“I’m glad you understand!” Madelyn happily went up to her and hugged her.
She eagerly took the thermos from Rosario and sat down beside a small table.
“Why’d you come out here all of a sudden? Do you know how worried Mr. Jent and Mr. Jardin are? Goback tomorrow!”
“There’s no need for you to try and persuade me; I won’t go back. Besides, it won’t make a differencewhether I’m there or not. They won’t worry about me.”
Rosario looked at the used pot and Worcestershire sauce on the kitchen counter on the balcony.
“This is what she’s been eating when I’m not around. How could she go through such a thing? She’sMs. Jent!’ she thought.
Rosario was a little heartbroken. After all, she had watched Madelyn grow up, so she was like her ownchild.
“Madelyn, is this all you’re having for lunch?”
Madelyn took a big bite of carne frita and nodded, “I don’t have ingredients at home, so I just madesome noodles. But I think I added too much Worcestershire sauce. It’s a little too salty. Also… I thinkthe Worcestershire sauce has gone bad. It tasted a little funny when I ate it!”
Rosario walked over and poked Madelyn’s head with her finger, “Why didn’t you check its expirationdate? What if you get a stomachache from it? Don’t eat it anymore. I’ll send
you home tomorrow, and you should apologize properly to Mr. Jent. Then this whole matter will beconsidered over.” ”
Madelyn’s hand, which was holding her cutlery, froze momentarily, “I already said I wouldn’t be goingback. If you really insist on making me, I’ll leave right now.”
She set down the cutlery and stopped eating. Then, she walked toward the door.
Rosario immediately stopped her, “Madelyn, if you’re not going back, do you plan on staying at ashabby place like this for the rest of your life?”
“Why not?”
“This place is shabby and dilapidated. What’s so good about it? Madelyn, be good… Let’s go home,okay?”
“What about it? If you’re going to throw me out, too, then I truly won’t have anywhere to go. I don’t wantto go home. I lost my home after my mother’s death. Rosario…can you not throw me out?” Madelynlowered her head as tears streamed down.
“You silly girl! Why are you crying? Look around, Madelyn. There’s nothing here, and it’s tiny. It’snothing compared to your house.”novelbin
Madelyn wiped her tears with the back of her hand.
“It’s alright. I’ll go find part-time jobs. I know how to cook, paint, and play the piano. Even if none ofthose work out, I can work as a waitress to support myself.
“You’re the daughter of a wealthy family! How could you even think of doing such things?” Rosariocontinued helplessly, “Stop crying now… Stay here if you want to! Tomorrow, I’ll buy you somegroceries. I won’t be able to stay home and take care of you tomorrow; I need to go to Mr. Jardin’s
place and take care of Jadie for a few days. Stay put here, and don’t leave the house if you don’t needto. It isn’t safe here at night.”
Madelyn nodded, “What’s happened to Jadie?”
“She got injured and hasn’t recovered. Mr. Jardin can’t take care of her,” said Rosario.
“He can hire a caretaker. Why’d he have to take you away? What ‘ll happen to me if you leave? You’remine.”
Madelyn sniffled arid hugged Rosario tightly.
Rosario stroked Madelyn’s long, soft hair, “I’ll only be gone for a few days. Once you’re back home, I’llmake all sorts of delicious dishes for you every day.”
Madelyn did not want to go back.
It was late at night. The curtains were thin, so the moonlight outside shone in.
Madelyn and Rosario slept on the same bed.
Madelyn knew she moved a lot when she slept and often kicked away the covers, so the two tuckedthemselves in separate blankets.
Madelyn had slept the entire day, so she could not fall asleep. She laid under the covers and stared atthe ceiling as she counted her fingers absentmindedly.
‘Why’d Zach ask Rosario to take care of Jadie? Wasn’t she doing fine today? He’s surely doing this onpurpose. Rosario can take care of Jadie for a few days, but she can’t keep on taking care of her.Rosario’s mine,’ she thought.
That night, Madelyn heard Rosario leaving the house when she was half asleep.
It was starting to get bright out.
However, after what seemed like less than half an hour, Rosario returned home again.
Madelyn smelled the aroma of delicious food.
