Chapter 9 - Ch 9

"Heyy! Are you okay?" She asked, waving the hands near my eyes.

I got up to my consciousness, "Yeah, yeah! I am Ariadne Oak, daughter of Thomas Oak."

"Ohh… I got it! You're welcome!" She welcomed me in a polite and positive fashion.

I entered. "Hey Nancy, your sister Ari came! Welcome her." She called her.

"Hey Nancy!" I called.

She came running to me, "Where were you, Ms. Oak?" a negative attitude she showed to me.

"Well, you know I was in the office."

"Are you going to stay with me or live separately like dad and mom have done?"

I became speechless, "Well, you must know one thing." Then I took her away to one of the room in the house, and entered leaving that nanny outside and locked up.

I put my hands on her shoulders and explained, "You know that lady, you saw one night?"

"Yess… what happened to her?"

"Well, nothing has happened to her, but something will happen to you. You know that nowadays kidnappers and robbers are roaming here and there?"

"Yes! I have seen it in the Sailor Water show (a superhero show for kids)!"

"Yes, things like that are happening. She had tried to kidnap you to get mom there. She is a villainess who is trying to kidnap mom by sacrificing you there, as you have seen in the television. She was peeking at us for a very long time. She may also try to sacrifice me and dad. Right?!"

"Ye- yes!"

"So, to avoid those things, we are living separately from each other for safety's sake. And this mom has told."

"Oh, is that so?"

"Yes! But don't tell anything about this to anyone nor to that nanny. Got it?"

"Yes! But I think Amber is a good person… than you! I think."

"But still! This is what mom told me."

"Yeah! Fine, I will not tell anything to her, either."

"Good!"

Then I opened the door of the room. And came out, when I found the nanny cooking the food.

"Hey, what are you cooking for Nancy?" I asked Amber.

"Steak chateaubriand, Ms. Oak. Stay here, I am cooking food for you too. Got it?"

"Hey, I am going. I am just here to see my sister."

"And came to see me too. Fear of something? Right?!"

"Yes, Ms. Dubois. Of course, why not?! Why not come to see you?" I beamed.

"Hahahaha… Absolutely, correct." She smiled with a cunning look.

Fear! … I got for my sister!

"Well, I will stay here and then leave for home."

"Good choice, Ms. Ariadne!"

"As always, Ms. Amber!

The lightning striking out to each other's eyes, as the competitors. She was smirking at me while I was looking at her with a confused expression.

She then returned to her cooking and then I went to Nancy, sitting on the sofa and watching TV. I sat beside her. And I interrupted, "Hey, do you remember what happened that night, when you were kidnapped?"

"Ughhrrr…! Well, what do you mean, sis Ari?"

"I mean how did she kidnap you?"

"Ummm… She has climbed the pipe sticked to outside the apartment passing through the side of my room's window, she called me when I woke up, middle of my sleep — 'hey, I am your mother's friend, told me to take you to the playground as she wants to meet you.' That time, I was so happy that I became a blind person and went to the hands of that kidnapper. Then she took me there. And then father arrived. Now I don't believe in anyone who tells about mom, except you and dad."

"Ooo… good girl!"

"Dinner is ready!" Amber called out.

We then went back to have dinner.

Soon, I left the house after dining. While going to my new home in a cab, I called my dad where he had asked, "Hey, have you recorded the meeting?"

"Yes, I will send you later. But what about that meeting held between The boss and heads of the organisation?"

"Uhm! In the middle of the meeting, I was called, where they asked me about you and Nancy. That time, the piercing green eyes of them were glaring at me in the dark."
