*SWITCHED*

chapter 11

*modern Times*

"This is the deification of SAFE for you?" Sandra questioned looking at the old 2 story house more a cabin in front of her with disgust. She is a clean freak and it looks like that no one has entered the in 10 years.

"Shut up Sand! that lover of yours have control all over the city including police and cameras. he cam easily find us if we go somewhere that matches your definition of safe" Bella said clearly annoyed.

"He is not my lover only a bastard! and this place looks like its not been opened for at least 10 years " Sandra said clearly pissed off.

"Don't judge a book by its cover Sand!" Bella said and walked towards the house as Sandra followed her.

Entering the hut Sandra couldn't restrain a gasp escaping her mouth.

The house's inside was nothing like the outside. it was well decorated,super furnished and damn cleaned.

What the hell!

"Who is there?" Came a bold voice.

Sandra looked up only to find an old lady standing there on stairs.

Her sharp eyes which were on Bella moved towards me and somehow.....softened!

I am positive i have never met this woman in my entire life but she looked somewhat .....familiar.

I bet i sound crazy!!

"Ummm grandma! can we stay here for a few days we are in some touble?" Bella asked

Wait what? From when did Bella had a grandmother.

Didn't she died when she was young?

"Off course my dear come in!" The old lady said walking down stairs.

"When did you had a grandmother?" I whispered

"Long story!" Bella replied

"Tell me in short!" Sandra insisted

"Seriously Sandra not a great time!" Bella said

Sandra frowned. Bella was avoiding this talk somehow which was weird. she only avoid talking when she is hiding something

"Come sit here!"The old lady gestured towards the couches.

Sandra and Bella both sat down

"well you girls must be hungry right let me bring you something to eat" The old lady said

"Uhhh No grandma i am full. thank you" Bella replied immediately

"I am hungry grandma!"

Bella head snapped towards Sandra as she gave her a glare.

Sandra being Sandra ignored her and looked at the lady with a smile.

The old ladies heart melted as she said she would be back in a minute.

Bella internally groaned as knew exactly why Sandra said she was hungry when she wasn't . seriously this woman never eat after 8 in night since she was 12.

"Now tell me what are you hiding?"

Here came the question Bella was trying to avoid. Bella started panicking. she knew she can't tell her the truth because Sandra would freak out.

but at this moment she couldn't think of an lie.

What should i say? what should i say? Bella asked herself

"Uhhhh well this woman isn't my grandmother!"

Bella confessed and immediately cursed herself as Sandra yelled "What?" her voice hitting hard on Bella's ear drum

"Shhhhh" i shushed her.

Oh God it would the death of me if della( the old lady) hears her.

"Then who is she? what is your relation with her? don't tell me you are trying to sell me or something?" Sandra whispered. her question literally made Bella question if Sandra was in her senses or not.

Off course she wasn't.

"Selling you isn't a bad idea as for my relation with her. she......is has a mental condition where she assumes things by herself and believes them. i once met her at a market and helped her after which she assumed that i am her grand daughter. i didn't correct her not wanting to break her heart. she treats me kindly!"

what a good liar am i!

Bella praised herself.

"So what we are doing is basically taking advantage of a sick old lady?" Sandra said raising an eyebrow.

Shit! i haven't thought about that.
