Chereads / UNCANNY ENCOUNTER / Chapter 10 - CHAPTER TEN

Chapter 10 - CHAPTER TEN

This morning was tense. Marcus stated entering the lounge. I seriously thought they were actually going to start combat fighting. Naomi stated sitting down. But seriously, what's the deal with you're mum? Emily asked referring to Mary. Aren't all mother's annoying and meddling? Mary asked as Emily nodded. True. She agreed as she brought out her phone standing near the pillar pressing her phone. I really thought you're mum was going to explode. Marcus stated laughing. I literally thought I saw an invincible volcano about to erupt. Mary said mimicking Cynthia as they all laughed. God damnit Naomi. You're mum's scary when she's pissed. I almost shit my pants. Emily said as they all laughed. Well I understand her. She's the head of the family and handling the business as well as everyone else under one roof is depressing especially my mum and now auntie Sandra. Mary said as they all nodded when Nelly came in. What are you all obnoxious children doing? I wonder what you guys are discussing? She asked as Mary and Emily rolled their eyes while Naomi and Marcus kept on with what they were doing. If you like be rude and not say anything. It's not like you kids have anything to do other than cause trouble and create a nuisance. She added folding her hands. Yeah, right. Emily said pointing at her. Grandma if you're done can you leave us kids to be done with our nuisance. Emily said making the others chuckle. What do you mean by that? How dare you talk to me like that? She said then smiled. Aren't you tired of being the black sheep of the family? The ones who causes trouble in the house? Nelly asked. No I'm not. I love it. Emily replied her as naomi just shook her head smiling. Nelly , you and I are of the same age. Emily is older. So please if you're trying to address us, do it properly. Naomi said. Besides Mary and Marcus are the only kids here. She said trying to contain her laugh. Shut up. Nelly said. Don't you dare tell me what to do. She said folding her hands. What do you all know. Just a bunch of nothings. She continued. Nelly if you don't mind I'm reading. Could you bring you're voice down or go somewhere else. Mary said as Marcus snickered. How dare you? Nelly said trying to slap Mary when Emily held her hands. Don't you dare. Emily said throwing her hands away. Nelly was going to say something when Emily interrupted her. I've had enough of you're nonsense. Who do you think you are? She asked as she folded her hand too. May I remind you, you're a nobody and a nobody has no right to meddle with other people's business because they don't matter in the society. Now take you're God forsaken intolerable self out of here before I make you move. Emily said as Marcus laughed. She got you good. Didn't know you had it in you em. Marcus said as Mary smiled. Go cuz. Show this bitch her place. Mary said as Nelly screamed. How fucking dare you? She said slapping Emily on the face as Emily gasped. She did not just do that. Naomi asked as Marcus scoffed. She's in deep shit. He said as Emily gave Nelly two striking slap which landed her on the floor immediately as Mary and Marcus stood in shock while Naomi was gobsmacked. Pick on someone of your own size. Emily taunted as a real fight started. Fight 2:0. Marcus said as they were trying to separate the two. We're going to be in big trouble. Mary said holding Nelly. That's enough you two. Stop it. Naomi said pulling Nelly. Cut it out. Mary said. Stop fighting before the elders come over but seriously Emily, give this horrible girl what she deserves. Hit her so hard. I'm rooting for you. Marcus said as Mary stepped on his toes. Ow! What was that for? He asked. Not helping. She glared as he rolled his eyes helping to separate the two girls when Naomi's phone rang. It was Ardi. You two hold them up. I'll be right back. She told them as Mary nodded while Marcus groaned. Really! He said as she left to pick ardi's call. "hey". She said. "Hey!". He replied when he heard the commotion. What's that noise? He asked as she sighed. Today has been a lot. I can't even breathe properly. She complained. Why? What's wrong?. You want to come over? He rushed. I wish I could but I can't. My family needs me at this moment. I'll call you whenever this is all settled. She said. I understand. It's ok. Just call me if you need anything. He said as she smiled a little. Thanks. I really appreciate. She said. Don't sweat it. I gat you. He said. A little help her Naomi. Mary shouted as she mused. I think this is my call now. Talk to you later. She said. Sure. He answered as she cut the call going back to the fight.

