The movie started. It was fun. Some where dozing off, the kids where laughing alongside some adult but something different seemed to be going through Naomi's mind. It was about what she heard from the family lawyer. It was still bothering her as she occasionally would take a peek at her mum and soon the movie came to an end. Thank God we're done. I literally was going to piss on my pants. Nelly said going upstairs. Who let the kids choose the movie? It was boring as hell and I couldn't even understand it. Gerald complained. Pops, you're old. That's why you couldn't understand a thing. Those who understand it are quiet young. Maybe you should leave the TV for the youngsters while you focus on work as usual. Marcus said as everyone laughed. You rascal. Gerald said fuming. I enjoyed it but I and my dear wife needs to go to bed. Tom said. Gross. Emily and Max said in unison as Naomi, Mary and Marcus laughed. What? Go get yourself someone. Even if it's a sex partner. Melody said. Too much information. Mary shouted. Nice one mother. Max said laughing. That's good parenting I see over there. Emily said going up the stairs to her room as Mrs. Whitmoore laughed. I'll leave you youngsters to continue your chitchat. She said leaving. I'll join you Cynthia. I have something to discuss with you. Gerald said going up the stairs with her. Marcus, Mary to your rooms. Sonia said as Mary rolled her eyes. Sure mum. She said. Goodnight mum. Marcus said as they went to their rooms followed by their mum. Good night Naomi. Max said standing up. Hey Max. Can I ask you a quick question? Naomi said. Hit me up coz. He answered. Do you maybe know a Steven? She asked. Well, I certainly do not know any Steven. Is he someone I should know about? Max asked. No. Not to bother. I just wanted to clarify something. She said. Ok. Suit yourself but if you need anything, you can come to me. I would be glad to help. Max said Patting her shoulder. Thanks. That meant a lot. She said as he nodded. Well then, I'll beheading to bed. Have a lot of things to do tomorrow. He said leaving.
**†**†******************************Naomi entered her mum's room when she was about to lay on her bed. Hey mum. She said. Hey sweetie. Are you ok. I noticed you weren't with us during the movie session. She said pecking her forehead. I'm ok. It's just that something has been bothering me. Naomi said as they both sat down on the bed. What is it honey. Speak to mama. Mrs. whitmoore said. Who the hell is Steven Mama? Naomi asked as her mom frowned. You really don't need to know. It's not your concern. She replied. It is mum. Especially if you're giving him money from the company. Naomi said as her mum turned to her. Who even told you this? She asked. Does it matter? Naomi asked. Dad willed all his business and property to me which I don't know why he did that since your are his wife but I let you take charge of everything because I personally think it's the right thing to do. So I'll be bothered if anyone squandered the money recklessly. Naomi said as her mother heaved a sigh then smiled. It's nothing of that sort my dear. She said holding her daughter's hand tenderly before leaving it. Steven is a businessman and we give out money to those who can't keep their business running and in turn we either take their company or become a major stakeholder which benefits the company. Cynthia said. Are you sure mother? Naomi asked. Why would I lie to you my dear? If you do not believe me then go ask your uncle Gerald. That's what he wanted to talk about. She verified. Okay mum. I believe you. Since you're telling the truth, there is no need to ask Uncle Gerald. I'll be going to my room now. She said. Ok sweetie. Goodnight and sleep tight. Cynthia said. Goodnight mother. Naomi said as she left.
************************************The family were having breakfast when Naomi came down all dressed up ready to go out when her mum stopped her. Aren't you having breakfast? She asked. No mum. I have to be somewhere. Naomi said. Where are you going? Sonia asked. To the hospital. She said as everyone turned to her while her mum stood up. Are you finally going to die? Nelly asked. Nelly! Cynthia snapped as Nelly smiled sheepishly and shrugged her shoulder as her aunt sucked her teeth and turned to Naomi. What's wrong with you? Are you okay?. Her mum hurriedly asked. Mum calm down. Nothing's wrong with me. Naomi said. Then why are you going to the hospital? Her mum asked. Grandma Nina is at the hospital. Naomi said. Oh my! Isn't that Samantha's grandma? Melody asked. Yep. She's at the final stage of cancer. She'll be dying anytime soon. Naomi said. Well, everyone is going to die someday. Sonia said as Gerald glared at her. That's bad. Should I come with you? Cynthia asked. No mum. You can go and meet her. Know how she's doing. I'm just going to support my friend. Naomi said. I'll go see Abel. I didn't know it was this serious and he didn't say anything to me. Marcus said. How would he tell you? Mary asked. But I'm his best friend. Marcus said. I'll actually be happy if you go see Abel. Naomi said as he nodded and then she left. That old lady was actually nice. Too bad she won't be around for too long. Emily said.
************************************Naomi stopped at a flower shop to get tulips flower for Grandma Nina as it was her favorite before she arrived at the hospital. Sarah was the first to see her. What the fuck are you doing here? She snapped. Sarah that's enough. Klaus said trying to stop her. Oh, please! She deserves much worse. Sarah said folding her hands rolling her eyes. I'm not here for you Sarah. So move out of my way. Naomi warned. Well, I'm here for you and I'm not moving. Sarah said.
