Chapter nineteen

Ida's POV

I almost fell asleep when my phone started ringing.I grabbed it from the small glass table and cracked an eye open to see who the caller was.It was mom.

"Hello mom"I grogged

"Are you drank"My mother asked with concern

"No mom.I was just about to sleep when you called"

"Oh I'm sorry"She apologized

"It's fine"

" Ida I have news to tell you"My mother began excitedly

I sat up on my bed and listened attentively

"You'll be moving here with us,soon"Her voice beamed woth excitement

"Really?"I asked taken aback by her

"Why are you not happy,You could get spend enough time with us here"She said dimly

"Oh yeah you're right and when is that"I asked sadly

"In a week,I think"

"Ok mom,thank you for calling"

"I love you Ida,bye"

"Bye-Bye mom"

I cut the call and put my phone on the table.

I pulled my long black hair backwards as my face little witg disapointment and sadness.

I didn't want to leave not now that I had a friend and our friendship was going pretty well.

I sighed and I went to sleep.

The knock on my door alerted me as I opened the door for the waiter.

A boy walked in with a tray and placed it my bed.

"Thank you"

"You're welcome ma'am"

When he left I went to the bathroom to shower and dressed up in the same attire I was wearing yesterday.

I felt really uncomfortable wearing the same clothes but the coffee refreshed me.I gobbled down the omelette,grilled sausages and fruut salad before I packed all of my belongings and headed downstairs.

"Has your breakfast been served ma'am"the receptionist asked as she handed my car keys to me.

"Yes"I took the keys fron her and went to the parking lot.

I would stop by Xoey's house to inform her of the news before I go home.

I parked my car on her street and I was surprised to see a moving van infront of her house.

Men were carrying boxes into the van and I scurried to one who was lifting a box from the lawn.

"Hey.I'm Ida.Are they moving today?"

"Yep"He answered as he put the box into the van

"Are they at home"I asked worriedly

The man looked at me and chuckled"No.They left this morning in a taxi"

"Thank you"

He didn't reply and continued his work.

I sat in my car and sighed heavily ads I placed my hands on the steering wheel.I recalled Xoey telling me that they would move to their aunt's house but where was it?

I started my car and drove home.

Xoey's POV

"Hurry up Dianna"My mother shouted at Dianna as she got into the taxi and closed the door.

Dianna was lacing her shoes and she hoped on one leg as she laced her sneakers.

When she was finally done she sat beside me and closed the door.

"Sorry mom.I couldn't find the other lace"Dianna told my mom

"It's okay"

"Please take us to the fifth junction from this street"

My mother told the annoyed driver and he started the car.

"I'm excited to meet them"Dianna whispered to me

"Are you?Or you're just excited to see their house?"I rose a brow and stared at her.

"Welll maybe.Part of me wants to see the house and part of me wants to meet the family"Dianna said excitedly.

The car came to halt when we stopped at the required junction.

We got out and my mother paid him.

"Is this the place?"Dianna asked my mother ,disapointed,as she looked at the moving cars

"No.we'll have to walk from here because their house is somewhere more like in a corner"My mother told Dianna as she patted her hair.

We followed our mother as she walked to a thin street and stopped infront a huge gate.

"We're here"She whispered.

My mother rang the bell and we waited untill the a security man opened the gates.

"Wow" I whispered to myself

The house was big and painted white.

Three cars where packed on the compound and flowers were planted around in flower vases.

"What do you want"The security man asked rather strictly.

When my mother was about to answer,a maid walked to him and whispered something into his ear.

He stared at us with disgust and told us to follow the maid.

We followed the maid into the huge living room.The place was lit with orange light and the place was filled with beautiful furniture.

A woman wearing a long silky nightgown came to us.Her hair was tied into a ponytail and she was barefooted.

"Sharon! long time no see"She hugged my mother

She looked at us and smiled widely"are these your daughters' "

"Yes"My mother answered excitedly "This is Xoey,she's the elder and Dianna is the younger"

We both waved her and she pinched our cheeks playfully.

"What lovely girls you've got"She told my mother

"Girls,this is your Aunt,Carrie"

"Let me show you your rooms"She told us.

We climbed the staircase and she opened the door to reveal a purple room.

The was a huge bed and a glass table,a study table and chair, closet and a huge table.

"This your room Dianna"She told my sister.Her eyes lit with surprise and excitment.

She walked slowly into the room,covering her mouth with her hand and sliding the other hand on the varnish surface of the glass table.

"I made them paint the room purple because yor mother told me that it's your favourite colour"

"Thank you aunt,I love you already"Dianna hugged her and blurted.

"Its okay.This is nothing"

Aunt Carrie showed me my room which was blue.It had the same features as Dianna's.

"I'm sorry they couldn't repaint the room to your favourite colour,your visit was unexpected"

"Its okay Aunt,I also like blue"

She hugged me"Have you had breakfast already"

"No Aunt,we haven't"

"Ok then I'll let the maid bring some breakfast to you and your sister,I'll be downstairs with your mom"

She almost left my room when I called her

"Aunt,Thank you very much"

"Its nothing"

Hailey's POV

"Wow!"I exclaimed as my eyes beamed with delight.I held up a pendant and bracelet made of beads and showed them to my besties.

Raven snatched it from me and laid it in her palms.

Catherine,Adelaide and Gwyneth came closer to her to see the necklace.

"Whoever did this is very creative"Catherine licked the icing of her fingers.

"What says the time?"I asked Catherine

"6:50"

"What!!I need to go home now"I packed the gifts into a trash bag stood up quickly.

"See you"I kissed the cheeks of my best friends and sighed heavily

"You can have the cake guys.There's plenty at home"

I waved my besties and got into my car.My body guard put the gifts in the back seat.

"I'll be home very soon ma'am"He said politely

"Don't come home again.I don't need you"I replied rudely and drove away.

I dragged the heavy bag of gifts to my bedroom and laid on the carpet.

My mother walked into my room.

"Hey Hailey did you have fun?"She asked as she lifted the gifts and put it on my bed.

"I didn't want to come there.I wanted you to have fun alone with your friends"

"Thanks mom"I wanted to tell her about what happened between Andre and I but I didn't because I know she would get really angry at him and I don't want to spoil business relationships.

"You got a lot of gifts"She examined the huge pile inside the trash bag and opened it.

"Impressive.I must say,people relly love you at school"She added.

I giggled.

"I have also taught about it with your father and he said I should return your gadgets and connect your Wi-Fi"

I couldn't belive what I had just heard.I was dancing inside me.

I hugged my mother and thanked her

"Thank you mom.I love you"

"I love you more"
