Chapter 33. Behind Death

Amanda

"Dale, I really have to go to my parents. It should've been yesterday and my mom had called me again. In their own way, I think they're worried about me."

Dale was reluctant in letting me go to my parents, he was not sure that I'd be coming back to stay with him.

"I'll come back this evening, or latest by tomorrow morning. My brother had just arrived from abroad and mom would like us to have a nice family dinner..."

"If you insist, then I'm picking you up tonight." He was not going to let this one go, he could be very stubborn. So I gave in and agree with him.

I was at my parents' hours later after he drops me off on his way to pick up Mable from school.

"Amanda...honey, come and join us for lunch. Monroe is coming in an hour then we'll talk in the study. He got some stuff he would like to discuss with you." Dad was telling me to sit and join them, Aaron was there already as he pats the chair next to him silently
