Ciara's POV
My eyes are red and swollen from crying too much yesterday. I still can't believe I've been banned from going outside for no solid reason. Now i'm stack in the house doing house chores all day.
I quickly walk into the bathroom to have a bath.
After taking a long bath, i head to the kitchen to find something to eat since I hadn't eaten anything since evening .
As I approach the kitchen,I'm welcomed with the smell of bacon and scrambled eggs.
I really want to go back into my room in order to prevent my ears from hearing any further scolding due to my misbehaviour last night but I hear my stomach making sounds telling me that i should find something to eat fast before anything bad happens.
So i put that idea aside and keep walking towards the kitchen.
Immediately I step into the kitchen I notice mum setting the table for breakfast.
" goodmorning" I greet
"Yh goodmorning"she responds
"How are you feeling today "
" i feel better than yesterday I guess" I respond
"Okay"
I help her set the table for breakfast.
She serves both of us and we begin to eat quietly .

Mary's POV"what are you planning on doing today?"
I say breaking the uncomfortable silence and immediately regret it .
"Nothing much since I can't go outside " she responds without looking at me.
"Look here Ciara, I think not going outside would be the best for now . You can also enjoy yourself as much as possible here only if you want to and
afterall its just a week or two.I don't know how to explain this but just trust me, i want the best for you." I say to her
" what at all are you soo worried about?"
I will just be close by and I promise to come home early before 4pm or even 3pm if you want. Just please unground me" She pleads"I think i made this clear yesterday and I'm telling you once again that this decision is final and i would really like it if it's not discussed again. let's just enjoy our meal and return to our daily routine please."
"You were the one who brought this up in the first place" she says undertone
" You wouldn't like it if i added more punishments because of your attitude."
"Sorry mum it won't repeat itself" she says in defeat
"Good then.. let's finish this meal before it goes cold" I tell her
Ciara just nods .
We both start eating and the place becomes quiet once more.
After eating Ciara cleans the table and washes the dishes while I fold our clothes and take it to their rightful places.
After doing this task, I then remember sending Ciara to the post.

Ciara's POV
"Ciara" I hear mum shout
"Yeah"
"I didn't get any feedback about the letter yesterday"she says
"Oh yh.....I was told you had no letter there."
"okay" she says with disappointment evident in her voice.
"you know something, i could always go there to ask again"I say eagerly to hear a yes.
"Oh not so fast miss,you are not going anywhere. I can go check if i want to"
" But mum"I plead
"But nothing. Just go and continue with whatever you were doing before I interrupted"she says.
"Fine"i reply briefly
For once I had a chance of going to town using that letter excuse but then it's all lost now
I think that is what happens when you have one intelligent mother living under the same roof .
I quickly finish washing the dishes and head to the sitting area to dust the furniture there.
I find mum kniting something that seems like a sweater.
While dusting the whole place I decide to engage her in a conversation thinking i would get the chance to go to town or something.
"mum"
"Yes dear"
"So what are you up to today "I ask
"Why do you ask?"
"no reason, i just felt you had other plans other than sitting in the house checking up on me "i reply
"Oh not really I just need to go fetch some vegetables from a friend's house."
"Oh ......okay"
another chance lost.I think of other ways to get out of the house but
My thoughts are interrupted when there is a sudden knock on the door."I will get that mum"
I walk to the door wondering who the person behind the door might be. When i open the door ,I find Emily standing there quiet disturbed.
"Wow Em,what have I done to receive such a blessing to have you in my house?"I ask dramatically.
"Hey Ciara,I just wanted to talk to someone and who is better to talk to than my own best friend."
She says with sadness evident in her voice"Yeah,right"
" Emily come her "
I hug her tightly
"Come on let's go inside""Good afternoon Aunt"
She greets mom"Hope you are fine dear?"
She asks"I'm okay ,hope you are also fine ?"she lies
"I'm fine " replies mom
"Ciara since you have company here I think i will go get the vegetables i said, so go prepare some tea for Emily okay"
" feel at home Emily"
She tells her." i will be on my way"
She says and exits the house."Okay since we have the house to ourselves,let me just prepare tea for both of us and head to my room" I tell her
She nods and tries to put a smile on her face
I quickly prepare the tea and we both head to my room.
I don't know what brought her here but then i know for sure that I'm so pleased to see her.☆☆☆☆☆
