BETWEEN 2 WORLDS.

Chapter 41: Did You Just Call Me Aunt?

Mr Anj stared at the two girls who just called him, who is he to reply without hurting the other.

The best thing is to reply them both.

"Yes, my daughters", He replied.

"Uncle..dad please...tigers aren't bad", Our words clashed buy I didn't care until our last statement.

"Tigers aren't bad", Nina smiled.

"You see", I smiled. "The tiger is harmless and gentle as well, she doesn't cause trouble and she's also a small tiger cub".

Not all of my words are true but I need to persuade this hard head father of mine who as a soft heart.

" Its a cub?", he asked and I nodded. "Fine then, but its on probation, any single mistake then I'll take it to the zoo", He smiled though he wasn't happy with his decision then headed for his room.

"Thanks", I smiled brightly pulling her cheeks.

"Awch, that's painful", Nina slapped my hands away gently. "Can I see the tiger?", she asked cutely and I couldn't refuse her, after all she isn't that bad, she help me out earlier.

"Sure", I replied her and we both headed for my room.

"Wait for me", Mona shouted behind us while trying to catch up with us.

"Can I also see the tiger", she asked nicely and politely and that sent shivers down my spine.

It shocked me to the core, so you can sound as polite as this.

"Can you stop staring at me, I'm I too cute or you just want to turn me to your mirror?", she asked and I scoffed.

"Let's move", I said and carried Nina in my arms.

"How old are you?", I asked.

"Four, I'll be clocking five years In the next thee months", Nina replied.

"What about your sister", I asked.

"She's seven years", Nina replied while playing with my hair.

"What are you two talking about, aunt Lucina", Mona asked.

"Excuse me, did you just call me aunt?", I asked surprised at her unexpected choice of words.

"Is it a crime?", she pouted cutely.

"Just call me Lucina, forget about the unnecessary formalities, I'll prefer Lucina", I gave her a tight smile.

"Why should I call Lucina without respect, calling you Lucina when you have just the same stature of my mother, I'm sure your age difference isn't much", Mona said.

Oh, you are just realizing it right now, luckily for you I'm not on bad terms with kids cause I was once like you and I easily forgive too. I do not even know this cute princesses, yeah, they are cute princesses now that they've chosen the best part for them. I don't even know who their parent are.

"Whats your mom and dad's name".

"Mom's names are honey, sugar, darling, gosh her names are much, she and dad's are similar, dad is also honey sugar and darling", Nina frowned. "Their names are boring and also not interesting, all my classmates know their parents name but mine don't even have a specific name", she frowned and all Mona could do was laugh at her sister, I also stifled my laughter so that she won't feel stupid.

"Don't mind her, Dad's name is Mike...

"Oh, Mike, your mom is Sandra", I said.

"How did you know", she asked.

"Your aunt is the smartest", that was all I said.

"Nina, Honey, sugar and darling are just terms of affection", I smile at her.

"Never knew, I thought it was their name".

I opened the door to my room, I expected the entire room to be a mess, as in upside down and Timaya hiding under my bed but to my surprise, everywhere was just like how I left except for the torn blanket and broken plate. I'll need to get a new one.

Timaya was on my bed sleeping, I placed Nina gently on the bed and assisted Mona up too, my bed was as high as...heaven knows.

"Hush, she's sleeping", I told them and they nodded.

" She's beautiful", Nina whispered.

"Its her fur for me", Mona beamed.

"She's cute right?", I asked.

"Yes, she looks like a cat but she looks even more beautiful and cute than normal tigers", Mona commented.

"It looks special", Nina smiled rubbing its fur with her small hand.

"Let's go to your room so we won't disturb little Timaya", I smiled and they nodded excitedly.

"She has a name, it sounds cute just like her", Mona said.

I brought both of them down from the bed and we went to their room. Mona and Nina share the same room since they are still young and as a matter of fact they are sisters and might not like to be separated.

"My niece's room looks nice", I smiled entering their room.

"That didn't sound sincere", Nina said.

"Yeah, I hate red", I replied her. "But apart from that your room looks nice".

"Students who went for the project should resume back immediately after this weekend is over, they should continue with their classes while we judge their project", Mrs Rita Norene said firmly.

Mrs Rita Norene is the head and owner of Golden Crystal University and the mother and only parent of Mona Norene and Richard Norene.

A lady with long blonde hair and blue eyes with a tall slender figure eight shape, a rude, arrogant, strict, rich, straight forward and a no nonsense business woman.

Her husband died in a plane crash when returning home from Asia so all his property including the universities across the country and companies where all willed to her as his legal wife and mother to his biological children Mona and Richard.

"Yes ma'am", Miss Nova, the head of the entire project nodded.

"What else?", she asked coldly.

"Ma'am, Mona bullied another student", Miss Nova reported.

"Speak to her yourself", she replied, her face was blank as ever, not like she really cared. " I'll be visiting the final year students, to be precise, the research students based on their projects on Monday", Mrs Norene said while Miss Nova nodded.

"You may take your leave now", she demonstrated her hand toward the door.

"Good day ma'am", Miss Nova bowed

slightly before she left the room.

Then her secretary came in.
