Urrghh..... Shopping list means I have to go to the shops and face people who will give me those pity looks and their condolences. *Knock Knock* I look at the clock and its only 9 who comes at this early. Grabbing my dressing gown on the way to the door.
" Good morning Ms Benjamin, I'm Joseph Cooper your parent's lawyer."
"Um morning, what are you exactly here for Mr Cooper?"
" Well I'm here to speak to you about your parent's will. May I come in?"
" Yeah why not"
Walking in the lounge room and just remembering all the memories flash in my head. This once time I was playing hide-and-seek with Chris and Vanessa and we broke my mum's favorite vase and she gave us a lecture one an hour.
I felt tears trickling down my cheeks.
"Um Ms Benjamin, I think the baby woke up"
Quickly wiping away the tears and turning my face to him.
"Make yourself comfortable, excuse me"
Running upstairs to the nursery.
"Nathy its alright" Cradling my baby brother and taking him down stairs. I always had this effect on Nathan every time I held him.
"Sorry, so what were you going to tell me about my parents' will?"
"Ms Benja.."
" Tiffany not Ms Benjamin, it makes me sound old"
"Well Tiffany, in your parents' will they had left a large amount of money and this house under your name. I don't think your parents ever told you this but do you know who your grandparents are?"
"Well, um not really I've never met them. My parents weren't really that happy about their parents so I wouldn't know"
"Tiffany, your grandparents are multi-billionaires CEOs of
a very successful company - NYC Tech Enterprise"
Nathan stirred in my arms. I stared at the lawyer shocked and hungry.
"So my grandparents are C-E-O-S of the famous NYC TECH ENTERPRISE!!"
" Yes and you should take a look at the amount of money under your name"
He opened his briefcase and took a piece of paper, that clearly wrote Ms Tiffany Benjamin will receive the amount following from Mr and Mrs Benjamin:
$999,000
I gasped. Where did my parents get all this money from. I knew they were saving but seriously $999,000.
" This can't be m..mine right ?"
" Its all yours Tiffany and I am sure you would use this money slowly and carefully. Tiffany I better get going now. Here's my card, when you need to talk or just anything call me"
"Cooper, can you help me find out my grandparents' details and number ? I think its time to meet the grandparents'"
" Sure will do, I'll call you when I have something"
I walked him to the door still holding my brother.
"Remember, if you need me call me"
"Alright, see ya"
As soon as he's car disappeared, I made my way into the kitchen putting Nathan on those high baby seats.
I had breakfast which basically meant cereal and orange juice. I fed Nathan his yummy baby food. I bathed Nathan and dressed him in a cute superman one piece.
Walking into my room and placing Nathan onto the bed and putting cushions by his sides. I picked up my phone and dialed Chris.
"Hey Chris, I need you to come in my house in 20 to pick me and Nathan up so we could do a little bit of retail therapy to get us in a happier mood"
"Tiffany are you alright? Remember Vanessa and I are right here for you no matter what! I'll be right there waiting for you and I'm bringing Vanessa as well"
"I'm actually okay, my parents wouldn't like to know that I'm all depressed and not living life but its hard without them here. Anyways, alright see you in 20".
"Bye Tiffy"
"Nathan, mummy and daddy are watching over us right now. Smile for them"
I went through my wardrobe to find my favorite shirt. It says " I Love My Mummy" I got it for my birthday two years ago from my mum and she said "No matter where I am I will always be here for you and I'll be in your heart forever and ever. I found some studded shorts and my studded converse.
I picked up Nathan and gave him a kiss on the head. I grabbed his hat and went downstairs to get my list and bag. I walked outside and did the locking process and waited for Chris and Vanessa.
"You know I love you right little bub" Nathan gave me this cute little smile.
I felt like a mum looking after him and everything. Its been nearly to months and life without my parents were hard but I managed most of the time with lots of help.
*Beep beep*
I looked up see Chris' car, an awesome car to travel in. Nathan started to cry because of the horn.
"Hey Tiffy, you ready to go? Oh no little Nathy crying. Tiff give Nathan to me, while you go set up his baby seat, alright"
"Tiffany let me help and then we can go shopping!"
"Vanessa of course. Um can you put the pram in"
Ten minutes later we were off to the mall.
