Chapter 10

"I think you knew your mom wasn't going to agree to the Osso Buco". Mr Saint said when the waiter had left. "Well, Aurora said if you can try, it means there's the possibility of other outcomes, so always try". Paul responds with a shrug. "Do you follow everything Aurora says?" Mr Saint asks. "Well she's cool and brainy". "Well food's here and I want your manners". Mrs Saint interrupted, putting an end to the conversation. "Thanks Steve". Mrs Saint responded as she stepped out of the dessert house. "Thanks for your patronage, do come back another time". "Well, there's no need to urge me I'll surely be back as long as you're here and the pastries and cakes still tastes the same, you guys make the best in town". "We're flattered, ma'am and thanks for the tip as usual". "You're welcome Steve do have a good night". "You too ma'am". "Let's go Paul". Mrs Saint beckoned on her son, her husband was already back during the time she was saying goodbyes to Steve. "Calm down mademoiselle, here change your shoes were you planning on walking home in that. Mr Saint bends down holding comfortable running sneakers and helps her out of her heels. "Well walking in heels is nothing difficult for me while I was young I attended dinner parties where I stood hours in heels of different inches". "You have spoken well, when you were younger now you're older I won't risk you breaking an ankle". "The walk is barely 10 minutes justice". "The shoe is waiting to be worn, Julianne". The family has a very slow walk back home it was during spring the night air was cool and they were dressed lightly enough to enjoy the breeze, this is the quality family time every member of the house had missed during the absence of Mr Saint. "I feel light so light like I could fly". Mrs Saint said on their arrival at the house. "I'm very sure you'll feel better when we get in and you get to choose whatever telenovela we watch". Paul said. "Really, I get to. Yes, that's everything that is needed to make this night perfect". Mrs Saint said having a look of bliss on her face. "Williams". Mr Saint called. "Yes, master". The driver answered walking over with huge strides. "How'd your day go, can you please help pick up the car at the gas station next to the dessert stall, our madame here wanted to enjoy the breeze and ended up making us ditch the car and coming home by foot". "You sly as if you didn't enjoy the cool night air". " I could have enjoyed the cool night air in my car with my windows wind down". "I'd rather watch my telenovela than argue out the toss with you here". "Paulo, get in, dad would join us when he's done telling stories. Mr Williams this is yours I thought you might like some sweets while you read the papers". Mrs Saint said handing over a bag to Mr Williams. "Let's go in enough chitchats for the night". The entire family head in for a night of movies. On entering the house Mrs Saint dashes straight to the second living room for a family movie night. She is given the honour of selecting the movie of her choice and very soon the family are all seated with desserts and watching the movie chosen by Mrs saint. After a short while Mrs Saint decides it's time for Paul to go to sleep since he has a long day of outing with the girls the next day. Paul bids his father and mum goodnight and goes to bed, following the exit of Paul, Mr Saint decides that they had also had enough time watching the movie and they go into the bedroom to continue what was started in the evening. Paul goes upstairs to prepare for the outing the next day, his mum had asked him to go upstairs so he could sleep early, since he had a long day the next day, however the excitement of hanging out with the girls kept him up and after a while if battling with it and trying to fall asleep, he decides to pick out an outfit. Aurora had stressed that he should come very early the next day so he knew he had to have everything prepared if not he would have his head on a platter when he gets to the Salvatore's Mansion the next day. He begins to rummage through his wardrobe looking for an appropiate outfit for the outing, they were going to an amusement park so it's better to be dressed comfortable in casual outfits and not pick something that stands out or would look too official, so he decided on checkered shirts on jeans with white sneakers "okay this looks great" Paul thought to himself. " Damn should have asked the girls what they would wear and i would have picked out something that would match their's Paul thought aloud slamming his head what a slowbrain he has but then it's fine they could always wear matching outfits another time. Paul gets caught up in the thoughts of what tomorrow would be like. They are going to dreamland amusement park, he has not gone there before and it is a very popular place rumored to have the best ghost house. It is definitely going to be amazing. He had always imagined what it would be like going with the girls and his imaginations are finally coming true, it's going to be so much fun, he can already imagine them going into the ghost house, Aurora would definitely love that, although none of them could possibly get scared it was all just people cosplaying and acting scary, he had wanted to go on the roller coaster for a while now it is said if you make a wish when it's the highest your wish comes true, it might just be human myth but he really wanted to give it a trial. "Maybe, just maybe if we climb together I could confess when it's in the highest, tell her my feelings, who knows, mom is right the more I wait the riskier. Only the stars know our fate now whatever you hold for us let it be good". Paul said talking to no in precise his face lifted to the ceiling of his room. THE VEIL ON THE DARK
