“How rude! How dare you talk to us in that way? We’re much older than you. Show us some respect!”

Mala crossed her arms and sneered, “What about all the noise you’re making out here? Isn’t that rude too? Why do you deserve my respect just because you’re older than me? My ancestors are way older than you. Are you going to pay your respects to them, then?”

“Who exactly are you? Who are you to speak on her behalf?”

“I’m her older sister! Is that good enough for you? Who are you guys to demand Hope to buy you houses?”

close the apartment door.

He let out a sigh of relief. “You’re good, Ms. Maia.” Buck wiped the sweat off his forehead and gave Maia a thumbs–up. “You handled them so well! You were able to intimidate them just like that.”

Maia said, “You can’t be soft with the likes of them. You can only overpower them if you’re more aggressive than them.” She had learned this lesson the hard

way.

People were not going to be grateful just because you were kind, thoughtful, or generous.
