Mike (Stella's dad) siding with Tory
"But she gave me this"Immediately she said this Amy stood up and began defending Tory "I saw you entering her room"
"B-b-but that was because I was helping her fetch her book "she said choking in her tears "That's enough" Mike slammed his spoon on the table
"Stella this should be the last I hear of this"
Guand who had been watching from the sidelines knew Stella was not to be blamed she tried to defend Stella
"But sir child is innocent"
She said siding with Stella but with a glance from Mike she shut up,she needed this job after all
Stella ran away crying into the forest to a treehouse that no one (except her now dead mom)knew about after all it was their little secret. She suddenly heard someone shout
"Who is crying?"
"I'm coming up"
Scared Stella hid behind the couch just the she could hear the door being opened she peaked to see who it was and to her suprise it was Davin.
She came out of her hiding spot and asked
"Davin how did you find this place"
"I have good eyes" he said not intending to explain any further he looked at her face then wiped her tears "why are you crying?"
She told him everything "What the did that!"he was angry both at them and at himself,he wasn't there to defend her "let it all out ,I know you feel betrayed" She began crying on Davin's shoulder by the time she was done crying she began wondering how Davin found this place. Since it had a peculiar design that made it blend in with the other trees 'Is he even human?'she wondered
