“Oh no I’m so sorry, Elena what have you done!” Mrs Donna the owner of the restaurant c@m£ pleading at the mess on the floor
Shane kept staring, had it been he doesn’t know Samantha’s parents when she was still alive, he’d have said this girl is Samantha’s twin sister but no, Samantha isn’t a twin
“What are you still waiting for?, Get out of here immediately” madam Donna ordered
” It’s really not my fault, he pu-ll-ed me as if he’s deranged and he was like; Samantha” Elena said, demonstrating the look on his face when he said it
” Madam it’s not her fault” Warren defended, nudging Shane who’s still staring at Elena
Shane c@m£ back to his s-en-ses and faced Warren
“You’re about to get the poor girl fired* Warren said and Shane quic-kly faced Madam Donna
“It’s not like that, I actually pu-ll-ed her suddenly” Shane quic-kly said
Elena felt a light sigh of relief escape herl-ips
“Why will you pu-ll my waitress master Shane?” Madam Donna asked
“It’s only your husband who can relate ma’am, cos he was the one in charge of this place last year when Samantha was still here” Shane replied
” Samantha again, good job you almost got me fired, thank your stars that I wasn’t fired, I’d have made you cry” Elena said and made cute crybaby faces before leaving to get mop and bucket of water to clean the mess
“Let’s go” Warren said, pu-lling Shane out of the restaurant after giving madam Donna some cash for the wasted food
“You shouldn’t have pu-ll-ed her back like that, they just look alike” Warren said when they got beside the car
” I know, I was just…in love” Shane replied slowly
” In love with the dead?, Gosh!, This is getting out of hand,you nee-d to fall in love again, that’s the only way to overcome this”
Warren raised a brow before they got in the car and throu-ghout the ride home, Shane kept thinking about their striking resemblance
“Why will he leave just like that?” Miley complained, coming out of the restaurant with her minions Immediately Shane left
“Why won’t he leave?, That waitress spoilt everything” Laurette replied beside her
” Oh, there she is” Sydney said, pointing at Elena who’s receiving a call at the other side
A sm-irk appeared on Miley’s glossyl-ips as she walked up to her
“Hey trash” she crossed her arms on her che-st
Elena quic-kly cut the call with her mum and faced them
Normally she’d have smiled but she just addressed her as ‘ trash ‘, she studied her appearance and got a name for her too
“Oh, troll” she smiled
“Troll?” Sydney and Laurette chorused, amazed at her guts
Miley raised her hand , an indication for them to keep quiet and they obeyed
She poured mean glances at Elena who has an I don’t care look on her face
“You ruined what I c@m£ here to do so I hate you” she said.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about, you might wanna excuse me” Elena replied and made to go in but Sydney pu-ll-ed her back by her sleeves
Elena found herself in front of them again
“You just successfully inser-ted your name into my pure black book” Miley said coldly and rolled eyes at her before leaving with her minions
Elena huffed lightly, “pure black book indeed”
CEO Tanner’s mansion**
The maids just finished setting the dinning table, dinner is re-ady for consumption.
CEO Tanner c@m£ downstairs with his wife and they settled down as the maids served their food
They ate in silence at first before Mrs Tanner broke the news
“We should tell her as soon as possible” she said
“Sure, as soon as she comes, I’m telling her” Mr Tanner replied
As if she was listening, Cheryl c@m£ in all smiles as usual
Her gorgeously manicured hands shined graciously, her dark shinny hair added to her beauty, her small curvyl-ips is too tempting and her nose is a rare type.. one of a kind, her skin glowed perfectly and she smells nice, she uses a unique perfume br@nd .., she’s one of the most beautiful ladies in Germany if only she could go into modelling, she’ll hit jackpot within a week but ..
She
doesn’t nee-d it, her dad is one of the riche-st in Germany anyways, owner of the biggest company in Germany so she gat everything she wants at her beck and call
“My beautiful baby” Mrs Tanner smiled and Cheryl pe-cked her cheeks before taking her seat
“You’re just always beautiful” Mr Tanner said with a big smile
” I can’t help it , just like mum” Cheryl replied brightly
The maids served her food and she started eating hungrily
“You must be so hungry” Mrs Tanner observed
” Very very hungry, the conference I went for took so long and I starved throu-ghout” she said without looking up from the plate
“So now, when are we expecting our son-in-law?” Mr Tanner asked
“I haven’t found the one and in fact, right now ion have anyone in mind so chill dad, I’ll soon find someone” she replied, finally looking up
” But we can’t chill or wait cos we alre-ady found you one” Mrs Tanner replied
Cheryl smiled as if her ears just heard wrong
“St©p kidding” she remarked seriously
“Who’s kidding?, Have you ever seen me joke with my words?” Mr Tanner replied
” Dad!” Cheryl ranted, standing up as her dark hair flowed down her shoulder
“Yes daughter, it’s a contract marriage with the son of CEO Diamond, CEO of the second company after ours” Mrs Tanner added
” Get married to someone I don’t even know, someone I’ve not met before, who knows if it’s an old man or just one outd@t£d hag or a wacko!’ she shouted, the table itself is shaking, feeling her anger
“Louis Is an handsome guy, I’m sure you’ll like him, I can show you his picture” Mr Tanner said
” I’m not interested and I’m not re-ady to see his freaking picture!” She yelled
”
It’s for their company to p@rtner with ours, we just want to see our grandchildren soon, that’s why we found you a good husband, cool guys are rare to find these days, Louis is cool” Mrs Tanner said
” And I’m saying I don’t care!, I can’t get married to someone I don’t love and that’s final!” She spat and ran upstairs, leaving her food unfinished
” I knew she was gonna form ha-rd at first, she’ll still give in, it’s just a matter of time” Mr Tanner said
” I know, Louis is her husband either she wants or not”
“I just want to make sure I have Alan’s company un-der my wing and watch his progress like an hawk, his company mustn’t skyrocket than mine” Mr Tanner huffed.
