Weird Stella

Tasha's POV

If I tell you that Stella is acting so crazy these days will you believe me?! I know but she is. She is all the time lost somewhere thinking about something. I don't know what is going on her head.

Whenever I asked her she just smiled and avoided the topic. She was just saying a lot of pressure on her. Work and work. I wasn't convince fully. But I am not convinced fully. Cause Stella is not at all a girl like this. She is always running, shouting and jumping like a whiny kid but I don't know what got into her and she is just changed totally. She is all quiet. Even Bella was asking that day.

Currently I was in the kitchen working with Mrs. Stewart. She wanted to cook something for us. So, I and Bella decided to help her as Ellie is not at home. I just was thinking about Stella's sudden change. She talks less and she looks like she is tired.

I was cutting the veggies and suddenly felt a sharp pain on my finger and found out I cut my finger. I immediately put it under the tap and water was washing away the blood. I felt dizzy. Suddenly remembered the incident happened with my family and how they were all covered with blood.

I felt weak inside. I hold the kitchen counter and closed eyes to stop myself from falling down.

" Tasha, what happened?" I heard Mrs. Stewart saying.

" Headaches." I replied.

" You must have skipped breakfast. Where were you at breakfast time, girl? Edwin told me to call you and do breakfast together. But you told you will do later, have you did your breakfast then!?" She asked.

" I mean no." I said looking down.

" Then you skipped medicine too, right?" She asked and I smiled weakly.

" Girls!!!" She said. " Sit here you both I will make you something." She told both of us.

" But aunty I have done my breakfast." Bella tried to explain.

" No, talk. Sit down." Mrs. Stewart said and Bella started to glare and me and I just shrugged.

Mrs. Stewart present us delicious pancakes. I didn't took a second to dig it to devour. I heard Mrs. Stewart chuckling. Bella took a bite then her expression changed and she gave me a thumbs up.

" Can I have one more?" Bella said.

" Sure." Mrs. Stewart made her more and I took some.

" Enough, aunty no more pancakes to this girl. She is going to eat the whole world now." I heard Alan saying. He came and took the fork and knife from Bella then started to eat from the same plate with the same fork and knife.

I was shocked for a while so was Bella. But I smiled as I gained back my sense and Bella tried to get back her plate but Alan was too stubborn to give it back to her. I smiled at their cute acts. They are definitely a cute couple. They are always arguing and fighting but still their love is like they found peace in their fighting. Like they wants each other for fighting. I smiled. Bella gave up after a while whining like a kid. She took another plate and went to Mrs. Stewart.

" Aunty, I want more." Bella said to Mrs. Stewart.

" Sure, honey." Mrs. Stewart said and made her more.

Bella smiled and took the the plate to table and sat between me and Alan and started to have her food. Alan was looking at her shocking.

" What?" Bella asked asked Alan.

" You are like whinny kid now." Alan said.

" So!! Where is that written that I can't act weird?" Bella asked.

" You two stop now and eat calmly." Mrs. Stewart said.

I laughed my ass off at this. What a crazy couple!!! This is so fun here. I just kept laughing.

" Oh, no." Mrs. Stewart said.

" What happened?" I asked.

" I can't find sugar here. It must be run out. Marie is not here today, Mrs. Busby is sick. Who will get sugar now!?" Mrs. Stewart asked herself.

" If you don't mind I and Bella can go." I said.

" You girls sit at home. Alan you go." Mrs. Stewart said.

" Please can we go?" Bella asked Mrs. Stewart.

" No you can't." Alan interrupted her.

" Please, Mrs. Stewart. We will take that fat cat with us." I said.

" Fat cat?" She was a bit confused.

" The security follows me everywhere." I said. She laughed at this.

" Ok, go but carefully." She said.

" We will." I and Bella got ready and got out of the house after Bella sticked out her tongue at Alan and Alan glaring at her.

" He is crazy." Bella said.

" I disagree. They are stupid." I said and Bella laughed I joined her.

We went to the supermarket and bought sugar and milk. Then we paid and walked out of the shop. As we were returning I found Stella was roaming around Stewart house with a guy. He was around his mid 40. I was wondering who he is.

Bella was about to call her but I stopped her from doing it. I hold her hand and we kept a distance.

" Stella has a boyfriend?" Bella asked, " she never told us."

" He is not at all her boyfriend. Maybe he works with her." I said.

" Yeah, maybe. But why are you not meeting her?" Bella asked.

" She must be busy." I said and she nodded.

" Let's go home. We will talk with her later." I said and Bella nodded.

" By the way, do you agree with my proposal?" I asked Bella.

" Which one?" Bella asked. I sighed. How can she forget too fast!!! I was thinking.

" The fashion house?" I asked.

" Still thinking." She said and I sighed

As we entered the house I found Stella sitting with Alan watching a football match. I was shocked. When she came inside!!!

" Hi, girls!!" She said and again turned to watch game.

Why is she acting weird these days!!!!
