Chapter 9 A weekend to remember

Amelia POV When I left the mansion, I couldn't go home because my mum would freak out so I called Larry and went to his place. Larry's mansion was big and beautiful but not as beautiful and big as the Blackstone's. At least he has a decent home. " The master will be with you soon" a maid informed me as I was ushered in. "Thanks " I replied her. I sat down on one of the couches and look around the house, it was decorated beautifully with chandeliers, lights, and flowers. Larry banks used to be Dylan's best friend but everything change because of the past. I felt like I was the reason behind their break up because Larry cut all ties with Dylan after he heard what happened. "Amelia" Larry called my name as he walked into the living room with Sophia. "Hey Amy, I missed you, it's been a week. you didn't call me like you promised " Sophia rushed to greet me and unintentionally hurt my injured hand. "Ouch" I groaned out in pain. Larry quickly grabbed my hand and looked at it, he removed the clothing I used to cover it. "What the hell Amelia, how did this happen? Who did this? " he asked as he looked at the hand. "It was a mistake," I said but I could see Sophia giving me a curious look. "I know when you are lying Amelia, that is not a mistake who did this? " she asked. I took a deep breath before explaining the truth behind the hand. "What the heck? Rebecca did this? What did Dylan do?"Larry asked folding his arm. "he doesn't know, I left without telling him" "You didn't tell him? you didn't tell him the kind of evil person his mother is? Why Amelia?"He shouted. "Because I didn't want to hurt him"I shouted back and burst into tears, Sophia pat me on the back as I cried. " I loved him. Larry, you love Sophia, right? " I asked and he nodded. " how will you feel if she is hurt by what you say? " "Of course I'll feel bad but that not the case here Amelia" he argued and when I tried to reply to him, Sophia stopped me. "Okay that enough, we will talk about this later, let get your hand treated first. It looks pretty bad" Sophia said, she grabbed my arm and lead me to a room. I sat down on the bed and looked at her, she went out of the room and returned a few seconds later with a bowl filled with water and a first aid kit "Here, dip your hand inside this water" she ordered like my mother. "Yes, mum" I replied smiling at her, and dipped my hand into the warm water. We didn't say anything as we stared at each other but I couldn't stay silent so I spoke out first. "I know you have something to say," I said and she nods. "Go on say it," I told her and waited for her reply. "Dylan still loves you" she blurted out and I gave her a weird look. "He told you that? " I asked her but she shook her head. " I know Amelia, that night when you left the party and he went to look for you, I could read his expression and I know he cares a lot about you. " Sophia stood up from where she was sitting and walked to me, she removed my hand from the water and placed it on a clean towel gently. "What makes you say that Sophia? I know Dylan than you do. He loathes me and he is in love with Anna and they are getting married" I told her and she slapped my head. "Ouch, Sophia it's hurt " I groaned, she chuckled and apply an ointment on the hand. "Thank you". "This should reduce the pain, for now, here take this painkiller and sleep" she hand over a pill of Advil and water for me to take. "You and Dylan are just idiots Amelia, the question is if you have the chance to be with him will you take it? " she asked. I took the pill and gave her the cup."rest now Amelia, think about what I have said. You don't have to answer now but you should think deeply about it. Rest now" she said. I walked to the bed and lay on it, sleep quickly consumes me, It might be the effect of the drug. ** When I woke up, it was already dark outside. My head was pounding and I felt dizzy, I stood up from the bed and walked out of the room, then I walked into the living room. Sophia and Larry were both watching a movie when I walked in, they looked happy. It could have been Dylan and me. For a moment I was jealous of their happiness and thought about how I could have been happy with Dylan. I let the thought fade away as I got closer to them. I was their friend and been jealous of them was not a good thing. "Hey there Amy, didn't see you walk in" Larry snapped me out of my thought. " how are you feeling? " he asked sounding concerned. "I'm good, thanks to Sophia" I replied. "Sit down Amelia and watch the movie with us while we wait for dinner" Sophia invited me to join their movie but I declined. "No Amelia, I have to go. My mother must be worried by now " I explained to her. "Oh about that, I went through your jacket and saw your phone. I already texted your mum that you were with me" Sophia told me looking guilty. "No problem Sophia, I'll stay," I told her and she squealed. "What movie is this? "I pointed to the movie showing on TV. "Oh, it's Always a bridesmaid, a very interesting movie. It's about a girl...." she began to explain the movie to me and I found myself listening to it because her explanation amuses me. After all, she was talking exactly like they did in the movie. Mimicking someone was one of Sophia's talents, she was very good at it. We finished the movie, had dinner, and talked about some pieces of stuff before going to bed. *The next day* I woke up feeling alright and happy, I took my bath, wear the clothe Sophia provided for me and since today was Saturday, it was an off day for me and I was happy. "How is your hand? "Sophia asked as we eat breakfast. I replied by showing her my hand. "It looks better now but it going to leave a scar," I told her. "Alright take care of it, since today is Saturday You are coming with us to the restaurant," Sophia said. I forgot to mention that Larry was a chef, a renowned chef in the country. He has one of the biggest restaurants in the city and he was doing well because it had always been his dream. "It going to be fun Amelia, we could go shopping and spa," she said. "Larry never allows me to go alone" she pouted. "Babe it's because I love you, you are pregnant and I want someone to be with you at the time" Larry expressed himself. "I'm not an invalid Larry" Sophia screamed and threw her spoon at Larry, luckily for him he dodges it and the spoon landed beside him. "Babe, don't be aggressive" he cooed and pat her head. "I love you baby and you are not an invalid, I have to take care of you and our baby" he kissed her on the head and before I knew it they started kissing like I wasn't there. I cleared my throat and broke them from their short romantic session. "I'm still here people, you can do your lovey-dovey when am not here," I told them and continued to eat my food. They both looked at each other and suddenly burst into laughter and I wondered why. " what? " I asked but they didn't answer and continued laughing. "Fuck you both," I told them, and then I started laughing with them, we all laughed and I didn't even know what we were laughing at. It's was fun being with them because they made me forgot all the things I was thinking about. When we got to Larry's restaurant he prepared a special meal for Sophia and me, after that we took ice cream, and then Larry drove us to the spa. Sophia and I chased him away when he wanted to stay and told him to come back when we were done. He declined at first but Sophia threatened him with something I didn't bother to hear and he ran off. We had the best massage at the spa. "What is the gender of your baby, Sophia? "I asked her as we shop for some dresses. "Larry and I have decided not to check the gender of the baby because we want to be surprised" she explained and rubbed her belly. "Here touch it" she grabbed my hand and placed it on her belly. "Hello baby, this is your auntie speaking. "I felt a kick and quickly removed my hand. " the baby just kick, awwwwn you recognized your aunt"Sophia cooed. "I'm happy for you Sophia, you have a perfect life, a good husband, and a child on the way," I commented and she hugged me. " I love you babe" she confessed. "I love you too" I replied to her. After the shopping, Larry dropped me home and came in to greet my mother. She was happy to see him after a long time. he left after spending some hours with us because he couldn't leave Sophia for long. I was happy with my weekend because I spent it with my friends but I found myself thinking about what Sophia said. "do I still love Dylan?". ____________________________________ Thanks for reading.
