The phone alarm woke Leo1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1Rdw2W1tL
up with a start and he sat up on his bed. He got his phone that laid on1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjeyKBYdzt
top of the drawer close to the bed and switched off the alarm. He was 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rbFs7BVue
shocked when he looked at the time on his phone. It was morning and Leo 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAAc9HLgLD
was still in his clothes he had worn yesterday. He must have been so 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKL4D78Y29
worked up last night that he had even forgotten to have supper with the 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BI1ShdKwC
rest of the family. He still wondered how he had fallen asleep all of 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUvi5HZhMW
the sudden. He just scowled at himself as he ran a hand through his 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimlIESeFyx
scruffy blonde hair and he got out of bed to take a shower.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLGFsPYWa2
After taking a shower, 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjC3GdZCMkN
he picked out some casual clothes from his closet since he wasn't in the1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUpZHbUuAH
mood for going early to work. He wore a blue golf shirt and a pair of 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ09GUNexHt
cream coloured chinos. He combed his hair back and he looked as neat as 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16ews8pdTO
ever. 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVVFeWZd2V
He soon went out of his 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQwUyTKMP3
room to take a walk around the house since it was just the early hours 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXUykZ6xH4
of the morning and almost everyone in the house was still asleep. He was1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpvknxtb8r
heading towards the living room when he felt someone coming from behind1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflQdq6fxol
and wrap their arms around him. From the scent, Leo could easily tell 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiaLeFqAequ
who it was. He turned around to face Carly who was beaming happily at 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcle5MpeBy
him.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFLZTSVHlb
"Well, you're one early bird," said Carly, her smile as wide as ever. 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYgeHhheoa1
"And aren't you supposed to be somewhere?" Leo asked as he wrapped his arms around Carly's waist and pulled her close.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GCIKlKjDV
"Don't ruin the mood by 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNsm2EwSpQe
telling me to go for lectures," Carly tugged at Leo's collar playfully. 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Mpb3uDIbs
"Let's just try to enjoy the moment."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7mS68xB7X
Leo smiled as he 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6ozvzK7pC
considered what Carly said. It was a beautiful morning and the sunshine 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7aSvDzxU2
shone brightly into the living room giving it a wonderful warm feeling. 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZHtQ80qrK
And Leo was here standing with the most beautiful woman he had ever met.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ONdisFOa3
Her beautiful glowing face was too irresistible to look away from. Her 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBEKrphj9A
soft brown eyes looked up at him and Leo couldn't stop staring back. He 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHgAlCX3rW
bent down closer to give Carly a light kiss on her beautiful lips.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyuM6Sd59fE
"You're right," said Leo after he pulled away from her lips. "We should enjoy this moment while we can."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi393Wn44gr
"Mmmm, so what do you suggest we do then?" Carly asked as she bit her lower lip playfully.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2BfdKWHSDl
"Well, everyone is still asleep, so, we can have a few minutes to ourselves. Come up to my room."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqAWBqM2JK
"Wait, I come up to your room? Won't your mother find us?"1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvGCKnaj1v
"Don't tell me you're afraid of her," Leo almost laughed.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6pqfUaGjq
"I'm not scared," said Carly almost pouting her lips. "She looks like one heck of a drama queen."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HSlxT5rFN
"She is, actually," said1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lW9gEueNu
Leo. He pulled Carly into a bear hug. "But don't worry, she won't do 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFi1YJd9BR
anything to you. You have me around."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEC7NhtzSyb
"I know," Carly smiled. "Let's go to your room. We have a lot to talk about."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJd5Vi62g2D
"Oh really?" Leo looked down at Carly. "What is it we have to talk about?"1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jfg4iL1SS
Before Carly could say 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xntigXKgW
anything, they heard a loud thud, like something had dropped to the 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWE7KVE0IK
floor. Then they heard someone faintly mourn out in pain.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy05JQT7dEs
"What was that?" Leo asked.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCg8tRPgSn7
"Oh, my gosh, Angel," said Carly as she ran down the hall towards Angel's room and Leo quickly followed behind her.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtI4hw1iaK
Carly got to Angel's 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxCjj8sf17
room first and when she burged into the room, she found Angel lying down1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgfg8N53yS
