The phone alarm woke Leo517Please respect copyright.PENANAsi0KrLKV1x
up with a start and he sat up on his bed. He got his phone that laid on517Please respect copyright.PENANAlrv638f6Lb
top of the drawer close to the bed and switched off the alarm. He was 517Please respect copyright.PENANA8ELI7BiVfO
shocked when he looked at the time on his phone. It was morning and Leo 517Please respect copyright.PENANAKcuPwVDtO8
was still in his clothes he had worn yesterday. He must have been so 517Please respect copyright.PENANAUTmUSUNcO9
worked up last night that he had even forgotten to have supper with the 517Please respect copyright.PENANAddVpTep25D
rest of the family. He still wondered how he had fallen asleep all of 517Please respect copyright.PENANAMuATyPKCrM
the sudden. He just scowled at himself as he ran a hand through his 517Please respect copyright.PENANAFAuFvGjsha
scruffy blonde hair and he got out of bed to take a shower.517Please respect copyright.PENANAzhZAeF4QeO
After taking a shower, 517Please respect copyright.PENANAEtAPQdlozw
he picked out some casual clothes from his closet since he wasn't in the517Please respect copyright.PENANABgJSpLOiYv
mood for going early to work. He wore a blue golf shirt and a pair of 517Please respect copyright.PENANApq6FNX0P5i
cream coloured chinos. He combed his hair back and he looked as neat as 517Please respect copyright.PENANAN0mHbyMIM3
ever. 517Please respect copyright.PENANADtEaxSrhFp
He soon went out of his 517Please respect copyright.PENANA8n1BPRjHza
room to take a walk around the house since it was just the early hours 517Please respect copyright.PENANA4l4ndXbVcA
of the morning and almost everyone in the house was still asleep. He was517Please respect copyright.PENANAEuowEiJQtW
heading towards the living room when he felt someone coming from behind517Please respect copyright.PENANAjDHKwq6mPr
and wrap their arms around him. From the scent, Leo could easily tell 517Please respect copyright.PENANAFpOTlYjI69
who it was. He turned around to face Carly who was beaming happily at 517Please respect copyright.PENANATWg6CKxOSm
him.517Please respect copyright.PENANAib8EhAwQNg
"Well, you're one early bird," said Carly, her smile as wide as ever. 517Please respect copyright.PENANABMHAvcS81i
"And aren't you supposed to be somewhere?" Leo asked as he wrapped his arms around Carly's waist and pulled her close.517Please respect copyright.PENANAdrI4gCIqLS
"Don't ruin the mood by 517Please respect copyright.PENANAC5r5vSQMWl
telling me to go for lectures," Carly tugged at Leo's collar playfully. 517Please respect copyright.PENANAcW6f9G7z9J
"Let's just try to enjoy the moment."517Please respect copyright.PENANAbaqMbbIq00
Leo smiled as he 517Please respect copyright.PENANAeTBnwdDctM
considered what Carly said. It was a beautiful morning and the sunshine 517Please respect copyright.PENANA8UF8wbQryD
shone brightly into the living room giving it a wonderful warm feeling. 517Please respect copyright.PENANAwgooOmzTZF
And Leo was here standing with the most beautiful woman he had ever met.517Please respect copyright.PENANActDejzSkks
Her beautiful glowing face was too irresistible to look away from. Her 517Please respect copyright.PENANAKCfCzGchin
soft brown eyes looked up at him and Leo couldn't stop staring back. He 517Please respect copyright.PENANAV8FFzlXPvf
bent down closer to give Carly a light kiss on her beautiful lips.517Please respect copyright.PENANAq36lMvQBp2
"You're right," said Leo after he pulled away from her lips. "We should enjoy this moment while we can."517Please respect copyright.PENANArnfnrCAG52
"Mmmm, so what do you suggest we do then?" Carly asked as she bit her lower lip playfully.517Please respect copyright.PENANAzJ2QU9LCM8
"Well, everyone is still asleep, so, we can have a few minutes to ourselves. Come up to my room."517Please respect copyright.PENANAzWIcIdR8Jq
"Wait, I come up to your room? Won't your mother find us?"517Please respect copyright.PENANAnijFmewbjj
