Secrets and suprisesMONA'S POVI had to sneak in quietly to alert no noise in the peaceful home because I think everyone including my mom would have gone to bed by now. I rushed to go inside my room to have some rest because of the stressful and hard day I have been getting since today. I really need some time to rest my head. As I tried entering inside my room a voice called out my name which sounded like my dad's voice. “Mona, where are you coming from? I looked to the direction the voice called me beside me, and truly it was my dad. “Where are you coming from? He asked again but I was short of words.
