**The next morning**
💎 Elva's POV💎
I yawned, opening my eyes...
It's morning!
I smiled and touched my lips.. the kiss.. last night..🤗
"Come_on Elva stop acting like a teenager who just got her first kiss"I scolded myself before standing up...
Mig and i returned to our room at midnight after we gisted for long at the lake.
I need to get ready for work.
***
I knocked on Fleur's door I'm now clad in a white v_neck gown with black sandals and black bag, my hair is packed in a ponytail as usual.
The door opened and Fleur stepped out clad in a pink shirt withh white pants, pink shoes with a white bag to match, her black Bob hair shone it's obvious she applied some hair cream... her full pink lips curved in a smile... Fleur is beautiful.
"Hey Fleur, good morning"I greeted.
"How was your night?" She asked
"Very fine" I replied
Yeah sure it is"Fleur said and smiled.
What? I asked...
*wait did she know Mig and i kis...*
I thought and felt my cheek heat up.
"Let's go"she said leading the way.
We got to the living room and met Mig and Daisy.
I was a little bit glad they were sitting on different couch. Daisy still in her purple pyjamas engrossed in her iPod as usual while Mig is busy with a magazine.
"Hey Mig, Daisy good morning"I greeted..
"Good morning Elva"Mig replied while Daisy replied me with a glare.
"Good morning Mig"Fleur greeted.
"Morning Fleur"I can see you are both ready to leave" He said.
"Fleur I don't think you have a sight problem... you can see i'm sitting here"Daisy chipped in angrily
"Really?..wow, I'm so sorry I didn't notice you,we were used to be three in the house so I've not gotten used to having a stranger who can't sit her flat buttocks in her own house" Fleur said with a fake smile and i struggled hard to hold my laughter.
Mig bit his lower lip and i know he's also trying to hold his laughter.
"What's that Mig,are you trying to mock me or what because i know you only bit your lower lip while trying to hold your laughter" Daisy said angrily.
Gosh ! Why does she have to know so much about him. *Mtcheew*
"We are actually running late" Fleur spoke before Mig could respond to Daisy.
"Bye Mig" We both said walking out of the house.
"Bye" He said.
I let put a big laugh as soon as we got outside, laughing hard the passer by's were turning to look at me.
"Yeah that serves her right,she shouldn't go to other people's house" Fleur said and also started laughing.
We got to work, greeted the nurses,signed in and parted..
I entered the ward and the children rushed to greet me.
"Hey cutie pies..how are you?" I asked hugging them one after the other.
"Fine Elva" They responded going back to their beds,i walked to my desk, dropped my bag and sat down.
"How was your night?" I asked
"Fine Elva"
"Elva, can't you be staying with us permanently. We don't like Miranda who comes after you've gone..She so mean" Mitch said.
"Yeah" They chorused.
"Geez !! I'm so sorry but i can't stay here permanently,how about i speak with Doc. Steph to change her" I said.
"Yes that's also okay" Dan said and the rest nodded.
"We will start the class after you are done with your breakfast" I said.
"Okay Elva"
I started teaching them some subjects some days back because i can't just bear seeing them like this everyday while their mates are out there studying but they can't, simply because their cruel parents abandoned them.
By the time they are out of here,they would have lacked behind in their studies so why not help them with the little we can,so;
I spoke to the Doc. about it and he approved and even provided us with a big marker board,some note books,text books,pen, and some other writing material.
They all felt happy after i told them i will be teaching them..I stylishly went to the school in the next street to check their syllabus and also a lot of useful things i need to enlighten the children about and I'm glad i grabbed a lot of things.
They are smart,so they grab things easily and i don't go through a lot of stress while teaching them.
I scheduled a seminar for next week, it's about how to improve in teaching.. enlightenment on a lot of things with regards to teaching and some stuffs.
"Elva i did my assignment" Mitch said happily.
"I did mine also" They chorused.
"That's good...Mitch go round and collect it,then bring it to me" I said and she stood up. Eagerly collecting the assignments.
She submitted all the books to me and i started marking .
The cook came in with their breakfast including mine..and I'm surprised she's smiling.
"Good morning ma'am" I greeted together with the kids.
"Good morning all" She responded,her smile grew wider..."today's breakfast tastes nice,i went for some lessons over the week and i learnt a lot..I hope you enjoy it" She said and dropped the big basket on the table before turning to leave.
"I hope so" Mitch said.
"You will know so" The cook said with a smile before she walked out.
I opened the meal and the aroma that welcomed me was...*Wow*
It's cranberry sauce.
It seems I'm gonna have a taste of today's breakfast.
I dished it out for the children,served them round and went back to my seat.
"Wow.."
"The cook has really improved"
"It's yummy"
"She was right"
"I love it"...
They said obviously enjoying their cranberry sauce.
I smiled and started eating mine and the waste was more than 'Wow' she has really improved a lot.
We finished eating and I packed the empty dishes back into the basket,i kept it aside for the cook.
They all finished their breakfast today with nothing remaining in their plates..
"Children...how about we take a nap before starting class" I said.
"Ok Elva" They said laying on their beds.
I placed my head on the desk and slept off.
***
I woke up by some voices shouting ' emergency '.
The children are all awake playing around.
"Ok children, let's start class" I said and they arranged their chairs sitting down quietly.
I walked to the board with a red marker in hand.
Our topic for today is....
***
We finished class few minutes before lunch,the children bombarded me with questions and I'm glad I'm able to answer it all.
They submitted their notes for marking and went back to their beds waiting for lunch.
I was marking when the cook came in,with smiles.
"Ma'am your breakfast was yummy" I said with a smile.
"Yes we like it" The children said and her smile grew wider.
"I hope you will enjoy the lunch also" She said,dropped the lunch basket,carried the breakfast's and walked out.
She now looks happy...I'm glad for that.
Nurse Claire came in immediately i finished serving the children their lunch and i know Ben is already waiting for me outside.
"Thanks Nurse Claire,Enjoy your lunch children,i will be back soon" I said and walked out to meet him.
We walked to the cafeteria chatting and laughing as usual.
We got there and i was surprised to see few ladies outside poking their heads into the cafeteria.
I gave Ben a what-the-hell-is-going-on Look.
He shrugged and led me inside .. I'm curious to know what got the ladies attention.
We entered and i also stood rooted to the spot.
I saw..saw..Mig and Daisy seated like couples and my anger rose.
Daisy leaned over and pecked him on the cheek,i felt my anger overose and stomped towards them.
Daisy should consider herself a dead meat today.
