Everything for Love {Everything for the Throne- 2}
The Grand wedding
A celebration that was anticipated all around the world..
Wedding for Henry
The governor's elder son who was an eye candy for all the dilution girls around the city who suddenly showed interest in politics when Henry followed the same steps as his father
Today was the day they were slapped back to reality..
He had tied knot to Siya, making him son-in-law law of the finance minister of the nation
The witness of this grand union were all those who frequently appeared in news and media
Carlos
Instead of standing nxt to ur brother what are u doing here in this corner Alice?
Alice
Hunting for a husband
Carlos
with those drunk eyes?
Alice glanced at the glass she held which was left with one or 2 sips of wine
Alice
well.. Atleast I am hunting drunk unlike u entering a hotel, drunk with a man who is not my type..
Carlos
(turning red)
Can u not bring up that embarrassing past!!
Alice
Past? Last night has been considered past already?..
Alice glanced at Carlos who was now red from neck... she leaned in whispering
Alice
looks like u didn't have much time to cover those marks from ur "past"
Carlos with wide eyes covered his neck as Alice walked away with a chuckle to grab another glass..
With a new glass of wine in her hand she turned around to only meet eyes with Henry who had been looking for her for some time now
with his gesture to come up for a photograph, she sighed looking at the untouched glass in her hand
She turned around to place it back on the table when she bumped into a tall man and dropped it on the floor along with a paper the man had in his hand
Now the white sheet that seemed to have a scribbling on it was stained with wine
Christian
I'm sry miss, it was my mistake sneaking up behind u--
Alice who was about to apologize to the man was taken aback from the sudden confession
Christian
I wanted to introduce myself to u so--
Henry had rushed down from the stage as he witnessed the "accident"
Henry
R U ALRIGHT!!.. step away from the glasses.. U might get hurt!
The crowd surrounded with the cameras clicking muting the murmurs
Christian slipped away leaving Alice stand in the spot with blank face
She looked around the chaos she had created at her brother's wedding
she glanced at Henry who was panicking over the small incident.. her gaze went down on the broken glass that had created the mess..
and there amidst the mess laid the paper Christian left behind.. the wine stained drawing of a woman in gown with glass of wine in her hand
Kiddos!
<Ding dong.. diiiiiing doooong... DIIIIIIIIING DOOOOOOO--->
Gloria
<opening the door furiously>
Can u have a bit of patience!?
Luca
<pushing her aside>
Nope, had put every drop of patience surviving the class today
Charles
(flustered) Hello, Ria
Luca who straight up went to the refrigerator looking for food made Gloria roll her eyes..
Gloria
I just finished the food
Luca
<turning around dramatically>
U.. U finished the food.. the food cooked by mother... by mother for me..
Gloria
I finished the food cooked by mom for US..
Luca
and where is the part that is supposed to be MINE in that US?
Gloria
well... payback for the time u finished my ice cream..
Luca
How can u be this childish!?
Gloria
Me!?.. who was the one that stole my pencil in class 2nd?
Luca
I borrowed it!! it was u who stole my drawing book in class 4th
Gloria
No way! it was coz u stole my Christmas card of that year
Luca
Coz u cried for my gift like a spoiled brat!
Gloria
The gift was mine!!
Luca
it was clearly wrapped in blue.. which is assignment color for boys
Gloria
Dyamn u, assigned color? se×ist hypocrite
Luca
(confused) why am I a hypocrite here?
Gloria
so u do not deny that u r a se×ist? (sneer)
and they went on until Charles opened the door for the delivery guy
Luca
Did u order something?
Charles
well.. I'm hungry unlike u to fill my stomach with comebacks and curses from ur sister..
well if u r competing on who is more childish I must say the match ends with tie.. Congratulations both of u r winners!
Charles "huffed" as he sat on the couch changing the TV channel
Gloria
<whisper> has ur "intimidating-timid" cousin finally lost his temper?
Luca
<whispering> na he is just hungry
Charles
come have ur pizza before it turns cold Luca
The calm usual tone of Charles made Gloria and Luca giggle leaving Charles Cutely confused
Gloria who was enjoying the stolen pizza slice of Luca chocked at the news as she looked at Charles
Luca
<passing water bottle to Gloria>
Isn't she abroad for her new movie shoot?
Charles
Has paparazzi ever let her enjoy her dates?
Luca
I pity the private life of celebrities
Charles
mutual thoughts dude.. can't even enjoy a night by beach.. tch..tch..
Gloria who was now relaxed look at the 2 men who were having a deep sympathetic conversation
Gloria
They might have misspelled her name but that's clearly Aunt Catherina ryt?
Gloria
and she is in caught up in a Scandal.. with a man...
Charles
yeah.. It's the third time this month
<continues enjoying his pizza>
Luca
Well uncle must be regretting dying his hair to a color that had made paparazzi hard to recognize him
Charles
naa.. dad is enjoying popping up on news with his wife in "love scandals".. he complains how they take pretty candid pics of them but ruin it with censor
Luca
isn't he enjoying it a bit too much
Charles
He just treats the paparazzis like his private photographer
Gloria
I always wonder why u both have no friends other than company of each other.. well it's self explanatory hearing weird non-relatable conversation of urs
Charles and Luca turned towards Gloria with blank faces
before Gloria could say anything the door opened, grabbing their attention
Alice
.........
