Enjoy!

Lily P.O.V
"Hey! How's the kids doing?" I asked Jade after entering her house.


"They are sleeping. How's it going?" Jade asked as I made myself comfortable on her couch.


Her living room was the best place in the whole house. It has a fireplace in the center instead of a TV or L.E.D. There are sofas and couches around the fireplaces. She lit the fireplaces and started to make hot chocolate for the both of us behind the kitchen counter.


I sighed.


"It has been really hectic. There's a dance competition this Monday and me and the girls have been working our butts off for this" I told her.


"You going to perform?" She looked at me with her baby blue eyes.


"Of course not. You know me Jade, I don't perform. Just teach others" I shrugged.


She muttered a "right" and sat beside me with two cups of hot chocolate and a bowl of BBQ chips. She gave one cup to me and started sipping her own.


"Jade, are you sure you don't want anything to do with the twins' father? I mean, maybe he just...panicked or something. I mean..." I tried to reason with her but she cut me off.


"No Lily! He clearly denied them. He refused to believe they were his?! He didn't even ask for some sort of DNA or paternity test! I don't want to do anything with him anymore. I don't care if I'm doing something wrong. I don't care anymore" Jade said angrily.


She knew she couldn't do this. Keep a father away from his children but it wasn't just her fault, so maybe, he deserved it.


Jade cleared her throat and looked at me carefully.


"Uh Lily. About Sam..." She gulped. "What are we going to do about it? The doctors say he needs the surgery. I...have some money. My savings, but they aren't enough" She looked down.
  

"I've been saving up as well" We both realized even our money combined, It would not be enough. We needed more. Sam is our best friend. He got into an accident and have been in the hospital.


"Don't worry. I'll think of something" I reassured her.


After finishing my hot chocolate and the food, I stood up and bid my goodbye to Jade.


"Say Hello to the twins for me!" I said and made my way towards my car.

It was 2 in the afternoon and I was bored out of my mind. I didn't have work this week because apparently, Maria was busy. She was going on a vacation with her Husband. So she gave us all off. Now I was just sitting watching supernatural and eating like a person who hadn't had decent food for months.


Just as I got up from the bed to make myself a cup of tea, I heard a knock on the door.


"Who could it be?" I asked myself and made my way to the door.


I opened it and grinned


"Uncle David! It's been ages" I hugged him "How's Aunt Sasha?"


"She's absolutely fine my dear. I actually have some things to discuss with you. Can I come in?" He asked, smiling.
  

"Oh where are my manners?! Of course come in, come in" He came in and I led the way to the living room. He made himself comfortable on the sofa.


"Do you want coffee or tea?" I asked him.


"Tea would be nice" He answered and set the water to boil for the tea.


I came and sat in front of him.


"So..." I started "What do you want to discuss?"


He hesitated and then sighed



Something's up



"Do you know about William's will?" He asked cautiously.


I looked at him. Shocked.


"You...you....he isn't dead" I stuttered.


He just looked at me sadly.


"He isn't dead okay? He...he can't be" I murmured the last part to myself softly.


Uncle David looked like he was struggling with what to say next,
"No. He isn't dead" He finally said.



I stood up.



"How can you be so sure?" I asked him.


He didn't...by any chance, know his whereabouts, right?


"Please don't start questioning me Lily." He requested pleadingly "Aren't you relieved that your father's okay?"


"Relieved? RELIEVED?" I almost yelled. "You know what? No. I'm not relieved. In fact, I don't give a shit if he's okay or not. He can go to hell for all I care"


"He left Uncle David" I continued bitterly "He left. When I was just 10. Who does that? And right after Mom's death too!"


"Look Lily, I understand-''


"No you don't" I cut in sharply.


"-but he had a reason. I mean, he...he must have had a reason" His little slip didn't go unnoticed by me.


"You know his whereabouts, don't you?" I asked doubtfully.



He avoided my gaze.



My suspicion was confirmed.


"Great! Just great!" I sighed.


"Lily, would you just listen to his will? Or...to be more specific Gina's will" He said cautiously.


"What? But...I already know about her will. Dad told me after the funeral." I asked, confused.


"Well, he hid something from you." He stated simply.


"What is it?" I asked, curiosity getting the best of me.


"She wanted you to have an arranged marriage. And apparently, she already arranged it before you were even born. It was her last wish. She wanted you to get married to my son, Damon Jordan King" He said the name proudly.



I sat there. In shock. And then I started laughing.


"This has got to be a joke" I said, still chuckling. "You think....you think I'll marry a stranger just because it was my mother's last wish?"


Uncle David's eyes widened. He looked almost horrified.


"You...you're not...not going fulfill your mother's last wish?"


"Obviously not. Look, I loved my mother, still do. And I'm also a very emotional person but this isn't an emotional decision, this is stupidity. She's not here anymore, I've finally come to peace with it. I'm not going to ruin my life by marrying a stranger for someone who's not even alive. I may seem a bit harsh but this is what happens when you lose both of your parents at an early age. Life did this to me." I said, my expression serious.



He sighed.


"Well...there's no point of me staying here anymore so I'll just leave. But don't think I'm giving up! Anyway, thanks for the tea you never made." He smiled at the end and started to make his way to the front door.


"Oh shit! Sorry about that!" I yelled and ran towards the kitchen but the damage was done. I sighed and tuned off the stove.



Today was a strange day, I thought as I walked back towards my bedroom

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

I'm sorry, I know its short but I've been a little busy.
Anyway, Did you guys liked it? What do you think? What happened to Lily's father? And do you guys think she was rude to Uncle David?
Or did he deserved it?


Let's ask some basic questions though (non-related to the book)
1. What's your favorite movie and why
?


2. Do you guys watch any T.v series? You're favorite? (Mine's supernatural of course!)


3. Worst day of your life and why? (Mine was a month back, my teacher called me retarded and mental patient in front of the whole class because I couldn't answer a question. I know its not that bad but I was super hurt by that)
