Acting almost gone wrong

1011 Words
She was able to locate the dining room downstairs. The way the room was decorated made her gasped. The chandelier, the dining table, the chairs, the flowers, the wallpaper installed on the wall, everything screamed expensive. They were seven of them in the room. She had seen the others a while ago, except the two new faces. 'Maybe they are Natasha's parents, the guy had said that they were waiting for me.. No, I mean Natasha'. She walked to meet them, and started saying what she had practiced earlier. "HI everyone, I am sorry for everything. I only ran away because he's been acting unfair to me, I was sad and depressed.. Um, the um... Emerald I am sorry for leaving you" She faked a pleading tone. All of them stopped eating, and were now staring at her. "That's odd, you don't call me Emerald, but my other name...Well, apology accepted" Emerald stood up from her chair, she ran to hug Phoebe/Natasha. Phoebe lifted her up, "That's my baby girl" She then dropped her down. "Come and eat" Emerald dragged her to the dining table. Phoebe pulled out a chair and sat on it. It was the chair next to Emerald. She dipped the fork into the spaghetti and took it to her mouth. "I am not surprised, I knew you would come around" Oliver's mother, said. "Natasha, have they be spoiling you with gifts, that you've even forgot to greet your parents" The man said. "I guess so" The woman replied, even before Phoebe could. She didn't know what to say to them. 'What if...' She suddenly thought of something. She started coughing. "Are you okay" All of them chorused, except two persons. Oliver and Lily. "Wa...water" She continued coughing. Emerald quickly gave her a glass of water, which she gulped down immediately. "Ah!...I am fine now" She said. "Thank goodness" Natasha's mum, said. "So, now that you are back, it's time to take your place back as a legal wife...Don't you think Emerald needs a sibling?" Oliver's mum said, making Phoebe to choke on her food. This time around, she wasn't pretending, what the woman said really made her to choke. "We are not ready for that now. We have something we are both planning" Phoebe managed to reply. Gaining a stare from Oliver. "So you too are getting along? I mean my brother would never plan something with you" Lily rolled her eyes. "Why is it bordering you? If you want to be a wife, then get married" Phoebe retorted, not minding the fact that lily looked too young to get married. Lily was flabbergasted, Natasha had never stood up to her. She wanted to give Natasha the insult of her life, but then she remembered the presence of Natasha's parents. "Emerald, since your mother is back, how about you go spend some time with her... Like a vacation" Grandfather suggested. "That's a nice idea. Emerald, where do you want to visit?" Oliver spoke for the first time, ever since Phoebe walked in the dining room. "Hmm, where I want to go" Emerald started thinking of different places to visit for a vacation. "There's this place I have been hearing, it's like the place is nice". "What's the place?" Oliver asked. "Maldives!" She screamed in excitement. Phoebe's eyes widened in shock, she looked at the little girl again. 'Maldives? How can a little girl like this have such high taste'. Oliver chuckled at what Emerald said. "If you want to visit Maldives, you...." He was disrupted by the ringing of his phone. "Excuse me" He stood up and walked away from them. He answered the call and placed the phone on his ear. "Sir, your attention is needed here at the hospital. There's an emergency, you have to come see this" The caller said in a rush. Oliver hung up. He walked to his room in a haste, to get the car keys and some important stuffs. He didn't want any bodyguards to go with him, after all he was just going to deal with some important works at the hospital. He got to a place where he had to stop for people to cross, he stopped and was impatiently waiting for the light to show. * Louis was crossing by a road, when he saw a familiar face in a car. He immediately recognized his face. How could he forget the face of the person that took his sweetheart away. He stood in front of the car and started waving. The person inside the car was giving him signal to move away, but he didn't. Oliver opened the door and stepped out of the car. "Do you want to die!" He yelled at the person. "Where's Phoebe" The man said. "Phoebe? Who's Phoebe?" Confused Oliver, asked. "My almost wife... Where did you take her to" Immediately he said those words, Oliver recognized him. "Get out of the way, I have an emergency to attend to" Oliver cared so much for his patients, he didn't want anyone to die, and that was why he was in a haste to go the hospital. "Where is she!" Louis yelled. "Get out of the way!!" Oliver yelled so hard, that Louis almost got scared... Almost. 'You son of a b***h. I am gonna make sure you pay dearly, for delaying me'. "You what to see Fiona, right" He asked Louis. "Her name is Phoebe, not Fiona" Louis corrected him. "Oh, Whatever. Come with me" He said. "I don't trust you". "That's your problem, I don't have time for explanation" He walked to his car and ignited the engine. Louis stood there, not knowing whether to believe him or not. He opened the car and stepped it. "If this is one of your tricks, then prepare to face my wrath" Louis threatened. If only he knew. 'You are going to face your doom, soon. Just prepare... You will be punished by me, for trying to marry my daughter's mother' He thought and smirked. Oliver scoffed, he drove as fast as he could.