on the floor close to her bed whining in pain. Carly quickly ran to her1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWnUnIzxYc
sister's aid and that's when Leo had finally appeared at the door.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDKqdP3UYm
"Don't worry, Angel, I'm here," said Carly as she slowly lifted Angel and helped her up on the bed.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ztZs2mHdU
"What happened? Are you alright?" Carly asked.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVVA1zqzsa
"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."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9q5SE75PY
"You know you're not 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFpmuKlCuu
okay, but instead you still want to do things on your own without asking1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjX4FCIaSbW
for help. You never change, Angel."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQjzUXQARU
"I'm okay as you can see. And by the way, thanks."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahvUPXfW1C
"Well, since you're awake, can I make you a cup of tea?"1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DZE6XAKbm
"No thanks, I'm fine."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTVapxcQ6q
Angel went on to look at1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWZwT7X87x
the door and saw Leo standing there. She stared at him for a moment and1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROCepX1aXo
then she went on to stare at Carly.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOEBLqB5lu
"And why are you up so early? Do you have a lecture to attend to today?" Angel asked.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZp2evNMxb
Carly paused as she 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHG34YOcrj
looked at her sister and then at Leo. She went back to facing her sister1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83b90ox6SE
and before she could say anything, Amanda appeared by the door behind 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1rrxgcvqX
Leo.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnksohFxwb
"What happened in here?" Amanda asked. "I thought I heard something fall."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6yybndej0
"Ah, yes," said Carly, 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdbwaVSCsh
feeling relieved that Amanda had arrived. "Angel here was trying to get 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeHkdHLTov
something but ended up on the floor. Nothing to worry about. She's not 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzoN9HhNT2
hurt or anything."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40z9uM14Pm
"May you please drag me 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4GAFrIoG7
in, Leo?" Amanda asked her grandson and Leo obediently obliged and 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaF71rbTdVt
pushed his grandmother's wheelchair into the room.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfatpc5kT4Z
"Are you alright, dear?" Amanda asked Angel.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkC3D0rhWe
"Just like Carly said, 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHDLVkQRfx
I'm fine," said Angel, giving Amanda a little smile. When she looked up 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4ZNZRULZa
at Leo, she almost scowled at him.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfLozu1L7e
"That's good, but don't do that again. Who knows what might happen. Thank goodness Carly and Leo came just in time."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmw4Lz45on
The room soon had an 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0hLXeN3LL
awkward feeling. Amanda couldn't feel it, but Angel, Carly and Leo 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRKPInVWSf
could. Angel just continued to stare at Amanda trying to hide the 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdmfoo8eF2
awkwardness.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgRXDXxKDQ
"If you need me, grandma, I'll be in my room," said Leo.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnclp4Hluiy
"Okay, dear. You and I need to talk over some things. Let's meet after breakfast."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eherhmHIG
"Sure."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdolJRaXtjm
Leo stared at Carly 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhE7U5skySF
before he left. He wanted to smile at her, but he could feel Angel's 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJIud4QoJR
eyes on him, stabbing him like daggers. He quickly left the room to 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzM5Zt03nB6
avoid any more problems.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMp0YZjnU2
"I was about to go and make a cup of tea," said Carly.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0U9mlOd43g
"I don't want....." started Angel but Amanda soon stepped in.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DDTOKy2vI
"Tea would be lovely, 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgjPMrsNRy
dear," said Amanda giving Carly a smile. "It's sad that it's too early 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpd6riAT6m
in the morning for the helpers to be up and about in the kitchen. They 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2W7O6sQ9HS
could have helped you."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAIW4uQsmyg
"Not to worry, I can find my way around," said Carly.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQFj2JUprK
"Good, Angel and I will be waiting."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvGRpv6XTi
Carly gladly smiled at 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxYrMT1YSI
Amanda and quickly made a beeline to the door and closed it behind her. 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIiZBIuOkC
Angel continued to stare at the door. She couldn't help but wonder why 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡncUJydRmfk
Carly was up so early. She was never this early. Or maybe it's because 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCx7Nj3SqK
