MEGHAN's POV
I woke up with what noise I heard from outside. Even though my room is soundproof.
I got dressed so I could go down comfortably especially on Saturday.
When I came down, I did not expect that beaten woman to be here. She was like a queen sitting on a soft sofa while watching T.V.
"Hmm ..." I noticed. She turned around and smiled.
"Hi Goodmorning." she greeted me warmly.
"What is the good in the morning?" I asked calmly and walked to the kitchen.
"Wait! What's wrong with you huh?! And you're courage to answered me back?!" she said still calm.
Wow! Too courage!
"You. Yourself," I answered shortly and smiled sweetly at her.
"Why? Do you want to get you out of here? You're just my husband's adoption!"
I was amazed at the thickness of her face. I did not expect to have another woman like this. The thick-faced stupid asshole. And will she evict me from here?
"Hahaha! Are you joking right?" I said laughing and crossed my arms in front of her.
"Of course not!" she said angrily to me while looking badly.
"Oh I thought you were joking. Your face is funny," I said and smiled at her before continuing to walk. I was surprised when she grabbed my arm and slapped me.
I did not lose my class, I slapped her triple the force of her slap on me. It blushed with great force so she shouted.
"Oucccch!"
I crossed my arms in front of her while holding her cheek that slapped by me. But I was surprised when Gov's came here. So he did not go to municipal? He approached Marjori seriously. I raised my eyebrows when I saw the witch acting.
"Honey, she slapped my face!" she sighed as she started acting to cry.
Gov. looked at me. But he was not angry.
"Don't tell me you will believe that woman Gov?" I asked as he confronted me.
"I saw."
I can not believe that Gov. For the first time I saw him defend his woman over me.
Is he serious? I just shook my head and turned my back on them. Gov was supporting her in the living room.
Suddenly I lost my appetite and went back to the room. It's Saturday and there is no practice. I will see the witch all day. I was really happy and I was able to avoid seeing Francine and then something worse happened to see here.
How many hours I spent myself on social media. Before I went down. But I found them busy inserting things.
"Put it there. And that, put it in our honey's room and let me in."
Bruha is busy ordering the men who work. What are those for? And how many suitcases?
"What is that?" I asked and approached them. I couldn't stand it so I spoke up.
"Oh honey, you didn't tell her? I'll stay here." she said smiling as he gently clung to Gov.
"What?" I seemed deaf to what she said. Will she live here? Is that serious?
"All right, you can fix my things." she ordered the men.
I approached Gov and pulled him into the garden. The witch did not follow so we were able to talk.
"Gov is that true? Are you serious?" I asked him.
"Yes. Any problem with that, baby girl?" he asked me.
"How about tita Bettina--"
"Your Mommy and I haven't been together for a long time. So please, accept her. Just like I accepted you as my daughter,," he says.
I did nothing. Gov will be followed here because this is his house. But what about Aunt Bettina? I don't want that witch to be a mother! I will not allow her to replaced by Tita Bettina. Like I don't want to be able to have a step-mom witch!
"There is nothing that you can do, My dear. Just accept the fact that I am your, Mom," she said smiling as she approached me.
"Don't let me be afraid of our own house! Stupid! Don't imitate me with those you watch who are being bullied by a hookup daughter of his wife. Im different from them, stupid!" I said while crossing my arms.
"Never open that gate for that witch! Do you understand?!" I ask to the guard and went inside.
"Ma'am Meghan, are you all right?" the maids asked.
"Yes, go ahead and go inside manang," I said.
"Thank you very much Ma'am Meghan."
I went upstairs. My beauty is a bit haggard on that witch! I'm getting dressed. Just a few hours later I heard a bang from the door of my room.
I went there to open it. But as soon as I opened it, Marjori exposed me to being dirty. The dirt on her clothes and the smell of the sun.
"YOU'RE NO SHAME ON YOU WOMAN!" shout of witch and rushed at me. I lay down on the bed as she tweaked me. We pulled out of bed when someone begged us, Governor.
"What is happening here?!" angry question of Gov. Anger was obvious in his eyes.
"H-honey!" Witch cried and acted as she hugged Gov.
"I want to say sorry when she suddenly tweaked me!" she said as she wept without tears.
"Your excuse is rotten. Is there no one else? I already watched that on T.V" I said reluctantly to her and fixed myself.
Gov looked at me. Don't tell me he suspects me?
He was kind to me, I thought he would hurt me but I was surprised by what he said.
"Are you okay, baby girl?" he asked me. I just nodded at him before he dragged Marjori.
"LET'S TALK."
Before they left my room. That woman was still teasing me. What does she think she is doing here? Is she stupid? In my own room, she made scandal.
I just lay down on the bed. I will not eat dinner. I also have no appetite. So I just slept on it. Maybe tomorrow everything will change. I just woke up with no more marjori in my life. Im so happy, everytime that I imagined it. For sure Gov is angry and maybe tomorrow she will be expelled from here as well. I really thought earlier, Gov was on the side of that woman.
Well goodluck to her. I need to rest, I don't want to look ugly on graduation day. How can I blame Gian if he sees me stressed at graduation.
