Harold was shaken. Tears welled up in his eyes when he saw the anger and disgust in his mother’s eyes directed towards him.
“Mommy, don’t hate me,” Harold’s voice trembled. “I’m sorry. It’s my fault. I will try not to be so clumsy anymore.”
He slowly approached Adina and held her hand. But Adina swung his hand away.
“I told you not to touch me!” Adina was agitated and restless. She raised her hand and knocked the chocolate strawberry cake to the ground.
Everyone in the dining room was stunned, especially her children.
Harold’s tears streamed down his cheek. Melody bit her bottom lip. She dared not cry out loud.
“All of you, go back to your rooms,” said Duke carefully. He placed a hand on Adina’s shoulder.
“Don’t touch me!” Adina pushed his hand away. “All of you, get out now!”
She cradled her head and charged outside. Her head was going to split. It hurt too much!
A voice rang in her mind. ‘Leave them! Get out of there now!’
She had no idea where she was heading. She rushed outside without a sense of direction. Her children were scared.
Duke’s face darkened. “Mr. Brown, what are you waiting for? Take the kids upstairs and make sure they are safe.”
“Noted!” Mr. Brown led the children upstairs quickly.