A grocery sto-re**
Daisy was busy picking up what she nee-ds into the shopping trolley and a smile automatically covers her face anytime Louis pops up in her mind
She can’t wait to go back home, he promised to come to her after work, he’d probably be waiting right now
A message beeped on her phone, she checked and saw it’s from Arden
How’re you doing?, And how’s my angel faring?
She almost smashed her phone but she calmed herself
“Why the hell will he still text me!, I thought you were dead, bastard!” She said amidst gritted teeth
” Easy” someone said behind her, she slowly turned back and saw Dre
She started pushing her trolley away without uttering a word
“If you think you’re ma-king a fool out of my best friend, then you’re deceiving yourself” Dre’s voice said behind her
That made her heart skip beats, he has a knack for scaring her anytime he’s around
She looked back and saw him walking away throu-gh the next row alre-ady
She t©uçhed her che-st, it almost bounced out of her
Throu-ghout the drive home, she was still scared and just like she guessed, Louis is alre-ady waiting for her, Camila must be at the study
She dropped the bags with her on the ground just beside the door, she walked swiftly to him and gr@bb£d him fast then k!$$£d him hungrily, it’s different from all the k!sses they’ve had
This one is full of many things only the wise can interprete, a short s£ntence for it will be ‘dont leave me k!ss’
Louis broke it quic-kly, having a weird surprised look on his face
“What?, What’s the matter baby?” He asked worriedly, she took his hand and k!$$£d it before hvgging him
“You
won’t leave me no matter what right?” She said, the nee-d for a quic-k answer is obvious In her voice
” Sure, I can’t leave you” Louis replied calmly, hvgging her back so ti-ght
Shane l@yquietly on his be-d that evening, different thoughts roamed his mind about this girl at the restaurant
“Why will she look like my Sam?, Just why?, It’s a coincidence but why will the resemblance be so striking?” He wondered, rolling from one side of the be-d to another
He suddenly stood and took his phone, he checked Samantha’s pictures for the uptenth time today, the only difference is their eyes
Samantha’s blue eyes and the girl’s brown eyes
“Gosh!, I don’t un-derstand what I’m going throu-gh anymore” he inhaled before falling back on the be-d
” Guess I’ll have to be going more frequently than before to the restaurant” he said slowly, letting his lashes hvg each other.
“I sold out ten sweaters, ten mufflers, too many socks and caps today and I earned a lot, I I’ve kept it with the initial one,, it’ll make up for all the money Thomas took from you and surely before the end of this month, you’ll go back to school I promise” Arabella broke the news upon Elena’s arrival
Elena sat sadly like someone depressed
“I got fired cos of lateness” she said slowly
“What!, Why will that cranky boss do that , you’ve never been late” Arabella replied worriedly
” But God is with me today, I got a better job at a better restaurant, the most popular one in town” Elena smiled
” You mean to say..” Arabella looked closely at her. ” Yummy Yummy” they both chorused
“Yes mum, that’s it” she said
“Gosh! , You’re so lucky, how much is the pay?”
“Thirty Euros”
“Even better than the former one, you nee-d to eat, I made scrambled eggs”Bella said
” Yes, I’m starving, and I pray I don’t die of eating scrambled eggs everyday” she replied, standing up
Thomas c@m£ in immediately and they both stood in their sp©ts
“Welcome dad” Elena said slowly
“Welcome hubby” Bella said too
“Keep it to yourselves” he scowled before going in , slamming his door violently as usual
Elena and Bella re-leased the breaths they never knew they were holding
Elena quic-kly got her food from the kitchen and they both quietly went into their room
Dinner at the Diamonds Mansion
“Louis a good news is coming very soon, our company will be going upper in popularity and ma-king money” Alan announced
“Of course it’ll include money” Tanya replied
“Don’t intervene woman, it concerns him most, just prepare yourself” Alan said
” I hope it’ll be what I can take” Louis looked at him
“Of course it is* Alan replied
” I think I alre-ady know what this is all about but I’ll wait patiently till it’ll all start” Miley said and left the dinning
Next day, afternoon**
Cheryl shopped abs£ntmindedly in the boutique and is even oblivious of what she’s doing
She just c@m£ here maybe it’ll help clear thoughts off her head cos she has been brooding about the news her parents suddenly broke yesterday
They never take no for an answer and that’s what scares her most
And getting her married to one damn guy that she’s sure will be ugly as an as-s wipe…gosh!, She can’t even bring herself to imagine it
She dropped the items she picked in frustration and left the boutique but just as she was about to cross in the parking lot to enter her car, a car almost hit her and while trying not to get hit, she fell
Louis was actually talking to Daisy on phone about the type of Se-xy night wear he should buy for her so he wasn’t concentrating, he quic-kly c@m£ out of the car
Cheryl tried to stand but he c@m£ to her and bent over
“I’m sorry, I’m so sorry miss, are you ok?” He said worriedly
Cheryl looked up with the intention of talking rashly at him but what she saw made her throat run dry, so much that she gulped down nothing
He’s handsome!, She can feel her heavy heart beats immediately as she stared
“Miss are you ok?” Louis asked delicately again
“Gosh!” Cheryl thought, focusing on hisl-ips
