THEODORE RESIDENCE
Freda slowed down the car as she got to Theodore’s house, she off the engine and parked the car perfectly.
The minute she walked into the living room she jumped on Ximena and shouted
“I’m so happy for you bestie!”
“Freda Nero you’re suffocating me, I can’t breathe,” Ximena half yelled
“Don’t mind me bestie, I’m just happy for you, look at you, see the way your diamond ring is shinning brightly on your finger. Do you think Autry can afford this costly ring?” Freda spoke with great exaggeration
She held Ximena’s hand and stared at the ring on her finger for a long moments, obviously very happy as she gave her a radiant smile.
“Common, Eyal Banks is the best, just within few weeks of your relationship he has already engaged you. Do you see what I’m talking about now, congratulations Mena,” Freda said proudly
“Thank you Freda, if not for you I would still be dating Autry. We dated for four months and he didn’t propose, Eyal has already engaged me within three weeks of our relationship, he has even picked the date for our wedding,” Ximena muttered
Freda was filled and energized by positive emotions as she jumped with excitement when she heard the news from her friend
“Wow! I can’t wait to rock your wedding party. I have to tell Ace to order my clothes from Switzerland
I want your wedding to be a once in a lifetime, so I have to start planning to make it a memorable day for you,” Freda said
“I trust you bestie, I can’t wait to get married to the popular Eyal Banks,” Ximena blushed
“Very soon you will become Mrs Ximena Eyal Banks, sounds sweet right? You’re so lucky Mena, Just enjoy your life to the fullest,” Freda said, displaying an emotion of enthusiasm
The pair seemed deeply engrossed in their conversation that they did not even noticed Greta that just came out of the kitchen to join them.
Smiling brightly at each other, their head were close together, oblivious to the rest of the world
Greta rolled her eyes and deliberately cleared her throat as she approached them
“Hi Freda,” Greta greated her with a big smile
“Pretty how are you doing?” Freda asked as she returned the smile
“I’m good and I can see that you’re good, see the way you’re glowing,” Greta said, making Freda to chuckle
“Have you started planning for your sister’s wedding?” Freda asked Greta
“Wedding? three weeks relationship and you’re already planning for wedding, that’s too sudden,” Greta stated
“Common Greta, just be happy for your sister, it’s not too sudden, three weeks is enough, what are they still waiting for since there’s money to spend,” Freda shrugged
“I hope you’re not making a big mistake, I pray you don’t regret leaving Autry,” Greta spoke scornfully as she was not enthusiastic about the whole thing.
“You have started again Greta, I don’t know why Mum even gave birth to you, I should have been the only child just like Freda,” Ximena hissed, the look on her face showed that she was very displeased with what Greta had just said.
“Don’t you know what people that doesn’t like siblings do?
You can get rid of me to have a peaceful life,” Greta retorted and raced upstairs
Ximena stood in silence as she stared at her sister’s retreating figure, she looked confused and nervous as if she began to have second thoughts about her hurried decision.
Freda noticed that she was distracted, she tapped her shoulder gently so as to get her attention
“Don’t worry bestie, I will handle everything, I’m more than capable, just relax and let me do the work for you,” Freda whispered while Ximena gave her a hug as Freda’s soothing words had effect on her and subdued her fears.
