Chapter Seven – The Morning After the Festival
I woke up the next morning before the sun as usual. At first I didn't remember anything that happened the night before, but then it all came rushing back to me. Paul and Maria kissing, falling asleep in Jesse's arms, the Jesse kissing me before he left. I put my fingers on my lips and remembered how Jesse's lips felt against mine. I sat on my bed for a minute just thinking over what happened. Then I got up and got dressed for the day ahead.
I went downstairs and started breakfast. When breakfast was almost done my youngest brother, David, came into the kitchen.
"Need any help, Suze?" David asked me.
"No, it's just about done. Is everyone up?"
"Yeah they're sitting at the dinning room table. Oh yeah, that Paul guy is here,"
"What is he doing here?" I asked myself.
"How should I know."
"Thank you for telling me Paul is here."
"No problem."
David left and I finished breakfast. Once it was done I took it out to the dinning room table. It took me to trips to bring it all out. I sat in my moms seat, because it was the furthest seat from Paul.. After breakfast I piled up all the dishes and took them into the kitchen.
When I got in the kitchen I noticed I wasn't alone. Jesse was leaning against the wall by the backdoor.
"Jesse what are you doing here?"
Jesse looked up when I said this. He came over and took the dishes from me and placed them on the kitchen counter.
"I came here to tell you…"
He didn't say any more, because at that moment Paul walked though the doorway, "Suze… Oh hello Hector," he said when he realized we were not alone.
"Susannah, what is he doing here?" Jesse asked as he pointed at Paul with disgust.
"How should I know, he just showed up while I was cooking breakfast."
"Oh okay, anyway I rushed over here to tell you that the wedding has been moved up. It is now this Saturday."
"A week!"
"Yes, a week. I better get going, I have a wedding to help plan."
"Yeah, you better go," I said with disappointment strong in my voice.
"See ya later de Silva," Paul said as Jesse walked out the door.
"What do you want Paul?"
"What do I want? I just wanted to explain what you saw that night."
"I know what I saw, you don't need to explain and I would appreciate it if you would leave me alone. I'm sorry it didn't work out between us."
"That is to bad. I was going to ask you to be my girlfriend."
