Cut the crap!

CHAPTER FORTY ONE
CHRIS
I waited for the inspectors attention to get overly fixed in the call, I waited for him to get carried away.
"Sir I need water", I said immediately I heard my mom's voice from the other end, although I was unable to interpret or understand what she was saying. The inspector was smiling like a fool, it was as if he had something going on with my mom but I didn't want to think about that right now.
He stood up foolishly and walked into his inner office, I heard the sound of the freezer and took to my heels immediately. I ran out of the station without looking back.
I brought out my phone immediately I was far enough and out of sight and put it on airplane mode. I knew for a fact my mom would end the case, yet I wasn't ready for her sermon, she would definite ask that I'd be given the phone.
I wasn't ready for her troubles, I wasn't in the mood either, my mom and the inspector should just settle themselves like they always do whenever I got into trouble.
I took a cab, and headed straight home, the day was hectic enough and I needed to rest, I needed to lay my head, I needed nanny Suzy to cuddle me to sleep.
She was the only one who understood me, she was the only one who would share in my pain without judging me.
I got home and walked straight to nanny Suzy's room.
"What happened my son? What has happened to you?" She asked surprisingly on sighting me...
"Nanny Suzy", I called weakly as I fell into her arms.
AVRIL
"What was the meaning of that mess?" My mom barked as she walked all over the dining, it was the first time I'm seeing her so mad.
I had this innocent look on my face, mom and dad had rushed to the hospital immediately they were called upon, they had been told to wait for us to regain consciousness so they could get information from us as no one knew what had happened to us.
After three days in the hospital Jumai and I were discharged from the hospital, I didn't get the chance to talk to her after we were discharged from the hospital.
I had held Jumai's hand immediately we came out of the hospital so I would talk to her briefly but she took her hands away from mine immediately and walked ahead of me without looking back.
My gaze was fixed on her throughout the drive home, even until now, as we sat at the dining reviewing scold from both mother and father.
"Why is no one saying anything? Who sent all the workers away?" Mom kept barking, yet neither I nor Jumai was ready to give any reply.
I was certain the house workers had, had their own share of the tension I and Jumai where in.
I would look at mother and father, then return my gaze to Jumai who would look away almost immediately.
"You think all this is a joke right? Since no one is ready to speak, let's all get ready to sleep here", mom said.
Dad hadn't said a word, he only paced around the dining room with his hands behind his back. He walked over to me, he leaned forward focusing all his attention in my eyes...
"Are you ready to speak now? What was the fuss all about? Or your boyfriend Chris had a hand in all of it?" Dad asked and Jumai spoke up for the first time yet she didn't give any meaning or a reasonable explanation that would get us out of the trouble we were in.
"It has nothing to do with Chris", she said weakly scratching her head and I looked over at her trying to read her facial expression yet her face was blunt, and I couldn't read anything.
"Then what is about? Who does it have anything to do with? Were you attacked by a werewolf?" Dad asked and my heart sank into my stomach, I stared at Jumai with a racing heart, my heart beat doubled for fear that I may get exposed.
"Yes. Indeed we were attacked by a werewolf", Jumai said calmly, and I quickly wiped the streams of sweat that has started pouring down my face freely.
"Avril?" Mom called out staring at me suspiciously and I turned to her with my hands and legs shaking like the leaves on a mango tree.
"What is going on? How did a werewolf get into the house?" She asked staring at me sternly and I wondered why.
"I... I.. How would I know?" I asked and she shook her head twice before clicking her tongue.
"Because you were at home, well except you were in some other place", she said and my head swelled.
"Mom, you don't have to be too harsh over little issue, let's just bury it. I thought I told you already it isn't worth the stress?" We heard Ariel's voice as he climbed down the stairs.
We all turned around in amazement fixing our eyes on him as he walked up to us.
"Mom, dad. I thought we have been through this? Why not just drop this fucking issue? Let's drop it for god's sake, please?" Ariel pleaded further.
Ariel has his way with words and mom always gave in with his demands, just like dad gave into I and Jumai's demand.
Dad would drop the case if mom wasn't involved, if Ariel succeeded in convincing mom, dad would have no choice, he wouldn't say no to mom either.
My heart began to race, I knew the issue wasn't an easy one, it wasn't something they would just let go of, especially since it involved the werewolf, yet I still hoped and prayed for a miracle.
Ariel walked over to mom, he held her hands in is and squeezed it lightly. "Please?" Ariel pleaded further wearing a pity look and mom stared at him as if she was going to change her mind.
"Please?" Ariel continued pleading until mom gave in.
"Fine, but..."
"No buts mom, dad, please let's just get over all this, its in the past now", Ariel urged and mom smiled like she had lost.
I felt my heart leap for joy, Ariel just saved my fucking ass and I knew I owe him one....
"Can I go in now?" Jumai stood up adjusting her dress and mom nodded with a smile.
Dad stroke her a glance and she winked at him, then she gave him a cute seductive smile, it was her way of bribing him whenever she wanted him to give in to her shits.
I stood up and ran after Jumai as she walked up to her room.
"Jumai, Jumai, Jumai", I called softly as I ran after her through the steps... She pretended not to hear me and kept moving, yet I wasn't ready to back down I kept calling her as I followed after her.
She kept walking until she got to the front of her room, I was close enough and my voice became louder. I increased my voice on purpose, I wanted to be sure Jumia could hear me, I knew she could, but still I wanted to be more careful.
"Jumai please.... Don't be mad at me", I said slowly and she stopped abruptly turning to me with a wicked glance.
I lost balance immediately her eyes met with mine, I tried to hold myself together and talk things over with her.
"Jumai", I called again slowly and she turned around to leave but I stopped her holding her arm, the scary look she gave to me afterwards was a bit frightening.
