" Aiden woke up early on Friday morning. It was the day before Cole's wedding, and Cole and the guys had a whole night planned of drinking and partying. He knew he needed to get drunk out of his mind with all that had happened. Karlie was going to marry Anthony despite all his efforts. He was beyond angry right now. Anger didn't explain how he felt.
He got up out of bed and let out a deep sigh. It was time to get his day started. He hopped into the shower, took a bath, and washed his hair. He wasn't feeling well. He was a little lightheaded. It may be because it had been over 24 hours since his last meal. "I can't keep doing this to myself," he thought. He wished he knew a way for both him and Karlie to get their happy ending.
He towel off and got dressed, then went downstairs. "Hi," he said as he walked into the kitchen. "Who are you?" he asked the lady. "Hi, I'm Isabella. I'll be filling in for Mary. She had a family emergency." "Okay, no problem," he replied.
He knew change was inevitable, but he liked it when Mary was there. "Okay, can I make you a plate, Master?" she asked. She looked way too young to be the head of the staff. He was skeptical, but he said, "Certainly," and she made pancakes, eggs, and a fruit bowl.
"Isabella, did Mary leave a list of all my allergies with you? So when you're preparing my meals, you'll be aware?" he asked.

"Yes, Master," she replied. Okay, he ate and got up, ready to leave. He saw his dad. "Aiden, a moment, please." "Not now, father. I have to get to Cole's. It's the day before the wedding. For a month, I allowed us not to speak, but you are still my son." "I do understand that, and I know we need to talk because I am going to move out." When he said that, his father was shocked beyond words. He couldn't say anything. "I'm sure we can talk when I get back. I have to go, father." He left.
He had been driving himself around lately, but today he wasn't feeling it. He got into the car and told Carlos, "Take me to Cole's." "Sure, sir," he drove off. Aiden was lost in thoughts. He wished he could have his life the way he wanted. Why couldn't he and Karlie be together? This fucked up society, it made no sense to him funny thing is he had never dear to question it not until he found Karlie.
