The phone alarm woke Leo845Please respect copyright.PENANAvNkaaK1JSL
up with a start and he sat up on his bed. He got his phone that laid on845Please respect copyright.PENANA28SDD8JAgM
top of the drawer close to the bed and switched off the alarm. He was 845Please respect copyright.PENANAGGw3KyqrVH
shocked when he looked at the time on his phone. It was morning and Leo 845Please respect copyright.PENANA7PYV0geQ5h
was still in his clothes he had worn yesterday. He must have been so 845Please respect copyright.PENANAC2w82V8YQ9
worked up last night that he had even forgotten to have supper with the 845Please respect copyright.PENANAsMXsOe5VcV
rest of the family. He still wondered how he had fallen asleep all of 845Please respect copyright.PENANA3XQzFUdxG8
the sudden. He just scowled at himself as he ran a hand through his 845Please respect copyright.PENANASIEJM4KwCo
scruffy blonde hair and he got out of bed to take a shower.845Please respect copyright.PENANA0Q5u7yWYwD
After taking a shower, 845Please respect copyright.PENANAgNMdrnxv3k
he picked out some casual clothes from his closet since he wasn't in the845Please respect copyright.PENANAtCw3h2lYmn
mood for going early to work. He wore a blue golf shirt and a pair of 845Please respect copyright.PENANAePa4liQJuc
cream coloured chinos. He combed his hair back and he looked as neat as 845Please respect copyright.PENANAwKXEs6Y0we
ever. 845Please respect copyright.PENANAa9N2gFL9pd
He soon went out of his 845Please respect copyright.PENANA5nU3BMH4Mz
room to take a walk around the house since it was just the early hours 845Please respect copyright.PENANA1DYdYuswjE
of the morning and almost everyone in the house was still asleep. He was845Please respect copyright.PENANAmG0jF3niPv
heading towards the living room when he felt someone coming from behind845Please respect copyright.PENANAAedpwzIRoF
and wrap their arms around him. From the scent, Leo could easily tell 845Please respect copyright.PENANAIbnKlHzUUV
who it was. He turned around to face Carly who was beaming happily at 845Please respect copyright.PENANABRSOeR4YYt
him.845Please respect copyright.PENANAHdPRw9vAcM
"Well, you're one early bird," said Carly, her smile as wide as ever. 845Please respect copyright.PENANACq6Pd9PTmC
"And aren't you supposed to be somewhere?" Leo asked as he wrapped his arms around Carly's waist and pulled her close.845Please respect copyright.PENANAnmIEXfFWEv
"Don't ruin the mood by 845Please respect copyright.PENANAQu9AskihPy
telling me to go for lectures," Carly tugged at Leo's collar playfully. 845Please respect copyright.PENANAEe4qY0BrFw
"Let's just try to enjoy the moment."845Please respect copyright.PENANA24PMZx0RJR
Leo smiled as he 845Please respect copyright.PENANA4fgXyZBJRy
considered what Carly said. It was a beautiful morning and the sunshine 845Please respect copyright.PENANAFiJN2e7kUx
shone brightly into the living room giving it a wonderful warm feeling. 845Please respect copyright.PENANAMYhLrlQAjo
And Leo was here standing with the most beautiful woman he had ever met.845Please respect copyright.PENANAr0o5wYm6Jb
Her beautiful glowing face was too irresistible to look away from. Her 845Please respect copyright.PENANAtK05ssvrTG
soft brown eyes looked up at him and Leo couldn't stop staring back. He 845Please respect copyright.PENANA4SUwjugqZx
bent down closer to give Carly a light kiss on her beautiful lips.845Please respect copyright.PENANAXWorYhwTuc
"You're right," said Leo after he pulled away from her lips. "We should enjoy this moment while we can."845Please respect copyright.PENANAOBsSSOkdbA
"Mmmm, so what do you suggest we do then?" Carly asked as she bit her lower lip playfully.845Please respect copyright.PENANAlac0UVaz2m
"Well, everyone is still asleep, so, we can have a few minutes to ourselves. Come up to my room."845Please respect copyright.PENANAwWjEd2x2s1
"Wait, I come up to your room? Won't your mother find us?"845Please respect copyright.PENANAaD1jMwP7Ft
"Don't tell me you're afraid of her," Leo almost laughed.845Please respect copyright.PENANAP9a5j7LBLE
