It's time to talk.
"I..I came home yesterday to find her unconscious in the room.. So I... took her the hospital" I shuttered at first but corrected myself at the thought that everything I'm saying is being recorded and my tone of confidence would be noted.
I looked up at her after I discovered she wasn't responding. She was just staring and smirking at me. My nervousness grew bigger and I adjusted on the chair. She then took a huge breath and stood up.
"Okay then, how many of you live in the house?" She asked, wearing a slight frown to note the relevance of the question.
"My mum, Patricia the cook and I" I replied.
"Really? When we got to your house yesterday, we could not trace the whereabouts of Patricia, do you have any idea of where she is?" She questioned intelligently.
"No"

I was never fashion crazy when nothing happened to me, let alone in a mourning mood. I just packed my hair in a bun and NY face was nothing to write about, it was make-up blank. Just few minutes ago, we saw some malnourished children ;big stomach and head with tiny legs, dusty and looking uncared for on the way. Their eyes lingered through scorching sun at our car in awe.They stopped immediately when they sighted the car from afar and their their playing cans with tensed faces and waited for us to pass by.Children at the age of 2-4 among them had clothes that barely reached their knees.
