Dwight Pov... We were busy preparing in the kitchen when my brother came home last night chilling and collapsed at the front door. I asked Laude to help me bring him to the room. He was not just chilling but had a high fever. I called the doctor to come over just when Karla came. I'm surprised to see her but Alison cut me off saying she invited her as she was alone in her apartment and promised Cali to take care of her while she was here in LA. I forgot about my brother when she came. Her presence is distractive. I let her help in the kitchen while I help the doctor to assist my brother. Mom's birthday party was full of fun and surprises. She enjoyed her 58th birthday. We exchanged birthday wishes for her. "Happy birthday mom. I wish you have more birthdays to come and healthy." I uttered before kissing her cheeks. "Happy birthday mom. My wish is please live longer and be healthy. I still want to introduce my girlfriend and children to you!" Jack beamed. Everyone was stunned even
Alison Pov...I was dumbfounded to see Karla with Windle. I didn't even notice she left the living room. How did she know about Windle? What she does is trespassing and it's not appropriate for a woman like her. My eyes bulged when I realise something. Cali did this to my brother often. I was saving her when I always come unexpectedly. Her plan always failed before! Oh no! This can't be happening either!I quickly grab my things to go to work. Karla started a week already and Windle was still pissed when she left back to Italy. He even told us that he will never use our room again. He said he was terrified and his anger is tested when he was there but I know the real reason. It reminded him of the day he woke up with Karla beside her.Windle was traumatized by a woman that's why he become meticulous!"Babe! Why are you dressed like that!" Dwight asked surprised. It's my day off today but I can't wait to talk to Karla. I just hope my hunch wasn't right. Aunt Delilah will flip again if
Alejandro Pov.. It's been four years since I left LA and lived here in California with my family. I miss my buddies, my previous life, and of course my sister. Before it was just Alison and me playing around and taking care of each other but now we have our own families to take care of. I miss my buddies as well. It was friendship and misfortune when we were just young that brought us together and start doing business. Missing each other and the lives we had was just a part of it. Now, what we build is a beautiful blessing to our family. Cali resigned from modeling but maintained her fashion business. I can raise my family even if she stays at home though she wants to become productive but with the twins, she can't do whatever she wanted. We decided to surprise Alison and my colleague by visiting LA without informing them. I bought the place I rented before as the owner sell it for a cheaper price. It was an abrupt offer but I grab it. We've been looking for the right place to stay
Windle Pov...Missing home that I finally fit in just when I arrived. The fact that I just saw dad and my few colleagues. When mom died and I started living with dad. I forget everything and started anew. This place will always be my birthplace even now that I am old and meet my biological father. Nothing will change it is just an addition just like in business.Having an extended family is also great. I've taken care of other people as my buddy but different when it comes to your siblings. You will become extra careful, sensitive, and tight. "Dad I'll be eating dinner with you later. I only have two meetings today!" I informed dad while we are eating breakfast. "You've been coming home early since you came back! Any friends to meet?" Dad asks curiously. I chuckled biting my last bite. "Dad, I never had friends to call when I was here. All I had was a business acquaintance but don't worry dad, a few friends were busy recently. I'll be busy next week as I will go back to LA soon." I
Cali Pov...I'm uncomfortable and don't understand how Karla knows Windle when she never sits in one place. I'm not against them if they like each other it's just I'm worried she will experience turmoil like we had or worst. Windle is a nice guy but unpredictable.Karla is not answering my calls as if she was aware of what will I ask her.What I should I do to both of them not getting hurt? Does Karla like him so much? Why she has a lot of sketches of him?"Babe, why are yous till awake? You should sleep while the twin was asleep!" Alejandro stops my trance."I can't stop thinking of Karla. How did she know Windle and where did they meet." I replied."Maybe accidentally meet!" He muttered."What do you mean? Do you know something?" I asked him skeptically. His words state he already knows. He looks at me seriously before sighing deeply. "She asks help to find someone four years ago! I was shocked to see her sketch. I pretended I didn't know who he was and told her it wasn't easy to f
Karla Pov...I'm not scared people will know my feelings toward him. What scares me is him! He seems not pleased to see me. His deep voice and serious look are hurting me. I don't know why I like him so much!When he came in shivering in cold I wanted to run to him but his words are like a shotgun making me freeze on my chair staring at him. Words were stuck in my tongue.He was surprised to know Cali and I were siblings. He couldn't sit that he opted to run away again. I pick myself up and run to chase him."Wait!" I stop him. He abruptly stop surprised. Maybe he didn't expect that I will follow him. In the first place, I was here because of him.When he looks back. I stuttered unable to speak properly not because I am scared of him but because I couldn't pull myself struck by his presence. Words are automatically shut down and my head went blank, all I see him looking like an angel standing in front of me."What?" He blurted but I can't put on my words annoying him. "Don't dare sto
Windle Pov...Surprise? Is that even a big word to elaborate on and used for the day? Maybe! How can I run away from a young woman prying on me? Why do I have to get entangled with her? Alejnadro'ssisterinlaw? Wow! And what did she say? Working as assistant of Laude? I laughed annoyed before closing my eyes to clear my mind! I can't think irrationally! That woman is not easy to mess with it's Cali's sister what do I expect? Cali protested and even chooses that her parents disowned her not to lose Alejandro! But her sister is too young for me! She is already my firstborn if I had one! I admit that woman makes me flustered and speechless. I don't even want to drink coffee when shes' near me. The palpitation sucks greedily. I can't sacrifice her beautiful life ahead of her.I regretted going there. I should have waited in his home as I still have access but at least I know to escape Thompsun Mall and Laude's Thompsun office. If she is working there then downtown will only be the place
Alison Pov...We were not just shocked and left dumbfounded that day. I can't even utter any word locked up from my trance. I understand what Cali felt right now. She is not trying to stop her to fall in love. She is just stopping her not to get hurt as their family most likely followed their traditions. Arrange marriage to a family they think can meet their standards. You are lucky when you fall in love with the person they arranged for you to marry. Then be sorry if you can't get along and learn to love, you'll end up divorced or pathetically stay and endure until you die. I guess they should break that chain. My nephews and nieces can have that kind of marriage! Though Alejandro won't let that happen, he has his own rules for her princess. It's my due next month but I'm bored staying at home. After Dwight went to work I ask dad's driver to bring me to Thompsun Mall. I grab my favorite drink at Jack Coffee shop before going to the office only to be surprised. Karla is not just pis
