Haneul's pov
It's not easy to work when you Are in pain,for the past one hour I have been struggling to get orders and this is getting alot of customers anger.If madam joy gets to know about this,she will definitely fire me for sure and that means am going to be homeless.

"Am sorry for the delay"Clara apologised to the hundred customer today, she has been helping me out. I feel so bad for her not only does she do her job,she is also doing mine as well.

Haneul you are so pathetic, is is why people leave you and never love you. You are a burden.

"Clara I told you that am fine. I can handle it"

"Handle it?!!!!" She suddenly yelled and I flinched,if you have been following my story then you should know I don't do well with yelling.

"Haneul look at your self you can barely support your own weight. And you think you can handle this,I don't want you fired that is why am covering up for you" she said looking Angry. I have never seen her this angry

"But i-i-i-i can do it"

"Shut up Haneul, If I hear one more word from you I will tell madam joy everything"

I frozen in my spot, she can't tell her. If she does and madam joy ends up firing, the Colombo's will have my head on a platter. And then I will finally become homeless come to think of it being homeless seems like a better option than stay with the Colombo's.

"For Pete's sake Haneul go home"

"What about madam joy and the work here?"I asked. Why is she forcing me to go home? I don't want to

" Don't worry I will talk to madam joy for you just go home"

I sighed in defeat, it seems like there is nothing that I can say or do to convince her to let me stay.i guess I will have to go home

I nodded "ok I will" I whispered, Clara give me a small smile . I wanted to stay mad at her but I couldn't help but smile back at her.

"Do you want me to call Lucas to come pick you up?" She asked

"No I can go home myself" I saying, I don't want to disturb Lucas. He recently got a job as a personal assistant to a CEO of a big company. He must be busy, I don't think he will be free to take me home.

"Are you sure? I can take you home if you want"she suggested.

I shook my head"Am fine"

"Ok at least let me call an Uber"she picked you her phone before I couldn't stop her.

"Done he will be here in a few minutes" she said placing her phone back in her pocket.

I glared at her playful, I feel like a burden. Nobody has ever done anything like that for me Infact noone likes me.

"Don't look at me like that " she laughed at my face.

"Thank you Clara, you don't know how much you have done for me" I cried hugging her as tight as my damage body could.

"Oh baby, Don't cry you know I will do anything for you" she Patted my back gently. I pulled away from the hug sniffing.

"You look so cute with your red nose and cheeks" she smiled at me. I softly hit on her shoulder feeling shy.

"Let's go wait outside, the Uber will be here soon" she took my hands and guided me slowly outside. We stood there for sometime, before a car pulled over.

"Take care ok don't come to work until you are fully well.you have a slight fever so you need plenty of rest ok" she cautioned me like a mother to her child. Which made me feel alot Better.

"Ok I promised" I smiled at her and got into the Uber, i waved at Clara from inside the car and she waved back at me.

The drive to the mansion was very quiet, I don't personally talk to strangers and I don't think the driver is interested to start a conversation with me. I sighed

This why you need more friends Haneul at this rate I will surely die alone.

"We're here" the driver announced, I got out of the car and thanked the driver . I was going to pay him but he said it has been taken care for before he drove away.

I was now stand at the gate of the mansion, breathing heavily. I walked in, the mansion was pretty far from the gate so it was a long walk. As I got close, I noticed a black car at the driveway.

I know I have not seem all the Colombo's cars or stand even close to it but I have not seem this one before. Do they have a visitor?or is Mr and Mrs Colombo back? Either way, it wouldn't be good for me.

I entered the living room and noone was in sight. I sighed in relief "thank God". Where is everyone? I don't even know why am asking, I should be Happy. I shook my head at my own thoughts.

" Why are you home so early?" Oh no I know that voice, slowly I turned to my right side to see my mother. When did she get back? Did Mr Colombo come with her?

"Hmm i-i-i-i w-was sent ho-home" I said quietly, afraid that I will offend her and I do not want to offend her. My body can't afford another Punishment.

"They finally realized how useless you were and decided to get rid of you. Well that's good get ready to become homeless" she carelessly said.

"N-no i-i-i-i was sent h-home cos i-i-i-i w-was sick"

For a moment, I thought I saw a look of concern in her eyes but it was gone the moment it came or probably it was never there.

" Noone cares if you are dead just don't use this as an excuse to get out of chores"she turned and left, leaving me with the warning.

I go to my room, I was feeling so cold and slightly hot. I took off my shirt and got on my bed,laid down and wrapped my self with a blanket. I have six hours before dinner,so I guess I could sleep alittle.

I was getting comfortable in my small bed when I heard noises down stairs.
What happened? Did someone died?.I was so tired and cold but my curiosity wouldn't let me stay in bed.

I got up from the bed with the blanket wrapped around me like a mummy, slowly but quietly walked out of my room. When I got to the stairs way I peep down to see Aurora crying hugging Ethan with my mom and Mr Colombo smiling at them and Ethan's friends and their girlfriends with their phone recording.

When did they get here? Anyways the most important question is what is happening?

"Let's go out and celebrate" I heard Mr Colombo voice. Celebrate what? Are they going to celebrate me being sick? Nah I don't think so am not worth their time.

"Helena" my mom called out. Helena Immediately came running

"Yes madam"

" We are going out soon to celebrate Ethan and Aurora engagement so tell that trash not to prepare dinner"

Engagement? Wow they hasn't been date for up to a months and now they are getting engaged?weird. Is it weird that I don't feel affected by the fact that my ex is getting married to my step brother?

Well anyways at Least I can rest and not worry about dinner. I made my way back to my room to get some rest. I need to recover before tomorrow.

Hopefully, tomorrow will be better than today.
