Theon I left Samantha’s house in the morning, she looked exhausted, and I was not so different. Sleepiness began to overtake me and all I wanted to do was lie down and sleep. I noticed a missed call from Harper on my cell phone, followed by a few messages asking if I had gotten better and letting me know that she would be home later.She had arranged something with my sister and wanted me to accompany her to my mother's house, which I didn't hesitate to accept. But at the same time, I felt terrible for not telling her where I spent last night.As soon as we arrived home, my sister invited her into the bedroom, while my mother was sewing something, sitting on the sofa in the living room." Mama, can we talk? " I approached, feeling distressed as Harper came up the stairs with Callie, who had committed herself to looking after Daphne while Lara was out.I knew what I should do, but I didn't know how to do it without hurting Harper. That was what worried me the most." Sure Theon... Is

Theon I was in the store on Friday, finishing up some product orders when my cell phone started ringing. I frowned when I saw Samantha's picture on the screen and didn't take long to answer it." Sam, is there a problem?”" Theon I need your help," her voice came in a whisper and I heard her close a door.Worry washed over me as the countless possibilities flashed through my mind." It's nothing to do with the baby or me," she soothed me, as if she could guess what I was thinking, "but…”" Samantha, what happened? " I moved restlessly around the office." Your grandmother is in my office with a suitcase and two tickets to Vegas! " she lowered her voice even more " she forbade me to tell your family, and as much as I don't mind keeping her company, I don't want to travel alone with a crazy old woman!”Trip to Vegas!? What is my grandmother planning?" She's determined to go, I was wondering if you could come with us," she continued." She just showed up with her bags packed? " I took

Samantha Theon dropped me off in my room before heading to his own. I took a deep breath, reaching into my suitcase for my pajamas, and I'd already changed and brushed my teeth when a small knock on the door leading to his room sounded.I followed there, finding Theon standing there watching me, also already in his pajamas and with the ends of his hair slightly damp." Hi... " I tried not to stare at him." Hi, I came to tell you that I got a flight for tomorrow at eight o'clock," he returned." You decided to leave so early," I teased him." I'd rather not be on my grandmother's honeymoon," he replied with a half smile on his face.I couldn't help but smile back. Theon looked agitated and I couldn't blame him; the day had been full of surprises. I sidestepped him, entering his room and going to the window just to watch the view, while he followed my every move with curiosity." Have you talked to your mother yet? " I questioned, turning to him.Theon had grabbed two bottles of orang

Theon " Mama, why don't you let me make this tea? " my mother questioned my grandmother a few hours later as we gathered in the kitchen waiting for the guests to arrive." The tea is for my husband and I will make it," she declared stubbornly. " But I can…”" And I can pour hot water on you! " she returned.It seems that marrying the love of her life has done nothing to improve her mood. My mother gave up on her and left her there before she went to check on the ham that was in the oven." Theon, can you stay with Daphne for a while?" Lara came into the kitchen, holding the little girl out to me " Liny can apparently die if she watches her for five minutes.”My younger sister, who had arrived earlier, came soon after, following her with a calm expression on her face, already dressed for the celebration.She was wearing a short brown skirt, high heels, and a burgundy sweater, matching her bright lipstick." Hey, I told you I take care of myself so that I don't have to take care of an

Samantha After opening the gifts that each of us had brought, this time more informed about the use of each of the things, I had won, I decided to step away from the guests for a bit, stepping through one of the glass doors that led out onto a balcony overlooking the snow"capped mountains of Colorado. I hugged myself as the chilly breeze hit me, I shouldn't be out there without a coat in the middle of winter, but somehow, it helped me clear my mind a little. I walked over to the guardrail, watching the entrance to the house quietly.A few moments later I heard footsteps approaching, but I didn't bother turning around to find out who was there, it must have been my mom bringing me my coat, or crazy Delphine trying to convince me to eat something, but when the person stopped beside me, I didn't know what to do.Harper leaned over beside me, watching the scenery as I did. I bit my lower lip, feeling my heart race at her presence. Why was she there? What did she want with me? I mentally
