Sunflower

Chapter 3

"Ohh! My dearest granddaughter.Look how you have grown!!"Grandmother said while grabbing me into a tight hug.I could barely breath from her embrace."I knew you would become a beautiful flower ."She said after giving me a change to breath .I only gave a sweet smile knowing that she is too overly happy to see us.Unfortunately my grandparents are also living in town.Mother phone them yesterday inviting them over for a sunday dinner.Mother cooked all morning,making roast potatoes,cooked in chicken,all kinds of vegetables and the dessert was more drooly for me. I could barely keep out of the kitchen.

"I am so glad you guys good make it. Me and the children are so happy to see you. And now that we also live in the same town we should often have dinner parties and gatherings." Mother said smiling widely. I wasn't so excited about that but was glad they were here for mother." Honey would you please go set the table outside, dinner is almost ready."She commanded. I obeyed and quickly made my way to the back yard. I start placing all the the dishes and forks, afterwards the napkins and glasses. As I was making sure everything is in place, a bush caught my eyes. Sunflowers was lightly blowing in the wind. It was beautiful.

Laughter snapped me out of my daydreaming. Mother come out with a casserole in hands followed by grandmother with a glass bowl filled with vegetables and grandpa right behind with the chicken. All of them busy talking and laughing.I stood in my place admiring them.Mom looked happy and even looked good with her waving blond hair and summer dress. 

"Sweetie where is Ethan ,I didn't see him this morning ?" Mother asked while everyone was sitting down for dinner .I looked at her with confusion .He wasn't in his room this morning or last night.Before I could answer a loud splash was heard,followed with music and a crowd of young teens laughing and screaming from next door.Everyone looked as if it all happened in our backyard."These youngsters they don't know what is family time ."Grandmother said with a scoff ."It's alright mother we can still enjoy dinner by ignoring them ." Mother said with a hopefull smile .

After dinner mother and grandmother with grandfather went for a tour throw the house talking about everything they want to change .As for me cleaned up the table .My mind was wondering where Ethan is ,he couldn't possibly be out with friends .A ball bounce right over the wall and landed on the bush with the sunflowers."Yo baby cakes, would you throw the ball back please ?"The blue eye boy said.I was in a daze ,cheeks red and a stupid smile plastered on my face .I walked over picking the ball up to throw it over .I made my way closer to the boy seeing his eyes following my every move .He was smiling softly ,waiting firmly for the ball ."Sorry but this is my yard and that was my favorite flowers you ruined .You can have the ball back when I have new sunflowers ."I said heading into the house closing the door behind me ,not to mention the big smile on my face .But for him he looked annoyed ,the smiled falling off his beautiful face . Did I just do that .