"Don't tell me you're afraid of her," Leo almost laughed.517Please respect copyright.PENANAKplNNJohsZ
"I'm not scared," said Carly almost pouting her lips. "She looks like one heck of a drama queen."517Please respect copyright.PENANA9z1j22Xr3e
"She is, actually," said517Please respect copyright.PENANAybzv6BU2PG
Leo. He pulled Carly into a bear hug. "But don't worry, she won't do 517Please respect copyright.PENANAtkDipFWM1f
anything to you. You have me around."517Please respect copyright.PENANAgBhxJBc3Zl
"I know," Carly smiled. "Let's go to your room. We have a lot to talk about."517Please respect copyright.PENANATjs8BqhwZB
"Oh really?" Leo looked down at Carly. "What is it we have to talk about?"517Please respect copyright.PENANAuupyhYDBoF
Before Carly could say 517Please respect copyright.PENANALMfn45zxms
anything, they heard a loud thud, like something had dropped to the 517Please respect copyright.PENANAgfGPqfLkCr
floor. Then they heard someone faintly mourn out in pain.517Please respect copyright.PENANA2HR6Og6XIL
"What was that?" Leo asked.517Please respect copyright.PENANA6Xt8PYr4go
"Oh, my gosh, Angel," said Carly as she ran down the hall towards Angel's room and Leo quickly followed behind her.517Please respect copyright.PENANA8BWVgFw9rv
Carly got to Angel's 517Please respect copyright.PENANAAVfMdlxrDJ
room first and when she burged into the room, she found Angel lying down517Please respect copyright.PENANAGHSVvaT98C
on the floor close to her bed whining in pain. Carly quickly ran to her517Please respect copyright.PENANA9yjEvj6vu0
sister's aid and that's when Leo had finally appeared at the door.517Please respect copyright.PENANAebWRlC8lcw
"Don't worry, Angel, I'm here," said Carly as she slowly lifted Angel and helped her up on the bed.517Please respect copyright.PENANAdeeeoUf8H4
"What happened? Are you alright?" Carly asked.517Please respect copyright.PENANAeEqHO7icQW
"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."517Please respect copyright.PENANAd89qN9I7Wd
"You know you're not 517Please respect copyright.PENANAnGYeK3X1Sb
okay, but instead you still want to do things on your own without asking517Please respect copyright.PENANAfTdX0wAf4i
for help. You never change, Angel."517Please respect copyright.PENANAeejLXt2XJR
"I'm okay as you can see. And by the way, thanks."517Please respect copyright.PENANAaGleYZU0Ru
"Well, since you're awake, can I make you a cup of tea?"517Please respect copyright.PENANAhvRyE6BD8s
"No thanks, I'm fine."517Please respect copyright.PENANAVSkruOkpqR
Angel went on to look at517Please respect copyright.PENANAm5UfEypLlj
the door and saw Leo standing there. She stared at him for a moment and517Please respect copyright.PENANA9CBejIBYUI
then she went on to stare at Carly.517Please respect copyright.PENANAf8EbZPn8TL
"And why are you up so early? Do you have a lecture to attend to today?" Angel asked.517Please respect copyright.PENANAcn1x5QE9dP
Carly paused as she 517Please respect copyright.PENANAb5fDCAhWx4
looked at her sister and then at Leo. She went back to facing her sister517Please respect copyright.PENANARHeWgn1sSf
and before she could say anything, Amanda appeared by the door behind 517Please respect copyright.PENANAgDMqYNb011
Leo.517Please respect copyright.PENANAcTi9oGDOQI
"What happened in here?" Amanda asked. "I thought I heard something fall."517Please respect copyright.PENANAsu6AtiavwV
"Ah, yes," said Carly, 517Please respect copyright.PENANAfYfnm1r5PS
feeling relieved that Amanda had arrived. "Angel here was trying to get 517Please respect copyright.PENANA56x9ZEqurL
something but ended up on the floor. Nothing to worry about. She's not 517Please respect copyright.PENANAmKKjDP1ylq
hurt or anything."517Please respect copyright.PENANAbfNBiMVsnP
"May you please drag me 517Please respect copyright.PENANAQQlB6tT2bz
in, Leo?" Amanda asked her grandson and Leo obediently obliged and 517Please respect copyright.PENANAu8DhHel4Cx
pushed his grandmother's wheelchair into the room.517Please respect copyright.PENANAeHmoXjoG8a
