Diary Of A Bitch 43 Visit To The Browns' 1

" You're nothing but a wh.o.r.e....". Lizzy's dark gaze looked murderous

"You're a disgrace to the c.o.kers...". Dads glare sent daggers my way

"I thought I knew you...", Becky's face was seen this time.

" I'm getting married! ". it was Kelvin

" You can never take Chloe's place in his heart!". Joey also starred in this episode of the nightmare.

And the voice kept taunting me till I heard a gunshot and jumped up in fright. When would I stop having this nightmare? and why does it keep adding new characters?. I poured myself a gla.s.s of water and glanced at the wall clock. It was only a minute past 3am. It is bad for the baby if I'm not able rest properly right?, but why does my sleep keeps getting interrupted by gruesome nightmares?. I sighed heavily and closed my eyes to hopefully get some sleep.

4:51am

After tossing and turning without succeeding to get to sleep,I went downstairs and made myself a mug of hot cocoa. That kinda reduced my anxiety, I started up preparations for breakfast as it would help me suppress all the excessive thoughts and tension. I was going to be meeting the Browns, who knows what's in store for me?.

I prepared a simple meal of fried yam and sauce for the whole house population but by the time I was done serving everyone, it was already past 7am. I served Mr. Gorgeous but did not seat down to eat with him, I went upstairs instead to get ready for the family showdown I was going to be witnessing soon.

I wore a black chiffon gown that had a not-too-high, not-too-low neckline, it had floral designs in the upper part and falls into four long and graceful pleats from the waistline downwards. I didn't bother with makeup, I wasn't going on a date and I definitely didn't want to attract unnecessary attention. I took a pair of sandals from the shoe rack but didn't put it on just yet. I Double checked the gifts I had Joe go to the mall to buy and wrap for me yesterday, I made sure everything was perfect and handed the gifts bag over to a white haired servant to deliver it to the car. I took a final look at myself at the vanity mirror before going out of the room, hoping for the possible best outcome of the 'family reunion' thing.

Mr. Gorgeous was already waiting at the back seat of the SUV we were to make the journey in, I quickened by steps and hurriedly got into the car before Joe gently closed the door and drove off to the Browns'.

Throughout the journey that took approximately 2 hours, the car was dead silent, not even a word was breathed. Mr. Gorgeous was busy on his laptop all through, not even sparing me a glance and Joe kept staring at us suspiciously through the rearview mirror. I s.h.i.+fted uncomfortably from time to time and eventually focused on the scenery.

"We're here Sir, ma'am". Joe switched off the car engine and hurriedly came out to open the door for his master. I still wasn't used to having an old man wait on me so I got out of the car on my own before he offered to help. Clutching my purse tightly, I turned around to behold a heavenly sight.

The Brown estate was the true definition of luxury. With vast garden s.p.a.ce to the right and an ocean size swimming pool to the left. A water fountain stood proudly at the middle of the pool and garden as if it was a boundary. Ornamental shrubs lead us to the open entrance of the house. Mr. Gorgeous walked hand in hand with me and bent down to whisper that I act like we're in love. This guy is actually using me now but I don't care, I'll do anything for my baby.

We were greeted by a Butler and two old maids. They respectfully showed us up to the study where everyone was already present. Joe had brought the gifts from the car and handed them to the butler.

" If it isn't my step brother and his... escort". A man with a million dollar business suit snickered the moment we stepped in. OK, this is it Vee Vee, you're in deep s.h.i.+t.

"h.e.l.lo Kelly, it's nice to finally meet you after so long". His tone sounded polite but his expression was grim. He walked over with me to his Dad and greeted him indifferently.

" Everyone meet Vee Vee, my wife". There was a total of six people in the room apart from Mr. Gorgeous and I. All of their expressions registered shock except Mr. Brown. A s.l.u.tty woman with a dress that barely covered her large cleavage was the first to recover.

"Kelly, tell me it's not true, your brother is joking right?". She tugged at the sleeve of the man that spoke the moment we stepped in, snapping him out of his daze.

" Congratulations, brother in law ". Another slim, pet.i.te figure with an engagement ring on her left hand smiled at us sincerely. She seemed like an average person judging from her dressing.

I took their silence as a cue to present my gifts.

" h.e.l.lo everyone, as I was informed beforehand of this meeting, I got everyone a gift". I took the gifts bag from the butler and went straight to my father in-law, he beamed with happiness and collected the wrapped box that contained a very expensive perfume, it was purchased with his son's money anyways.

"That's really thoughtful of you dear, thank you. Kyra and Bella, you should learn a thing or two from her". I could feel the glares even if my back were to them.

" Sure father, sister in-law looks like a very lovely person, it'll be an honour to learn a trick or two from her". It was the pet.i.te girl, why do I get the vibe that she's trying too much to please everyone in the room. I plastered an awkward smile on my face and made a way to give my stepmother in-law her gift.

"Why are you suddenly feeling on top of the world. Just because you got married to that b.a.s.t.a.r.d, you think you can now share gifts like you're doing charity?, how audacious. I'm not falling for your cheap tricks and poor act" she barked and stomped off with her husband trailing behind her. Just how much does she hate Mr. Gorgeous?, she didn't even hide her hatred in the least. I stood rigid, like a rock to that same position. What was I actually thinking when I brought gifts along?, that they'll accept it with open arms and praise me for being so kind?

"Tell your s.l.u.t to stay in her limits Bro". Kenneth was the one that spoke this time.

"I wouldn't stand here and watch you insult my wife, if you call her names again, I promise you, I won't stay quiet". Mr. Gorgeous walked over to me and took my hand possessively. He actually stood up for me?

" What will you do, step brother?, are you going to beat us up?, like you can even stand up for yourself. Coward". Kelly spat and rushed towards us, with is girlfriend smirking maliciously. Isn't this the reunion of the century?.

"Don't push me, I'll crush you if you get any closer". Mr. Gorgeous' murderous tone stopped Kelly in his tracks, he was shocked for a moment but stood his ground and glowered at Mr. Gorgeous who also returned the favour. The staring contest was interrupted by Mr. Brown.

" What are you boys doing glaring at each other?, everyone to the dining table,lunch is served". He said and dragged me away from Mr. Gorgeous' hold as if he was afraid we'll leave.

"So my sweetheart, tell me about yourself".

I inwardly sighed as I realised I wasn't mistaking on this one, and by the looks of things, the worst is yet to come
