MIRACLE: OUR FOREVER

26. TRUTH

SAM'S POV

“Sam, come to the mansion now.” Grandma's voice sounds stern through the phone call.

“Sure,” My eyebrows knitted as I answered, but still didn't dare to question her order.

“Is everything okay?” Mon asked, coming from the kitchen with two plates of sandwiches in her hand.

I just shrugged my shoulder as an answer.

“I think, I need to go see grandma now. She asked for my presence at the mansion.” I enlighten her about my conversation with Grandma.

“Grandma?”

I nodded.

“Then, can I come with you? We can bring all the souvenirs too.” She said excitedly.

“Hmmm,” I give it a thought, 'It should be no harm to bring her, right? Besides, Grandma didn't warn me to come alone too.’

“Sure, you can come.”

“Yay! Let's at least have a breakfast first.”

Today is the second day after we arrived in Thailand, we still have a few days left before we started working on Monday.

We had our breakfast first as she suggested though my stomach kind of churned listening to Grandma's command.

But, one thing is for sure, Grandma won't scold her favourite grandchild, Mon. So, I should be safe, for now. Hopefully.

Once we arrived at the mansion, both of us were greeted by P'Sa at the door. Her expression seems off, but I don't know how to describe it. She seems both happy and worried at the same time when she looks at us.

But still, she accepted all the souvenir bags we handed her and led us inside. “Ermm, Lady Sam,” she suddenly turned to face me when we arrived at the main living room, “Lady Tassawan asked for your presence in her office. She asked me to relay the message as soon as you're here.”

“You mean, only Sam?” Mon who had been standing beside me finally asked.

“Yeah, I think she's expecting only Lady Sam at the moment,” P'Sa answered with an awkward smile.

“So, I'm not welcome here?” Mon said jokingly, just to tease the helper.

“No, no, it's not like that,” P'Sa sounds panic.

“It's okay, I'm just kidding,” She laughed looking at the panic house helper.

I can't help to smile at her banter, 'Always so naughty, this kid.’ All my worries kind of wash away for a while but it comes back when,

“Go, and see Grandma. You sure don't want her to wait any longer.” She slightly pushed me away. Meanwhile, she went towards the kitchen with P'Sa.

I brought my steps upstairs towards Grandma's office, every step felt heavy to me as I still couldn't predict what was waiting for me in that room.

I knocked on the door once before I opened it and the view of Grandma sitting on her high chair at her office table was presented behind the door.

“Grandma,” I called for her attention as I closed the door behind me.

What comes next really left me unprepared,

“WHAT IS THIS SAM?!”

A stack of square papers was thrown at me angrily. I have no idea what it is until… My sight landed on one of them, and my eyes buttoned, my mouth completely shut.

Speechless. A mixture of confusion, fear, and betrayal can be seen through my eyes, forming a pool of undescended tears.

'What the fuck?!’ Those are the first sentences formed in my mind.
