The phone alarm woke Leo775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrA261PJKT4
up with a start and he sat up on his bed. He got his phone that laid on775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1X5NjqefL
top of the drawer close to the bed and switched off the alarm. He was 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVSH21F56Q
shocked when he looked at the time on his phone. It was morning and Leo 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxz1I8sKYN
was still in his clothes he had worn yesterday. He must have been so 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHxdQtSLjn
worked up last night that he had even forgotten to have supper with the 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡii3rYToogr
rest of the family. He still wondered how he had fallen asleep all of 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdP4zbGq7v
the sudden. He just scowled at himself as he ran a hand through his 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiACuf6psHW
scruffy blonde hair and he got out of bed to take a shower.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwNQoe9Ars
After taking a shower, 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QEgiLH2jX
he picked out some casual clothes from his closet since he wasn't in the775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5jHNaSUV8
mood for going early to work. He wore a blue golf shirt and a pair of 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkyLAd51vt
cream coloured chinos. He combed his hair back and he looked as neat as 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXnxalATDN
ever. 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMiwvvPjnnz
He soon went out of his 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWg9v2Ll4eA
room to take a walk around the house since it was just the early hours 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqEbbXakTBV
of the morning and almost everyone in the house was still asleep. He was775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RGL8nZVMi
heading towards the living room when he felt someone coming from behind775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0qiElxqy1
and wrap their arms around him. From the scent, Leo could easily tell 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCOt2Cv4I5
who it was. He turned around to face Carly who was beaming happily at 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIhHJPrpt0
him.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8e6npmabk
"Well, you're one early bird," said Carly, her smile as wide as ever. 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGdsCKTTAG
"And aren't you supposed to be somewhere?" Leo asked as he wrapped his arms around Carly's waist and pulled her close.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ333eyFKUMD
"Don't ruin the mood by 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0eErIWaBOB
telling me to go for lectures," Carly tugged at Leo's collar playfully. 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ovX18PL8q
"Let's just try to enjoy the moment."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3RxJoyKnX
Leo smiled as he 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLi39fQft3e
considered what Carly said. It was a beautiful morning and the sunshine 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpqF0yV4Vp
shone brightly into the living room giving it a wonderful warm feeling. 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUdRPLuncD
And Leo was here standing with the most beautiful woman he had ever met.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡscjghRsOzU
Her beautiful glowing face was too irresistible to look away from. Her 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLyV8zifmY
soft brown eyes looked up at him and Leo couldn't stop staring back. He 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXu552naUj
bent down closer to give Carly a light kiss on her beautiful lips.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU83duZNuat
"You're right," said Leo after he pulled away from her lips. "We should enjoy this moment while we can."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKM94uXxaW
"Mmmm, so what do you suggest we do then?" Carly asked as she bit her lower lip playfully.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlDNgdstvB
"Well, everyone is still asleep, so, we can have a few minutes to ourselves. Come up to my room."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1feu3waW0
"Wait, I come up to your room? Won't your mother find us?"775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyF6RBh8dT
"Don't tell me you're afraid of her," Leo almost laughed.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwsj9pR2Hh
"I'm not scared," said Carly almost pouting her lips. "She looks like one heck of a drama queen."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKtSUXKnhs
"She is, actually," said775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0vo4etwFX
Leo. He pulled Carly into a bear hug. "But don't worry, she won't do 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVDzNASH2w
anything to you. You have me around."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGhla9ES7y
"I know," Carly smiled. "Let's go to your room. We have a lot to talk about."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgfPukGjLX
"Oh really?" Leo looked down at Carly. "What is it we have to talk about?"775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWV7D325vwi
Before Carly could say 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gycf5NUUn
anything, they heard a loud thud, like something had dropped to the 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHqO0HZGDgO
floor. Then they heard someone faintly mourn out in pain.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa34HuW3IOM
"What was that?" Leo asked.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhNlNucQPr
"Oh, my gosh, Angel," said Carly as she ran down the hall towards Angel's room and Leo quickly followed behind her.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8OviQaQlkh
Carly got to Angel's 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhykmXs5Ml
