The girls got to the airport early the following morning, they had booked their flights yester night.
They walked out of the Terminal in the airport in their designated destination, Illinois. Gisela suddenly stop short at the entrance gasping. Her face beaming with excitement.
"It's snowing here!" she exclaimed
"Gisela, let's not make fun of ourselves here pls" Ari said looking bored. Though Camille looked cool, just beneath the surface she's trying not to burst with excitement
"Okay" Gisela replied, bobbing her head with much enthusiasm
"Okay, let's go and meet our ride" Ari said leading the girls
Halfway there, Gisela stopped again, her mouth forming a perfect o
"What is it again?" Ari stomped her feet over to Gisela
"You didn't tell me I'll meet cute boys here" Gisela replied with a dreamy look
"Oh no" Ari groaned
"I think am falling in love”
“That’s what you say every time you meet a guy” Ari snapped “And gets your feet to start walking o if you don't want me to leave you here Gisela"
"Hey, wait for me; you know I can't run with this heel. What will people think of me" she shouted
Ari only shook her head and walked faster.
They got to car with Gisela out of breath. Ari opened the car and they all got in after putting her luggage in the booth. Their chauffeur drove out of the airport to Ari's home
"Gisela doesn't sound romantic when you say it" Gisela turned to Ari " so maybe you should just call me something short like maybe Gi or Sela or La or Ela or Gis or could just call me Marie, that's my second name, whaddya think?"
"I think you should keep shut and let's enjoy our ride home in perfect silence"
Gisela sat back on the seat, pouting her lips
Minutes later, she leaned towards the driver, "I think am falling in love with you, you're so cute"
"I think you should fall out of love with me because I can't imagine myself falling for someone like you. just thinking about it gives me goose bumps" he replied
"What’s wrong with me?" Gisela asked frowning
"You’re loudmouthed" he answered
Ari snickered quietly and Cam chuckled softly
"you're cruel and mean" Gisela said tears brimming at her eyes" but I won't let you ruin my Christmas for me, after all this will be the last time I'll see you"
"We're here” he said and got down ignoring Gisela
They all got down and ran to the porch, not wanting to stay any longer than necessary in the chilling weather
"Why's the driver following us?" Gisela asked Ari
"That's because he's my brother" she replied as the front door opened to reveal her parents.
"Hey mum" Ari grinned as her mum pulled her into a warm embrace
"Ari!!!!!!" Chris shouted and ran to hug her
"I've missed you so much sis"
"And Dad?" Ari asked turning to her father who was by the fireplace reading a novel
"Welcome back home dear, it's good to have you hear" he replied and continued reading his novel.
“Where are your friends?" he looked up to ask
"Good afternoon Mr. Walter" they both chorused
"Oh hey girls, sorry I didn't see you there, Welcome to Chicago"
"Thank you sir" they're replied
"Mum, we would be in my room" Ari called out and went to her room with the girls trailing behind her
"Are you Royals or what" Gisela asked
"No why?"
"Your room is five times bigger than mine"
"And three times bigger than mine" Cam butt in
"Let's just rest, when the Snow has reduced, we'll have to go get our luggage" Ari said
"Is the driver truly your brother?" Cam asked
"Yes, his name is James"
"Nice, he's beautiful" Cam said, ignoring the look Gisela is giving her
Ari's snore was the only response she got, so they decided to sleep too since they were all jet lagged.
Ari
When I woke up to the aroma of mum baking cookies, those are my favorite
I saw the girls sprawled out on the bed asleep.
" Thank God, Gisela finally decide to sleep" I muttered as I stood up to go to the driveway to retrieve our luggage.
"Mum , I want to retrieve our luggage from the car" I said to mum as I opened the front door
"James go and assist her" I heard mummy order
I giggled to myself, knowing he'll be grumbling before coming
"James!! If you don't go now, you wouldn't eat this night" I heard her shout
"You still look beautiful" I heard and froze misstep.
That voice could only belong to.............
