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. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnKpfcxskc
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jzos0gItg
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. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvXy5MXryy

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. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfJ4hrqdcC

691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSUj4f0QFU
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. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOIAQNPIPn
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrFj6BAY1S
"I am here, ma," she spoke timidly, shifting her load from one arm to the next. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7yQHtkXgO
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Juo308KLT
"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. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewSBOlaV5R

691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPHljMM8mn
"Eh, what?" I snapped, rising from the recliner. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhHU00CC6f
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyT660T6f5U
"Madame, I sold it. The money was inside the one I gave you," she lied. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0ccLEuG0g
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnuHekLRKZu
"Are you telling me, I don't know how much it was or the number of clothes you sold?!" I shouted. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWiIfb5YIM

691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgi3kbP9OUD
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. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGiVERV2YfU
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGyFpwXRQt
She went on her knees pleading. "Ma, don't do this. It was the devil."691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFlNVBYIHpj
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxsWSYOIEJ
"So, you now admit you did it?" I sat down comfortably and called the security man.691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLZQ7hG91T
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aRyV3qQjZ
"Baba, take this girl away."691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJn1AqQAjy4
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFXmUOoMBb
"Please ma! Please ma!" She begged. I didn't listen. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2VZVA1edBH
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ2NNatBao0
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. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sSdIhrao8
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡit5u0PAiq0
I sighed, “why does the devil exist? He just makes life hell for one. My little girl doesn't deserve all this.” 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ekzm0qKHI
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9r92fP5RM
Just then, my phone rang. Looking at the call screen, it was my love. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1c0ArkMgAL

"Bunny?"691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8elK4Semyz

"Sugar, how is work going?" He asked. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBch5Smr9Y
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LR8CVDQ4m
I sighed, "trying to uproot the weeds." I subconsciously touched my hair. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjACtsnCMH
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMzzVyEtJJ
"What happened?" 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08SwBaltf4
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyR7FxNiZcK
"I found out today that a thief has been working for me all this while." I frowned. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzCOAWWK07
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEHZYho9zJ
He gasped, "you need to be very careful when choosing your sales girl from now on." He said it sternly. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0AQtg2fx8
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsN8Oe0nlom
I sighed again, "I would."691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNbUdEvhML
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zkydWno1E
"I was thinking about Gaby," he gushed. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3e9yehKKW
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRV51asfW9A
I wondered what was so exciting about that. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbNefJn6wJ
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHaVkZO9zyI
"What about her?" I asked curiously. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGNYyeKYdv
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8slMleSYV
"I was thinking if we could take her to a separate school with people with the same problem, " he said. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡls4wusOIGT
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSYwQtYDdF
I frowned. I was so angry with the segmentation. "I don't want her to be separated from us," I protested. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDfO7MV57c
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQycJPxN3so
It was his turn to sigh. "Much less, stay with people with the same problem. Not done," I snapped. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxR5Mx5g99Q
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHLc001vXa
"I understand how you feel, but we would talk about it more when we get home," he pleaded.691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rEZUiGdVS
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWoZ7ugqde
I rolled my eyes and said, “In your dreams.” 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEOMCfLSaO
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jkTmb50Bv
"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. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ34e9StavH
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4CffuKOOJ
I got home at around 10 pm. By then Gabriela has gone to bed. I was equally exhausted. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDc7iQW3sf
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7EOoA5jGn
"Jessica, have you eaten?" I asked my niece whose eyes were glued to the television screen. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJlKf4jsO5
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMk4D0VSWu
"Yes, ma," she said. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPx3NLbbfG
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGMmLtSbxl
"What did you eat?" I queried as I brought the bag of semovita out of the cupboard. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UAQ31aecJ
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrL04ezX0n5
"Indomie!" She squealed. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vCK1mLa1z
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUVKw8XWf1
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. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKE2iHdzRY
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjswoOb5PIh
"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. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFl8xJaxYZ
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZlaxSVDhh
He finally came and we started eating. After the dish, we went to the parlor. 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1yLrtHsnk
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpHHCu9upJ
"Jessica, did you have a good time today with Gaby?" 691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡck6mywwg4B
I went rigid.