room first and when she burged into the room, she found Angel lying down775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrsGyYKVYa
on the floor close to her bed whining in pain. Carly quickly ran to her775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIAMCRrehC
sister's aid and that's when Leo had finally appeared at the door.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgyBu6vddy
"Don't worry, Angel, I'm here," said Carly as she slowly lifted Angel and helped her up on the bed.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7oaEbhIoe
"What happened? Are you alright?" Carly asked.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9fktgjlrn
"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."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuUN7nXEJi
"You know you're not 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugafrqlP4o
okay, but instead you still want to do things on your own without asking775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRRLrxpgMS
for help. You never change, Angel."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjzlZNBfp5
"I'm okay as you can see. And by the way, thanks."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2kB3yrT3MN
"Well, since you're awake, can I make you a cup of tea?"775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XRxiBb5ls
"No thanks, I'm fine."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoAkDZvTOh
Angel went on to look at775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdPmOTIj1a
the door and saw Leo standing there. She stared at him for a moment and775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEeJkaRmD5j
then she went on to stare at Carly.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiIn2ColKcB
"And why are you up so early? Do you have a lecture to attend to today?" Angel asked.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0cKBDPhlu
Carly paused as she 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnBstRK0By
looked at her sister and then at Leo. She went back to facing her sister775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlan4hj4DLc
and before she could say anything, Amanda appeared by the door behind 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnwJXv4Od1
Leo.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPoW0nYEZC9
"What happened in here?" Amanda asked. "I thought I heard something fall."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4PfeW9ePM
"Ah, yes," said Carly, 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbRJeoS8E8
feeling relieved that Amanda had arrived. "Angel here was trying to get 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmifDKcu6Hi
something but ended up on the floor. Nothing to worry about. She's not 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtmhM8LGru
hurt or anything."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBrxpFtW4u
"May you please drag me 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IsnnYQ0O4
in, Leo?" Amanda asked her grandson and Leo obediently obliged and 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9jgGVeEnW
pushed his grandmother's wheelchair into the room.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqxoyLhGzR
"Are you alright, dear?" Amanda asked Angel.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOUPXI3URa
"Just like Carly said, 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6dqwWjFGa
I'm fine," said Angel, giving Amanda a little smile. When she looked up 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37IF4QXXNl
at Leo, she almost scowled at him.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7a99xNDhgT
"That's good, but don't do that again. Who knows what might happen. Thank goodness Carly and Leo came just in time."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoZpF56Ymo
The room soon had an 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXmsecqrdK
awkward feeling. Amanda couldn't feel it, but Angel, Carly and Leo 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeyK5TFPuN
could. Angel just continued to stare at Amanda trying to hide the 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2sHQBBWq82
awkwardness.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nvkHGrao8
"If you need me, grandma, I'll be in my room," said Leo.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GuzSiss2a
"Okay, dear. You and I need to talk over some things. Let's meet after breakfast."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYUTqGfSHO
"Sure."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQhbmDP4nU
Leo stared at Carly 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjEdrvYJON
before he left. He wanted to smile at her, but he could feel Angel's 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIAKsHDqvP
eyes on him, stabbing him like daggers. He quickly left the room to 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9NemRee7L
avoid any more problems.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpt0BRpSmP
"I was about to go and make a cup of tea," said Carly.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQIILTUgjU
"I don't want....." started Angel but Amanda soon stepped in.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUQaP4ERlQ
"Tea would be lovely, 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4paTWOZKP
dear," said Amanda giving Carly a smile. "It's sad that it's too early 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzkkWX2u69
in the morning for the helpers to be up and about in the kitchen. They 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡen45WjLhlV
could have helped you."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZkkGFiWji
"Not to worry, I can find my way around," said Carly.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgsvF7J3ij
"Good, Angel and I will be waiting."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBvtiUQAU1
Carly gladly smiled at 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDfxIpHtPU
Amanda and quickly made a beeline to the door and closed it behind her. 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCZWmWCOfW
Angel continued to stare at the door. She couldn't help but wonder why 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHevwv0lnnc
Carly was up so early. She was never this early. Or maybe it's because 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hSlbnese2
