#Chapter26

Mia's POV

The next morning I woke up to go to school. As I came downstairs, I saw that the scary man was having his coffee and talking to Mary. When Mary saw me both of them went quiet.

/"Good morning dear. What would you like to have?/" she asked me. /"Good morning Mary. I would just have an apple./" I said as I grabbed an apple.

/"You sure dear?/" she asked eyeing me. /"Positive./" I said back. As I was about to go, /"Wait./" the scary man said abruptly.

My feet stopped on their own. Both my mind and body can never go against him. Urgh. /"I'll drop you off at school./" he said as he stood up.

/"W-What? Why?/" I asked too quickly. /"Its on my way./" he said eyeing me suspiciously. /"No its ok. I don't want to t-trouble you./" Why do I always stutter when I talk to him?

/"Its no trouble./" he said with a stoic face. /"W-What about after school? I-Its ok. I brought my c-car here anyway./" I said as I showed him my car keys.
