Chapter # 36

Ester, you are my greatest strength.

I walked out as well and stood beside her. We both smiled, Mother and Father smiled when they saw us. "Let's have lunch." Mother grinned. We all sat down to have lunch. It was silent but then Ester spoke up,"Desmond." I flashed her a smile and asked in a charming tone, "Yes?"

"Can you get me an ice cream after lunch?" She asked sweetly. "I need to talk to my father." I reasoned. "You can do it after getting the ice-cream. Right, Father?" She asked, turning to Father.

"Yeah of course," Father said.

"Fine," I said.

"Also, drop me off as well." She demanded. "What are you trying to do?" I whispered to her angrily. "What? I am asking." She smiled mockingly. I looked at her, not knowing what to say. She is just teasing me.

"You surely have hit your head," I said to her and shook my head. "Whatever you say." She shrugged. "Fine." I exhaled.