<pointing at TV>
why do we have that nonsense spouting box in our house
with the nxt news popping up about her husband Alice silently walked to her room
Gloria
<mumbling> it's a box spouting nonsense until the news is about dad
Luca
(chuckle) mother will never change, would she
Christian
That is what we love about her (chuckles)
The free bird
Catherina
Tch.. here we go again..
said Catherina as she entered her apartment
Jason
I hope they have captured some good candids
Catherina
(furious) Is THAT ur concern, Jason?.. when was the last time we had a proper date without being filmed? Why are they so obsessed with my life even after all these years?
Jason
<lifting her up>
well u being a sensational actress who have been working in the industry since age 5 and remaining single for such a long time is indeed something interesting, isn't it
Jason who princess carried Catherina to the room, gently made her sit on the bed while she continued to pout
Catherina
Do u wanna make our relationship public? How long will u hide Jason..
Jason
(smile) For u who shine brightest.. I shall hide forever.. That is my way of treasuring u, my wife
Catherina
U want me to be wife of a rich man? Mom I have a new movie coming up and u want me to marry and end my career at such a young age?
Shouted Catherina on the phone, infuriated with the sudden request of her mother
Zoya
Darling, the production house is not doing good.. ur brother signed up with a different agency after the disagreement with ur father..
We will be bankrupt soon.. by this union we will have a solid funding for the reestablishment
Catherina
U pushed me in front of the camera at the age where I found every sparkling things amusing
and when I have finally found a spark within myself u want me to marry a man and loose it?
Zoya
15 years in the industry.. Enough time for u to enjoy.. Now it's time u fulfill ur duty as a woman.. marry the rich man, have his kids and get settled.. U don't have to lift a finger.. I'm asking u to live a life with no stress.. as ur mother I want u to live without worries and money buys u that..
I shall hear no more of ur complaints u shall meet him tmrw evening
as the call ended Catherina lifted her trembling hand up wanting to smash the phone to the grounds.. but she held back..
Catherina
(Muttering) nothing new.. this is nothing new.. I am used to this
Torn jeans and a oversized shirt which exhibited her red bra strap of her right shoulder..
red high heels that was never intended to match her fit..
A messy bun with a big black cooling glass that covered half her face..
A long multicolor feather earning dangling on one side of her ear
A woman who looked from a different world in the middle of the classy star hotel
She had too much attention on her with everyone whispering about her choice of style..
Jason
I'm sorry for making u wait.. I left a hour ago but the traffic held me back for a longer time than I had anticipated
aren't u cold Miss Catherina.. the temperature is quite low in here isn't it.. plz have this
Jason who sat across her removed his blazer immediately showcasing his muscular built underneath the tight formal shirt
Catherina was surprised by the sudden apology and the concern, but more than that she was taken aback by how her plan to embarrass him had terribly failed
Catherina
<taking the blazer>
ahm.. I'm too busy to waste my time here Mr Jason.. let's not play this game of date
As u might know I'm a actress who has a number of movies and dramas lined up.. and moreover I have just turned 20
I have no intention of giving up on the life I have been living for past 15 years and start a new as a trophy wife of a rich man like u..
Jason
I have no desire for a trophy wife
Catherina
Being a married woman in this industry at such a young age means the end!!.. All the roles of main lead.. all those dramas and movies.. this would mean I--
She chocked on her words.. It was the time actress who were unmarried were mostly preferred to be main leads..
To avoid couple fights and restrictions on scenes or possible publicity pair ups for marketing, non-committed actors were what the filmmakers preferred
Jason
then we can keep our marriage hidden
Jason
u don't have to worry about my family.. U can live ur dream.. if the issue is with the industry that prefers unmarried woman.. then we won't make our relationship public..
Catherina
U r... serious? U r ok with a marriage which u r forbidden to talk about?
Catherina was flustered.. she stood up immediately pointing at Jason
Catherina
You.. you r making fun of my life aren't u... U r just saying this for the sake of marriage! I know ur kind.. U would pretend like u have said nothing as such to just close me behind those doors of restrictions
Giving hopes of free sky to only cage the bird.. U find it entertaining don't u
She turned around dropping the blazer on the ground.. but the high heels that didn't match the fit was made to embarrass, wasn't it?
with her balance being disturbed, Catherina closed her eyes expecting the fall of humiliation
With her legs in air.. Catherina gasped at how Jason had held her.. The iconic-Princess Carry
That was when she noticed the gently smiling guy who was sitting before her a while ago was a intimidating man with a faded scar across his left eye..
Jason
I admire u.. ur passion.. ur love for ur dream.. U shine brightest in my eyes Miss Catherina.. I belive I'm no one to keep u hidden in a box just coz I wish to treasure u..
Only a bird that is caged can be given hope of free sky.. How can a bird born facing the vast sky be given hopes Miss Catherina?
(smiles gently)
The aura that screamed 'gangster' seemed gentle as hespilled thehe words of admiration...
after acting alongside numerous handsome actors.. Catherina had finally found her type
