You also went to work.Probably with me disguising myself like some sort of thief on run.I can't begin to think about what happened in the office today. First people looking at me weirdly of course who wouldn't by the way I covered my face completely my eyes only visible. And second, the look I received from the staff inside the office.

A small smile appears on his lips."Do I look like I'm joking right now, it's the only option for you guys." He said as if it's something small."Papa, this is not something to joke about, it's about my reputation I tried to maintain all these years."

Should I just tell her the truth?After contemplating for a while an idea popped up in my head.*Okay let's do thisI spot Aunt sitting on the two sitter couch knitting.
