Applying Pressure

Louisa's POV

I was sitting in my home office trying to get some work done when my mother walks in with Ruby. I have been sitting here staring at this document for the past one hour, and I still can't make any sense out of what was written on it.

"Aminu what are you still doing here? I thought you were supposed to have gone on a vacation with Louisa on Friday?" My mother asked me, before I could answer her Ruby ran towards me and I scooped her into my arms, "hey munchkin." I kissed her cheeks.

"I'm fine daddy," she replies with a wide smile, "grandma bought me chocolates," she said showing me the packet of chocolate she was holding in her hands.

"That is good, hope you thanked her?" I asked.

"Yes," she said bobbing her head.

"Ruby Baby, why don't you go and eat your chocolate in your room while I talk to your father?" My mom said to Ruby.
