Travis
"Yes move this here" "not here there"
People moved around arranging everywhere as more guests kept coming in
"Travis did you contact Kendra again?"mum asked anxiously
"Yes I did,she will be here soon"I said checking the time
We greeted different people from different parts of NewYork
"It's really nice to have you here Sally"I greeted my long time friend
Sally and I use to be very close in the past except for the fact the Ruby and her ain't friends at all
Ruby is really selective with people but still friendly
"It's okay, that's to tell you I've not forgotten about you"she said smiling sweetly "Take a look at you now, you're looking so different now, what's with the height"she said trying to reach my head
I grabbed her hand and placed them on my cheeks
"You know if you want to get tall,try to walk with talk people"
"Ouch you're mean now, Ruby's behaviour is getting into you"she said pouting
I heard her hand "Let's go,am sure mom wants to see you"
"I can't wait to surprise Rosie"she said smiling happily
**************
"Surprise!!!"Sally said behind Rosie
is
Rosie turned back and jumped screaming "Sally!!"she hugged her "When did you come back?"
"Yesterday,I really wanted to surprise you, congratulations this is really big"
"Thank you very much Sally, after all these, you have to gist me about Florida"
"Rosie they're here"Mum said rushing to us
"Who?"
"The Rodriguez"
We ran to the main floor and saw the Rodriguez
The ER's walked in together filling the room, everyone turned to look at them, the Media keeps clicking and clicking
*************
"Hello Mr Rodriguez,am Travis Cruz"I stretched out my hand
"Well you know me well,am Eve Rodriguez"his daughter accepted the shake willingly
Okay I didn't expect that
"Ohh nice to meet you Miss Rodriguez"
"Yeah, nice to finally meet you"she said sweetly "This is my nonchalant brother Elliott"she said pointing to her brother
"Hi"he only waved
We heard people whispering and looking back
"What's going on?"Mum asked
A security man walked to us and said "Ma'am she's arrived"
"Who?"
"Ohh my God I can't believe Miss Mondragon is here"some group of women said beside us
Mondragon? Kendra?
I walked to the entrance and saw two black Maybach with just a capital letter M on the plate number
The doors of the car at the back opened and some guys wearing black suits came out, walked to the other car at the front
One of the men opened the door at the back seat and they all bowed
A red heel revealed itself,an enchanting beauty walked out under the heavy sun
Kendra wore a red off shoulder Long gown with a split from her thigh
"Oh my God Miss Mondragon,I was so worried that you wouldn't come"Rosie said holding her hands
"Why would you say that? This is for you remember,I just had to do something first"
"It's good you're finally here"I said getting her attention
She looked at me smiling and immediately looked away
"Okay let's start now"
*******
"Different people, those I don't know, those I know,those I want to know, those I don't really want to know, tried to discourage me about Baby Brownies,but you know me,I hate listening to people who try to talk to me"Rosie tried to give a small speech
She stood at the middle of the main floor holding a glass of wine
"I really thank everyone for the support,my sponsors,a special thanks to The Rodriguez"
*******************
Kendra
What does she mean? What did she just say? The Rodriguez?
Everyone clapped and I couldn't help but look around,I saw The Four Rodriguez together at the corner
How could this be?
"And also our Beauty Goddess,Miss Kendra Mondragon,at first when she agreed to model for the product,I was really shocked and also agreeing to come for the grand opening was really shocking"
"Thank you very much Miss Mondragon,I really appreciate it"she said raising her glass to her
"You know life is too short to be stressing yourself about school, you just have to do what you want to do,go with your heart, what if you die tomorrow,what a waste on earth but I'll still go to school anyways"she said sighing
We all laughed
"I want to thank God for giving me the best family,the best annoying brothers,who are always there for me, and my parents who decided that they no longer have want another boy but a girl,I really love you all"
"We love you too baby"Mrs Cruz screamed smiling
"So at this point Baby Brownies is officially opened"she said raising her glass and drinking the wine
******
"Miss Kendra can you please give a short speech please"Rosie said smiling
"Good evening everyone,am sure you all know me already"
"Miss Rosie Cruz is really a rare gem, it's really rare to see a determined young girl like her,so who am I not to accept her offer"
I paused looking around
"So I'll donate Eight hundred thousand dollars to Baby Brownies"
I said opening looking at one of my bodyguards
He step forward holding a small cheque
"Miss Rosie can you step forward please?"
She looked confused looking around. "Miss Kendra"she replied smiling
"This is Eight hundred thousand dollars for Baby Brownies, this is on behalf of The Mondragon"I said handing the cheque to her
"Thank you very much Miss Mondragon"she said accepting it as everyone clapped
****************
"You really surprised everyone there"Travis said behind me
"Ohh it's nothing"I said drinking my wine
"Am really sorry"
"About what?"I asked confused
"I didn't tell you about The Rodriguez"
"Ohh it's nothing, it's normal for rivals to meet up in public places like this"
"Hello long time no see"little Miss Rodriguez catworked to where we were
I looked at Travis giving him a'we'll talk later look'
"Kendra Mondragon"Eve said looking at me with disgust
"Sorry you are?"I asked raising my eyebrows
