The next day and Anabel woke up feeling enthusiastic as was smiling from ear to ear going downstairs to make breakfast, she found Helen already at it, as she hummed a song, Helen didn't usually have time to do this as she was always busy with her meetings
"Well, someone had a good night's sleep or should I say a good yesterday "
She said squinting her eyes at her, making Anabel smile even wider
"What, no am just really feeling....."
"Feeling what exactly,"
"Hahahaha... will you stop looking at me like that, am just feeling good this morning that's all,"
"Hahahaha..... If you say so, I made you
breakfast, and I think I'll be sticking around for a while"
" How long will you be hanging around," she asked
"Hahaha did you invite him over,? " she gasped
", That was fast, wow even faster than my first boyfriend"
smiling Anabel said"Boyfriend..... he's not my..... and when did you ever... ., well I volunteered to tutor him so" gazing at her with puzzlement
"Volunteered that is so unlike you what happened," she asked in disbelief
"Well I just did and he even came here yesterday"
"In that case, I will stay we will have a nice morning" she added smiling
Meanwhile at a steakhouse in the town Merivia a blonde-haired lady sat at a table slowly sipping her drink as the wind blew her hair behind her ear, she smiled
"I took your advice so should you," she said smiling Ivo sat down his face serious as he asked
"Is it done"
"Yes, you do know the cost right"
Ivo looked away from her
"You know if you plan on protecting your dear nephew then you're gonna need more than that handsomeness of yours," hearing this Ivo turned to look at her "Elaborate"
"Really hot stuff didn't you know they would come, do you think my sister's ultimate portal gate will hold for long" "What do you mean exactly I mean they're coming hot stuff and they're not coming alone" her usual playfulness had disappeared as she spoke
At Helens house Edwin stood at the front door contemplating on as to proper greetings when he knocks on the door but surprisingly it opened greeting his eyes with a pair of strange Emerald Eyes and a white dress, the strange lady, seeing her for the second time in white made him think that she had a thing for white clothes
"Mr. Grimoire, come in please," she said smiling
"How are you"
"Good"
"Anna will be down shortly, in the meantime, tea?" she asked
There was something weird about this white lady, she gave the impression that she had something up her sleeve with her devious smile, she was exacting before now she was friendly
"No am okay"
"It bugs me how you got here, how did you Mr. Grimoire," she asked her playful face turning severe
"Am not sure I understand your question" Edwin asked
"Tell me how you came across this place," she commanded walking closer
"Oh yeah, Ivo told my mom where this place is, so I asked her, and she told me
where I should go", she seemed apathetic as she listened, then after he finished
"So you just walked in here, just like that"
"Yeah, why"
"Hmm, nothing, l was just wondering,"
Hearing footsteps, they both turned their
heads only to find Anabel in her dark jeans and a white blouse, Edwin blown away by her beauty stood paralyzed until
She said
"Hi"
"Hey" he replied
"Perfect timing, I have to leave now" Helen excused herself
There was a moment of awkward silence after Helen left
"Hey," Edwin said again shyly which made Anabel shake her head smiling.
