Chapter 9 Aunt amanda

zaids pov

after we left from there I was still puzzled as to how she could talk to her father like that

I know am not the only confused one as both Jacob and mom were silent as well

we got home and the sweet aroma of aunt Amanda's food filled my nostril

aunt Amanda is a genius when it comes to cooking, she is just the best

she was making the table when we walked in I went to hug her

we all sat at the dinning table and was having lunch,we were all silent through out lunch as we were all in deep thought as to what has happened recently

aunt Amanda seems to sense that something was wrong

she asked me and I was about to explain the entire situation to her when mom stopped me and told her she would do the explaining herself

mom started making up stories that never existed, stories about how humble and respectful hazel Kings was

Jacob and I were surprised but we said nothing

aunt Amanda listened to all mom had to say without saying a word it seems like she wasn't convinced with mom lies

actually am surprised cause aunt Amanda never concern herself with anything regarding business

I wonder why she was interested in this particular one

later that night I was on my way to my room when I saw aunt Amanda sneaking into mom's room

I guess she went out cause she is putting on a veil right now and the only time she wears a veil is when she goes out

I intended to eavesdrop on them but I saw sriste

she was sleep walking

seriously this girl

I went to her and took her to her bedroom before I returned to mom's room on getting there I saw that Amanda had returned to her room so I wasn't able to eavesdrop on their conversation

hazel was supposed to resume work tommorow according to Uncle James

but am not sure if she would be coming

she doesn't look like the type to follow orders

I really want to see her again, to know her better and perhaps be friends with her

she doesn't seem like the friendly type though

I just hope she comes

oh finally it's the morning I left home with Jacob

on getting to work I stepped out of the car

and there it is, the stares from all angles both male and female

seriously I rolled my eyes inwardly and was about to walk in when another car pulled up beside my car

it was almost like the owner of the car has plans to break my legs

a cute girl with blonde hair and out of the driver's seat she turned to the owner seat and opened the door

and there she was, Hazel, she was putting on a black pencil skirt and a white shirt with black jacket and silver heels

her hair was tied up in a tight ponytail and her expression was cold

she was walking towards me and Blondie was walking beside her

she came towards me and said hi

she extended her hand and I shook it

is this hazel King trying to be nice?

we walked into my office together and I showed her the desk which had been arranged

she mumbled a thank you and started working

hey, what's your name?

Uhm my name is"

before I could reply Naomi walked in
