"Good morning father, Aunt Beatrice. Who is this father?" Natalia interrupted making her father angry at her

"Talia, this is not the time for questions; you can ask your questions once I am done." her father reprimanded

"As I was saying Miss -"

"Blaire Willows sir"

"Yes Miss Willows, please do not forget all I just told you so that you would not lose your job" he warned and went to his car driving off

"Now Miss Willows your duty is to take care of the house and ensuring everything is in order at all times. Let me show you around so you can resume your duty." Beatrice said taking her into the living room to the kitchen then upstairs

"I will warn you not to enter Nathan's room or you will face his wrath. Every member of this family has someone cleaning their room already so you just take care of mostly the living room and other places"

"Aunt Beatrice is she the new maid?" Natalia interrupted again

"Yes she is; this is Natalia the younger of the two children" Beatrice pointed out

"Good morning Natalia," Blaire greeted earning a smile from Natalia

"Morning, I hope we'll be wonderful friends." Suddenly a shadow was casted on them and this made Blaire who had guessed it was Nathan nervous.

"Natalia you are not going to be friends with her, am I clear?" Nathan said before scowling at Blaire "Let us go downstairs now!" he said tugging at her arm

"I'm coming." she followed. When they got downstairs Natalia shouted "I am not a baby Nathan; so you better don't try to boss me around now just because of what-"

"Shut up Talia! I expected you to be wiser than this." Nathan shouted making Natalia burst into tears.

"Nathan you do not need to shout at your sister, try to take things lightly with her" Beatrice said to him while Blaire watched all that was happening in surprise and she reminded herself not to cross paths with Nathan Smith

"Blaire I want you to go the dining room and assist the cook in setting the table" Beatrice ordered

Blaire who remembered the place immediately bowed and moved leaving angry Nathan and Beatrice alone in the living room.

Upstairs in Natalia's room her mother came to console her "Natalia don't be angry with your brother, he doesn't just trust that new maid to disclose all that is happening; she can be a spy for all we know" Gloria said

"I know but he never shouts at me, I was so sad and scared." she said as her mother hugged her

"Sorry my lovely baby, we won't give him dinner." she joked making Natalia smile.

"He will come begging me and I will not heed to his pleading." they hit their palms together laughing.

They moved down stairs with confidence smiling at each other.

"Good morning Ma'am." Beatrice greeted and turned to Natalia "Talia I want to apologize on Nathan's behalf please forgive his harshness."

"Aunt Bea you call that-" Nathan started but was quieted by Beatrice who raised her hand

"As I was saying Talia do not mind Nate, you understand all that is going on that is why he is been skeptical." she persuaded

"Thank you Aunt Bea; now for you my very stubborn brother, if you want me to forgive you, it will take a trip to the mall over the weekend." she said smiling making Nathan scowl "Okay no problem, I will take that as a yes!" she said childishly folding her arms
