Chapter 52
Stacey was smiling until she heard her mother’s question she couldn’t help but roll her eyes she was angry with her stupid questions always
and say, “mum can’t I just be happy if the matter is not related to Jake and to answer your question no he has not proposed to me okay so
kindly leave me in peace”. Her grandmother called her, “Stacey!!, is that the way you talk to your mother, where are the manors we taught
you”, she replied, “exactly grandma she’s my mother not yours so I can talk to her the way I want and you never taught me how to behave so
kindly don’t start now it’s too, anyway I’m going to take a rest I had a long day you destroyed my happiness”.
With that she went to her room leaving everyone in the room shocked they could not believe Stacey can answer back to the old lady like that.
Stellah on the hand was so happy seeing Stacey becoming the old woman’s enemy she knew how she does her thing, she put on the obedient
daughter/granddaughter faced as said, “grandma let her be may she hard a stressful day she will come around by tomorrow”.
“Don’t take it to your heart, it’s nothing”. Jane, Stacey’s said, “Stellah can you stop pretending I know you are happy to see your cousin
behaving rudely, I know you want to still my daughter’s place”. Melinda Stellah’s mum who usually keeps quite said, “Jane don’t you think
you have crossed the boundary I’m not Matilda who will sit and see her daughter and husband humiliated I’m not a nice person and we both
know that so don’t make me your enemy leave my daughter alone it’s not her fault that you can’t put manor in her so my dear sister in law
don’t make angry if you make my daughter cry or insult her I will make sure you and your daughter leave to regret having met me”.
After that she excused herself and took her daughter who was crying up, old man just shook his head to show his disappoint, he felt so weak,
these past weeks since Andrew left, they have never had peace. It was as if Andrew and his family were the source of their happiness. He has
to make sure Andrew comes back before the remaing peace in the family gets destroyed, even if it met to kneel and apologize to his stupid
wife and daughter.
He remembered Sandra’s words, “when we leave here even if you beg us we will not come back, it will be too late for you”. He wondered to
himself, “did she know Levy’s status that’s why she agreed to marry him without second thought”, but he wondered how could that be
possible she’s nothing then how come she can know something like that unless there’s more to know that what he sees.
His private investigator gave the same information he got the first time she returned to the smith family, he did not believe it but he had no
way to prove his intuition. He went to his bed thinking of everything that hard happen to the smith family.
When the old woman came, she saw her husband lost in his thought, she came closer to him and asked, “what are you thinking of don’t take
what happened down seriously they will come around, we are family after all”.
Old man asked her, “do you think this is karma we are paying for our sins for treating Andrew and his family like slaves and servants, do you
think the reason our children and grandchildren are like this because of ki…..”, “stop, stop, stop, let the past lay no one knows it no one will
ever know now sleep I don’t want to hear this again”.
Old man just sigh he does know why but he felt that there is something bad going to happen it will change everything in this family, he felt it
he didn’t know why. He prayed in his heart for the past to remain uncovered little did he know that it was already out their waiting to be
discovered and very soon very soon it will be in the open and when that happens not even God will save them.
The next day Sandra arrived at school seeing everyone looking at her with disgust in their eyes, she didn’t take to heart since she knew very
few students liked her, she didn’t care since she was not there to make friend and she was not good at entertaining people. She continued to
walk until she reached her lecture room, seeing her entering without worry Deborah and Natasha couldn’t stop themselves from making a sigh
they told themselves, “indeed Sandra is different from them even when the student are throwing disgust towards her she acted as if everything
is fine”.
Seeing Natasha, Deborah and her classmate look at her as if they have seen a ghost she walked to her table and asked Deborah, “what
happened why everyone is looking at me as if they have seen a ghost or someone not worth being in the society”. Hearing her question
Deborah asked her how many times do you use your phone or look at it”.
She replied, “I’m a busy person Deborah I usually don’t have time to look at my phone”. “now you tell me what happened” hearing her reply
her classmates, Natasha and Deborah didn’t know if they should cry or laugh at her.
Who on earth in this twenty first century would not care about social media indeed her indifference to earthly things and approach to it was
different. “Deborah said there’s a video of you entering my brother’s car yesterday posted on the school forum”. She laughed at her and said
then why do you all look like you have lost someone, that my husband soon or later people will know the earlier they his mine the better. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
Deborah resisted the argue to roll her eyes, she said, “if that was the case will I be looking like this or will the whole school look at you like
that?”