"I'm not scared," said Carly almost pouting her lips. "She looks like one heck of a drama queen."845Please respect copyright.PENANAiU37Lqm3Cf
"She is, actually," said845Please respect copyright.PENANAAoFxKxONV0
Leo. He pulled Carly into a bear hug. "But don't worry, she won't do 845Please respect copyright.PENANAwRLRkd184f
anything to you. You have me around."845Please respect copyright.PENANAOHYb1bshuj
"I know," Carly smiled. "Let's go to your room. We have a lot to talk about."845Please respect copyright.PENANAGjHgYC0pIq
"Oh really?" Leo looked down at Carly. "What is it we have to talk about?"845Please respect copyright.PENANAgwSoSjCWHD
Before Carly could say 845Please respect copyright.PENANAuFKSdVthJm
anything, they heard a loud thud, like something had dropped to the 845Please respect copyright.PENANAlOayMKXWrK
floor. Then they heard someone faintly mourn out in pain.845Please respect copyright.PENANAoVDDZD7sNi
"What was that?" Leo asked.845Please respect copyright.PENANAZrOhmjL49n
"Oh, my gosh, Angel," said Carly as she ran down the hall towards Angel's room and Leo quickly followed behind her.845Please respect copyright.PENANAwemYTeZaD5
Carly got to Angel's 845Please respect copyright.PENANAxS7bLKHss4
room first and when she burged into the room, she found Angel lying down845Please respect copyright.PENANA5cnU1Axyj9
on the floor close to her bed whining in pain. Carly quickly ran to her845Please respect copyright.PENANAh09m8G7bBL
sister's aid and that's when Leo had finally appeared at the door.845Please respect copyright.PENANAJ4lNu6nNdw
"Don't worry, Angel, I'm here," said Carly as she slowly lifted Angel and helped her up on the bed.845Please respect copyright.PENANAYJND3aMpBv
"What happened? Are you alright?" Carly asked.845Please respect copyright.PENANArP0s8CV1nk
"I'm fine, don't worry about me," said Angel. "I was just trying to get something but I ended up dropping to the floor."845Please respect copyright.PENANAdnIeJqRAvD
"You know you're not 845Please respect copyright.PENANAJQrRZwozRI
okay, but instead you still want to do things on your own without asking845Please respect copyright.PENANAqqyYvdE9iu
for help. You never change, Angel."845Please respect copyright.PENANABNp36jmn9z
"I'm okay as you can see. And by the way, thanks."845Please respect copyright.PENANAlCp0TgLETi
"Well, since you're awake, can I make you a cup of tea?"845Please respect copyright.PENANAAbE8T2Fv3v
"No thanks, I'm fine."845Please respect copyright.PENANAKRcI3KuaPB
Angel went on to look at845Please respect copyright.PENANAzGV2yRcKU6
the door and saw Leo standing there. She stared at him for a moment and845Please respect copyright.PENANAonoj3VNNTZ
then she went on to stare at Carly.845Please respect copyright.PENANAcKfBhc8PIB
"And why are you up so early? Do you have a lecture to attend to today?" Angel asked.845Please respect copyright.PENANAuagi2RAzRp
Carly paused as she 845Please respect copyright.PENANAQ8OJ90GbZn
looked at her sister and then at Leo. She went back to facing her sister845Please respect copyright.PENANAXo6euZYQan
and before she could say anything, Amanda appeared by the door behind 845Please respect copyright.PENANAdZin6bDJia
Leo.845Please respect copyright.PENANAhM8AP8Jq6Y
"What happened in here?" Amanda asked. "I thought I heard something fall."845Please respect copyright.PENANAOf3wfJeK4y
"Ah, yes," said Carly, 845Please respect copyright.PENANAP0MbRcnIi9
feeling relieved that Amanda had arrived. "Angel here was trying to get 845Please respect copyright.PENANAoc4b1RmT0N
something but ended up on the floor. Nothing to worry about. She's not 845Please respect copyright.PENANAqO0KbL1W5x
hurt or anything."845Please respect copyright.PENANAxMPntP5uGW
"May you please drag me 845Please respect copyright.PENANAY2uXtnifsH
in, Leo?" Amanda asked her grandson and Leo obediently obliged and 845Please respect copyright.PENANAU9SnZ13au8
pushed his grandmother's wheelchair into the room.845Please respect copyright.PENANAGRODe74kZm
