Her Aunt was dressing the twins, Uncle Gener was already dressed and repairing something in his tricycle, and Angel was packing a large bag with Tupperware. They all appear to be heading to a family picnic, which piqued Aminah's curiosity."What's the deal with this?" Aminah peeked inside the bag at the stacked Tupperware Angel was preparing."Tupperware," Angel said cynically before continuing her work."I know, but what is it for? Are you planning another family trip? ”"What do you mean a family trip? My father works at Cecilia's Paradise, so we're heading there. They were celebrating the 17th anniversary of the resort.""Cecilia's paradise?" Why is this necessary then? " Aminah asked again, puzzled by the number of containers on the bag."It's a dish container since several dishes will be put inside later.

We don't want to trouble you any longer; you already have a full plate.""You didn't even take their compensation for their health check."Ms. Anabelle continued to try to hand over the money in an envelope, but Aunt Gena refused to take it.

“Ahhh stop it, let go of me” “I’m not going to let go of your hair, you liar” “What did I ever do to you?” “Stop acting innocent, I’m gonna rip your heads off” Aminah and Angel were trying to stop their Aunt Gena as soon as she heard the news that has been circulating for three days now in their school and even in their neighborhood. This rush of Aunt Gena would not have happened if she had not been filled with negative gossip that she has been hearing which is ruining the reputation of her niece Aminah. “Aunt” “Mom that’s enough please” “Don’t stop me now, move!” Aunt Gena is still furious and infuriating to pull Mrs. Sara's hair, who is now on the floor with her hair and clothes a mess. Aminah was so shocked to witness how her aunt becomes a different person as she shows how infuriated she is. People from Area Quatro were just hanging around like they were watching an interesting movie about the fight between the two. No one tries to intervene with them apart from Aminah a

AMINAH “Hey, are you the transferee,” A girl with a high-pitched voice asked the new transferee, Aminah. “Yes.” She answers with a small voice. She slightly moves backward because she felt uncomfortable when the group of unfashionable girls emitting a queen bee bully’s vibe surrounds her. And she’s not wrong because they laugh at her and mimic the way she speaks. They just stop when the adviser enters the room and introduces her as a transferee from a private school. She felt their deadly and mocking look, they murmured as if she can’t hear them. “I think her parents go bankrupt, that’s why she’s now in public” “She looks classy but trashy” It’s funny how her first day instantly became her worst day, she plans on avoiding this kind of interaction, she wanted to build a new and fresh image that’s why she agreed to transfer.
