Chapter 23: Chapter 23

Abeer and Scarlett were enjoying their favourite chocolate ice cream in the corner when a lady in her fifties with shades of white hair and wearing a large spectacles covering her half face, Mrs. Briganza, nanny of Scarlett appeared out of nowhere with a scary face.

"Oh! Scarlett Baby.. You scared the shit out of me. Why did you disappear from my eyes without informing me? You said you were coming in two minutes after using the washroom and you disappeared scaring the shit out of me. I was searching for you all the time. I was calling on your mobile phone continuously but you did not pick up it for once.", Mrs. Briganza complained looking at Scarlett who was busy enjoying her ice-cream.

" Umm.. Actually I was wandering here and there after forgetting the correct direction but then Abeer came as an angel helping me out and he treated me with my favourite chocolate ice-cream when I told him that I was feeling hungry.", Scarlett replied licking her icecream and Abeer chuckled at the boldness of Scarlett and how she was lying without any fear on her face.

Scarlett mentioning Abeer in her statement made Mrs. Briganza realised the presence of Abeer there who was busy looking at both of them with an amused expression on his face.

"Oops! I am so sorry. I did not notice your presence here. And by the way thank you so much for helping out my Scarlett baby otherwise, I might have lost her here and my job too. ", Mrs. Briganza thanked Abeer smiling at him.

"No need of thanks Ma'am actually after finishing this ice-cream I was coming to you with her as I knew that the person who took her here might be searching for her being worried.", Abeer told trying to handle the situation in their favour.

"Oh don't call me Ma'am young boy.. I'm not your Boss. Call me Mrs. Briganza. I'm Scarlett's nanny actually. She insisted to come here and join this get together so I came along with her but she just disappeared making my breath uneven for once as her parents had strictly warned me to look after her carefully as she was really naughty girl since her childhood and now after spending my two years of my life with her I can say she is really a very naughty girl. Now I can understand why her parents always get worry when it comes to her. ", Mrs. Briganza complained looking at Scarlett who was giggling looking at Abeer.

" It's okay Mrs. Briganza. Don't worry she is perfectly fine now. You should take her home now. ", Abeer said smilingly.

" If you don't mind, May I ask have you met with any accident as there are so many bandages on your body.", Mrs. Briganza asked inspecting Abeer from head to toe.

" Umm.. Actually Yes.. Recently I met with a deadly accident that led me to this condition. But don't worry I'll be alright soon as now I have a new friend in my life who is not less than an angel for me, Scarlett who will help me in healing soon.", Abeer confessed looking at Scarlett who was smiling back at him.

" You know gentleman, there is need of more people like you in this world who help others without any benefits. And Scarlett you should not call him by his name. He is elder to you. You should call him your big brother or in your style big bro.", Mrs. Briganza said putting her hands on Scarlett's shoulder.

" Brother... Noway... He is not my brother and I am not going to call her my brother. Never even in my dreams.",Scarlett screamed at the top of her lungs making her nanny flinched at her place in fear.

"Why dear? What's wrong in calling him as your brother?", Mrs. Briganza asked being surprised at Scarlett's sudden change of behaviour.

"Because I already have one sister at home and she is really annoying. I don't want to increase one more in that line.",Scarlett replied expressing her disappointment.

Abeer was smiling and enjoying the conversation between Mrs. Briganza and his new smart girlfriend. At first, he was stunned with this cute girl as she was the perfect example of 'Beauty with Brain'. It's only she was small just by age not by brain. And the way she was handling Mrs. Briganza's every question was not something ordinary too. She has that skill in her blood that's why her confidence level is really high.

"Okay okay Baby don't make a sad face now. Call him whatever you want. I only want to see you happy baby. That's it.", Mrs. Briganza told smiling at Scarlett.

"Thank you Nanny. Now you go to the car. I am coming in just five minutes. I have to talk with Abeer about something personal.", Scarlett declared staring back at Abeer making him flinched at his position because of the way she was staring him angrily.

"Okay baby as you say. But please baby this time don't do anything naughty and come back to your car straight after talking to him.", Mrs. Briganza told and left the alone for a while.

" Hey! Mr. Boyfriend Ain't you enjoying too much at your girlfriend's situation?", Scarlett complained putting her both hands on her hips.

" Oops! I AM SO SORRY Munchkin. I was just adoring my girlfriend's intelligence. I'm not laughing at you.", Abeer apologised showing his fake expressions of scaring from her like a little baby got scared of his mother's angry voice.

"Umm..it's okay. Now I'm going otherwise Nanny will come here again searching for me. But you don't forget to call me whenever you became free as I would be waiting for your call as soon as I reach my home. Take care of yourself and your health.", Scarlett said showing her concerns towards him and before leaving she gave a flying kiss at him which Abeer caught in the air and winked at her smilingly.

" Thanks Munchkin you actually proved to be an angel for me by gifting this mobile which I really needed right now to contact Luca. I would be grateful to you forever and whenever you need me I will be there for you.", Abeer mumbled staring at the mobile phone gifted by his girlfriend.
