7 Sister of my mother

"Dani, Ella is here!"

Dan was pleasantly surprised to hear that his busy aunt Eleanor is here to celebrate for his birthday. She was his favourite out of the two siblings that his mother Catherine have.

Probably because Uncle Joey is an 'inspired artist'.

Although Dan keeps evaluating Joey as not 'successful' , he knows in his heart that Joey is a good man, an obedient son and a cheerful sibling but moreover, an inspiring uncle.

Dan as a nephew doesn't want to be like his uncle but he admires the man for his patience and how hard he works for his dream. Unfortunately, not many people would admire such quality.

Most would rather live 'smart' than live a hard life. They would rather choose a job that pays well rather than what make them happy. Who could blame them though? It's not their fault that 'the world revolves around money'.

[Huddleston House]

A 1984 BMW 733i was parked in front of the house beside the Cooper's. A young teenager who looks like she's in her 20s came out of the car.

Unlike average girls, her eyes were sharp. The eyes that should not belong to an 18 years old who just got her driver's license just a week ago.

Eleanor locked the door and looked at the entrance where she sees her 6 years old nephew and sister smiling at her.

She ran towards Daniel and hugged him tightly.

"Happy birthday Dani! I'm so happy I could come for your special day!"

Hearing her, Dan's smile on his face got even wider but as soon as he releases her from the hug, his face turns into a frown.

"You didn't need to do that. I heard you have exams coming up. You shouldn't have waste your time coming here. My birthday comes annually. Your exams don't."

Seeing her six years old nephew acting like her dad, Eleanor was speechless.

"Did pops teach you to say that?! "

"No?..." Daniel's eyes wondered around not looking straight at her. Seeing this, she holds Dan's head like a burger and looks straight into his eyes and said:

"Dani, nothing is more important than family, okay? No matter what you do, stop it if that thing makes your loved one sad. We all have only one life. Have a happy one. I was once in this... "

Hearing his 18 years old aunt start preaching, Daniel just keep nodding...

' I'm probably going to live a couple more lives but still... Go on, aunt. Preach me til I'm dead.'

Catherine beside the two could only stare in sweat as her sister continues to preach while her son keeps nodding while his hands behind his back.

'I knew it was a good idea to have a seperate house...'

"Ella, I think Dani already understood what you're trying to say! Let's go inside!"

She took her sister's hand and pulled her inside the house despite feeling the reluctance from Eleanor's hand.

Daniel sighed seeing how his beloved saved him from 'at least half an hour speech'.

Although he loves his aunt. She's still crazy always talking about family this, family that.

' I wonder if she's related to that person...'

He suddenly shakes his head. How would that even possible?
