This is my house

The next day morning was Wednesday and I h decided to go to school, I have missed a lot already. Daniel and his sister were lucky to be on break. I call Gladness and asked her to make me potatoes, as I woke up hungry. I still can not believe I am rich, for the first time in my whole life I understood what it means to be a part of the Wisdom family. And why Elizabeth was so surprised I was from the Wisdom family.

Wealth was really our most suited Name. I wonder why we changed to Wisdom. And I also wonder why Dad my uncle will not tell me about my father. I took out the pictures of my parents I had and it was the first time I notice one of them was talking right here in the wealthy mansion.

Now I understood why it was called the wealth mansion. God had me cover I thought. I was just getting walked up over nothing. I can not wait to get to school and tell Elizabeth.

I took my bath and got dressed. I was already used to eating my food in the kitchen or room. But Gladness ask me to use the table, it was my house and I had nothing or no one to be afraid of. I took my food and hurried to the table, I had to leave the house on time, if I did not want to be late for class.

I sat down and was eating my food peacefully until Daniella come to stand beside me and asked me to get up that I was sitting on her chair. I moved my food to the next chair and was about to get up but then I sat back. No one is going to bully me in my own house again I thought.

Well Daniella this is my house I own everything in it. So if you don't mind I am eating I answered. That was what Mrs. Wisdom told me, one day when Daniella took the only toy I had as a child, even when she had many.

Daniella got angry I could see she raise her hand to hit me. That is what she will do on a normal day. But everything has changed now. I will not do that if I were you I comment without looking at her. She dropped her hand and moved to the next chair.

That's Daniella's chair and you know it, Mrs. Wisdom who just joined us said. .

And this has been my house for the past seventeen years and you knew it, yet you treated me like trash, I replied.

Are you talking back at me? she aske. I looked at her and rolled my eyes at her. For the first time in my whole life I looked straight into Mrs. Wisdom's Eye and was not afraid. She raised her hand to slap me, like I knew she would, I quickly used my hand to hold hers on the Air. The last time you hit me, will be the last time you ever will in your entire life.

I dropped her hands. This is my house I will sit where ever I feel like sitting and do whatever I like to do, whenever. You have no right to question me I snapped right to her face. Anyone who does not like it here is welcome to leave, I said.

I have lost interest in my food, this is the last time you will interrupt my meal mother and daughter I said

Daniel had climb down the stairs and he watched all the drama. Bella that's rude and not nice he commented.

Well, your mother never taught me respect or the meaning of niceness. Tell your mother and sister to stay away from my Business or they are welcome to leave I said. I took my bag and as I walked out I heard Daniel laughing it seems you will be needing saving Ella he said to his sister.

I smiled but I was not so proud of myself for being rude. But I have kept so much bitterness for years and I could not help myself. I was happy Daniel was not angry with me, he is the only family I have left.

I knew Mrs. Wisdom will not leave the house. She cared so much about social statuses. what will she Tell all her wealthy friends, that her husband's little trash like she calls me, is the owner of the wealthy mansion? She likes to be Queen Bee, the one who married the Wisdom family.

The only reason why I will not tell her to leave was that Dad my uncle, was so nice to me and Daniel. I got out of the house and since my car was at the apartment I asked the driver to drop me off so he could return with the car.

I got to school and I told Elizabeth about the turn of things. She was very happy for me. Mostly since I did not have to drop out of school. After class Elizabeth and her driver dropped me off at the apartment. I pick a few things that I will be needing for school the next day and drove to the mansion. One thing was clear to me. The fact that Mrs. Wisdom will be up to no good. I am sure she will not just sit back and watch me have a happy ending.

I have no plan of stay at the mansion for all I know Mrs. Wisdom can get me kidnap or poisoned. I was only going back to the mansion to meet with Gladness. she was helping me get a lawyer that will follow me to the Agency on Monday and also a private detective to watch Mrs. Wisdoms every move. I plan on getting a camera for my apartment which will be directed to my system and the agency. I was less scared about her trying to kill me anyway as that will lead to losing the mansion and every other thing in my name.

I got to the mansion and went straight to my room to freshen up. At about seven pm one of the maids came to call me for dinner. I went to the dining table where Mrs. Wisdom and her children were already eating.

I took a sit. One of the maids was trying to serve me. Who made the food? I asked. It was madam she answered politely. By now all the maids are aware I was the real boss of the house so they all became very respectful. By madam, I knew she meant Mrs. Wisdom. Don't bother serving me, I have no plans of eating poison, I said.

Call me Gladness. She left and Gladness come a few minutes later. Gladness please make me something to eat I said. yes ma she answered and walked away. But there is enough food on the Table Daniel said.

Sure but I don't think am ready to eat my last meal, I replied getting up. That's not nice he muttered. Trust me Dan it will not be the first time I said and walked away.

I was allergic to spice but Mrs. Wisdom used it to cook rice one morning and I almost die. How can I be sure she did not use it today? If Gladness did not have any of my shots left or got to me in time I would have died. When Gladness brought my food to the room she told me she had found a trustworthy lawyer and the private detective to help me investigate and follow Mrs. Wisdom. I don't want any more surprises. And the fact that she and the family lawyer were friends, made me stay alert. After eating I told Gladness that I would stay back at the apartment as the presence of Mrs. Wisdom made me feel unsafe and angry.

come with me she said.

I followed her to the Attic, there I saw more pictures of my mum and Dad. Gladness told me she started working at the mansion a few months after I was born. Grandma was dead by then. She told me my mum and Dad were very nice people. The only part I found hard to believe was the fact that Mrs. Wisdom was always fond of me and I liked her a lot as a baby.

Of course, this was before my parent's died. One question remains unanswered to me, as I went to bed that night. Gladness said that when Dad my uncle and his wife moved in. They took off all of my parent's pictures and replaced them with theirs. That was understandable but why will they ask them to burn up the pictures. Why? What could be the reason I kept thinking about it till I slept off.
