Chapter 45: Going On A Trip
(Author’s POV)
And just like that, the chance for Myra to return back home early, was gone. She knew it would be difficult to convince Nora, but she didn’t know that it would create such a drama like those typical daily soaps.
’Arghhhhh, it’s all because of that jerk who calls himself Alpha, huhh, total mental case. If he wouldn’t have passed rude comments, I wouldn’t have lost my temper midway and I would have told Nora after breakfast.’ I grabbed my spoon and clenched it hard, smiling narrowly at Nora who smiling and crying, both at the same time.
"Nora, let Myra eat and you eat too, dear. I’m sure you all are hungry. I have important matters to attend so I’ll take my leave, then-" Sara, very elegantly and gracefully, walked out of the dining room, like a queen she is, to make room for the children talk.
Nora hugged Myra tightly from the side, "I knew you would never turn down my request, you are the best, Ra-ra." Myra only smiled at her, but her smile was stiff. She spoke inwardly, ’Good for you but bad for me.’ freewebnøvel.com
Brave interrupted both of them from Nora’s one sided sisterly display, got up and mumbled something, "I am done. I’ll get going now" and too, walked off. Myra’s true fragrance was too strong for him to control himself; he really needed some fresh air. It was getting tough for him to handle. After he got out of the room, he leaned onto the door and took a deep long breath. ’I really need to do something about this; otherwise, I’ll go nuts.’ His nostrils were flaring by that lingering enchanting smell.
Now, only Myra, Dion and both the birthday siblings were present in the dining room. The room fell into an awkward silence, that’s when Elio decided to break the ice and spoke again, "Myra, Nora, ummm, if you are girls are free, how about all of us go to somewhere for some sightseeing, today?" He looked at Nora and gestured her to back his suggestion.
Nora smirked at him and countered, teasing him, "Nahh, not sightseeing, if we have to go somewhere, why not go to an amusement park? It will be fun." She made a playful face at Elio and then grinned from ear to ear, waiting for Myra to reply.
Before Myra could answer her, Elio intruded, "Amusement park is good, but I won’t be suggesting going in this weather. It is quite windy today and even though Myra has recovered from her injury, it is still too early. She shouldn’t take any risk. Plus, she had a fever a few days back."
Nora contemplated for a while, then turned to Dion, giving him a chance to make an impression and suggest some worthy place, "Brother Dion, why are you so quiet today? This is so unlike you. Why don’t you tell us, where should we all go to? You must know a lot of fun places, right?"
Dion was just biding his time, waiting for an opportunity to strike up a conversation, so he took this chance extended to him with both hands. "Ummm, fun places, there are many. We can go to an indoor theme park or we can go to an escape room for some thrill, or how about camping, night camp? This is the best time for that."
"I knew you wouldn’t disappoint me, Brother Dion. Being a socialite has its own perks" Nora praised Dion. Then she looked at Myra again, asking her what she would choose.
Myra’s mind was not fully on the conversation, she was still internally cursing Alaric so she didn’t grasp what Dion said and simply brushed off, "Any place is fine, you can decide, Nor. After all, it is your birthday, so we’ll do what you want."
Nora beamed at Myra’s answer and declared, "So, okayyyyyy. Then, it’s decided, we are, going for a, camping trip, you, me and all my siblings. Yeah, I always wanted to go camping."
Myra’s eyes widen at Nora’s words, ’What? All what? All of the jerks are going to join us. And here I though by agreeing to go somewhere with Nora, I could take a breather from these brothers for a short while. Jeez, where has all my luck gone?’ She wanted to say this out loud but held herself back, she simplified her words, "Your brothers are busy with work, let’s not disturb them. It would be very rude."
Nora brushed off, thinking it as Myra’s concerning about her family, "Don’t worry, it won’t be a problem. And like you said, it is my birthday today, that too my first with my family, so they won’t say no. Aaaahhh, I’m so damn excited. It is going to be so thrilling and fun. I can’t wait for tonight."
The breakfast went peacefully afterwards; at least for the siblings it was peaceful.
Nora was happy; Elio was elated as well, and Dion, he was relieved, that somehow Myra’s departure was delayed; now he could confirm whether she was really his mate.
Myra was the only one who was tensed and somewhat irritated. She was so ready to get out of this place. But now she was stuck, even if it was for just a few more days.
After breakfast, everyone got busy to prepare for the camping trip. Nora took Myra to the terrace, made her sit under the blooming bougainvillea vines which was covering the swing chair, "Myra, tell me now, what happened for you to shorten your trip so suddenly? You have to tell me honestly."
"Nothing happened, seriously. I am just missing home and the new semester is also coming" Myra stood by her excuse.
Nora squinted her eyes at Myra, "Then what about your face? Why is it so pale? Something happened to you, isn’t it? Don’t hide anything from me. I am your friend, if I’ll not listen to you, who will. I am always there for you."
Myra was touched by Nora’s sincerity, but nevertheless she couldn’t disclose the real reason and make a mockery out of her siblings. She looked Nora in the eyes and replied confidently, "I just had a nightmare, so didn’t get much sleep. I am completely fine, now, really."
"And why did you leave the party so early?" Nora threw another question at her.
Myra was stuck this time, thinking what to say to appease Nora. She took her time and told another lie, "Uhh that, I got too tired. You know I am not a party person. And that dress and the heels were, uhh, too much to handle."
Nora observed Myra for a few seconds and then conceded, "Okay, if you say so, I’ll trust you but if anything is bothering you, even if it’s small, do tell me. I can’t stand watching you so dull, my heartaches at the sight."
Myra gave Nora a genuine smile and hugged her tightly, "I know Nor, I feel the same. If I encounter anything bothersome, I’ll surly tell you, I promise" her fingers were crossed. She was not accustomed to lying, but ever since she stepped at the Everests mansion she has been breaking her principles.
Soon it was evening, and all the preparations were done. Dion took charge to make there camping trip and night to remember.
