Chapter 4 Secret Or Not
Evelyn
"Evelyn, get the hell out of the pool....you'll catch a cold!" Dad's voice echoed across the poolside, but I chose to ignore his yell and swam to the other side, determined to enjoy the water.
"I am not a kid, Dad!" I shouted back, my voice laced with defiance as I leaned against the edge of the pool. "Go and get some rest!"
The party had ended an hour ago, and the once lively poolside had now emptied, revealing the vastness of the mansion Dad owned. It was nothing short of a palace, capable of accommodating over a hundred people, though there weren't nearly as many guests invited. But I had a feeling the wedding day would be an exception.
"Evelyn, I said get out right now!" Dad ordered but once again, I paid no attention to his words.
At that moment, there were only four of us left by the poolside: Clara, who was struggling to suppress her laughter; Dad, who was determined to spoil my swim; me, defiantly sticking to my decision; and Jacob, silently observing the entire spectacle from one of the plush chaise lounges scattered around the area.
"Grow up, Dad," I didn't know why I loved getting on Dad's nerves, "Let me enjoy my swim."
As expected I could see Dad's face turning different colours and he yelled again, "What did you just say? You are me telling you to do what?"
"Grow up, Dad," I repeated and Clara burst into a fit of laughter. Even Jacob couldn't hide his amusement, attempting to stifle his own laughter behind his hand.
"Evelyn Fernandez, get the hell out of that pool right now!" Dad barked,
"Samuel, let her enjoy herself," Clara interjected, coming to my defence as Dad and I competed in the mini glaring contest," She just started swimming a few minutes ago."
Dad's glare remained fixed on me, "She has a tendency to catch a cold easily, Clara. She shouldn't be so careless."
"Dad, the water is very warm. You can check it if you want," I chimed in.
His glare faded, replaced by a frown of contemplation.
