Chapter 7 - Mrs Roberts

Beep! Beep! Beep! the sounds of the machine attached to the motionless body on the bed and beside the body sat Eliza. She looked up on seeing that the doctor had entered.

"doctor is my brother alright?" Eliza asked .

"he is but the money needs to be deposited before we can begin." He stated.

"can't you start without the money, I promise to pay on time please." She said on the verge of tears.

"I'm sorry we can't,excuse me." The doctor said and left.

"so are you coming for the party tonight." Stella asked as they walked down the large hallway.

"what party?" Amanda asked suprised.

"don't tell me you forgot so soon, it's Jayson's party tonight." She sighed as she turned to face her friend.

"so?" Amanda shrugged.

"it's gonna be the talk of the campus." She boasted.

"yeah but I'm busy besides didn't the lecturer say that all projects should be submitted before the end of this week." She asked.

"yes but we can still work on that later." She replied.

"just come for the party you'll enjoy it." Ella pleaded shaking Amanda.

"okay but I don't have any good clothing for the party". She sighed.

"don't worry we could go shopping later I'll text you the address don't be late." She smiled as she waved her bye.

"Eliza what's wrong with you, you've been moody all day." Chloe asked worriedly.

"it's nothing I just want to be alone." She replied.

"we can't just leave you alone." Addie said.

"enough didn't I say you girls should go I want to be alone, get out." She yelled as Chloe and Addie stood up and left closing the door behind them.

KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK!

"whose there". A feminine voice asked from the other side of the closed door.

"it's me Eliza." Eliza replied.

"I'm coming." The woman said as the door flung wide open for Eliza to come in.

"Eliza dear it's been so long how are you?" She cried as she hugged her.

"Nanny I missed you so much." Eliza said as she broke the hug.

"what brings you here and how's Daniel." She asked as she led her into the living room.

"everything's fine I came to see Mrs Roberts." She replied indifferently.

"Elizabeth dear don't speak in that way about your mother." She said as she sat Eliza down.

"really nanny is that what you're saying? don't you remember how she abandoned my brother and I for her so called modelling career." She yelled with fury in her voice.

"my dear that's not the right way to talk to one's mother." She said softly as she calmed her down.

"nanny please don't talk about her again, I just hate her, I hate her, she's so selfish, she doesn't care about us it's only her career." She cried.

"it's okay dear, calm down." She said hugging her tightly.

"is that you Eliza." Eliza could never forget,that voice, the that person had caused her and her brother so much pain.
