Married to the Secret Australian Mafia

Dorothy demeanor changed and she stared at the floor.

“I am so sorry for asking that, I know that you don’t like talking about it. I truly understand if you don’t want to talk about it” Mia apologized.

“I know it is not easy for yo…”

“I was just four years old when it happened but I could remember and understand everything that happened that day” Dorothy interrupted.

“It must have been hard for you” Mia said.

“It was very hard, when my parents were taken to the hospital, I was crying that I wanted to see them” she replied.

“Wait you didn’t sustain any injury of any sort?” Mia asked.

“Nope not even a scratch” Dorothy replied.

“Wow that is truly a miracle” Mia said.

“Yes it is, the nurses there told me that my parents were sleeping but I somehow knew that they were gone” Dorothy said.

“It is fine Doro, I know that wherever they are now, they will be very proud of you” Mia said.

“How old were you when your mother died?” Dorothy asked Mia.

“I was fourteen then, she was very heartbroken and unhappy about my father’s cheating, wherever it happens she will be smiling but I knew they were genuine” Mia replied.

“The night that she died, I was the only one home, my father wasn’t around. She was ironing clothes when she suddenly slumped, I went to her but I couldn’t carry her up. I called our neighbours for help but no one came to our aid, I had to go to the company my father works in to tell him what happened. One of colleague there told me that he had left two hours ago which means he should have been home by then, so I went back home” Mia said.

“And he wasn’t there right?” Dorothy asked.

“Yes he wasn’t and my mother was becoming more weak, I went to our neighbours house again to call them and this time one person came out and asked me what is it. I told him about my mother and he rushed into the house with me.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

When he saw the state of my mom, he called an ambulance immediately and they came and carried my mom to the hospital and I went looking for my father and I fou..”

“You didn’t go with them to the hospital?” Dorothy asked.

“No I didn’t go with them, I was looking for my father” Mia replied.

“But did you later find him?” Dorothy asked.

“Yes in the arms of another woman eating and drinking at a restaurant close to our house” she replied.

“Oh my gosh” Dorothy exclaimed.

“Yeah but what I hated wasn’t that he was with another woman not that liked it but I didn’t hate it as much as when I went to where he was and told him what happened and he ordered the security to throw me out” Mia finished.

“What ! He did that?” Dorothy asked.

“Yes” Mia replied.

“What a heartless and wicked man, I bet since he doesn’t care about his wife that much, it didn’t take him up to a year to marry another wife?” Dorothy asked.

“He got married one week after my mother’s death to the woman I saw him with on that day who is now my stepmother” Mia replied.

“Wow now I know why you don’t get along with them” Dorothy said.

Suddenly Mia’s phone rang and she checked the caller.

“Speak of the devil and he appears” she said.

“Who is that?” Dorothy asked.

Mia showed the phone to her, the person calling was her stepmother.

“You are not going to answe it?” Dorothy asked.

“Nope” Mia replied.

“Answer it so you will know why she is calling you” Dorothy said.

“OK fine” Mia replied and picked it up.

“What do you want stepmother?” She asked.

“So I must want something before I call my daughter? Mia I don’t really know what you take me for?” She asked.

“You really want to know what I take you for” Mia asked.

“Yes please tell me, I want to know” Mrs Robertson said.

“You are the stupid, foolish and wicked woman that killed my mother and ruined my childhood, I am not your daughter and I can never be so watch your tongue” Mia said to her.

“Hmm Mia I never thought that you are the type of person that hold on to the past, all of these are in the past now, please let’s forget about it” she pleaded.

“Whatever so why are you calling me?” Mia asked.

“How are you doing and how are your studies going?” She asked.

“I am pretty sure that you didn’t call me just to ask me that” Mia said.

“OK fine the actually main reason why I called you is that I would like us to meet and discuss something” Mrs Robertson said.

“Which is?” Mia asked.

“I will tell you what when we meet” she replied.

“Meet me at your father’s hotel by 4pm today” she added.

“You are a crazy bitch” Mia said and hang up the call.

“What did she say?” Dorothy asked.

“She wants to meet with me” Mia replied.

“What for” Dorothy asked.

“Don’t know probably to ask for a favour for her stupid daughter Marcy” Mia replied.

“Your cookie is ready” the oven said.

“Wow the oven talks?” Mia asked.

“Yes it talks whenever something you are cooking or baking on it is ready” Dorothy replied.

“It is amazing, you won’t get a burnt product” Mia said.

Dorothy went to the oven, opened it and used a rag to bring out the cookie tray.

“Come and see Mia, it came out beautifully” Dorothy said.

“Really?” Mia asked and came to where Dorothy was.

“Omg it looks so beautiful and delicious” she said.

“Please can I take one?” She asked.

“Let it cool first you will burn your mouth” Dorothy replied.

“Oh that’s right, why don’t we make coffee and wait for the cookie to cool” Mia suggested.

“That’s good, let me bring the coffee” Dorothy said and went to bring the coffee from the refrigerator.
