The time for the truth has finally arrive, as the moment filled with a lot of tensions between Marcella, Mrs. Johnson and David but finally the time has come for the truth to be revealed to all of the people around Mrs. Johnson’s house for Arianna’s sake as David and Mrs. Johnson looks at Marcella, waiting to hear what Marcella is going to say.
“Marcella, speak up! What is it that you wanted to tell us?” David asks with furrowed brows, looking at Marcella while waiting to hear what she is going to say next.
Marcella breathes out in order to calm down herself, preparing herself to deliver the truth to her family.
“I hope what I’m going to say to you will remain here and nobody is supposed to know about it till you are all done with your own investigations.” Marcella speaks while looking at both Mrs. Johnson and David, insisting them to keep a secret to what she is going to say.
Mrs. Johnson and David looks at each other, baffled with Marcella’s words with bewilderment feeling inside their hearts.
Mrs. Johnson knits her brows. “What is the matter, Marcella? Do you have something inside your heart that have been bothering you for quite a long time now?” Mrs. Johnson asks.
Marcella’s heart starts to race faster with unbalance rhythm as Marcella looks at Mrs. Johnson and David, unaware of what to do in order to deliver the truth.
Marcella nods. “Yes, I have been keeping this secret for a long time now, and I think this is a perfect time for me to tell you all of the truth.” Marcella says.
Mrs. Johnson and David looks at each other with quizzical looks on their face, confused on what Marcella is saying as they return back their gazes back to Marcella.
“Okay, tell us Marcella, what is it that you wanted to tell us for a long time now?” Mrs. Johnson asks.
The awaited time for the truth has finally arrived, as Marcella is more than ready to deliver the truth to Mrs. Johnson and David for the sake of Arianna’s safety.
“The issue is-”
“Mom! Mom!” The voice of Jane’s call cuts Marcella’s voice short before she finishes her sentences, as her heart hammers fast with terror look on her face as Jane is approaching nearby walking from behind coming towards the house’s balcony.
When Jane arrives, Marcella averts her gaze from Jane and stairs down blankly with fear creeping inside her heart.
Marcella knits her brows. “Did I interrupt you guys? Jane asks as everyone at the balcony is silently looking at her while Marcella is looking down.
Mrs. Johnson shakes her head with disagreement. “Not at all.”
Marcella raises up her head, and then looks at David and Mrs. Johnson. “Mrs. Johnson and Mr. David. I forgot to put some of the ingredients on my dishes inside the kitchen, I need to go right now so that I can proceed with my cooking.” Marcella says.
Mrs. Johnson furrows her brows. “What is with the hurry? There is a lot of maids inside the kitchen right there, you can tell anyone to do that for you.” Mrs. Johnson says.
Marcella huffs a nervousness laugh. “No Mrs. Johnson! It is just I have forgot to give them my full instructions on how they are supposed to prepared the dishes for the breakfast meals, that’s all.” Marcella says.
Mrs. Johnson nods. “Okay then. We will talk more later.” Mrs. Johnson says.
Marcella nods. “Okay.” Marcella says.
Marcella leaves the balcony place, averting her gaze from Jane as she returns back to the kitchen while David looks at her with bewildered look on his face, confused with Marcella’s actions.
“What were you guys talking about with Marcella?” Jane asks with her brows knitted together as she looks at David and her mother.
“Nothing serious.” Mrs. Johnson says.
“So, what brought you here Jane?” David asks.
Jane releases a breath. “I have come here to inform all of you that, I’m planning on starting my business project with Arianna very soon.” Jane says.
Mrs. Johnson and David startles with astonishment on their faces, taken aback after hearing the business proposal from Jane as they look at each other with complete surprise on their faces.
Mrs. Johnson raises a brow. “Are you really sure of what you are saying dear?” Mrs. Johnson asks Jane, not completely believing of what she hears from her daughter.
Jane nods. “Yes, I’m one hundred percent sure of what I’m saying to you guys.” Jane says with a smile widening on her face.
“What has gotten into you Jane?” David asks.
“What is with the sudden change of mind towards Arianna?” Mrs. Johnson asks.
There are many things that have happened to Arianna and Jane throughout their lives as they were living together, but almost throughout their lives they never had a good relationship between each other after Arianna broke up the engagement between Jane and her boyfriend Alex after she found out that she was about to marry a gangster three years ago.
“Because, I want to make peace with her this time,” Jane sighs and continues.” I know you might be all surprised seeing me here talking about Arianna, but we are grown up people right now. there are no benefits for us to keep on fighting each other for the things that are already in the past.” Jane says.
Jane’s words warm Mrs. Johnson and David’s hearts as they glance at each other with wide smile on their faces.
“I’m proud of you, my daughter. Now I think it is the right time for you to punch things up with your sister-in-law because you guys have been having a lot of fights for years now.” Mrs. Johnson says.
“There is no day that you have made me happier than today, I’m glad that you both have come into terms and make peace between each other.” David says with the smile brightening on his face.
“I hope this will be the first step towards the transitioning of a good relationship between you and Arianna.” Mrs. Johnson says.
“I hope so too mom.” Jane says.
David spreads his arms wide open, welcoming Jane into a hug. “Come my dear sister.” David says.
Jane walks towards David’s space, and then wraps her arms around David into a hug with a mischievous smile on her face.
“Mission accomplished. Now I have finally earned the trust of my family as i keep on proceeding with my next mission inside this house.” Jane speaks to her inner thoughts, satisfied with the results of her wicked moves.
