My dad came back on a Saturday afternoon. If he had came back by himself, I wouldn't be bothered. But he came back with my worst nightmare. Probably, even worst than David. My step grandmother. She's trouble and believe me she does things like a thirty year old. She's seventy five for crying out loud.
    "Gabi! Why's that so Dusty! Like there's no one around. You should have ended up with chlorine..." she yelled "mum it's kleerin" he said _my goodness I haven't heard of such name in ages_ my conscience spoke. "Good afternoon my dearest step grandma" I greeted nonchalantly. She stared at me like she had seen a ghost. " what's so good about the afternoon?! And where's your mother?  Didn't she see I'm here? Like mother like daughter indeed" she shouted 'no, like mother like son ' I thought "don't just stand here, get her luggage inside."David said and I carried her heavy bags. 'I wonder if she wants to die here. I mean she had many bags for like more than ten people. Unbelievable!' I thought. He led her inside as she murmured continuously. Nicky came out from her room walking to the kitchen. I don't think she noticed her or so. "Hey you little pipsqueak!, didn't you see me?!" She shouted Nicky looked innocently "I'm talking to you!" She shouted "mum let her be, she doesn't even speak" David said calming her down "oh I see, then of what use is she?" She asked looking Nicky from head to toe. "Go! And stop staring! Oh my Gabi I haven't drank my milk yet" she stated fanning her self. 'Gabi?! Shouldn't it be David?... wow so old school' I thought leading Nicky to the kitchen "Gabi?! Your good for nothing kids are so disgusting! I mean here am I asking for some glass of milk and there they are walking out on me?!" She broke down in tears. "Mona! Get you grandma a glass" David requested "but the one left is for Nicky, she needs her vitamins" I said "oh so you want me to die of a heart attack?! Gabi did you hear that? She wants me to due!" She cried 'does she have hearing problem?' I thought "Mona I said get your grandma a glass " David said. I rolled my eyes and went to bring the glass. "Did you see that? She just hid her black eye balls on you! That's what I see celebrities do on tv!" She yelled "mum just calm down " David said 'wow, why's he acting all too calm. Is he ok?' I thought "and put plenty sugar!"she shouted. "Baby, don't you worry, I'll get some for you later ok?" I said to Nicky and she nodded quietly. I handed over the milk to her and went with Nicky to her room. "Who's she? I heard daddy say 'mum' is she his mother?" Nicky asked as I closed the door behind me. " yes baby" I replied "what's taking mummy so long? Do you think she's caught in traffic?"she asked "yeah maybe" I replied. "How come she's old and she dont know?"  She asked and I laughed "because she wants to be young and pretty like you!" I said tickling her and she laughs continuously running round her bed. "How come she had big fat bags? Is she staying here from now on?" She asked after we settled down "yes maybe" I replied. "I'll act nice to grandma so that I don't fall in trouble" she said "just stay out of her way ok? I don't want that old lady hurting you" I said "just like she hurt my milk by adding sugar in it?" She asked "yes" I replied "are you ok?" She asked _no! Daniel hasn't called her since this morning so she's a little bit sad_ my conscience replied "yes of course baby! I'm absolutely fine" I said cupping her cheek "Nicky!" David called "come get the door!" He added 'they had to yell out Nicky's name all the way to get the door? I mean they were just near. David could get it' I thought angrily. "Dont you think they're harsh?" Nicky said "why?" I asked confused "they're down but still wants me to open the door" she explained "yes and they're bad too. so try as much as possible to stay away from?...." I started "....... grumpy grandma!" Nicky finished, chuckling. "high five!" I said and our hands clapped together. We laughed."shh she might hear you" I whispered "secrete!" She replied whispering. "Nicky don't let me come get you! " David's voice intruded "let's go!" I said and we left holding hands.
