C3 Hazel Eyed

"Awwn, you are so cute, I think I should call you fluffy."

Lily looked at the cat and smiled. "What do you think? Lily rubs it's head lovingly. "Is fluffy okay?

"Mew." The cat replied. Lily smiled. "That's settled then, we'll call you fluffy." Lily carefully placed the cat on the bed in her room. "Stay still right here and wait for me while a take a quick shower, okay? Lily pats it's head. "Don't wander around."

Stepping out of the bathroom, lily found the room empty, she quickly grabbed a cloth to wear and hurried out to go in search of the cat. "Where did fluffy go?

"Fluffy! fluffy! she called quietly.

As soon as she stepped out of the room she heard Mrs. Robert scream.

"LILIAN ROBERTS!!! YOU ARE SO DEAD!!"

"Ohoh." Lily mouthed as she hit her forehead with her palm. "Finished! I am finished."

Lily went towards the kitchen to Mrs. Roberts. "Mom, what's wrong? She asked, feigning ignorance. "Why are you yelling? Lily was looking around stealthily, in search of Fluffy. "What happened?

The nerve of you to ask me that, huh! Mrs. Roberts barked. What is that thing in my living room?

"Oh Mom, that..that's um Fluffy, my pal.

"Your what?

"Mom calm down." Lily tried to make Mrs. Roberts calm. "You know shouting isn't good for your blood pressure.

"So what?

"No Mom." Lily said, making a sad face. "You know mom, I found it by the roadside. It was stuck in one of those corvette slabs by the road and seemed homeless and helpless, and you've always taught me to always help the helpless. So I helped it.

"Oh, so that is what happened? Mrs. Roberts asked pitifully.

"Yes Mom, that was what happened." Lily looked expectantly at her mother. "So Mom, can it stay? I mean, can I keep it?" She rubs it's lovely fur. "It's so lovely Mom, don't you think?

Lily quickly kissed Mrs. Robert's cheek. "I promise, we won't cause any mess, please Mom." she said pouting and blinking sheepishly.

"Okay...okay you brat." You know I can't say no to those puppy dog eyes of yours." Mrs. Roberts smiled as she pats Lily's head.

"Let's eat," Mrs. Roberts then looked towards the cat and smiled. "Fluffy, you too can come along and by the way you are welcome to the family."

Lily: "_"

Lily couldn't believe this was her Mom, who wouldn't go anywhere near pets. And she just agreed to having fluffy so easily? Lily blinked repeatedly as she touched her mother in disbelief. "Who are you and where did you hide my mom?

"Come to the table now." Mrs Roberts shook her head as she went to sit to eat dinner.

"Wow, I can't believe this is my mom." she accepted fluffy without complaining? She didn't even lecture me on how much mess it would cause." Lily smiled happily. "This is amazing."

"So, is this why you came back late? Mrs. Roberts stated as she served the food.

"Yes Mom, it's one of the reasons why I came back late." Lily explained.

"And the other reason is? Mrs. Roberts asked with a raised brow.

"I actually met a silly richie brat today."

"What do you mean? Mrs. Roberts asked, furrowing her brow.

Then, Lily narrated everything about her encounter to her mom.

"You know you should have listened to his explanation." Mrs. Roberts said seriously. "You never know he might have a good reason why he was rushing off and besides, not all rich people are bad so you shouldn't hate them all.

"Oh mom please." Lily shook her head. "Have you forgotten how they treated us when we needed help? Have you forgotten how they threw us out as if we were dirts. And have you forgotten so soon how they avoided us like plagues? Lily hissed as she thought of their past. "They are all the same. Always full of themselves and they believe they are better than others. Nothing can change my view on them.

Meanwhile at the hospital Prince franklin couldn't stop thinking about his encounter with the hazel eyed girl, whose tongue was also hotter than fire.

"I wish I could see her again." He said to himself but a voice suddenly cut through his thoughts.

"A penny for your thoughts." Grandma Smith said as she sat up.

"Grandma! You're awake! Prince shouted as he rushed towards her.

"Of course, I am awake." Grandma Smith nodded. "Why wouldn't I? She cupped Prince's cheek and smiled. "I finally get to see you again, so I had to wake up. She pulled him closer for a hug. "How are you my dear boy? How have you been? It's been three long years, how have you faired?

"Grandma I am okay and alive." Prince said as he kissed her cheek.

"Why do you look so lean? Haven't you been eating?"

"Grandma I do eat but none of those food is as good as your lovely home made pudding." Prince explained teasingly.

"Then, that means you don't take enough rest."

"I did tried, but I was too busy making you proud that I forget to sleep sometimes."

"Oh my sweet little baby." Grandma Smith said with tears in her eyes.

Prince opened his arms proudly. "And as a result of that, Standing before you right now is the renowned CEO of Fran group of companies.

"Grandma, I have grown up to make you proud and never to be a victim of other people's plot anymore.

"Awwn, My baby has really grown big." Grandma sobbed.

"Grandma, please don't do this. I followed all of your teachings, you should be proud of me not crying."

"Silly, I am crying because I am proud of you."

"I love you grandma."

"I love you too my baby." Grandma Smith cried as she hugged Prince tightly.

"Stop it now grandma, or I will go back." Prince threatened and Grandma Smith immediately wiped her tears.

"I'm not crying anymore."

"Good," Prince kissed her cheek and was slowly rubbing her head.

"Okay, that's enough." Grandma Smith said, looking at him. "Now, care to tell me what you thinking about when I woke up?

"Um.. grandma that...I actually it's."
