A/n: This chapter was made in the span of several days so please do forgive any inconstancies I missed in the proof reading phase. There's angst and fluff in the chapter. Also this is a super long chapter so hopefully this fill ya up while I continue to study.

(POV y/n)
"Oh I wouldn't miss this for the world" She had a smug look on her face.

I looked down to see she was holding two pizza boxes. She brought them to the table and I re-locked the knife cabinet.

"What are you playing at Car-" I got cut off by an ear peircing scream.

"Murder! Murder!" Linda shrieked.
-----------------------------------------------------

I looked over at Linda who was pointing and screaming at the snack counter. Quickly, I handed Carley the knife I was holding as I was not going to set it down at the table where kids could reach. I turned to Linda, trying to calm her down which didn't do much. 

"My son! You knew he is allergic!" Linda kept yelling.

"Ma'am-Linda please!" I tried reasoning with her.

"You tried to murder my son!" She accused, "you placed these peanuts here!"

I took a step back as she got in my face while pointing at the snack table. I looked closer and saw one bag of peanuts that blended in with the chips and Fizzyfaz.

'Why is there just one?'

"Oh my god Y/n! Did you..." Carley let out a dramatic gasp, "try to intentionally harm a child?" Carley said, sarcasm laced her voice. I knew she was enjoying ever second of this.

I turned to face Carley.
"N-no I didn't! I must've missed it while placing the snacks down-" I panicked, saying whatever came to mind.

"So you weren't doing your job?" Carley added.

"No!" I denied.

"This could have seriously harmed if not killed my child! You're lucky it didn't go anywhere near Daniel" Linda huffed.

"Y/n must have placed it there. I was asked to personally check the box and I didn't see it in there" Carley said.

Then the dots started aligning.
'Personally asked? Wait- the talk we had in the pantry... The box being opened... I didn't check- ℂ𝕒𝕣𝕝𝕖𝕪'

"You set me up!" I pointed to Carley.

"Me?" Carley smirked, "you have no proof! Besides, why would I try to hurt my sweet little brother"

"Little brother?!" I said in surprise.

"What? You didn't know? Daniel is my brother, making Linda my mother" Carley guffawed.
(A/n: Another word for a laugh. I felt fancy since I'm writing a bunch of essays)

'I don't know how... But she placed the bag in there. I must've missed it in my half-asleep state'
I gritted my teeth, giving Carley a death glare.

"I'll get you fired! Hell, I'll even sue you!" I could hear Linda yell at me from behind.

I took the peanut bag and threw it out, I didn't know what else to do.
"There! I made a mistake, I'm sorry. This way no one can touch it and open it"  I let out an exasperated tone.
At this point Linda had made a scene and every parent was watching me, some were even recording. I felt all eyes on me and it made my skin crawl.

"You know Y/n, I think you've done enough. Why don't you wait outside so you don't cause any more trouble. I'll take it from here" Carley patted my shoulder, to which I pulled away.
