CHAPTER FOURTY NINE
RUBY
I was packing some stuffs for Scarlet who will be leaving to go see Alondria.
Pepper spray? Scarlet asked when I carefully placed pepper spray inside the bag.
Yes, I answered as I walked to my drawer.
Mom I thought we are only packing snacks, sweets and cookies for Londria, why is there… pepper spray? she asked.
Because she needs to defend herself weakling, that boy is biting more than her can chew, I said putting the three hairpin I made for Alondria inside a small nylon.
They contain poison ofcourse.
I’m not a weakling mom, I just don’t like being violent, she whined.
You can’t even fight or defend yourself, you are so useless to this world, I said with the intention of getting to her but the moron began laughing.
At least i’m useful to you and Londria right? she said staring at the hairpin on my hand.
You only make fighting hard for Alondria because she always has to fight for you too, I said dropping the hairpin inside the bag.
I don’t like to fight, I’m not that strong you know… but I can do few kicks, she bragged.
Like this? I asked as I gave her a small kick and she landed on the floor.
Ouch Mom! Jeez that was hard… oh my butt is hurting, she cried still on the ground.
You see, you can’t even defend yourself, I teased pulling her up.
But mom that was one hard kick, she said rubbing her butt.
Turn around, said
Huh?
Turn around let me rub your butt for you, i said and she ran off.
No way mom! Eww
Thats how alert you should be all the time, I said.
What… do you mean?
You see how quick you ran off? That’s how quick you should defend yourself at any given time, I pointed out.
Oh no mom… I thought we were done with the fight talk , she complained.
Here, I said handing one of the hairpin to her.
For me? she asked in excitement as she made to open it.
You wanna die? I half yelled and she froze.
This contains poison, I said to her.
No it doesn’t, Londria uses it, she defended.
Have you ever touched it? I asked and she shook her head..
She never let’s me close to it.
That’s because this is poisonous, its for self-defense not just for beautification.
No mom.. i don’t want to ki|| anyone,she protested and i burst into laughter.
I ignored her and began showing her how to use it to avoid it getting pierced into her head or hands.
Alondria will teach you how to fight with it but before then… hold on.
I dialed Kyle’s number and he picked immediately, I put it on loud speaker.
? Hey K.
? Good morning Ma’am.
? How is it going with her? I asled.
? She started today… uhm ma’am…
? I’m sending another girl to you for training, this one is a weakling, I’m sorry for the stress, I said knowing he h@ťěs to teach amateurs.
Sorry also because this girl before me will give him the biggest stress of his life
? Ma’am you know…
? Thanks alot Kyle, you should drop by later, I am baking for you right now,I said shutting him up.
? Ma’am? he called
? Yes?
? Your daughter… uhm… ma’am do you think her husband is abusive? he asked.
? What do you mean?
? I don’t know if I’m supposed to tell you this with the way she was hiding it.
? Talk to me Kyle, what is wrong with my daughter.
? I think she was stabbed, I don’t know because she covered it immediately she saw me.
? How? i asked jumping up from my seat as Scarlet stared at me.
? I left her to train, I noticed she was training viciously at first like she was taking out her frustration on the bags but at some point she began looking weak but she continued, I asked her if she wants to stop and she said she’s fine.
So I left her to go get something, when I came back, I met her wiping the blood on her stomach with the bandage she removed from it.
She took down her cloth the moment she saw me standing behind her.
She refused to tell me what happened but from the tiny glimpse I had, I think its a knife or bottle injury, said and I almost fainted.
? How come she never told me this, what the hell happened to her?
? I don’t know ma’am, i was hoping you would know.
? I don’t.. I think i…. i was cut short by the knock on the door.
I have to go,thanks a lot Kyle, I said and hung up.
Who is there? I asked Scarlett who went to get the door.
Its Sarah,she said in excitement as I saw Sarah walk in behind her.
Hey, she said in a tone that I understand so well,she must have heard what her son did.
Hey.. come in, i said as i signalled to Scarlet to finish up while i tucked the hair pin in her hair.
No, no, no… mom please I don’t want to ki|| anybody, she yelled but dared not touch it.
You might just end up ki||ing yourself, I teased as I led Sarah into my room.
How are you doing? she asked nervously.
I’m fine, I replied plainly.
How is your business moving? she asked again.
The bakery is fine, my kids are fine can you go straight to the point now? I snapped for the first time and her eyes widened and watered at the same time.
I.. i want to invite you for a family meeting… i have something i want to say to everyone,she said and I frown.
You know who is your family Sarah.. why tell me?
Please Ruby, this last time, I promise I won’t bother you after this,she pleaded.
