ANASTASIA'S POV :

The next day Drake wanted to drop me at Molly's place. I didn't argue about that cause I was already getting late for work. When we reached the place, I got Down to look at the building. My palms were itching to get back to work. I was damn excited. I didn't turn back to look at Drake but instead ran towards the place.

"A-Ana??" He called out to me. I turned back to give him a questioning look.

"At what time should I come over to pick you? You gotta meet Joseph,right?" He asked me.

Okay, I didn't think about that at all.

"Oh yeah..umm.. I'll take Aura along with me."

"Fine." He gave me a curt nod and drove off.

---------

When I entered the place, Molly waved at me from a distance. I waved back at the wrinkled, yet bright face.

"You knew all along,right?" I whispered at him while we pulled in for a hug.

"Haha,oh yeah!! You think your grandpa or Drake's grandpa could keep this secret away from me?" He winked at me while saying that. I could just smile at him.

"Well,I didn't wanted to spoil your surprise. After all what's life without lovely surprises." He continued.

"Surprise?!!" I shrieked at the word. "It came more of a shock to me!" Hearing me, Molly began to laugh.

"But we, the three old men knew you both would agree to it. As far as in your case,we need to thank your mom. We were well aware that you had never go against your mom's words." He patted me. "Ana, you have always been a mature girl for your age. You were aware about all the struggles your mom had been through in her single parenting journey. We knew you wouldn't like to break her heart neither your grandpa's." I smiled at the truth.

It is true. The family which I have is small. My dad ran out on my mom when I was a new born. My mom has been a strong lady all these years. She never married anyone or even dated. She dedicated her entire 18 years for me...

"So how is life after wedding?" Molly wiggled his eyebrows at me. I couldn't help but laugh at the way he was acting for his age.

"Good,good!" I nodded at him,but not at him. I mean,do you get me? Physically I was there,but mentally ...nah!

"Fine,honey...get going in, all your friends are waiting for you." He patted my shoulders and winked at me.

------------

"Oh my God, you look the same,Ana!!"

I rolled my eyes at Jessie's statement!! It even made me giggle. What does she actually have in her mind about wedding?

Everyone were just drenching me with their wishes and curious questions. From one corner,I could see Aura totally enjoying the scene. I gave her the please-help-me-look and then she stepped in like a fairy.

"Okay guys, back off!! Get back to working!! Let my little sister breathe. She shall answers all your questions ,a little later." She shooed them all away.

----------

While I was stewing the prawns, Aura came to stand near me with her hands crossed against her chest. I knew what she exactly wanted.

"Arghh okay...." And then I narrate everything to her of how I met Joseph, Issa... Basically everything.

"Hmm...so no wonder that git came in search of you at my place,thinking that I might have locked you up in one of my rooms."
