"Yes she's friendly and I'm surprised at myself, I like her." Anita agreed with Ben with the remarks .And Olivia was happy to heard that from them
"Wow Olivia must be a special girl!" said Mrs Smith pleased with Olivia.
Alfred got up from the dinning table to excused himself.
"And what about you Fred...?" asked his mother gently
"What about what?" said Fred in a sarcastic manner.
"Have you two meet?" asked his mother questioning
"Yes, she's just the cook, isn't it?" asked Alfred rudely.
"Uhmn!" replied his mother offended with his son remarks on Olivia. Alfred excused himself to his room.
"Olivia don't mind him, that's Fred for you." said Ben "He's just weird!" he continued eating
"Weird, you're right Ben!" giggled Anita
"And mummy. I asked Olivia to come sleep in my room she declined. I don't know if she's afraid of you!" said Anita suddenly.
"Is that true Olivia?" asked Mrs Smith surprised
"No I'm not afraid ma'am, I'm just good with the room I squat!" replied Olivia carefully.
"I didn't say the room isn't good there!" cut in Annie "I just wanted you around me, that's all!" said Anita nicely.
"Olivia don't see me like a boss, you can see me like a mother too. Please honey I want you to be free with your stay here. You're not a slave please know that." said Mrs Smith kindly
"Alright ma." said Olivia pleased
"You mean, you'll sleep in my room?" asked Anita quickly.
"Yes!" replied Olivia laughed.

"Really?" asked Mrs Smith mouth wide opened at her daughter's excitement and Olivia.
"Those two are just like blood sisters!" said Ben chuckled
"Uhmn." said his mom "And I'm happy you guys like her, and I hope Fred do too! You know she doesn't have anyone apart from her grandmother and I would be happy if you guys could be friends with her!" said his mom affectionately
"We're friends already mum!" said Ben softly
"That's my boy!" said his mom smiled "Can you get me my pain relief from my drawer?" asked Mrs Smith gently

At Fred's school in the school cafeteria. Different kids were sitting down having their lunch with different meals cause it was lunch time. Fred and his classmates were sitting at the seniors corner. Fred was sitting beside his best friends, Henry and Cecelia.
"Guys today's my Lil sis birthday!" declared Fred happily
"Really?" surprised Cecelia
Anita entered at the moment with her trays of food that contain banana, juice and snacks.
"Happy birthday Annie!" exclaimed Cecelia smiling face
Annie was amazed and the same time she knew in her mind, it was his brother that told her "Thanks senior Cecilia." said Annie smiled
"Happy birthday Annie!" said Henry cheerfully
"Thanks Henry! Am expecting my gift from you." replied Annie precisely
"Okay girl." said Henry chuckled.
"Alright baby!" said Cecelia suddenly. Anita didn't like Cece calling her baby, she was only one year younger than Cecelia. Anita felt irritated anytime she called her that.
Cecelia like treating Annie like a doll. She likes doing that to her purposely because she knew Annie was tenderly beautiful than her and Annie had many friends. Annie was just like a super star of the school because his brother was just like a Romeo among the ladies and that made her popular.
Cecelia couldn't stand that, even though she knew, she senior Annie with a class gap. Cecelia still feel inferior to her and felt jealous of her beauty. Cecelia was beautiful also but not as Annie. Annie was tenderly beautiful and had the face of an half cast. Her nose was pointed. People usually thought she was a foreigner.
Anita walked away from their seats unaffected by Cecelia's sarcasm and went to sit with her class mates.
At Mrs Smith house. Olivia had gotten used to the house and the environment. Olivia was back from school and was doing her assignments before Anita came to announced to her that they would be going out for her birthday. Olivia was excited at the announcement and she quickly finished what she was doing.

"Can you give me ten minutes to finished my homework." asked Olivia excited.
And she remembered suddenly.
"And I will be making dinner soon, Anita!" said Olivia sadly.
"Today's free day for you and we will be out for long!" declared Anita happily.
"Really?" asked Olivia surprised.
"Yes Olivia!" Anita nodded.
"But I haven't stayed out for long," said Olivia and remembered her grandma warning.
"This is your chance Olivia." said Anita smiled and urging her.
"I don't think I have any beautiful dress to wear to the party." she said impatient.
"I'll give you mine sweetly, and please finished your assignment quickly." said Anita satisfied, and walking out to the door.
"Alright am almost done." she shouted and continued with the home work.
After some minutes, Olivia heard a sound from the door, she thought Anita forgot something again
"Anita?" asked Olivia hesitantly
Ben entered suddenly with a grin on his face.
"It's me Olivia!" said Ben grinning
"Oh Ben!" she said "You scared me."
"Am sorry, and what are you doing?" he asked looking at her work.
"I'm doing my assignment, and I don't know how to draw this skeleton well." said Olivia pointed at the diagram
"Bring it, let me help you to draw." he said.
"Do you know how to draw?" asked Olivia surprised and handed it to him.
"Watch and see." he replied grinning
"Okay!" she was puzzled.
After some minutes, Ben finished drawing the skeleton and Olivia was dumbfounded and hugged him. Anita came in and was surprised to see the two hugging.
"What's happening here?" said Anita enquiring from Olivia.
"Nothing at all, just that Ben helped me with the assignment!" replied Olivia with a smile.
"That's great!" said Anita "And are you done now?" asked Anita.
"Yeah." replied Olivia

"Olivia, what do you think of wearing to the party." asked Anita wanted to know her kind of fashion.
"Anything fit able for the party!" replied Olivia grinning.