she didn't have anywhere to go last night?1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqZsyGvbbw
And Leo? It was strange 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8aupPfSGo
that both of them were awake at the same time. Could it be that they 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWFaZGn6ps
were together? Angel couldn't stop thinking about the two of them 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipcoMZTAcZ
together in each other's arms. It almost made her sick.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMP5lA4dyOK
"They were definitely together, no doubt about that," Angel thought to herself.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90HVL1Jbjj
"Are you alright, dear?" Amanda asked.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkRlAESwCu2
"I am, you don't have to worry about me," Angel replied.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8jX9emyZG
"What were you planning to do that made you fall?"1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPK2lonWHhD
"I was trying to reach out for something and I completely forgot that my legs weren't completely healed."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyIvJLSQTR
"I understand. But tell me, did you sleep well, last night?"1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qF26C9ABc
"I did, Amanda, thanks for asking."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qD0EFZ1ut
While Amanda and Angel 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXrayg1bDX
continued to chat, Carly was in the kitchen preparing tea. Just as she 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPssCxmQpFv
found the tea leaves and put them in the two white teacups, Leo appeared1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1bZTsH8ET
at the door.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRdZPcf97H
"Hey," said Leo as he came in.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInT926zE6A
"Hey," said Carly as she gave him a smile. "Sorry for what happened earlier."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdbfcW0li4
"With your sister? I know she ruined our little moment. It's like she knew you and I were together."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhcmzlwSaX
"No, she didn't." Carly 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo38IrpdHlU
went over to the electric kettle that had already boiled the water and 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBYflUYPp3
poured the water into the teacups. "And besides, you shouldn't have 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQS2ii9pYch
followed me to her room. The way she looked at the both of us when you 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLERoyh5dPr
appeared, she probably knows that we were together."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7GjvKBvZw
"I don't care about 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzslyttFN0z
that." Leo came over to Carly and wrapped his arms around her waist from1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4qTU4jkfX
the back. "She can think all she wants. She knows my feelings for you 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlPmppjwXT
are real."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76pXFW5PUn
Carly smiled and she 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlIadnV0Mj
loved the feeling of Leo's arms around her. She felt so safe and secure 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPKjQHvE45
that she didn't want him to let her go.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6FYVG4olc
She quickly turned 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Lueu1XoAQ
around to face him and said, "as much as Angel knows, the rest of the 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkgeDWvowx
people here don't. And do you know what would happen if they find out? 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQ9eZMCGRo
They would freak out."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbE3x5vHTo
"Especially my mum," said Leo rolling his eyes.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjuoGdxcts
"Yes." Carly gave him a smile. "Especially your mum."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwoxbShWwm
Leo continued to look 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxedIVHTl1
down at Carly and he couldn't help but bend over and kiss her on the 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCxN3hNmFt
cheek. Carly couldn't help but blush as she playfully pushed him away.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYCm9Thkb0
"I've to go and take tea for my sister and your grandmother."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKMVk8Pcky
"Wait," said Leo as he made his way over to her again, "may I just give you a little......"1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVT9bhfZJM
"What's going on here?"1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUyITT01emO
Leo and Carly almost 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXUA1MFj90
jumped in fright as they turned towards the door and standing there in a1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Ah2BF88st
blue nightgown, was Mrs McDonell. She looked over at Carly and Leo with1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKT7aqkXTV
an eyebrow raised. The two stood a few feet apart from each other.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWKFb230Lt
"I asked a question and I demand an answer," she said. "What's going on here?"1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDU7rHaDys
"Nothing, nothing is going on, Mrs McDonell," Carly replied. "I was only preparing tea."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0EXX0NN3nA
"Tea for who?" Mrs McDonell folded her arms.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswv1LpJIeN
"For Amanda and Angel."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡih1X9v5nUW
"They are both awake?"1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvdYNw7mM5
"Yes, they are. They are in Angel's room right now."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOhutu9pbw
Mrs McDonell looked at 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEprv2qlOh
