Where it all began

(Please read the description before reading the story)

{ENGLISH IS NOT MY FIRST LANGUAGE}

Anastasia is my name but I'm known as sia in short, usually my friends call me Stassi. My life was a wreck a few years ago & I got caught up in a life threatening incident during a vacation in Colombia three years ago & now I'm heading to the one place I never thought I'd go COLOMBIA not because I wanted to but because I had to, my one & only big brother in the whole wide world is getting married & he choose a Colombian bride, I really didn't want to go back but I had no option no one knew what went down on my life three years back so I had to just pretend everything was cool because if my parents ever find out about the past, I'm dead for good.

I tied up my beach blonde hair up in a bun as I headed to the airport with my best friend Julie. She was the only person apart from Sarah who knew what happened three years ago, because Sarah was there with me when it happened but after that incident I never saw Sarah again, because I lived in California & Sarah was from Texas.

Julie was 5 foot seven & really skinny, her hair was naturally curly & she keeps it short. She like it that way easy to maintain it seems & it accentuate her long neck as for me, I'm 5 foot five & my hair was naturally black but I dyed it blonde 3 years back & from then on I always keep it blonde. I didn't want to see my natural hair colour because it reminded me of the trauma I faced.

"Can't belief.....I'm going back there" I growled as we took our respective seats on the plane.

"I know you are pissed but it's been three years Stassi, so take a chill pill" Julie comforted me as the plane took off, I felt my heart pumping louder & louder. After what seemed to be the longest flight ever we reached Bogota the capital of Colombia.

"Stassi, we are here" Julie shook me as I opened my weary eyes & looked around, we were finally here in Colombia. I gave a deep sigh as I unbuckled my seat belt & stood up as the air hostess helped me with my trolley, it was a beautiful day & there was something about Colombia even though I had bad memories in this country returning back after three years brought a smile to my face.

"Thank god we are in Bogota, not Rionegro" I said as we got down from the place, Rionegro was the place where the tragedy of my life happened.

"See you are smiling, that's a start" Julie chuckled as we sat on the cab & headed to the hotel where my parents were staying, the wedding was in two days at San Andres but my brother's fiancé was from Bogota so her family wanted to host a family dinner tonight with the closest members of their family as she was the only child & her grandparents were too old to travel to San Andres.

It took about 20 minutes to reach the hotel from the airport & I was already exhausted from the flight, as soon as we reached I headed towards the hotel room where me & Julie will be sharing for the night & took a warm shower as I felt the weight of the journey getting off my shoulders "baby" mom smiled as soon as I got out from the shower "mom" I muttered, I didn't expect to see her.

"What took you guys so long?" She asked "our flight was delayed but we are here, aren't we" I murmured as I blow dried my hair.

"Your dad is already at Mariana's with your brother, he expects to see us in an hour" she mentioned.

"But mom, we just got here" I looked at her.

"I know baby but you know your dad, and you guys are already 2 hours behind schedule" she reminded me as I looked at the clock & saw that it was already 5pm & the dinner party starts by 7 o'clock.

"Okay, give us 30 me & Julie will be done by then" I furrowed my brows as mom nodded & walked out of our bedroom as me & Julie dressed up as quickly as we could & headed towards the cab with mom.

Luckily we reached before the guests arrived & I was officially introduced to mr & mrs Lopez ie Mariana, my big brother fiancé parents. They were super excited to see me because Mariana was the only child & now she has a younger sister in me.

"So my baby sister is here" josh beamed as he came & hugged me tight, I'm 25 & josh is 30 we were 5 years apart. The reason why he treats me like a baby even though I'm not a teenager anymore.

"Stop! calling me that" I chuckled as I hugged him back "you will always be my baby sister" he chuckled low as he tried to mess up my hair.

"Hey, Stop it" I giggled as I pushed him & adjusted my neatly tied bun.

"The guests will be arriving soon, I'm really excited for you to meet Mariana grandparents" he smiled as he looked down on me, he was 5 foot eleven & even though I was wearing my 3 inch heels, I was still 5 foot eight & I know he was pleased.

"I heard they are like in their 90's right?" I looked up at him as he nodded "her grandma is 90 & grandpa 93, that's the reason why today's dinner is very important...behave" he joked as he walked towards Mariana who was busy setting the tables.

"When I heard about family gathering, I didn't know there will be like a hundred guest" Julie said as she walked up to me.

"I know right?" I mumbled as I sipped my drink.

"But I like it, less formal more casual" she chuckled as she sat down on the couch beside me as we were observing the people in the backyard having a good time, it was like us & only Mariana's grandparents were not enjoying the party.

"Guess you & I are on our 90's as well" I joked as Julie started to giggle.

"Hey, do you see that?" She suddenly stops giggling as she points towards the crowd.

"See what?" I looked at her confusingly.

"I just saw a man & he's hot" she squeaked.

"What really?" I chuckled.

"Yeah, wish me luck" she winked as she grabbed her glass & walked away from me, leaving me all alone. I was busy playing games in my phone when Julie interrupted me "Stassi" she called as she stood in front of me "yeah" I mumbled as I looked up at her "this is Francisco, he's Mariana first cousin" she introduced me to a guy in a grey suit & to be honest he was good looking.

"Hi" I stood up as I shook his hand "Stassi" I introduced myself.

"The groom's sister" he beamed "it's nice to finally meet you in person, to be honest I never thought josh would have a sister like you" he smirked.

"Well never thought even Mariana would have a cousin like you" I chuckled as he chuckled low "I like this one" he mumbled as he looked at Julie who started to giggle "and I like you too" she grinned.

It was a long night of food & drinks but me, Julie & Francisco had a really good time together, he told us a little about his background as a pilot in the force & it was awesome. The journeys & the experiences in his life was surreal, it was like his life is an ongoing adventure & I realised a lifetime is not enough to live it all. It was already mid night & people started to leave, Francisco told us he was looking forward to seeing us on San Andreas for the wedding & so was me & Julie. I liked him as a friend because he was friendly, fun & funny but I had a feeling Julie liked him a little bit more in the other way & I don't blame her for that he was an eye candy.