"Are you alright, dear?" Amanda asked Angel.845Please respect copyright.PENANAdqRtJMdogj
"Just like Carly said, 845Please respect copyright.PENANAUt5Qg32nO0
I'm fine," said Angel, giving Amanda a little smile. When she looked up 845Please respect copyright.PENANAB1Og7cmIgT
at Leo, she almost scowled at him.845Please respect copyright.PENANAanesaLJmIb
"That's good, but don't do that again. Who knows what might happen. Thank goodness Carly and Leo came just in time."845Please respect copyright.PENANAphIw3u0cih
The room soon had an 845Please respect copyright.PENANAfLaiKtL1Js
awkward feeling. Amanda couldn't feel it, but Angel, Carly and Leo 845Please respect copyright.PENANAxSmH5bMT5t
could. Angel just continued to stare at Amanda trying to hide the 845Please respect copyright.PENANA0vRLnmMrwP
awkwardness.845Please respect copyright.PENANAhxHyKmGpft
"If you need me, grandma, I'll be in my room," said Leo.845Please respect copyright.PENANAkKPVeJ5hkv
"Okay, dear. You and I need to talk over some things. Let's meet after breakfast."845Please respect copyright.PENANA6cFovBHJbO
"Sure."845Please respect copyright.PENANAcvuRj9rOwq
Leo stared at Carly 845Please respect copyright.PENANAxqVofkjrCj
before he left. He wanted to smile at her, but he could feel Angel's 845Please respect copyright.PENANA6pVtwPpgJG
eyes on him, stabbing him like daggers. He quickly left the room to 845Please respect copyright.PENANAK0BnrB2dke
avoid any more problems.845Please respect copyright.PENANAndNNrKSxvc
"I was about to go and make a cup of tea," said Carly.845Please respect copyright.PENANAUZudc5xgGV
"I don't want....." started Angel but Amanda soon stepped in.845Please respect copyright.PENANAFoHVMpGewK
"Tea would be lovely, 845Please respect copyright.PENANAfHvNIirQ1G
dear," said Amanda giving Carly a smile. "It's sad that it's too early 845Please respect copyright.PENANAR0bqtfzds9
in the morning for the helpers to be up and about in the kitchen. They 845Please respect copyright.PENANAxcTRVL2AWP
could have helped you."845Please respect copyright.PENANATWwaGg19jg
"Not to worry, I can find my way around," said Carly.845Please respect copyright.PENANAOIMSOtSmmS
"Good, Angel and I will be waiting."845Please respect copyright.PENANA6QVoeLlhFK
Carly gladly smiled at 845Please respect copyright.PENANAF9tjDhAf63
Amanda and quickly made a beeline to the door and closed it behind her. 845Please respect copyright.PENANAkHqeENRCht
Angel continued to stare at the door. She couldn't help but wonder why 845Please respect copyright.PENANAGpAxHGKk3w
Carly was up so early. She was never this early. Or maybe it's because 845Please respect copyright.PENANAKLgWJp8jHQ
she didn't have anywhere to go last night?845Please respect copyright.PENANAeucPByrLn4
And Leo? It was strange 845Please respect copyright.PENANA3JoUv6QecH
that both of them were awake at the same time. Could it be that they 845Please respect copyright.PENANA2MCCkJIzsD
were together? Angel couldn't stop thinking about the two of them 845Please respect copyright.PENANAdZkb0hRONM
together in each other's arms. It almost made her sick.845Please respect copyright.PENANAVSn0Iah9tl
"They were definitely together, no doubt about that," Angel thought to herself.845Please respect copyright.PENANAUboNqzUNIx
"Are you alright, dear?" Amanda asked.845Please respect copyright.PENANAxJlNHX5o4f
"I am, you don't have to worry about me," Angel replied.845Please respect copyright.PENANA1N2F0XP9W1
"What were you planning to do that made you fall?"845Please respect copyright.PENANAKdbODLtB59
"I was trying to reach out for something and I completely forgot that my legs weren't completely healed."845Please respect copyright.PENANANhotQXdplu
"I understand. But tell me, did you sleep well, last night?"845Please respect copyright.PENANA8EGHxlQRfj
"I did, Amanda, thanks for asking."845Please respect copyright.PENANAuaXTH8W695
While Amanda and Angel 845Please respect copyright.PENANAMSt4pC5YeV
continued to chat, Carly was in the kitchen preparing tea. Just as she 845Please respect copyright.PENANA2gbYR1uo3a
