"Gemma, your roast chicken is still the best!" Aunt Karen praises mum amd my mum smiled back at her.
"Thank you. I wish you brought some of your beef stew." mum asks her.
"I really am in a hurry to get here. I was so excited that I didn't noticed I didn't brought anything." Aunt Karen told her.
"It's okay. Maybe next time we're going to your new home here." mum told her.
"Of course! We would love to." Aunt Karen says and I smiled.
"Mum, you should've seen how extravagant their house is! It's so big!" I beamed. "And oh, Mike has an iPhone." I added and my mum rolled her eyes.
"I'm not getting you an iPhone." mum told me and I frowned. They all laughed at my expression and I rolled my eyes and joined them laughing.
"Anyway Dani, can you please tell me why Mike got suspended?" Aunt Karen asked me and my eyes widen. I looked at Michael for help.
"Mum, I told you that I'm explaining it to you later." Mike told her and I sighed in relief.
"Okay." she sighed. "Anyway, what are you up to now?" Aunt Karen asked us with a smile.
"Well Chip is promoted as the company manager just a few months ago and I just started a business with my sister in the Philippines." mum told Aunt Karen.
"Really? Wow! Congratulations!" she claps her hands slightly.
"Thank you," mum told her with a smile.
"Your a lady now Dani. You look like uh," she looks at mum and dad. "I think your mum." she said and we laughed.
"I look like dad Aunt." I told her and we laughed again.
Mum stood up and cleared the table. When she came back, she serves a chocolate cake and I easily craved.
"Wow," Michael said as soon as he took a bite from his cake. "This is so good." he praises.
"Thank you Mike." mum smiles at him.
"Anyway, Mike." dad spoke and we all looked up to him. "You and y daughter are classmates right?" dad asks.
"Oh, I just switched sections." Mike confidently answered and his mum's eyes widen.
"Switched sections?" Aunt Karen asked in confusion.
"Yes mum. It's because of the suspension." he told his mother and she nodded. He's still Mike. The Mike I know last five years. He still can't lie to his mother.
"Don't you think it can affect your grades?" dad asked him.
"Yes uncle. But I'm still hoping I can make it." he answered wittily. My dad just nodded and we are focused on the delicious cake mum made.
As soon as we finished, Michael and dad sat down on the couch in the living room watching something that I don't have an interest with. I helped mum and Aunt Karen clear the table.
Minutes later, we joined the two boys on in the living room.
I sat between my dad and my mum and Aunt Karen sat down beside Michael.
Mum told them about my grandma's house in Brisbane. She showed her a picture in her iPhone, showing how extravagant grandma's place is. Aunt Karen passed me the iPhone and I told mum, "I still don't know why you're not giving me an iPhone." and we all laughed.
A doorbell interrupts us and my dad stood up, telling us he's going to open the door.
Dad entered with, oh no.
"Karen, I want to you meet Luke. Danielle's bestfriend." he said and Luke's eyes widen when he saw Michael.
"Hi Luke! I've heard so many good things about you last five years!" Aunt Karen laughs and my parents joined her. Luke simply replied in gratitude.
Damn. What is this life? What if they fought in here? In front of our parents. No, no, no.
"Do you know each other?" mum asked Luke and Mike. Yep. They know each other so much mother. They even fought in school!
"Yes." "No." they both answered in chorus. Mike's mum and my parents looked at them, comfused.
"Yes, I know him Aunt Gemma." Mike smiled but Luke frowned. Uh oh, wrong move Mike.
"Well that's nice!" dad said. I know he noticed the tension.
"Yeah, right." Luke said, rolling his eyes.
"Anyway, what made you come here Luke?" I asked him.
"Nothing. Just to give you your notebook." he said and handed me my blue notebook.
"Thanks," I smiled at him.
"Yeah," he said. "I'm leaving." he told us and disappeared before saying goodbye. Oh no.
"He's weird tonight. What happened Danielle?" mum asked me.
"I don't know. I'll ask his girlfriend later." I told her, pretending not to know what the real reason is.
"Luke has a girlfriend?" dad asks. Yeah, it was me in my dream last night.
"Yeah. She's gorgeous." I smiled. "And she's in the group." I added.
"Since when?" mum asks.
"I don't know. Maybe a month? I'm not sure. They just told the group the last day." I said.
"Your father did that! He and your mother hid their relationship to us for like," she thinks. "A year!" she said and they all laughed.
"You did?" I asked my parents. Wow.
"Yeah," they laughed.
.....
"Good night" mum and dad kissed my cheek as they walk to their room.
I locked the door in my bedroom and changed into pajamas.
I laid down on the bed and checked my phone. 11:45 p.m I immediately dialed Luke's number but I'm directed to his voicemail.
I called him again but he still doesn't answer. I called him again and again but I'm always directed to his voicemail.
12:07 a.m
I called him one last time but his phone just kept on ringing.
