“You should be happy am not some kind of monster, if not you should have just consider dead ” Pamela said with a frown.
Vicky scoffed.
they drove into their compound.
“Mum” Vicky shouted and ran to hug her.
“My baby, how are you?” Mr Lane asked.
“Fine mum, how was the business?” Vicky asked.
“Mum why do you take long this time” Pamela interrupt.
“Hmmm!! is that how to welcome your mum and why do you look unhappy?” Mr Lane asked.
“Mum don’t mind her she don’t want to listen to what am telling her”Vicky said.
“What is it that you are telling her?” Mr Lane asked.
“She is so stubborn and she talk too much” Pamela said.
“Mum don’t mind her am only telling her what I think is the best for her but she’s not listening” Vicky said.
“Mum a guy was transferred to my school and he to took my position in the school and she telling me to be friend with him”Pamela said.
“Really you mean in that same school I owned the half share or which school are you taking about?” Mrs Lane asked.
“Yes mum he’s very smart and outstanding” Pamela said with an imaginary tears.
“And why don’t you tell me before now. I will asked the management to withdraw him From the school” Mrs Lane said.
“That’s my mum” Pamela said and hug her. she kissed her forehead.
“I don’t expect this From you mum. she actually took after your step thank goodness I didn’t took after you am different. you almost influence me back then but it was Romeo who changed me.
That’s not fair, is so bad instead of you to tell her to work harder so she can move ahead of him.
You are here encouraging her on bad attitude” Vicky said with a pout.
“What are you saying this, i just want my children to be the winner in every aspect” Mrs lane said.
“But not by deceipt. you might think you are doing the right thing but to be sincere you are doing the wrong thing instead.
if we always win without any challenge then how do you want us to cope if we found ourselves where there are a lot of challenges.
Pamela you are a coward to have think this is the best way to win Romeo.
well little did you know who Romeo parent are also rich.
Am very sure his mom is more richer than you mum, not to talk if his father but they don’t brag about this” Vicky said and was about to go to her room.
“Mum don’t mind her she’s just being over reactive because her heart was broken” Pamela said and cover her mouth with her hand.
“What do you mean by being heartbroken?” Mrs lane asked.
“Nothing mum I mean she’s heartbroken because we didn’t listen to what she said” Pamela manage to cook up some lied and look at Vicky.
“I know you very well. I know when you are lieing and when you are saying the truth, so tell me what do you mean by that” Her mum asked.
“Mum trust me there’s nothing we hidding from you and why should we hid things for you” Pamela said.
“We are hidden things you mum. Pamela is right an heartbtoken because I broke up with my boyfriend but that doesn’t means I don’t know what am saying” Vicky said.
“BOYFRIEND!!!” Mrs Lane exclaimed.
“Yes mum” Vicky answered a little scared thinking her mum will get mad at her.
“You have a boyfriend and you hid it from me” Mrs lane said.
“Yes mum you never create a time and each time I try to tell you, you always end up getting me angry with the bad advice you always you gave Pamela” Vicky said.
” Pamela do you lie to me?” Mrs lane asked.
“I thought you will scold her” Pamela said.
“Why will I scold her, she’s in college afterall. So Tell me why you broke up with him?” Mrs lane asked.
“He’s not a good guy, his just deceiving her” Pamela said and explained everything that happened to her mother.
“Why is this happening to my children. am not a good mum I have neglected my motherhood for my work.
Even after promising your dad to take good care of the both of you, I still couldn’t do that, am really sorry.
But I promised to deal with this guy’s” Mrs Lane said.
“No mum I won’t allow you to that” Vicky said.
“Am your mum and I am the one that will tell you what to do” Mrs Lane said.
” I am just surrounded with cowards who only use position to threaten other’s life” Vicky said and went towards to her room.
“Did she just called us coward, how could you be so rude” Mrs Lane asked.
she stopped at the front of her door.
“You never teach us not to be rude” Vicky said angrily and slabbed her door immediately she entered.