"Are you alright, dear?" Amanda asked Angel.517Please respect copyright.PENANAT66pYeFnBv
"Just like Carly said, 517Please respect copyright.PENANAnDVVhhlL2q
I'm fine," said Angel, giving Amanda a little smile. When she looked up 517Please respect copyright.PENANAHM0aDlewIv
at Leo, she almost scowled at him.517Please respect copyright.PENANAuPYqVb5DOC
"That's good, but don't do that again. Who knows what might happen. Thank goodness Carly and Leo came just in time."517Please respect copyright.PENANAI3i5O9I7Wl
The room soon had an 517Please respect copyright.PENANAwSHabEmnY5
awkward feeling. Amanda couldn't feel it, but Angel, Carly and Leo 517Please respect copyright.PENANAd2KAEWanJS
could. Angel just continued to stare at Amanda trying to hide the 517Please respect copyright.PENANA22NkobLKSP
awkwardness.517Please respect copyright.PENANAX3GyVRT0nL
"If you need me, grandma, I'll be in my room," said Leo.517Please respect copyright.PENANAmee3E140fI
"Okay, dear. You and I need to talk over some things. Let's meet after breakfast."517Please respect copyright.PENANAcACIAlnDug
"Sure."517Please respect copyright.PENANATPqLb99WfX
Leo stared at Carly 517Please respect copyright.PENANA8n4c1BHgJs
before he left. He wanted to smile at her, but he could feel Angel's 517Please respect copyright.PENANA51JZUSM5cs
eyes on him, stabbing him like daggers. He quickly left the room to 517Please respect copyright.PENANAZhLrAhsMVs
avoid any more problems.517Please respect copyright.PENANA7p3iHBXVXl
"I was about to go and make a cup of tea," said Carly.517Please respect copyright.PENANA86gU74jfa4
"I don't want....." started Angel but Amanda soon stepped in.517Please respect copyright.PENANAcuH3iTDgUC
"Tea would be lovely, 517Please respect copyright.PENANAA108qSs2qa
dear," said Amanda giving Carly a smile. "It's sad that it's too early 517Please respect copyright.PENANAEMLyO4pzBo
in the morning for the helpers to be up and about in the kitchen. They 517Please respect copyright.PENANAbhcboXPG37
could have helped you."517Please respect copyright.PENANAulfFaeQKYC
"Not to worry, I can find my way around," said Carly.517Please respect copyright.PENANAl0XgfRhtpH
"Good, Angel and I will be waiting."517Please respect copyright.PENANAy4lLUCjxoL
Carly gladly smiled at 517Please respect copyright.PENANA4NjGQ7JZSz
Amanda and quickly made a beeline to the door and closed it behind her. 517Please respect copyright.PENANAtCfv1ehq1M
Angel continued to stare at the door. She couldn't help but wonder why 517Please respect copyright.PENANAacCwbcVHP8
Carly was up so early. She was never this early. Or maybe it's because 517Please respect copyright.PENANAxyTJp0xhhP
she didn't have anywhere to go last night?517Please respect copyright.PENANAdv9zdqWG6E
And Leo? It was strange 517Please respect copyright.PENANAGG6YG2xbak
that both of them were awake at the same time. Could it be that they 517Please respect copyright.PENANAwsSs9wuCEF
were together? Angel couldn't stop thinking about the two of them 517Please respect copyright.PENANAUTWqDf1F1j
together in each other's arms. It almost made her sick.517Please respect copyright.PENANAdgWBoPnqwb
"They were definitely together, no doubt about that," Angel thought to herself.517Please respect copyright.PENANAR2KO6G0H7F
"Are you alright, dear?" Amanda asked.517Please respect copyright.PENANAF1nz3AZbrG
"I am, you don't have to worry about me," Angel replied.517Please respect copyright.PENANAM7Jr7zPsLm
"What were you planning to do that made you fall?"517Please respect copyright.PENANAqSacW5JmPo
"I was trying to reach out for something and I completely forgot that my legs weren't completely healed."517Please respect copyright.PENANAZgUkxzcjSv
"I understand. But tell me, did you sleep well, last night?"517Please respect copyright.PENANALLu0FnmdxZ
"I did, Amanda, thanks for asking."517Please respect copyright.PENANAUdwkXFBbj7
While Amanda and Angel 517Please respect copyright.PENANAdHcDZfirCK
