NOVEL NEXT Chapter 41: Second Wish.
"Why they came looking for you." No matter what happened, Marrie has special place for them in her heart. She knew they consider her more than her daughter-in-law.
"They offered us to move in them."
"Not at all." Mother Marrie said.
"I said the same thing. I rejected their offer."
"Good."
"But they asked me, that their 45th anniversary is approaching. They want us to be there. I'm the only grandchild left."
Mother Marrie was silent. She didn't to reject but she is not interested in facing her husband there.
Anna sighed. She knew her mother wanted to attend it. But, she is holding herself back.
Anna put her hand on her mother's hand and said,
"Mom if you want to attend, just tell me. I will arrange things. You will not feel uncomfortable, I ensure you."
"Ask you grandparents this first." Said mother Marrie and she laid back on the couch.
"I will make a phone call."
Anna made a phone call and asked her grandparents if her father would be there, they said No.
"Mom, we can go. He will be not there."
"Hmm. Wash your hands, Dinner is ready."
....
After dinner, she went to her room and completed her homework. She messaged Alex, by telling him, her second wish.
ANNA- I want to go to theatre and watch a movie.
ALEX- Are you kidding me? You never watched any movie?
ANNA- Ofcource I did, but that was few years ago when I watched a movie in Theatre. When can we go?
ALEX- Tomorrow Night.
ANNA- Done!
She was really very grateful for Alex, taking out his precious time for her. She wanted to fulfill her 4 wishes before she leave for her grandparent's anniversary party.
...
Next day, she went to the cafe for work but left early. She noticed that same person whom she had seen on that day, The Weird Person. But she chose to ignore him.
After coming home, she got ready to go to mall.
"Mom, why we are going for shopping?" asked Anna. She was not a shopping fan.
"You see, your uncle is going to get marry and even we have to attend Walker's party so we need a makeover of the closet."
Oh! How can she forget that Walker's party is a lavish party. All socialites are going to present there.
They went into a shop and decided to select a dress.
"Anna, try this one." Mother Marrie pointed out a red velvet dress, backless.
"Mom, its too revealing."
"Girls of your age liked to wear revealing cloths and here you are. Go and try."
Anna went to dressing room. She suddenly heard some voice but.
"James!! You are the best! Ahh... yess...."
Anna wasn't a child and she knew these voices but she was shocked hearing James name.
'Is he that same James or anyone else?' Anna thought.
"Tia, morn my name. Loudly.... Yess.. Yes Ah.."
Anna was shocked beyond words. The girl f**king in next dressing room was none other than Tia.
