High School: Way to Forever

Chapter 40: Cake.

"What can I do about him?" Asked Anna being not so surprised.

"You know how powerful he is." Grandmother Said.

"I'm seventeen and I have responsibilities to take care. These are those responsibilities which are not taken care by your child."

"We are Ashamed to even call him our child." Grandmother said.

"So am I, in calling him my father."

"For our sake..." Anna interrupted them.

"No I can't do anything you both are going to say."

She faced her grandfather and asked him,

"You have Grandmother with you since ages. You both got what you wanted. You are together with your love. But what about mother?" Anna asked.

"We talked to Marrie, Anna."

"I know what you both said."

Everyone was silent after this.

"You are not same Anna but we still are worried for you both. You have to take care of both yourself and your mother also." Grandfather said suddenly.

"Then stop worrying about us but start worrying about your son. He will soon commit a big mistake and will be in danger." Spoke Anna in frustrated voice.

Grandmother knew that her granddaughter didn't like her father, her son.

Seeing her both grandparents's face down, her heart twisted. In earlier days, they both had really helped her and her mother when her brother died.

"Okay, I will consider your offer. I will discuss it with mother."

As she had expected, their both eyes sparkled hearing this. She knew this very well that for her grandparents, her mother was not only a daughter-in-law but also a daughter.

They never had chance of having a daughter but after grandma Raechal's death, It was Grandma Sarah who had taken care of Marrie and Addie.

"You both continue to eat, I will go back." said Anna.

"An, We both are celebrating our 45th Anniversary. We want you to come on at occasion. You are our only grandchild."

Anna just listened and went outside.

When she reached home, she saw her mother making something.

"Mom, what are you cooking?"

"Ahh Anna, I'm baking your favorite cake. You quiz is coming. So I decided to boost you."

"Mom, can you make some extra also?" asked Anna.

"I can but why?"

"Um.. Mom I'm not alone in this so I need cake for other person also."

"Sure. Sure."

'Thank god mother didn't asked much about it.' Anna thought.

Anna went to her room and sat in front of the laptop.

But she decided to close it.

Anna sent a message to Alex.

ANNA- My mother is baking cake for us as we have to win the quiz.

ALEX- Elder sister, can you give me an extra bite?

Reading this, Anna immediately thought that phone, right now, was with Scott.

ANNA- Sure. Even I will make eat Scott cake my own hands. Happy?

ALEX- Yes elder sister. Now phone back to brother.

Anna chuckled reading this. She herself never much talked with a child. She was the youngest of all in her own family, so there were no children around her.

But seeing and talking with Scott made her remember how her brother was. Though he was older than her but still acted like a child.

She came back to senses when her phone vibrated.

ALEX- Thanks to you mother!

ANNA- No problem.

There was a slight blush on her cheek while messaging him.

....

Somewhere, outside the city.

"Sir, Miss. Anna is still seventeen years old. Not an adult."

"What else we can do to bring the Walkers and Steve down?" asked Kevin to one of his subordinates.

"Sir why don't we just kill her and her mother." suggested someone.

Kevin laughed hearing this.

"If we just kill her, what is the fun of seeing sorrow on their loved one's face.We will not kill her but will make sure that they faces some difficulties in their way." Spoke Kevin while making his drink.

"Sir, we all are ready to take action. Just waiting for your words."

"Not now." These words shocked everyone. It was best timing according to them.

"But why sir?" one subordinate asked.

"Let the flower blossom more. If we pluck a bud, it will not give you much benefit and happiness. But if you pluck a whole flower, you will gain benefits and happiness." Explained Kevin.

'We will have a good time together Anna.'

....

Anna went downstairs, and asked her mother to sit on the couch with her.

"What happened baby?"

"Someone came looking for me." Said Anna.

Mother Marrie was shocked and scared. "W-Was it C-Chris or his e-enemy?"

"None of these." mother Marrie's body relaxed a bit after hearing this.

"Grandparents."
