She had probably been eavesdropping on my conversation with my mother. You know how petty women came be, jumping into conclusions without actually wanting to find out the truth of the matter. Helena’s eyes were bloodshot red and it seemed like she’d been crying before now. Arms fooled under her breast, I knew there was trouble lurking behind that look but I pretended I hadn’t noticed the anger in her face.“Hey babes, you are here already. Mom’s gone. I said. I was nervous but I had to maintain a steady voice while talking to her. Maybe she didn’t hear anything, maybe she just came downstairs to check on me since I had taken so much time, I thought but I was far from the truth when the trouble finally hit me.“Do not touch”. She said and yanked her arms off my hand the moment I tried to touch her.“Babe, what’s wrong?” I
