"Are you ready?" I asked Daniel who was standing next to me.
He swallows the lump on his throat. "Y-Yeah."
I look at the familiar building standing in front of us. I take in a deep breathe and the hand interlocked with mine gives me a comforting squeeze. I look up to meet his blue eyes and he smiles down at me.
"Let's go get my nephew." Adrian stated before we escalate the front stairs. Adrian pressed the doorbell and the door swings open.
"Jane!" I look up to meet with a familiar pair of expresso colored eyes.
He wraps me into a tight hug and lifts me up in the air. "Hey Oscar."
He sets me down and beams a smile at me. He was grinning from ear to ear.
"Come in." He opens the door wider for us and we step inside. Memories filled my mind as my eyes wondered around the familiar building.
"Oscar, what's are you still doing here?" I ask a bit curious. "I thought you had left."
"I did but when I heard Linda had passed away I thought I come back. I was hoping to find you but Jennifer told me you had left." Oscar explains. "I was going to leave but Jennifer isn't like Linda. She's not very kind to the kids and so I decided to stay to help the kids deal with Jennifer."
"I never like her. Where is she anyway?" I ask.
Oscar smiles mischievously. "She received a call from the police office telling her she needed to go down to the station."
"You didn't." Oscar nods and I begin to laugh.
"It was Kennedy's birthday and she wouldn't let us have it if she was here so I did what I had to do." Oscar defends with an innocent shrug.
"You haven't changed one bit." I state as I playfully slap his arm.
Oscar smiles down at me. "You either."
Suddenly someone clears their throats and I turn to face Adrian. I almost forgot him and Daniel were here.
"Adrian, Daniel meet Oscar. He and I were best friends before I left the orphanage." I state.
Oscar throws his arm over my shoulder and pulls me closer to him causing Adrian's jaw to clench. "Jane and I were the greatest pranksters here. Most of our pranks were for Jennifer because she was a witch. Remember when we covered her in paint?"
I snicker at the memory. "One of our greatest pranks." Oscar and I high five each other.
"So who are your friends?" Oscar asks turning to look at Daniel and Adrian. I move out of Oscar's grip.
"Oscar meet Adrian and Daniel." I introduce. "My fiancé and future in law."
"Fiancé? Future in law?" Oscar asks with a raised eyebrow.
Adrian smirks as he wraps his arms around me possessively and kisses my forehead. "Yeah, Jane and I are getting married."
"Haven't you heard? It's been all over the news." Daniel adds playing along with his brother. "It's going to be the wedding of the century."
"News?" Oscar seemed more confused.
"Hi, I'm Daniel McKeller and this is my brother Adrian–."
"McKeller." Adrian finishes.
I roll my eyes at how childish these two are being. And this my friends is what happens when Adrian gets jealous.
"McKeller? As in McKeller Industries?" Oscar asks and they nod with smirks splattered on their faces.
