Her sister's man 57
Jennifer It had been a week since my shooting and I hadn't been strong the whole time. I knew they weren't exactly allowing families to connect with each other but I had yet to recover from the shock of it so I spent most of my time not knowing of my family meeting but today I was fully back to my senses. My sister and parents were by my side. My mom was stroking my hair, sitting at the foot of my bed with all this hospital equipment still connected to me."How do you feel now?" She asked me for the umpteenth time. She probably expected me to stumble and pass out. I heard I'd undergone surgery to have the bullet taken out and I had zero memories of it. it had to be the seamless surgery ever."Mom, I'm fine, relax." I rolled my eyes at her, my dad still wasn't talking to me but it didn't matter. I winced at the slight pain I felt on my shoulder where the bullet had hit me. The pain relief medications were helpful, but the image of me being fired created a weird phantom pain."Where'

I spent one more night in the hospital before clearing everything. I had not been looking forward to leaving the hospital now that I knew my dad was kicking me out of his house. I did not regret standing up for myself because I deserved to put him in his place. I just wished he would have given me more time to prepare."You know you are staying at my place, right?" Daniel asked as he drove my Mom, sister and I back to our place."Only for a few days before I'm able to get my own place." I reminded him. The last thing I wanted was to be like a leech on his back."We will talk more about this." He kept his eyes on the road and I would also prefer to talk about it in private.The ride back to her place was a very quiet night of us seeing any of our thoughts aloud.We got to the house and my mum went upstairs before us, "I'm just going to check if he's in the room and I will talk to him and just make him understand that he is being such a dummy all the entire situation."I understood tha

A few weeks later."Here you go, our special pasta Dran meal." I served the plate to a couple sitting on the first table. It had been three weeks since I started working at Hooked on the waitress. It was a restaurant where we served food wearing swimsuits that were form fitting and showed a lot of cleavage.At first I was sceptical taking the job then when I heard that the pay was $50 per hour and I could work for eight hours a day I hopped on it straight away.The best part of it was Daniel and I had moved to this side of town because his new job at a different print company was an hour drive away and the restaurant was a fifteen minutes drive from home.Speaking of Daniel, there he was sitting on one of the tables, pretending to look through the menu as though his eyes were not heavily fixed on me. I was heading back to the kitchen when I stopped in front of him for a brief second, "sir, what will you be having?""Your best meal," he lowered his voice, "you." I rolled my eyes "chee

The next day was a Saturday. Neither one of us had work today. I was chopping onions to make breakfast with in the kitchen when my phone rang out loud from where I'd left it.I furrowed my eyebrows, I barely got called when I wasn't away from Daniel as he was the only one constantly blowing my phone up."Could you please pass my phone?" I called to him.He skipped into the kitchen and gave it to me, wrapping his arms around me from behind and planting kisses on my neck.I looked at who the caller was and gasped."What, who is it?" He asked out of plain curiousity."My dad." I said and the look on his face matched the surprising one on mine.Since I moved away from the house my dad has not called me for once. Every now and then I will hear from my sister or my mum but he didn't even want to know how I was feeling and I did just come to the conclusion that our relationship was over."Do you want to answer it?" Daniel wondered."I guess so, I mean why now?"I was curious to know what yo

"Come on you can't be serious!" I groaned at my phone after reading the text message Daniel had sent to me. He was supposed to come pick me up after work but according to his text message the route he normally took was heavily blocked by traffic and so he had to go through a different path.I was pretty annoyed because I had expected him to come pick me so I didn't take any change of clothes since he had been the one to drop me in the morning. I just left home in my swimsuit and nothing more. "Did you really have to do this tonight?" I mumbled aloud to myself as I trailed down the street that led to our house. It would take me at least forty five minutes to walk back home and it was past eleven p.m . I finished at work by 9 p.m. The only reason I was here till this time was because I was waiting for Daniel to come pick me up and by now all the shops around us were closed and it was starting to get lonely and creepy so he asked me to leave because he would not be able to make it in

Daniel and I had packed our bags the day before and headed to the airport. I called my sister and she sent one of the Banks' drivers to come pick us up so here we were pulling up in front of the Banks mansion."Weird to say this but feels good to be here again," I told Daniel, undoing my seatbelt and getting out of the car. I actually looked forward to this whole thing."If you say so." He chuckled.We both got down, Daniel and the driver took our bags from the trunk and led us into the mansion. I loved the familiar smell of the wet bushes. "Well it's the moment of truth," I thought as we made our way to the main entrance I had so many questions and I was finally going to get answers to all of them.Sarah was waiting at the door, she pulled me into a hug the moment she saw me squeezing the life out of me, "I can't breathe I cannot breathe." I flailed my hands around trying to get the hell out of her grip.She let me go after bursting into a long laugh, "I'm so sorry, I just got so exc

The next morning was a hassle. Carol had come upstairs banging on the door of our room trying to force everyone awake and it was genuinely annoying since we'd slept so late last night."We have to go shopping, get up." She raised her voiceDaniel's arm was around me and he groaned when I tried to get up. "Don't leave." His thick and husky voice called in a low tone, his eyes still closed."I don't think she's going to stop," I groaned, snuggling closer to him."She'll have to give up, the doors locked, she's not forcing her way in." He said and I nodded against his chest and tightened my hold around him.I winced as she suddenly began to pound on the door. "Yeah she's not going to give up." I groaned and reluctantly got to my feet.Daniel still stayed in bed as I managed to pull myself towards the door to talk to her. I still didn't know how she was related to the family but I didn't like her.She was pounding heavily when I unlocked it and she'd almost hit my face, "what is it?""You

The day was here. It hadn't even started and I was already tired of it.This fabulous definition of a small wedding was nothing like I have ever seen. First off, their small wedding guests were almost three hundred in number. Sarah had made sure that we all went to the order of events multiple times. Her immediate family members were expected to have gotten to the reception by seven in the morning and here I was still in bed, snuggled against Daniel by freaking six thirty in the morning.She's going to be so mad at us."She shouldn't be here for long," I replied, "Carol's going to be here any second, I'm sure the only reason we are yet to hear a reaction from her is because she's been caught on the web of a particular activity and couldn't show up to break our doors down."We should actually get to our feet." Daniel kissed my head gently.I stood up reluctantly knowing he was right. The living room had been transformed since the day we came into a whole event center. All the chairs,
