New Family

Arah POV.

****************

I have a good life with dad. We live in a normal life. But in truth, even though there were only two of us, I lived with him. My father said mom died giving birth to me.

It's sad because I grew up without a mother. Im actually happy with my father even though my mother is not there because my father did not fail in raising me. I am very happy with my life..

I looked at dad who seemed to be deep in thought. I sat beside him and looked at him. He smiled at me."Pah, are you okay?" I asked dad. He looked at his hand that was resting on the table."Sweetheart, I have something to say, son. Did you know that you will have a step mom?" I smiled at dad. I thought the problem was just about my step mom."Pah, I know that I will have a step mom. I accept her as long as the important thing is that where you are happy, I will be there too." I held dad's hand to get rid of his nervousness. "My daughter, I want to tell you tomorrow your step mom will arrive here. I don't want you to be alone when I go to my business trip." I sighed deeply and looked at dad. "Pah, its okay you don't have to worry I can handle myself. I want to meet my step mom and greet her tomorrow" I smiled with excitement. Dad caressed my head. "My daughter, I want you to be okay while I'm gone. You know you're the only one my mom left with me." He said tearfully. "Pah, I'll be okay. When mom is here, don't worry too much about me, I don't want to stress you out, dad." I hugged dad while he was wiping his tears. "Pah, I'm going to get ready for tomorrow, huh. I'm excited to meet mom." I jumped for joy while dad giggled. "Okay sweetheart. After you get ready, go to bed right away so you don't spoil your beauty." Dad and I laughed as I left to go at my room.

Honestly, when I found out that I was going to have a mother, I thought about what could happen. I actually thought that we might not get along. But let's see what happens tomorrow.

After I prepared what I will use tomorrow, I looked out the window. The sky is beautiful as if to indicate that tomorrow will be good. Little by little I fell asleep and appeared in my vision.

"Oh baby, you look like your father." I saw a female form that I thought was holding a baby. I could not see much of the face of the woman and child. I saw a man approach her and kiss the woman's forehead. "Love, look at our baby. He looks just like you." The man kissed the baby. " "she looks just like me, she is mine." The woman giggled. Little by little they disappeared from my vision as a little tear came out of the corner of my eye. I felt sleepy and fell asleep.

When I opened my eyes, I was exposed to a very chaotic room. I was surprised by what happened. Did something happen last night? I asked myself. Well nevermind, I'll just let my nanny clean my room.

I showered and got dressed while scrolling through facebook on my phone. The nanny came in and was surprised because of the clutter in my room. "Hehe nanny, I don't know what happened last night. I woke up to find my room messy. Please tell the other maid to clean my room nanny." He giggled because of what happened. "Yes my lady. Do you want me to fix your hair child." I smiled."yes nanny." she smiled at me.

Nanny Aleah has been working with us since I was a child. Let's say 20 years ago. She is 49 years old but she doesn't want to leave here because she has become a friend of us too so we let him live here especially since she is a widow. She took care of me for 20 years. Now I'm 20 years old and I feel like I'm still a baby for her.

She finished fixing my hair. "Thank you nanny." She smiled at me. "Your welcome daughter" I gave her a sweet smile.

"Umm nanny, what did you prepare for our guest. I think I already gave them the list of my favorite food right?"I'm excited to meet my new mother. "Ohh right my lady, they have finished preparing all the food. They are just getting ready on the balcony and in the rooms where your step mom's room is assigned." she answered me while fixing my skirt and gave me my phone.

A few minutes later, we heard a car horn outside the house. I quickly went to dad's to meet my step mom.When a woman who I thought was my step mom came out, the two women came down. One of them stepped on mud and screamed. "Momm........ I step out the dirt yuckkk.. hey can you clean this mess."

she instructed nanny Aleah. Wow the face is thick. looks like I want to make her face a rag in the mud. If you can order my nanny, there will be no respect. I clenched my fist when I heard a complaint from her.

I turned to a woman who was looking at me. she smiled at me. I gave her a fake smile because of the girl's attitude.

We entered the house and dad invited my step mom to the dinner table. I sat next to dad. I was facing my step mom and her children. They looked at me from head to toe.

Dad broke the silence when he spoke. "Darling, this is my dayghter Arah. Arah this is your mother and sisters. The tallest one is ria and the second is misha." So the name of the person who complained earlier was just because of the mud. Nice name suits you. "Ohh umm I am Arah. Nice to meet you all." I smiled at them. My step mom scolded me which caused which caused loss of appetite. My step mom's name is Adelle.

I ate a little and said goodbye to papa. "Umm anyway. I'll go to my room and rest first pah."
