chapter 3

THE NEXT MORNING Cerion wakes up to the hustle bustle he hears from the living room, mom was playing with hibiscus while betty his housekeeper was setting up breakfast. "good morning young master" betty smiled his way, "egg, toast and avocados as usual? "

" Good morning to you as well and yes" Cerion threw a grin in her direction as he toke his warm water to the living room, "good morning ,are you done eating ?"

"well morning to you and no, well I've to take hibiscus and mello to get fitted AND you have to get fitted, which your lazy ass should have done ages ago" 

Roses' engagement ceremony was in 15 days everything was to be perfect including the pets outfits, which Cerion kept forgetting all the time but one couldn't blame him he was after all on the verge of completing his new novel and always had terrible writers' block when finishing his novels due to which he would go into semi seclusion wherein he would not use social media at all and would only go out only for emergencies. 

Well, this could be considered a emergency now that the date was coming near and rose had terrible dead line anxiety, wherein she became more and more irritable and Cerion was not keen on spending a day at the hospital after getting punched in the jaw, again.

" yes mom, ill complete all the engagement related stuff today" he grunted this was not going to be fun day for him. 

After finishing breakfast maya drove to their family home. Where they were greeted by Julian. 

"Hey mom I'm taking Mello to get fitted" he grinned at maya's direction. 

"Good, take Cerion and hibiscus with you then" maya said moving towards the staircase leading to the second floor. 

"Yes mom!!!" he said his face lighting up with agreement and then he turned towards his dearest younger brother. 

Cerion looks awkwardly at his brother. Hoping to disappear into the ground.

"Hi Julian" he said meekly looking at his brother's face which was giving him a death glare.

"Why weren't you picking up my calls?" Julian smiled but his voice was cold.

His cold eyes pierced through Cerion's soul but how could he tell his overprotective stupid brother that he's an adult who can take care of himself but sometimes being alone feels too lonely and his calls make ceri feel good. 

"hahahha what are you saying pffft how could i ignore my dear brothers calls" Cerion said laughing awkwardly whilst averting his eyes, "oooooo shall we get a couples outfit for mello and little hibiscus?" he said trying to change the topic. Ceri clutched hibiscus' carrier bag to his chest and started speed walking towards the garage and stood close his brother's Bentley Bentayga.