************************************Naomi, Emily, Marcus, Mary and Nelly are seen standing on a straight line facing the elders. Emily's face was a little bruised while Nelly had it coming. My baby. What happened to my baby. Sandra said running up to her child with tears in her eyes as every touch she gave her daughter brought pain. Mother please don't touch me. I'm in pains. Nelly complained feeling irritated as she groaned. Sandra went up to Emily. How dare you touch my daughter? Who gave you the rights? Even I as her mother have never tried to raise a hand on her and you did it. She shouted. No wonder she's so spoiled to rotten. Naomi muttered as Mary whispered to Marcus. What's wrong with this mother and daughter? They keep saying" how dare you". Is there something about that phrase I don't know about? Mary asked as Marcus chuckled making everyone turn to them. Sorry. They said in unison as Sandra turned to Melody. Sister, how do you train you're kids? You gave birth to a hoodlum who goes around beating up everyone who comes in contact with her. Sandra accused. That's enough San. I won't stand here and watch you insult my daughter. We can all clearly see the bruises on my daughter's face which clearly means that Nelly was clearly involved in this fight. Does that mean you're daughter is also a hoodlum? Melody said as Sandra tried to speak when Sonia cut her. Sandra there's no need stretching this matter. Let the head of the house decide this. Stop causing a ruckus here. We all know that you're daughter wasn't trained properly. She said. Why does it feel like I'm proud of mum for the first time? Marcus asked. That's because I'm actually proud of her too for the first time. She spoke well. Mary said as Sandra scoffed. I really don't need to talk to you because clearly you don't know how to raise a kid. Sandra said as Sonia just smiled and shrugged. At least my kids can never be like this. She said checking Nelly from her head to her toe as she shakes her head. Too bad. She said. Don't you dare look down on my daughter. Sandra said. Stop overreacting Sandra. Cynthia said. I'm overreacting? You think I'm overreacting? She scoffed. Just take a look at my daughter's beautiful face. We all know she's more beautiful than this stinky face and she's jealous. That's why she did this to my daughter. She said as the kids snickered while Emily scoffed. Mind telling me why this seems funny to you all or do you all think I'm lying? She asked. Can we all get to the point now? We're wasting a lot of time for something that isn't even important. Sonia said. Sonia. Cynthia warned as she just rolled her eyes. Look if you're going to punish us so be it but don't be overly dramatic. Just place an ice bag on her face. Emily said as Sandra turned to her and gave her a slap. Don't ever speak when I'm around. She said as Melody slapped her back. Don't you ever lay a hand on my daughter ever again. Melody said as everyone was shocked. Remind me why I love aunt Mel again. Mary said as Marcus chuckled. I can sense a fight coming up. Marcus giggled as naomi rolled her eyes. What's it with you and fights Marc? Naomi asked and before Marcus could answer a fight had already started. Oh, no. Marcus and naomi said at the same time. Told ya. Marcus said. What's going on today. Naomi groaned feeling a headache come up. I'm sick and tired of this constant nonsense. Cynthia said also feeling a headache coming. Tony, Tony. She shouted as he came running down but was shocked to see the fight. Call Mandy and some servants. I need anything that can create more noise than these fools her and make sure you got it very loud. She ordered. Yes ma'am. He said leaving. These people are sure to make me go mad someday. She said sitting down and watching them disdainfully. Mum what are you doing? Naomi asked. Watching the fight. You should join me honey. She said. Join you? She scoffed. Mum are you okay. What's going on? You're supposed to help separate this fight. Naomi said. Honey I'll do no such thing. I'm not going to die early because of my family members. She said while Naomi tried persuading her.
