They got to the school and Aurora sighted her sister standing with a boy who looks younger than her and smaller.

"Maya" she called the attention of her little sister who turned alongside the boy she was sitting with.

"Oh, that's your sister? She's so beautiful and the boy is my kid brother" Jenny said getting more happier.

Rora's sister knows her brother and they seemed to be friends too.

"Ooh..." Aurora drawled waiting for the kids to get to them.

"Big sister" Maya squealed hugging her sister tightly as she got to her, Aurora carried her up and spun her around further increasing the girl's happy giggles.

Jenny stares on, her eyes widening as she stares at her colleague. She never knew Aurora could be a playful type and she even smiled. Her smiles are so beautiful and she wonders why she acts all tough.

Aurora stopped spinning her sister and brought her down then bent to her level.

"How was school today? I can see you made a new friend" she asked and the girl frowned a bit before smiling widely.

They all called me big aunty and wouldn't play with me, they said am older than them and shouldn't be in the same class as them, it was only kelvin who came closer to me and played with me, he also shared his candy with me" Maya muttered and Aurora's countenance changed.

She knew her sister would surely face such in school because she had grown past being in that class. She's 8years old when her classmates are probably 5 but she's happy Maya didn't take it to heart as she kept smiling.

She turned to the boy whose name was Kelvin and ruffled his hair. "Thank you for being friends with Maya and sharing your candy with her, I'll get you a lot of candies tomorrow when we come to pick you both" Aurora said and the boy smiled widely going to Jenny.

"Don't mind them and do not listen to whatever they say to you, you are unique and I'm proud of you, no matter what they say to you, do not put it in mind" Aurora consoled and her sister nodded before holding her hands and they all walked home.

We'll take this way, our house is down there" Jenny said as she reached the junction to their house.

"Ooh, Bye then" Aurora muttered with a little smile. "Bye Kelvin" Maya yelled out with her tiny voice as she waved at Kelvin who waved back in return.

"Bye Rora be sure to come early tomorrow," Jenny said and Aurora replied with a short nod then started walking away with her sister.

They got home to meet their mother in her fruit shade together with Craig who was grinning from ear to ear when he saw her approaching.

"Do you have to show your incomplete teeth all the time Craig?" Aurora teased.

"What? My teeth are complete silly or have you forgotten I have the best sets of teeth and not even yours can compare" Craig bragged making Aurora roll her eyes.

"Good evening Mama" Aurora greeted her mother who was now carrying Maya.

"My dear how was your first day at work?" She asked with a big smile at the mention of work, she can't believe her daughter now has a workplace and even though it's not a company, they could manage the income.

"It was all good Mum" she replied. Except for that big Mandy who has started getting on her nerves on her first day" she mumbled incoherently Making Craig raise her brows.

"Are you perhaps talking to your wolf?" Craig asked getting closer with interest.

"Get away from me, I wasn't talking to her and Craig I do not know the reason you act like that when you mention wolf, do you think it's something cool that you should be excited about?" She glared staring at Craig.

Craig was the only one who knows about her being a werewolf, he had caught her yelling at Aliya countless times and when she could no longer give him excuses for her constant bickering with her wolf, she had to confess to him and he found it unbelievable at first but later got to believe after having to beg her to shift so he could see her wolf.

Ever since then, he had been begging her to allow him to see the cool and playful wolf again but Aurora always turn it down saying she doesn't want him having anything to do with the creature as she doesn't like it.

"Well you are the only one who doesn't find it cool, damn gurl you are a supernatural being, and am sure you have powers also, why not embrace who you really are, and maybe you will find happiness" Craig replied having on a serious expression.

"And you think being a werewolf makes me happy? You think I'm happy having to share my thoughts with a freaking wolf who speaks and argues with me?" She muttered.

"She isn't just a mere wolf found in the zoo Rora, she's your other half and I wish I was one too" her mother chirped making Aurora let out a cranky laugh.

"Why then didn't you become one when you Married father who was a werewolf?" Aurora snapped already getting angry.

"I wasn't supposed to become one Rora, your father just happened to have a human mate which was me and that wasn't supposed to turn me to one" her mother tried to explain but Aurora hissed and walked into the house with Craig whining beside her still complaining of how bad she treats her wolf.

"Can you just leave this topic of wolves and talk about another thing Craig? You are pissing the hell out of me now" Aurora yelled throwing her hands up in frustration.

"You just have to stop treating Aliya badly Rora, she's such a nice and happy wolf and I know you will love her if only you give her a chance" Craig insisted not ready to drop the topic.
