Chapter 5 : What happened, is happening and will happen?
"Thank you Sir and Ma'am for making sure I was fine but I'm sorry, I work here to earn a living for my family and help my sick mother and what happened yesterday is something I can't just overlook. I quit," Sally tried to say it in a manner that would not sound rude.
"So sorry your life was endangered, we're still friends aren't we? Parker apologised to Sally the way he could do best and also gave her a credit card of his.
"Sure, thanks so much Mr. Wen, Sally replied formally "Noooo, Parker corrected "Sorry, thanks so much Parker, Sally said realising her mistake There were laughs and hugs and then Sally left the house, Mr Wen went upstairs like nothing happened
"I'm famished, whats for breakfast or are we going on a day hungerstrike/fast? Cree tried to lighten up everyone's mood.
AUTHORS P.O.V.
It was so strange that an affluential family like theirs were saddened over the departure of an ordinary servant. It looks like Sally really earned her way up to their hearts but some were more concerned that her resignation would be a big stain on their reputation as they usually fire servants and not the other way round especially when her resignation was as a result of a fault from them.
"Where's Juliana", Mrs. Wen inquired "Who cares, let's just eat!", Cree angrily answered The beef between these sisters had being going on since they were kids. "Why are you both so mean to each other? Mrs Wen probed Before Cree could talk, Juliana came downstairs and started the narration
" It was fourteen years ago and I was seven years old. I had been preparing for the kids pageant competition since I was three. I had developed a cool singing and dance routine for the talent show section and I was killing it at ramp walking and answering questions. But unfortunately, Cree spilled hair oil on the floor and I tripped and dislocated a bone. This idiot decided to make up for her mistake by replacing me, I didn't like the idea at first but mum told me everything was gonna be alright. But no it wasn't fine, not at all; I ended up teaching Cree all she needed to know even myyyy special routine. At the end Cree came in first, she was congratulated, given gifts by dad for boosting our family's name but me what about me? the one who taught her all including the dance moves I created and was looking forward to perform, I was long forgotten no one acknowledged me and to make it worse the horrible man I'm forced to call dad said it was for the best that I sprained my ankle and that it's possible for me to have lost as I'm less beautiful compared to Cree. And this bimbo supported his view instead of feeling remorseful for the accident she caused in the first place and thankful that all because of me, she won her very first pageant show. And as the villain in every story, Dad made me teach her more until she was twelve and could learn without help. In conclusion, about ten of the first ever competions Cree won is thanks to me and me alone. But she is still hellbent on proving she's better than me, and I'm not gonna sit on my hands either. Thank you"
Juliana turned around to see she was talking to a set of chairs and a table
" SERIOUSLY, Juliana screamed Mr Wen heard Juliana's scream on his way downstairs "What happened, who are you screaming at and what for?", Mr Wen questioned. " I HATE YOU", Juliana screamed at him and left the house. " That was weird", Mr. Wen said looking confused.
Juliana bumped into Brian on her way out. They both felt really weird "Are you going in?" Juliana asked Brian " Yes, I want to talk to your dad about the marriage proposal" Brian replied " Oh, sure, go in. I'm not stopping you, Juliana said.
Brian went in and Juliana sat on a couch in the compound of her house as she had nowhere to go but had just left the house in anger.
Juliana thought" Maybe,he wants to cancel the marriage,that will teach Cree a lesson. Juliana stared at her phoned, her mouth opened wide and the words heard from them were O.M.G.........................................................
