Her Little Secret ✔️

10~ I Guess that's A No Then

Chapter Ten

"It's nice to see you again Mr. and Mrs. Caverly! Oh and congratulations on the engagement!"

I found myself silently twitching as my father held his new fiancees waist. The way he politely smiles and shook everybody's hand when they congratulate him with his marriage while I watched them be happy and be those oh so happy couple while I on the other hands had my mind on what happened an hour ago

Suddenly I jumped when I felt a hand snake up to my waist where I found Chris now beside me with a smile

"Better smile Checkers, Don't want you mother to think you'd murder her if she says her vows on the wedding"

"Chris just shut up" I muttered before I cast my eyes towards Giselle who was laughing at Pearls jokes. As they stood together, It looked more like they were best friend- being that they probably have the same age. Other than that, I couldn't stop myself from thinking about what Aubrey had said. It was crazy. Stupid in fact that to think Andy would like me in a way that he would find a woman that is exactly a look a like. Watching Giselle by now, I didn't really see any similarities other than the fact that we both shared the same hair and eye color. But the words Chris and Aubrey told me made my head hurt so much, I just wanted to gulp down the bottle of wine in front of us but then again,my life had to stop  when I'm basically prevented to drink alcohol

God this is torturous

"Sally"

Out of a sudden, I was back to reality only to see everyone's eyes on me, Chris who took a seat beside me smirked while Aubrey gave me knowing look as if she knew I was thinking about it again

Mentally shaking my head empty, I look at my father expectantly "Did you say something father?"

Looking at my father who was around his late fifties, I began to realize he might look young for his age but still, the fact that he was about to get married to a woman not much older than her was still shocking as ever

With a sigh, My father looked at me with a blank expression "I said how's School? Have you found a good college to attend?"

Clearing m my throat in discomfort, my eyes suddenly found Aubrey who was silently sipping her wine while she never looked at me, knowing she wouldn't I replied with a mumble "Yeah but I thought it would be nice to take a year off maybe..."

"Have you thought about finding a job at least?"

"Dad" Damien interjected "How about you guys? How was your trip?" He looked at Pearl expectantly and knowing she'd gladly speak up began to chatter away had her eyes lit up like a Christmas tree. Giving my brother a grateful smile, I silently sighed and I began to look at the room. It was widely elegant in the color red velvet. Everything seems to scream money and pretty much it was my fathers idea for this . After we left the house, Chris informed us that my dad and his fiancee had come home earlier than expected. Now our dinner has turned into one big fat happy family. They said it wold give us a big surprised. And surprised we were

Minutes later a waiter began to walk towards us, finely dressed in his uniform as he took our orders and as much as I wanted to order steak, I had no clue what they just scribbled in their menu. I looked patiently, everything didn't really make sense

"They're Italian Checkers" Chris whispered and I decided to ignore him. I stared at the menu while others began to give out their orders and when the waiter turned my way, I decided to give out my best to find a food that looked appealing for my tummy

"Where the fuck is the steak" I grumbled. Chris who looked at me shook his head before he began to speak to the waiter in what I was guessing was Italian while I on the other hand looked at him in confusion when the waiter left
