' Today no matter what they say am not going to boarding school and that's my final answer and am not going to change .' said Joella. ' Can you go and check up on your sister and tell her her father is waiting ' said Isabella . ' Yes mum ' said  Ava.

Ava goes to their room and finds Joella seating on the bed with her mind so far not yet dressed, she looks at her for a moment then turns to her in a polite manner saying ' do you know dad is getting late for work and you are comfortable relaxing and staring at the space. Mum does not have money to take you to school if dad leaves you what are you going to do '. Joella turns to her and gives her and gives her a harsh look and says ' listen just the way you were told to call me tell them am not going to school and this time round am serious. '.

Ava silently leaves the room and closes the door behind her and goes where the parents were and looking down and says to them ' mum dad Joella has said she is not going to school and this time she is serious about it ' and she leaves the room. The mum with furious anger stands up and goes to Joella's room bungs the door and gets in. ' Mum ' said Joella in big surprise. The  mum started speaking in loud voice ' I don't want to hear any excuse neither complains or anything , you are going to school so get yourself together to leave' Joella replies ' mum ' before she could finish what she was talking the mother start to talk ' I don't want to hear any more mum mum and when talking you should be dressing okay ' .

Joella also stands up from the bed she was seating and shouts back at her mother with anger at the same time afraid  ' mum , I have had enough of all this, am the one studying and I know the very best environment I want to be in . You can't keep forcing me going to boarding school. I told you from the start this time am very serious am not going and I mean it. ' With anger her mother slaps her and says ' I didn't raise you to talk back at me or raise your voice at me. Am done here don't make your father wait ' and she leaves the room. Joella went to bed and covers herself with the blanket and starts to cry.