found the tea leaves and put them in the two white teacups, Leo appeared845Please respect copyright.PENANAfEnTcbr4WI
at the door.845Please respect copyright.PENANAUOhVS8e6dh
"Hey," said Leo as he came in.845Please respect copyright.PENANAGt9JkmzW8k
"Hey," said Carly as she gave him a smile. "Sorry for what happened earlier."845Please respect copyright.PENANAh6CvivzGcO
"With your sister? I know she ruined our little moment. It's like she knew you and I were together."845Please respect copyright.PENANA6ue7jOtiHw
"No, she didn't." Carly 845Please respect copyright.PENANAX8Ya1cf4t2
went over to the electric kettle that had already boiled the water and 845Please respect copyright.PENANAhmgfRjXVC6
poured the water into the teacups. "And besides, you shouldn't have 845Please respect copyright.PENANAZjLMxgQs9f
followed me to her room. The way she looked at the both of us when you 845Please respect copyright.PENANA1FIEzwSMnd
appeared, she probably knows that we were together."845Please respect copyright.PENANAdTr4udtOC1
"I don't care about 845Please respect copyright.PENANABcBCLj5p0h
that." Leo came over to Carly and wrapped his arms around her waist from845Please respect copyright.PENANA2ns9DXEBO6
the back. "She can think all she wants. She knows my feelings for you 845Please respect copyright.PENANAn8N1jiIC6G
are real."845Please respect copyright.PENANAOnUIHQfrV6
Carly smiled and she 845Please respect copyright.PENANAsnkNnSIoBj
loved the feeling of Leo's arms around her. She felt so safe and secure 845Please respect copyright.PENANAAmorTlF7Fo
that she didn't want him to let her go.845Please respect copyright.PENANAdZIdLK8S6e
She quickly turned 845Please respect copyright.PENANAN9OWegKx1I
around to face him and said, "as much as Angel knows, the rest of the 845Please respect copyright.PENANAfkmy0K1QC2
people here don't. And do you know what would happen if they find out? 845Please respect copyright.PENANA3ZJ1D7Q5lr
They would freak out."845Please respect copyright.PENANAsujoVvqK4c
"Especially my mum," said Leo rolling his eyes.845Please respect copyright.PENANA0byPR2Zd9b
"Yes." Carly gave him a smile. "Especially your mum."845Please respect copyright.PENANAW7G5BpEmdZ
Leo continued to look 845Please respect copyright.PENANAYzuy5NIBOc
down at Carly and he couldn't help but bend over and kiss her on the 845Please respect copyright.PENANA85CB9H4KCa
cheek. Carly couldn't help but blush as she playfully pushed him away.845Please respect copyright.PENANAMTR0EmfAUq
"I've to go and take tea for my sister and your grandmother."845Please respect copyright.PENANAuDIPsGDTzv
"Wait," said Leo as he made his way over to her again, "may I just give you a little......"845Please respect copyright.PENANAEGz3rnfcz1
"What's going on here?"845Please respect copyright.PENANA8jFOuMCUJU
Leo and Carly almost 845Please respect copyright.PENANACmraRKqdlx
jumped in fright as they turned towards the door and standing there in a845Please respect copyright.PENANAsXZAPPYNkD
blue nightgown, was Mrs McDonell. She looked over at Carly and Leo with845Please respect copyright.PENANAzUwGGKBhay
an eyebrow raised. The two stood a few feet apart from each other.845Please respect copyright.PENANAefRwGLgDUh
"I asked a question and I demand an answer," she said. "What's going on here?"845Please respect copyright.PENANArnYVfLWfUM
"Nothing, nothing is going on, Mrs McDonell," Carly replied. "I was only preparing tea."845Please respect copyright.PENANAR80MSm62wf
"Tea for who?" Mrs McDonell folded her arms.845Please respect copyright.PENANAb3KnqsF1cC
"For Amanda and Angel."845Please respect copyright.PENANAvImbJcVM86
"They are both awake?"845Please respect copyright.PENANAy60z4sGudB
"Yes, they are. They are in Angel's room right now."845Please respect copyright.PENANAUXk2mn4JZk
Mrs McDonell looked at 845Please respect copyright.PENANAEPtLzMCEBs
Carly, then at her son, then back at Carly again. She couldn't figure 845Please respect copyright.PENANAavU2K0Ju9R
out why the two of them were here together, alone. She just brushed it 845Please respect copyright.PENANAnCP0li07oE
