Diana hugs me tightly, "I heard that you two were in Paris. Was it for your honeymoon?" Her eyes wander to Aidan who has let out a chuckle as he rubs onto my back, leaving me to grin; not knowing what to say but only smile at her statement. "Well...e on in, I need to continue making my pie." She adds.
"I can help," I assure.
She looks back at me before smiling at Aidan, "Come on, then."
I nce back at Aidan for a short couple of seconds as I make my way towards the kitchen, being reminded of when Aidan and I were younger and how we used to sneak in the kitchen for somete night snacks. It was an unforgettable memory and it was worth thinking. My eyes wander around the kitchen beforending on Diana again, who seems to have been staring at me ever since I got here. "How are things with Aidan? Has he been treating you well?" She asks, leaving me speechless at her sudden questions. "Things are going great and he has never treated me wrong," I reply and she smiles, nodding her head; somehow satisfied at my answer.
"I''m d... it''s been, what? Three months?"
"Almost four," I answer.
To my surprise, I find Aidan and in walking out behind the house, making me eye them from the window in the kitchen-seeing themughing as they talk about a few things. My lips curve up into a smile at the sight of them, remembering back how Aidan used toin about in getting much more amount of attention yet they are still never apart.
"Where''s Mia?" I ask, realising that I didn''t see her earlier. Harley was also nowhere to be found and I''m only guessing that she''s still at the office; well, Harley and I are workaholics, there''s nothing to change.
Diana closes the fridge, "Mia and Tony will be here soon. She seemed like she wanted to tell me about something but she also told me to wait... do you have any idea what it might be?" She asks, making me clear my throat before shaking my head; putting on the perfect act.
"Uh... no clue,"
The next hour was spent helping Diana with therge amount of food and her homemade pie, a family recipe that I''ve been tasting for years ever since I became involved in Aidan''s life. She has always been a great cook, just like Aidan and her cookings have always somehow been one of my favourites... after my mum''s cookings, of course.
"Kenna!" Mia exims as she pulls me in for a hug, causing me to chuckle.
"d you could make it, sweetheart." Diana says as they both pull each other in for a hug, leaving me to eye them. "Where''s Tony?" She asks.
"I would never miss it for the world, mother. Tony''s outside with in and Aidan... who can''t seem to stop talking about work." Mia replies before turning towards me, "Don''t you feel bored with my brother? I''m sure he has nothing to talk about but only about work," "Actually... he doesn''t talk about work with me," I reply and Diana smiles, slowly followed by Mia who seems to be giving me a wink.
Diana walks out of the kitchen as she starts to call out for in, leaving Mia and I by ourselves. She walks closer towards me before clearing her throat, "I''m thinking on telling themter. I mean, I can''t hide it forever, right? Sooner orter, everything will start to fall into ce and it''s better if I be the one to tell rather than them finding out from someone else," She says.
"That''s great. I''m sure they''ll support you through it," I reply.
"Well... mother and Harley might but I''m not very sure about father and in. For now, I only have you and Aidan''s support-which is enough for me but I''m terrified of in. What if he kills me?" She whispers,ughing afterwards. "Aidan didn''t flip much because you were there but Harley''s not here... there''s a high chance I might die, today."
"Don''t sweat much, Mia. Just remember that I''ll always be here to help you," My hand grabs onto hers, gripping tightly as she grips back; smiling at me.
"Maybe, being pregnant is really messing up with my hormones. I truly understand how Harley felt when she was pregnant with Ava because I''m currently pregnant and I''m feeling the same way!" Mia says as I look behind her to see Diana and in standing with wide eyes, causing Mia to turn around; muttering a curse under her breath.
The four of us end up staring at each other while I hold in my breath, somehow afraid of this thing going sour. By the look on in''s face, I can see him clenching his jaw and his fists before closing his eyes-letting out a deep breath but as for Diana, she seems to be in shock, as she covers her mouth with her hand.
"Oh, shit." Mia sighs.
"Mia, what the fuck?!" in exims
ver
in anger before exiting the kitchen, heading towards the living room and out the backyard, making Mia''s eyes widen as she starts to chase after him. Quickly run after them, realising that in is currently heading towards Tony who''s having a conversation with Aidan near the their house water fountain.
