Hailey: So, are you satisfied?
Me: Very. I will let my boss know tomorrow morning.
Henry: Oh, your boss was worried that you were not going?
Me: I was reported.
Henry: That sounds bad - but happy you are agreeing to come along.
Hailey: Indeed, we wouldn't want our niece to be in trouble during her last days.
Me: Wait, last day of what?
Hailey: Oh sorry, I rephrased it the wrong way. I just meant that we wouldn't want our niece to be in trouble in the work of her dreams.
Last days of what? Aunt Hailey's words kept lingering in my mind.
I wonder what she meant by that.
I went back to the room to change back into my pajamas and the four of us walked Aunt Hailey and Uncle Henry out to their car.
Me: Bye Aunt and Uncle!
Ziana: Thank you so much for visiting and convincing a little someone.
Alicia: And for the meals - we missed you guys.
Zane: Please visit soon!
Aunt Hailey: We will! See you tomorrow Li!
Uncle Henry: We too are happy to see you all, we will make sure to do this often.
Hailey and Henry: Bye!
Us: Bye!
And they drove away.
Me: Why did you sell me out, guys?!
Zane: To tell you the truth, I wanted you to converse with other people, and I felt that if you went to the dinner party, you would get used to crowded places and maybe...
Alicia: Think about romance from a different perspective. Sorry, Li.
I sighed and pouted.
Me: Naughty siblings.
Zane smiled at me.
Zane: Oh really?
Me: Yeah. But you really can't make me mad.
Ziana: Of course not - with an adorable face like mine, who would feel mad?
We all laughed. I loved this about my family - we could laugh and have fun together.
But enough of my sentimental side...
I need to get my beauty sleep for tomorrow's day.
Me: Okay guys, I will be going to sleep. Good night!
Ziana: Nighty night sis!
Zane: Good night Li!
Alicia: Good night.
I left them to go to my room. I threw myself on my bed and overplayed all the events that happened to me. Nathan's confession, Riana's constant threat, Jonathan's words, attending the dinner party... my life feels a bit rushed.
Before I fell asleep, I got a message from Aunt Hailey:
"HI Li!
We will pick you up at 6:15 p.m. okay?
Love you and see you tomorrow!"
Me: Aunt Hailey, they surely want me out of the house and see the world huh?
FELL ASLEEP
