Chapter 4
Neighbors
Miley and Oliver sat on their seats on the plane. They were finally on their way back home after a wonderful cruise. Miley said, "I cannot wait until we can stay in our new house."
"Me too. Our first house as a couple." Just then, the fasten seatbelt light turned off, and the two of them undid their seatbelts, and stood up. Their seats were toward the front of the plane, so they were able to get out quickly. They then proceeded to get their luggage. Then, they went outside to get into their limo.
"Welcome Mr. and Mrs. Oken," said the driver.
"Thank you Tom," replied Oliver. They got inside, and were shocked to see Lily already in there.
"What are you doing here Lily," asked Miley?
"I decided I'd go see your house with you. Is that okay?"
"That's fine, Lily," replied Miley.
"You two will never believe who one of your neighbors is."
"Who?"
"Jamie Albert."
"You're joking?"
"Nope met her the day you two left for your cruise."
"Where at?"
"We ran into each other at the mall."
"Literally or figuratively?"
"Literally. She invited me over to her house."
"Lucky you," said Oliver. Miley elbowed her husband. "Oww!" By now they had arrived at the house. They walked in, and the house was more beautiful than it was when they last walked. Everything was there.
"Do you two want to go swimming," asked Miley?
"I didn't bring a swimsuit," replied Lily.
"Don't worry."
"How big is your pool?"
"Pretty big." They went upstairs and changed. They then went to a part of the fourth floor, Lily hadn't seen before. They walked into a room. Inside there were three shouts with water pouring into each one of them.
"You've got slides that start in your house?"
"Yeah. They don't go all over the house, but they are pretty long. Last one at the bottom is a rotten egg." Miley then runs and goes through the center shoot. Lily and Oliver looked at each other for a second, and then went down the remaining shoots. About three minutes later, all three of them were in the small pool at the bottom of the slides. They swam around some, dove off the diving board, and just had fun. An hour later, one of the butlers came out. Miley swam over. "Yes Jonas?"
"There is a Ms. Jamie Albert at the door, Ms. Oken."
"Show her out here Jonas."
"Yes, mam." He
left, and Miley went back to having fun. Five minutes later, Jonas
returned, and Jamie was right behind him. Jonas then left. Miley,
Oliver and Lily got out of the pool.
"Hey, Lily," said
Jamie.
"Hey, Jamie. These are my friends and your new
neighbors, the Okens. This is Miley and this is Oliver."
"Nice to meet you Jamie," said Miley.
"Thank you. So out of curiosity, how did you come by this?"
"Oliver and I were able to pay for it with inheritances we received."
"Oh. That's cool. Well, I left a fruit basket with Jonas, as a house welcoming gift."
"Thank you."
"Do
you two know who your other neighbor is?"
"No, who is
it?"
"Oh, you'll see. I talked to him, and he'll be over
sometime later today."
"Stop leaving us in
suspense, who is it?" Jonas returned.
"Your other neighbor
has arrived. Shall I show him in?"
"No need," said a familiar voice. Everyone turned to see who it was.
"Oh, my god," Lily said. "Your other neighbor is Johnny Depp. Mr. Depp, can I have your autograph."
"Sure, why not." He signs a piece of paper and gives it to Lily. He then turns to Miley and Oliver. "So Jamie tells me, that I have new neighbors."
"Yes," said Oliver. "I'm Oliver Oken, and this is my wife Miley."
"Nice to meet you. Not to be rude or anything, but Miley have we met before? You seem really familiar."
"I get that a lot. Who do I remind you of?"
"Hannah Montana."
"Yeah, that's not the first time I've heard that."
"Well, I left you pot of chili. Just return the pot when you are done."
"Thank you." Johnny then walked out, with Jamie and Jonas following. "They seem like nice neighbors. Lily, I just had a thought. Doesn't Jamie looks like someone we know?"
"I had that feeling when I first met her. I just cannot put my finger on who she looks like. You don't think.."
"No, couldn't be."
"Lily's right
Miley," said Oliver. "She does look somewhat like Lily."
"Well,
let's get back to swimming. We still have a couple of hours before
Oliver's and my family come. Oliver, do you think we should invite
our neighbors?"
"I don't see why not. It is somewhat of a house warming party."
"I'll go try and stop them before they leave." She left, and Oliver and Lily went inside the house. Ten minutes later, the two of them came out of the slides. They waited a little bit, and a few minutes later, Miley came out of the slides. "They said they'll come. They know to bring swimsuits. Johnny is bringing his wife and kids with him."
"Cool," Lily said. They continued swimming and just having fun.
Somewhere in Malibu…
Elisabeth sat on her bed watching TV. "Soon, my sister, very soon we will be reunited. Soon, we will know who each other are. I will find you my younger sister."
