CHAPTER SIX
  In the morning
I suddenly opened my eyes seeing a bit blurry when I got up I was alone in bed with Luke nowhere to be seen I looked the clock on Luke side of the bed it was around 9 am I turned then I saw tray of yummy breakfast Luke had left for me some (Orange juice, eggs, sausage and toast) next to the plate I was a paper I took it and it was a letter I read it.
  “Good morning beautiful I’m sorry I couldn’t be next to you when you woke but I didn’t want to disturb your peaceful sleep I have some errands to do after I’ll go straight to my parent’s house please come when you are done the car will be down stairs for you I’ll be waiting
  Yours always Luke”
then I remembered last night scenes and Luke’s mom reaction about mine and Luke’s relationship “First thing first I need to apologies to Mrs Mark about last night” I peeled the sheets away quickly got up from the bed and paced to the bathroom to take a bath.
After I was done I just worn some (Black skinny jeans, classic tan button down shirt and tan wedges) I didn’t wait to have breakfast all was on my mind was to go to the Mark’s resident and apologies to Luke’s mother I was just hoping that she’d be more calmer then angry as she was I took and my phone and went to the elevator pressed the button when the doors slide opened I got in and pressed the ground button when I got to the garage I saw Luke’s driver waiting for me.
I walked to the car smiling “Good morning Max”
  “Good morning Ms Blue” The driver (Max) then opened the door for me
  “Thank you” I got inside then he closed the door behind me and got at the front he stared the door
  “Ms Blue are you going straight to the Mark’s resident?”
I sighed “Yes” I sat back trying to be calm the drive to the Mark’s Resident felt like a long journey suddenly I felt like I should have just stayed at the penthouse and waited for the evening.
The car pulled the gate and Max scanned his ID card on the gate scanner then the gates opened automatically he drove in and stopped at the front he stopped the car got out and opened the car for me
  “Ms Blue” Max whispered
I smiled a bit at Max “Thank you Max” I got out and he closed the door behind me
  “Mr Mark is already inside”
I knotted my and headed to the front door I rang the doorbell and the one of the house keeper opened the door for me
  “Ms Blue welcome”
  “Thank you” I stepped inside “Hmm is Mrs Mark home?”
  “Yes she’s in the kitchen would you like to see her?”
I sighed “Yes please” folding my hands briefly
“This way” she gestured me to where the kitchen was I followed her when we got in the kitchen there she was wearing (Modern black dress with Chanel black heels) I stood a bit distance from her the house keeper went to her “Ma’am Ms Blue is here”
She stopped string the tea “Thank you, Linda you may go”
  “Yes ma’am” then she turned and walked past me leaving me alone with Luke’s mom
I walked towards her and took a deep breathe “Good morning Mrs Mark I just wanted to say that I’m…”
She cut it me off “If I were you I won’t get comfortable” She continued to stir her tea
  “I’m sorry?” I asked
She quickly turned around “I said I wouldn’t be so comfortable if I were you because I know girls like you, you just after my son and my family’s money today it’s gonna be your last day in my son’s life enjoy while you can young lady”
I was shocked to the core my whole body went cold “Mrs Mark I get you must be upset about mine and Luke’s relationship”
  “Relationship what relationship didn’t you hear what I said I wouldn’t let a poor low class girl like you ruin my son’s life you get that” then she walked pasted me leaving me alone in shock immediately I had tears in my eyes
As Mrs Mark I was walking in the hallway she made a phone call
  “Hello dear I wanted to ask you, are still coming to the anniversary party tonight right?”
  “Yes Mrs Mark is everything okay you sound upset”
Mrs Mark sighed “Yes but it’s time to set things right, bye see you tonight” She then hung up the phone having this look on her face
In the kitchen I whipped my tears turned to leave but then I bumped into Jess and Michael who are Smiling so weirdly I looked at both of them I pulled a smiley face so that they don’t notice that I’m actually upset.
  “Hey why you guys smiling at me like that?”
