Chapter 15: Are You Having An Affair?

I went back to join then at the table. By the time I got there, the visitors were already leaving. I went to my room and about some minute later Zoe came to inform me that mother want me. I followed her to my mother chamber.

She was sitting in her usual position. She never gets tired of that couch and Philip never get tired of standing before her. He was like a pet to my mother.

“What’s it I heard?” My mom asked

I look at Zoe who was smiling wickedly. “I don’t understand you mom.”

“Are you having an affair with the chosen one, are you having something with him?”

I wasn’t surprise; I saw Zoe earlier ear dropping on my conversation with Mavis and told my mom. She was actually the big mouth type.

“A baobab’s is forbidden from falling in love while on task neither falling in love with the wanted. I was brought up by a good tutor and I know the rules very well.” I answered calmly.

“Fairly enough. You may leave.” She answered pleased with my respond.
