On their way home, Evelyn hesitately told Eric about Tom and his confession. Eric was shocked but to her surprise he was not angry like he used to be when she told him about the boys at school. He was very calm and asked her if she loved him. He found it to be an interesting topic and decided to park the car at the side of the road so that they have a good chat. She told him about her crush on him some years back and how her heart beat accelerated every time the meet.
"Tom is a nice guy little sister, I would be happy to have him as my brother-in-law. I think you can give him the chance. If you date him, he is going to help me protect you. I believe that you are safe in his care more than any other guy. I am not making a decision for you Eve,you can follow your heart. I am just giving advice as a big brother who is loving and overprotective of his sister. You know I am very strict with boys around you but this one is an exception." he said.
"I hear you but uncle Tom is my uncle. How do I date my uncle? It doesn't feel right and again if we break up so many people are going to be caught up in our conflict." she replied.
"You can't talk about break up before you even start dating. Why do you think you will break up? Some days ago I was talking about relationships with him and he told me that he needs to settle for a serious relationship that can lead to marriage. Again Tom is not your uncle, he is blood related to your cousins not you. I am looking for what's good for my sister. If you agree to be his woman, most girls are going to respect you for having such an outstanding boyfriend."
Tom was very handsome and elegant. He was also very tall and has a good temperament. He was very friendly and so soft. He was a high ranking police officer and a business man. He had a taxi industry which he runs during his spare time. Eric believed, that he was the best candidate for his cousin since he had a good job, good heart and good looks.
"So you want to be his brother-in-law?" she asked while laughing out loud. "That sounds a bit crazy."
"I am doing what's best for my little sister.Just take time to think about what we said." He gave her a reassuring hug and drove home. Soon they got home and she went to the kitchen to help Lizzy in the preparation of dinner. Lizzy had only one daughter Agnes, she was happy having Evelyn around. Agnes too was happy to have a sister. When the food was ready Agnes set the table and all the seven people gathered around the table to eat. During dinner Adam announced that there is going to be thanks giving ceremony in two weeks time.
The following weekend Eric took Evelyn to Lawrence 's place and went to his girlfriend as always. Lawrence had an emergency at work. Eric spend the whole week persuading Evelyn to agree dating Tom. He couldn't force her if she was not ready but he strongly encouraged her. She couldn't give him a direct answer, but he thought she would take his word into consideration.
The house was neat today and she only needed to prepare lunch. She put an apron and went to the kitchen. She become busy with the cooking. The nice fragrance of food was smelled from the kitchen. Tom was sitting in the living room watching TV. He was very anxious thinking about Evelyn. He was looking at the kitchen from time to time.
Later on he got the courage to go to the kitchen. The smell of food attracted him. He gave Evelyn a hug from the back with his arms wrapped around her waist. His chin rested on her shoulders. Evelyn blushed and had her heart beating vigorously. He whispered into her ear "I love u so much Eve." Evelyn blushed again and her face was red. She was shy and couldnt look at him.
Their lovely moments was interrupted by Lawrence who came back from work. He rang the door bell once and got into the house. Tom pretended to be looking for a bottle of water from the fridge while Evelyn continued preparing the food. He greeted them and was very surprised to see Evelyn with a red face. He asked her if she was having fever or something. She replied that the kitchen was too hot and Tom helped her to put on the air conditioner.
"I am going to change and I will be back in a minute. I am so hungry and the food here smells so good." he said.
"My niece is a good cook, her dishes are not different from the ones at the restaurant." Tom praised her.
"I am learning from the best teacher. The food will soon be ready, hurry up and change."she said.
Lawrence went out to change while Tom set the table. Evelyn was so shy and didn't want to look at Tom. She couldn't even find the topic to chat with him. Her reaction was seen by Tom who was amused by her.
" Are you shy baby girl? "He asked.