Carly, then at her son, then back at Carly again. She couldn't figure 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWaoCXIGfv
out why the two of them were here together, alone. She just brushed it 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeXt6BgJAG
off.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAes8KMEeC
"Fine, take their tea," said Mrs McDonell.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQiDgjgbDy
Carly took the tray 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhFRfZEm8y
where the teacups lay and put the teaspoons and bowl of sugar on the 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7MthzQ65E
tray. She quickly made her way past Leo and past his mother standing by 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHX86HZtc69
the door. Mrs McDonell looked on at Carly as she disappeared round the 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0qd2lOpZI
corner.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8a9KBjjUNZ
"Mmmm," Mrs McDonell looked at her son. "She's has a great body. Even through her nightgown, I can make out her figure."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoSUa1MkWL
Leo shook his head at his mother. "You're so unbelievable," he said.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡja72Tw89R7
"What did I do now? I'm just trying to make conversation with you. I never saw you when you came back last night."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfcJ32BUc3
"I don't want to talk, mum. Maybe later."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vyv7L0dXi
Leo made his way to the 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhj8hAgaeD
kitchen door, bypassing his mother. Mrs McDonell could only sigh as she 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtaGQ5VLRP
thought of how she was going to handle Leo.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHsxKjKfld
By seven, almost 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXwC321OR2i
everyone was awake and the house help were now up and about getting the 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6q6sSooAkd
place cleaned up. Breakfast was already being made in the kitchen and 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydE61Dp7ZZ
the lovely smell was intoxicating.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡut9pYhZolv
"Oh, my, I'm so hungry,"1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jIjc17suP
said Oliver as he came down the stairs with his backpack. He quickly 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0FZHHvxUk
dropped his bag by the foyer so that he would just grab it when it was 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PA4K2RejF
time to go to school.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwudavDyvU2
He quickly rushed over to the dinning area and found one of the helpers setting the table for breakfast.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4fZHk47xj
"Morning, Oliver," came Leo as he entered the dinning room. "Did the smell of food drag you here?"1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA88gOJKYxC
"Yep," Oliver replied as he took his seat at the table. "Looks like it dragged you here too."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXfezmA21m
"Ya, it did." Leo soon came to sit right next to him.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyG8nql5e1L
"Morning, you two," came Diana as she came over and gave Oliver a peck on the cheek.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7deM8kOPMm
"Morning, mum," said Oliver.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUkBYwQhx7
"Morning, aunt," said Leo.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBP2apH4M7q
"What happened yesterday, Leo?" Diana asked as she sat opposite her son. "You weren't around for supper?"1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdy77pI06iU
"I fell asleep," he replied. "I was so exhausted."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8JiYXITMlT
"I figured." Diana gave her nephew a smile as she poured a glass of orange juice.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUo7l0Ollim
Bacon, sausage, friuts, 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2egTLUPZEc
eggs, toast and delicious muffins were soon served on the table. Leo and1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlDizDDTzF
his cousin couldn't help but water at the delicious food in front of 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUUF0tNcNG
them.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE07onkeESK
"I can't wait to get all of this into my mouth," said Oliver.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8TYXDelmo
"Hey, are you going to leave some for me?" came Carly as she stepped into the dinning area.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgffKY1OU1p
"Of course we were," said Diana. "The boys can't eat all this by themselves."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNuRZPF3dY3
"We definitely can, right, Leo?" Oliver asked.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbTHTSY1z9
"Right," Leo replied.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RhQDC71Yg
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.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyc4yJSA5r
Just as they were about 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9g1eX75piA
to eat, Mr McDonell came in and settled down after giving his morning 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVL1bLx28UY
greetings at the head of the table. As usual every morning, there was a 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuSluY5uDj
newspaper at the table ready for him to be read.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3afNb5J0q
"Will you be going early to the office, Leo?" Mr McDonald asked as he poured himself a cup of coffee.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AL1xyHQnI
"No, I'll be there a little late, dad," Leo replied.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWm0sPOxvL
"Oh, goodness, me," came Amanda's voice. "Looks like almost everyone is here for breakfast."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Bk9SCb6ec
Before Leo could reply 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OQlrnkPeF
