- “Are you ready yet, Misako?” Carla yelled at Misako who was still sleeping in her bed. Her round, gray eyes mid-opened, and she was dreaming of the day Boris will propose to her in her favorite restaurant in town. She did not know what happened because she woke up in the middle of the dream questioning what would be her reply if it ever came up for real. Surely, Boris proposed and she agreed to marry him.  

- “Misako, I have something I have to go buy at the market. I have to leave now. Will you come with Santos for me?” Carla explained to her while she brushed her long blonde hair before the mirror and daydreamed at the same time.

- “Of course, Carla. Besides Boris will accompany me to Grandma birthday. He should be on his way.” Misako mentioned to her while passing her bath towel.

Carla left ten minutes later leaving Santos of the kitchen table savouring his favorite breakfast, Pancake.

Misako, the daughter of Carla’s sister, she died twenty years ago. She left Misako in her custody hoping she would get a good education. Carla of course often watched and said over her sister grave: “I accomplish everything you wanted for your daughter.” Carla and his sister became close and more than family after their father left them to die in a fire when their childhood. Misako now reached thirty years of age and she traveled in the middle road of her life. She had a career in law, she became a renowned lawyer. she has been working for a prestigious firm in Russian City and she had been living there with Carla ever since.

Santos who still heated in the kitchen heard a knock on the door and went to see who. He recognized the face of Boris. Boris became friend with Misako at the University and he became Misako’s fiancee five years later. Young, firm white man, about 7 feet tall, weighed 190 pounds, with muscles, and a great form.

- “Hi Santos, are you ok man?” He greeted the little one who smiled by seeing him.

- “Where is your sister?”

Boris has not finished the sentence when Misako appeared, came down the stairs. She shook her hair from right to left to adjust the misplace ones. Boris watched the beauty of Misako enlightened his morning again. Long, blonde hair, a round face with  a long smile, a curve body with a pretty round buttock in a tight jean. Misako covered her sleeveless shirt with a fine and thick blouse.

- “Good Morning honey.”

Misako received him with a kiss while Santos did the little kid smile.

- “You ready, today you are going to meet Grandma.”

- “I can’t wait.” Boris mentioned with a great smile while starting to put the dish in the car.

- “Carla will join us at home. She had some courses to do before going to Grandma house.”

- “Come Santos, we will be going now.”

- “Do not forget the gifts.”

- “Uncle, I need those tools. Can you pick them up for me?” Aria asked her uncle while decorating the cake for the party.

- “Honey, Can you take this dish to the car for me? Thanks.”

Aria, niece of uncle Abraham, had been the favorite of all who knew, know, and has known her. Since she had been able to understand, she became the most responsible for everything; Party, graduation, ceremony of all sorts. Aria joined her uncle after she escaped from her orphanage where her mother gave her in adoption. This day marked a great sadness for the orphanage because everyone knew who was Aria.

- “I am done with the cake. Be careful, Kenley.” Aria took off the kitchen robe and wiped her nose, eyes, and cleaned her hands.

- “Honey, you have to go take care of yourself.”

- “I know, give me ten minutes.”

She was not kidding when she only mentioned ten minutes. By the times the guys could finish their drink in the living room, Aria had her blue sky dress on, leaving her black hair floating, adjusting her tight red skirt, matching her long black trouse. She picked up the car key on the kitchen and checked for the bottle of wine.

- “You are as radiant as ever, my love.” Kenley commented while posing a charming kiss on her cheek.

- “Thanks. Uncle, you are ready to see Grandma again?”

- “I don’t know. She might not want to see me.”

- “Don’t worry, you will be fine.” Aria assured him with confidence with a smile of her mother as Uncle looked at her at that moment.

- “Kenley, it will be best if you drive.” Abraham suggested in looking at him suspiciously.

Kenley met Aria on the city where she has been living for the past fifteen years. They originally met on the public market of the city where Kenley father worked as Administrator Assistant and Kenley as Supervisor. Kenley was a black man with a little luck and a good brain. He knew he had to work hard, so he did what he had to survive. Slim but tall about 6.5 feet, weighed 185 pounds, and I had a degree in Management. Kenley had ambition and dream, but the closest he had, was about Aria. A surprise he prepared for Aria in her Grandma birthday.

    Misako arrived first with Boris and Santos at Grandma house. She took a good look at the house where she used to live before… the memories were cruel sometimes and terrifying for her. The accident did leave her with scars and pain in her legs and ribs. She could not shake that moment of her head most of times. The words she remembered well. “You take care of my little girl for me, sister.” Her eyes started to be red when Malus approached her slowly in front of the car.

- “Malus, where is Grandma? Is she awake yet? I want to greet her before everyone.” Misako asked Malus, the nurse lady who was taking care of Grandma for a while after her crisis.

- “She just woke up, she is preparing herself to come down.” Malus responded while showing her the stairs.

- “Malus, Help Boris please with the dish and the gifts.”

- “Of course Miss.”

Misako entered the house she grew up with her uncle when he was married to Carla. The waiting room have not changed specially with the flower decorating chair and table set. They remained like new as she touched them as a memory she could require by feeling the tissue under her fingers. The living room, and the Patio did not get much dust either. Beside there were more flowers and herbs on the patio, she thought of Grandma as she has always loved flowers and the garden.

- “Did you miss the house, my dear?” The voice said with a tendency to welcome Misako in her old mansion.

- “Grandma, oh, how I missed you.” Misako threw herself in grandma’s arm for a big hug for ages of absence.

- “Let me see you dear. You are more beautiful than I remember.”

- “I kind of grow up again, Grandma.”

- “Well, what are you doing here at this time?”

- “Nothing. Well, Carla is supposed to meet me here today. Isn't she here?” Misako asked looking at every direction hoping to see Carla. “She left early than me even though she had some courses to do.”

- “So my child, what did you do in this past twelve years?” Grandma asked while Misako was pouring some drinks to go to the living room.

Misako told her what had been and have been happening in the past twelve years. Memories, jokes, and tears came crashing down as they talked more about the past. Meanwhile malus helped Boris putting the dish in the kitchen.

- “Oh, I brought two people with me. Santos and my fiancee, Boris.”

- “Good Morning, Madam, I heard a lot about you. It is a joy to finally meet you.” Santos jumped to Grandma arms

- “You will excuse me, I just learned of your presence in my grand daughter life.”

- “I understand we will have plenty to talk about after I greet my children.” Grandma added while holding Santos in her arms for him to lie down on her.

- “Mother, are you here?” The voice was recognized by all the people in the living room starting with Santos who run into her arm to Grandma who was surprised of a visit from her own daughter, Carla.

    The swift sound of a car parked again in front of Grandma house with Aria, Kenley, and Uncle Abraham. Malus once again appeared to greet the most loved person by Grandma. She got down with her smile always brighter than ever. She hugged Malus with a strength of reconnaissance for everything she had done for her while she was living at this house.

- “I miss you sister, How are you doing?”

- “Same old, same old.”

- “Have you stolen the man yet?”

- “Which one?” Malus asked surprised by the question.

- “The one who will become your husband.” Aria mentioned between her smile to her. Malus gave her the eyes of what-do-you-think question. Aria smiled again. She entered the house leaving Malus helping uncle and Kenley with the rest of the dish. As Aria, she noticed the stairs mostly the third one where she sat when she first came here to live with her uncle and Carla. This moment was precious for her. This was the first time she was going to a proper family line from her
