It was late afternoon when Sadie and Frank finished their picnic in the park.
Sadie will you move in with me? I have a lovely double storey mansion on the east side. You will have everything that you can think of. No Frank, I am happy with my apartment, my work and my independence. And we don't know each other that we'll, and Uhm.....
Sadie I believe you are making excuses. Don't you fancy me?
Frank you didn't even meet my family yet, what if they don't like you? Then I will be stuck in the middle of everlasting battles between you.
Ok Mrs Sadie this weekend we go to your parents and I will make sure they like me hell I'll make sure they adore me. How's that?
Frank I really really hope they like you. On one condition Sadie; if they seem to like me and with their blessing you will not only move in with me as my girlfriend, will you marry me?
Frank got down on his knees and serenaded a song to Sadie:
My love there's only one for me
The only one I need
I give you my heart on fire
You are the one I desire
Marry me today, tomorrow
I will never bring you sorrow
Frank, Frank! Please stop, everyone is watching us. No my love not until you say yes. Yes Frank yes I will marry you with my parents blessings. Frank picked Sadie up and turned and turned until they fell to the soft green grass.
On Saturday they arrived at Sadie's parents. Good day sir Edward, good day Mrs Elena. My name is Frank.
Sadie's father and mother greeted Frank and invited him in.
The weekend went great and Sadie's father even joked about having a dozen of grand children.
Sadie could not believe that Frank actually won their respect and trust so fast, her parents are very conservative. But her mother told her in the kitchen, Sadie this is a keeper.
Sunday afternoon Frank dropped Sadie at her apartment after the long drive from her parents. Sadie you need to start packing tomorrow remember we had an agreement? Frank tell me one thing, why do you wanne marry me? Do you love me? Why me?
Sadie I loved you since the first day I saw you at the diner. You are one loving, soft, stunning woman with a heart of gold but yet you have a aura around you of strength and courage. Sadie wiped a tear if joy as she hugged Frank. Good night my sweet love I will arrange to have your belongings moved to the mansion on Friday. Oh and babe I think you should resign at the diner. But Frank why? I love my work at the diner. Sweetheart, you will never need to work again in your life. And as the CEO of the biggest company in L.A I can't let people see my wife working in a diner that will ruin my reputation.
Sadie went to resign at the diner on Monday. Everyone cried but they understood and was very happy for her. On Friday the moving company picked up all her belongings and took it to the mansion.
Sadie was utterly surprised when she saw the mansion for the first time. It was a double storey house with very unique architecture. The garden was spectacular with water features, fruit trees oranges, lemons,plums, figs, banana's and mangoes. Flowers were blooming everywhere, roses in colours she have never seen. Entering the house a huge wooden door opened and she was standing inside the reception hall. Wow, Sadie was standing still taking in her surroundings when Frank came down the stairs.
Welcome to your home my darling, I hope you find everything to your liking. But please if you want to change anything tell Martha the house keeper and she will make sure to get it done. No Frank why on earth would I change anything this is so beautiful.
Frank took Sadie's hand and led her to the main bedroom. The room was decorated with soft pink curtains, white silky linen on the bed, a vase with lavender flowers on a side table, there was a walk in cupboard and a fully equipped bathroom. Sadie stood there in this marvelous room not knowing what to say. Sadie are you happy my love? Yes Frank I am. Frank took her in his strong arms layed her on the bed. He started unbuttoning her blouse while landing soft kisses in her neck he moved his hand slowly over her breasts. Sadie growned in pleasure as he moved inside her.
That night Sadie laid awake gathering her thoughts. I can't believe I really am here, a week ago I was working in a diner, eating alone every night, sleeping alone in my apartment. Now I'm engaged to a CEO, I live in a mansion and I don't have work.
Sadie fell asleep just before sun up. Frank left for the office but told Martha to take good care of Sadie until he came home.
Martha took Sadie coffee and breakfast in bed at around 10:00. Thanks Martha I can't believe I slept so late. Guess I was over tired. Martha nodded and left the room in silence.
Mrs Sadie, Mr Frank called came a voice from the other side of the door. Please come in Sadie said. Mrs Sadie, Frank said I must tell you that he will be working late tonight. There is a crisis at work. He said I must cook Mrs dinner and Mrs must not wait up for him.
Thanks Martha I don't mind eating a sandwich for dinner, you don't have to cook only for me. Oh no mam! Martha looked scared, Mr Frank will fire me if I serve Mrs bread for dinner. Ok then Martha if you insist I will be at the dinner table at 18:00 but only if you join me.
Martha knew there and then Sadie won't take no for an answer, she doesn't know Mr Frank that we'll yet, but hopefully she will find out before it's to late
