He still went ahead to see her off to Audrey\'s room despite that she was against this.

"Take care. I will see you in a few hours," He said and pecked her lips.

"Sure," she mumbled. After taking a long glance at him she closed the door.

Joanna, who was worried about Audrey returned and was surprised to see that Audrey didn\'t come back at all.

She had wanted to call to confirm what happened but she decided not to when she noticed that it was still too early.

Audrey often played games until late into the night and as such, she normally slept in. She feared she would ruin her opportunity to get enough sleep if she called her.

Since it was a Saturday Joanna didn\'t have to worry about sending Anthony off to the Academy.

Despite that she felt sleepy, Joanna forced herself to wake up when it was time for her to do so.

First of all, she chose her outfit for the day. she didn\'t forget to do the same for Anthony.

After she was done with that, she went into the kitchen and tried to prepare a light breakfast with the ingredients available for use.

When she was done she went in and woke Anthony up. Joanna oversaw that Anthony freshened and changed into the fresh set of outfits she prepared for him.

Amos arrived at their doorstep the instant they sat down in the dining and got ready to eat their breakfast.

"Good morning," She greeted him with a charming smile on her face. She ushered him into the room and followed him closely.

"Whoa... you have gotten your little man dressed up and looking dashing so early. I guess this is one of the splendid benefits of having a big sister," Amos joked when he saw the little boy sitting on the white chair.

"Having an elder brother is not bad too but they can\'t be compared to big sisters. Big Sis is the best in the entire world," Anthony complimented. He stuck out his thumb towards where Joanna stood.

"I am happy you think so," Joanna grinned. She walked to the dining she had set up and joined Anthony there.

As they ate Amos\' gaze was glued on Joanna\'s face as usual. The way he kept gazing at her did not escape Anthony\'s notice.

"Brother Amos, why do you like looking at my sister whenever she eats?" Anthony asked.

"Little rice ball, haven\'t I told you not to talk at the dining...,"

"I just love gazing at her face. It doesn\'t matter whether or not she is eating," He replied despite Joanna trying to help him out.

"Mum sometimes says the same thing. I wonder why adults are so weird," He muttered. He lowered his head and continued with what he was doing.

"You don\'t have to stress your head just to understand the adults\' ways, you are too young for that. But I promise in a few years you will understand this same feeling I have," Amos replied with his hoarse voice.

He didn\'t take his gaze off her despite her warning.

When he noticed she was almost done eating, he struck up a conversation with her.

"So where are we going today?" He inquired. "Are we spending our weekend at the beach or...,"

"If you want to go to the beach you and Little rice ball can do that but as for me, I will be leaving for the cafe in a few minutes...,"

"What!" Amos shouted. He jumped up. He was not able to hide his disappointment.

"You should have known that my sick leave ends today so why are you so dumbfounded as if you are not aware of this?" She narrowed her eyes as she waited for his reply.

"I know that but I thought you would not resume work today...,"

"You might be Mrs Parker\'s benefactor but I need to go and do my quota of work if I want to get paid...,"

"I can also pay you for spending the day at home if earning money is what you are worried about," He mumbled.

His word made Joanna return the plate she lifted back to the table. She gazed at the guy whose frown was apparent.

"Would you pay me for staying at home?" She chuckled and stood up from the chair. "And how much will you pay me for that huh?"

Amos smiled and sat down on his chair. "Any amount that you want. I can also give you a bonus...,"

"Do you know how hilarious your words sound?" She asked. "I am holding back myself from laughing because I know despite how funny your words are that you are serious about it".

His smile gradually faded. He stood up and approached her. "Does that mean you won\'t think about my offer?" He demanded. "I have enough to pay you more than she does...,"

"Stop being naughty or else I won\'t know what to do if Little rice ball does something similar," Joanna scolded him.

"Brother Amos, if you want to make Big Sis do what you want that is not how you should...,"

"Anthony!" Joanna shouted. She threw him a cautionary gaze and he understood what to do by merely looking at her.

Joanna continued to pack the used dishes after she made sure Anthony uttered no more words.

As she moved to the kitchen Amos followed her also.

In the kitchen, he stood at a spot and watched her wash the dishes.

"Won\'t you consider staying behind if not for your little man but for my sake?" He asked. His sad tone made Joanna turn and look at him.

She almost fell into his trap when she saw his fallen expression had she not hold herself back.

"Mrs Parker was kind enough to give me a few days off when she learned that I was sick. I can\'t abuse her kindness no matter what relationship you share with her. I hope you understand," Joanna said with a tone of finality.
