Gus responds to Robert, "Oh, not so long ago Robert, we were at your anniversary party, but this is good, we meet once again, and you are looking good."
"Thank you, Gus, my wife keeps me fit."
"Hear that honey, Paula keeps him fit."
Hearing Paula laugh, "You must try it sometime Risha, every morning Robert and I walk for an hour in the park.
Robert recently went for a physical and his report is fit as a fiddle."
"Thanks, honey, that is all because of you, hugging her, "Now the family is hungry from our long drive.
So let's go and sit with them and eat something, then we will mingle around. Gus, Risha will you excuse us."
Feeling the hand around him, turning, "Shawney, you look magnificent child,"
"Thanks, Uncle, you and Aunty look dashing yourself, but where are the others?"
"They are hungry love, so they already went to the table, we were going there now, will you join us?" "In a while Uncle," turning to Mr. and Mrs. Collins saying, "This is a surprise."
Paula holds Robert hand, noticing as Robert looks at her she squeeze his hand.
Knowing she was speaking her silent language, he just stood next to her and waited.
Hearing when the Collings said, "Yes, we were surprised to see you here also Shawney."
"I am sure you have already heard that Mr. Mac Carty invited me, and when I was at the hospital, I met Torren, and he extended an invitation to me, but I will be returning on the road very soon."
"Train was saying to us that you and Paula are related."
"That is true, Aunty Paula is my Dad's sister, I came for their anniversary party."
"We were there but we didn't see you."
When Paula intervene in the conversation saying, "Well, we did have a nice turn-out Mr. Collin, and thanks for the gift, but I didn't know you knew my niece."
"Paula, on our tour we met many people, your niece was one of them, she was with some church people, driving their church bus."
"My niece has many talents and full of surprises, just look how beautiful she looks tonight."
"I notice Torren seems to be lost in her beauty." Mr. Colling replies.
"I supposed so, but then you know him better than I, I only met him a few day. And Gus he may be interested, but my niece is not interested, in a few days she will be moving along."
When Mitch, Nellie, and Joseph enter the hall, "You know Mitch, the house doesn't look so big outside, but this is a mansion." Joseph whisper to Mitch.
"I thought the same, it the first time I am seeing the inside."
Shaking Mr. Mac Carty's hand, "Sir, this mansion is beautiful." Joseph said to Train.
"Thank, you Doctor, I am so glad you came, before you leave I will like to have a little chat with you, so mingle around please, and feel free to partake in the meals."
"Isn't there any program?"
"No, Torren just wanted to have a dinner, so I decided to invite a few friends."
"I see you are expecting grand soon?"
"Yes, my two children are pregnant."
"But I thought they were your daughter-in-law?"
"Yes they are, but my children are not always around, and those two spend all their spare time with me when they are not working." Seeing Carl signal his Dad to come. Hearing Train said, "Now you all relax and enjoy your evening," as he walk across to Carl.
When Mitch heard Joseph said, "Wow!"
He turns around to see what he saw, "What is it, Joseph?"
"Who is she?" Joseph ask.
"Do you want to meet her?" Mitch ask, kniw it was Shawney because he had layed out the dress on her bed which Torren brought before they return from the beach.
"Yes, please, is she a model or movie star?"
Mitch chuckled, walking towards her but then Carl stops us.
"Aye, it is nice to see you Mitch."
"Same here Carl, and have you met Joseph?"
"Why do that name sound so familiar?" "Carl, Joseph is Torren Doctor." As Mitch introduces them.
"Yes, that's it, good to finally meet you, Doctor. I must thank you so much, Torren is much better."
"Don't thank me, it is Shawney, she is always praying and reading the bible with him, by the way, where is she?"
"She was here a few minutes before I spoke with you."
Mitch, noticing his cousins eating, thinking, 'Thank God, hearing them complaining from the time they reach home from the beach.
They clean out whatever leftovers that were in the fridge.
I only hope they don't embarrass themselves and Aunty better behave herself. I heard Uncle Ken warning her before we leave.
I am afraid the way she was angry she might make a show like when we had our dinner.
Lord, please help her to contain her bad habit, I wish she wasn't so stubborn.'
Touching Joseph shoulder, "Here she comes." Seeing him covering his mouth, Shawney smile as Mitch hunches him and was laughing.
"What is the joke, Mitch?" Shawney ask.
"Our Doctor had just fallen in love with you."
Seeing her reach out and touch his heart and started laughing, "Are you going to need me, to call a Doctor, Doctor?"
Pondering at that moment, 'Why did I have to tell Torren that Shawney was a good person to get involved with?
Was I so blind that I couldn't see her beauty until now, God, she looks amazing.'
"Joseph are you alright?" Shawney calls out to him.
"My friend, you have dazzle my eyes, and to top it off you laugh at me, but you look stunning."
Noticing how she smiles when she holds his hand and swirls around then she bows saying, "Thank you."
"Shawney can we talk?"
Responding to Mitch, "Not now Mitch but a little later." Walking away when the Collins stop her.
"Shawney, we didn't properly introduce ourselves." Mr. Collins said.
"I don't quite understand what you are saying Mr. Collin's."
"Shawney, we are Dalia parents."
"I see, well good to know that, I hope you know you have two wonderful grandchildren, those two are the sweetest."
"Shawney does the children play with you?" Mrs. Collins ask.
"Yes, of course, don't they come to you, well never mind, when you come often they will know you. Good seeing you and enjoy yourselves."
Smiling seeing Dalia's parents speaking with her, 'I hope they put a stop to this so call relationship between her and Torren.' Jeff thought,
"Are you happy about something Jeff?" Carl asks, looking at the wicked smile.
"I was just thinking the party is going exceptionally well, but I was wondering, who were those people that now get off the table?"
"They are Shawney family."
"Dad invited her family, but why? We only met her for the Valantine weekend."
"Well Jeff, Dad invited Robert and she and Robert are family. So dad extended the invitation to his family so they all came."
Hearing Jeff mumbling, "I can't believe Shawney and Robert is family?"
