Married to my nemesis-Chapter 75: Responsibility

"Are you sure she’ll be willing to meet with me, she’s someone who isn’t familiar with me so —"

"Trust me Leah is interested in meeting with you, she probably teases me a lot, this much," he stated gesturing with his finger using his thumb and second finger as a pinch.

Phoebe couldn’t help but chuckle.

"Are you about that?"

"Really? That girl may look like she’s reliable to slang a person so badly but she’s a sweetheart, probably with the energy gotten from her uncle in verging those that annoy her."

"Really?" Phoebe questioned with a chuckle.

"Oh my, I didn’t know that she’s such a sweetheart," Phoebe said with a giggle.

Zayn opened the door for Phoebe as she walked into the room with Zayn following.

The mother and daughter were discussing with laughter held when they were interrupted but the sound of the door opening.

When Leah turned to see who had entered the room, Leah’s eyes met with Phoebe noticing she was the same woman.

After all, she was the girl who had to stay beside the woman as her uncle pretended to be flirting with another woman so she was looking a bit through the window as she saw Phoebe.

But with the gaze of Uncle Zayn, she had an excited face on her expression.

"Uncle Zayn!!" She said out of excitement as Zayn walked towards her and then he hugged her kissing her on the forehead.

"How is my baby girl doing?" Zayn questioned as he took a look at her face.

"Uncle Zayn I’m doing fine."

"Oh my, your face is glowing it doesn’t look like anything had happened to you, you’re blooming more than your mum can. See this happy face of yours, I wonder why your mother does not have that, Brooklyn, I told you that she got this attitude from her uncle, the shiniest of them all."

The latters in the room couldn’t help but laugh.

"So how is your health? Are you sure you don’t want anything along with you in the room, this room looks so boring to have Leah alone in this room. "

" What about ice cream? "

" Really? "

She nodded.

" You should also get me some chips. "

" Oh my, this isn’t the first time I’m going to not do without giving you something, you know the only thing, I just wished your mum wasn’t here to catch us. Our secret is out right at her front."

Leah looked at her mother with a sharp look and a pouty lip.

" You’re right uncle. "

" But she’s not going to scold us, as long as she sees you bored here, you’re going to have more than you want. "

" I know uncle. She’s not going to do a thing to me."

Zayn couldn’t help but feel the heat of her words towards her mother.

" It seems you both have begun conspiring against me. "

" Your mother is stating her words like this is the first time we’re going to be saying words against her. "

" What about the ice cream? "

" it will soon be ordered, just wait for a few minutes and you’ll see, that it will be presented right in front of the royal majesty. "

Phoebe couldn’t help but giggle at their ways, standing right in front she couldn’t help but feel like these two were surely going to be naughty ones.

Because of her reaction, it once again attracted Leah’s view to Phoebe.

" Hi, " Phoebe stated waving a hand at her as Leah smiled back.

" You must be that woman, "she turned to Zayn knowing she was going to use her type of perspective to tease her uncle.

"Who uncle—" she saw Zayn place a pleading face but she was ready to tease him more.

She could say it was revenge for trying to take her ice cream.

" Uncle always speaks about it at home right? "

" Oh really? " she had an arched eyebrow.

" What kind of thing is your young man uncle speaking about? "

" Trust me he says a lot of things, very very very big words about you. He has a lot of words to say you know that? "

" So what kind of words that large he says about me? "

"Uncle Zayn can say the words, right? After all, he’s the one who says the very interesting words. "

" I see, so Uncle Zayn, do you mind telling me the words you’ve said about me? " she questioned as she turned to Zayn for an answer.

Zayn couldn’t believe how Leah conspired against him.

He looked at Leah with an expression asking her why she decided to say those words.

The innocent uncle like him was only trying to create a bond between his niece and his girlfriend but his niece whom he thought was a sweetheart had other plans for him.

" Oh yeah, besides, why are we talking about these things, we have other things to do in this place and it purposely doesn’t mean that we have to talk about what I’ve been saying, after all, what do you want to get from those words, they’re just words said out of interest. "

" Classic Uncle, " Zayn turned to Leah who had her disappointed view on him, he couldn’t use the method to confess his feelings.

And here he was pretending like those words that he’s said weren’t something that he saw was sincere to his heart.

"So what’s your name, I want to know your name," Phoebe questioned as Leah gave a sharp look looking like she was scanning her inwardly to see if she was going to give her her name.

Remember, she also had a favorite Ice cream just like her.

She had different things she wanted to say but her view on her was clear.

Phoebe couldn’t believe she would have to face the day she was going to be unphysically interrogated by a kid.

"Okay, my name is Leah, what about yours?" Leah said as she finally gave in.

"Oh my, I also have a friend who goes by the name Leah."

Leah was stunned, how many characteristics was this woman going to have just like her?

She felt she was being set up so they could become friends.

" Uncle Zayn, I feel there is a mole somewhere. "

" Where are you talking about? " Zayn questioned as his eyes searched the room just to see one.

Leah couldn’t believe her uncle’s stupidity.

" Uncle Zayn I was talking about, why she has the things I have. How does she have the same ice cream as I do, and now, she has a friend who has the same name just like me? "

" Wait a minute, you like the same ice cream flavor as I do?" Phoebe questioned with a stunned expression.

" Oh my, I heard that people with matching things are meant to be soulmates, " Phoebe said in a teasing tone.

Oh really?

Zayn turned to look at her, just because they both did not have matching things, she was going to ditch him and then take his niece.

Zayn couldn’t believe it.

He was stunned.

" I thought—"

" Wait up uncle, " Both Phoebe and Leah chorused to stop Zayn who wanted to mend their conversation.

" I heard matching people always have the same idea, like Uncle Zayn, he doesn’t have any fashion sense, I’m the one who always encourages him to try clothing colors other than cool dark colors. "

" Yeah, you can say the same," Phoebe responded.

Zayn couldn’t believe that the both of them were now gossiping about him.

Seriously now? He was going to be the gossip topic?

Meanwhile, Brooklyn couldn’t help but feel excited, her daughter was happy and she was likewise happy about that.

Just as she watched Phoebe and Leah discuss, she received a phone call.

Checking her phone to see who was the caller, her consciousness and system were a little bit shaken.

"I’ll go out, I have a call to answer," Brooklyn informed before moving away from the room.

As her body stuttered feeling a bit shaken she walked away signaling Zayn about her attitude.

Seeing the way she was behaving he watched her move outside waiting a few seconds before he moved outside to eavesdrop on her conversation.

He pretended to also have a call as he excused himself leaving the two inside, Phoebe used her opportunity to talk with Leah more comfortably.

Sitting on her bed, she had a lot of discussion to speak with her.

When Zayn went outside, Brooklyn had a worried face listening to the caller.

"It wasn’t my fault I promise, I didn’t think that she was going to be involved in a car accident, " Brooklyn stuttered as she tried to speak but the caller condemned her to keep her mouth shut hearing the angry words from who was talking.

Zayn watched how his sister felt disheartened.

Walking towards her he surprisingly took the phone and then talked with the caller.

" Seriously? Now you’re going to insult her for what she didn’t know about? How about you know who caused the accident? Maybe if you were responsible enough to meet with your daughter then this wouldn’t have happened in the first place. The next time you threaten her then you’ll have it from me, and this is not a threat, is a warning. You know what, maybe you can take that as your first step by taking responsibility for your daughter, I don’t want you accusing my sister, and blaming her for the issue because she was trying her best to protect Leah but what have you been doing? When you have better things to say then you can come up and meet with your daughter in the right sense of mind," he stated and then he ended the call leaving Brooklyn stunned.
