Chapter 8

  • Chapter eight
  • The angel gracefully walking down the stairs was wearing a ruffled colourful jumpsuit matched with ankle strap heels. She looked dashing, something was missing though. The jewellery, on her neck, was empty and it disturbed her.
  • I should have worn one of the Kaleigh blue dresses rather than this!. It makes my neck look naked. She thought.
  • Exiting from the kitchen a little boy of about seven, saunter in dipping his chips into a pudding cup. He has brown eyes and sandy hair. His square face has freckles on them, they were unevenly spread and mostly on his cheeks, which made him look cuter. He is called Marvin, a foster kid who had been driven from several foster homes due to his queer character. Yes, ' queer ' like the doctors described. The little guy is the source of first-class entertainment in the family with all his shenanigans. He was wearing ' we are the police ' pyjamas which had patches of pudding on it.
  • '' Oh my, grand soeur '' (big sister ) he paused thinking of words to use '' You look like one of those princesses. Who is your prince? ''
  • '' Am starting to think that she does not have a date '' the sassiest family member challenged. She is Wendy, an eight-year-old who always claims to be ten. She has red hair and amber eyes. In her case, she consented to remain in the foster home. The new family which wished to adopt her lived in Alaska, USA. A place too far from these people she calls family though she will never say it out loud.
  • Dawn became sadder and rushed to the gate, and opened it instantly. She peered to see any car approaching but none. She heaved a sigh turning back disappointment. For a minute back there she could swear she got a sniff of his fragrance. Perhaps it was her mind playing tricks, which happens when we think only about a specific item
  • '' He must have had a better date. Such a jerk. '' Dawn murmured in anger folding her lips together in annoyance.
  • '' Ouch, that hurts oldie '' a familiar voice rang in her ear.
  • Oldie!
  • Of course, only one annoying jerk and bonehead will ever call her by that stupid nickname.
  • Excitedly she flipped her long hair back as she did a swift turn. On taking a step towards him, a shoe heel broke and she lost her balance.
  • Fortunately, she was caught in the nick of time by this familiar stranger. He wore black sunglasses, which looked expensive by the logo on them, which is from an expertsivebrand in America. He wore a limited edition suit by Gucci, worth millions of dollars. His lip looked pink more than usual and there was a faint smell of cigarettes lingering around him.
  • For some unknown reason, Dawn wanted to see those gorgeous hazel eyes. The ones she sees every time she closes her eyes.
  • In truth, there was a reason for those glasses. Reasons that have no business with Dawn.
  • ''What have you done '' Passion screamed when her eyes met with the broken feel of her one-of-a-kind heel. Worth 650,000 francs, it was at a jackpot sale price which she won by eating the grossest food combo by a local celebrity chef. She still thinks the food may have destroyed her bladder because of her excessive peeing style.
  • Now it was broken, by her sister.
  • Passion dramatically fanned herself to resist the temptation to faint. Constantly shutting and opening her eyes, her gaze averted to someone she may know.
  • '' Am I dead already or hallucinating? ''
  • Michael recognised the expression on her face. Every fan reacted in the same way.
  • Flabbergasted!
  • He smile a little and replied '' I can't tell ''
  • '' Is that Michael Alarie from Vampire Rampage and Space wars sagas? ''
  • Michael responded curtly in a cocky way '' In the flesh ''
  • She screamed once more '' And he speaks French '' then her gaze deflected to the slim figure next to him who seem to be in a daze.
  • '' Michael, Are you internet famous '' Dawn inquired pushing her hair backwards as her blazing Savannah green eyes pierce through his soul.
  • It was at that moment in Michael noticed Dawn's chocolate brown dyed hair. He chuckled a little bit while caressing the hair.
  • '' Are you dating my sister? '' was Passion's next question.
  • **********
  • The wedding was a beautiful ceremony. From the bride giving the groom a wristwatch after he gave the ring. The procession was led by musicians and the bride with her dad who was not present because of an important business meeting in Russia. It was left with her brother and Stepmother.
  • Furthermore, they are all used to their father putting money before family.
  • As he would always say '' A family that cruises together, will stay together ''
  • ''
  • On their way to the chapel, children blocked their route with white ribbons, stretching them across the road. Marie had to cut the ribbons as she passes, demonstrating that she was able to overcome the hurdles of married life. Doing the wedding Dawn was in tears of joy and Marie was full of smiles. It was a day having a permanent record in their lives as individuals. Their way to interact will now differ.
  • Soon after it was the reception. The favourite time for foodies like Dawn at any party.
  • Instead of a cake, the french have a croquembouche - virtually a pyramid of vanilla cream-filled, balls of happiness! and the famous champagne pyramid. A bottle of champagne is opened using a sabre - extremely swash-buckling and romantically.
  • At that moment Marvin came running and tugged Dawn's dress. '' Dawn, it's dessert time and I will be right by the kitchen that will be easier to take dessert as the waiter pass by ''
  • Dawn crouched down a little and whispered in his ears '' Save me a piece of cake ''
  • In no less than minutes of standing the bride strolled closer wearing a demi pink dress. She looked fantabulous in those pin heels. The makeup on her face was elegant and the aura around her was peaceful and joyous. She rushed to Dawn and squeezed her into a tight hug
  • Unable to breathe Dawn patted Marie's hair softly and said '' Gosh, Marie. Are you trying to strangle me in such a public event ''
  • Rather than letting her go, Maurie adds pressure to the hug in excitement mixed with a lot of others' emotions, she reacted in a puddle of tears '' Stop it fool! do not ruin the moment. I will miss you munchy''
  • When Dawn noticed she was crying she pulled her friend from the hug and cupped her diamond shape face.
  • '' Hey, why are crying? You are not dying, you are only getting married after all. To the best husband in the entire world. You deserve this...to be happy and not cry even if they are happy tears. ''Dawn's tears began to flow too when she recalled all their memories, she was going to miss this stubborn friend of hers.
  • So much !.
  • Wiping her tears, Dawn joked wiping her friend's tears with a tissue. '' You are lucky that my makeup is waterproof or I may just put a hole into your beautiful face for making me cry in such a joyous celebration. ''
  • Marie felt embarrassed and took the tissue, she was a grown-up woman a
  • '' Sorry munchy, I am just overwhelmed all my dreams are coming true in the presence of my loved ones what else will never want ''
