Last time, we arrived in Arinna, Gula.
Aoi's old friend, Ayaz Sydin who invited us to his home.
We reached his home, a little boy rushed outside.
Mommy, daddy is back! Cairo yelled.
Cairo, stop yelling in the night. Samara replied.
As we all gotten out the van. There was a tense feeling.
Aoi. Samara replied. Samara. Aoi replied. What is your relationship? Saffron asked. Aoi, Ayaz and I were on a team together many years ago. Samara replied. Did you work at that inn? I asked. Yes. Aoi and Ayaz were greeters. I was a hostess. Samara replied.
Aoi pat Ayaz on the shoulder.
He shook his head.
Come in. I will show you where you are staying. Samara replied.
As she was showing us where we were sleeping. Samara smiled. Oh, would you boys like to sleep in Cairo's room? Samara asked. That is actually good. Saffron replied. Let's go to my room. Cairo replied. Go ahead, Armani and Tomoe. I replied. This is actually good. Cairo doesn't have many kids around his age. Samara replied. This is great. Armani and Tomoe have found a new friend. Saffron replied. Saffron smiles. After you all drop your things. We have dinner ready. Samara replied. Thank you, Samara. I can't believe you finally took being a hostess would come in handy. Aoi replied. Oh Aoi, do you remember what happened the last time? Samara asked. Hey Samara, I'm playing with you. You almost killed me last time. Aoi replied. Haru, what did you do to Samara? Saffron replied. Where are my manners? My name is Samara. Samara replied. Do you and Ayaz still do jobs from the inn? Aoi asked. Yes. I may be a stay-at-home mom, but I still got it. Samara replied. Other than that, let's eat. Ayaz replied.
As we hit the kitchen, I smelled the Cajun spices in the air.
What did you make? It smells so good. Saffron replied. I made what you would call One pot Jerk Chicken and Rice. Samara replied. I am so ready to eat. I replied. You love Cajun food? Samara asked. Yes. The last time was in New Orleans during the Essence Fest. I replied. When did you go? Saffron asked. Ren didn't want you to go. It gets a little crazy every once in a while, but not last year. I replied. You should accompany us on one of our girl's trip. I replied. That's great, but I have to find a babysitter. Saffron replied. I'll babysit him if I am available. Aoi replied. That's sweet of you, Aoi. Ayaz replied. You must be one of his sisters. Samara replied. Yes, I'm actually his twin sister, Keon. Saffron replied. I can see the resemblance. Ayaz replied.
As everyone ate their food.
I was still thinking it was unreal that I would end up in Arinna for a weekend.
Aoi seems at ease with old friends of his.
I hope he keeps that smile as long as he can.
That night, Samara told Saffron and I share a room.
The boys rushed to Kairo's room and went to go to bed.
Oh Aoi, you can sleep in this room. Samara replied. Come on Samara. Ayaz replied. You know how Samara is? Aoi asked.
Samara looked at Aoi.
He knows I can sense his carnal desires preying on Kaoru. Samara thought.
What happen next?
Stay Tuned.
