Chapter 53 STAND BY ME 2.

Miss Lucy lowered her eyebrows at who gave her a warm hug, and it happens to be Brian, she smiled naughtily as he suddenly refrained from the hug and glared at her.
“You spilled my ice-cream!” She scolded and he scoffed at her.
“I almost lost you…” He paused and looked away, annoyed with himself for saying those words while Mrs Lucy's gazed seems surprised.
“I have a long life span okay… Just worry about my…”
“Ice-cream Lucy? Aren't you scared someone is out there watching you?”
“Nope… I have you…” She snapped, turning towards the Ice-cream seller who found miss Lucy awkward when he husband or boyfriend wants to die with grief and worries.
“Two please…guess he needs to steam out the vapor from his chest” Mrs Lucy ordered and Brian smirked at her.
“Do you realize what would have happened today? How did you ever survive…”
“Why should you care?” She cuts in, sadly.
“Miss Lucy had always been by herself…stop giving hope that you seemed worried!” She barked, handing over an ice-cream to Brian who refused.
“That's your biggest challenge…you never believe anyone! Just yourself and cover up your pains even though it kills you!” He sneered, walking away from her and Mrs Lucy bore sadness in her eyes. She saw two kids staring at the Ice-cream in her hand, and Miss Lucy handed them what she has while running after Brian. He wasn't listening to her calling out to him. Finally, she got to his car and he was about to drive away, but she stood in front of the bonnet just like the first day he took her to the office, and she was panting heavily. In a hast, she ran to the front wing and got into the car.
“You can't abandon your wife who survived from an accident” she scolded requesting for water, and he gave her from behind with a stern look.
“I'm fine…okay see…” She beckoned, but he didn't respond, rather he began to drive towards the station.
"Excuse me, where are we going the wrong direction?”
“You're the victim and your statement is needed to carry out an investigation” he snapped
“Speak to Julie, the poor child must have cried a river by now” he furthered, and she fumed.
“She has to be brave…what if I die someday?” Brian sniggers and then glanced at her.
“Where you that brave at her age?” He asked and she kept silence. They arrived at the station but before then, miss Lucy spoke with Julie on the phone that she was perfectly fine. She gave her statement on how the fire started. Miss Lucy who was about to drive away was called to get a good by one of the shopkeeper and when she returned, she saw a light beaming from beneath her tire, quickly without knowing what next to suspected it was a bomb and beckoned on everyone to leave the grocery store at once before it explodes which they did, even though some had doubt, they just run along and in a minute, the explosion took place. Miss Lucy haven seen that the police had come to observe the area, paced towards an ice-cream shop to ease her tension with something cold, she was avoiding questions, and it happens that Brian had ruined her plans by bringing her here. Miss Lucy was asked if she suspects anyone, but Brian suggested Rodger.
“I have many foes” she mused at him and he rustled at her statement.
“That's because you create one” Brian replied, and the investigator stared at them. They kept opposing each other ever since they got here and most time, they agreed together. Not too long, they finished the interrogative section and headed home straight.
“Mom!” Julie called, running to hug her mother and miss Lucy lifted her up in excitement.
“How much did you cry?” She mocked and Julie scoffed as miss Lucy brought her down.
“I didn't cry… I'm brave” she replied. Brian shook his head several at the two of them and Julie hugged him besides, her hero brought miss Lucy back.
“I'm so hungry…” Miss Lucy wailed storming into the house.
“Guess I know where you learned that phrase from” Brian noted and Julie giggled, running after her mother.
“I've got no much time, Lucy…” He growled silently as he walked into the room. He was tired and intended to sleep, but something kept bumping into his rest. Music! Brian covered his ears with his pillows and then groaned loudly while jumping up from the bed after realizing that the noise wasn't going to reduce. He rushed downstairs and figured out that the sitting room was a mess because everyone was celebrating but what exactly? Brian walked up towards the audio speaker and switched it off. He saw miss Lucy almost half drunk while Julie was pestering her to sing a karaoke songs while the two servants were the judges who were eating and drinking to their satisfaction.
“What's the disturbance all about!” He yelled and miss Lucy fell to the ground laughing.
“I used to be the harsh one, seems Brian and I switched roles” she teased laughing hard.
“Julie! It's late at night, and you've got classes by noon…run along to your room” he scolded and Julie did as instructed. The two servants didn't wait for Brian to utter a word before they ran away from his sight, leaving miss Lucy alone. He attempted to walk away besides, she could take herself to the room; however, he paced towards her and carried her in his arms, and she stretched her arms as though to fly.
“Ha. I'm flying, reaching for the sun…” She rapped and then hiccuped on him.
“Where you always the party time? You were so mean…” His eyes went to one of her finger that she placed on his lips and muttering the word”shush”
“That was to hide my fears that I was in authority, but it seems I'm left with nothing…so…why…not… celebrate…” She exclaimed, almost falling off his arms, but he held her tightly and walked through the stairs.
