The Adored

Chapter 3

Last Day of freedom, tomorrow thirty-five guys will be welcome into my home and I spent my day in meetings. I walk up the stairs into the women's room. I had to look over the boys again and their files to get a better understanding of them and I wasn't going to do it alone so my parents, grandparents, Legers, and Woodworks helped along. So many guys but my mind is only set on Jean but there is a lot of handsome young men in this pile.

"He looks familiar especially his eyes." I heard grandma say out loud studying the picture in her hand and grandpa nodding his head in agreement. Miss Marlee and Miss Lucy look as well and agree with my grandmother's statement.

I get up and look at this picture of the person that everyone feels they had seen before, "Brandon Piaria, Columbia." I say out loud looking at his picture. He has pretty brown eyes and brown hair and he seems...mysterious? He didn't write much in the description just that he loves math, he can come off shy or secretive depending on how I perceive him but he is just observant, and that he is a spitting image of his mother. I actually find interest in finding out who he is.

"I am still surprised with Jean's and Mike's entry and on top of it all, they were actually selected." mom said looking at their files. Mike Garner is Sir Hale and Sir Ean's son. We grew up together being that sir Hale makes the majority of my clothes and his parents are close friends of my parents. I still find it funny that his parents were competing for my mom's hand in marriage and end up with each other. But I never saw Mike wanting to be royal or be my husband so his entry does shock me as well.

All of a sudden we hear the door of the room open and Shalom walks in, he is uncle Kaden's twin when it comes to their character. Shalom is a little more vocal but you never see him cry or worry, well at least he won't show it if he is. The only person that breaks down his walls is our cousin Kaosara, we don't know how but when she is around they often talked in a little corner and you can see more emotion on his face than usual and his laugh is wholesome.

" Kerttu. We have been waiting for an hour for you. The snacks are going to be gone by the time you come out." He says amongst coming in sounding slightly annoyed.

" I'm sorry Shalom," I turn back to my family. " Can I please be excused?" they nod their heads and I leave with Shalom.

"Finally Her highness is here," Allison said kneeling in front of me and hold my feet.

" Yes yes, I'm here you peasants," I say while waving my hand to acknowledge them. They all laugh and I go to sit down next to Jean. We normally sit like this on certain occasions or on a day when someone just really wants to be surrounded by each other. It feels weird not having Kaosara sitting here as well and sometimes we want Kayde here but she has to be in France. The only problem is when Kayde sees Kaosara they have the tendency to argue but that's due to Kayde being disrespectful. It was so bad one time when Kaosara punched Kayde in her face for something she said and Grandpa and Grandma had to talk to them. I look over and Shalom is writing something and not really engaging with us.

"Anyone heard from Kaosara Lately?" I ask a little loud to get everyone's attention. The majority shakes their head no and I turn to Jean being that she is his younger sister.

" I talked to her last week if that helps," Jean answered.

" I talked to her this morning, she asked how everyone is and sends her love," Shalom says not looking up from what he is doing. So I get up and go and grab a cell to call her and put her on speaker so it feels like she is here.

The phone rings a couple of times and I feel she isn't going to answer, right when I was going to end the call she answers, " Hello?"

" Heyyy Kaosara!" Allison yells into the phone and so does Ivy, Mikerlande, Vishal, Ryan, and Max.
