Chapter Thirteen
Erica stood by the kitchen, watching the wedding from far distance. It was about to commence.
She saw Mr Greg as he walked towards his decorated chair. He was a tall man with beards. He looked so young even if he’s over sixty.
She could see how guards walked behind him as he walked majestically.
“What the… Is that a tiger?” Erica murmured.
There was a tiger walking beside him.
He sat on his chair and the tiger laid in front of him.
Suddenly, the bride appeared. She was a lady of about thirty years. She had a smile on her face. Erica saw how happy she was.
“Excuse me…”
“Oh sorry” she said and cleared the road for one of the waiter to pass into the kitchen.
Then she realized something. She hasn’t heard such voice before. She followed him into the kitchen and folded her arms.
“What do you want?” She asked.
“I’m here to get some drinks” he said.
“Then what are you doing in the food area?” She asked, squeezing her face.
He tries to hide his face.
“I’m sorry” he said and walked towards the drinks.
He picked them slowly, arranging them on the tray.
Erica didn’t want to get him of her sight and she found his suspicious.
“Where is your ID card?” She asked.
He stopped and turned to stare at Erica.
He tried to look innocent but couldn’t.
“It fell into the toilet” he lied.
Erica smirked.
“And you didn’t grab it” she said.
The man quickly frowned.
“What? Grab… I mean, I’m sorry ma’am. I couldn’t grab it” he said.
Erica walked towards him and touched his face.
She reached his moustache and riped it away from his face.
“Argh!” He groaned in face.
Erica could tell that the moustache was fake. She remembered when her brother used it to get into club when he was young.
“I don’t know who you are. So, I’ll be calling the security now” she turned.
The man started to panick. He won’t let Erica ruined his plan.
He quickly ran to her and grabbed her.
“Hey!! Let go of me you jerk!!!” She yelled.
“Oh you keep quiet little brat. I can’t let you ruin my plan” he said and threw her to a chair.
He grabbed some clothes and tied her to the chair.
He also tied her mouth and stood in front of her.
“I’m deeply sorry for this. But if I let you go, your ruin my plan”
Erica couldn’t talk. She just struggled with her body, trying to free herself from the chair.
He walked to the food area and touched the gas.
“I’m going to turn this thing on” he said and started laughing.
Erica quickly stopped struggling after hearing the laugh. It was the same laugh she heard in her dream, the funny laugh.
“I can’t let my wife get married to that old man. Can you believe that she did all that she could do to throw me into prison and she ended up winning.
Now I’m out of jail, I saw she’s about to get married to that stupid billionaire. I’ll bring everything down!!” He said again and started laughing.
THE MAN IN MY DREAMS : CHAPTER 11 – 20
Calvin walked towards Barbie who was on her phone.
“Hey Barb, have you seen Erica?” He asked.
Barbie shot him a glare.
“Am I in charge of looking after that pest?”
“That’s not how to answer a question. Yes or no?”
“She’s in the kitchen” she answered and diverted her gaze from him.
“Thanks!” He said and walked towards the kitchen.
As he walked closer, he heard laughs.
“Who could that be?” He murmured and entered into the kitchen.
He saw Erica tied to a chair while he saw the one laughing beside the cooking gas.
“Who the fk are you?” He yelled.
“Who are you too?” He asked in reply.
Calvin quickly untied Erica. She sprung up and started panting.
“He is the one that’s going to ruin the wedding!” She said.
“Hurry, get the security” Calvin said.
Erica nodded.
She didn’t know if it was Calvin or Kelvin.
She just ran out of the kitchen and started looking for the security.
She saw the party was already commencing. The ceremony was over.
She stumbled and almost fell.
“Watch where you are going!”
“I’m sorry” she said and stared at him.
She saw it was one of the twin again.
“Why do I keep seeing them everywhere?” She thought.
She turned and wanted to run.
She stopped and stared at him, walking away.
“You didn’t want to believe me when I said someone wants to ruin this wedding. Go to the kitchen and check for yourself!” She said and walked away.
Kelvin heard her and frowned.
“What’s she talking about?” He murmured and walked away.
.
.
“You haven’t told me who you are and what you are doing here?” Calvin asked, dipping his hand into his pocket.
The stranger remained silent.
“Why are you trying to ruin my father’s wedding?” He asked again.
The stranger secretly grabbed a knlfe.
“My name is Johnny Bush. I…the…” He stammered and walked towards him. As he wanted to attack him, someone held his hand.
It turned out to be Kelvin.
He twisted his hand to the back and shook it, making the knife fall out.
“Argh!” He groaned.
“Thanks bro. He kidnapped Erica and also tried to harm me. I should call the cops” Calvin said and left to call the police.
Kelvin grabbed his neck.
“I don’t know what your notice is. But stay away from this family!” He yelled.
Johnny nodded repeatedly.
“Yes, yes. Please let me go” he said, choking.
The security guards walked into the kitchen.
“There he is. Take him away!” Erica pointed at Johnny.
They grabbed him and took him away.
Erica held her wrist where he tied him.
She turned and saw Kelvin but thought he was Calvin.
“Thank you for saving me sir” he said.
Calvin walked in.
“I’ve called the cops. They would be here any seconds. I’m glad you are alright Erica” he said.
Erica turned and stared at Kelvin who had a glimpse of smile on his face.
She nodded and left the kitchen.
.
After some seconds, they started serving the food. The wedding went on for hours before coming to an end.
Mr Greg made a speech after which he called his special sons, Kelvin and Calvin to make a toast for him and his new wife. He loved Calvin the more because he was cheerful and always smiling.
Their step siblings hated them because their father cherished them the more.
Even their mother but she wasn’t feeling too well. She didn’t attend the wedding.
Erica stood, watching as Calvin spoke, making a toast for his father.
When Kelvin was about to talk, she squeezed her face and left the place. She didn’t know why she finds him so annoying already.
She just hope she don’t make a mistake insulting Calvin instead of him one day.
The older ones left the wedding while the younger people were left at the wedding.
They were all dancing and drinking, almost turning the party to a club.
Erica just sat on an empty chair drinking alcohol.
She poured some into her glass and poured it into her mouth.
“Yay! Fourty Three!” She yelled and banged the cup on the table.
Kelvin walked towards her and placed his legs on the table.
“When are you going to be done?” He asked.
Erica shot him a glare.
“Who are you? Have we met before?” She asked.
Kelvin sighed deeply.
“You are drunk” he said.
“And so what? Are you going to report me to my mother? Oops, my mom’s dead. I forgot” she said and started laughing.
Kelvin stood up from his chair.
“Let me take you to your room ” he said, trying to grab her arm.
Erica be.ats his hands off.
“Don’t touch me. I said I have no idea who you are” she said and belched.
She was really drunk.
“Calvin asked me to take you to your room. He excorted father to the airport”
“I see…” She said and also stood up and sat on the table.
She loosed her hair and brushed her finger into it.
“Why is it so hot out here?” She said and threw her hair to the back, exposing her shoulders in front of him.
Kelvin swallowed hard and moved closer to her.
“Erica! Let me take you inside” he said.
Erica held his tie and drew it closer to her face.
“Or what?” She whispered to him.