Mia tries to grab onto in''s arm but apparently, she was toote as in grabs onto Tony by the cor and away from Aidan; immediately started to punch onto his face, causing him to drop onto the ground. "in, stop!" Mia shouts.
Tony''s face is being beaten pretty badly by in as blood starts to seep down his shirt, making me stand with my heart racing; gazing up at Aidan who starts to break out of his trance by running towards them, trying to pull in away from Tony. As for Mia, she won''t stop trying to push in away but he''s stronger than her. "You''re a fucking asshole. How dare you!" in shouts, punching harder.
To my surprise, Harley starts to appear with wide eyes as she runs towards in, "Baby, what are you doing? Stop it!" She exims, pushing out of her heels, making her way towards us in a hurry-making me take a couple of steps back,pletely in shock.
"Cut it off!" Aidan says as he manages to pull in away, leaving us to stare down at Tony who is currently coughing out blood, Mia quickly tending him. Aidan continues to pull in away from Tony, his hand gripping tightly onto his arm, "Cut it off, in. You''re making a fucking scene,"
"You knew? You knew all along and you were fine with this?!" in shouts at Aidan who has started to clench his jaw in anger.
"She''s our sister, Aidan. She''s our
one and only sister. How can you be fine with her being pregnant? She''s in university. For god''s sake, Mia.
what the fuck were you thinking? et
Were you out of your goddamn mind? I don''t want to see you with him anymore. He stays out of your fucking life!" in lets out his anger by pointing at Tony who is currently looking away from in and only assuring Mia that he''s fine.
Aidan pulls him harder by the arm, "I said cut it off!"
in and Aidan are both staring at each other, somewhat ring. "She''s not a child, in. We can''t just interfere with her life because we think that it''s bad for her; she can do what the fuck she wants and we just have to stay out of it! You''re right, she''s our sister and you''re
trying to ruin your one and only sister''s life." He leans to say those words which causes in to pull his
arm away from Aidan''s grasps.
"You''re a disgrace," in turns to Mia before storming off, avoiding even his wife''sfort as she starts to follow him.Belongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org.
My eyes wander to Aidan who has let out a deep sigh, both of his hands on his waist before using one to pinch the bridge of his nose. Anger is clearly shown to be radiating from him as I pass him to immediately make my way towards Tony, "Let me help you. We have first aid kit inside," I assure him before trying to help him stand with Mia.
Just as we make our ways inside the house, in is already holding Ava as he starts to put her in the child safety seat in the car with Harley sighing deeply at his behaviour. Then, without even sparing a single nce, in drives them away and straight down the road, leaving me to turn, seeing Diana and Marc disappointedly gaze at Mia.
"I''ll try to talk to them," Aidan follows his parents'' towards their house''s library.
Mia, Tony and I are in the kitchen, with me trying to tend his cuts by wiping away the blooding out from his nose and even on the side of his lips. I slowly dab a clean cloth after wiping away the blood to make sure that he won''t get any infection as he closes his eyes, bearing with the stinging pain.
"I''m sorry," Mia grabs onto Tony''s hand before nting a kiss at the back of it.
Tony turns to smile at Mia, "Don''t worry about it, babe. We''ll get through this, okay?" He assures her by winking, making her run her fingers through his hair, pushing them away from his face as I dab an antiseptic on his cuts.
"Nothing''s broken. You''re good," I say, giving him an ice pack for the swelling and a forming bruise on his cheekbone.
Tony clears his throat, "Thank you, Kenna." He says as both of his eyes look down at me, seeing me smile back at him; assuring him that it was nothing and it was a pleasure to help him out. "You could''ve warned me though," He says at Mia with a light chuckle.
Mia smiles sadly, "Aidan took it quite well and I thought that maybe in would''ve been the same but I was wrong. You''re hurt because of me and I''m sorry," She replies as she cups onto his face, slowly, avoiding anywhere near his swelling or cuts. Then, she looks at me. "Thanks, Kenna. I guess we do owe you," She adds.
"Just get some rest," I smile as they start to walk out of the house, straight towards his car.
Within seconds, Aidan appears in the kitchen with a deep sigh, his hair sticking out all over the ce as he sits on the stool near the kitchen ind, running his fingers through his hair, somehow trying to relief his stress. Thanksgiving ended up being Anger-giving.
