My Doomsday Farming Truck - Chapter 38

When Arther reached his home he found his family members already waiting for him at the door. His father was standing at the door with his ready-to-blast at anytime expression, his face was already red with anger. His mother was standing along with his father with a worried expression. Behind them stood Nanny with her head bowed down, and his sister was sitting on a chair on the lawn ready to enjoy the drama that was soon going to happen here.

********************

Back to few hours, when Arther left the house. Nanny returned to the living room. She was feeling very nervous as if what Arther has told her is true she can know about her parent’s conditions. And if everything goes as Arther has planned she can even meet her parents soon. While she was lost in her thoughts, Jessy was observing Nanny and she noticed the faint changes in Nanny’s expression. When Arther acted of not feeling well at that time itself she felt something was not right. And now Nanny’s behavior has made her doubts clear. She wanted to know what was going on between these two guys..

So she stealthily left from there without anyone knowing and went to Arther’s room. She tried to open the door but it was locked from inside which made her feel more suspicious as according to Arther’s conditions he will not lock the door. She tried to listen for anything from the room but there was nothing. After not finding anything she left, anyways she had many ways to make Arther speak once he gets well or his acting is over. She had a devilish smile on her face as she went down.

Till she returned to her place no one noticed her actions, not even Nanny. Slowly time went by. When it was 8:00 it was time for dinner, since Arther was not feeling well his mother Abella decided to take the food to his room and also check on his condition. She wanted to call the doctor but at this time it was not possible to find a doctor in the village. And going to the city was not possible.

When she was about to take the food up, “Aunty, umm, is this for brother Arther?”

“Yes, he is not feeling well so I am taking this for him you wait at the dining table I will come in a minute.”, Abella smiled.

“I can’t let her go to brother Arther’s room or else she will know everything.”, she needed to think about a way to stop her from going up.

“Aunty wait, how about I take the food to brother Arther, till then you can serve for everyone.”, without waiting for Abella to speak Nanny took the plate and ran upstairs. Abella was first surprised to see her acting like this but then didn’t think about it much and went down.

After seeing Abela leave Nanny heaved a sigh of relief as she took the plates and went to Arther’s room, first she knocked on the door and called for Arther then hid the food plate somewhere.

When she was done hiding the food and was gonna leave she was caught by Jessy doing all this. After some threats from Jessy, Nanny told her the truth about Arther not being in his room. Jessy went to the backyard to check on his window and there she found the rope from where Arther went out and she told everything to her parents. She didn’t show it to anyone but she was the angriest and worried about Arther. But she didn’t tell their parents about Nanny knowing about this.

********************

Seeing this Arther was already sweating profusely and he wanted to escape from there as soon as possible, he can return when the atmosphere calms down. He slowly turned around and was about to escape when he heard a voice which sounded like a devil.

“Hey, Arther don’t you think you should stop hiding and come out now.”, it was none other than his sister she must have already seen him coming.

As soon as she spoke his parents also noticed him and his mother was the first to come to him, she pulled him into the house with his ears. Along the way, he had no other choice than to remain silent as if he tried to make any scene outside the house the villagers will soon gather to see the drama. And then he might lose all his chance to escape from beatings.

After everyone entered the house the doors were closed and the surrounding was again left with silence. But the same was not true inside, Arther was pulled by his mother into the living room, and his father was ready to attack at any time. His sister was happily standing in a corner watching the show. Nanny was already having tears welling up in her eyes while she looked at Arther with apologizing eyes.

“You better have a valid reason ready to explain everything or else you know what is gonna happen with you.”, his father was the first to break the silence as he spoke while pointing at Arther’s buttocks.

Arther knew very well what his father was pointing about. And he was not interested in having red roses on his butt. When he was about to explain everything to them, Nanny spoke.

“Uncle Aunty, Arther went there on my request. He went there to get some news about my parents.”, she had her head bowed even lower to avoid looking at them while speaking. Seeing this Arther felt a bit touched but of a headache as this will make it difficult for him to explain everything to them.

“You little girl, you don’t need to try protecting him we know him very well. He is lazy enough not to do his work so doing something for others is not a question at all.”, the devil standing in the corner spoke again as she grinned at Arther while hugging Nanny as she whispered something into her ears. Looking at her she seemed determined to see getting Arther beaten.

After hearing what Jessy whispered Nanny looked at Arther while she bit her lower lips. Jessy told her only one line, “Enjoy the scene”. She knew Jessy wanted her to keep quiet. But to her surprise, Arther also signed her to keep quiet.
