After an hour, he came back to the mansion just to find that she wasn't there. Ethan was working on his study room, Enzo was sleeping and Janine was preparing grandly. Like it's not someone's death anniversary. He didn't clearly know what happened but the only thing he knew was Janine was one of the person who hurt Sabrina and he won't let her go easily.
"Where's Sabrina?" He asked the butler.
"Miss always left without notifying anyone." The old butler said. He pulled out his phone and call her. She didn't answer and he texted her. In few seconds she replied.
Wifey: Meeting with my gang.
He chuckled. It sounded like a joke but he knew that it wasn't just a simple gang. He had a feeling on it. He was calculative as well but he never said a thing. He had his perspective and other things in mind. He'll be there to let her use him anytime she's in need.
Hubby: I settled everything, my wife. You can calm down now.
She probably felt bad at that moment. He can feel it. He knew that she wasn't okay and it will be hard for her to be okay.
Hubby: I'll wait for you on your room.
Wifey: That house doesn't feel like home.
Hubby: Please endure a little more, wife. Then we can go home.
He waited for her on her bed and eventually fell asleep while reading some documents. He's been restless because of the multiple problem in the company. He shouldered it all. But only few of the managers and directors had managed to solve a problem before reporting it to him. He'll give them a raise if they keep doing their job.
He felt a warm, familiar body hugged him in bed. He wrapped his arms around her and kisses her top head. He let her shove her face on his chest, not showing her face to him. She feel down mixed with hatred. He caress her hair.
"Sleep darling. It will be a long night later."
"Hmm." He like hearing her hum. Even though she doesn't want to speak.
"Do you want me to sing you a song?" She lifted her face and it seemed like she's been crying. Her eyes are a little puffy. He reach it and kisses both of her eyelids.
"Not sure if you know this,
But when we first met,
I got so nervous…
I couldn't speak…" He sang and keep singing. His voice was so manly, seductive and it makes her heart flutter. "In that very moment I found the one and my life had found its missing piece…" he kisses her forehead.
"So as long as I live I love you
Will heaven hold you
You look so beautiful in white
And from now till
My very last breathe
This day I cherish
You look so beautiful in white." He keep singing softly as she listen to him with eyes full of emotions. She bite his arm but he didn't flinch and kept singing. He check on her and saw that she's already asleep. "Sleep well, because you are loved."
Enzo was sitting on his window seat as he watched the video he made, a compilations of photos and videos that they took when they were kids, where their mother happily baked cookies for them and where they are planting flowers in the garden. Those days were memories easily forgotten but for the three of them… those memories are their treasure.
He's wearing a black suit. A formal attire for the dead. An embroidery of their mother's favorite kind of butterfly. Every year, they wear the same color with an embroidery that resembles their mother.
"Brina! Snake!" Enzo threw a fake rubber snake to Sabrina, she scream around and went to their mother.
"Mooom!" She hide at their mother's back. "Enzo just throw me a snake."
Enzo has been laughing out loud on those days. It was their 14th Birthday. Their mother frowned at him while putting a hand on her hips.
"Why do you have to scare your sister like that?"
"Because it's fun." He said mischievously. Ethan came with a box and gave it to him. He took it and excitedly open it. He scream out loud when he saw a tarantula in it. Ethan pranks him back.
He chuckled as he watch those moments. Ethan was biased when it comes to their sister. Though both of them did a lot of pranks to their baby sister. Outside, a music started playing. It was the usual formal music and he glance down on the lawn to see guests arriving. Relatives from their mother side came wearing black clothes like it was a funeral. He grins. They surely know how to get along with the plan.
He closes his laptop and strode downstairs with it. Sabrina was wearing an elegant black dress with embroidery of flower and butterflies at the hem of her dress. She was a real phoenix and the way she stand and move was graceful yet fierce.
Their step-mother even hire a host for their birthday to make it more lively and fun. Ethan stepped out with Aria. He started telling her not to accept drinks from anyone but him including what she should eat or not.
The event manager tells them they are going to step out once they are called. Enzo thumbs up with a smile but after the event manager turns back, his face darkens. He hold Sabrina's hand and Ethan let go of Aria as he holds on to Sabrina's other hand. Their moods at that moment was scary and dark, and no one wants to move closer to them.
Aria felt their scary presence yet she didn't shudder. She felt a strong presence of protection from them. They weren't scary but for others, they are. And their revenge has just started.
They got out immediately the host called them, their face was emotionless. As the guests admires them they felt that something was odd from the three. On their mother side relatives wearing black were at the corner, sipping on the red wine. Most of them were from military and in the government.
"What's this?" Guests that is mostly invited by Janine and Marga started murmuring.
"It looks like a death anniversary than a birthday party."
"Don't you know, it is their mother's death anniversary as well."
Enzo took the microphone.
"Thank you for coming everyone. The truth is, we are planning to mourn on this day for our mother's death anniversary, but our step-mom generously prepare a grand party for us so we don't want to waste it. Thank you, step-mother." He said without a sound of bitterness but the sarcasm behind it was a puzzle to everyone.
"Please enjoy the party, I and my siblings prepare an intermission that is also dedicated to our girlfriend slash fiancé."
Ashley was there and she wave to him. Enzo glance and nod at her direction in search of his girlfriend. The real girlfriend. Ashley has been buzzing around that she's Enzo's girlfriend. She was supposed to seduce Ethan but it was hard for her. But when she'll have both of them on her palms, she could do whatever and have whatever she want.
The most important part was not to fill their bellies with delicious food but the 5 inches from the belly button.
