Love in the sun

28

The next day at the beach was worth it.

Nathan was able to pull Uriel aside from the group. "You're still going ahead with the wedding?"

"Why won't I?" She asked "You obviously don't live Paul, he doesn't love you. So why?" She narrowed her eyes "What makes you think that Paul doesn't love me?" He brushed his face with his palms.

Of course she's been jealous of him and Matilda that she wasn't able to notice that there's something going on between Paul and Matilda.

"That's a story for another day. Just answer me."

"What do you expect me to do Nate?" She inquired "Call it off. We can move to a different country. No one will find us. We'll be happy."

"Have a couple of kids and grow old together." He took her hand and kissed the back of it "I love you." She removed it from his grip "I've been hurt once Nate."

"It shouldn't have happened I know but now everything's different." She sighed "Why don't you make Paul call it off? His bachelor party should be around the corner."

"He hasn't even spoken a word about a bachelor party babe. That's a sign that he is not interested."

"He could be too busy Nate. We should move on and avoid anymore heartache." It was so hard for her to say that "I know you love me Uriel. You told me some days back." Her eyes grew wide with shock

"When?"

"The day you had dinner at my house. When you were about to sleep." Her heart pounded "It could have been for anyone....It's for Paul and most certainly not for you."

"Alright just stop." He sighed and ran a hand through his hair "Stop faking. I know you better than anyone else and you'll call of the engagement soon. I promise."

He left her standing at the spot where she stood.

"Hey...mum." Nathan groaned inwardly, he's been talking to Regina, Ashley and Matilda about the next steps to take.

"How are you?"

"I'm good and you? Sorry I haven't been able to call as often as I should."

"Good to hear how sorry you are kiddo but you should learn how to call often."

"I'll start practicing that from tomorrow. How's home?" He changed the topic "We're good. I called to inform you that we'll be close to you by tomorrow."

"WHAT!?"

"The Bairds just got to Italy today right?" She asked as though she was about stating a world theory "I heard so."

"We were thinking...we could familiarize ourselves with Paul's fiancee and Italy before the wedding." Nathan almost tossed his phone away "Are you sure about this?"

"Of course."

"When will you guys be here? I'm just curious. Is Zandra coming along?"

"All three of us. We should be there in two days. Be ready for us. I can't wait to see that villa you bought."

"Yeah. I'll get the rooms ready. Can't wait to see you guys."

"Me too baby. I've got packing to do. Bye bye."

"Yeah bye." He hung up and took raged breaths to calm himself before approaching the group in his house  "I've got news."

"What is it?" Regina asked "My parents will be here in two days with my sister."

"I thought they won't be present until it's time for Paul's wedding." Matilda replied "Thought so too but someone in the family thought that it'd be a great idea to come since the Bairds arrived today."

"The wedding is in five days and with this. We don't have much time left."

Is anyone excited for Nathaniel's family to make an entrance.
