THE GRAND PLAN

Suspense is hard! Even for me that's causing the suspense. So let's start with the grand plan. Signed Author

************

I took out my phone and recorded a video. I put on my most emotional face while holding Arian.

' Guys if you are watching this, I'm sorry. The truth is I gave birth a few months ago. During the period when our school was closed down for renovations. I have a son and his name is Arian. I am in Vegas now, I just want to raise my son , finish college and become something useful. Lucian I'm sorry, I lied about coming to your beach house and Riona you where upset with me because I told you not to visit me for a while. The truth is I wasn't ready to show my baby to the world. My house is your house, I'm sorry for asking you to leave. I might not be able to attend our graduation anniversary for a while. I will miss you guys. ' I say while dabbing my eyes with a hanky.

Uncle Tom immediately stopped recording and I thanked him.

I took out my SIM card and broke it. I have done my phase, next up Riona.

************

Meanwhile,

Sasha and Lucian had just finished a very passionate intercourse and were having steak when their phone tinged at the same time. They laughed at the coincidence.

Sasha looked at the video and frowned. ' I received a video message from Arianna' She says. ' So did I ' Lucian says.

They both watch the video and are in shock.

Sasha is pleased at the turn of events. Who's the sl*t now? She thought.

Lucian tightened his fists.

Sasha and Lucian had one common thought.

Who was the baby's father?

Lucian immediately dialled Arianna's number. It was not available.

' Sasha let's go to Arianna's house' Lucian says.

Sasha and Lucian immediately leaves.

**************

When Riona got Arianna's video message, she drove her car and waited at an inconspicuous spot near Arianna's house.

She waited till she saw Lucian's car park and then she drove in as well. She messed up her hair and came down looking as hurried up as best as she could.

' What is Arianna saying?' She asks.

' I'm as confused as you ' Sasha replied.

Ashley it's your turn now, Riona thought.

Just then Ashley came out with her hand bag and car keys.

' What are you all doing here?' Ashley asks.

' Miss Ashley we are here for Arianna ' Lucian replies. He wasn't very familiar with Ashley and all he knew was that she was Arianna's guardian, he also knew that she didn't have a good impression of him.

' She has gone to Vegas' Ashley replied blatantly.

' Why didn't you tell me? Why was I kept in the dark?' Riona says as tears stream down her face.

' You know I wouldn't intentionally hide something from you, Ari made me make her a promise. Come in let's talk.' Ashley says tenderly to Riona. Lucian and Sasha attempts to follow them but Ashley stops them.

' I don't welcome filth in my house. You won't step in.' Ashley says sternly. ' But why Ash? We are all worried about Arianna ' Riona says

' they know very well why I won't let them in. Are you coming or not?' Ash says. Riona follows her and she turns to Sasha and Lucian.

' You guys should apologize to Ashley for whatever you did to her. I'll call you guys later' Riona says as she enters the house.

Immediately they got as far as possible from the door, Riona and Ashley burst into laughter.

' Oh my Ashley, forget catering you should pursue a career in acting.' Riona says amidst laughter.

' Look at pot calling kettle black. Do you know how haggard you looked? Seriously is not to late to forget design. l will immediately arrange an audition for you, trust me. Let's call Arianna and tell her how things went.' Ashley says excitedly.

*************

Lucian's knuckles was white displaying all his veins. Sasha was afraid to infuriate him further by speaking so she remained silent. They both knew why Ashley disliked them and Sasha was happy Ashley disliked them. So Ashley won't let her sister have anything to do with Lucian.

*****Flashback*****

Lucian had a date with the math teacher's daughter. The stupid girl helped him change his grades from E to B and of course it led to their relationship. Tina thought that Lucian loved her and her alone so she helped change his grades, get f*cked and received fancy gifts from Lucian ( Sasha who pays for them but Lucian is the sender).

Unfortunately for him, their next date was at a pastry shop that Ashley normally supplies to.

When Ashley spotted him in the shop with Tina, she recognised him as Arianna's friend. She had asked who was the girl with him and of course he introduced her as his girlfriend.

But later that day he was passionately kissing Sasha by the roadside and Ashley happened to be driving by when she saw them.

Ashley tells Lucian that he should be ashamed of the fact that he was two-timing girls. She advises Sasha to leave Lucian.

However Sasha says that she is aware of all of Lucian's activities and that Ashley should mind her business. Ashley sneered and drove off. She told Arianna and Riona what she saw and the both of them replies that they didn't really care about Lucian's affairs after all they were just classmates and living in the same neighborhood made them friends.

But of course it mattered to Ashley and she kept giving Lucian and Sasha the stink eye each time she saw them.