continued to chat, Carly was in the kitchen preparing tea. Just as she 517Please respect copyright.PENANAa6ETkFWY13
found the tea leaves and put them in the two white teacups, Leo appeared517Please respect copyright.PENANABmVXebtkQI
at the door.517Please respect copyright.PENANAMT0jUQ3PAt
"Hey," said Leo as he came in.517Please respect copyright.PENANANgwkcn5FPD
"Hey," said Carly as she gave him a smile. "Sorry for what happened earlier."517Please respect copyright.PENANAHWb2JeVLNg
"With your sister? I know she ruined our little moment. It's like she knew you and I were together."517Please respect copyright.PENANAtK8iEkOYT9
"No, she didn't." Carly 517Please respect copyright.PENANAoDSFjHHDH0
went over to the electric kettle that had already boiled the water and 517Please respect copyright.PENANAylJ0fxR1HG
poured the water into the teacups. "And besides, you shouldn't have 517Please respect copyright.PENANAxbXMqYsqIc
followed me to her room. The way she looked at the both of us when you 517Please respect copyright.PENANAC1NQ9mHxWS
appeared, she probably knows that we were together."517Please respect copyright.PENANAEJLEdMp0Ey
"I don't care about 517Please respect copyright.PENANAmeU8OwP1Jc
that." Leo came over to Carly and wrapped his arms around her waist from517Please respect copyright.PENANAqpUzamNimL
the back. "She can think all she wants. She knows my feelings for you 517Please respect copyright.PENANAxGsYVM0xWS
are real."517Please respect copyright.PENANAneTrG002l6
Carly smiled and she 517Please respect copyright.PENANATkWoPRpeVy
loved the feeling of Leo's arms around her. She felt so safe and secure 517Please respect copyright.PENANAMdNU0fwiY6
that she didn't want him to let her go.517Please respect copyright.PENANAdA1HZiPoZ1
She quickly turned 517Please respect copyright.PENANASHG6Jt40iA
around to face him and said, "as much as Angel knows, the rest of the 517Please respect copyright.PENANAVTlvOVYiBS
people here don't. And do you know what would happen if they find out? 517Please respect copyright.PENANAvL9NEg4vVD
They would freak out."517Please respect copyright.PENANAr5RBWzzuyi
"Especially my mum," said Leo rolling his eyes.517Please respect copyright.PENANAORFmV4aObf
"Yes." Carly gave him a smile. "Especially your mum."517Please respect copyright.PENANATWErdtac2D
Leo continued to look 517Please respect copyright.PENANACu2v2OWH1M
down at Carly and he couldn't help but bend over and kiss her on the 517Please respect copyright.PENANAAskEN8Z90u
cheek. Carly couldn't help but blush as she playfully pushed him away.517Please respect copyright.PENANAjP46OVLfZJ
"I've to go and take tea for my sister and your grandmother."517Please respect copyright.PENANAIWret2BjJg
"Wait," said Leo as he made his way over to her again, "may I just give you a little......"517Please respect copyright.PENANAGLplAfnuZ3
"What's going on here?"517Please respect copyright.PENANAztCuVHL2MS
Leo and Carly almost 517Please respect copyright.PENANAhdBmvIUz0j
jumped in fright as they turned towards the door and standing there in a517Please respect copyright.PENANAofwUs3Z4ih
blue nightgown, was Mrs McDonell. She looked over at Carly and Leo with517Please respect copyright.PENANAxxBtbgyxzu
an eyebrow raised. The two stood a few feet apart from each other.517Please respect copyright.PENANAsVkXhyVVcu
"I asked a question and I demand an answer," she said. "What's going on here?"517Please respect copyright.PENANAvolPfm7nHY
"Nothing, nothing is going on, Mrs McDonell," Carly replied. "I was only preparing tea."517Please respect copyright.PENANAzP6uCiGavj
"Tea for who?" Mrs McDonell folded her arms.517Please respect copyright.PENANAG2UULHN3T3
"For Amanda and Angel."517Please respect copyright.PENANALh76KfwAMp
"They are both awake?"517Please respect copyright.PENANA3tYAfEGQ0k
"Yes, they are. They are in Angel's room right now."517Please respect copyright.PENANAgkqDbXeyOl
Mrs McDonell looked at 517Please respect copyright.PENANACMQq18E5dz
Carly, then at her son, then back at Carly again. She couldn't figure 517Please respect copyright.PENANA5Y3rDYDYM3
