Chapter 13 - Urgly duckling

The food spread on the table were all vegan. Banana Pancakes made with a blend of oat flour and whole wheat pastry flour, healthy pancakes bursting with banana flavour. Maple syrup was spread on the layers, vegan french toast, vegan carrot waffles, avocado toast and chia pudding.

Though they were all healthy but delicious. It was new for meat lovers like the Greens,since every Friday night they would order steak for steak night.

At first taste, Passion exclaimed " Magnifique!, where did you learn to cook like that. "

Right After getting this question. Michael took a sip from his fruit juice, wiping the corners of his mouth. He stood up ready to excuse himself. '' I will have to leave now. I remembered something urgent. '' he stuttered in a husky voice.

Indeed, this was new to him, the habit of making up excuses, in the past, he would have just walked out.

Until when did he start showing people affection, without waiting for their response he picked up his jacket and left in a hurry.

Dawn was not able to catch up with the steps of his long legs. She was only confronted by a tail of gas from his limited edition Maybach.

Thereafter, she let out a loud sigh. " I wanted to thank him for the heavy breakfast he bestowed on us ''she muttered sadly taking a right turn into the house.

In truth, due to their endless busy schedule they mostly order food.As for the children they ate from the canteen at school. It was the first time in ages that they were lucky enough to have such a breakfast when it was not steak night. At least now Marvin and Wendy would have something inside their lunch boxes.

In conclusion, Dawn was very happy. So, Dawn decided she would bake a vegan cake for him as soon as she returned from work

" I never thought eating healthy would taste so good. He should be a chef in one of those VIP-only five stars restaurants and hôtels. ''

" Who would have thought, a famous A-lister cooking for us. Dawn, you are so lucky." Passion squealed in the car.

In excitement, she hugged Dawn and they car veered into the trash can.

They would have been seriously injured if not for their strapped seatbelts.

" Can't you see I am driving.? '' Dawn scolded hitting the steering in anger.

At that moment, Passion was expecting a tight Dawn slap instead her sister sighed and continued driving.

Indeed she was a little bit shock at Dawn's calmness.

Anyway, she uttered '' Sorry, Amor ''

However, Dawn kept on thinking about why he left the table in that way. She was conscious it was not anger but something else.

' What is he hiding? '

' Or does he have a bad memory attached to that question '.

Her mind drifted to the beautiful photo of them cuddling and her cheeks turned rosy red.

Upon seeing her sister's reaction, Passion teased. " Are you thinking of a mister movie star?. ''

" Yesterday, because of the commotion I did not get enough pictures of him… '' she blurted before realizing what she said and clasping her hand on her mouth.

Nevertheless, it was too late, Dawn already heard everything, she licked her lower lip and asked " What commotion… yesterday? ''

Passion was in a panic and she held Dawn's arm. " This is …my stop, Dawn. ''

They arrived at Passion's University thankfully before Dawn could question her.

Passion sighs and rushes out instantly.

When Dawn heard Passion calling her by her name. Then and there she realized Passion was hiding something, but at the moment she had to be at work. She watched Passion stroll to a gang of students before she drove off.

Whatever happened last night was something they wanted to keep from Dawn.

As soon as Passion waved at friends. In the gang, there are six, three girls with their hot boyfriends by their sides. The most popular group in their department and the whole campus.

At the left, stood a tall flat chested blonde with grey eyes, she is the head of the group. She has an oval face, is the prettiest. Presently she is dating, the most good-looking and is a math genius. Who, Passion dotted on.

He had an amazing jawline with a blend of English and Spanish accents. This made him more popular and attractive.

In the middle was 'Avriel ', cousin of Elea. Avriel is introverted and the nicest in the group.

She was an average height and had dyed her shoulde-length hair pink with the roots dark red with blue eyes. The guy next to her, Antoine, has auburn red curly hair in faux hawk style. Antoine is also quite attractive, he is known for his spaciness and deep personality.

Finally at the end was the bitch of the group. Noémie has an asymmetry style bob brunette with green eyes. She is tall, and talkative also known as the queen of TikTok.

Maël the guy next to her. He had a black spike hairstyle with black shining eyes.

Noémie attacked " Can you tell your geeky sister to stop driving that ugly duckling of a vehicle everywhere. ''

" It's embarrassing to be friends with you when you are associated with someone driving a CITROËN 2CV, the cheapest car ever. '' Elea chimed folding her arms around her chest.

Fifteen minutes later, Dawn parked the car.
