The George's Tradition
Subtitle : In the lion's den
Riel walked into the room furiously as tears dropped from her eyes steadily as she sat on the bed , recollecting memories of their being together , how Jackson Hewitt cared and loved her until she showed up , that she devil , Ashley Standford , Jackson's first love .-
Since that moment Jackson treated her like trash and neither did he take responsibility for getting her pregnant nor played the role of a responsible father .
“Can we come in Mom ? * Ivy and Leah asked in unison .
“yes you can babies * Riel replied from the other end as Sapphire turned the door knob and let the kids in . Riel quickly wiped her tears before facing her kids and letting out a smile .
“Mom were you crying ? " Leah asked looking concerned as she stared at her Mom's puffy eyes “No baby , I'm not” Riel replied as she beckoned at them to come closer
“Well we saw a bad guy smoking over the lawn this evening Mom , Sapphire closed the blinds immediately she noticed his presence , I was wondering who he was " Ivy said blinking her eyes while she spoke.
“he's nobody Ivy take it off your mind sweetheart ” Riel said smiling
“mom it's time * the duo said together
“Time to do what girls ? ” Riel asked looking confused
“ Today is the all girls night out Mom , you promised “ Ivy reminded her Mom
“Ummmm..... I forgot about it babies we could go next time ” Riel said forcing a smile but this time it didn’t get to the kids as they both frowned their faces and immediately Sapphire walked into the room with a cart containing Riel's luggage
“It's work again ” Leah mumbled sadly
“I'm sorry girls . I promise I will make it up to you both ” Riel said coolly while Ivy scoffed
“Not like you care Mom , it's always work work work ,only grandmother keeps time for hangout” Ivy sneered angrily “Do not promise us you haven't kept any which you said you would either ” Leah added as Riel sniffed .
“I'm beginning to think you are not our Mom ,I don't wish you a safe trip * Ivy said walking out of the room
“You just created a scar Mom , I think you do not love us and I also do not wish you a safe trip , at least give us our Dad to keep us company since you are always busy". Leah added walking out of the room while Sapphire let out a gasp before following the kids suit .
Riel settled into the bed letting out the tears she has been trying to withhold . “ Fuck ...... why me ?” She yelled as she angrily threw the vase which laid on the top of the table close to the lamp stand causing a loud crash sound as she yelled with all her might , but the noise remained in the four corners of the walls of her room . Angrily she reached for an alarm clock which rings , Jackson Hewitt had gifted her the Alarm clock on the eve of her getting this job as a special agent .
Fuming angrily she picked it up,her palm brushed the medal on the table , causing a burn she hissed painfully as she stared at the medal given to her in school for taking second place in the Marathon race .
She got up from the bed , opened the door and walked to her Mom's room but she didn't find her there instead she met her in the garden at the back of the kitchen
“Aheeemmm * Riel cleared her throat startling her Mom ,
“what are you doing here ?” Mrs George asked her daughter as she adjusted for her to sit with her on the small bench “I should be asking you that Mom ” Riel replied
“won't you ?” Mrs George asked Riel referring to the bench which she adjusted for her to accommodate them beth . “I'm not here to sit Mom, what's with this ? ” Riel asked stretching her palm out for her Mom to see .
“ Did you come in contact with silver ? ” Mrs George asked standing up immediately on sighting the bleeding spot , “why shouldn't I come in contact with silver ?Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
What's the motive behind it ? " Riel replied with a question
“There shouldn't be anything made of silver in my home , I'm sure Sapphire got rid of everything silver so how did you get this ? ” Mrs George said dryly .
“ That is not the answer to my question Mrs George “ Riel replied snapped becoming impatient already .
“ Riel do not just come in contact with silver " Mrs George probed
"You need-to tell me why I shouldn't because this is the second time this shit is flappening Mom and you know what is happening Mom” Riel rasped in one breath Content ~
“ What's there just to adhere to the rules , no coming in contact with silvers ” Mrs George snapped getting all worked up

“ So taking precautions that would help your life has suddenly makes you feel you are not human ? “ Mrs George asked feigning annoyance . “that's not the answer to my question Mrs George * Riel reminded her Mom frowning her face hard
“ So my precautions are now questions Riel ? " Mrs George asked her daughter as she gazed into her eyes
“And I want to know the reason behind this damn precautions because I'm tired of being a golden girl” Riel replied flaring up
“It's tradition " Mrs George replied raising her voice on her daughter's
“tradition ?” Riel asked as she let out a scoff before releasing a taunting laughter
“WOW ..... You know if you could probably conimunicate with your ancestors please do tell them Riel is tired andsick of such damn ~ traditions , I know you are not saying the trith to me but I'll get to the root of this ” Riel said firmly befote walking out of the gardenbriskly as she hissed irritated by the statement .