out why the two of them were here together, alone. She just brushed it 517Please respect copyright.PENANApJCAs5xkgY
off.517Please respect copyright.PENANAcArRUPtb5T
"Fine, take their tea," said Mrs McDonell.517Please respect copyright.PENANAapdcbg5Tas
Carly took the tray 517Please respect copyright.PENANApdYfoRJnuG
where the teacups lay and put the teaspoons and bowl of sugar on the 517Please respect copyright.PENANABkrckVFUJ9
tray. She quickly made her way past Leo and past his mother standing by 517Please respect copyright.PENANAQnLSyQBngs
the door. Mrs McDonell looked on at Carly as she disappeared round the 517Please respect copyright.PENANAY0W5wmi2AN
corner.517Please respect copyright.PENANAtOrJ2hotZD
"Mmmm," Mrs McDonell looked at her son. "She's has a great body. Even through her nightgown, I can make out her figure."517Please respect copyright.PENANAxS9jQyDe0Z
Leo shook his head at his mother. "You're so unbelievable," he said.517Please respect copyright.PENANAb5BYqUO2cK
"What did I do now? I'm just trying to make conversation with you. I never saw you when you came back last night."517Please respect copyright.PENANAM26cHbd5n1
"I don't want to talk, mum. Maybe later."517Please respect copyright.PENANA8hUO84C5iu
Leo made his way to the 517Please respect copyright.PENANAkgLLbSv1YL
kitchen door, bypassing his mother. Mrs McDonell could only sigh as she 517Please respect copyright.PENANANNflVHcQ42
thought of how she was going to handle Leo.517Please respect copyright.PENANAEyDMdgIMmq
By seven, almost 517Please respect copyright.PENANAuTpyTPGtgB
everyone was awake and the house help were now up and about getting the 517Please respect copyright.PENANAbvl3hZzEmg
place cleaned up. Breakfast was already being made in the kitchen and 517Please respect copyright.PENANAv7rOfJfUbZ
the lovely smell was intoxicating.517Please respect copyright.PENANAKvH1E1n54g
"Oh, my, I'm so hungry,"517Please respect copyright.PENANAx8DAllsCNW
said Oliver as he came down the stairs with his backpack. He quickly 517Please respect copyright.PENANAqgkrHkqRoc
dropped his bag by the foyer so that he would just grab it when it was 517Please respect copyright.PENANAdMjgVWhgVf
time to go to school.517Please respect copyright.PENANAdF1zcraurL
He quickly rushed over to the dinning area and found one of the helpers setting the table for breakfast.517Please respect copyright.PENANAgHd2iLaCvW
"Morning, Oliver," came Leo as he entered the dinning room. "Did the smell of food drag you here?"517Please respect copyright.PENANAbj3SFOXPhV
"Yep," Oliver replied as he took his seat at the table. "Looks like it dragged you here too."517Please respect copyright.PENANAwdkAMVRIdw
"Ya, it did." Leo soon came to sit right next to him.517Please respect copyright.PENANAr1VQAh1Ha6
"Morning, you two," came Diana as she came over and gave Oliver a peck on the cheek.517Please respect copyright.PENANA0Gu5mi97Qr
"Morning, mum," said Oliver.517Please respect copyright.PENANA53FevkptEU
"Morning, aunt," said Leo.517Please respect copyright.PENANAxvCQCh9fAG
"What happened yesterday, Leo?" Diana asked as she sat opposite her son. "You weren't around for supper?"517Please respect copyright.PENANATZje5A3iyA
"I fell asleep," he replied. "I was so exhausted."517Please respect copyright.PENANA1KYxLKOnJM
"I figured." Diana gave her nephew a smile as she poured a glass of orange juice.517Please respect copyright.PENANAJyeBiJvqxL
Bacon, sausage, friuts, 517Please respect copyright.PENANAdrRkvCLxWf
eggs, toast and delicious muffins were soon served on the table. Leo and517Please respect copyright.PENANAYPXvg3AA7U
his cousin couldn't help but water at the delicious food in front of 517Please respect copyright.PENANAeSQqA45tcF
them.517Please respect copyright.PENANA1oooKyTOwu
"I can't wait to get all of this into my mouth," said Oliver.517Please respect copyright.PENANAC4fmDOh0BB
"Hey, are you going to leave some for me?" came Carly as she stepped into the dinning area.517Please respect copyright.PENANAOCAIYoMJZ1
