Chapter 57: Trouble in Paradise

~Trinity's POV~

"I'm really glad you and Sebastian were able to come because for a moment there I thought it would just be you by yourself." Marlena said as we were looking at candles to buy

"At first he wasn't coming but after some convincing and persuasion he finally agrees. Plus, I told him the good thing is we aren't too far from home so we don't have to worry about long distance travel." I said as Nicole and her sister, Niveah.

"You ladies have come back from the bathroom, I thought you two got stuck in the toilet." Marlena said as she gave Nicole her candle she was holding for her

"Trinity, will you be getting anything?" Niveah asked me

"Yeah I'll get these two that I like, I was hoping Sebastian would come back inside so he can pick out one."

"He's outside on the phone." She said as I shook my head

"That man will talk the life out of those batteries."

"He's been on it all morning, is that an everyday thing?"

"Sometimes depending on what day it is, but that's nothing once he starts talking about himself."

Later on we went back to the room as I put the candles up on the counter while Sebastian sat on the couch and started taking his shoes off
"I have a special request for you." I said as he stretched out on the couch

"Yes?"

"Would you mind limiting your phone calls on the discussion of money, it's a little concerning to others."

"How so?"

"Well, you may not see it but you come off as being greedy and money driven when that's all you're talking about and you lack empathy for others because all you care about is money."

"Well honey I am money driven, I have five kids to take care of, plus you, two lazy ass dogs that don't do shit but sleep, eat, and chew up the furniture, an anaconda, which by the way the food and tank for those things is absolutely ridiculous. I went to the store last week to get a new tank and I paid five hundred dollars for the same tank but with plexiglass, can you believe that.
We just hired a new maid, the neighbor's dog keeps ripping a hole in the fence, tearing up our backyard and your garden, so I have to replace that and the front sprinkler system isn't working, and that was eight hundred dollars wasted, the damn thing hasn't worked since you had the twins and I've replaced it going on the fourth time, so pardon my lack of social awareness I'll do better." He said as I sat on the couch with him as he wrapped his arms around me and kissed my neck

"I'm sorry to aggravate you."

"I understand, but might I say you smell heavenly." He said sniffing my neck

"Thank you, I would think by now I would smell like the outdoors."

"Not at all, you smell sweet like honey."
