Chapter 36 - Teen Mom?

Anna was shocked! She thought she had covered everything well. How did it happened that her uncle knows about it? Does that mean everyone else also knew?

As if reading her mind, Addie said "Don't worry no one knows about this. I happened to be there at that time and saw you there. But I never came to greet you because you were with someone and it might have become awkward for you."

Anna sighed in relief.

"But who was he? And a child. Is that child yours?" Addie teased Anna.

"Nooo!!!... It was my friend and the younger child was his brother." Anna was so embarrased asnwering him.

"Hahaha... I thought you have become teen mom and you are hidding from all of us" Addie can't help but tease her more. Her niece rarely laughed.

Anna was blushing at this statement. She just imagined how it would be if Alex and she had a child.

'Anna, how can you imagine this?'

"U-Uncle A-Addie, Can you please not tell mom that I went to beach with a boy. You know very well what happened in the past. I don't want her to be upset again."

"Hmm, I won't tell. It is your life. You can live it."

They returned inside the home, and saw the dinner was ready at the table.

Four of them sat and started having the dinner. Along dinner there were many gossips too.

Anna loved gossiping. It was if she wanted to have knowledge of everything, what is happening where. This was the same habit of hers which she got from her mother. They both were like this.

After the dinner, Mother Marrie asked them to stay for a night but they politely refused. They had to go on work next day.

After they left, Anna helped her mother a little in cleaning the table.

"Mom, what do you think about Zara? Is she good?" Asked Anna.

"I found her good. She is an independent girl, knowing the family values. The main point is that, Addie is happy. I just want them to be happy and give nephew or niece soon. It has been so many years that I've played with a child."

"But mom I'm also a child!! I'm not eighteen till yet." Said Anna while pouting.

Mother Marrie patted her back and said, "You are not child, you are a teen now."

"You are biased. I'm angry."

"You can be angry, I don't mind just do the cleaning." said mother casually. She knew her daughter sometimes transform into childish mode, which is only available to her.

After cleaning, Anna returned to her room.

She opened up her laptop and log in into a game.

The game which she had stopped playing since 3 years.

Those memories still hurt her, but she had managed to live with them

Her own father was ready to sell her. What can be worst than this? Well there was worse, Her lover was killed.

Without her knowlegde, tears starting flowing out of her eyes.

But suddenly Alex's face came in her mind. He was attracting. But one thing was clear and that was, she can never have a relation. She can't danger him.

She went to bed and fell asleep very late, due to the memories that were running in her mind.

...

Next day

When she got up, she saw that her mother was worried about something.

"What happened mother?"

"Oh Anna, Nothing. Your father called me and said that I need to sign on those properties paper. Those are mine. Otherwise he will transfer them to mine and his joint name which will be in future, on your name."

"Why can't he let us live in peace?" Asked Anna in irritate voice.

She was always frustrated, why can't her father go and live his own life as he had already destroyed theirs.

"I don't know." said Mother Marrie.

She wanted to go away from him but how?

"Will you sign on those doc.u.ments?"

"Do I have another choice?" Mother Marrie took those papers and signed them.

"Go get ready, you have school today. Tomorrow is weekend, We will go on shopping."

"Mum, I have to work tomorrow you know."

"Come early from work then." Saying this, Mother Marrie went into kitchen.

But Anna was deep in thoughts. What was going into her mind was only known to herself.She cane back to reality when she heard her mother yelling her name and asking her to get ready.

She went to her room and got ready, but still her mind wasn't fixed on the things she was doing.