she didn't have anywhere to go last night?775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKE6cyUoyFT
And Leo? It was strange 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqtUfFBgYY
that both of them were awake at the same time. Could it be that they 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bYfPm5IMo
were together? Angel couldn't stop thinking about the two of them 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaCX1y4a18
together in each other's arms. It almost made her sick.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xVPd0c4nu
"They were definitely together, no doubt about that," Angel thought to herself.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfzPkL9VIH
"Are you alright, dear?" Amanda asked.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDX7BYg3tHZ
"I am, you don't have to worry about me," Angel replied.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0oYBaj5Cu
"What were you planning to do that made you fall?"775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DUOSvHuuP
"I was trying to reach out for something and I completely forgot that my legs weren't completely healed."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlUkE98vBQ
"I understand. But tell me, did you sleep well, last night?"775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjILx1O21zJ
"I did, Amanda, thanks for asking."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1YXgXXDM5
While Amanda and Angel 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3m0F7PKi7d
continued to chat, Carly was in the kitchen preparing tea. Just as she 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZdidqGofBb
found the tea leaves and put them in the two white teacups, Leo appeared775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOy54yNHrM
at the door.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBNOf09ydG
"Hey," said Leo as he came in.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4pThb1j9aS
"Hey," said Carly as she gave him a smile. "Sorry for what happened earlier."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj00ohRl2Cx
"With your sister? I know she ruined our little moment. It's like she knew you and I were together."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡziIa9xjfYz
"No, she didn't." Carly 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujWRufXSLd
went over to the electric kettle that had already boiled the water and 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1odCBpjEsU
poured the water into the teacups. "And besides, you shouldn't have 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5Je86mML7
followed me to her room. The way she looked at the both of us when you 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69We8d3TF0
appeared, she probably knows that we were together."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5Zu9aLWxr
"I don't care about 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZb11AO2la3
that." Leo came over to Carly and wrapped his arms around her waist from775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TWmIHPGNQ
the back. "She can think all she wants. She knows my feelings for you 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5D2lSSHbuj
are real."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfDAbCdZSX
Carly smiled and she 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtpkZYNmkv
loved the feeling of Leo's arms around her. She felt so safe and secure 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuab2eTpItr
that she didn't want him to let her go.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQmA5Nka7L
She quickly turned 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyoj861iBfz
around to face him and said, "as much as Angel knows, the rest of the 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwRmGVnsaj
people here don't. And do you know what would happen if they find out? 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkLDTz2NDf
They would freak out."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJom28z1vUJ
"Especially my mum," said Leo rolling his eyes.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAC85WJa4l2
"Yes." Carly gave him a smile. "Especially your mum."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwQIYGOgzg
Leo continued to look 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSK3PwPJ4r7
down at Carly and he couldn't help but bend over and kiss her on the 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbPwcrLsLh
cheek. Carly couldn't help but blush as she playfully pushed him away.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnq9GXnHMJ
"I've to go and take tea for my sister and your grandmother."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOyTXPFfUk
"Wait," said Leo as he made his way over to her again, "may I just give you a little......"775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbsotxu5Ou
"What's going on here?"775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDfC6Bv2Pf
Leo and Carly almost 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvT7EaUcPhz
jumped in fright as they turned towards the door and standing there in a775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUqsirqV1w
blue nightgown, was Mrs McDonell. She looked over at Carly and Leo with775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsdUyXrlwb
an eyebrow raised. The two stood a few feet apart from each other.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzpKJ0vzf8N
"I asked a question and I demand an answer," she said. "What's going on here?"775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs47UfuWRZR
"Nothing, nothing is going on, Mrs McDonell," Carly replied. "I was only preparing tea."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmy9axTG8SK
"Tea for who?" Mrs McDonell folded her arms.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDJJRAcDre
"For Amanda and Angel."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXSIiW1cuB
"They are both awake?"775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7WyjpciE9R
"Yes, they are. They are in Angel's room right now."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAxafodRNU
Mrs McDonell looked at 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiusfjGwn6R
