Chapter 695 - Six Hundred And Ninety-Five: Happiness
The third point of view:
Anabelle was preparing to go on a date with Julie today and as she was about to pull her hair in a ponytail got sight of the ring on her finger and she began to giggle sheepishly.
At the sound of that laughter, her sister Allison who was working on her homework in her room quickly looked up, startled. The young girl stared at her sister who in turn was staring at the ring in her finger in fascination.
"What's so funny about the ring?" She wondered with her brows drawn together in deep contemplation. Maybe she would ask her mother to buy her a ring like her sister's and find out as well - she also wanted to be happy.
However, a second giggle made the girl's furrow this time. She shook her head, it doesn't seem to be the ring this time, or did the ring have a special effect.
Oh no, her sister was losing her mind.
"Sister Anabelle," the girl was concerned over her sister's well-being.
But Anabelle didn't answer.
So she stood up and went over to her side, shaking her by the shoulder, and only then did Anabelle awake from her reverie.
"Hey Allison," Anabelle was startled, "What's wrong?"
But to her surprise, Allison's fade distorted and to her horror, began to cry.
"Hey, what is it?" Anabelle was baffled, wondering what she had done wrong?
"Don't leave me, sister," the girl hugged her tight, resting her head on her shoulder, "I don't want you to go crazy,"
Anabelle : (°°)
what was she talking about?
"I thought something had happened when you began to laugh to yourself!" The young girl cried and Anabelle finally understood what was going on. Her sister, Allison thought she went crazy? It seems she might have overdone her happiness.
"I'm sorry, my lovely pumpkin," Anabelle consoled, patting her on the back, "I was just excessively happy, nothing else,"
"Really?" Allison pulled away, scrutinizing her.
"Of course," Anabelle assured her, "You see this," she brought her right hand closer so Allison could see the ring properly, "When you grow up and receive something from the one you love, it's the most exciting feeling in the world,"
Although Allison was young, she was smart from reading, not to mention that children were naturally inquisitive. So she asked, "But why don't I see mother giggling at her ring the one you do?"
At that question, Anabelle sighed. If Allison asked questions at this rate, she would become a love expert before she grew up.
So she beckoned the girl to come closer and when Allison did, Anabelle whispered into her ears," You see, the thing is, your parents are too old-fashioned,"
"What?" Allison was shocked.
"Shh," Allison pressed her finger against her lips, and added, "By the way, don't tell them I said that. You just keep your lips sealed, you know how strict your mother is," Anabelle felt guilty manipulating her little sister but she couldn't help it, Camille was really scary.
"Also," She decided to offer her a bit of genuine advice this time, "Whenever you have a boy you like, just come to me, I'm the love expert,"
"Really?" Allison's eyes shone.
"Of course," Anabelle really loved this big sister's role. So she began to boast, "The reason why mommy and daddy are together today is because of my hard work. You do know?Isabella and Pedro, right?"
"Of course!" Alison was interested in the conversation, "You made the both of them come together and became a couple and about to get married,"
"You see Pedro and Isabella's love began when they were a kid but then fate intervened and they had to separate. It was so heartbreaking," Anabelle said with dramatic effect, wiping a fake tear from her eyes.
"Pedro grew up very handsomely and Of course, I was the school's beauty as well" Anabelle fluffed her hair, her strands almost getting into her sister's eyes, "But then, there were many sharks and tigress who wanted to get their claws on Pedro and so I did the most honorable thing ever. I preserved Pedro till Isabella returned and they got together finally!" Anabelle lied about the part where she and Pedro dated.
"Wow!"Allison was full of admiration for her younger sister and Anabelle basked in the glory.
She was still in that good mood when Julie called and her happiness skyrocketed. Anabelle at once cleared her throat and with one sweet voice - that even shocked her sister - said, "Hello honey,"
On the other side, Julie had to glance twice at the screen to be sure he hadn't dialed the wrong number.
"Anabelle?" he wanted to confirm?another person wasn't answering her phone.
"Yes," she continued with a tiny, sweet voice.
Julie frowned, "Why are you sounding like this? Did you choke on a bone?"
At once, Anabelle's face fell. Talk about being romantic - that idiot was as old-fashioned as her father. Annoyed, she quickly cleared her throat and resumed her normal voice.
"I'm good,"
Unknown to her, a smile crossed Julie's face, he had intentionally teased her.
"Are you ready to leave," He asked.
"Of course, how can I be late on our date -"
"I'm sorry but our date has been canceled," He announced.
"What?!" Anabelle jerked up at once. She knew it! He was at it but there's no way on earth she was going to let him treat him the same way as last time.
Before she could threaten him, Anabelle heard, "Isabella was rushed to the hospital today,"
"What?!" She yelled for the second time, "Why are you just telling me this?! Why aren't you here so we could go visit her?!"
Julie sighed, "If you had stopped shouting for a minute, you would have been able to hear me drive into your driveway,"
"Huh?" Anabelle was startled and then rushed to the window to find out indeed Julie's car was outside because he flashed his headlights as a signal.
"See you later," Anabelle hurriedly kissed Allison at the temple who still had many questions to ask her on how to know the good guys from the bad ones.
