1:Cloudy Morning

I woke up to the sound of the alarm on my phone."Ahhhhh can't a girl get her beauty sleep".I said while trying to shut off the alarm on my phone.I stood up lazily and dragged myself towards the bathroom to get ready for school.

My name is Eliza and I live with my aunt and her daughter Dara my little cousin.I bet you're wondering about my parents,well they disowned me after finding out I had sex with a boy.(which entirely wasn't the truth).My aunt found out about it and she took me in after cutting all ties she had with my Mom and Dad .

After taking my bath I dressed for school and went to the dining area to eat my breakfast,I saw my aunt sitting there with my cousin and was trying to get Dara to open her mouth and eat her food.

"Good morning aunt Debbie"I said greeting my aunt.Good morning Eliza did you sleep well?.i said while sitting and eating my food.

"Yes thank you ma"I replied.

"umm....Eliza i would like to ask you some thing"my aunt said.And i also need your utttermost honesty on it.I was sweating profusely on my forehead,my mind going back to the milk i stole from the fridge.Did she found out?!,is she going to scold me?!all these thought were running through my head.

"umm.....how would you feel if i got ma....married again?."She asked.

I stood there shocked,while the question kept on repeating in my head.As far as I'm concerned,I really wanted my aunt to get married again and be happy with the man she loved,but for some other reason I didn't want her to get married."What if he was abusive like the way my Dad was or what if she started neglecting me after she got married".I didn't want to fall back into depression again and find myself in different hospitals.She did her best for me and I am really happy for her and want her happiness.So who am I to disagree with her choices and decisions.

"I will be very happy for you aunt Debbie,I've always wondered when you will ask me that". I replied her. She heaved a sigh of relief then proceeded on telling she was scared if I would say no.We talked for a while about the man she said she was going to get married to,and all I saw was her smiling and blushing like a teenage girl.I was glad to see her this happy especially after the death of her husband,during our little chat she told me about the milk and my face went pale.I started apologizing,telling her I took it because I was thirsty that night and the only thing my mind could think of was the strawberry milk in the fridge.She told me not to worry that the milk was actually meant for me.

After our chitchat,I bid her and Dara bye before heading to school.
