My Guardian Angel

Aubrey’s pov

I first went to andrew’s room.. that’s the first i do in the morning , making sure his room and everything that belongs to him is clean and organized..am always happy doing such things for him..

Why?

Because he works all day to provide for me ... i know he works so hard everyday to make ends meet for me.. and i on the other hand can’t do anything.. I sometimes feel like am a burden to him and i hate it so the least i can do is making everything clean and comfy for him.

I always wanted to work so i can help him but he always refused .. he doesn’t even let me step out of the house let alone let me work.. i gave up on that idea long time ago

I finally finished his room.. as i look at it am satisfied.. i went on and continued doing my chores which includes cleaning the house , cooking, and many other things

Am trying to finish quickly so i can work on the scarf am sewing for him.. it’s so cold outside it’ll keep him warm

After few hours I finished my work.. i made my self a hot cup if tea and sat on the couch that was placed beside the window.. i can see the white ground from there and the chilling air that’s coming from the slightly opened window refreshes my soul.. At least inhaling it makes me feel like am outside.

I sat and put the cup near me and start working on the scarf.

Andrew always took care of me.. since i was a kid he always protected me even from my parents.. whenever they got mad at me or scolded me he’d stand in front of me and shouts at them for making me cry.. he’d always end up getting grounded but that didn’t stop him not even for once

I remember one day i was playing with the kids in the neighborhood.. when i took out my toys they start laughing at me because they were obviously used and dirty.. my parents were poor that’s the only thing they could afford but me and andrew never complained.

That day i ran back home crying.. when andrew saw me he lost his mind to the point that he gathered all the toys that the kids owned and burned them in front of them.. i can still remember how much they cried that day and then he said “ that’s what you get for making my little angel cry”.. since then they never dared to make fun of me.

As i was working on the scarf i start dozing off on the couch.. but a loud knock on the door woke me up..

i walked slowly to the door.. I didn’t open the door since andrew told me not to..

“Is there anyone inside?” A girly voice came from outside

“Please me and my brother got lost in the forest and he’s injured” she added

I can tell from her tone.. she seems scared and worried.. I didn’t know what to do will andrew be mad if opened the door?

“Please if there’s someone inside help us”

I couldn’t help but open the door.. i know how it feels to see your brother hurting.. and if ibwas in her shoes i’d beg anyone to help me.

When I opened the door i saw the girl.. she was around my age .. her brother was few years younger than me.. his leg was bleeding and she was supporting him to stand

“Please come in” i said gently

“Sister it hurts” the little boy was crying

“ don’t worry brother it’ll be fine” she said that and kissed his forehead.

“Am sorry for bothering you but we got lost and we saw your house “

“It’s fine please come in i will treat his wound” i said

I hope andrew won’t get mad at me .. i will explain to him later.. he should understand the situation right?
