Chereads / Love On Chaos / Chapter 2 - The preparation

Chapter 2 - The preparation

Months have passed and school went as well as it is.

I have received achievements, reach grades above 90.

so it has been a good ride not until my teacher told me that I'm going to join a Christmas pageant competition at school, every grade level has their own representative. 

And because I'm class muse, I will do so join in that bloody pageant even though I don't want too. I told Gradgie, and we have different opinion, she said I should go there head high, same with Catherine, so those two, decided they'll make me a "Goddess" lame

Eli's  Point of View

"My lord, you highness' wants to speak with you" Said France to his highness'. Count Alexander Elliot Ivan Orion Uranus.

here we go again. 

"I'll be there in five, thank you France," Eli fixed himself and stood straight, chin up like what his father taught him, he knows that when his father called he'll be going to somewhere to do a mission.

"You wish to speak with me father?"

I asked. 

"I want you to do something for me, my son,"

Lord Alfredo said

"What is it you wish me to do father?" I said

My father smirked and said, 

"I want you to look for your wife," He said and smiled like a devilish smile. 

My what?! 

"I beg your pardon?" 

Eli look at his father, shocked.

"Your wife you do know well, that you'll be in an arrange marriage right?"

Lord Alfredo said, 

Eli nodded.

"And I asked you to study the language of the Filipinos, you see the missing duchess is finally found in the Philippines, she's a sixty five year old woman, with one son, on the other hand my parents had me, a son, you're grandfather Lord Alexander, didn't had a daughter, so we agreed to marry our children instead, your mission is to find the missing duchess and find her granddaughter—your soon to be wife"

Felix, Father's butler handed a piece of parchment to me, in there lies the image of the duchess location and other important information .

"Is that all father?" Alfredo nodded.

I was about to leave until my mother called me, Eleanor. "Do you have a moment my son?"

My mother asked.

"Sure,"

I said. 

the two of us head to the castle's balcony. Mother looked up me straight in the eye as she speaks

"I need to tell you something, Elliot."

That got my internest.

"What is it you wish to tell me mother?" I asked.

"It's about the missing duchess," she said

I knew it! 

"What about it?" I asked again

"I assume you take this task easy, finding an old woman, but takes it as a problem marrying a woman you barely know. I just want you warn you, you won't find the duchess that easy, she may be old but her brain is thrice as yours."

Now I'm curious about that duchess. 

"Well let's see then, mother," I said and, 

she smiled at me "Good luck Elliot"

I smiled as well and bid goodbye "I shall take my leave now."

I bowed and left the balcony since father wants me to leave as soon as possible so I prepared my stuff so does France, my butler.

After we prepared our stuff, we left the country as soon as possible.  As I get bored in reading an article about a famous celebrity who helped poor people just to be noticed, to be praised, I mean that's totally stupid, helping people to be praised rather than to help whole heartedly, so I just, talk with France.

"Hey France, you too learned Tagalog right?" I asked my butler, no, not just a butler to be honest, I've been with France for three years now, and we are on the same age, that's a bit nice , 'coz I had the brother I always dreamt about. "Yes, my lord," he answered "You know you can call me by name right?" I stated. "I know, but I'll do that once we landed on the Philippines ,my lord."  I smiled at him "As you please, France,"

I adjusted my chair so that I can sleep properly, I need to rest and sleep.

Thea's  Point of View

As I look at those two, namely Catherine and Gradgie they are much excited and happy, ten fold they are in a total excitement, I mean I don't even know how to walk like some queen, but I'm a badass in fighting I'll give you that folks. 

"This looks good right, auntie Gradgie?" Catherine said, "That is brilliant, we'll take all of them."

What the hell!?

I only need four clothes, and they bought, ten? Fifteen or twenty? And those make up stuffs, those heels? I'm shocked, I mean I still have a week to prepare, goodness!

On our way home those two kept talking about their plan, and they wanted to teach me first how to walk like a goddess.

That's too much right?

"So Thea, tomorrow, we'll teach you how to model!!!" Gradgie said so loudly and lively as if she won in a freaking lottery. 

"What?! Tomorrow's Saturday Gradgie!" She look at me straight in the eye "Which is a perfect time for you to practice, I mean you only have a week, that is too short my Thea," Cath looked at me too "Auntie Gradgie's right you know," I sighed and spoke "Fine" As if I can win against these two.

Gradgie woke me up early in the morning, this is not my usual weekend I'll give you that. "Good morning my Thea." She greeted. "Good morning Gradgie," I yawned and purred like a cat. "Get up sweety, we're going to practice,  Cath's already downstairs, take a shower baby, you smell," I glared at her,they really have it hard.

The three of us went to the garden, and I, am, wearing a six inch high heels, my feet, oh lord, and what the fuck, is that a plate Gradgie's holding? "Ahmm, we don't need the plate right, Gradgie?" Gradgie chuckled "Silly, use that as your balance,"

Is that even true?

It took me four plates before perfecting the walking,shit, my legs hurt. "Let's call it a day auntie G." Cath said.

Thank you Lord.

"yeah, lets rest."

let ME rest

"Thea, I'll go now, bye!"

I smile at Cath "Bye Cathy, Take care" I stood up, my feet still sore. "Gradgie, let's have a foot spa please, my feet hurts. So much, please." She sighed and said "Anything for my Thea of course, pero sa Monday na, bukas pipili tayo nang isususot mo tapos, hairstyle and etc of course, is that ok baby?" I sigh and spoke. "add pizza, add my faves on that foot spa." I said "Noted" she replied short and clear. 

Eli's P.O.V.

Finally, we've arrived at the Philippines, tired, sleepy— France and I, both took a shower before heading to bed, well tomorrow, I'll go to, Vancouver's village, that's where I'm gonna stay, father said, and then on the 6th of December, I'll go to school, since I'm a senior high school for my age, but already far way than college by knowledge, I'll give you that, but for tonight, let me rest. I'll be engaged in a few months time.

Morning came, and as planned we are now on Vancouver's village, where the missing duchess lives. We set our things, buy everything necessary. After that France and I head to the school I'll be going, I talk with the dean regarding my special transfer, it went well, so I'll go to school on the 6th of December.

Thea's P.O.V.

Like what Gradgie said, we will pick what am I going to wear, so here we are again. Cath and Gradgie, kept me asking to wear and wear and wear, it took us 3 hours, before we have come up with something, but I have to admit, it is worth the wait, hopefully this 4 dresses will make me win. "That's it for today, it's still early, so you wanna have spa Thea?" Gradgie asked me. "Yeah, let's go, and pizza,soda, fries, chicken wings." I added "Why don't join us Cath?" Gradgie looked at Cath. Cath instantly answered "Hell yes, everything's better if its free!"
