Chapter 6

Angela

Weeks and weeks went by as I spend more time with Chase. I knew we could only be friends though and I hope he understands. After all, I too have feeling for Gill, I just never show them that's all.

I woke up, got change, ate breakfast and went straight to the Town Hall. I saw Gill there as he saw me. I smiled at him as he did the same back. "Hey." He said.

"Hi." I said.

"It's been a while since I last talk to you."

"Yeah, sorry about that."

"It's okay, I'm glad your back."

"Me too, and I promise to come here every single day."

"Good."

"Yeah, although I still have to go to work at the bar."

"Oh, and how do you like that?"

"Fun! I enjoyed it for once."

"I bet it is. Anyways, um…you mind taking the shift off?"

"Why?"

"It's that, my mother and Vivian…their coming tonight, and you said you'll come and meet them when they come."

"Sorry. I can't. Chase expects me there every night. No excuses. Same with Hayden."

"Oh okay. Maybe you can meet them tomorrow."

"Sure okay."

Once it was 8am, we both went inside the Town Hall. Gill went to his spot as I asked Elli for a part time job again. Elli of course, said yes and took me to the desk. I sorted out the paperwork. Then Gill took me to my next job, cleaning out the bookshelves. As I always do. When we got up there I saw all the books were un organize. I went to the desk and look at the plans, I did last time. I looked around and checked every single shelf. Some were broken and some aren't. I took all the books out of every shelf and placed them on the floor. I looked at Gill. "Some of your stuff here are broken. If you like, I can remodel the second floor." I said.

"Yes, please, thank you." Said Gill. I smiled.

"Okay, tell Elli that I'm going to be up here for the next few weeks."

Gill nodded his head as I went downstairs. I sat on the sofa and started drawing a whole bunch of designs. Once the design looks right I went to show it to Gill. He smiled at the design and told me it was good. I smiled back him.

Gill

At 5pm, Angela and I taped the stairs to the library and then left. My mother and Vivian will be coming at 6pm. Angela has to start work at 6pm.

Mayor Hamilton was at the dock already as I stood beside him. I was excited and a bit nervous. Excited to see my mother again and nervous to see what Vivian looks like.

Just then there was a boat coming up from the horizon. We walked toward the edge of the dock. There was my own mother, she looks alike like me. Long light blond hair and blue eyes. She wears any collar shirt and black skirt, long in the fall or winter and short in the summer or spring. She usually wears high heels during the spring, summer and fall, and high heel winter boots during winter. Vivian look exactly like mother and me. Shoulder length light blond hair and blue eyes. She wears a white long sleeve collar shirt with a tie, red paid skirt, black shoes and a hair clip.

One they got off the boat, I looked at them for a long time. Same with my mom and sister. "Welcome back to Waffle Island, Camilla" Said Mayor Hamilton.

"Well, it's nice to be back here." Said Camilla as she soon looked back at me.

"Remember you son, Gilbert?"

"Gill." I corrected him. Camilla walked closer to me.

"Gill? Is that really you?" She asked me.

"Yes, mom. It's me." Camilla gave me a big hug.

"Oh Gill, I missed you so much. 14 years was a long time you know."

"More than 14 years mom, I wasn't even close to 4."

"Oh right. Well, Gill meet your sister, Vivian." Said Camilla, Vivian came toward me.

"Gill?" She asked.

"Vivian…" Vivian gave me a hug.

"A brother…I have a big brother."

"And how old are you?" Vivian looked up at me.

"She turns 4 in the winter." Said Camilla.

"When's her birthday?" I asked.

"Winter 6th." Said Vivian, I gave her a hug. Vivian smiled as I smiled back.

"I'm not longer an only child."

"Same here."

Mayor Hamilton soon remember the space at home. Mayor Hamilton told them to stay at the Inn for a while. I took Camilla and Vivian to the Inn. When we went in, everyone was staring at us. I went to the counter with Camilla and Vivian. I felt Angela's glare behind my back. Colleen stared at me. "Gill, who is this?" She asked.

"My mother, Camilla and my sister Vivian." I said.

"Oh, okay. Need a room?"

"A room for 2 people please." Said Camilla.

"Sure. So, um, are you related to Gill?"

"Mayor Hamilton's my ex husband, Gill's my son." Said Camilla.

"And Gill's my big brother." Said Vivian, hugging me tightly.

"Yeah. Camilla's my mother and Vivian my little sister." I said embarrass. Well this is a little bit embarrassing

"Oh okay. Come with me to your new room." Said Colleen. Camilla put her hand on Vivian's shoulder.

"Come on sweetie, time for bed." She said, Vivian looked up at her.

"Okay mommy. Good night Gill." She said and went upstairs with Camilla.

I made my way home. I could still feel Angela's glare behind me. I just ignored it and exit the building and went home. Mayor Hamilton was talking on the phone. His face went down. I stared at it. When he hang up I quickly looked at him. "Father…what's wrong?" I asked.

"Now that me and Camilla are going to get married…we have to live together." Said Mayor Hamilton.

"Yeah so?"

"I was just talking to Dale about it and he said he can't make do it."

"What? Why?"

"Because of our neighbourhood. It's too small. There not enough space to make our house bigger."

"So, what are we going to do about it?"

"I don't know Gill. We have to think of something or…"

"Or…"

"We'll be moving away from Waffle Island…."
