“ Wow!” She washed her face with the water and looked at herself in the mirror. “ They felt pity for me just by acting this way? Oh My God, This feels so Good.

Mara Entered the room, Vanessa was pacing around the room Angrily. She sat down on the bed when Mara entered.
“ Mummy, are you alright?” Mara asked Sitting down beside her. “ I don’t like her, I don’t even know why she would come here” Vanessa said angrily. “ But she came here to tell you what she did to us and she also apologized” Mara said and Vanessa Chuckled. “ Are you taking her side now?” She asked. “ No Mummy, I don’t like her but I feel so sorry for her” Mara said innocently. “ Baby, you don’t What she’s trying to do. I have a feeling she isn’t telling the truth and even if she told the truth, I know she’s trying to do something here. Go tell Uncle Derek to send her out of the house” She said and Mara smiled. “ I don’t think she’s trying to do something bad, She regretted what she did and she want you to forgive her too. I’ve already forgiven her” Vanessa was surprised.
“ Are you serious right now? You forgave her? Why?” She asked surprisingly. “ Because she was crying and it was from her heart” Mara said. “ Baby, you are still a kid and you don’t know everything. Where’s Uncle Derek?” She asked “ He’s in the kitchen making Noodles for us, Aunt Mandy said she’s Hungry” Mara said and Vanessa Chuckled. “ I don’t want to see her” She lay down on the bed and faces the other side. “ Aren’t you going to eat? You said you were Hungry” Mara said and Vanessa nodded her head. “ I’m not hungry again” She closed her eyes and Mara left the room.
As Mara was coming out from the room, Mandy also came out of Derek’s room.
“ Hey Baby” She waved to Mara “ Aunt Mandy” Mara went to her. “ Food is ready” Derek said and they both went to the dining table.

“ I wonder what Mandy is still doing in that house” Mandy’s Daddy said as he arrived at Grandma’s house. He Came down from the car and Entered inside the house. Grandma Wasn’t at Home when he went there, only the maid was at home. “ Where’s Mum?” He asked her after she had greeted him. “ She Said she was visiting a friend next door” She said and he Chuckled. “ Why didn’t you go with her?” He asked her. “ She said I should stay home , she can go anywhere she want by herself” He sighed. “ Okay then, I’ll get going now. Tell her I stopped by when she returned” He said and left the house.
“ Thank Goodness she isn’t at Home, I don’t know what to tell her about Vanessa and she warned me not to return if she didn’t take the cheque from me. Only Mandy can take me out of this mess from Mum, I pray that girl help me” He sighed deeply.
Few minutes later, Mandy arrived at Grandma’s house. She met Grandma Entering the house when she arrived.
“ If this isn’t my favorite Grandchild, Mandy” Grandma smiled. “ Hey Grandma” Mandy hugged her. “ What’s wrong, why are you in uniform today and why is your face looking like this?” Grandma asked touching Mandy’s face. “ It’s not a uniform, Grandma. This is the latest trend and I’m fine. Wow Look at my Grandma, You look so young and beautiful” Mandy teased her by touching her face. “ Come on baby, Stop teasing me” She said and Mandy laughed. “ Where are you coming from?” She asked “ From a friend’s house down the street” Grandma said and Mandy nodded her head.
“ I love this location, should I move in?” Mandy asked and Grandma’s face brightened up. “ Of course yes, that’s why I love you. Everyone keep saying I should move out from this location but you are the only one that sees the Goodness in it” Grandma said smiling. “ Who said that? My Dad is included right?” She asked and Grandma nodded her head. “ I knew it, Daddy doesn’t Know what it means to live in a place you so much love and Reminds you of Nature. Let’s Go in Grandma, it’s Hot out here” Mandy Held Grandma’s arm and they went inside the house.
The maid had just finished cooking when they Arrived, She greeted them and served the food.
“ What brought you here by this time of the day?” Grandma asked and Mandy raised up her head. “ I’ve missed my Grandma that’s why came to see her” She said smiling. “ That’s Good. And where’s your Dad? I gave him a task to do for me” She said and Mandy sighed. “ Grandma, Daddy told me what it is and I don’t like it” Mandy said sadly. “ Why?” She asked. “ I think you should just allow Vanessa and her daughter be since they are out of Alfred’s life” She said and Grandma dropped her fork on the Plate.
“ Is this my Mandy or someone else?” Grandma asked and Mandy sighed. “ It’s still me, Grandma. It’s just that I.. I’m not happy about all this. She didn’t accept the first cheque from Daddy and she didn’t accept the second cheque either. Don’t you think Vanessa would start loving Alfred now that you are forcing her to accept the money and leave the City? That’s what girls her type Normally do.” Mandy said and Grandma nodded her head.
