Cousins Kevin and Georgina Peterson were not so lucky to be in a "family" that respected and wished for their joy. Being 3 years older, Kevin has always felt protective over Georgina. That might stem that they are the last close-linked members of th...

THOMAS POV (Day of the Party)
The night of the party was at hand. We were having the party one of our Event Halls. My mother decided that having the party at the house was too informal. So she had spent the last couple of weeks decorating and planning and catering every inch of the entire event.
And it was a success, everything was running smoothly. Everyone who was anyone was at this party. Even the mayor was here, but I am pretty sure it's because a rumor had been circling around that the Douglas family would be at this very party.
Ahh, just mentioning the Douglas brought an unwanted shudder in me. And I couldn't forget about Brian Montgomery. I hadn't laid eyes on Brian I don't know for over four and a half years. That was a longtime for people who lived in Bensen, New York. Brian and I were never best friends but it was still strange that he had cut all connections with everyone in Bensen. Even more he had up and left to relocate to Germany.
To be honest, I was really looking forward to meeting the Douglas and something tells me we were going to be close friends. After all we are all going to be working together and they are new in town and all and who better to show them the ropes and the new town than me. Apart from Brian of course. But Brian and I were once friends and almost my brother in-law before that brute came to wreck my sister's life.
I shook my head to get rid of the unpleasant memories. I focused my attention on the chatter around me. The ladies were giving me smoldering eyes. I just gave them a wink and went back to sipping my champagne. I said it before and I will say it again, mom really outdid herself. Trying to impress the Douglas siblings everything was the best of the best.
But something was up with mom since a week ago she has been acting weird and even tonight she seems distracted. I have been questioning and checking up on her but she keeps insisting that everything was fine. I will find out what is going on with her later, for tonight my sole focus is on our esteemed guests. If they decide to show up that is.
"Hey man" someone slapped me on my back.
Turning my head I saw it was my best friend Matthew.
"When are the Douglas chaps showing up? Everyone is expecting them. You know that half of the people here are just here to catch a glimpse of them, right?" nodding towards a couple of people were discretely watching the doors.
"Soon man" taking a sip of the liquid. Though that was not exactly true. They never RSVP'd but I was remaining positive that they will at stop by to at least see the people who they would be doing business with. That was what decisive business people do. That is what I would do.
We were still joking around when for some strange reason the whole place went very silent. I looked around the room for the source of the silence. It was a woman. But that was not made me nearly choke on my drink it was who the woman was. Cause standing right in front of me was the infamous and may I add gorgeous Victoria Nnaji.
The dress she was wearing had to be illegal. And I was not the only one who thought so. Michael turned to look at me with a dazed expression
"They are here!"
