Episode 4
? Patleyâs POV ?
I angrily left my room. Slamming the door so hard on Stephanieâs face.
Everybody seems to like that girl.
Miriam this! Miriam that!
For heavenâs sake! It shouldnât be all about her.
Miriam is crazy, yet sheâs their favorite.
I used to be their favorite! I used to be everybodyâs favorite ?.
I used to be on everyoneâs lips. I used to be! Until suddenly Miriam Came and took all that away from me.
As I increased my pace,Walking briskly past numerous doors. I began to hear loud noises. It was coming from Revd Sister Magâs office.
I tipped closer and peered my ear against the door. She seems to be in argument with someone.
As I kept listening, the whole discussion came to place. I know the second voice to be old Audreyâs.
What are they talking about?
I seized my heavy breathes and focused more on what they were saying.
âIsnât a week too long?â
I faintly heard old Audrey say.
Too long for what?
I shut my thoughts and listened more.
âi donât want her getting used to her momâ
Hmm. What and who are they talking about. I suddenly grew so much interest and decided to listen more.
âShe wonât Audrey, Iâll make it clear to her. Besides she knows herself that this convent is her home and no one, not even her mom can change thatâ.
That was Mag speaking.
I have to listen more. I need to know what this is all about.
â Alright. Thatâs better. Miriam gets to travel a week beforeâŠ
Miriam? So thiis is about Miriam? Sheâs traveling?
Questions ran through my head as I tried to put it all together. Miriam is traveling?.
I continued listening to their discussion. I need to know everything.
âGood. And remember to tell her sheâs the Baby of this convent before she travelsâ old Audrey concluded.
Baby? Baby of this convent?? I almost freaked out. I felt the urge to rush in there and pinch that lousy mouth of hers.

I began to hear footsteps. Itâs like someone is coming. I quickly ran out of sight and hid myself at a close corner.
I peeped and saw old Audrey walk out from Magâs office taking the opposite direction back to her post.
I breath out and came out of my hiding place. Recalling what I just heard.
Baby? Baby of this convent?
I used to be that you Know. Even though I wasnât the youngest before Miriam came. I used to be everyoneâs favorite.
I was the prettiest and they were so fond of me. Till eight years old crying Miriam came.
Huh! Sheâs a goddamn spoiler!
I groaned and walked out of that place.
One of these days I am going to deal with Miriam.
I swore hard biting my lower lip.
Itâ almost Time for dinner and I havenât laid my eyes on Samantha.
Am so bored without her. I need her so bad. Where could she be?
I asked myself.
I would have gone to check her up in her room but I donât want to see that Crazy Miriamâs face.
Miriam and Samantha are Roomie.
Theyâve been pairing since childhood.
I just wish sister Mag wouy just switched Stephanie with Samantha.
Stephanie is boring me to my Marrow.
???? SARAH LUTHOREX????
âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ.
âMommy are you crying?â My three years old Paula asked me.
âNo baby. Mommy isnât cryingâ I lied picking out the tear drop from my lids.
I carried her and gently placed her on my lap.
âSo whatâs wrong with your eyes?â She asked wiping my face with her tiny fingers.
âNothing baby. Mommy is just thinking’â I replied truthfully.
âIs Mommy thinking something bad?â She Asked again.
I exhaled sharply. Paula and her questions.
âNo dear. Mommy is just thinking of your sisterâ
âI have a sister?â She asked with a bright smile.
âYes baby you doâ I whispered trying to hold my tears.
âWhere is she then? Why havenât I seen her? Is she big? Is she a baby? Whatâs her name?. when can I see her?âŠ.
Mommy why arenât you saying something?â
She asked lots of questions which I didnât know where to start answering from. I could no longer help it as I burst into uncontrollable tears.
âMommyâŠâshe pouted. Tears welling in her eyes.
âMommy why are you crying?â Paula sobbed wiping my face.
âItâs Nothing baby. Baby please donât cry. Why are you crying?â
â I am crying because Mommy is cryingâ she cried more.
âSshh hush now. See Mommy has stopped cryingâ I smiled wiping the tears from our both faces.
â Stop crying Paulaâ I added and she nodded.
âMommyâŠâ She sweetly called.
âYes baby?â I answered. Sniffing my nose.
âDo I really have a sister?â She asked again.uncertainty in her eyes.
â Yes Paula you do..you have a big sisterâ I smiled meekly and kissed her on her white silk hair.
âReally?..â her face lit up in excitement.
â Where is she? I want to meet her mommy. Where is she??â
Where is she?
I swallowed hard on that question.
Sheâs a Nun at the St. Mathews Cathedral.
