46. Anticipation of dread
"Lia, what do you think about this?"The first aunt asked her. They were all sitting together discussing the plans. First, they had to plant plants. Then they could do whatever they wanted."I'm thinking of some easy ones like leafy vegetables, groundnuts, and melons. We can try saffron too. I saw how some people create artificial temperature conditions."Lia was impressed. Seemed like the first aunt was really serious. "I found the land. The backyard of our yard has a waste space. We can use that to do this."The second aunt answered."But will mother and father agree?"All of them turned and looked at the third aunt. She was right.Then they looked at Lia."I'll ask Aster.

Lia felt that her heart was out of her body. Otherwise, how could she hear it beating so loud? She searched for Aster. She couldn't find him. Why was he not here when she needed him? She then proceeded to blink her eyes like something was irritating her.Maybe she looked like a crazy person. "Hi, Lia. I didn't think I would meet you here."Marvin stood before her. "I am also surprised to see you here."Lia debated recognizing him. She could act like she didn't know him but she rejected that."Mrs, Brooks, you know Mr. Lexor?"Someone came and asked her.

Marvin had showered and he opened the room with a towel on his neck. He was drying his hair."You woke up now.""What do you mean by drugging? What exactly happened?"Marvin stepped out of the room and Aster followed him."Sit down first. You need to know so many things."Aster listened as he was told. He sat before Marvin eagerly. "The people who work there are not just from me. So it gives outsiders a chance to do such wrong things.""Aster kept listening."But the in charge happened to keep an eye on drinks because we charge more for some drinks. And he found a person sneakily adding stuff. So when he was about to track that person, he saw me. Now every employee knows about me. So he just told me in order to get promoted.

She had to just go to other balconies as hers faced the east.For that, she went and knocked on Jake's room.Seeing the door open, she entered and was shocked.
