VICTORIA'S POV
"Aunt Marla?" I shouted as soon as I reached my house.
"Over here!" I heard a distant voice. Following the voice, I spotted aunt Marla and one more man sitting on the patio.
"Victoria. This is my boyfriend Markus that I had told you about. Markus, this is my niece Victoria." She said introducing both of us.
I politely smiled at him before turning on my heels and going inside the kitchen to pour myself some water.
"Hey Markus, I need to talk to my niece about something important. I hope you don't mind. How about I meet you, back at your home?" I heard aunt Marla say to her boyfriend before the sound of a door opening and closing echoed in the house.
"Now, miss Victoria Gibberson, will you tell me, what's going on here? Why am I cooking to know of your departure or should I say disappearing for a month from some random guy?" She said mimicking the cold look, with her hands on her waist in an intimidating manner.
"You knew?" I couldn't help but ask myself.