"Of course we were," said Diana. "The boys can't eat all this by themselves."517Please respect copyright.PENANAkGAQ88ojAV
"We definitely can, right, Leo?" Oliver asked.517Please respect copyright.PENANARPotVdD19Y
"Right," Leo replied.517Please respect copyright.PENANAls7yS52H14
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.517Please respect copyright.PENANANjDiiQ37zj
Just as they were about 517Please respect copyright.PENANAwU9dazrOpO
to eat, Mr McDonell came in and settled down after giving his morning 517Please respect copyright.PENANAUXpJEKs7YV
greetings at the head of the table. As usual every morning, there was a 517Please respect copyright.PENANATw7je1CTSa
newspaper at the table ready for him to be read.517Please respect copyright.PENANA2Fhfk6PyeD
"Will you be going early to the office, Leo?" Mr McDonald asked as he poured himself a cup of coffee.517Please respect copyright.PENANA12BzsU8QQl
"No, I'll be there a little late, dad," Leo replied.517Please respect copyright.PENANAtst2hmvGrC
"Oh, goodness, me," came Amanda's voice. "Looks like almost everyone is here for breakfast."517Please respect copyright.PENANAl5gk39HIxV
Before Leo could reply 517Please respect copyright.PENANAIq8SSuHmD5
that not everyone was here, he turned on his chair and saw his grandma 517Please respect copyright.PENANAicwvSp58m9
being wheeled in by one of the helpers and Eric with Angel. He quickly 517Please respect copyright.PENANAcZBAkHFkPS
looked away feeling irritated.517Please respect copyright.PENANAWu23CA3ZSr
"Morning, everyone," said Amanda cheerfully as she was placed right next to Leo.517Please respect copyright.PENANAMgCzkuWI5Y
Everyone else on the 517Please respect copyright.PENANAYL2au9KVbF
table said good morning to her. Angel also greeted everyone as well as 517Please respect copyright.PENANAmnoM65KVux
she settled on the other side of the table with Eric. Everyone replied, 517Please respect copyright.PENANAxcVRZ7ePAu
except Leo.517Please respect copyright.PENANAZuLs6kFuZL
"This is just lovely," 517Please respect copyright.PENANA2C7i5b6OQ2
said Amanda. "Usually at breakfast we are never gathered together like 517Please respect copyright.PENANAVK4VVMmyA8
this. Most of the time, we're all doing our own things and people leave 517Please respect copyright.PENANAQw9zkvf2Ow
really early."517Please respect copyright.PENANAHGztyWGld4
"That's true, mum," said Mr McDonell. "I was also thinking the same thing."517Please respect copyright.PENANAdZOsCXH9zx
"Your wife isn't here, 517Please respect copyright.PENANAhBM8MEpoDf
though, but I'm not worried about her." Amanda gave a bright smile. 517Please respect copyright.PENANAmiqlgyJEx9
"It's good to see everyone of you all here in the morning."517Please respect copyright.PENANAcmQlcA9BoL
"I wonder why this has happened today," said Eric.517Please respect copyright.PENANA5uCoLOd3Sy
"I think it's because of our important guests," said Amanda as the helper beside her served her breakfast on a plate.517Please respect copyright.PENANA0F4adLkZxb
Angel almost spelt the 517Please respect copyright.PENANAJmR6OP4Mne
juice she was pouring into her glass but steadied her hand just in time.517Please respect copyright.PENANAyHVlZxOZMC
Leo almost choked on his toast. Their eyes somehow fell upon each other517Please respect copyright.PENANAd6UzDLHzxM
and they quickly looked away. Angel put down the jug of juice and Leo 517Please respect copyright.PENANALRv6ai9wWm
just ran a hand through his hair.517Please respect copyright.PENANA9WSnRcR1nL
"Here, let me serve you," said Eric as he poured the juice in Angel's glass.517Please respect copyright.PENANA8Dh88rKhdq
"Thanks, Eric," said Angel, giving him a smile.517Please respect copyright.PENANAIO8j1EbiFG
"A doctor is coming to check up on you, Angel," said Mr McDonell. "He's our family doctor."517Please respect copyright.PENANAHi4zLbaaXl
"Oh, no, there is no need for that, Mr McDonell," said Angel.517Please respect copyright.PENANAbth0F81CHh
