1305 Words
They set off for the town.
After along drive, they finally came to halt to grab something to eat for lunch
at a certain restaurant.
The car parked in the parking lot. They all hopped out of the car and headed to the restaurant.
The waitress directed them to the table as they settled. Another waitress gave them the menu.
The food they ordered was brought in. By only looks, the aroma was wetting the mouth. After digging in, they continued their journey.
The car was really boring because Eclaus never wanted any conversation in the car to a reason he didn't clarify to the others.
Whitney, Keren and Junior were busy on their phones while Julie was deeped in an ocean of boredom since she didn't have a phone to engage in something.
So, she decided to take a nap maybe she could wake up when they have already arrived at the grand's place.
**
When they reached at the venue, Julie was woken up by large beatings on the back by Junior.
" Hey wake up, wake up, you sleep as of you are a corpse. " Junior mummered in an icy torn totally devastated by doing so.
When she rose, it was as if they had arrived at the place in just a blink of an eye the sleep she had, kept all the boredom she had and it seemed like a short time ago experiencing it.
Since this was the first holiday season at this wonderful place, she got out of the car not minding the stinginess of pain in her back due to the puches she got from Junior.
Wow, this place is great, The grand's place of Serenata was a hidden gem, nestled at the front of the woods that were very green. Having the best scenary for a couple and snapping photos.
As we approached the compound out of the car, the warm sunlight danced across the pasparam shaped into different items like the Christmas tree, which mesmerized me alot. Creating a dazzling display of turquoise and emerald hues.
There was also a powdery white sand beach stretched in the East as far as the eye could see lined with swaying palm trees and vibrant tropical flowers.
Serena was a haven of tranquility and beauty, the perfect destination for a relaxing and enjoying the holiday.
Back from fantasies of Ronnie and her enjoying this place together, she was called by her grandmother.
" Hey, Julie how are you? l last saw you when you were having your first birthday, you have grown so big." Regina exclaimed walking towards Julie hugging her so tight.
" Am really fine grandmother, sorry l can't remember you quite well coz it has been so long since the my first birthday. " Julie muttered while handling her the gifts she had bought for them.
" I managed to bring you something and grandpa, hope you will like it."
" Oh!, thanks honey that's so thought of you. " They conversed as if they were no other people around them.
Whitney held arms in the chest and pouted, " Grandma me too and Junior are here."
" Ok, ok Whit, let's first enter all the belongings into the house." Grandma patted Whit's shoulder.
" Seems grandma likes Julie more than me but in no time, l will make sure that she gets to see her true colors." Whit thought to herself before heading to the house.
Meanwhile, the servant steeped into the mansion, " Madam, l would like to inform you that the local office is registering for national identification cards and today is last day. "
" Okay l see, wy are you telling me this coz me and Conrad have national identification cards" Regina Thunders shot back .
The servant conceded with the explanation, " Madam l saw that you have got guests maybe they can get a chance to get this chance because it's free, if any of them doesn't have.
Regina, after processing the whole situation snapped out a comment to the servant in acceptance.
" You're really a genius, okay l will head to ask them if any doesn't have an ID.
Regina was a lively lady who used to be happy. She called out all of Keren and her family.
" l wanted to ask if all of you had national identification cards, that's wy l called u. "
" l don't have, actually l was planning to go and get. " Julie quickly spoke up before Keren took the initiative to turn this opportunity down.
She always knew her mom, was always on the rebuttal side of her opportunity.
Then grandma told her to prepare and go for registration.
She should go with Whit so as both register together, isn't it great they go together to keep each other's company, Keren put on a facade infront of the others while gazing at Julie, her face was stunning yet venomous, it sent ice daggers to Julie.
But her suggestion was turned down, " Well , Probably Julie is the only one likely to go for registration because the starting age is sixteen yet Whit is below, l think she should stay and we proceed with the arrangements. " Regina decided.
Julie rushed and thanked her with a hug before dashing out to go with the servant to the office.
**
" l think l have done my job to bring you, let me go back for my work. " Sergio proposed.
" Thank you very much, sir. l will stay and wait to register me." Julie showed her gratitude before paying him a good bye.
" Knock, knock, " a sound on the door of the office by Julie but there was no answer.
She stood outside there waiting for a response, as she was standing a teenager came and told her.
" Hi, am Stacy the Secretary of the local chief, glad to meet you, you can enter and have a seat as his coming from lunch. " she spoke to Julie before gesturing her for a seat and Julie thanked her.
Meanwhile, there was a gentle young man who entered the office.
The guy who entered, was tall like a mountain, lean but you could see that his muscular via his transparent checked T-shirt.
His steps towards the seats were conquers, each step taking away every heart beat of mine. He had a pin in the left ear and a tattoo on the nook of his neck which accentuated his beauty. He was a perfect sculpture of art made from the finest materials.
He would make the hearts of girls to fall in love at first sight me inclusive who never believed in such.
My heart was pounding and pounding not from my chest but in the back. His domineering allure made my heart to escape from the chest cavity. Indeed literally he was an angel in disguise.
Is he the local chief? No it can't be, his too young to be one but how can he enter without knocking if he is not the one. Julie thought to herself not knowing she had spent alot of time looking at this l guy more than she had to spend looking at him.
" Hi girl, the man waved at Julie while seating besides the chair next to her which snapped Julie out of the thoughts.
Probably his not the local chief why would he sit besides me, is he having other motives or he is one these rich kids with no manners at all.
Hey, Hey, the man was calling Julie.
Julie walked out of the thoughts again, she gazed at the man with embarrassment, it seems he was talking to her but she was absent minded.
O--Oh, hello sir, nice to meet you. She stuttered.
