Sarah walked back home thinking about what Max and his mum said. She knew this money would set her up for a long time.

Sara was so lost in thoughts that she didn't realise someone was  following her. The person touched her shoulder causing her to jump from fear. It was Max.

"It's late. Let me give you a ride home"

Max parked in front of Cindy's apartment.

"I know it's hard to hear. But I'm just looking out for my daughter. She means everything to me " he concluded.

"What about Amira's family? They will get suspicious "

"Amira and her family are not close so they don't know about her current condition. I'm not telling you to leave your life to help,I won't restrict you from doing anything. They will be a contract that you have to sign"

"A contract?

"You need to know the term of our conditions"

"This is a bit too much. I need time to think about all this"

Max handed Sara a file.

"This is the contract. You can go through it and make a decision. Sara,I really hope you sign it. You are my last hope"  Max said trying to hide the pain in his voice.

I took a quick shower and looked to see if I got a message from my phone. It was from Grace.

Grace "Sorry for not calling or texting back. I've been so busy. But I hope everything is great."

Sara needed some one to talk to. Cindy had a night shift and Sam was probably too busy to call or text her.

She knew the money Max and her mum offered was huge and she would also be able to help a kid who is losing herself.

She tried to sleep but it seems it wasn't possible. She turned on the lamp and decided to go through the contract.

First Rule: Nobody is supposed to know about this contract except for the three parties (Max,Ms. Smith,Sara)

Second Rule: No fighting around Amy.

Third Rule: Should know Amy's to do list for everyday.

Fourth Rule: Share the same room.

The last one surprised Sara. She wasn't going to share a room with her handsome boss. She knew that living in the same room would create a sense of a peaceful home for Amy .

The only thing Sara wanted to know was how long the contract was supposed to last for because she wanted to plan a future for her and Sam.

Sam. Another question she asked herself. She thought they could do a long distance relationship for a few months until he joins her in the
city but he neither calls or text her.

Sara wasn't feeling too well the next day so she called in sick. She went to lie on the couch to watch a movie unsure of Cindy and Mark being home. She covered herself with the blanket and slowly drifted off to sleep.

"What the hell is this?" Sara woke up due to the shout .

She rubbed her eyes to see if she was seeing things clearly. Cindy had the contract in her hands and Sara was sure she read it.

"I haven't signed the contract yet and somebody already knows"she thought to herself.