"Well, someone has to check up on you from time to time. It's no big deal. It's for your own good."517Please respect copyright.PENANA9VRvxuGeju
"You should listen to him, dear," said Amanda. "You aren't going to be the only one getting a medical checkup today."517Please respect copyright.PENANAjPKeAVu7Vc
Angel smiled at Amanda and ate her breakfast. Everyone else went on happily with their meal.517Please respect copyright.PENANAYH5Jv6OE2t
As soon as Oliver was done, he got up from the table.517Please respect copyright.PENANA7NvgsACZ1h
"Have to go to school," he said.517Please respect copyright.PENANAsiHE0E5kVM
"Okay, have a nice day, Oliver," said Angel.517Please respect copyright.PENANAfsyi8pyRgP
Oliver came round the 517Please respect copyright.PENANAfqhn17XDyg
table to where Angel sat and gave her a hug from behind. Angel gave a 517Please respect copyright.PENANA0y1UjFYd3o
heartfelt laugh. Leo just rolled his eyes at her. He was so not liking 517Please respect copyright.PENANAlCdd8bWB5A
what was happening in front of him. Her laugh felt so irritating to his 517Please respect copyright.PENANAazJ9DwmqYt
ears.517Please respect copyright.PENANAp6NWaYLpa4
"You too," said Oliver as he smiled and went over to hug his mum and soon ran out of the dinning room.517Please respect copyright.PENANAQAgxgQoifr
"So adorable," said Carly.517Please respect copyright.PENANAbUlh84NtOk
"He's adorable when he wants to be and annoying when you least expect it," said Eric.517Please respect copyright.PENANA14ZMHUB33G
"That's not true," said Diana. "My Oliver is not like that."517Please respect copyright.PENANA0hUIEZfr9F
Eric playfully rolled his eyes. "Then you don't know your own son at all."517Please respect copyright.PENANAUmnd38ElSi
"And you think I don't know you? You playboy."517Please respect copyright.PENANAAjdFJhwduD
Eric looked at his mother giving her the sign to keep quiet. "Mum....are you seriously saying that in front of Angel right now?"517Please respect copyright.PENANAY2MXMW8sHf
"I don't mind," said Angel as she looked like she would burst out laughing.517Please respect copyright.PENANAmnZYObVl7Q
"Well, I do."517Please respect copyright.PENANAT9iPg0fUIt
"Enough," said Diana. "You're running late for work."517Please respect copyright.PENANAoIONgCGegS
"Seriously, mum?" Eric looked at her.517Please respect copyright.PENANAx3mcNPNKHi
"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."517Please respect copyright.PENANAhXhZRikI3U
"Okay, uncle," said Eric as he got his last piece of toast and bit it and then stood up.517Please respect copyright.PENANAAOLbYAYRuO
"I'll find you in the 517Please respect copyright.PENANAWVmqBICou7
car," said Mr McDonell as he also stood up from his chair. "I'll go get 517Please respect copyright.PENANAvtods5cPq1
my briefcase." He soon went out of the dining room.517Please respect copyright.PENANAz97O4d8a2P
"Are you coming with us, Leo?" Eric asked.517Please respect copyright.PENANAdQDbVBSWcX
"No, I'll find you at the office later," Leo answered.517Please respect copyright.PENANAoVlYonZvOH
"Yes," said Amanda. "He and I have to have a little chat before he leaves."517Please respect copyright.PENANAH2ETbhyLFT
"Okay. Angel," Eric looked over at Angel and patted her head. "I'll see you when I get back from work."517Please respect copyright.PENANAV27RaagNq1
"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.517Please respect copyright.PENANAfm3egbcGIo
Eric didn't say anything but smiled at her and said goodbye to everyone else on the table and left the dining room.517Please respect copyright.PENANAhF6KE1q1X7
"I also have a lot of work to do at the beauty parlour today," said Diana as she also finished her breakfast.517Please respect copyright.PENANAOgE73ts2Fe
"You work at the beauty parlour, aunt?" Carly asked with so much excitement.517Please respect copyright.PENANAI68JSdfuTI
"I own it, my dear," Diana answered with a smile. "Would you like to join me and see the place?"517Please respect copyright.PENANAjFPPY5iqbh
