Chapter 5 - It's not Christmas -part1

Diana fulfilled the children's wish by taking them out for the weekend.

They went to mermaid Lake, a famous and beautiful park, with natural trees, lakes and friendly animals and awe-inspiring caves.

They had fun and set up the camp base.

Diana split them up.

Damien and some kids are on finding locations to visit tomorrow.

Darlene and other kids are on snacks and dinner.

Diana and some the older kids are on setting up the base.

Diana made a lot of foods and desserts with what Danien and his team brought.

Darlene was not yet back. She was late.

"Mum!" Darlene was breathless.

"Late again", Damien shook his head helplessly, his adorable sister never keeps track of time...

That would later be her greatest regret in life.. but that's for another time.

"No extra pork for you, snacks are low and you have to make do with the leftovers. " that was Diana's way of punishing her and her group.

"Oh no!", the children lamented.

They secretly blamed Darlene.

....

After the exhausting trip, everyone came home refreshed yet tired.

As they made their way inside, they helped each other unload.

"I'm so tired." Darlene whined.

"Oh you guys are home. "

There was a handsome stranger in their living room.