off.845Please respect copyright.PENANAAph1MARH4b
"Fine, take their tea," said Mrs McDonell.845Please respect copyright.PENANAHtEokgAlfy
Carly took the tray 845Please respect copyright.PENANAPInqdYVP2K
where the teacups lay and put the teaspoons and bowl of sugar on the 845Please respect copyright.PENANAYXLgcmmWft
tray. She quickly made her way past Leo and past his mother standing by 845Please respect copyright.PENANAEunBYbazQl
the door. Mrs McDonell looked on at Carly as she disappeared round the 845Please respect copyright.PENANARA8NeHUmHJ
corner.845Please respect copyright.PENANAg8ciy5HszU
"Mmmm," Mrs McDonell looked at her son. "She's has a great body. Even through her nightgown, I can make out her figure."845Please respect copyright.PENANA0PxhdGEedJ
Leo shook his head at his mother. "You're so unbelievable," he said.845Please respect copyright.PENANARgJ4YbOPZf
"What did I do now? I'm just trying to make conversation with you. I never saw you when you came back last night."845Please respect copyright.PENANA85k3xy2M3R
"I don't want to talk, mum. Maybe later."845Please respect copyright.PENANAeRuY6k1WtV
Leo made his way to the 845Please respect copyright.PENANAhTZN4l7g4f
kitchen door, bypassing his mother. Mrs McDonell could only sigh as she 845Please respect copyright.PENANAuvo5EbS2Da
thought of how she was going to handle Leo.845Please respect copyright.PENANAwf4Gl4zYsL
By seven, almost 845Please respect copyright.PENANAVIUp0uUe6m
everyone was awake and the house help were now up and about getting the 845Please respect copyright.PENANAcOJzDu0fWe
place cleaned up. Breakfast was already being made in the kitchen and 845Please respect copyright.PENANA5hv7bmYOHG
the lovely smell was intoxicating.845Please respect copyright.PENANAG7UpfNNppP
"Oh, my, I'm so hungry,"845Please respect copyright.PENANA8zUS2PVG0y
said Oliver as he came down the stairs with his backpack. He quickly 845Please respect copyright.PENANA0DluFFp0z1
dropped his bag by the foyer so that he would just grab it when it was 845Please respect copyright.PENANAviBEtOck5y
time to go to school.845Please respect copyright.PENANAMTVw9BXUrM
He quickly rushed over to the dinning area and found one of the helpers setting the table for breakfast.845Please respect copyright.PENANAqChCRP9PBM
"Morning, Oliver," came Leo as he entered the dinning room. "Did the smell of food drag you here?"845Please respect copyright.PENANAKRmW2fUUME
"Yep," Oliver replied as he took his seat at the table. "Looks like it dragged you here too."845Please respect copyright.PENANApGQAAOZhfw
"Ya, it did." Leo soon came to sit right next to him.845Please respect copyright.PENANATvxUjI7B7N
"Morning, you two," came Diana as she came over and gave Oliver a peck on the cheek.845Please respect copyright.PENANASYdoHMtBZX
"Morning, mum," said Oliver.845Please respect copyright.PENANAizXDH6VpgB
"Morning, aunt," said Leo.845Please respect copyright.PENANAUfr6cjAiaW
"What happened yesterday, Leo?" Diana asked as she sat opposite her son. "You weren't around for supper?"845Please respect copyright.PENANAx6HBW7bd60
"I fell asleep," he replied. "I was so exhausted."845Please respect copyright.PENANAFvOQYOyDqm
"I figured." Diana gave her nephew a smile as she poured a glass of orange juice.845Please respect copyright.PENANACdTIJdue4Z
Bacon, sausage, friuts, 845Please respect copyright.PENANAolMfMrvvNj
eggs, toast and delicious muffins were soon served on the table. Leo and845Please respect copyright.PENANAM21LEsoZyS
his cousin couldn't help but water at the delicious food in front of 845Please respect copyright.PENANA6kn5u5EQAq
them.845Please respect copyright.PENANApZwnFF4mJv
"I can't wait to get all of this into my mouth," said Oliver.845Please respect copyright.PENANApPd6O1Awqt
"Hey, are you going to leave some for me?" came Carly as she stepped into the dinning area.845Please respect copyright.PENANA6sq0jqgiOi
"Of course we were," said Diana. "The boys can't eat all this by themselves."845Please respect copyright.PENANAn4BR8ylVi1
