Revenge For The Restaurant Kissing

Where is she from?

Where is she from?

"Even my Dad and Mom could not recognize me." Laila speaking, affirmed, " Sure, Mr Roberts won't! Hope he is the only problem?" She gave David a hard look and a smile.

"Yeah," David concurred," Soon, " he said, "we will try our game."

"Hehehe," she exclaimed, asking. "When?", intoxicated by her anticipation.

She took a mirror, turning her face before it.

"I will tell him tomorrow I want to get married," said David.

"Okay. You are mature, after all. Then...?"

"Normally, they will ask who is she?" David pointed out.

"They? Mr Roberts and?" she asked, agitation, over her face

"His wife and John, my brother and wife," David counted.

"I haven't seen them," she said, "Except Mr Roberts, would they pose a problem?" She was curious, and she added," We aren't going to be telling them long stories of the past. Isn't it?" storming David with a steely look.

*. *. *

David before Roberts, his

heart cut.

Liars know how to keep their faces straight. But here was David, who had never before practiced lying.

It was like his uncle's eyes were already probing him.

"Where is she from?" Mr Roberts asked.

His heart pounded. Truth dropped from his mouth and he told him, "Territory A."

Uncle Roberts grimaced like a devil lives in that territory.

He asked him who she was.

"I saw her on I*******m." David said," And she had visited me."

"What does she do and from which family?" Mr. Roberts reeled out questions.

David was not comfortable with the second question." Uncle. I am not marrying family." he told him without hiding his feelings.

" In-laws must know in-laws to their homes." his uncle said. " Is she from a royal family?" he asked.

"Uncle?" David, getting peeved, asked, "Why royal?"

Though he was with the Andersons for three years, he knew they were not a royal family by the standard his family would agree with. But he has to defend them as royal or stand on his feet they must be his in-laws despite what he suffered in their home because of Laila.

He wants to marry Laila for a second time and then punish her for the kiss in the restaurant without which, he will not be termed a man.

Punish her and still marry her that was all he wanted

"David." his uncle called him

"Uncle," he answered him.

"Here you go again. Listen " Mr Roberts sounded a warning to avoid the repetition of the past ." When young people are getting married," he said," there will be mechanisms put in place to settle their cases. One of them is the integrity of the families." he mentioned." If your family was involved in your previous whatever," he reminded him," you people would not have parted ways."

Mr Roberts said, but David insisted:

"Uncle, I want to marry this girl."

Sandra, Mr. Roberts's wife who came into the sitting room from her room intervened.

"Okay. Can you introduce her?"

"Yes, Aunty"

"When?"

"I will call you this weekend."

"Then, we expect you, people."

He brooded over the questions by his uncle.

"How did you go?' Laila grimaced, her eyes screwing out words from David.

Would he tell him the questions and his uncle's fear?

No. It would create fear in her and she might fumble in their presence.

*David." she insisted on knowing would get her prepared.

"Are you from a royal family?"

"And what did you say?"

"I told them I want to marry this girl."

She hissed and walked away. She came back, murmuring David did not represent her and her family well.

"What could I have said? " asked David.

"So, the only thing you could say was I want to marry this girl. Who is this girl?" She walked away, coming back murmuring again,

" In this country, my family is rich, what goddamn thing is royal again? Would there be another opportunity to tell them we are rich?" Laila asked.

" We have not consulted your people. What if they would say no?"

" No? So, we are not sure of what we are doing?"

"Not that way. Your family, based on the past could say no."

" Stop thinking negative about your in-laws. Nobody, even you would want a poor son-in-law."

"David was thrown up.

"Yes!" she said thickly." You have a daughter, you trained your daughter, hoping on your daughter, then a stupid idiot sneaked into her with sweet words and sex, not done, ate your meal every day and David, you would be happy?

"Sneaked into her. See the phrase like it was a deceptive marriage."

"If not deceptive. Why not pay, carry, and go?...my family will have no objection now, dear."

She, like her family, emphasizes money in a relationship, and David will see reason to forgive her for the horrible experience he had as an adopted son-in-law in the Andersons' home. But there is one sin he will never forgive
