The Next Tomorrow

OLDER

Mara's Pov.

"...All to make records of the the new projects concerning the company.  The company has advanced payments for people who are able to make doubles but baby,  this kind of jobs are for the secretary and assistants. So why bother?" Aunt Claire asked. I watched her quietly. I was finally on the small time break after writing the examination. Aunt Claire has been teaching me the ways to run the companies and it was stressful than I thought but I kept going. I wanted to learn all aspects of it to prevent any ignorance on my path. So that's what I told her. She nodded and left me to work.

Two hours in, Delvis called. I smiled and picked up. "Hey baby" He called cheerfully,  he had always been my support while learning. "Hey" I responded. "So I'm at home and I wanted to ask if I could take some few money to go for groceries and some clothes for myself." He asked. His financial issues worsen so I was the one taking care of him. " Sure, you'd do a fashion show for me" I said giggling. He chuckled ,"You bet I would". "Okay, I have to go. Goodbye, love you" I said quickly as some unexpected guest came into my office. "Love you too!" He screeched. I hanged up and looked at them. "Hello, welcome and may I know you?" I asked politely, it was part of the training to be polite for all times. "Hello Miss Mara, we are here from your bank in Turkey, someone has been withdrawing huge amount of monies. We did further investigations and realised it was not you. It turned out to be Miss Devi Frimpong. She has been withdrawing it to a different account and buying expensive diamonds and dresses. I decided to come to you when the balance left became too low, something you've never spent since you joined us. " He concluded.  I gave out a sign , annoyed and devastated.  " I admit I gave Devi the chance to take some few cedis to buy whatever she wanted but transferring the money, I know nothing about. But thank you very much for this vital information, I will deal with what's left." I said nodding to them. " Okay Miss Mara, we'll send an email of the informations for your reference. " They said. " Thank you, we'll be in touch. "  I said.
They left as quickly as they came. I called aunt Claire . After leaving school, Devi started showing off some strange attitudes, complaining of being alone and stressed out when I was with Delvis.  She one day asked me to give her chance to leave Ghana because she felt suffocated.  I accepted after so many pleas and paid for her travel. Everyone was against me in the decision but I was uncomfortable with her always around when I was with Delvis. But spending my money on unnecessary things and transferring money is just the extreme of strange things. 

Was bringing back Devi a mistake?

I always ask myself. Aunt Claire came in and listened to the matter at hand. She also signed and stayed cool. She was disappointed,  her actions showed. She had come to love Devi like a daughter and she did this.
I was hurt but I love Devi like she was my sister. We've been friends since childhood and she stated. Even after Kholé and Goldy left to abroad.  We placed the matter aside and went to the a board meeting.  This was my steps to making my parents proud even though I was still hurt by them. I'd do this to defend myself because the Cann family were back for their 'property ' ignoring the fact that I was the rightful heir  to claimed those properties. Walking confidently behind my aunt , all I could think of was how I felt betrayed by my friend and how I would clear off my father's family.

As if they'd never come. I actually was waiting for this scene because its a typical Ghanaian culture.🤭
Anyway,  what do you think of Delvis and Devi.  Are they after her money?
