Aiyla:
"What was he doing here?"- Zane starts with the 20/20 questions. But I didn't feel like answering, honestly I had no clue what David was doing here either. But I didn't hate it, I mean David and I are close, but not sleeping near my hospital bed at night, close. Although I thought Zane and I could be that close, where was he, when I was in a hospital bed dying! Okay not literally but still. I squint my eyes and purse my lips at him, showing my suspicion clearly. Yes Mr Yemdir, two can play this game!
"I don't know. But maybe you could ask that TV presenter from last night. She seemed all too eager. What was her name, oh yeah Saaarah. She'll be more than happy to answer some of your questions. Maybe she'll like to f..."
"OOOOOOkaay... Janam (dear) let's get you something to eat. I brought you some fruit and pancakes."- Mum interrupts me before I can finish, which is a good thing since I have no filter when I get angry, something mum knows all too well. Oh well I have pancakes and he doesn't. Ha HA.
"I brought you some too Zane"
Of course!!
I look up to give mum dirties to find Zane still looking at me suspiciously, so I reply by mouthing 'what' and a middle finger which earns me a disapproving tut from mother. I know I am the vision of sophistication. Honestly, I don't get what his problem is. I gave him a chance, I hate playing around the bush, it's outright on the table or nothing. So I do the one thing I can think of, I use my telepathy... 'You will fall in love with me Zane Yemdir, you will love me and never look at another woman. You will have eyes only for me'... I project the thoughts at Zane while he plows into mums pancakes, it doesn't go over me that she gave him the bigger pile. If I didn't already know I was adopted I would now. WOW. I keep projecting, with little reaction from his part.... asshole. I guess my telepathy skills are on the fritz, my girl 'matilda' will have to keep the crown, for now. Mwahahaha. OW.
"Eat you food, stop staring at him"- I look to my side to give my mum an earful before she beats me up more only to find Rosa in her place. I jump to give her a big, tight hug.
"How are you? How did you get here? Did you see what happened the other night? Was I not badass? Also you got mums accent and tone down to a 'T' dude.... I hope you got some closure."- I bombard her with question whilst still hugging her.
"Only you would ask how 'I' am doing, when your the one in the hospital gown. Which by the way is doing you no favours"- Rosa replies releasing me from her arms and rubbing my own.
"Thank you Aiy"- Rosa whispers with tears in her eyes to match my own.
"Hey, what are sisters for? Also look at it this way you now owe me a HUGE favour. "- I reply. Rosa was just as much my sister as Safiya. But she wasn't listening, already into her 2nd pancake.
"Slow down, are you a donkey, eh?"- Mum slaps Rosa's back as she chokes on a strawberry with an already full mouth. The strawberry goes flying on to Zane's cheek. Me and Rosa look at each other and start laughing, making her choke even more, which made me laugh more.
Zane:
I go to clean my face followed by the echoes of the girls laughs. I bump into David, I thought he left a while ago. Who was he to Aiyla, they started working in the department together, she never told me that they knew each other before. Could it be he has a crush on her?
"Why are you still hanging around here David? Don't you have work to do, you are part of the alpha team after all, I'm sure they is something for you to do. Or have I been neglecting you guys and they isn't enough work?"- I am still his boss after all, why not use it to my advantage.
