CHAPTER FIFTY-FOUR
**BRIANNA** I exined everything to my mom and Marianna and they were surprised, they were especially shocked at the part where I told them that he asked me to be his date to a g. I told them that I’ll be his date but excluded the part where he’ll pay me for my services.
“Wow, I like your boss. He’s so nice.” Marianna gushed and I rolled my eyes.
“He’s not nice, he’s crazy.” I said simply.
“Shush, you don’t talk about somebody that did you a favor that way.” Mum scolded and I grumbled underneath my breath. If only they knew how he acts.
“He’s the one that dropped you off, right? I heard the sound of a car.” Mom quizzed with curiosity evident in her voice.N?velDrama.Org owns all content.
“Yeah, he’s the one.” I nodded.
“I knew it. And you’re telling me that he’s not nice, he’s the perfect definition of a gentleman.” Mom grinned.
“Oh mom, if only you know how he really is. I’m the one that has to deal with him every day so I know how he truly behaves.” I uttered, already tired of them praising my annoying boss.
“Enough of talking about him already. Let’s talk about another thing.” I sighed in exhaustion.
“The things that you and mom have been talking about are of no concern to me. My own concern is that I’ll take some out of your clothes, Brianna. I don’t care if they’re bigger than me, even though I know that they won’t be too big one me.” Marianna said with a mischievous smile.
“Just because we have simr body shape doesn’t mean that you can wear my clothes. I’ll break your head if I see your hands on those clothes.” I red yfully at her but she didn’t take me seriously because she knew that I was joking.
“You obviously can’t break my head. And I’ll take the clothes tomorrow, when you’re not at home. If you find any of the clothes missing, just have it in mind that I’m the thief. I might steal some shoes and makeup too.” She said with an impish glint in her eyes and I didn’t know when a loudughter rumbled from deep within my belly.
“Just tell me that you want to steal every single thing in the bag.” I said, stillughing at her disy of silliness.
“If I am given the permission to take everything, I will dly take them.”
“Do you even need permission to steal again?” I asked, staring at her in beguilement.
“Oh right, I don’t need to ask you before I take them. Mu ha ha ha.” She did the viinousugh thingy and grinned like the viins that we see in movies and I couldn’t stop myself from bursting into a hystericalughter, mom who was silently watching the disy between us also startedughing.
“You’re cracking me up so bad, Marie. My ribs are hurting at this rate.” I chortled noisily.
“I better stop then; I don’t want to be the reason you end up in the hospital with broken ribs.” She smirked and I didn’t know when I startedughing again.
“Damn girl, where are all theseing from?” I askedughingly.
“I don’t know.” She chuckled.
“That’s enough girls. You need to go to bed, Marianna. There’s school tomorrow.” Mom said to Marianna and Marianna’s cheerful expression turned sour.
“But mom…” Marianna was saying when mum cut her off.
“No objections. Go to bed, youngdy; it’s past 10 already.” Mom uttered, her voice fierce and leaving no room for objections. Marianna stood up begrudgingly, mumbled some incoherent stuff before attempting to storm up the stairs but mom stopped her.
“Where are your manners, youngdy? Have you said your ‘good night’?” Mom questioned her with a re.
“Good night.” She said and finally stomped off.
“Moooom.” I called, giving her a look.
“Whaaat?” She drawled.
“You were too hard on her and the time is not even 10 yet.” I told her and she rolled her eyes.
“I had to tell her that so that she’ll go to bed early.” She spoke.
“Okay. Before I forget, I got my sry today.” I told her with a small smile.
“Wow really? How much is it?” She asked.
“10000 dors.” I uttered and her eyes grew wide in shock.
“That’s a lot of money, it will go a long way in getting the things we need.”
“Yes, it will. We’ll go for grocery shopping tomorrow and also get your drugs.” I said, a small grin ying on my lips.
Mum teared up when I said that, “thanks a lot sweetie, I don’t want to imagine how we’ll live if I didn’t have a daughter like you.”
“It’s okay mum, you don’t need to cry.” I moved closer to her and hugged her.
“Why won’t I cry? Any mother would be blessed to have a daughter like you, I sure am blessed.” She smiled tearily.
“Cry all you want then.” I joked and she startedughing instead.
“That’s the smile I love to see.” I pulled her cheeks and sheughed harder.
“I’ll start smiling more often then.”
“You should, your smile brightens up my day.” I stated and she giggled.
“I’m feeling sleepy, I have to go to bed now.” She yawned sleepily and stood up after a few minutes of silence.
“Me too, today has been so stressful for me.” I got on my feet and stretched my body.
“Good night darling.”
“Good night, mum.” I responded and we went to our different rooms.
I took a quick shower and changed into my nightdress. Iid on my bed and picked up a novel that I had been reading for months now but never got a chance toplete because of limited time. I turned to the page that I bookmarked and began reading from there.
I was getting immersed in the novel when my phone started ringing, I took it from the bedside table and it turned out to be Cherry calling. I answered it and ced it against my ear.
“Babe! Guess what?!” Cherry squeaked loudly from the other end.
“What is it?” I asked, curious about what is making her very excited.
“My boss also asked me to be his date to the g and I think it’s the same one you’re going to.” She said cheerfully and I didn’t realize when a small squeak left my mouth.
“Woohoo, that’s good news. I would not be so bored then because I can’t imagine what it would be like being in the midst of rich ass people.” I spoke.
“Yeah baby, see you at the g.” She said excitedly.
“See ya.” I replied and she hung up.
Tomorrow would be a little bit fun, I guess. TBC
