Episode 4

? Patley’s POV ?

I angrily left my room. Slamming the door so hard on Stephanie’s face.

Everybody seems to like that girl.

Miriam this! Miriam that!

For heaven’s sake! It shouldn’t be all about her.

Miriam is crazy, yet she’s their favorite.

I used to be their favorite! I used to be everybody’s favorite ?.

I used to be on everyone’s 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 Mag’s 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 Audrey’s.

What are they talking about?

I seized my heavy breathes and focused more on what they were saying.

“Isn’t a week too long?”

I faintly heard old Audrey say.

Too long for what?

I shut my thoughts and listened more.

”i don’t want her getting used to her mom”

Hmm. What and who are they talking about. I suddenly grew so much interest and decided to listen more.

“She won’t Audrey, I’ll make it clear to her. Besides she knows herself that this convent is her home and no one, not even her mom can change that”.

That was Mag speaking.

I have to listen more. I need to know what this is all about.

” Alright. That’s better. Miriam gets to travel a week before


Miriam? So thiis is about Miriam? She’s 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.

“Good. And remember to tell her she’s the Baby of this convent before she travels” 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. It’s 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 Mag’s 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 wasn’t the youngest before Miriam came. I used to be everyone’s favorite.

I was the prettiest and they were so fond of me. Till eight years old crying Miriam came.

Huh! She’s 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.

It’ almost Time for dinner and I haven’t 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 don’t want to see that Crazy Miriam’s face.

Miriam and Samantha are Roomie.

They’ve been pairing since childhood.

I just wish sister Mag wouy just switched Stephanie with Samantha.

Stephanie is boring me to my Marrow.

“Mommy are you crying?” My three years old Paula asked me.

“No baby. Mommy isn’t crying” I lied picking out the tear drop from my lids.

I carried her and gently placed her on my lap.

“So what’s wrong with your eyes?” She asked wiping my face with her tiny fingers.

“Nothing baby. Mommy is just thinking’” I replied truthfully.

“Is Mommy thinking something bad?” She Asked again.

I exhaled sharply. Paula and her questions.

“No dear. Mommy is just thinking of your sister”

“I have a sister?” She asked with a bright smile.

“Yes baby you do” I whispered trying to hold my tears.

“Where is she then? Why haven’t I seen her? Is she big? Is she a baby? What’s her name?. when can I see her?
.

Mommy why aren’t you saying something?”

She asked lots of questions which I didn’t know where to start answering from. I could no longer help it as I burst into uncontrollable tears.

“Mommy
”she pouted. Tears welling in her eyes.

“Mommy why are you crying?” Paula sobbed wiping my face.

“It’s Nothing baby. Baby please don’t cry. Why are you crying?”

” I am crying because Mommy is crying” she cried more.

”Sshh hush now. See Mommy has stopped crying” I smiled wiping the tears from our both faces.

” Stop crying Paula” I added and she nodded.

“Mommy
” She sweetly called.

“Yes baby?” I answered. Sniffing my nose.

“Do I really have a sister?” She asked again.uncertainty in her eyes.

” Yes Paula you do..you have a big sister” I smiled meekly and kissed her on her white silk hair.

“Really?..” her face lit up in excitement.

” Where is she? I want to meet her mommy. Where is she??”

Where is she?

I swallowed hard on that question.

She’s a Nun at the St. Mathews Cathedral.
