Chapter 19: The Departure

"Em, Emman, Emmanuel"

I opened my eyes to see Stella's face watching over me, it was as if a guardian angel came to visit.

I thought.

"Wake up, it's time to leave"

I stared her blankly in the eye and rolled over, putting my back toward her.

"Wake up, it was your fault we have to go on this thing"

She whined on and on about it was me who accepted to go while trying to pull me off the bed. It wasn't as if i had a choice of going or not, it was more do I want job or no job.

"Fine, fine. I'm up ok"

She folded her arms and nodded in approval. And pointed at m empty suit case laing on the floor. 

"My love, what are you suggesting. I am, left that there for ou because you know how much you enjoy packing and organizing" 

I tried sweeting her up as packing was the last thing i wanted to do only to me met with silence and her slowl shaking her head toward me.

"Please"

"No"

She said walking away and leaving the room

"Maybe I should get a wife who cares for me more" I jokingly said under my breathe.

To surprisingly only be met with 'allets' the alter ego of the already strict woman standing infront me. 

"Wait, wait it was a joke, it was a joke"

"So you fell and hit your eye, and thats how you it got swollen?" Luna asked me whilst we stood infront their house waiting for Ralph to arrive with the van.

"Yep that's how it happen…" I tensly said right away while the real reason i had a swollen eye stood beside me smiling and talking to Mrs Cole.

"And who's that over there" Luna asked as she gestured toward Theo shyly hiding behind Stella and I, playing a game. I quickly moved, surprising him to fall toward Luna.

"Hi, what's your name?" I saw the confused and flustered look in his eyes as luna caught him in her arms and started talking to him.

"Oh your Stellas brother Emmanuel why didn't you just say that instead of making him fall." Both of them looking at me with fire in there eyes. 

"Ah, look theirs ralph" I quickly said as I saw the same look Stella had in Theo's eyes.

Mr Cole slammed open the door and excitedly jumped out the van. It was as if he was expecting a round of applause from everyone for getting everything in order.

"Alright, Everyone get in the van we'll arrive at the cabin in a few hours or so. I hope you ate before"