that not everyone was here, he turned on his chair and saw his grandma 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ198Fzqxqoj
being wheeled in by one of the helpers and Eric with Angel. He quickly 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vFFKubHqG
looked away feeling irritated.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKAMnpA6b2
"Morning, everyone," said Amanda cheerfully as she was placed right next to Leo.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0bvkWQgfv
Everyone else on the 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSqzUpSYmX
table said good morning to her. Angel also greeted everyone as well as 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpq5mk8R7YE
she settled on the other side of the table with Eric. Everyone replied, 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGuZKO7W3xy
except Leo.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFR5lKRooV
"This is just lovely," 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOEgtJ2u2k
said Amanda. "Usually at breakfast we are never gathered together like 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubn7kdeOUB
this. Most of the time, we're all doing our own things and people leave 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSdWE0q1vZ
really early."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Cqr0M6IIU
"That's true, mum," said Mr McDonell. "I was also thinking the same thing."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjQhDcpAhh
"Your wife isn't here, 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCit8Ip5Mq
though, but I'm not worried about her." Amanda gave a bright smile. 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPO0YQRldz
"It's good to see everyone of you all here in the morning."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3K9AzP6rUP
"I wonder why this has happened today," said Eric.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEJui7H09X
"I think it's because of our important guests," said Amanda as the helper beside her served her breakfast on a plate.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvdIYdIVVX
Angel almost spelt the 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wmJ5T3sFI
juice she was pouring into her glass but steadied her hand just in time.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOE1E1hXaZ
Leo almost choked on his toast. Their eyes somehow fell upon each other1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrs1QK2Pfg
and they quickly looked away. Angel put down the jug of juice and Leo 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BPkzrvOXF
just ran a hand through his hair.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVFzRh50Uo
"Here, let me serve you," said Eric as he poured the juice in Angel's glass.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6DfOuHHgU
"Thanks, Eric," said Angel, giving him a smile.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hqIFQzHEU
"A doctor is coming to check up on you, Angel," said Mr McDonell. "He's our family doctor."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4w9EZtbH3
"Oh, no, there is no need for that, Mr McDonell," said Angel.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDGNXCM66F
"Well, someone has to check up on you from time to time. It's no big deal. It's for your own good."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdc2zTGev2A
"You should listen to him, dear," said Amanda. "You aren't going to be the only one getting a medical checkup today."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7o5FvZh0O
Angel smiled at Amanda and ate her breakfast. Everyone else went on happily with their meal.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheHmxlgOJL
As soon as Oliver was done, he got up from the table.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWWAxGJM03
"Have to go to school," he said.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOFqEKRYRS
"Okay, have a nice day, Oliver," said Angel.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVg6IA1PeV
Oliver came round the 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0eQeNiOyJ
table to where Angel sat and gave her a hug from behind. Angel gave a 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDn9Pv3nB3P
heartfelt laugh. Leo just rolled his eyes at her. He was so not liking 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOXTKBSmMg
what was happening in front of him. Her laugh felt so irritating to his 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66qj08HgaW
ears.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFSFfZsB7B
"You too," said Oliver as he smiled and went over to hug his mum and soon ran out of the dinning room.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ250yi0qBgb
"So adorable," said Carly.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4enadbLcuf
"He's adorable when he wants to be and annoying when you least expect it," said Eric.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbPPZUOKug
"That's not true," said Diana. "My Oliver is not like that."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4d5oC0kh9k
Eric playfully rolled his eyes. "Then you don't know your own son at all."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeRlPq5y3h
"And you think I don't know you? You playboy."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5SKnfakt1G
Eric looked at his mother giving her the sign to keep quiet. "Mum....are you seriously saying that in front of Angel right now?"1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXMAKVxjR4
"I don't mind," said Angel as she looked like she would burst out laughing.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtmSDUBlia
"Well, I do."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTO9wqooCOw
"Enough," said Diana. "You're running late for work."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVHbuBe80e
"Seriously, mum?" Eric looked at her.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9OmClJ7yn
"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."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBUBp7XsbP
"Okay, uncle," said Eric as he got his last piece of toast and bit it and then stood up.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIe2HPwRrU
