Two weeks after all the drama that had happened, Sofia’s mum had already been laid to rest the past week and it was quite emotional and stressful for both the Lorenzo’s and the Bernard’s.
Most especially Sofia since she had refused to take condolences from anyone. She just told them she was fine and wanted to concentrate on her relationship with Max and the baby they are expecting.
The get-together they had planned before all those events had already been fixed for this present week.
It had been a long they had come together to have a fun relaxing time with all their families so after the burial rites they performed for Lilliana, they decided to fix a date for the get-together and decided on the week after the burial.
“Hello,” the woman from the other side answered breathlessly.
“Er… hi, this is Audriana Lorenzo, we met at the conference
The living room hosted at least twenty-something guests who were invited for the private get-together strictly for family and friends.The living room had a theme color of green, white, and cream flower decorations. There was a green rug starting from the entrance of the room to the dining area.The rod that holds the curtains has some decorative flowers on each end, the table that is in the middle of the room has a cream-colored portable vase of green and white flowers on top and a tray of wine too.The little bar that the senior Lorenzo possess has some of the guest there taking wine and talking to one another as the guy who goes by the name Davis serves them whatever drink they request.Audriana was wearing a cream off-the-shoulder floral gown with gold gladiator sandals, her hair was in a messy side bun with a flower crown on her head for beautification and she was holding a glass of fruit juice.
…“I guess I am the only one privileged to see that side of him” she shakes her body excitedly, “He makes me feel spe-” she was interrupted by the breaking of glass.Everyone turned to where the sound came from and saw that it was from Sofia who had a look of shock on her face as she looked at something or someone from a far distance.Audriana and Emily came rushing to her aid and took her from where the broken pieces were.Max immediately rushed out of the kitchen and saw some broken piece of glass on the floor that was in the path to the kitchen then his eyes went to Sofia who was surrounded by her bestie and friend.He went over to her and made sure she sat on the couch then took off her sandals to check her feet if any of the broken pieces went in her legs.“Il mio amore,” he said still searching for any broken p
The party went on smoothly with the guest except with Dimitri who would constantly throw glances at the red-haired and would look away when she or Audriana would look at him. Sofia who was in the arms of Max would keep looking at her at intervals as he talked to the other guest and had to excuse himself from their midst to come to stay with her then he kept asking her if she was okay or needed something. Caleb had to go home early with Emily since she was getting tired and seeing her cousin was already stressing her. Aiden would occasionally look at Dimitri then Daniella and when her gaze and his gaze meet he would smile and continue the lookout. And Audriana trying to forget about all that happened when Daniella came to the party and also trying to make her feel welcomed too. She was still bothered about Dimitri’s behavior when he saw Daniella and was more bothered whe
Sighing, he turned so he could stretch his body but was stopped in the process of doing so by something or someone weighty on the right side of his body. He slowly opened his eyes and frowned a bit due to the sun seeping in from the little opening of the curtain. When his eyes had adjusted to the light that came in the room he looked down to what weighed his arm down and saw his beautiful wife Audriana. Her head was laying on partly his shoulder, arm and right chest with her mouth slightly opened as light snores erupts from her lips, her golden hair was everywhere from their little workout the previous night. The blanket cover her from shoulder downward while the blankets covered from his mid-torso downward. He smiled at the sight of her and used his left arm to caress her soft slightly chubby cheeks then place a kiss on her nose to which she would sometimes shuffle or swat his hand away.
“Hey Junior, what's up” Dimitri smiled and his little nephew and held his hand up for a high five to which Max jr clapped. “Becoming strong eh?” he carried him and placed him on his lap then ruffled his hair. “Ice cream,” Junior said poking his chin. “We would get you ice cream” Dimitri confirmed. “Oh no, no.” Max came in from the kitchen and carrying a tray with canned coke and pepsi and placed it on the table in front of them then stood there giving his son questioning looks. “No ice cream for you boy. I knew you and your mama sneaked ice cream in your room to eat so I won't see you both so you are on ice cream ban for a month” he told him and grabbed a coke then sat beside Dimitri. Junior buried his face on Dimitri’s chest and whined. “No whining boy, I have given my verdict,” said Max, and Dimitri just chuckled. Junior t
“What is going on here?” a voice said from behind them.Dimitri tensed the more upon hearing the familiar voice before she took her arms that were around his torso and got off her hold then turned around to see Aiden who was frowning deeply and looking from him to her.“Why did you leave? What is going on?” he asked again, taking a step towards them.Dimitri didn’t say a word, rather he just kept looking at his friend like he was going to send him a message but it seemed like it wasn’t getting through to him.“Did you leave there just to be here with her?” he asked and the look on Dimitri’s turned to a glare.“Don’t insult me by telling me that. You of all people know me very well and you are aware of what and what I am capable of” said Dimitri.“No doubt about it bro but what about
“Oh, she would notice I wasn’t around and come looking for me,” Daniella said to him having no choice but to follow him.When they reached his car that he parked outside, he took her to the passenger seat and pushed her to the door of his car giving her a glare.“What is your problem? Why did you come back? Do you want to continue where you stopped? Can't, you see Dimitri is already doing okay without you? Why then come back? Do you want to ruin his life again?” he asked with a frown trying to understand her intentions.“And that too, you came through Audriana. You knew they were married right?” he asked growing angry.“It's none of your business,” she said after some time.“It is everything my business. Look, I don’t know what is going on in that crazy mind of yours but you need to stop this madness and let him be
He couldn’t explain what or how he had been feeling these past two weeks.He couldn’t tell if it was because Daniella finally showed up and took him and everyone who knew deeply about them by surprise or because Audriana has refused to listen to him and continued talking and hanging out with Daniella.It has been days and it feels like a long time already.His emotions have just been everywhere since that time. He couldn’t explain how he felt or what made him feel in such ways.One time he is talking and in his moody self, flirty sometimes but the next moment he is yelling, snapping, throwing tantrums like a child, and that frustrated Audriana in some ways.Although he was satisfied that she came after him that night and gave him comfort. He was peaceful when she lay on his and he could stroke her hair.He was falling asleep but she woke him
