Chapter 74 - Chapter 74.

"We seem to be in between Laura and Noah when the issue wants to be settled. We just have to be neutral to avoid being partial. '' I said, opening our room door.

"Yes that's what will happen" Gabriella said sitting on the bed. " Noah is our friend as well as Laura even if she is not our friend we just don't have to be partial in the judgement" she added.

"That's true I like Laura. She has this friendly attitude and appreciative lifestyle. She values people's assistance and doesn't take them for granted," I said.  

That is true Laura keeps appreciating us for our kind gesture whenever she sees us, Even when the help I rendered had been a while that shows Laura is a nice person.

"We both should be careful in interfering with Noah and Laura's issue before we will be used as a settling price" Gabriella said.

Which was a bit confusing to me " I don't get what you just said now" I said in a dazed look.

"I don't want them settling their differences then leaving us both in the dark believing they are still not on talking terms" she replied immediately.

"Can they both do something like that ? I asked.

"No one can be trusted," she said, opening the wardrobe door.

"I see what you are saying, we just have to be careful that's all" I said rolling on the bed.

"Are you sleeping already? Gabriella asked.

"Not yet just stretching myself to relax my muscles and nerves" I said.

I stayed in that same position for some time I felt relaxed doing so the aches I was feeling were all gone.

"Do you want some biscuits? Gabriella asked.

I could only hear her voice because I was lying on the bed.

"Yes," I replied.

She walked to me with a packet of biscuit then poured it into a plate stretching it to me.

"Ohh thanks" I said, collecting it from her sitting up right then taking a nibble.

"This biscuit is creamy," I said, chewing it.

"Yes I bought it during our last shopping " she said," That is my mom's favourite biscuit but I have not eaten it because the brand doesn't look attractive to me but it had been rebranded. I picked it during payment that's when I found I knew the biscuit" she added.

"When next we go shopping I will be getting some more which I will be taking along with me home,The help that home seems to get what she likes and I don't like complaining because she is an elderly woman who will be in her late fifty" I said chewing the last piece of biscuit in the plate.

"You have just a helper? she asked.

"No we have five but this helper is more like an house sitter she had being with us for so long according to the story my mom told, she worked for my maternal granny during her youthful age months later after the demise of granny and my birth she moved with us" I explained.

"Ohhh she had been with the family for so long , that's impressive," she replied.

"Yes, my parents are so comfortable with leaving me with her for months and not troubled because I literally grew up with her. Also she took me as her child which she never had. That's who I will be staying with during the break" I said.

"Mom told me Mason also has some help in his place who we will be staying with when they are away on field work which could be for a month most times" she said.

"When you arrive at Mason's place, try sending the address to me. I will also send mine to you," I said.

"Yes sure I will be doing so" she replied.

"What time will we be having the group reading? I asked Gabriella.

"I don't have an ideal, I will be calling Sera now" she said speaking to siri to call Sera which went immediately then it was picked by Gabriel who told us the early hours of the day would be better so we all can cover lots before it's the close of the day.I could hear all being said because it was on speaker from Gabriella's side. As the call ended between Gabriella and Gabriel, I called Laura who was comfortable with the time schedule we picked then ended the call I was feeling exhausted.

"Please can you return this plate when you are done? I asked stretching it.

"You plan to sleep soon? she asked me to collect the plate.

"Yes I'm exhausted and trying to sleep will be the redress" I replied weary, Gabriella if you plan listening to music tonight can you connect it to your earbud please? I pleaded.

" I don't plan to listen to music tonight. I'm more interested in answering some questions from a science genius app I downloaded a while ago" she said, showing me.

"Ohh that's good" I replied, " Can you send it to me? I asked stretching my phone.

She sent the app to me I tried installed it then opened it trying the first question I got the answer correctly that motivated me to continue I got some right also some wrong which made me start reading from the Ebook app, The exhausted feeling I was having was gone immediately I stayed awake for some hours reading and answering questions. I had this feeling of fulfillment when I was done reading which will assist me for more preparation for the exam.

I had detailed jottings in a note which will give me a guide and it could be used by others also. Now I was feeling exhausted already, reading more will be a waste of time so I slept off.
