"Why?Isabelle I liked you when..."
"I heard,thank you and I appreciate but I believe that's a lie,I know you Bronsilaw,one woman doesn't satisfy you"
"That was then"
"Then,I came to you guys running away from Xander at least give the guy a chance in my life before they take it" Isabelle roll her eyes heavenward. "And I keep telling you I like you as a brother"
"That's bullshit"
"I know,but that's how I like you"Isabelle mutter and pick a chicken lap. "Anyone up for exchange?"
"Me." Greta and Maja both scream and take it from her,Bronsilaw heart tore into pieces just like always,she'd always tell him he would never get the chance but something in him tells him not to give up and he won't,he'll pursue her till the end.

"Triplicate" Aukey step into a smoke filled room. "Triplicate"He called again and access the room with a lifted brow.
"Where are you?I'm not interested in playing hide and seek" Aukey stated but nothing happened,the room remained grey and smoky,He walk to the terrace and look down. "Father"
"Jump" Aukey heard in his head. "Jump I say"he grab the railing hard in resistance but the voices in his head was compelling. "Jump" His hand loose from the railing and Aukey leap only to be suspended in the air and then he heard the chuckles from behind him.
"I learnt that recently and it seems to be able to compell you"Triplicate gait into the room,Aukey descend to the ground and whiff. "I was waiting for you to call me father" Triplicate pull a cigarette from the packet and offer the chief one.
"Not in the mood" The masked chief said and walk to one of the chairs in the room. "What are you planning to do?"
"What are you planning chief?I'm the scared one"Triplicate shot back in sarcasm.
"I'm serious,What are you planning this time?I swear to God I'm gonna do everything to get you back in the jail"
"Why the anger?you can't get me locked up son,there's no way I'd allow that to happen again but you can dream on" Triplicate put the cigarette in his mouth and turn on the lighter.
"You're breaking the pact,don't forget you made a pact with me too"
"So you're scared,listen Isabelle is someone I need,I want that girl,Emeryk wants her,you want her,she has something none of us has and that's clear but to get to her I've to scare the shit out of her" Triplicate utter lightly.
"You'll kill someone close,I know you,why won't you just die? "
"Your dad?" Triplicate feign disappointment,Aukey rub his forehead. "Nothing for raising you?"
"If you were someone different maybe I'd think about it,Don't hurt her...I'll find the CD,Just let the girl go"
"You don't even know her,you're getting emotional,this isn't how I trained you to be"
"Please,You promised and I know you don't break it,let Jamie go" Aukey said and take a deep breath. "Consider this a reward from you to me,a reward that I called you father"Triplicate burst into laughter and bob his head.
"Sure,no jamie,you're as bad as me you know"Triplicate express "But you can't stop me from breaking Isabelle,I'll ruin their lives till I'm sure only terror lives in their heart"
"Jamie is out of this"Aukey assert to make sure he get the point.
"I promise" Triplicate mouthed and Aukey believed him.

"A ship that has a thousand guest capacity would be the right one" Isabelle heard Jamie's voice from afar and longing fills her heart,Xander notice her foul mood and tilt his head.
"Are you alright?"
"I am,I'm just happy it's happening"
"Yeah,me too,I can't wait for the two to tie the knot" Xander open the door for her and flick her nose taking her by surprise. "You're a good person"
"Thanks"Isabelle mumble,laugh at his new way of looking weird each time then step in.
"By the evening both the Codds and the Macks should be on the ship and remember this ship is to cross from Poland to Russia and then Germany,you'll be informed on the place to take a stop later on,you don't have to worry the guest because there are exclusive venue and accommodation for them all" Jamie instruct a group of men and women in black and white.
"Hey,you guys are here" Sasha throw herself on Isabelle and squeeze her. "Thank you"
"You know I wouldn't miss this for the world" Isabelle kiss her cheeks. "Thank you for honouring me though"
"It's my right as a friend,hey bro" Sasha pull Xander cheek,the man yank her hand away and glare but Sasha only chuckle. "I miss you guys"
"Where's your mother in law?"Xander asked.
"Ask your friend" Sasha snap and drag Isabelle away,Xander roll his eyes and went away to search for Micah.
"Why did you say it like that? Are you two fighting?" Isabelle fold her legs as she sip her coffee and sit beside the window her eyes on everyone moving downstairs.
"What do you expect?I can't believe Micah had yell at me all because I want my own wedding vow" Sasha yell and pant. "He doesn't love me"
"Well that's bad but you know the day after tomorrow is the wedding, you can't call it off"
"Let's elope"
Isabelle roll her eyes and put the cup on the table beside her. "I'm not available,Micah will never be okay again."
"Like Xander?"Isabelle glare and look away. "I'm sorry"
"I get why he won't read the Vows"
"That's rude,I apologized" Sasha raise her voice.
"Okay,because everything works out for you doesn't mean it does for everyone so stop mocking people with that" Isabelle shout and head for the door.
"Isabelle" Sasha gasp,Isabelle hiss and frown coming face to face with Jamie by the door. "Hey"
"Hi" Jamie set her gaze down and fidget,Isabelle roll her eyes and pull her into a hug,Jamie burst into tears and hug her tighter. "I thought you wouldn't come"
"I'm here,I'll always be"
"I miss you so much" Jamie sob,Isabelle clean her tears and kiss her cheeks.
" I miss you and I love you,okay?"
"I know"Jamie hug her sister again.
Xander locate Micah sitting behind the pool,his head resting on the lion effigy behind him,his eyes dart to and fro but his heart stayed in one place,lost in it wilderness.
"Hey" Xander said and took a seat beside him. "Hey bro"He tap Micah,the guy grumble and curse before facing him. "What the in the world is wrong with you?"
"Nothing"
"Nothing? As in nothing? Is Sasha mad at you? Are you mad at Sasha or..."
"Drop it Xander,I don't want to talk about your sister" Micah ruffle his hair and let out a curse again.
"It's serious."Xander noted.
"I don't know what to say,I don't fucking know what to say but you know your sister getting angry at every little thing"The man finally give in to Xander pressure.
"So what?"
"She threatened to call of the wedding."Micah utter,Xander burst into laughter. "That's rude"
"Don't tell me you believe the woman,who calls of their wedding days before their wedding?"
"Actresses and actors,there's the runaway bride movie,I watch movies Xander and I see a lot of things and guess what? When we went to the registry a guy handed me a handbook,WORST CASE SCENARIO,DAYS BEFORE WEDDING OR WEDDING ITSELF"Micah sigh.
"That's ridiculous,Sasha doesn't have the gut to do that"
"Alone,Isabelle is with her"
Xander mouth twitched. "What are you trying to say?" Micah shrug and sit up.
"Isabelle had done this before"
Xander shook his head in disdain,he stood up and dust his pants. "Now I get your problem"
"I'm sorry"
"It's okay,Goodluck" Xander stride away,Micah rub his temple and tears slid from his eyes.
