Chapter 29 Mrs Garcia first impression of Amy.
She doesn't know what kind of past Amy had but it was definitely a rough one that had alot of
abuse in it.
She went back to her room deep in thought, she needed to bring up this topic about Amy's past
and what happened, she already knew about her being an orphan and moving from foster to foster
homes but she didn't really know what caused it and what happened in between, she also thought
about involving Ricky in it but it didn't sit well with her, she needed her to really feel comfortable enough
with her to open up.
The next thing she heard was her alarm, apparently she had been in so much thought she dozed
off right in between reading a book and drink chocolate coffee. Rachel looked outside her windows and
saw the Butler's car in the drive way which surprised her, that could only mean one thing, Her parents
were finally back from the business trip. This could take a different turn if her parents discovered she
had brought a complete stranger into their house without their knowledge, and No, not that they were
those kind of strict Elites, they were just very protective of their two children.
To avoid them seeing Amy before she got to introduced her, she quickly did her morning routine
and put on some sweats. She went to Amy's room to find the room empty, the bed was properly laid
and pillow's were put in place like nobody actually spent the night here, she was about to put Amy on
call when she opened the closet and still saw Amy's bags there, blowing out a sigh of relieve which
was breathe of anxiety she never knew she was holding, she checked the time and it was a few
minutes past eight, she wanted to have a talk with Amy so she canceled all her morning meetings and
left her meeting with Xander, he was about to receive what she knows as the high end of a crazy
woman.
She headed downstairs which she still thinks personally no matter how beautiful and elegant it
was, Rachel johnson still found it unnecessary and having too much steps but she's supposed to be
Araceli who is used to it so who is she to complain. She passed Ace room which was left ajar alittle bit,
she opened the door completely and the room was empty, but the lego batman themed bed frame and
everything else in the room had a lego theme, honestly Ace was going through different phase of
childhood, when she got to know him, it was every thing spider man, now it's lego, only God knows
what next, maybe a jungle themed bed room from tarzan or jungle book.
Her nose seemed to find the kitchen before she got there, I mean she has eaten the maids food
and they were good, but this was definitely Amy's handwork she recognized the aroma of her waffles
and pancakes. Who she didn't expect to walk into was her mom listening to whatever Ace was telling
her serving full expression and little exaggeration.
"Morning mom," Rachel said hugging her from behind while she sat on the stool they all sat on for
breakfast.
"I didn't tell me you would be back yesterday," Rachel said touching her chest faking hurt.
"Oh common, we just wanted to surprise you kids," Mrs Garcia said with little of her Italian accent
coming through.
"Wow Araceli, I guess the invincible potion I made finally worked, I mean even your friend greeted
me, maybe it's just you who's not seeing me," Ace said, it was the sarcasm that surprised her, since
when did Ace know sarcasm, she got busy for two days and boom!!, the kid is using sarcasm like his
second language.
"Hey Ace," Rachel said chuckling a little bit as she roughed his hair just like she always did.
"Yeah, about your friend Araceli, can we talk?," Mrs Garcia asked.
"Uhm yeah, definitely," Rachel replied.
"Alright" Mrs Garcia said walking out of the kitchen area into the hall way leading to one of her
studies, they got in and Mrs Garcia's face was lit up by the orange light giving out an edgy vibe to her,
she kept looked at Rachel as if she expected her to say something.
"What's the problem Mom, or are my suppose to like telepathically know what you are thinking
about?," Rachel asked.
"Oh common Araceli, you brought a stranger to the house, she prepared breakfast for Ace and I,
after insisting," Mrs Garcia said.
"Well that's just Amy for you," Rachel said chuckling a bit.
"So is that just who she is, someone who insist on making breakfast and that's it," Mrs Garcia said
with alot more italian accent, she could swear Ace got his personality from her and not just looks.
"Of course not mom, she's my friend, we met a few days ago and we clicked, I even slept over at
her place last night," Rachel tried to assure her.
"Awwwnn, you guys already had a sleepover," Mrs Garcia cooed touching her cheeks.
"Mom don't make it weird please," Rachel said.
"I'm not!, I guess I'm just excited for you, I'm since you were twelve, Alice had been your only
friend and now 12years later you have a new friend and I have to say, I like this Amy girl, she seems
nice," Mrs Garcia said.
"She's also funny too, and make's the best breakfast ever too," Mrs Garcia added.
"But seriously mi amore, if she makes you happy then I'm fine with her," Mrs Garcia said with
seriousness in her tone as her voice dropped an octave.
"Thanks mom," Rachel said hugging her.
"By the way, was anything wrong, I heard she came over at late night," Mrs Garcia asked.
Rachel thought about tell her the trust about why Amy was here but she last minute decided not to
disclose her reason of being here. So she told her mother that it was just an unplanned sleep over.
"By the way Ara, I'm also thinking of putting Ace in school instead of home schooling him, I think
it's getting really lonely for him and I want him to have real friends and not those rich kids with annoying
british accent," Mrs Garcia said.
"Mom!!!," Rachel exclaimed.
"Whattt, the accent annoys me," Mrs Garcia said.
"They school in the united kingdom in prestige school mom, what did you expect, Russian
accents??," Rachel asked folding her arms looking at her mom in disapproval.
"Whatever, aren't you going to the office to day?," Mrs Garcia asked.
"Yeah I'm, I have lunch with Xander," Rachel said in a bored tone.
"Oh my, that reminds me, Xander, it's been a while since he came around, hope his doing ok?" Mrs
Garcia asked.
Her mom always had a soft spot for Xander, he literally could do no wrong in her eyes, to her, he
was the perfect handsome son of the Millers who graduated with a first class honor in business and is
head their company now as a young CEO, but little did she know that the Xander she held so perfect in
her eyes, was a bloody monster and a sick manipulator.
"He's fine Mom, everything is fine," Rachel said in a bored monotonous tone.
"Araceli Alivira Camilla Garcia don't you dare use that tone with me when talking about your
fiancé!," Mrs Garcia warned.
Exactly the point she was making, she took Xander to serious that if her tone wasn't cherry while
talking about Xander, she could stand a chance of getting a good whip if she wasn't careful.
"I'm sorry Mom, but can I go and eat now?, I have already missed my usual morning run," Rachel
asked.
"Yes, you may go," Mrs Garcia said breathing out, she could help but feel her daughter was having
a fight with her fiancé and she wouldn't open up about it, and that's just Araceli being Araceli.
Rachel returned to the kitchen and found Amy washing the dishes, it got her annoyed, she was her
guest not here to replace the maids on duty.
"Amy stop that, you are my guest not a maid, I won't have you do that," Rachel said in a strong
voice.
"It's ok Araceli, I don't want to get too comfortable, I'll be on my way soon, Ricku is coming to pick Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
me up," Amy said smiling while drying the dishes.
"Ok, that's it, what's with you and not wanting to get too comfortable, I checked on you in the night
and you were sleeping on the edge of the bed without pillow or blankets and it was cold," Rachel asked
with worry in her eyes.
Amy bit her lips while looking at the ground, her hands fidgeted a little, making her drop the plate in
her hands and look back to face Araceli.
Rachel thought she was about to cry or something and didn't know how else to address the
situation and was even tempted to change the topic to diffuse the air that had suddenly gotten thick
with tension.
"You really wanna know huh?,"....
