It was six- thirty on Monday morning, Miranda's alarm rang repeatedly until she got up and turned it off and dozed off again.
Miranda woke up again at six-forty then it dawned on her that it was Monday and she was supposed to be at work Early as a new worker.
" Mira, Mira". Ellen called her as she knocked on her door repeatedly
" I'm coming". Miranda answered as she walked to the door and opened it for her sister.
" Morning Mira". Said Ellen.
" Morning Ellen". Mira replied . Recently, Mira forgot how to greet her sister every morning.
" You are supposed to be dressed up by now Mira". Said Ellen.
" I was about to prepare before you came in". Said Miranda.
" Okay but you have to be fast about it, it's your first day at work you don't want to give your Boss a bad impression about you especially not on punctuality". Said Ellen.
" Okay thank you" said Miranda as she was about to go in she stopped " Ellen how did you know about my new job because I don't remember telling you about it".
Ellen smiled" well, kid sister there are many things you have not told me but I will find out myself so go and get dressed for work". She said.
" You did not answer my question Ellen". Said Mira.
Well I picked your call last night and it happened to be your Boss he said you should report Early to work today". Ellen explained to her.
Miranda was scared thinking that Ellen might have seen some of Dave's numerous messages then she remembered that her phone had a password.
" But why did you you pick my call?". Said Miranda.
Ellen was surprised at the question" It was ringing non-stop and you never had a problem with me picking your calls or Accessing your phone so why the sudden change, And I also noticed that you have a password on your phone too why? Said Ellen.
" Get ready for work Mira you will be late". Ellen said and left Miranda's room.
Miranda knew that she had hurt her sister by keeping secrets from her." I'm sorry Sis ". Miranda said to herself.
Miranda went into the bathroom, took her bath as fast as she could and came out while drying her body with an extra clean towel.
She lotioned her body and brought out a short black skirt,a white top and a black jacket.
After dressing up she brought out a pair of black heels from her shoe rack and wore it then she stared in her dressing mirror.
" Wow Mira you look as gorgeous as ever, sorry for those who lost you". Miranda said to herself then she swirled around.
Miranda looked into the mirror again and let her long black hair fall backwards then she applied some Baby pearls on it and combed it.
" Hmmm, Mira you can do this, nothing happened Mira, you are fine and you are strong so kick it off ". Said Miranda while snapping her fingers in the air then picked her bag and left her room.
Ellen sat down in the sitting room sipping a cup of warn milk while watching her favorite TV show.
" Hey Ellen, I'm off to work and you seem so relaxed aren't going to work today!". Asked Miranda.
" I thought I told you last week that I was given two weeks off work" Ellen answered coldly.
Miranda was not surprised because she knew the cause of her sister's coldness towards her.
" Look Ellen I'm sorry I promise to make it up to you" Miranda pleaded with a baby face.
Ellen looked at her " you should leave now before you will be late for work" said Ellen as she looked away.
Miranda sat close to her sister and hugged her tightly" If you are upset with me big sis how would I concentrate at work today". Said Miranda almost in tears.
Ellen noticed that Miranda was about to cry and she does not like seeing her like that." Look Mira you cannot cry before going to work if not you will dull throughout today". Said Ellen.
" So why don't you want to forgive me Ellen ?" asked mira.
Ellen raised her head up and wiped her tears with the back of her palm and said to her" Mira you are my baby sister I can't be upset with you not even on your first day at work".
"Are you sure Ellen or are you are just trying to pacify me?".
" No baby, I'm sure ". Said Ellen.
Miranda smiled widely b" Thank you Ellen, how about dinner after work today". Said Miranda.
" Oh No! I would have loved to have dinner with you but I have a date with Daniel.
Miranda frowns a little " Oh! okay".
" But you can actually go on a date with Dave to celebrate your knew job how about that?". Said Ellen.
At the mention of" Dave" , The images of Dave and Angel on the same bed together started coming to Miranda then she felt weak.
" To Earth Mira". Said Ellen while snapping her fingers in front of her " Are you okay Mira?".
Miranda shook her head" yeah, sure".
" No you are not fine Mira and you know it". Said Ellen
Miranda picked her bag " I should be on my way now. Good bye". She said and left quickly to avoid further questions from Ellen.
Ellen held her forehead and relaxed on the sofa " Oh! Dear baby girl I hope you are fine. But there's something fishy Dave, Dave what could that be".
She drank the remaining milk and went upstairs to her room to rest and prepare for her date.
