Can Love Happens Twice

Christi vs Kathy

Henry's POV

"Both Your parents and grandparents love story are like something from fairytale. Incredible!" I said after getting into the car

"My grandparents marriage was the only love marriage in their generation and my parents' in their generation. Everyone used to tease me from childhood, Pa married a woman from different community, dad married a woman from different state and I would marry someone from different country.

Whenever anyone tease like that Siddhu uncle used to get angry. He wanted me to get married to Rishabh and live in front of his eyes. Rishabh's and Siddhu uncle's houses are next to each other. Uncle loves me so much, he couldn't digest that I fell in love with a foreigner. That's why uncle didn't even come to our marriage. He was angry with grandpa for agreeing to this marriage. He walked out on Pa

He was drowned in guilt. His parents died when he was very young. Pa never differentiated him from dad, gave him best life. He didn't come to Pa's only grand daughter's wedding. He loves me more than his own son, Cherry " Jo said sadly

"Now everything is fine, it's in the past. Don't think too much of it" i said

Next week was busy. Jason invited us to his farmhouse on Saturday.

Jo left saying she has work and will join evening. I had my security personal follow her. After Drew's death I increased security. I have security for Jason and Judson Christi too. They don't know. I don't want them worried. By the time I reached Judson and Christi were there sitting in the hammock. Jason and Kathy were sitting in chairs, drinking soda

"Where is Jo? You said Henry will pick her" Kathy asked Jason

"Today is 1st Saturday" Christi said

"I forgot, she disappears every 1st Saturday right" Kathy said laughing . I didn't like the way she said 

"She will join later" Christi said uncomfortably

We had lunch and were chatting randomly

"I need to go for shopping, can you join me if it's ok with you. Jo doesn't like, remember what happened last time we went out with her" she said laughing

"What happened" I asked. I wanted to know what Kathy is going to tell about Jo. I'm sure she is going to tell something negative 

"Jo doesn't like shopping, she has wonderful mom with amazing fashion sense. Even if we shop whole California we don't find those designs " Christi defended

"There was a store going out of business, everything was on sale. I took Christi and Jo with me. Instead of shopping, Jo was chatting with the store owner asking about business. He was so annoyed that I was embarrassed to go there after that. It would have been great deal, everything would have been up to 90% sale after a month" Kathy said

Judson looked uncomfortable, Jason was more uncomfortable with her behavior. He looked at me apologetically

"She was sad that he was closing his business. At first he was annoyed little, later he explained what went wrong" Christi said

"What is the use of that discussion, he was already hurt and it's like opening old wounds" Kathy argued

"Did Jo tell she would help him?" I asked Christi

"Yes, she stayed in that store and asked us to carry on with our shopping" Christi replied

"Then it's worth discussing, I'm sure he is doing great with business now" i said

"No way Henry, I understand Jo helped our company but this is different. You are over estimating Jo" Kathy said

"Why are we discussing this, we are here to enjoy weekend" Jason said trying to divert