"We definitely can, right, Leo?" Oliver asked.845Please respect copyright.PENANApyzLbCBDmV
"Right," Leo replied.845Please respect copyright.PENANA6zDJeR4wMD
Carly went to sit right next to Diana, and at the same time, faced Leo. Leo couldn't help but smile at her and she did the same.845Please respect copyright.PENANAQvydj6teTL
Just as they were about 845Please respect copyright.PENANAJ5QPXCUAPa
to eat, Mr McDonell came in and settled down after giving his morning 845Please respect copyright.PENANA6Hy9Q8mfCT
greetings at the head of the table. As usual every morning, there was a 845Please respect copyright.PENANAF9vjS4iUx5
newspaper at the table ready for him to be read.845Please respect copyright.PENANAmD226gOGLi
"Will you be going early to the office, Leo?" Mr McDonald asked as he poured himself a cup of coffee.845Please respect copyright.PENANAqLvgBRYqwL
"No, I'll be there a little late, dad," Leo replied.845Please respect copyright.PENANAzzM5bobY5s
"Oh, goodness, me," came Amanda's voice. "Looks like almost everyone is here for breakfast."845Please respect copyright.PENANAAKRup6j44Q
Before Leo could reply 845Please respect copyright.PENANAezd8r1xM7h
that not everyone was here, he turned on his chair and saw his grandma 845Please respect copyright.PENANA9V7YOki88H
being wheeled in by one of the helpers and Eric with Angel. He quickly 845Please respect copyright.PENANAsy1HJLmU2v
looked away feeling irritated.845Please respect copyright.PENANALdvWHmapJe
"Morning, everyone," said Amanda cheerfully as she was placed right next to Leo.845Please respect copyright.PENANAUO1VSvIJFL
Everyone else on the 845Please respect copyright.PENANA1xszlh0T56
table said good morning to her. Angel also greeted everyone as well as 845Please respect copyright.PENANA6LNe936xfG
she settled on the other side of the table with Eric. Everyone replied, 845Please respect copyright.PENANALwTSxOW7L7
except Leo.845Please respect copyright.PENANAOvR46EXstG
"This is just lovely," 845Please respect copyright.PENANAIgV1eqDJxZ
said Amanda. "Usually at breakfast we are never gathered together like 845Please respect copyright.PENANAbQhmb8KvVN
this. Most of the time, we're all doing our own things and people leave 845Please respect copyright.PENANABN2YYuvZH2
really early."845Please respect copyright.PENANAoLRJKrg765
"That's true, mum," said Mr McDonell. "I was also thinking the same thing."845Please respect copyright.PENANAoPKcYhHajY
"Your wife isn't here, 845Please respect copyright.PENANAYnzy9w8S7i
though, but I'm not worried about her." Amanda gave a bright smile. 845Please respect copyright.PENANA6vE58yGyPC
"It's good to see everyone of you all here in the morning."845Please respect copyright.PENANAsOEn7WSx0v
"I wonder why this has happened today," said Eric.845Please respect copyright.PENANAxxHzyUlF1e
"I think it's because of our important guests," said Amanda as the helper beside her served her breakfast on a plate.845Please respect copyright.PENANAhBeRCVpVWv
Angel almost spelt the 845Please respect copyright.PENANALX7FFbGhlO
juice she was pouring into her glass but steadied her hand just in time.845Please respect copyright.PENANA3XDEjeLzlH
Leo almost choked on his toast. Their eyes somehow fell upon each other845Please respect copyright.PENANAus0HuIvPM2
and they quickly looked away. Angel put down the jug of juice and Leo 845Please respect copyright.PENANAswpofkhxc8
just ran a hand through his hair.845Please respect copyright.PENANAWLxgrrG3bG
"Here, let me serve you," said Eric as he poured the juice in Angel's glass.845Please respect copyright.PENANAVaKI04bY3k
"Thanks, Eric," said Angel, giving him a smile.845Please respect copyright.PENANAyol6rdybXS
"A doctor is coming to check up on you, Angel," said Mr McDonell. "He's our family doctor."845Please respect copyright.PENANAfIJRhGl9av
"Oh, no, there is no need for that, Mr McDonell," said Angel.845Please respect copyright.PENANARkBsDr4dkt
"Well, someone has to check up on you from time to time. It's no big deal. It's for your own good."845Please respect copyright.PENANAam7LYVbLDA