"I'll find you in the 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKPw3t64cV
car," said Mr McDonell as he also stood up from his chair. "I'll go get 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwh9Sv4dzH
my briefcase." He soon went out of the dining room.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMjaermDrfW
"Are you coming with us, Leo?" Eric asked.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLUfEAT3aDr
"No, I'll find you at the office later," Leo answered.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnZOvs1xde
"Yes," said Amanda. "He and I have to have a little chat before he leaves."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoaiG4HlDr3
"Okay. Angel," Eric looked over at Angel and patted her head. "I'll see you when I get back from work."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bQXxa9NrE
"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.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQZRNLDXbI
Eric didn't say anything but smiled at her and said goodbye to everyone else on the table and left the dining room.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHmFbXhvb6
"I also have a lot of work to do at the beauty parlour today," said Diana as she also finished her breakfast.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Ki0jHJKDu
"You work at the beauty parlour, aunt?" Carly asked with so much excitement.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxxoVwJokY
"I own it, my dear," Diana answered with a smile. "Would you like to join me and see the place?"1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhSILhJ08w
Before Carly could 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡON2MEioSE4
reply, she looked over at her sister who was looking at her breakfast. 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2tl8CGCXO
She hadn't finished half way and she didn't seem the least bit 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Bp8v3V77c
interested about what her sister was up to.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkyezCBd3a
"I'll join you," said 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ONzODLkfo
Carly. "It's Friday today and I don't think I'm in the mood for lectures1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF151piPKzR
after what happened. I need to take my mind off things."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlVN67PAxB
"Perfect," said Diana as she stood up from her seat. "I'll go see if Bertha is willing to go with us."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7uUf3fONP
"I'll go get ready," 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYB2zy4l0v
said Carly as the two ladies quickly left the table. Angel gave Carly a 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVW0b9kVNS
weird look and shook her head. Carly was definitely something else at 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbexjZI8R5
times.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5w7M83nAV
"Women and their beauty," said Amanda as she shook her head.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51NBTTlPSk
There were now the three of them at the table. Amanda, Angel and Leo.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTbFffBJBt
"That only leaves the three of us," said Amanda excitedly. "This is just what I needed."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZUm5cUu2K
The last thing Leo 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KVD3ZpFm1
needed was to be in the same room with Angel and Angel also felt the 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfaj5JfswKh
same way. For the both of them, this was extremely awful.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8oIXtQtBJ
"You know I'll need to be at work earlier in the day, grandma," said Leo as he looked at Amanda.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyMFYmUUEC
"Of course, I know, you silly boy," said Amanda as she playfully pinched Leo's cheek. "Remember, you and I need to talk."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAK0BkDCXmh
"Oww, grandma!" Leo responded as he held his pinched cheek.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0NpJgjSx9
"If you want to talk right now, I'll leave you two, then," said Angel as she started to roll her wheelchair back.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTKQCcKfkB
"Not so fast, dear," said Amanda. "You aren't going anywhere. I need to talk to the both of you."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9MOubDjikW
"Huh?" Angel and Leo said at the same time with confused looks on their faces.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVcX7VMGBP
"Yes. It's really 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UAHKaCZlj
important that I speak to you both. Don't be mad. We really have to talk1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJrKsEuedg
and I lied that I only had to talk to Leo so that he can stay for a 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCfVpyt47U
while. I know the last thing you want is for me to bother you around 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Wj6XQga1t
since I'm so old."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtW31lMknZ3
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.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3p1PoDwSDa
"Okay, then," Angel agreed first. "I'm willing to listen, Amanda.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11CMfBfbuo
"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?"1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyWcd5BwH5
Leo sighed. He looked 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNrKkPQNcF
over at Angel who looked like she would cut his neck with a butter knife1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaECkEkwhsj
that laid right next to her on the table. He also threw her a look but 1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFIER5s9wp
quickly changed it when he turned to face his grandmother.1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwwIxmJ8zm
"Okay, grandma," he said. "I'll listen."1252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUIhqmF0Xf
"Good," said Amanda with a bright smile on her face. "Let's go to the patio."
