As soon as Rukaya entered the house, she excitedly went straight to our room and started unpacking the items she had bought. "Hey, little sis, look at all the things that guy got for me!" I chose to stay quiet, pretending not to hear her excitement. She insisted, "You should check out the new phone he gave me, it's a Galaxy!"
As she fiddled with the phone, I noticed some batteries and quickly inserted them into the new device. Then, I lay down on the bed while Auntie Ruky washed up and took a bath using the scented soap that had been gifted to her.
To my surprise, I realized that Auntie Ruky was putting on makeup in front of the mirror. I pretended to be asleep as she played with her phone, waiting for a call. Eventually, a call came in, and she answered with a smile.
On the other end of the call, a voice began to express love and admiration for Auntie Ruky. They shared sweet words, speaking as if they had known each other for years, and their conversation was filled with affection.
Later, when it was time to wake up for school, Auntie Ruky called me. I quickly got up and went to the bathroom.
"Hurry up, we're running late," I urged Auntie Ruky as I packed my bag and stood close to her.
A man nearby seemed to be observing our interaction with interest, but Auntie Ruky quickly pulled me away, avoiding any potential trouble. She guided me forward, and we continued on our way.
At school, I shared the news with Auntie Ruky, fearing it might affect me negatively. However, she encouraged me, assuring me that things would be okay.
After school, we returned home, and today, we had some guests at Alio's palace. We greeted Alio, who seemed a bit sleepy but still managed to exchange pleasantries with us.
As we left the palace, I heard Aunt Ruky ask if she could lend me some money. I wondered why she needed money at this moment, but before I could ask, she hurriedly excused herself and left my house, leaving me puzzled by her sudden departure.
