      { FACT AND COMPLAINT }

               

<OXFORD ELEMENTARY SCHOOL>

Jay has been waiting for the past ten minutes in front of the school without any sign of Annabella, it's just three minutes to their closing time. He got down from the car and lean on it,just when the closing time clocked, Annabella showed up and Jay exhaled.

"Jay!I'm sorry,I kept you waiting right?' Annabella said in rush

"You kept me waiting but you're just here in time" Jay said and Annabella sighed

They both went in together,walking toward the kids class. 

Minutes later,they approached the class and then entered.

"Mom!!!!" Casey and Alex screamed out at once and all the kids eyes fell On Annabella who was looking totally shocked and confused

Madison looked at Annabella in surprise

'What the h*ll?' She thought inwardly

Annbella was still standing still but got even more shocked when they came to hug her.

"How are you babies?" She decided to play along,she kissed their cheeks

🗣 Wow,their mom is so young and beautiful

🗣 Her hair is really long

"Ma'am!! You're so beautiful!!" A girl said amd Annabella smiled

'Thank you so much,you're also cute" She said

"Are you really their mom??" Another one asked

"Of course" Annabella said and the twins smiled

"Casey and Alex said you're the best chef in the world"

Annabella looked at Casey and then Alex

"We want to taste your food!!!" 

"Yessss!!!!!" 

The kids started chanting

"Mom,they can come over to our house right?" Alex grinned and Annabella bashed her lashes

What if Gregor gets mad??

"Let them come mom please" Casey pouted

"Oh,of course. How about this weekend?" Annabella asked 

"Yes!!!!!!" The kids screamed happily. 

'Bye cuties" Annabella waved at them

Casey and Alex walked in front while she followed

"Ma'am" Madison walked over and Annabella stopped while the twins followed Jay

"Hello" Annabella smiled at Madison,trying hard not to be nervous

"I'm sorry,I didn't know you're Mr Gregor's wife all these while" Madison said

"Oh...it's nothing" Annabella smiled

"Nice meeting you ma'am" Madison said

"Same here" Annabella nodded and then walked away

"Seriously? When did Gregor got married? Is she kidding??" Madison scoffed, staring at Annabella till she was out of sight. 

••

Annabella finally joined the twins in the car and none of them looked up or said a word which made Annabella even more curious but she decided to leave them till they got home. 

Soon,they got back to the island and they both got down before Annabella could even blink

"What's with them?" She muttered,watching them rushing into the house

"They are feeling guilty" Jay chuckled

"I will see you later Jay' Annabella said

"Are you cooking tonight? Can't take that fried rice outta my head" Jay said and Annabella smiled

"Trust me to bring yours if I make dinner" Annabella said and went in.

She climbed the stairs and walked straight to the twins room, they are both sitting on their bed,staring at their fingers

"Cuties" she called but they still didn't look up

"Cuties what was that for?? What did you tell your friends?" She asked but still,silence

"Talk to me please,how would I know what's going on if you don't explain?" She asked and finally they looked up 

"We are sorry nanny" Alex muttered and Annabella raised her brows

"We told them you're our mom' Casey said

"What? But...why?" Annabella asked

"Because....we don't want them laughing at us if we tell them we changed our nanny again, they said my hair looks pretty and our dressing is more beautiful.....so we told them you're our mom" Casey explained

"But you know that lying is not good right?" Annabella sat down between them

"We know,but we had no choice" Alex said 

"Daddy is going to get mad if he finds out" Annabella said

"He might play along if you talk to him" Casey said

"Who?" Annabella asked

"You" Alex replied and Annabella's eyes widened

"No...you know he only listen to you....."

"He will be angry with us if we tell him, help us nanny please" They grabbed her hand and she swallowed

"It's...fine...I will look for a way" Annabella said

"Thank you nanny!!" They both screamed and hugged her tightly while Annabella became lost in thought.

<STARS COLLEGE≈GARDEN>

Wright was lying on the bench,staring straight into the blue sky while listening to the loud music with his headphones. He suddenly saw Alyssa walking over to him and he pulled his headphones down around his neck

'Isn't she one of Cat eyes friends?' He thought and waited until Alyssa got close to him

"Hey Wright" Alyssa called nervously and he sat up

"What is it?" He asked

"I think you dropped this" Alyssa said,handing over an handkerchief to him

His eyes widened and he immediately grabbed it from her hand, it's the last thing he always use to remember his late mom

"Where did you find this?" He asked

"Just....the garden entrance. I've seen it with you countless times" Alyssa replied

"Thank you" Wright muttered and she smiled shyly

Wright could see her pink cheeks

'I thought she hates me like Cat said' he thought

Wright checked the time

"Oh...last class is over" he muttered and stood up

"Right,you missed it. Do you want any note....."

'No" Wright cut her off and started walking away, Alyssa followed him and they started walking side by side.

They came out of the garden and there was Melanie and Daisy waiting

"You made me worried, where were you!" Daisy grabbed Alyssa's hand

Melanie said nothing,she was staring at Wright and he was staring back at her. 

"Hey Cat" he called and smiled at her

Melanie turned and walked away without responding

"Bye Wright" Alyssa waved at him and he nodded

Daisy and Alyssa walked away. 

"What's wrong with her?" Wright mumbled and began walking too until Adam rushed to him and jumped on his back

"How could you miss lecture just like that!! I was missing you so much in class!!" Adam said loudly

"Do you want to die? Get lost" Wright said and Adam laughed before getting down from his back

"I'm hungry,let's go to a restaurant" Adam said

"I was not hungry two minutes ago, but you suddenly jumped on my back And now I'm hungry" Wright said and Adam laughed

"You know I love you" He said and kissed his cheek

"Hey!!!!!!" Wright yelled and wiped his cheek

"Are you crazy?!!" He shouted and Adam laughed

"Come on,it's just a peck" He said

"I told you I hate it....." Adam cut him off with another kiss on the cheek and ran away

"I hate you!!!" Wright screamed 

He suddenly saw Melanie and Lonnie walking hand in hand and he stared at them till they both entered Lonnie's car and then left. 

"They look good like you said" Adam said behind him and Wright rolled his eyes

"What,you said it yourself that they look good" Adam said

"Shut up and let's go if you're Still hungry" Wright said and walked away

Adam immediately followed him.

<EVENING≈A BAR HOUSE>

"Is something wrong?" Brandon asked Gregor as he dropped his beer glass

"Why?" Gregor questioned,he only have a bottle of water in front of him

"You've been quiet since we got here and besides....just water?? Seriously?" Brandon said,pointing at the bottle

"I'm not In the mood to drink" Gregor said

"Are you thinking about your ex wife again?" Brandon grinned and Gregor scoffed

"I told you Greg,you're going to die as a loner soon" Brandon said

"What do you expect me to do?? Start f**king around like you??" Gregor asked

"I didn't even say that bro,at least you should have a girl....."

"I already told you I'm not interested,if I will be having a girl not a b*tch. I have kids dude, I can't do anything that will hurt their feelings" Gregor said

"So how will you differentiate between a bitch and a good one? You don't even look at a girl twice" Brandon said and Gregor sighed

"What's the essence?All of them are just the same anyway,they will always throw themselves at me even without me saying a word" Gregor muttered

"Then just f**k them at least, don't you get horny sometimes?" Brandon asked and Gregor glared at him

"Sorry" Brandon chuckled

"I don't even know why I'm here with you" Gregor stood up

"Come on dude,I missed you" Brandon said

"Get a girl instead,I'm going home" Gregor scoffed

Brandon chuckled, watching as Gregor walked out of the bar house. He called the bartender and almost paid for his beer when suddenly he saw the familiar figure. It was Cindy who walked in with Aurora beside her

"Oh....it's the crazy girl" Brandon said and let out a smile

"Those two girls" Brandon gestured to Aurora and Cindy

"Okay?" The bartender listened carefully

"Serve them,it's on me" Brandon said 

"Okay sir" The bartender smiled and went to do his job. 

Brandon continue staring at Cindy, he couldn't wait to see her reaction.

Cindy and Aurora were just about ordering for one of the cheapest wine when the bartender dropped two bottles of Hennessey Ellipse in front of them. 

Aurora gasped in shock the moment she saw it,Hennessey Ellipse is the most expensive Hennessey and she was so sure of it

"What's this?" Cindy asked

"We didn't order for this" Aurora also said

"I was told to bring them here" The bartender replied

"Who?" Cindy asked

"The young billionaire over there" The bartender pointed at Brandon and they both turned brandon winked at them and raised his glass up

"What the f"*k" Aurora said with wide eyes

Cindy blinked her eyes twice In shock

"It's that crazy man again" She muttered angrily and immediately got up

"Where are you going?" Aurora asked

"Taking them back to him" Cindy replied

"What?!" Aurora almost screamed

Cindy carried the serving tray and walked to Brandon,Aurora followed her

She got to him and dropped it loudly on the table, shocking Brandon

"Hey, who do you think you are?! Did I complain to you that I don't have money to pay for anything I'm buying....."

Aurora tapped her to caution her but she only continued

'Wait" Brandon interrupted and Cindy stopped

"Actually.....these are not for you" Brandon said and Cindy blinked

"Huh?"

"They are for this beauty beside you,not you" Brandon smiled and pointed at Aurora

"Me??" Aurora immediately moved forward,almost pushing Cindy 

"Yeah,you're so pretty" Brandon said

"Thank you sir" Aurora smiled

Cindy frowned

"Do you mind joining me?" Brandon asked

"We came together and she's not staying here with......"

"Of course I don't mind" Aurora cut Cindy off and immediately sat down next to Brandon

"Aurora!" Cindy shouted

"You can join us if you want" Aurora said

Brandon smirked at Cindy and she glared at him dangerously

"Cindy" Aurora called

Cindy exhaled loudly and finally sat down,far away from Brandon

'What the h*ll is she?' Brandon thought,stealing a glance from her.

<GREGOR'S ISLAND>

Annabella just finished setting the dinning table, the twins insisted she cook dinner again and she made it.

After setting,she sat down

"Thank you nanny" They both chorused and she smiled

"Eat up" Annabella said as she also started eating

Almost immediately,Gregor came in 

"Welcome sir!" The maids all bowed at once

"Daddy!!" Casey and Alex immediately jumped down from their seats

"Don't run like that while eating!" Annabella called after them without thinking and they stopped running

Gregor looked up and their eyes met but he got distracted again when the twins finally hugged him

"Welcome sir" Annabella greeted when Gregor was done with the twins and he replied with a nod

"Daddy join us,you're so early today" Casey said,dragging Gregor to the table and Annabella immediately stood up

"No,just eat...."

"No daddy,Our nanny cooked the food. It's so delicious,please join us" Alex said

"Babies,her work here is to take care of you...she's not a cook" Gregor said and Annabella bite her lip

"But...she's not complaining. And besides,you can just increase her salary because we enjoy her food more than the maids own" Casey said 

"Really?" Gregor asord

"Yes daddy" They both said

Gregor sighed and sat down

"Nanny" Casey brought Annabella back to reality and she quickly started to serve Gregor

"Daddy,how is it?" Casey asked when Gregor started eating

"Good" Gregor replied

"Nanny,why are you not sitting down?" Alex asked and Annabella looked at Gregor but he didnt bother to look up so she sat down and they all began eating together

••••

<MINUTES LATER>

"I'm so full" Casey touched her tummy

"Me too" Alex said

"Thank you nanny" They both chorused and Gregor looked at them in surprise and then turned to Annabella who was busy smiling at the twins.

"Nanny,we are going to our room" they said and got up

"I'm coming....."

"No,you should just stay with daddy. We will watch cartoon while waiting for you, take your time" Alex said and Casey winked at Annabella before they both walked away.

Annabella became so nervous

Gregor dropped his cutlery and she looked at him

He just finished eating and to her surprise,he finished it this time around before getting up

"We need to talk" He muttered and Annabelle swallowed

"Now?" She asked

"Take care of the kids first and meet me in my room" Gregor said in his usual cold voice before walking away

Annabella breathe out loudly and touched her chest

'Is he going to fire me??' She thought and immediately cleaned up the table before she rushed upstairs. 

••••

<10PM>

Annabella walked out of her room nervously,after taking care of the kids and they fell asleep,she also had her bath and now on her way to Gregor's room. 

She was so nervous and scared as she stopped in front of Gregor's room, she swallowed hard and then knocked the door. 

The door opened seconds later and she entered the room,Gregor was just coming out of the lounge and his  eyes fell directly on Annabella

"Sir"Annabella bowed shortly 

Gregor sat down and gestured for her to sit down too

Annabella sat down,still feeling nervous for the silence that covered the whole room

"Did you tell anyone we are In a relationship?" Gregor broke the silence after a while and Annabella gasped out loudly

"Sir....that was because Casey and Alex......"

"I know" Gregor cut in and Annabella breathe out,he stood up

"If you are playing along with the kids,then....don't you think going out with another man looks suspicious?" Gregor asked and Annabella looked up

"I'm talking about Thadeus" He broke the shell and Annabella gave him a shocking look.