Jess held my hand “You need to come with us right now”
Michael held my other hand “Yes right now”
  “But where?” I kept on looking side by side at both of them
Jess breathed out while rolling her eyes “You’ll see”
  “Come on Brother is still busy with his work” Michael whispered
I gave in to them “Okay”
As we were about to go Luke came from behind “Ah excuse me” He said in a little distance the three of us stopped and turned back “Where are you two taking my woman?” He came pulling me to his side and gave me sweet kiss “Hey beautiful”
I smiled being a bit shy “Hey” Jess and Michael held my hands again pulling me to them and there I was in the middle again
  “Bro don’t worry we will bring her back in one piece I promise”
Jess smiled “Yes brother relax go do your work”
  “Relax, with you two involved that’s highly impossible”
I laughed softly looking at the three of them thinking how different they from each other but yet so close “its okay Luke”
Jess gave Luke a looked of dare “Let’s go Bianca”
  “Babe one kiss please” Luke whispered acting all cute and innocent I gave him a pad kiss on the lips
  “Oh how…” Jess said
  “Cute” Michael finished Jess sentence
The three of us walked away leaving alone in the hallway still looking at us with curious expression on his face I turned back and gave him a sweet smile.
As we got outside I looked at Jess and Michael “Okay where are you two taking me?”
  “Relax we are just taking a stroll” Jess whispered
I quickly stopped “I don’t hike”
Both Jess and Michael laughed their hearts out
  “We are not going for a hike we just want to show you around”
I looked both of them suspiciously “Yeah right you could have said that in front of your brother back there, so what is that you two want to know?”
Michael smirked “Mm”
  “You got us there, the thing is we just want to know how you two started dating” Jess whispered
I raised my eyebrows with wide opened eyes “Huh?”
  “You see if we ask brother about this he will dismiss us like we are not his own siblings by now you should know how he is right?”
I scoffed and sighed
Michael and Jess “Please” they said at same time
I breathed out “Okay fine, at first your brother and I we didn’t get along for about three months then at work there was a function for workers I didn’t plan to go at first but then one of our colleague asked me to be his date so I agreed to accompany him when we got to the function
My mind drifted back to that night:
  “Wow Bianca you organised this event but you want to attend your efforts?”
I smiled at Joey my date “Events are not my thing I just love planning that’s all hey” then the waiter passed holding a glasses of wine in trays Joey stopped him
  “Wine?” He asked
  “Ah no thanks I don’t drink” I replied
He took one glass of wine “Thank you” The waiter walked away then we saw other colleagues of ours we went to them then my eyes landed on your brother as he was staring at me without even blinking everywhere I went his eyes were on me gawking my date and I went for a slow dance I when turned I could see Luke’s facial expression changing but the last straw for him it was when we went to take pictures as my date Joey putted his hand on my waist Luke seeing that he lost it”
Then Luke’s voice cut it me off saying “I wanted to wreck him” I looked at the side smiling he came and hugged me from behind and kissed my neck
  “Romance” Michael whispered smiling
Jess rapped Michael’s elbow “How cute are they, love is in the air”
I shyly smiled “Stop it you two” I looked at the side “And you mister what are you doing here?”
  “What can I say, my ears were twitching” Luke whispered
I raised one eyebrow “Really, twitching?” I asked
  “No I was just missing you” Luke whispered in my ear
I knotted my head “Mm, and?”
Jess and Michael where just staring at us smiling
Luke looked at his siblings “Ah kids you may want to close your eyes it’s about to get PG 18” He tried to kiss me but I pulled away smiling.
  “Not gonna happen forget it” I whispered Jess and Michael laughed “I was busy telling our love story”
  “Why?” Luke looked at his brother and sister “Why do you two want to know our love story create yours and leave ours alone” I smiled laughed while Jess and Michael jaw dropped Luke held my hand “Now Bianca and I we are leaving will see you guys In the evening” then we walked away Luke holding my hand our ride back to the penthouse I was most of the time lost In my thoughts thinking about what Luke’s mother had said when we got at the penthouse I sat down on the couch
Luke looked at me “Baby are you okay?” he came and sat next to me
I scoffed while smiling not looking at him knowing how well he knows me “I’m fine just a little bit tired”
Luke held my face and made me look at him “Babe you forgetting how well I know you something is bothering you did someone say something to you I noticed since we were at my parent’s house you’ve been quite talk to me you know how I hate seeing you like this”
I made fake smile looking at Luke’s eyes “I’m fine, just tired that’s all I swear” I whispered
I curly up on the couch and hugged him tightly resting my head on his chest I could smell his scent and hear his heart beat I held on me tightly I could feel tears building up on my eyes I tried my level best to hold them but the more I thought about Luke’s mother and her words tears automatically started pouring down my face I didn’t make any sound but I think Luke knew as his hands became more and more tighter around me comforting me
Luke kissed my head “I love you” He whispered
  “I love you” I replied with a breaking voice.