"You should listen to him, dear," said Amanda. "You aren't going to be the only one getting a medical checkup today."845Please respect copyright.PENANAIZpznpQDR7
Angel smiled at Amanda and ate her breakfast. Everyone else went on happily with their meal.845Please respect copyright.PENANAOYqVCx8X4l
As soon as Oliver was done, he got up from the table.845Please respect copyright.PENANAnf2mxv3g9s
"Have to go to school," he said.845Please respect copyright.PENANANq4860UsXn
"Okay, have a nice day, Oliver," said Angel.845Please respect copyright.PENANA31Z5Vi9c0S
Oliver came round the 845Please respect copyright.PENANAj2wAk8GdIN
table to where Angel sat and gave her a hug from behind. Angel gave a 845Please respect copyright.PENANANAccPfCebR
heartfelt laugh. Leo just rolled his eyes at her. He was so not liking 845Please respect copyright.PENANA8XKQ94z2wD
what was happening in front of him. Her laugh felt so irritating to his 845Please respect copyright.PENANANajoorTaDq
ears.845Please respect copyright.PENANAAiC5DhHaa7
"You too," said Oliver as he smiled and went over to hug his mum and soon ran out of the dinning room.845Please respect copyright.PENANAVkOgfari8k
"So adorable," said Carly.845Please respect copyright.PENANAJfogxS3jZA
"He's adorable when he wants to be and annoying when you least expect it," said Eric.845Please respect copyright.PENANAnCj7yKEprj
"That's not true," said Diana. "My Oliver is not like that."845Please respect copyright.PENANAKXSVEHqZcV
Eric playfully rolled his eyes. "Then you don't know your own son at all."845Please respect copyright.PENANA3dA5ouL4Cs
"And you think I don't know you? You playboy."845Please respect copyright.PENANAiEtlNAgJfJ
Eric looked at his mother giving her the sign to keep quiet. "Mum....are you seriously saying that in front of Angel right now?"845Please respect copyright.PENANAxTYwCeCzUi
"I don't mind," said Angel as she looked like she would burst out laughing.845Please respect copyright.PENANAkhFCsOap0t
"Well, I do."845Please respect copyright.PENANAiXS2P24hlk
"Enough," said Diana. "You're running late for work."845Please respect copyright.PENANAViqkkACF51
"Seriously, mum?" Eric looked at her.845Please respect copyright.PENANA9LfRW3nZK1
"I would listen to her if I were you," said Mr McDonell. "We better head to the office. You and I have a lot of work to do."845Please respect copyright.PENANAZ43b1ZadUC
"Okay, uncle," said Eric as he got his last piece of toast and bit it and then stood up.845Please respect copyright.PENANAtLnWnFPYfd
"I'll find you in the 845Please respect copyright.PENANAHNf5bysrOo
car," said Mr McDonell as he also stood up from his chair. "I'll go get 845Please respect copyright.PENANANHypdQT9pE
my briefcase." He soon went out of the dining room.845Please respect copyright.PENANAEA2gPVGooJ
"Are you coming with us, Leo?" Eric asked.845Please respect copyright.PENANACLT3oSSNLD
"No, I'll find you at the office later," Leo answered.845Please respect copyright.PENANA9hlJisM5MS
"Yes," said Amanda. "He and I have to have a little chat before he leaves."845Please respect copyright.PENANANYyaIgjoQm
"Okay. Angel," Eric looked over at Angel and patted her head. "I'll see you when I get back from work."845Please respect copyright.PENANAigKc3ZNzwX
"I'm not a kid for you to be patting my head like that," said Angel as she looked up at Eric with an annoyed look.845Please respect copyright.PENANAZkOvCfuB2y
Eric didn't say anything but smiled at her and said goodbye to everyone else on the table and left the dining room.845Please respect copyright.PENANA16dTGxfbT3
"I also have a lot of work to do at the beauty parlour today," said Diana as she also finished her breakfast.845Please respect copyright.PENANAkht6YJpYoX
"You work at the beauty parlour, aunt?" Carly asked with so much excitement.845Please respect copyright.PENANAXTpGWnFn6w
"I own it, my dear," Diana answered with a smile. "Would you like to join me and see the place?"845Please respect copyright.PENANA92SawAa6EM
Before Carly could 845Please respect copyright.PENANAU9MqwD2ewW
