THE CONVERSATION

Hela knocks on Mrs. Brown door,

Mrs. Brown ; Come in !

Hela ; Thank you, Mam...

Mrs. Brown ; Ha ! “Hela"... Well thanks a lot dear... I have been waiting for you... (*change in tone*) AND YOU MISTER PHILIP...

Philip in despair a bit of awkwardness

Hela ; Then I will take my leave Mrs. Brown ...

Mrs. Brown ; Yes, Hela ... and Thanks a lot... Hope you do well in your academics...

Hela ; Thanks Mrs. Brown ... Enjoy your lunch !

Hela left the office...

Mrs. Brown ; Well, how are you, my Dear son ? I have been trying to call and text you... Well I guess I should have come up with this idea sooner... Making a girl to call to my office.

Philip ; Mom ! I mean Mrs. Brown... I was busy practicing... Very busy ! And my mobile was on silent... So I guess we should blame the mobile ...

Mrs. Brown ; Ha ! , Philip, SHUT UP, SHUT UP WITH THE NONSENSE... I already informed you three days ago... That I will be in a very important meeting... So Today, which is the seventh of March... You were supposed to babysit your sister IRIS... Did you forget that Philip ?

Philip ; Mom ! I am busy with my practice, I have a match this weekend... You don't want your son to be a failure, right ? Come on Ma... Why don't you find someone else to babysit Iris ? Or if your okay, I will take Iris to my practice... How's that ?

Mrs. Brown ; Philip. You're the end of me... all I have right now is you... Not even your father... And I ain't gonna trust anyone with my baby. So you better take her home...

Philip ; Ma ! Please... I swear I am not gonna take my eyes off of her, when I am practicing..., and I will take her to McDonald's after my practice... so please let me go...

Mrs. Brown ; Okay Philip... Well I am in a hurry... See you... And please go and pick up Iris before 4 ....

Philip ; YES MOM !

Mrs. Brown ; Okay... Bye ( *hands him the house key and hugs him*)

Meanwhile, Hela and Ariana

Ariana ; Hey... Hela where have you been ? I was searching for you... And did you hear there is a freshers party coming up... What you gonna wear...

Hela ; Are you done ? Well, I was asked for a help... Guess who ?

Ariana ; Help ? Girl, Hela. I don't care about your so-called helping nature... All I care is the dress, you and I are gonna wear... So better tell me what it is or let me pick it out for you...

Hela ; (*rolls her eyes*) well since you don't care about me... I helped Mrs. Brown...

Ariana ; wait, wait... Who ? THE WHO ? Who's she ?

Hela ; Mrs. Brown... Hmm, the principal... Why will you even know her... You ain't even interested in the college faculty but the college students... (*sarcastic smirk*).

Ariana ; Huh! Hela, you know me girl... Yes, I am indeed interested in them... So that's why is the reason I am askin' you what dress you wear.... You better tell me girl !
