Chapter 7
After that crying session in the kitchen with them, we have also started cooking and preparing what we will be going to eat later while we are already watching a movie.
There are already six medium sizes of stainless trays on the marble countertop that we will be using right after we finished cooking and preparing the popcorn, french fries, nachos, besuto prawn crackers, and homemade pork siomai and pizza.
There is a single task assigned to each and every one of us here in the kitchen. Marie will take care of the popcorn, Anne will take care of the french fries, Mary will take care of the nachos, Grace will take care of the homemade pizza, Anna will take care of the besuto prawn crackers, while I and Angel will take care of the homemade pork siomai.
This kitchen is so huge and h
Chapter 8 I cried as I walked away from Del Mundo's Mansion while I carried what I think was an expensive bag whose inside were the clothes I had just brought when I left Auntie Cecille's house. Before I left, I just knew that the ones who washed my clothes were Angel and her group and I already thanked all of them for that. Honestly, I do not know where I am going right now. I have no plans on going back to Auntie Cecille because she might hurt me again physically and with her words, or worse, she might kill me because of the intensity of her anger towards me. As I was walking down from the street, I was looking for my little pink wallet in the bag and when I have already seen it, I immediately opened it and I quickly felt sad when I already saw what was inside of it.
Chapter 9 I was suddenly woken up when I heard a small voice that seemed to be talking on the other side of where I am right now. I slowly opened my eyes and when I was able to do that completely, I was also able to hear well the voices that I had just heard vaguely earlier. "How is she, Doc?" Asked by a voice that came from a woman "She is doing good but she still needs a lot of rest right now, Doña Amanda. If ever that her fever still does not go down later this evening, I advise you to take her to the hospital right away." I heard those words from the voice of a man. "Okay, Doc. Thank you so much."
Chapter 10 I was just stoned on the bed where I am sitting while I was still staring at the handsome man. Even if he is in his side view from where I can see him, I really can still say that he is really a handsome one. I just kept on staring at him and I would not immediately be back into my senses if Doña Amanda had not spoken again which made me wake up from being mesmerized by the handsomeness of the man. "Franco, my handsome grandson, come here first, please. Someone wants to see and talk to you," Doña Amanda said happily that I can almost hear her giggling. The man that Doña Amanda called "Franco" seemed to hear what Doña Amanda said right away because he immediately moved on his seat by slowly closing the book that he was just reading and holding earlier.
Chapter 11"Where are you going, young lady?" He seriously asked as he was still looking at me blankly and while I am still holding the door handle.Young lady? Yes, I am still young but it is not my name. Why is he calling me young lady when he just already knew my name earlier? Did he immediately forget about it? I quickly felt sad and I do not know why.He is now wearing a branded navy blue t-shirt with gray sweat shorts paired with his black slippers that has a "Balenciaga" word attached to them.It looks like that he just took a bath because from where I was standing, I can immediately notice that her hair was still a bit wet. And his fragrant scent quickly lingered into my nose.Even though he was just wearing a simple clothes, I cannot deny the fact that he is still a very handsome man.I was not able to speak at first and I just kept my eyes on him, still unable to believe that he was really here right now i
Chapter 12"Let's exchange seats, Ruel," he seriously said while started walking towards me and Ruel's position while there was still his evil look on Ruel."Y-Yes, S-Sir." Ruel immediately said, stuttering.Ruel moved quickly and quickly got up from where he was sitting next to me and he almost fell just to get up so quickly in the seat that he had just been sitting on earlier.Ruel was already carrying his plate with food as he walked towards Sir Franco's chair that Sir Franco was just sitting in earlier. And I could see Ruel's nervousness on his face and even his already paled face right now.While Sir Franco quickly sat down in the chair next to me as if nothing had happened. And his dark aura was still there as well as his gritted teeth as he sat.We all just watched his movements as we were all stunned by what he did. Even Mother Nineth and Doña Amanda were also suddenly stopped from their eating because of the
Chapter 13Silence quickly enveloped the whole entire living area after Doña Amanda said to me those words.I remained startled and stoned in my seat while Doña Amanda and I are staring at each other now.I could not move and speak and I also did not know what to say.S-She wants to adopt me? But why?"Andra, I know that the timing of my questions on you right now is so wrong because you are not yet feeling well but I cannot take another day anymore thinking that maybe just right after you recovered from your fever, you might leave again and maybe something bad might happen to you again," she worriedly said. "We are all already fond of you here Andra so we cannot control ourselves to be not be bothered once you leave again and once we just let you live outside alone."We do not want to see you struggling anymore to the point that when we see you again drenched by the rain and lying unconscious on the m
Chapter 14"Andra, where are you?" I heard Doña Amanda shout from the outside of the kitchen."I am here inside the kitchen, Ma'am Amanda!" I answered as I am turning off the high-tech dishwasher switch."Okay, come in the living when you are already done with what you are doing, Andra. I have something for you! I will wait for you there!" she excitedly said and little by little, I heard her footsteps moving away from the kitchen.I smiled quickly and shook my head as I wiped my wet hands on the apron that I am wearing right now.Suddenly I was also excited because of what Doña Amanda said.She has something for me again? I immediately kept thinking. What would it be this time?When my hands are finally dry, I immediately took off the brown apron from me, and at the same time, I brought it back to hang it again on the wall.I was about to leave when Angel called me when she suddenly enter
Chapter 15It's Sir Franco..."Good morning, Sir," we quickly said as we got up from our seats the moment he entered the room while I am still shocked from seeing him here.He is a teacher?! Oh my gosh! The people in the mansion did not inform me about this especially Angel! Ugh!After the incident on the stairs, he does not really pay attention to me anymore or even just looks at me, and just ignored me every time we are seeing each other inside the mansion that is why after days of trying to talk to him in the past weeks, I have decided to just finally ignore him also like what he is doing to me."Good morning. You can take your seats now," he smilingly answered after he positioned himself at the back of his chair in front.From where I was sitting, I could clearly see how beautiful, even, and color white his teeth were.He quickly tours around his eyes in the entire room while still smiling and wh
