"Tasha!", Bella yelled rushing up to Mary as she dragged Mary away from her grip. Mary was crying bitterly. Most of her KO KO hair had loosened, making her look more like a mad woman.

"Should you be questioning me or her? What am I even saying? Like, what the heck is your business if I decided to correct her or should i request your permission before doing so? If I could recollect well, I didn't hear you knock before entering.", Tasha asked rudely, breathing hard. Her sister totally annoyed her by storming into her room when she's just about to teach that brat a lesson she would never forget till eternity. She would've loved to see her beg with blood coming out from her eyes when she's done burning her skin but she can't do all that now, which really pissed her a lot..

"Tasha, what came over you that made you give your soul to the devil? Can you just listen to yourself and digest the useless words coming out of your mouth? For goodness sake, what the hell are you saying? You tried to burn her skin with an iron simply because you wanted to correct her. Are you that heartless?" Bella yelled back, certainly mad at her sister. If she hadn't showed up quickly, who knows what her Sister might have done to the poor girl.

Tasha hissed furiously like a snake.

"You can continue your sermon while I relax, listening to you. You're supposed to apologize if you are truly my sister because I wasted my strength slapping her, strength that I could have used for other things. She's supposed to be happy that someone like me touched her, many people would pay me to use my pretty hand that's more of a blessing, to hit them." she ended proudly, taking a few steps to sit on her cosy chair and lay, ignoring her sister's outburst. Her Elder Sister could yell at her for all she could care but that won't stop her from teaching that local girl a lesson for ignoring her. Can you imagine? A daughter of a nobody ignored her? No one tries messy things with her and goes scot-free.

"It's okay, Mary. I'm so sorry. Well, what did you do?" Bella enquired in a concerned tone.

"Ma'am...", Mary began. "I ....didn't do anything, I was only clearing the dirty clothes you asked me to wash when she called me. But to be sincere, I didn't hear her until I came out of your room and I never knew it's the second time she called me. I tried explaining to her but she didn't allow me to complete when she attacked.", Mary narrated, weeping more.

"Tasha, I can't believe you did this just because you called her twice even after she informed you that I was the one that gave her some tasks to carry out. Why is your heart harder than stone or may I even say even harder than an iron?"

Tasha watched with annoyance and so much contempt in her eyes. She felt like skinning her alive and giving her body to the vulture to feast on. she angrily took her high heel beside her bed throwing it on Mary.

"Tasha!!!", Bella screamed as the shoe hit Mary so hard on her forehead making her sank on the floor in deep pains as her forehead was on fire. Bella didn't see that coming or else, she could have prevented it.

" My head! My head!! My head!!!", Mary shouted holding her head tight. Bella raised her up but shocked to see blood all over the tiles; she had a deep cut on her forehead.

"Tasha, what have you done? What have you just done? Oh my God, Mary, somebody help me! Mom! dad!"

"Stop screaming! I didn't kill her. She's only pretending. Well, take her away from my room. I don't want my room to be filled with the odour of blood.", Tasha became frightened as she took her phone going through a door to her room's balcony.

Bella looked at Tasha angrily, she felt like giving her the beating of her life but first, she has to save the life of the grip.

MÃRY'S PØV

.

Whatever happened to me before the dawn or at the dawn, I did not know again as I felt pain on her forehead; my head was really banging hard.

ÑÃRRÃTØR'S PØV

Mary sharply awoke in the afternoon when she felt a sharp pain in her right hand also and some qualms in her stomach, forcing her to open her eyes.

A strange needle with its tail inserted in an queer looking tube connected with an unusual looking plastic metal device standing at its full length before her head was deeply buried in the back of her right hand. she plunge with fear.

Still, there were more odd things that installed fear into her for a moment. She was lying on an iron bed which had a sofa mattress and a pillow which was covered with a white bed sheet.

She looked around the room in which she found herself, and was able to make out a peculiarly whimsical house. She was trying to sit up when a dark complexioned lady dressed in a white gown came in carrying a stainless plate of assorted tablets. It was then she knew she was in the hospital.

The first time in her life she would be in the hospital. What wrong had she done to Tasha, a girl she was older than just because she worked for her family simply because she needed the money to train her siblings since her father was dead and being the first daughter? She couldn't allow only her mother suffer.

"Dad, mom, you two need to talk to Tasha like seriously because I don't even get her stupid premature attitude which she won't just let go. What has the poor girl done to her that made her treat her like she isn't a human or even a fellow lady like her? You won't believe this heartless Tasha simply attacked her to the extent of creating an excruciating wound on her forehead because she had called her name twice. She dealt with her mercilessly but how many times have you, our parents, called Tasha? She would ignore and behave like she didn't hear you call her name. What kind of attitude is this?" Bella growled angrily looking at Tasha with so much hatred in her eyes. She still does not understand why Tasha continued behaving like she owns the world simply because they have wealth. The same childish attitude which she grew up with since she's young, had gotten her into troubles. Even her parents were not left out.

Tasha ignored everything her Sis was saying because she's been spoilt. She was in no mood for nonsense and she's still regretting why she didn't burn that girl with the hot iron. She continued fiddling with her phone. She was just a little bit glad that Mary didn't die cause that had been her fears. She still isn't satisfied, she wants to punish her without anyone's interruption. Since her life she hate making decisions and later not carrying out her decisions. She had already made decision to burn that girl but she can't do it now.

"Tasha, is that true?", Queen asked her daughter wondering what kind of spirit had taken over her daughter that made her so heartless.

"What and what is true?", Tasha asked, not looking away from her phone, still engrossed with it.

"So, you're deaf and have not been listening to what your elder Sis had said at all? Are you okay? Okay, let me explain to you, Boss Lady. Why did you beat Mary up to the point of leaving her in a critical condition?

Tasha got up, straightened her dress well. "Mom, you know I hate repeating myself especially in front of an animal who simply can't mind her business. She's unpredictable. I've got more important things to do because it's only a jobless person that sits and discuss on a foolish topic. I can't waste my golden time talking. Excuse me.", Tasha said hissing as she proceeded to the stairs to her room.

"Mom, did you just hear her? She called me an animal. I, an animal? She actually insulted me. Dad, you aren't saying anything.", Bella shouted.

"You know I also have a golden time like your sister mentioned. Besides, I already had a long day on my business trip so I don't want an extra load in me. Also, your sister was absolutely right in everything she did. Excuse me." he arose, taking his case.

"Dad too!?", Bella managed to say, looking dumbfounded as she looked at her mother who was also dumbfounded.
