Gabriela P.O.V
I threw the toy on the floor, disgusted with it. It was a little Barbie doll that my parents bought for me, claiming I would love it. They assumed things without asking me first what I wanted.
I sighed jumping off my bed. I needed to go to the bathroom because I was pressed. I was irritated that the bathroom wasn't in my room. I had to go out of my room to do that. I didn't like meeting people, I loved being alone.
Opening my door, I peered out of the door making sure no one was within arm's length. Should I make a run for it? I smiled at the thought. I ran halfway when the annoying voice that belonged to my cousin sounded.
"Where are you running to, huh?" She demanded authoritatively.
Taking a deep breath, I turned to face her. "Bathroom, I answered." With that, I ran to the bathroom.
"I will just be waiting for you," she shouted at me. I inwardly cursed. I finished my business and came out.
Not surprisingly, she carried out her threat.
"Gabriela."
"Jessica," I scoffed, not looking at her but the floor with my hands placed inside my jeans pocket.
"I am sick and tired of you, you know? I am here to spend time with you and all you do is ignore me each time I try to strike up a relationship with you. Do I smell or what?"
I looked at her. "Listen, I just want to be alone, OK? You just have to get used to it," I said.
She frowned, and said, "well, you can't always keep to yourself."
I didn't want to stand there blabbing. I walked off, heading to my room.
"You know it's rude to walk out on people. It's this attitude of yours that hinders you from making friends," she reminded me. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56rbwWF6UT
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwFvTNvyJe
I didn't care what she had to say. I wanted to be alone; there wasn't anything rude or weird about that. I got into the room and closed the door behind me, breathing deeply. Every time I talk to people for long, it makes me weak and frightened. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyCADaWSj0

If only my parents were here right now, things would have been much better, I affirmed to myself. I quickly sat down, taking deep breaths as my doctor advised. I felt better after 25minutes. And I decided to take a nap. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSy8SbIrW11

928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFVrVIs1KU
I shuffled through the sales book as anger surged inside of me. The useless girl ran from the store with her arms full of clothes. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLmhy0chAw
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTx0I0gFtx
"I am here, ma," she spoke timidly, shifting her load from one arm to the next. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcB2wrhySY5
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9KakXB7Bk
"What happened to the blue gown embellished with sparkling stones?" I queried.
I watched as her eyes almost bulged out of their sockets. I knew she had stolen my clothes. I wondered how many more she had stolen that I didn't know about. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQOdW6FUlB
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvtu9FT7Cb
"Eh...Eh..." 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUi7Q9CiQjE
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL87xaIt3QE
"Eh, what?" I snapped, rising from the recliner. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlM0VUuCbgo
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3MKZvv21e
"Madame, I sold it. The money was inside the one I gave you," she lied. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKQD2FXzHc
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFGagPuLlf
"Are you telling me, I don't know how much it was or the number of clothes you sold?!" I shouted. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU3dWA50mVi
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwATAQNd78
"Madame, it's the truth I have just told you."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUDYzdirc5
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeYIbZxPsq
I had had enough of these lies. "Keep those things over there,” I pointed to an empty chair. I don't want to talk too much, go and clean up your desk. You are no more working here," I said with finality. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7BeurqmGQ
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qAPftuTLp
She went on her knees pleading. "Ma, don't do this. It was the devil."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKwolSBpLf
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nYppFHm6I
"So, you now admit you did it?" I sat down comfortably and called the security man.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ftUG9QRx5
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhqeg0KFme
"Baba, take this girl away."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2m5fzyHIG
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3IvXryS5qf
"Please ma! Please ma!" She begged. I didn't listen. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIATJQrxq6H
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJri9D2FKWO
My mind went to my daughter, Gabriela. I missed her so much. I was so scared to leave her all by herself because of a disorder she had. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7z2ivktH6
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5pU4V5IGo
I sighed, “why does the devil exist? He just makes life hell for one. My little girl doesn't deserve all this.” 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpe5w2oDeU0
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGu53yPJxol
Just then, my phone rang. Looking at the call screen, it was my love. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSj4P6g9qdG
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaq5c8uVPK
"Bunny?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vKHzwKGPn

"Sugar, how is work going?" He asked. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJPQr5mzMj
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgb4vEzqm5Q
I sighed, "trying to uproot the weeds." I subconsciously touched my hair. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHNiOI1ijr
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTLR6Vq6lY
"What happened?" 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3ZXSXg3YZ
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KPqJRf0HR
"I found out today that a thief has been working for me all this while." I frowned. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQntOkE0fA
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWADMANu2s2
He gasped, "you need to be very careful when choosing your sales girl from now on." He said it sternly. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHi5AMCwWUD
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYG80d8VwE3
I sighed again, "I would."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbWJh8oo9t
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3gvpEkdms
"I was thinking about Gaby," he gushed. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfRQnx0ADC
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDVw6FTKuM
I wondered what was so exciting about that. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYobe29mci
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWjRbpfmq6
"What about her?" I asked curiously. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXjBTkQbxo
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYV2WFbgTJH
"I was thinking if we could take her to a separate school with people with the same problem, " he said. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflWX2epruj
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uesDxwMlw
I frowned. I was so angry with the segmentation. "I don't want her to be separated from us," I protested. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡscfVfrfakf
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqradBPxWQ
It was his turn to sigh. "Much less, stay with people with the same problem. Not done," I snapped. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnDP74miXF
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzXa2sSzpU
"I understand how you feel, but we would talk about it more when we get home," he pleaded.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aPRCZawew
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwlQPzyShK
I rolled my eyes and said, “In your dreams.” 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOKbRchZIn
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmTKlViRUb
"Bye," I said and hung up, not waiting for his reply. I was so angry with his suggestion. It did not go down well with me. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtKYpPTBOc
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Kwg8R99GD
I got home at around 10 pm. By then Gabriela has gone to bed. I was equally exhausted. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIM3r41i9rZ
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotRl9IRfH4
"Jessica, have you eaten?" I asked my niece whose eyes were glued to the television screen. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBz31U9H89p
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHVe3QyH9h
"Yes, ma," she said. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJuZrSKfEh3
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlz5nKqUyr
"What did you eat?" I queried as I brought the bag of semovita out of the cupboard. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVSfCUV5jIv
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qmfETzShw
"Indomie!" She squealed. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpO7tLrW3v
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUnwOj9Zm2S
I smiled. She was so normal. Why couldn't my daughter be like that? I wished.
I sighed as I went to work. A few minutes later, dinner was ready to be served. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBaHmoXKdR
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbMGqId13c
"Go and call your uncle for me. Be quick," I shouted. I laid down the dish on the dining table and waited for my husband to come. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhu2fYLh7XT
928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYMhY4Ek0f
He finally came and we started eating. After the dish, we went to the parlor. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpkHbUXjmK
