Chapter 6

"Uhhh?" Craig looked dumfounded. "You know how much I hate doing dishes Rora especially washing pots"

"I see you aren't ready yet, I'm going then" Aurora said and began walking away.

"No no... I will do the dishes, I will make sure the pots are sparkling Don't do this to me Rora" Craig ran after her.

Aurora gave a lposided smile and winked. "Good, that's why you're my boy" she replied and Craig frowned but quickly shrugged it off.

As long as she does what she promised then he could be her boy for now and do anything she wants him to do.

He can't afford to lose that cute dude.

"I still can't believe I got a job and I'll be resuming tomorrow" Aurora muttered with a small smile.

"I told you, You just have to keep pushing till you get what you want" Craig said and Aurora chuckled.

"You just have to push till you get what you want yen yen yen!!!! Motivational speaker, have you gotten what you want ever since you started pushing? You are still in this slum" Aurora taunted jokingly.

Craig raised his hands to hit her and she ran out, but Craig being Craig, he must not allow her go free without hitting her head so he pursued her.

They kept running pursuing each other till they got to Aurora's house. "Damn Craig, you are so wicked, can't you just forget what I said for a minute" she said breathing heavily.

"Why would I when your big head needs hitting to make it small" he said hitting her head in satisfaction while also breathing heavily.

"Aaahhh!!! Aurora rubbed her head. I'm so tired and exhausted, we really did ran that much distance? Wow I'm such a fast runner and you couldn't even catch me despite being the male, shame on you" she taunted bringing out her tongue.

"I just wanted to let you go today so dont even let it get into your head because the next time to try to belittle me, hehehehe you won't know what I would do to you" Craig mumbled and Aurora rolled her eyes.

"It will only be happening in your dream, you really underestimated my powers Craig, don't worry someday you would have a taste of my medicine" she said and Craig burst out laughing.

"Your mouth are filled with the impossible Rora, get off my way let me go greet Aunt before I change my mind and flex my muscles on you" Craig joked feigning seriousness making Aurora run out of the doorstep into the house.

"Mama!!!" She screamed calling out her mother who came rushing from the backyard to see what was the problem was.

Aurora jumped on her when she came in smiling widely, making her mother surprised. Rebecca glanced at Craig who was also smiling widely.

"Guess what Mama?" Aurora asked hugging her mother's waist in a tight hug.

Her mother smiled looking at her daughter, it has been a long time since she saw a genuine smile and happiness on her daughter's face, whatever that had happened must be a very good news.

"Don't stress yourself playing Rora's guessing games Aunt, she got a job at a new wine bar down the other next street" Craig chipped coming out with a cup of water to drink.

"Aaarrrgh!!! You dirty head, how could you ruin my surprise" Aurora screamed at him running towards the unconcerned looking Craig who was busy drinking his water.

He suddenly heard a yell and looked down from his cup of water only to see an enraged girl coming at him.

"Shit" he mumbled and drop the cup, turn around and fled for his dear life like a bolt of lightening.

"I will get you soon" Aurora screamed from the door when she couldn't get hold of him.

"Calm down Rora, you were still going to tell me anyways so isn't it the same with him saying it" Said Sarah; Aurora's mother.

"No, it will never be the same with the way I wanted to put it. That big head has spoilt my surprise plan and I don't mind him being the architect of me getting the job, I'll still beat him for spoiling my plans" Aurora fumed.

"I'm really surprised baby so you don't have to get mad at your best friend, finally you got a job and I am super excited for you, come here" her mother cooed and she dolefully walked into her embrace still sucking.

Can't believe you will start working tomorrow after all these years of staying idle and looking for a job, you finally found one, now we could boost of a two squared meal" her mother said sniffing back her tears.

"Yeah, and I can be able to be pay Maya's fees and save for your business, I also planned on us moving out of this slum" Aurora said and her mother's eyes widened.

"What do you mean Rora? How much will you get paid that you planned on doing all these you mentioned? Do you think you are going for an office job?" Sarah asked trying hard to hold back her laugh but she just couldn't do she ended up laughing so hard.

Her daughter won't seize to amaze her, she can't believe Aurora planned on paying her sister's fees, opening a business for her and taking them out of the slum all on a meagre salary paid to a server. 

"Don't laugh mother, you will see it with your eyes, I have so many plans which would be executed once I started working" she said putting on a convincing face which further made her mother laugh more.

Aurora sighed watching her mother laugh at her, if only she knows what she does to bring back food everyday, she wouldn't laugh rather she would rejoice on the opportunity facing her.

She knew she would make a lot of money out of people from that wine bar and her mother wouldn't just understand it.

She just ignored her and climbed up the almost broken stairs into her small room to prepare for her work.