Before Carly could 517Please respect copyright.PENANAjcywGZnBPr
reply, she looked over at her sister who was looking at her breakfast. 517Please respect copyright.PENANAAZvRdoRKai
She hadn't finished half way and she didn't seem the least bit 517Please respect copyright.PENANANrPy2r8G6c
interested about what her sister was up to.517Please respect copyright.PENANAEWgpYCFwUg
"I'll join you," said 517Please respect copyright.PENANAYWjPBCZYc0
Carly. "It's Friday today and I don't think I'm in the mood for lectures517Please respect copyright.PENANA5Z8BplbQBF
after what happened. I need to take my mind off things."517Please respect copyright.PENANAwRWjRKsuhI
"Perfect," said Diana as she stood up from her seat. "I'll go see if Bertha is willing to go with us."517Please respect copyright.PENANAd4MHvWLrC6
"I'll go get ready," 517Please respect copyright.PENANAVO2RnlxJfd
said Carly as the two ladies quickly left the table. Angel gave Carly a 517Please respect copyright.PENANAjz0NWMmRAt
weird look and shook her head. Carly was definitely something else at 517Please respect copyright.PENANAsNEXPkAunA
times.517Please respect copyright.PENANAKqaSsrBKRR
"Women and their beauty," said Amanda as she shook her head.517Please respect copyright.PENANAwK2hv9lzLh
There were now the three of them at the table. Amanda, Angel and Leo.517Please respect copyright.PENANAqtZRzAjc9Y
"That only leaves the three of us," said Amanda excitedly. "This is just what I needed."517Please respect copyright.PENANAOVNZ436HfV
The last thing Leo 517Please respect copyright.PENANAwbRYQjoRzp
needed was to be in the same room with Angel and Angel also felt the 517Please respect copyright.PENANAPLB5H8mTIm
same way. For the both of them, this was extremely awful.517Please respect copyright.PENANACEEwA0z2O1
"You know I'll need to be at work earlier in the day, grandma," said Leo as he looked at Amanda.517Please respect copyright.PENANAhYlHwVgsKj
"Of course, I know, you silly boy," said Amanda as she playfully pinched Leo's cheek. "Remember, you and I need to talk."517Please respect copyright.PENANAJO4UupWW2i
"Oww, grandma!" Leo responded as he held his pinched cheek.517Please respect copyright.PENANA7QPxwfW3R4
"If you want to talk right now, I'll leave you two, then," said Angel as she started to roll her wheelchair back.517Please respect copyright.PENANASItabcRhhV
"Not so fast, dear," said Amanda. "You aren't going anywhere. I need to talk to the both of you."517Please respect copyright.PENANAbHzNdhQUma
"Huh?" Angel and Leo said at the same time with confused looks on their faces.517Please respect copyright.PENANAXUsTWF3Q7W
"Yes. It's really 517Please respect copyright.PENANAOx2AHSt20h
important that I speak to you both. Don't be mad. We really have to talk517Please respect copyright.PENANAqlKr86Jo3P
and I lied that I only had to talk to Leo so that he can stay for a 517Please respect copyright.PENANArOGSpnsDrM
while. I know the last thing you want is for me to bother you around 517Please respect copyright.PENANA9JkUtoS1Dq
since I'm so old."517Please respect copyright.PENANAjVWPn0VvtU
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.517Please respect copyright.PENANAyfNPAtok4E
"Okay, then," Angel agreed first. "I'm willing to listen, Amanda.517Please respect copyright.PENANANo5AFLZAMy
"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?"517Please respect copyright.PENANAO8QQnnIusq
Leo sighed. He looked 517Please respect copyright.PENANAeUiUjLAoBL
over at Angel who looked like she would cut his neck with a butter knife517Please respect copyright.PENANAdDa5vgNxD0
that laid right next to her on the table. He also threw her a look but 517Please respect copyright.PENANAO1Ta2gJ4Jg
quickly changed it when he turned to face his grandmother.517Please respect copyright.PENANAd1IALn4UgR
"Okay, grandma," he said. "I'll listen."517Please respect copyright.PENANA5txtU6HLMu
"Good," said Amanda with a bright smile on her face. "Let's go to the patio."
