Sharing Beatrice A Luna To Her Stepbrothers by Alexis Dee

229-Between The Two Brothers

It's been weeks, and my relationship with Zane was going extremely well. Sometimes I even wondered how long it would be until something happened and the disaster ruined everything forme.

I was humming and cleaning the kitchen when Pamela walked in with Maura behind her. Pamela had been acting weird while Maura was sweet enough to comfort me every time Pamela let out a remark about my work, but Maura herself had been lost a little bit.

She had not talked about what had changed the happy girl into such a gloomy lady.

Beatrice! You have taken half a day almost every day now. You will be staying late here with me today," Pamela ordered, making me raise my head from the floor and look at her with sadness.

I wanted to meet Zane today, like every other day. For some reason, Pamela didn't even like when I would take a lunch break.

I didn't take a half day. I'll only leave and come back before my lunch break is over, I argued, leaving the wet cloth on the floor and getting to my feet. She didn't let me use any mops or dusters. According to Pamela, I need to learn the basic mannerisms of working hard. So she wanted me to do everything with my bare hands. And since I was in a very happy place in my life, I didn't pick an argument with her. But now she was coming for my time with Zane, and I would not let her do that to me.

You don't have to leave the café to have lunch. Everybody asks me why the server is not having lunch here when this is literally the best café in the pack right now. So stay here and eat the leftovers.’ Pamela's voice had changed this time. She sounded super angry with me.

"It's okay. She needs to breathe in fresh air after a hard day of work. So what if she leaves and spends some time--," Maura was trying to have my back when Pamela turned to her and waved her hand at her.

"You don't understand anything. Don't side with her, she will make you cry one day," her comment made me frown and then reach her briskly.

"What do you mean by that? You cannot make such strong allegations about my character without proving anything," I argued, but the way she didn't even bother turning around to look at me made me realize she was not worth talking to.
