It's Either You Or No One

When jasmine checked back at the wall clock, it's already past eight. She's been trying to reach her granddaughters since an hour plus, but yet none of them picked up the calls. Infact, they turned off their phones, which made jasmine became more worried. Her hair by now is now a total mess like she was struck by an electric. Hmm, yeah. Maybe electrocuted. Frustration has a lot to do with that. I guess. She grabbed the second iPhone 14 which her son, Justin, had bought for her few weeks ago before leaving for L.A, from the glass center table. At once within a blink of an eye, she began dialing her son's number.

The good and kindhearted people

Los Angeles, CA.

Sebastian and Jin-joo's place.

Inside the kitchen

"Pass me the carrots." Mrs Maggie instructed her eighteen years old granddaughter Orianna whom has been muted since child birth.

Orianna nodded and rinsed the carrots in the sink before passing it to her grandmother.

"Good girl," Mrs Maggie chuckled as she chopped the vegetables.

It has never been difficult for the people around Orianna to understand her sign language whenever she tries to lay out a point. But it has been hard for the people that has never met her before.

She is so beautiful with her big JetBlue eyes, medium length blonde hair and elegant body curves. With all these alluring features and figures of hers, she could easily attract any man that comes her way like her magnetic.

Though she has never gotten a chance to meet any yet. As a matter of fact, they call her 'Useless' because of her muted vocaloid.

Orianna just graduated from highschool few weeks ago. Currently she has big plans of furthering her education into college but there's not enough money to do that. Her parents had died in a fatal motor accident when she was nine.

Her grandmother Mrs Maggie has been the only one taking care of her since the day her parents passed away.

All through her highschool days till she graduated, has been in the boarding house. Now that she was done with highschool, she decide to look for her grandma in the big city of LA and come stay with her. She arrived just a day ago.

To keep her a little bit busy before gathering more money to send her to college, Mrs Maggie had planned to enroll Orianna in a ballet school.

Ballet has always been Orianna's dream since she was six. She had also attended several ballet schools in the past and now that she's all grownup, Mrs Maggie wants her to further with something she love since she was a kid.

When Orianna poked Mrs Maggie's arm, she stopped chopping and smiled at her, "Yes my dear."

'Have you been working in this mansion for long?' She mouthed with sign language.

Mrs Maggie whom has always understood her granddaughter, tittered and nodded, "Yes my dear, I've been working here for over twenty-five years now."

Orianna widened her eyes in shock and threw her hands into her mouth, 'You gat to be kidding me, grandma.'

"No I'm not." Mrs Maggie chuckled. Caressing her granddaughter's hair, she smiled, "Do you know why I chose never to quit yet?"

Orianna vigorously shook her head. 'No'

"Well, because the people here are nice. My boss and madame are good and kindhearted people. They've been the reason why I usually sent big tips to you in school."

'Ahh, is that true, grandma?' Orianna gasped.

"Of course it is true, my dear." She continued chopping the veggies.

Orianna sat on the cabinet and asked, 'Grandma, who are these boss and madame you're talking about? Have I met them yet?'

"Hmm, you have met my madame but you haven't seen my boss yet." Pausing for a while, Mrs Maggie looked at her, "My boss is out of the country and will be back by weekend. You'll meet him when he returns."

Orianna nodded her head, 'Sure, I'll be delighted to see him for the first time and also thank him for his kind acts.'

"Yes, and my madame too, you saw her the other day at the garden with her friends, right?"

'Was she the woman on pink short and white hoody?' When Mrs Maggie nodded her head, Orianna gasped, 'Ah, grandma, she looks so petite and beautiful. I love her gorgeous body stature. I admired her from afar. I wanted to meet her and introduce myself but I was scared she might lash out on me. Besides, is she newly married to your boss?'
