Louisa May Alcott 8 Cousins Novels & Stories

There was only one person that she could always talk to in that family, but couldn't anymore. Eloise tears her eyes away from the empty space of her bookshelf that contains the Little Women book and her eyes land on her cousin. She shook her head and gave him an innocent smile. She tied her hair into a low bun as she wore the copper wire bracelet. “I'm fine. Just anxious for school and worried if I might pass or incredibly fail.” she replied before walking over to her wardrobe and grabbing a leather jacket.

His family obsession was unsettling but Loretta said he has been like that for a long time already and nothing has happened yet so we weren't that bothered. I met my other cousins as well. Aunt Lyla's only surviving child was around Gemma's age and boy was she a sight for sore eyes. Loretta looked similar to my mother but Daffodil looked exactly like my mother. I was told my mother and hers looked like twins. The only difference was that my cousin's eyes were blue as she's the first born to her mother. Hearing her wish me luck in my future and kissing my cheek made me burst into tears because it felt as though my mother was giving me her approval. Their voices were also strangely similar.

She said, her lips curved in a wide smile. As we entered the house, I was tackled by someone, A girl and a boy for about the same age. Standing in front of me. "Hi! You must be Allyssa? I am Courtney! And this is Carl, we're twins! And you're our cousin! I didn't know that we have cousins before but when we--" "It's just you" Her brother cut her words but she just rolled her eyes before she continued her rant.

“Mr. Black, don’t be angry. Peter’s in the wrong, but I’ll immediately get my workers to get rid of these bricks. Tomorrow, I’ll personally pick the best marble for you.” Walter snorted, showing that he was not buying it. “John, don’t sweet-talk me! I don’t care how you do your business with your cousin, but you have to give me an explanation today! A hundred thousand dollars’ worth of material turned into a truckload of bricks. Do you really think I’m an idiot?”

Dozens of messages flooded in. Aunt Alice immediately tagged me and fired off a message. "Michael, come and explain yourself! Why are you falsely accusing Joe like this?" Mom's brother, Marco Bennett, followed shortly after, sounding confused and concerned. "What's going on here? How did things end up this bad between you guys?" One of my relatives, Katherine Ford, stepped in, trying to calm things down. "Joe is still young. Can't we talk this through properly?" My cousin, Drake Bennett, chimed in last, taking Joe's side. "Michael, isn't this a bit much? It's just a laptop. Is it really worth all this chaos?"

He didn't need love, and he didn't follow rules! "It won't work..." I muttered in despair. "He's crazy. He's invincible. We're all going to die here." "No, there is a chance." A calm voice cut through the panic. It was Cousin Alice. She was a Ph.D. in Sociology from Harvard, the smartest person in our family. She pushed up her glasses. Although her face was pale, her eyes were incredibly steady. "Did you guys notice? The ones who died in the first batch all chose 'high-profile' roles."

Louis noticing her presence in the distance in three strides closed the distance and hugged his cousin. "My nephew?" Louis found it amusing the way Alisha was carrying her son, the boy looked like a panda bear glued against his mother, he was clinging so tightly that his little arms were around Alisha's neck. "You don't know your Uncle Louis!" she complained. "You've taught him wrong!" Over the past five years.

I admitted worriedly. "And?" she asked, confused. I looked away and sighed. I felt my heart ponder as I continue to think of it. "A-according to Harriet, Lucas and their cousin are inseparable. They're always together. She even said that he's protective of her. And their cousin only listens to him. She even said that they were only separated for years because their cousin continued her studies abroad. Lucas almost goes after her, if it wasn't their uncle's decision he'd be with her. That's why he chose to stay beside her condo when she returned. They're cousins and best friends," I explained everything that I knew from Lucas' sister.

They began chatting while Mommy Hacel continued telling me how successful Louis’ cousins were. “Do you know, dear, that you won’t find any poor people in the Montemayor family? Everyone has their own business to inherit from their parents. I almost didn’t answer Izaak back then because I knew I’d be judged,” she started. Mommy Hacel invited me to sit. She then asked the server for two glasses of wine. “Wife, I’ll just go with Giovanni for a while. Please accompany Mom while I’m gone.” Louis kissed me on the lips before going with Giovanni to join his male cousins.

"Well aunt Rachel never let us leave our room till it was clean. And when we got to high school, we were used to it. Not to mention college." "Aunt Rachel." Madison huffed. "She's Mattie's cousin for crying out loud." The sisters were forced to leave their parents and move to Italy when their family lost its fortune. They were nine and seven years old.