Carly, then at her son, then back at Carly again. She couldn't figure 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9UVlnsgJ5
out why the two of them were here together, alone. She just brushed it 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsCRSz4jzQ
off.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgjF3f4205
"Fine, take their tea," said Mrs McDonell.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡweyZmIo0oC
Carly took the tray 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8DNTaKRfU
where the teacups lay and put the teaspoons and bowl of sugar on the 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7rHHu9pEwG
tray. She quickly made her way past Leo and past his mother standing by 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBxowZQ8mg
the door. Mrs McDonell looked on at Carly as she disappeared round the 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepEDfuzKfC
corner.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oJeCTxEW2
"Mmmm," Mrs McDonell looked at her son. "She's has a great body. Even through her nightgown, I can make out her figure."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3K2Y8BlaFt
Leo shook his head at his mother. "You're so unbelievable," he said.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdQvayaYNC
"What did I do now? I'm just trying to make conversation with you. I never saw you when you came back last night."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtvSMOjJju
"I don't want to talk, mum. Maybe later."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXK3uXkuhT
Leo made his way to the 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5GBJbWSYS8
kitchen door, bypassing his mother. Mrs McDonell could only sigh as she 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMT15nk2xXn
thought of how she was going to handle Leo.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgUcw07TMV
By seven, almost 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKO4VrQbrF
everyone was awake and the house help were now up and about getting the 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRto4zzC1VP
place cleaned up. Breakfast was already being made in the kitchen and 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHvIEJ588K
the lovely smell was intoxicating.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HTmNN1Y3F
"Oh, my, I'm so hungry,"775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCJGylrgoi
said Oliver as he came down the stairs with his backpack. He quickly 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07rmemPWyz
dropped his bag by the foyer so that he would just grab it when it was 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfM6er1VFg
time to go to school.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZnVryRndg
He quickly rushed over to the dinning area and found one of the helpers setting the table for breakfast.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMFOAbFEqw
"Morning, Oliver," came Leo as he entered the dinning room. "Did the smell of food drag you here?"775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDig9L3pdY
"Yep," Oliver replied as he took his seat at the table. "Looks like it dragged you here too."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacpEimKZzI
"Ya, it did." Leo soon came to sit right next to him.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2AXs1ZkM7
"Morning, you two," came Diana as she came over and gave Oliver a peck on the cheek.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2VfrBXrSxP
"Morning, mum," said Oliver.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLR9vVJUcko
"Morning, aunt," said Leo.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wGGanCeES
"What happened yesterday, Leo?" Diana asked as she sat opposite her son. "You weren't around for supper?"775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISKukOjFXA
"I fell asleep," he replied. "I was so exhausted."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2zzuuPdUj
"I figured." Diana gave her nephew a smile as she poured a glass of orange juice.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCeMesv6P6r
Bacon, sausage, friuts, 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQL8fpD7JO
eggs, toast and delicious muffins were soon served on the table. Leo and775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbg4YVWgNA1
his cousin couldn't help but water at the delicious food in front of 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlfToxH5Yv
them.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrIGpGDO2s
"I can't wait to get all of this into my mouth," said Oliver.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYZnQyej56
"Hey, are you going to leave some for me?" came Carly as she stepped into the dinning area.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhk9lXMkuCW
"Of course we were," said Diana. "The boys can't eat all this by themselves."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZ7Tpw5sK1
"We definitely can, right, Leo?" Oliver asked.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6lVgzocNw
"Right," Leo replied.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6kSersdPj
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.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAZ1GMZXJJ
Just as they were about 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbenybX99Ay
to eat, Mr McDonell came in and settled down after giving his morning 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EwTlRF07v
greetings at the head of the table. As usual every morning, there was a 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhk99VW2SVd
newspaper at the table ready for him to be read.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZXevGC0BQ
"Will you be going early to the office, Leo?" Mr McDonald asked as he poured himself a cup of coffee.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yVFLnwhJ1
"No, I'll be there a little late, dad," Leo replied.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwtWAix3Ss
"Oh, goodness, me," came Amanda's voice. "Looks like almost everyone is here for breakfast."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr40cyKRTP5
Before Leo could reply 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxH7PVvCuz