What’s this about? Is my daughter safe? I asked.
SAS is already on her way, I just want to talk to everyone, really important Ruby.
Lets go then, i replied after much contemplation.
Thank you so much Ruby, i really appreciate this.
I have to change, I said walking away towards the wardrobe.
Its been long I went out.
I searched my wardrobe for a classy wear, I’m not one to dress shabby even if I’m poor.
I settled for a highwaist not so big white trouser, a white bodycon top and a white jacket then I put on my navy blue shoe, brushed and packed my hair in pony tail, applied a little lip gloss then picked up my purse.
Wow.. you look…. classic and intimidating, Sarah said and i chuckled.
I never lost my taste, I said putting on my dark shade.
Drop that look Sarah, I’m really pissed with you right now but that doesn’t mean we can’t talk like old times,I said pulling her with me.
Thanks Ruby, I hope you can forgive me when you find out that….
That you sent your spies to monitor me? Just shut it Sarah, let’s go, I said walking into the car like its mine while she chased after me.
None of us spoke till we got to the Jacksons mansion.
Mom! i heard Alondria yell as she ran to me.
Guess what?
We were twinning again.
Alondria was also on all white, white crop, a pleated white short skirt and a navy blue boot.
You came mom? she asked after we hugged.
Yeah, I was invited.
I’m sorry about yesterday mom, I know you must be pissed, I promise to punish him on your behalf, she said and I couldn’t help but smile.
Elliot already told me she saw everything and we already spoke on phone.
I can’t ask her about her injury, it will make it hard for her to trust Kyle and I don’t want that,so we just talked.
She left me to go hug Sarah.
From the look on her face, I could tell she loves her mother in law so much.
Mom Sarah said…. I heard Alondria say but Sarah was quick to place her palm on her mouth as they both chuckled.
What is going on baby,I asked Alondria walking towards them.
Baby? She asked.
Ofcourse, you are my baby, come on tell mommy what you were about saying, I said.
I knew it, you aren’t twisting my ears right jow becaose you want to hear it right? she said figuring out my deceit.
Come on, I call you baby sometimes right?
No you don’t,lets go in Sarah.
You are choosing Sarah over me? I asked.
Yes mom, you should wait for Jared, she said and just then Justin drove in.
Dad! Alondria called and walked over to hug him.
Sarah and I stood without saying a word to each other as well watched them.
Another car drove in, it was the little mouse.
No one spoke to him as he got down from the car and began walking towards us.
Justin gave him a mean look before walking in with Alondria.
Let’s go in mom, Jared said trying to pull Sarahs hand.
I’m coming in with Ruby, go ahead, she snapped.
Why are you standing with her? Do you even learn?
Go in Jared, leave me alone, she snapped again.
Reluctantly, Jared walked in reluctantly and I followed him leaving Sarah behind.
Getting in, they were already sitting waiting for us…
What is this about Sarah? Justin asked impatiently and Jared snapped his head at him.
Sarah? he asked.
Shut up! Sarah snapped
What is wrong with you mom!
How can you comfortably sit with the enemy!
This slut and her daughter don’t deserve to be here!
Before we knew what’s happening, a slap landed in Jared’s cheeks.
SAS just got awakened
How dare you? she yelled at him.
Is my mom a joke to you? How dare you repeat this stupidity!
I’m so sorry Ruby, I’m sorry…
Oh my goodness Jared are you out of your freaking mind?
I should be asking you that mom, why are you apologizing?
There is a whole lot you don’t know son.
A whole lot,she said breaking into tears
What do you mean? Jared asked
Sarah? Alondria called hugging her.
What’s wrong Sarah?
I’m so sorry Ruby, all these is my fault, please forgive me.
Mom? Alondria called turning to me.
What’s wrong mom? Jared asked.
Its all my fault.
I caused all the problems we have encountered so far, this, Williams… every d@mn problem, its all my fault.
I am the disgusting slut!
I am the home wrecker! I screwed things up and now Karma is back to hunt me, I’m so sorry, I’m so sorry Justin.
I put you all inti this mess.
I wish I could turn the hands of time, you have been nothing but kind to me Ruby yet I keep doing this to you.
Sarah? I called tearfully.
What’s going on mom?
Can someone say something to me.
Sarah how is my mom…. why are you sorry? Alondria asked and Sarah shook her head.
Justin was engaged to Ruby 40 years ago, but I came between them, tore them apart, she said calmly.
What? Jared and Alondria yelled at the same time.
TBC
Pepper spray? Jared is in deep shirt ?
I can’t wait to see Scarlet train ?
Kyle, you don’t know what you just signed up for
Finally, Sarah needs to sort this.
