Chapter 141: The Surprise Party
“What time is the party tomorrow? And what time do you intend to show up and surprise him?” Alex asked, trying to stay awake.
The triplets' party had been fun but the preparation had been draining. Alex couldn't help her tiredness but Gigi need her so she had to stay awake.
“The surprise party is at 2 pm. He would take the twins out for shopping while his friends help with the setup.
So I'm thinking of showing up by 3 pm there about. That way the twins would get their surprise without me making it about me and Allan.
They wouldn't be expecting me, and by that time, the whole enthusiasm would have died down a bit, then I show up and surprise them also.” Golden recounted the plan in her head.
“That's a wonderful plan Gigi and I don't see any problem. I wish I could go with you but I can't.
I promised dad that I would help babysit the triplets while he, Rosa, and Nana go out for some air.”
“It's fine that you can't come, but how are you going to cope with the kids?” Golden asked concerned.
She had only been with them for a few hours but those kids were a lot to handle.
“Oh I'm not doing it alone. I'm dragging Fab and Varney along. We would each be responsible for a kid.”
“Let me guess, you get Neo, Fab gets Leo, and Varney gets Chloe.” Golden said, diciphering what her friend planned to do.
“Exactly. You know me too well. Now can we please go to sleep? Tomorrow is going to be a really long day.” Alex said yawning and lying back down to sleep.
Golden laid back down and used the remote control to dim the lights. She tried to put the party out of her mind and get a good night rest.
She couldn't afford to look sleep deprived by the time she meets up with Allan.
Golden didn't realize it, but she overslept. Maybe it was because she hadn't had any proper rest since she got off the plane yesterday.
She slept till it was 11 am. Hunger was what woke her up, and after brushing her teeth, she went down for brunch.
“Good morning sleepy head. I thought you wouldn't wake up till we were gone.” Alex said in-between bites of food.
Golden smiled and went to hug Varney and Fab and stole a piece of bacon from Alex's plate.
“V, have you ever babysat before? The triplets from the few hours I stayed with them are a handful. You sure you can cope?” Golden asked her brother.
“Well I haven't. In fact, I'm looking forward to it. It would be a nice practice for when we start having kids.
And seeing that our kids would be part Chen, part Nixon, the triplets are the perfect models to practice with.” Varney responded lovingly.
“Uhhhhh! That's the loveliest thing anyone has ever said to me. I can guarantee that our kids would certainly be a handful.” Alex said as she leaned over and kissed Varney on the lips.
“Umm, hello, some of us are trying to eat here. Please stop assaulting our eyes.” Fab said.
“Deal with it man. You are in our space.” Varney said with a smirk and kissed Alex deeply again.
“Okay I give up. I'm done. I'm going to the living room to go call my girlfriend. Let me know when you guys are ready to leave.” Fab said, standing up and leaving the dining room.
Golden smiled and shook her head. She missed this. She wished her break could be longer.
It was almost time to head out. Golden contemplated on what to wear. She had lost a significant amount of weight, and most of the things in her closet didn't fit anymore.
She decided on a maxi gown. She couldn't go wrong in a maxi gown, no matter her size.
She made a mental note to go shopping before she returned to England. She didn't want to be in a dilemma about what to wear anytime she was in Florida.
The dress was a halter neck gown and it had a deep back line. In the past, she didn't dare wear the gown out.
She had bought it on impulse because she liked the color. It was a mixture of a blend of purple, gold, pink, and black in perfect symmetry.
Putting it on, Golden looked at her image in the mirror and was marveled. Allan wouldn't know what hit him when he sees her.
She curled her hair loosely and let it fall to her back. She applied a light makeup but let her eyes be the focus. She smoked her eyes to make them pop and elevate her look.
She wore a black wedge sandals and carried a black foldable clutch purse.
Renshaw House...
Golden got to Allan's house and parked her car across the street. She took the gift bags containing the gifts she had gotten for Tavia and Rema and walked to the house.
Even as she walked over to the house, she was tensed. She tried to calm down and childed herself for behaving like a teenager going on her first date.
She approached the gates and let herself in. She could hear soft music coming from the back of the house, so she followed the music and went out back through the back gate.
Octavia was the first to notice her and she screamed and ran to give her a hug.
“You came! Did you know about the surprise party? I thought you were in England.” Tavia said trying to keep her tears from falling.
She had light makeup on and she didn't want to ruin it.
Rema, hearing his sister scream looked over and saw Golden. He walked to her and gave her a hug.
He had grown taller from the last time Golden had seen him, he was almost as tall as Golden and he looked healthy.
“Happy birthday guys. I wanted to surprise you guys so I flew down to Florida. It's not every day you turn 15.”
