Black Eyed Susan

Their fun time was interrupted by the village head daughter (Mira). " Well well well! What do we have here, a lowly foolish girl gisting with her besties. Oh, so peasants can also make friends hun."Jane was used to Mira's harsh words, but ignorance is bliss, even though she can't deny the pain of those mean and harsh words. She just decided to let it go, cause honestly she really doesn't have time to battle words with Mira, not when she has more significant things to face. Mabel and Viva just glared at Mira, if looks could kill, she would have been ten feets beneath the ground. Mart stood up and sneered." Look whose talking, you know what? You can just cut to the chase. Meaning that, just admit you are jealous or envious of Jane, instead of going another way around.""You..." Mira blushed with anger and of course obviously hurt, because she liked Mart and didn't expect him to defended Jane. Instantly, waves of jealousy surged in her, and she felt like hitting

Jane widened her eyes in disbelieve. "No, that's can't be. Why??? Who would do that ? Because of what?" The last word came as a whisper, while she slumped back gently on the bed. "Grandma, this is too much. Why this?! So, you mean there is nothing for us right us? No savings?" Mama liya nodded her head at her granddaughter's questions, and they both sighed." I will try and borrow money from my friends tomorrow, cause right now it already late. I guess we will have to sleep with an empty tommy." Jane voiced out sadly. At 11 pm, Jane was still up. Not able to sleep. She was thinking about how things just turned out for them, no good food to eat daily, no good wears, and no one to aid them. Everyone just scorned them both and look at them with eyes full of disgust. She sighed heavily asking her self, why is life so unfair to her and her grandma. They hardly ate three meals in a day, not to talk of no dinner this time at all. Sometimes, when she thinks about their situ

Listening to Mr. Lowes words, the scholarship program she lost, almost forgotten due to the condition she met Mama liya earlier, came back to her and made her feel more hurt.She dropped to the ground, weeping silently. The village doctor seeing this felt lost, not knowing what to do.After an hour of crying, all alone now. She stared blankly, her eyes devoid of any emotions. At that moment, all she wanted was to go away from all these troubles. She always wished for a simple life but guess life wasn't ready to grant her that or what? Shifting her gaze from the wall to her grandma, Jane moved closer to Mama Liya. Staring at her beautiful sleeping figure, she felt a sudden surge of hope in her and wiping her warm tears with the back of her arm, she promised. " I will try my best to not let you down grandma."Jane stood up and went to Mr. Lowes house. Knocking on his door, she heard a voice. " Who is it?""Jane."Came her reply to the voice. The door was opened and

Mr. and Mrs. Thomas went to welcome Mr. Nelson who just entered their mansion."Mr. Nelson, what a wonderful surprise!" Mr. Thomas greeted.He suddenly wondered what brought Nelson Ebuka here for he knew that, he is a proud and hard to see person.Mrs. Thomas joined her husband." Yes Mr. Nelson, it an honour, coming to our house personally."Mr. Nelson sneered at their words."Yes, I happen to visit a friend around this area, so I thought of gracing you guys a visit too. That way, I can see how your mansion is, though it can't be compare to mine, but at least it is pleasing to the eyes.""Ohh, that's explains it. Well, we are nothing when it comes to you, so it is normal for our mansion to be low compare to yours Mr. Nelson."Mrs. Thomas said through gritted teeth. She really felt like tearing Mr. Nelson into two for his stabbing words. Just who does he think he is? Because he is the Senate president? Rubbish! She thought."Please, come in." Emmanuel said to clear th

Both couple were really made for each other."So then, what are we waiting for? Who knows what can happen in the next minute." Debby said, more to herself."Relax. I still need to sort some things out." Emmanuel replied his wife, whilst his fingers were fastly tapping the key board.After some minutes, the couples and their envoys were on the road, heading to Jane's place.The outskirts area was a place where people who ain't financially stable could stay, and it was a place filled with tranquility.They never expect big people and never thought of seeing one, cause they believed, with wealth comes lots of enemies and problems.But the sudden appearance of big three cars astonished them. They started murmuring, and soon the whole place was filled with the news of the big people arrival.Jane and her grandmother were in the kitchen, enjoying their peaceful family time.Still oblivious about the news going around the area."You seem to be in a good mood today dear."
