MARCO
I opened the door immediately introducing myself to Abella's family, her mother was the first to enter giving me a kiss on the cheek and walking in. Her stepfather extended his hand and I took it shaking it firmly, and finally her stepbrother walked in with a bored expression on his face, as though this wasn't enough for him. Nevertheless, I greeted him with a smile on my face as he entered the house. Completely disregarding me, he walks over to Abella greeting her. I already wanted to hurt him for even touching her, keep calm Marco. I've got a long night ahead of me.
"I'm so glad you guys made it." Abella exclaims as we take her family into the living room, once everyone is seated the waiters all come in offering drinks.
I excuse myself heading to the kitchen to check in with Erik, he was sat on the kitchen island drinking some sort of alcoholic beverage, "Erik they're here." I told him, he nodded his head making his way to greet Abella's family.
From first impressions her stepdad gave off a much better attitude than her stepbrother as well as her mother who I've met before and is lovely as ever. Her stepbrother whose name I believed was Antoine walked into the living room last trailing behind his parents before sitting himself down taking a beverage from one of the waiters tray. I walked back into the living room introducing Erik and Antoine's gaze froze upon seeing Erik, am I missing something here? Erik hadn't the slightest idea why Antoine was staring at him like that.
Abella seemed to have disappeared as she wasn't in the living room anymore, she ended up coming from the kitchen announcing that dinner was ready and served on the table. I told her hand waiting for everyone to stand up, we both guided every though to the dining room showing them their seats. I was sat across from Antoine with Abella on my left and Marco on my right, everyone starting eating the meal placed in front of us.
"So Mr Dubois how did you and Mrs Dubois meet?" I asked breaking the silence, he stopped eating wiping his mouth before speaking.
"Oh please call me Thomas—" He chuckled as I nodded my head, "Well Laurel and I met at work, you see we both work in human resources for this company and well I guess fate took it from there." He explained, Abella smiled sweetly at the story probably having heard it a million times.
"Ah, that's amazing." I stated, Antoine sat beside his father looking displeased with the conversation as well as the food.
"How did you and Abella meet?" He asked, I'd never actually explained the story to anyone but on a daily basis I always remember the moment she walked into the bar with Pierre's wife. I jerked my head towards her knowing she was practically dying to tell the story.