reply, she looked over at her sister who was looking at her breakfast. 845Please respect copyright.PENANATmoD2BrdQ8
She hadn't finished half way and she didn't seem the least bit 845Please respect copyright.PENANAaQWHp3OUpL
interested about what her sister was up to.845Please respect copyright.PENANA2sNKw6MMx3
"I'll join you," said 845Please respect copyright.PENANA9oPRBSB3R0
Carly. "It's Friday today and I don't think I'm in the mood for lectures845Please respect copyright.PENANAhIv60K4xnH
after what happened. I need to take my mind off things."845Please respect copyright.PENANA0EiYVRcdm2
"Perfect," said Diana as she stood up from her seat. "I'll go see if Bertha is willing to go with us."845Please respect copyright.PENANAehaCEQpISu
"I'll go get ready," 845Please respect copyright.PENANAjtq1z6N87g
said Carly as the two ladies quickly left the table. Angel gave Carly a 845Please respect copyright.PENANAOiGshCmEYV
weird look and shook her head. Carly was definitely something else at 845Please respect copyright.PENANA4r8UzcuGIp
times.845Please respect copyright.PENANAZyxv7XoZq3
"Women and their beauty," said Amanda as she shook her head.845Please respect copyright.PENANAIjzPSvPZAO
There were now the three of them at the table. Amanda, Angel and Leo.845Please respect copyright.PENANA8oXL2G0Zk8
"That only leaves the three of us," said Amanda excitedly. "This is just what I needed."845Please respect copyright.PENANAUM93wAquaE
The last thing Leo 845Please respect copyright.PENANA3ypv6Ua8NR
needed was to be in the same room with Angel and Angel also felt the 845Please respect copyright.PENANAh9uU47Fkj3
same way. For the both of them, this was extremely awful.845Please respect copyright.PENANAesJreRB7CP
"You know I'll need to be at work earlier in the day, grandma," said Leo as he looked at Amanda.845Please respect copyright.PENANARHzgtKt0FL
"Of course, I know, you silly boy," said Amanda as she playfully pinched Leo's cheek. "Remember, you and I need to talk."845Please respect copyright.PENANAaQo57LLxCA
"Oww, grandma!" Leo responded as he held his pinched cheek.845Please respect copyright.PENANAydC5NUON7H
"If you want to talk right now, I'll leave you two, then," said Angel as she started to roll her wheelchair back.845Please respect copyright.PENANAZuXlhsUuKZ
"Not so fast, dear," said Amanda. "You aren't going anywhere. I need to talk to the both of you."845Please respect copyright.PENANAcTFEXCtiV8
"Huh?" Angel and Leo said at the same time with confused looks on their faces.845Please respect copyright.PENANAbJypAEJ4p2
"Yes. It's really 845Please respect copyright.PENANA8nq0rbLRvu
important that I speak to you both. Don't be mad. We really have to talk845Please respect copyright.PENANAn52299eF7Z
and I lied that I only had to talk to Leo so that he can stay for a 845Please respect copyright.PENANAuKNMkymDo6
while. I know the last thing you want is for me to bother you around 845Please respect copyright.PENANAjBO3QQ6cBk
since I'm so old."845Please respect copyright.PENANAG1oeahLXQE
Angel and Leo looked at each other. They were stuck now. They wouldn't like to hurt Amanda's feelings. Not in anyway, at least.845Please respect copyright.PENANAF4JzOspSCX
"Okay, then," Angel agreed first. "I'm willing to listen, Amanda.845Please respect copyright.PENANATizjj8Ox3l
"Thank you, Angel," said Amanda. She turned to look at Leo. "See how sweet she is? Now, are you going to hear me out or what?"845Please respect copyright.PENANA1jsoiOivlS
Leo sighed. He looked 845Please respect copyright.PENANAMC8xTbR42z
over at Angel who looked like she would cut his neck with a butter knife845Please respect copyright.PENANA7BN0yUzZiD
that laid right next to her on the table. He also threw her a look but 845Please respect copyright.PENANAzgOQlBqltq
quickly changed it when he turned to face his grandmother.845Please respect copyright.PENANASZEX9Gr6J0
"Okay, grandma," he said. "I'll listen."845Please respect copyright.PENANAtJszmEMKz7
"Good," said Amanda with a bright smile on her face. "Let's go to the patio."
