One a faithful morning just few minute after i entered the class room "Anna ,Anna" my mrs violet teacher called out my name that am being called to the principal's office, my mind started raising that could i have done this time? because lately have really being visiting the principal's off. Throughout last week have been getting from one trouble to another I didn't submit my essay, I even got into a fight with my best friend Evelyn because I figured out she did not turn in my essay like we discussed. Does were the things going through my mind when I entered the principal's office, immediately I enter his office his expression changed, then he said that my mum's call is outside to pick me so I just asked "what happened" he didn't say anything he was just so sad and he was looking like he was going to cry, so I just ignored him and just when I got outside truly I saw my mum's driver he was also looking really so soba and I think he had been crying.
Getting to the car he open the door and am in, on my way to the house i asked him "is there any problem" he did not answer but he's expression was saying otherwise, Almost immediately I shouted his name, for him to stop the car, that was when I realized he has been crying and he then told me that there was a fire at home that my mum and my baby brother just passed away in the fire accident at home. I just couldn't believe what I just heard, I told him if it's a prank he should stop that am not in the mood for that, since he could not answer me, i just sat there did not do anything was like i became mute all of a sudden, when i got home with the driver almost all of her family member were already present there, most of them was weeping while some were just quite, my mom sister that is always so load and noisy did'nt say anything she was just at a corner weeping she is even out of her breath for crying too much, am not so sure if she was actually crying that much because of my mum passed away ,probably the problems that will arrived after or maybe because of something else, because obviously my mum was the main provider for the family, she was always looking out for the rest of the family, i just had a flashed of when my mum told me a story of when she just started a high paying job at a very prestigious company and her sister recently got pregnant and did not know who is responsible for the pregnancy it was my mum that took responsibility for everything the baby needs and even the mother, because non of her boyfriend showed up and that she started giving she and huge amount of money every month to take care of her sister at a very young age because my mum got a job just immediatly she graduated from school from then the family have actually been depending on her ever since is not like my dad is not working but is not really enough it like my mother is the head of the family because she practically provide most of our need.
Throughout the whole driving I couldn't stop crying was just sitting there weak and couldn't even talk, just there crying and laying helplessly on the back seat of the car. just after the burial my father decided we stay with gramma for some time, so i went upstairs to pack some of my belonging and then we are off to gramma's.
The sound of off loading woke me, we already at gramma's house, at the front of her house there are people outside waiting to console my gramma, this went on for day, into weeks people keep going in and out of gramma's apartment, I haven't been going to school or even going out, within that period of time I was grieving have noticed that my nanny followed us to my gramma's place she's around taking care of everyone she was the only survivor of the fire that day because my dad is at work i shouldn't be thinking much of it ,it just really got me thinking, we stayed at gramma's place for like two month throughout our stay my dad has been planning and fixing things at home for us to go back home, because that my mom's house, finally we went back home and have also been trying to put myself together arrange for school, my dad already told me a night before that am resuming school next week.
Three months after my mum and my sibling death that we moved back I noticed again that the nanny is literally everywhere again cooking, cleaning and even trying to act all nice and beautiful around my dad ,I also noticed she's been cleaning in a very suspicious way in some ways/ she's always on short even if she's wearing a gown it's either really short or very slited always on short and open clothes, am sure sure she's out to get my father's attention, I also caught her sometimes wearing my mother's apron so i confronted her about it then she said "it just a piece of clothing" and just stormed off, so i told my dad about it he said it was nothing like i was thinking then i asked him what he thought i was thinking because am starting to think am not the only one that noticed what she's been trying to do and my dad did not say anything about it, I c I couldn't forgive her but my dad was just saying it's just an apron
One this faithful day I really haven't been doing well at school, the teacher now is always send me to the principal's offices I just lied and told him that don't really feel good that I wanted to go home, so on that day I got home early then I started hearing noise from my dad's bedroom as I get closer to the house the noise became loud, that time I was 15 years old so I knew when people are banging, just couldn't believe my dad will start dating so soon and I was really curious who the person was, as i get closer the sound become really load because of curiosity I open the door on them and their was my nanny on top of my dad i just couldn't believe my eyes ,though have actually foreseen this, just didn't expect my dad to be this fast about replacing my mum.
I stormed outside immediately I saw them, to the backyard then started crying, I was so sure my dad will follow me almost immediately but he didn't even stand up was just there looking at me without saying a word after like 30minute she came to me and said the both of them lost control of there emotions and she went on to tell me how much she loved both my dad right from when they were in high school that she always liked my dad right from time before she then finds out his married, but deep down of me I knew she was up to something because she didn't sound real sincere at all, my dad later came by to my room to further talk to me about what i saw it was a mistake that he didn't even know how hw got there, that it wouldn't happen again.
One Saturday afternoon my dad wasn't around, and then the maid had a visitor, i knew that she looks really suspicious so i stood behind the door listening to every one on her conversation with the man that just came in, I had my suspicions but this time am so sure she was the one that set my parents house on fire that killed both my mother and baby brother. After i finished listening to she and her parthner,i just wen to my friend's place tho relax my head
