In the kitchen, Brandon, wearing an apron, was frying eggs with focused attention. The hum of the orange juice machine filled the air as it squeezed fresh juice.
Maria walked in, a smile tugging at her lips. "Brandon Donovan, I'm making breakfast with you today."
Brandon nodded with a playful frown on his face. "Sure. You can make the spaghetti and ratatouille. Mine never quite tastes right."
Since his marriage, Brandon had spent his free time learning how to cook, explaining that "Nicolette works so hard in the army, I want her to eat well."
Though he didn't have a natural talent for cooking, he'd applied himself with determination, sticking to the simplest dishes. Over time, he'd become pretty good at making fried eggs, oatmeal, fresh orange juice, and mashed potatoes. The family had started calling him quite the dutiful husband.
Maybe the events of the night before had left Wesley and his wife shaken, because they hadn't come downstairs by midday. The rest of the family respected their space and kept to themselves.
Zayn, however, had been up since the crack of dawn. After his warm-up, he went for his usual run.
As he finished his first lap, he spotted Tina walking slowly along the track. She was holding Dolli in her left arm and pushing Bello, their elderly dog, in a stroller with her right.
Why the stroller? Because Bello, now in the late stages of cancer could barely walk. Tina took it upon herself to carry him in the stroller, taking him on daily walks around the villa or the neighborhood. Bello had only made it this far thanks to Athena, who had performed surgery to remove part of the dog's tumor. Without that, Bello would have passed away shortly after being adopted by the family. Walking the dog and petting the cat was one of Tina's favorite things to do. She loved it so much that she'd taken full responsibility for it. As she walked, she admired the flowers blooming along the path. Suddenly, she stopped and crouched down, gazing at a patch of flowers, lost in thought.
By the time Zayn finished his second lap, she was still crouching, mesmerized by something. Unable to resist, he stopped beside her and asked, "What are you looking at?"
Without lifting her gaze, Tina answered softly, her voice dreamy "Look at that rose and that gardenia. Even though they're so far apart-four or five meters, with all these obstacles between them-they're still close together, almost kissing. They must be in love." "What a romantic, beautiful love..." she whispered.
Zayn studied the flowers in silence for a moment. They were simply close by coincidence, but Tina had already spun a love story for them. He believed that it might be what a romance writer's imagination was like. He couldn't help but feel a bit drawn in by her sense of wonder.
of Tina's influence, he, too, found the image of those two flowers side by side oddly beautiful. And with the cats, the dogs, and a lively, charming girl beside him, he didn't want to leave. So he didn't. He knelt beside her, admiring
the sound of the dinner bell from the main house rang out that they snapped out of their reverie. One carrying the cat, the other pushing the dog, they walked back to the house together. 08:19 Mon, Dec
