View MoreThe gang arrived at the lake house in the afternoon. It was sunny and a little windy but looked beautiful all the same."I'm so tired and hungry." Ella said as soon as they got into the house."Me too. Do we have cracker?" Tara asked."Hormones driving you crazy already?" Kat joked."Don't act innocent Kat, I saw you throwing up this morning.""Shhhh!" Kat shushed Ella.The guys were stuck dragging medium suitcases."What did you all put in these things, we will only be here for three days!" August shouted."Stop whining and carry it man!" Drew said."Everyone knows their rooms right?""Yeah sure! In this big place I already forgot." Layla said."Don't be so dramatic."After everyone had settled in and rested the went to the foyer to watch the sunset. The orange gl
Drew had woken up really early the day after Robyn's wedding. It had taken place at their grandfather's house and him, Ella, August, Kat, Layla and Lionel had stayed back because Ella had slept off. He decided to pick up the trash and was later joined by August and Lionel.The tables had already been moved luckily and it was not so bad."So what's the story between our sister and our cousin?" August suddenly said."RT and Tristan?""Obviously, which other sister dobwe have?""If you're going to be a wise ass I wont tell you." Drew threatened."Just tell us, it was clear some something had gone down between them.""Why do you say that?""Tristan had this look when he looked at her, like she was something he badly wanted but knows couldn't have." Lionel said."Yeah. Fool's gold." August
The many people going in and out of the room made Robyn dizzy. She was already nervous and the people just made it worse. She started thinking of how things would go. She prayed hard that it would all end well. But what of someone decides to hurt her or Beau? Or even any of the family and friends. They had invited close friends and families only but still, what if?She glanced to her right at Tara whose make up was being done. She looked excited and Robyn wondered if it was only from the wedding or something else. Her hands had started sweating."Ells, can you please call Ma." She whispered to her best friend."Sure thing." Ella said standing up. "Hey are you finished? Good, all of you out! Leave the brides alone.""Thanks Layla. Oh can you call my mother too please." Tara said.After a few minutes, Viv and Beatrice walked in with Leah and Mrs Hughes. They rushed in.
The new tables and chairs had been arranged beautifully. The place looked so extravagant with the new curtains and lighting all over it. Even the romantic VIP tables were separated from the rest. They were private and intimate. Additional staff had been hired to cater for a lot of people as the place had been made bigger with new classic uniforms. The kitchen was packed with new equipment and extra fire extinguishing measures.Chef Jacob and Lefa were so excited that they looked like children about to go on a joy ride or going to the ice cream parlor. Lefa was wearing a suit today which was uncanny. He did not like dressing up at all but for this day he looked like a movie star.Robyn saw Michael bring in a carton of olive oil bottles into the kitchen. He looked at her ashamed. She was sure he regretted what he did the time in the hospital and ransom thing. She had asked the police not to charge him and that his father not be told anything abo
Colin shifted in the front passenger seat where he sat in Beau's car. He was glad that Beau was driving because he was as nervous as a child on their firs day of school. He stretched his hand and grabbed the bottled water at the cupholder. He drank a little and then tapped his hand in quick movements at the the dashboard."Col, stop worrying, it will be fine." Beau said."Easy for you to say.""You're right, I don't know a thing but no matter what they test says, you're still my brother." Beau said sincerely."Thanks brother. When did Robyn and Mom say they will get there?""Maybe father than us. The traffic from Mom's place is better than our side.""Yeah you're right. I hope that douche does not start with RT or mom.""You're keen on calling her that huh?""What? It's cool. I can't call her baby, you already do that. Or Robbie, Roh, an
Beau watched the rain fall and form puddles on the ground. The grass was almost being drowned by the water. He turned around and watched Robyn sleeping. She always loved the rain, it brought her peace. To him many times too,but not tonight.Colin had told him that James was the one who was visiting Kiara and feeding her and Brett all the information. He had shown him the video of their visit. He did not know how to tell Robyn about that. For Colin it had fed the fire of dislike for his father. He had talked Colin down from confronting James. Colin was going through a lot at the moment.There was a loud thunder clap that startled him. He heard Robyn wimper and went to the bed.He cuddled her while running his circles in her hair. "Shhhh. It's okay. I'm here." He cooed at her.Then another thunderclap sounded, louder than the first and Robyn sat up opening her eyes.
The garden at the Grand Hachi's had been transformed into a fairlytale themed magical place. The pink and white lilies and roses in vases laid all over the tables. The orange and cream lanterns hung in the poles all over the garden giving off a wonderful glow.Robyn was getting lemon water for Ella and an apple for Kat. She had been trying to calm them down the whole day. Each of them had something to get all worked up about. If it was not the hair, it was the something else."Hey Roh, Aunt Viv is looking for you." Layla told her as she came towards her."Oh no. Please tell her I'm caught up.""She says it won't take long.""Fine. Here, take the warm lemon water to Ella and the apple to Kat.""You got it.""Oh and remind the makeup artist not to use anything with olive oil on Ella, she is terribly allergic.""Go. I go
Colin studied James' face as he read through the sales and rights agreement. He smiled more as he read on. He glanced at Tristan who was looking at them with amusement."Well. All seems in order here." James said signing it off. "Congratulations Mr Tristan. Good luck working with him son. I hear he is ruthless. You will be begging to sell it soon." He whispered the last part and watched Tristan and his lawyer leave. Colin was left with his father and his lawyer."Can't you even wish well for your son? I am your flesh and blood.""You are my son. But you don't really expect me to be on your side when you made it very clear you were against me.""You wanted me to stand by and let you hurt my brother?" Colin asked him."That bastard is not your brother!!!!" James yelled. "He is nothing just like his stupid father. That lame excuse of a......"Colin did not let him catch his
Ella had her head on Drew's chest while the latter rubbed slow circles in her hair. It was comforting but unlike this time she was not relaxed at all. Her mind soul was restless and she did not know who to talk to.Normally she would go to Robyn but she did not want her to worry more."Are you going to tell me what's bothering you?" Drew asked her."I'm fine love.""Mmmhh...." He lifted her chin up gently and kissed her. "Sweetheart you're not. Talk to me,please. You know I'm right here with you no matter what.""Promise?" She asked pleadingly."Cross my heart." He said giving her a peck on the forehead.She sighed heavily. "It's my fault Robyn got kidnapped again and almost died."Drew made a confused face. "Why do you think that?""If I had not dated Brett or listened to her sooner none if
The golden arrows on the dark brown old clock in the cream colored office seemed to mock her. She had been staring at them for over ten minutes and it felt like they had not changed a bit. She started to look around the office for something else to distract her. The only none expensive thing in this office was the dark mahogany desk she had had shipped in six months ago after the old one had completely broken under weight of heavy files. She turned to the right and saw the blue crystal ball she had gotten him a long time ago. It made the room a little more lively.The boss was taking forever to read through the proposals from the catering companies who had submitted their tenders a week ago. She was trying so hard to keep her foot from fidgetting. It was a Friday for heaven's sake! She wanted to let loose tonight. Her best friend and roommate Ella would probably be out with her on and off boyfriend Brett. The pig nosed loud and annoying Brett. She dislik...
