Chapter 10

Y A S M I N

I was pacing around my room thinking of a way to tell Aunt about the issue. Should I just tell her the truth?

After contemplating for a while an idea popped up in my head.

Okay let's do this

I spot Aunt sitting on the two sitter couch knitting. I inhale a sharp breath to calm my beating heart.

"Um... Aunt, I want to speak to you." I started my eyes darting from her knitting to the floor.

"What is it?" She asked.

"Um... There is this my friend at work, she has a son and she asked if I can take care of him as she's traveling out of the country due to some problem and she has no one to take care of him, so she asked me and I agreed, it is okay with you?"

What a flat lie!

"How long is she staying there?" She inquired.

"2-3days." I watched her hoping she won't raise another question. I hope my lie will work.

After a little while, she releases a deep breath stopping her knitting for a bit.

"Okay, No problem." I didn't know when my face broke in a smile.
