2024-10-29 19:42:56The next day, at breakfast, Stella met the other ladies of the Castigado. There are four more ladies, two younger than her and two were older. Jennie, Marie, Annie and Trixie. Marie and Stella were almost the same age but Marie was older in months.
The list goes with Verna being the oldest, Jennie, Jason, Charles, Marie, Annie, Jenkins and Trixie being twins and are the youngest grandchildren. There are so many of them that Stella would confuse them in her head.
Then after breakfast, she was invited by them to sit and have tea near the garden. She didn’t want to but the girls had dragged her already.
“Has anyone done their fitting already? If not we ladies should go!” Marie in her sweet yet sassy voice told everyone.
“The past days were hectic I could not find time for it!” There goes what Stella thinks is Annie. “I’m in!”

He bet if it was open, she’d stick her hand out and starts catching some raindrops.It ain’t bad if he talks to her a little. With a lopsided smile on his mouth, he backs away from the stairs and walks towards the peaceful Stella.“You look like the sky today. The only thing missing is the tears!”Stella’s gaze shifted to him, her eyebrows instantly drawn together. The reaction Jason expected so he chuckled as he took the seat in front of her.“What are you doing here?” she asked.“Not even a hello, huh?”“Why, how are you today, Jason?

She knows she’s done the worst that could possibly happen between them. She has caught feelings for him so quick. Carefully, she started moving away from him when suddenly he moved closer to her, murmuring something she does not understand. Darn it! She wants to get dressed already. She feels embarrassed about how she lost control of herself. It was another her that took over, another woman she barely knows existed. Again, Stella tried to get away but Charles pulled her close.
