"Is this the way you greet your father young lady!" Matthew asked raising his voice angrily.
"Does it even matter Dad! You invited my Ex-Husband here for christ sakes while am staying here. Did you think I would be okay with Anthony being here?" Alayna shouted pissed off.
"Your going to have manners for me in my own house, not because your grown doesn't mean that I can't still give you a ass whipping. Why does it bother to you so much that Anthony is here, you two are divorced so I dont see why he can't stay for the Christmas or do you still have feelings for him? Matthew asked in amusement.
"No...I.... do.... not...why would you assume something like that. Am sorry for raising my voice at you okay. Am just surprised that you would do something like this," Alayna stuttered.
"You know you've always been a bad liar right? But dont try that tone with me again because you know I like to teach lessons..
"Mr Smith, you know I can always leave right? I dont want to cause no trouble and you know that," Anthony said in a deep husky voice.
"I think you should stay Anthony," David spoke up surprising everyone.
"He is right you should stay, you and my sister aren't dating but that's between the both of you guys it's none of our business. And if you both are divorced then it shouldn't ge a problem unless you aren't over Anthony as yet," Georgia said with a smirk.
"That's true, I mean what do you have to lose Alayna," Jennifer asked in amusement.
"You guys are not being serious right now, no one is really not taking my side on this not even you mom?" Alayna exaggerated.
"Don't get me involved, you didn't even answer the question . Do you still have feelings for Anthony?" Rachel asked Alyana with a smirk plastered on her self.
"No I do not,"Alyana said through gritted teeth.
"Then prove it then," Matthew said enjoying where the conversation was going.
"How am I suppose to do that?" Alayna asked curiously.
"You and Anthony have to stay in a room together and you guys have to participate in all the activities that I have planned out for the all of us this Holiday," Matthew said with a pleasant smile as his plan was working.
"Really Dad," Alayna asked in disbelief.
"So you do love Anthony then," Matthew asked interested in knowing his daughters response.
"Yeah, do you still love me," Anthony spoke up for the second time making everyone in the room gasp in surprise.
"Fine, I'll sleep in the same room with Anthony, unless he sleeps on a separate bed," Alayna said with a frown.
"Where's the fun in that," Vanessa asked with a innocent grin on her face.
"Yea, where's the fun in that didnt you say you're over me, so what are you afraid of? We can sleep in separate sheet if that's what you want and you know dam well that I wont lay my hands on you," Anthony said confidently.
"you all win okay, am going to take a shower cause am sleepy and tired in one right now," Alyana said before climbing the stairs.
Matthew POV
Step 2 is now completed, I know my daughter can be rude when she wants to be but the truth is she has her mother's personality. But what is important to me is the fact that Alayna and Anthony still love each other and deep down you know it as well.
End Of Matthew's POV
Anthony's POV
I have a feeling that something huge is going to happen this Christmas and I can't wait to find out what.
After the awkward conversation with the Smith's family, Alayna and I ended up staying in a room that Matthew personally choosed right in his house rather than his ware house.
End Of Anthony POV
"You better not touch my things Matthew, I know you like snopping but if you try that with me, I'll chop your fingers off," Alayna said as she unpack her suitcase.
"You need to calm yourself down and relax alright, I won't touch your things so you don't need to worry about me snopping around your stuff. which side of the bed do you want," Matthew asked as he texted his friends on his phone.
"I want the right side, did you forget that I like looking at the sun when it rise in the morning and when it goes down at nights? Can you past me that red cozy sheet am going to take a nap," Alayna said softly.
"I do remember, here,"Anthony said as he handed the sheet to Alayna.
"Thanks, look am sorry for talking about you like that infront of my family I just hate surprises," Alayna said with a sigh.
"Its fine I understand, anyways am heading to the store. Do you want me to bring you anything?'' Anthony ask sincerely.
"Just bring me 3 x-bar and straw berry and mint gums," Alayna spoke back up saying softly.
"Okay then, I'll be back in about half an hour or later but do have a good nap," Anthony said as he walk towards the open door.
"You better not tell my family about this," Alayna said seriously.
"You got it," Anthony said as he walked out the door.
Alayna's Dream
"Alayna you know that you still love your ex-husband so why are you lying to yourself?" a unknown woman in a white gown asked annoyed.
"Why does everyone keeps saying that I love Anthony and why is everyone acting as if I'm the bad guy," Alayna asked curiously.
"Its because you do Alayna, why is it so hard for you to see," the unknown woman said as she faced Alayna.
"Who are you?" Alayna asked confused.
"That's a secret, but if you stop being so clumsy then I'll tell you," the white woman said with a smirk.
