Fred didn't leave the sitting room he waited for his mom and others to leave the room. He moved closer to Olivia and asked her about the wrist watch
"Olivia did you see the wristwatch?" asked Fred quietly "Did you take the wristwatch Olivia?" asked Fred again narrowed his eyes on her
Fred waited for Olivia to reply him but she didn't responded as expected. He was getting impatiently and said "Olivia am waiting. How did the wrist watch entered your bag?" asked Fred dark squinted eyes
"You don't trust me Fred!" replied Olivia tears in eyes
"Maybe if you can just explain to me now." replied Fred coldly and added "Moreover you and Anita are just the only people inside the room. How come the wrist watch entered your bag. That's what am confused about." said Fred stepping back
"I know you don't believe me. There's no how am going to explain to you, that would make you believe me." replied Olivia hanging head low
"If you like the wrist watch badly you should have asked me Olivia. I'm very disappointed in you." said Fred disheartened and he walked away from her.
Olivia stood dumbfounded at the same spot, she couldn't move or do anything. Her grandma entered inside the sitting room some seconds ago and she heard everything Fred said to her granddaughter. Mrs bill knew her daughter was innocent from the accusations against her. She moved nearer to Olivia and said to her
"Olivia!" called her grandma gently
"Grandma!" Olivia bursted out emotionally and she was crying uncontrollably
"It's okay dear. I know you didn't steal the wrist watch. It's okay dear." said grandma softly. She moved closer to Olivia and patted her gently on her back.
"I'm very grateful you trust me grandma. I don't know how the wrist watch entered my bag. Am still confused. Who did this to me intentionally, who?" asked Olivia whimpering
"The culprit will be exposed soon dear. Go and get your bag and take this money with you. I will get home back in the evening." replied grandma gently
"Okay ma. I will go and get my bag now." Olivia gathered her belongings from Anita's room and she left their Smith's family house. The week was midterm break for all students at the period. Olivia spent the remaining days with Peter at grandma's house.
Peter was glad to see Olivia back home. He heard about the incident and concluded it was Cecelia that would did that to Olivia
"It's fine now Peter. I'm so glad you and grandma believed me." said Olivia emotionally
"Don't worry Olivia. I'm still your one and only brother you got." chuckled Peter and Olivia laughed suddenly
"You see! I made you laugh again." shouted Peter happily
"Thanks Peter I don't know what I would have done if you're not with me here." replied Olivia affectionately
"You're welcome dear!" said Peter blushingly "Let's go out Olly." he said suddenly
"Okay but grandma will come home very soon. Let me quickly water the garden after that we can now go out!" replied Olivia softly
"Let's water it together then, shall we?" asked Peter cheerfully
"Alright." replied Olivia happily and they both went to the backyard to watered the plants.
At their Smith's house, Fred and his siblings were sitting in the sitting room having their siesta.
Anita was having her cornflakes, Fred was playing video games on his phone while Ben was watching the television. Suddenly Anita broke the silence.
"I don't think it's Olivia that stole the wrist watch. I just have that feeling though." said Anita solicitously
"Me too. I just felt someone did that to her purposely, but the other way round. I don't really know Olivia like that. I mean I don't know if she likes the wrist watch and mistakenly took it upon herself without asking for it. You know. No one is perfect." said Ben trying to turn blind eyes on Olivia's allegations
"Really?" asked Fred eyes wide opened
"Yes!" replied Ben thoughtfully
"Why would she took someone's property that's not cool. I can't be friends with such a person!" said Fred disappointed
"Really Fred?" asked Ben astonished
"Yes you heard me right!" replied Fred cold-hearted
"I thought you like her!" shouted Ben disappointed
"Yes I do but I don't like stealing." replied Fred frankly
Cecelia entered the sitting room unexpectedly and she shouted
"Hi everyone!!!" said Cece smiling
"Hi Cece!" said Ben and Anita surprised
"What's wrong Fred?" asked Cece, she noticed Fred didn't greeted her
"Nothing just pissed up!" replied Fred dryly
"Really what happened?" asked Cece
"Did you see any wrist watch the day you came here?" asked Fred anxiously.
Fred wanted to believe in his heart that Olivia didn't take the wrist watch but his brain wouldn't allowed him to rest. Fred missed Olivia absence and the same time he was still furious about the wrist watch incident
"Yes I saw it!" said Cece nonchalantly
"Really at where?" asked Anita
"With Olivia!" replied Cece
"Really?" asked Ben surprisedly
"Yes, I asked her about it though. She said Fred gave it to her. Did you?" Cece turned to Fred in a pretending manner
"No I don't!" replied Fred surprisedly "And are you sure of what you're saying. I mean did Olivia said that to you?" asked Fred looking intently at Cece. Fred knew Cece wasn't a saint either but he didn't think of Cece back claiming Olivia
"You can called her and ask her. I saw her dropped the wrist watch In her bag before I left the room!" replied Cece confidently
"Really?" surprised Ben
"But Olivia was with Anita in the room when my mom left the house and my mom said she wanted to wear the wrist watch that was when you entered." said Fred frankly looking at Cece bewildered
Someone was knocking at the door and everyone was surprised who could be. Henry came inside the house with a wide grin on his.
"Hello everyone!" shouted Henry giggling