Evelyn prepared four dishes and a soup. She placed them on the table. Lawrence came back after changing into a pair of black pants and a white t-shirt. They were simple clothes of expensive brands. He was very elegant and classy. He was from a royal family and had a special temperament of a prince. He was very handsome and had big ears which made him more charming. Both him and Tom were very tall and charming. Women used to admire them everywhere they go. The three people sat at the table and ate lunch together. They praised the food and Tom felt so proud of his girlfriend. He was very happy with his choice. Lawrence reported this emergency work to Tom as they ate. Evelyn was listening to their complicated terminology and admired them. After eating Evelyn took the dishes to the kitchen to wash them. Lawrence and Tom sat on the sofa to watch soccer on TV. Lawrence 's phone rang and he went outside to answer. Tom also stood up and told him that he is going to help Evelyn with the dishe
Tom was not able to wait for the weekend to see Evelyn and was also afraid of asking Eric to send her over. He told Lawrence that it has been long since they last ate at Adam 's house. Lawrence was happy with the reminder and called Adam to tell him that they are coming to his house for dinner. Lizzy came home earlier and requested Evelyn to help her in the kitchen since they are having visitors. Dinner was prepared and Adam sat in the living room with his children to watch TV. Tom and Lawrence drove to his house and brought a bottle of an expensive wine. They rang the door bell and Eric went to open the door for them. He was very happy to have them around. Adam too was very happy that they came. He enjoyed their company so much. They happyly went to the kitchen to greet Lizzy and gave her the hug. Agnes and Evelyn were in the kitchen too so they got the hugs. Tom was very happy to see and hug his girlfriend. They talked and joked like t
The door bell rang and the delivery man arrived with lunch. They went to the bathroom with Tom hugging her from behind and washed their hands. They placed the food on the table and begun to eat. Evelyn was a foodie, most of the food was eaten by her. He fed her from time to time. They kissed deeply and passionately from time to time and he was able to control himself. She stopped calling him uncle and the atmosphere around them became so romantic. They wished it lasted forever. Later Eric returned and Tom told him that he is taking them out for a special dinner for two reasons. The first one was to thank Eric for helping him and Evelyn to be together. Most brothers were jealous of their sisters but he gave them the chance. The second one was to thank Evelyn for agreeing to be his girlfriend. "I think you two will take care of each other. If you fail, your breakup is going to affect many people. I hope one day will invite me to your wedding. Evelyn is like a sister to me and I want wh
The school was soon opening and it was the last weekend that Eric went to say goodbye to his girlfriend. He left Evelyn at Lawrence 's house, Lawrence was still at home. He was very happy to see them as usual and gave them the hugs. Eric quickly left and only Lawrence and Evelyn were left. Lawrence asked her about her driving lessons, he had heard from Tom that she was doing great and got her license already. Tom came to join them and he was too happy to see Evelyn and gave her a hug. He wanted to embrace her forever but he couldn't do that because they were not alone. The three of them sat together to watch TV and chatted for a while. After talking for a while Lawrence stood up went to the toilet. Tom took a bank card from his wallet and gave it to Evelyn. "Here is a bank card for you, it has no limit, you can use it anytime you need money or find something you like. I have heard about your home situation and I don't want you to suffer in my pre
Tom stood up and left. Lawrence dialed Evelyn 's number and wanted to scold her. She was having dinner at home with her three cousins when she received the call. Her sister went to the university abroad to study Financial Accounting while her brother went to the boarding school. Their youngest sister was raised by Edith since she was six months old because their mother wanted to go to work. Evelyn and Eric were staying with Edwin who was Lawrence 's brother, he had just moved to a new school here. They were also staying with Ace who is Elsie 's first son. Elsie was the sister to Edith and Joyce. They also had two step-brothers, Adam and Albert who is Lawrence and Edwin 's father. Evelyn happyly answered the phone only to hear Lawrence scolding her on the other side. " I don't want to see you again in my house, you pretended to be visiting me while you came here for Tom. You are becoming promiscuous. I trusted both of you and I am very disappointed." He hung u
Eric interrupted Ace and urged him to stop scolding Evelyn because of the assumptions. Ace was even more angry that Eric interrupted him. He lost his temper and threw tentrums. Edwin was staying with them for the first time and felt so out of place. He wondered if he would spend the whole year living with them. On the other hand, Ace was so gentle to him. He didn't know what to do or say. He regretted not staying at school. The school was not far so they walked to school.That evening Evelyn and Eric ate outside. Eric took Evelyn out to relieve her stress and also to avoid the embarrassment caused by Ace at home. Their action made Ace furious. He even called Evelyn 's sister and told her that he was staying with troublesome kids.Two days later Eric called Lawrence as he had promised Tom and Evelyn. He asked him why he scolded Evelyn and further explained the advantages of Tom and Evelyn being in love. Lawrence was calm and listened carefull
