Chapter 83

Romeo

Jennifer and I had a plan we will go to her dad tonight and find out what he wants to tell us but first I need to talk to her about the wedding. “Jenn did the wedding planner contact you?” “Yes, thank you Romeo she was here, we decided on where the ceremony will be and the reception, she’s even going to bring in portable bathrooms that are elegant, the only people that will be in and out of the house will be the caterers but they will only use the kitchen.” “And are you happy with her arrangements?” “Yes, it’s just going to be a problem to get me a dress I like.” “Why?” “It’s just to short notice Romeo.” “Let me make a few calls you work out what you want and I’ll make it happen okay?” “I can’t let you do that Romeo.” “Yes, you can and you will we are not going to fight about that.” “Okay okay but I can’t tell you how the dress is going to look like that will be bad luck.” “I don’t want you to tell me, you just need to know what you want if someone phones you.” “Got it.” “Anything else about the wedding you need a hand with?” “No not really I decided on a soft pink and cream if that is okay with you.” “No problem with that.” “The cake, I was thinking we can have cupcakes it will be arranged like a wedding cake.” “I’m good with that to. Invitations?” “Shit I haven’t thought about that. And when I told Caroline the wedding planner, I didn’t have a dress yet she freaked out and we didn’t get to that part yet.” “What about you and me go to a graphic designer tomorrow and sort that out I mean it is Saturday and everyone knows about us, which means we don’t have to hide anymore.” “That would be great thank you Romeo. And now I probable need to get dress to go to my dad.” “Yes probable.” “You know what would be a better plan for the night?” She asked me “No?” “Going to the club.” “Oh, dear my babe hasn’t had enough yet.” “I will never get enough of you Sir.” She winked at me as she walked out of my office. I would have grabbed her and kissed her senseless if she wasn’t so far out of reach.

Jennifer

When I walked out of Romeo’s office, I could see his eyes was telling me he wanted me just as badly but no my father dear has something up his sleeve and we need to go and meet with him I know we are going to catch him off guard and I was also very sure of the fact that his going to be very upset with us just rocking up at his house. I mean my dad likes schedules and he told Romeo he wants to speak to us on Sunday us rocking up at his house on a Friday night might upset his whole weekend but he is dictating my whole life so I’m just getting him back for that.

I got into the room and found something to wear after everything that happened with the business and the wedding planner, I haven’t had time to go to my place yet which means I have to do with what I’ve got. I pulled out a pair of jeans with a nice top and a blazer with it and high heels sandals. I did my make up to make sure the bruises is hidden and then I put some of my favorite perfume on something I spoil myself with every now and then Dolce & Gabbana The Only I love the smell of it. If I’m going to hear my faith I might as well look good and smell good. When I got back into the room, I saw the folder which had my business plan in I worked on it a bit and the space I wanted that was on the strip was just out of reach I don’t want to tell Romeo about it because I know he will change the rent to suit me and that is not how I do business. But that was a prime spot, maybe I’ll bring it up over the weekend.

When I walked down the stairs Romeo was busy on his phone in the foyer waiting for me. When he heard me, he turned around and just looked at me as I came down the stairs. “You look beautiful darling.” “I’m wearing jeans Romeo.” “You still look beautiful.” “Thank you.” When I reached the last step, he pulled me to him for a hug and a kiss. “No matter what your father say tonight we stand together we won’t let him win if it’s something I did that he has against me, we will sort it out at home if it’s something we don’t agree about don’t explode in front of him Jenn he wants that he wants to make problems for us and we are not going to let him. You and me will talk at home right here when we come back okay.” “I’m going to try my best Romeo.” “That’s all I can ask for. You ready?” “As ready as I’ll ever be.”

On our way to my fathers house the SUV was quiet both of us thinking what my father can be up to. Not one of us wanted to take a guess but in the back of my head I think I know what his going to say and I know Romeo won’t be happy with it what I don’t know is how his going to react. But let’s hope I’m wrong because I’ve been praying over and over in my head that what I think, is not what it’s going to be.

When we drove towards the house all the lights were basically on which was strange for my dad especially for a Friday night. Friday nights is the time he drinks something and just do nothing but clearly, he was up to something tonight. We stopped and Lucas opened the door for me, when I reached Romeo, he took my hand and gave it a little squeeze, then he kissed me. Before we could even knock on the door Peter open it. “Jennifer what a surprise?” Peter said clearly very surprised. “Hi Peter is my dad home?” “Yes, but he has company.” “Who is it, Peter?” I heard my dad yelling from the other room. “It’s Miss Jenn and her fiancé.” Peter yelled back “Well let them come in.” My dad yelled again but I could hear he was irritated. Romeo looked at me and I at him as Peter led the way to the dinning room. When we entered the dining room both Romeo and I couldn’t believe our eyes Francesca was having dinner with my dad. The first words out of Romeo’s mouth were “Didn’t I tell you to get out of town tonight?”
