Monae's POV

Have you ever been so happy in your life, you think you gonna burst? That's my mood now. I woke up today feeling so happy as I recalled the talk I had with Mr Winchester when he got back from work.

"I didn't get the time to talk to you, how you doing?"

"I'm fine sir." I shyly replied, looking away. He's such a nice man and not a little bit like what I thought of him last night.

"I'm pleased to hear that, where are your family? They shouldn't have left you all by yourself alone at that time. Don't they care?"

"I don't have any family sir, I'm all alone in this world."

"How?"

I tearfully told him my sad tale, wiping my nose once in a while till I finished it. He got up from his seat and hugged me, pecking my forehead affectionately. "Don't cry anymore my dear, you have a family now. I'm thinking if adopting you into my family. You're beautiful and I know you're intelligent, you can't waste it working when you should be in school. I'm enrolling you into a university around so you get a degree, it's the greatest gift I can ever give you."

"Thank you so much sir, you don't know what this means to me. How can I pay you back?"

"No one is talking about that here, you're my daughter and no father loans his daughter money to go to university." He told me smiling at me.

"Thanks so much sir."

"Monae."

"Sir?"

"Call me Mr Winchester or when you're in a good mood, call me father."

"Okay sir uh I mean Mr Winchester." I shyly said wiping away tears. Less than 48 hours ago I sat questioning God and demanding from him a helper. He did just that sending an angel like him my way. I can never repay him, the only thing I can do is serve, respect him and revere him as my father and guardian all in one. I'll stay no matter what and make him proud of me.

"Good girl now go to sleep. Goodnight." I got up from my seat and left after wishing him goodnight alone in his study.

Squealing, I got off the bed, heading to the bathroom to perform my morning ritual. I need to set an alarm now that I'm going to stay here, waking up late and infuriating the lady of the house is no way in my plans. She doesn't like me and I don't want to give her more reasons to hate me or even kick me out of this house.

I'm wearing a baggy dress this time around because of yesterday's incident with Mrs Winchester. I can't have her thinking I want to seduce her already perverted son or flaunt my body in front of her daughter.

My happiness was so evident on my face even when I went into the kitchen. Roxie stared at me with a smile on her face as she removed the milk bottle from the refrigerator. "I can see someone is happy."

"Yeah I am! I have a very good reason to be so." I said with a bright smile on my face.

"Fill me in my dear, I also want to share in it."

"Just between the two of us, Mr Winchester has accepted me to live in this house, adopt me and to send me to school as well!" I almost yelled in excitement throwing my arms around her and pulled her into a hug.

"No way! Dad cannot do that." A different voice said from behind us, disappointment was dripping in her tone. I know what voice very well, it hardly speaks to me but i know how high pitched and annoying it is.