that not everyone was here, he turned on his chair and saw his grandma 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktxfWpcjtn
being wheeled in by one of the helpers and Eric with Angel. He quickly 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxF61UVSLS
looked away feeling irritated.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3kvl6bX0z
"Morning, everyone," said Amanda cheerfully as she was placed right next to Leo.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8PkjmYRPp
Everyone else on the 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOrH6tw3MO
table said good morning to her. Angel also greeted everyone as well as 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJZqCX1FsX
she settled on the other side of the table with Eric. Everyone replied, 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwh26HfJYU
except Leo.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpgDE6y2Zg
"This is just lovely," 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAWKJfdK0P
said Amanda. "Usually at breakfast we are never gathered together like 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjRzpJAlDx
this. Most of the time, we're all doing our own things and people leave 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlSY9WWDei
really early."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTuE5w2X1qj
"That's true, mum," said Mr McDonell. "I was also thinking the same thing."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzKvX3QM0A
"Your wife isn't here, 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU905qxzJgI
though, but I'm not worried about her." Amanda gave a bright smile. 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1GraDF158
"It's good to see everyone of you all here in the morning."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9kqoxUyhLI
"I wonder why this has happened today," said Eric.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkoQgGMfmoL
"I think it's because of our important guests," said Amanda as the helper beside her served her breakfast on a plate.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtM7XE2xA8
Angel almost spelt the 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblSP4muzWj
juice she was pouring into her glass but steadied her hand just in time.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RugkmjYJq
Leo almost choked on his toast. Their eyes somehow fell upon each other775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgqhsChlGJ
and they quickly looked away. Angel put down the jug of juice and Leo 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfzsFyam6O
just ran a hand through his hair.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52oF3Q0wjM
"Here, let me serve you," said Eric as he poured the juice in Angel's glass.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2IgEpd26G
"Thanks, Eric," said Angel, giving him a smile.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7UAspXSGX
"A doctor is coming to check up on you, Angel," said Mr McDonell. "He's our family doctor."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbWx4lsUV4
"Oh, no, there is no need for that, Mr McDonell," said Angel.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36CI27Z6wA
"Well, someone has to check up on you from time to time. It's no big deal. It's for your own good."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaIPMsq8pt
"You should listen to him, dear," said Amanda. "You aren't going to be the only one getting a medical checkup today."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1N7EeOEFco
Angel smiled at Amanda and ate her breakfast. Everyone else went on happily with their meal.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaAFhZyfbw
As soon as Oliver was done, he got up from the table.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptsV8zd3qP
"Have to go to school," he said.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerZVZhlpsB
"Okay, have a nice day, Oliver," said Angel.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibTmUa7dgD
Oliver came round the 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5tOKNYiJo
table to where Angel sat and gave her a hug from behind. Angel gave a 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTqlL2iG1E
heartfelt laugh. Leo just rolled his eyes at her. He was so not liking 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIiAkzn4ik
what was happening in front of him. Her laugh felt so irritating to his 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm5BEB4pEkY
ears.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9FaqmLhAr
"You too," said Oliver as he smiled and went over to hug his mum and soon ran out of the dinning room.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bDNjzEnJi
"So adorable," said Carly.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvILNCsZ25w
"He's adorable when he wants to be and annoying when you least expect it," said Eric.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNNZuEV9aO
"That's not true," said Diana. "My Oliver is not like that."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cJtrQWBxm
Eric playfully rolled his eyes. "Then you don't know your own son at all."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKOWON9mWo
"And you think I don't know you? You playboy."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5AC77YJT3M
Eric looked at his mother giving her the sign to keep quiet. "Mum....are you seriously saying that in front of Angel right now?"775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4iOVaW8qcE
"I don't mind," said Angel as she looked like she would burst out laughing.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7zIL9KTHM
"Well, I do."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKNCXM8tBN
"Enough," said Diana. "You're running late for work."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenRw8zrQtU
"Seriously, mum?" Eric looked at her.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYk20Sr15YF
"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."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFEahMFm9r
"Okay, uncle," said Eric as he got his last piece of toast and bit it and then stood up.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKUtqdwowD
"I'll find you in the 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8W0WKAcWl
car," said Mr McDonell as he also stood up from his chair. "I'll go get 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4nhlxL11q
my briefcase." He soon went out of the dining room.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQVmzXcJ16
"Are you coming with us, Leo?" Eric asked.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN407kKrnGH
"No, I'll find you at the office later," Leo answered.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xXAlO3Ohk
"Yes," said Amanda. "He and I have to have a little chat before he leaves."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpg244Npifs
"Okay. Angel," Eric looked over at Angel and patted her head. "I'll see you when I get back from work."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJliTAo295
"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.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDviMTOCesn
Eric didn't say anything but smiled at her and said goodbye to everyone else on the table and left the dining room.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYEeelczus
"I also have a lot of work to do at the beauty parlour today," said Diana as she also finished her breakfast.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfD2Y30EzZ5
"You work at the beauty parlour, aunt?" Carly asked with so much excitement.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNucxGTfWN
"I own it, my dear," Diana answered with a smile. "Would you like to join me and see the place?"775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVqNZgWqoz
Before Carly could 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVsSWMBAnZ
reply, she looked over at her sister who was looking at her breakfast. 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2S3qythMc
She hadn't finished half way and she didn't seem the least bit 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPE7ipv8tTB
interested about what her sister was up to.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZcE84HEnL
"I'll join you," said 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTLsj4RiSG
Carly. "It's Friday today and I don't think I'm in the mood for lectures775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrj1rxptbPM
after what happened. I need to take my mind off things."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCYOB2i2ZD
"Perfect," said Diana as she stood up from her seat. "I'll go see if Bertha is willing to go with us."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSWRctXKCk
"I'll go get ready," 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0YswtDcp7
said Carly as the two ladies quickly left the table. Angel gave Carly a 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyZNWN9456
weird look and shook her head. Carly was definitely something else at 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqYEaRnwJb
times.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmAHJySaKy
"Women and their beauty," said Amanda as she shook her head.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3FThbpieC
There were now the three of them at the table. Amanda, Angel and Leo.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYSN4Taru9
"That only leaves the three of us," said Amanda excitedly. "This is just what I needed."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rHHqB7wxv
The last thing Leo 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1hjQXvX05
needed was to be in the same room with Angel and Angel also felt the 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIuXfkaACL
same way. For the both of them, this was extremely awful.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aIYSBu4TL
"You know I'll need to be at work earlier in the day, grandma," said Leo as he looked at Amanda.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbznDGxe6um
"Of course, I know, you silly boy," said Amanda as she playfully pinched Leo's cheek. "Remember, you and I need to talk."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5gwNBP5jU
"Oww, grandma!" Leo responded as he held his pinched cheek.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSkSDxoRNt
"If you want to talk right now, I'll leave you two, then," said Angel as she started to roll her wheelchair back.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjOQaoey4W
"Not so fast, dear," said Amanda. "You aren't going anywhere. I need to talk to the both of you."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXboLVuLGw
"Huh?" Angel and Leo said at the same time with confused looks on their faces.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVGJuTFILO
"Yes. It's really 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzH68y5Xuo
important that I speak to you both. Don't be mad. We really have to talk775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWuGyxg90b
and I lied that I only had to talk to Leo so that he can stay for a 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYt5StM0zU
while. I know the last thing you want is for me to bother you around 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwZWiJf5Q7
since I'm so old."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGFhcU6hWM
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.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojIg49ygeH
"Okay, then," Angel agreed first. "I'm willing to listen, Amanda.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoPgcic8Iw
"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?"775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRv9az6l53z
Leo sighed. He looked 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPXdATP5et
over at Angel who looked like she would cut his neck with a butter knife775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMbxox7ov8
that laid right next to her on the table. He also threw her a look but 775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwry9szJjB
quickly changed it when he turned to face his grandmother.775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4RQ9rwN1r
"Okay, grandma," he said. "I'll listen."775Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMQZStQsa0
"Good," said Amanda with a bright smile on her face. "Let's go to the patio."
