An Unordered Joy 1
A silent morning at the mansion filled only with the sound of birds chirping
Inside the master bedroom, Lucian's hand moves with calm precision to shut the alarm
Lucian Vance(ML)
*Stretches his body slowly, eyes half-lidded*
He stands up and walks toward the floor-to-ceiling glass. The curtains glide open automatically as he nears the window
Lucian Vance(ML)
*Glance at the birds outside, expression unreadable*
(Even they don't hesitate.)
The door opens quietly. Emma, the head servant, enters with a coffee trolley and a white silk robe. She holds the robe open for him
Lucian Vance(ML)
*Slides his arm into the robe and
takes coffee cup* Thank you
Lucian Vance(ML)
*Makes a call*(with deep morning tone) The load has to be delivered by to night
Lucian ends the call and freshens up before heading down the through staircase
Lucian walks downstairs. He stops midway by hearing voices from below.
Lucian Vance(ML)
*Goes up and bring his pistol with him*
Lucian slowly moves down checking every step and making sure everything is clear.
Lucian Vance(ML)
*Reaches downstairs, points his pistol from which he hears voices*
A person comes out of nowhere towards him. He stood struck by seeing him.
unknown
Surprise Lucs!
*Sees pistol, moves back*
Hey it's me. Calm down.
It is Xavier his best friend and partner in his business.
Lucian Vance(ML)
*Put his pistol down.**Commanding tone *
Why you didn't inform you before.
You know I don't like surprises.
Xavier Knight(ML's Closed friend)
It's Jade idea. She wanted to do.
Jade comes from behind of Xavier. She is wife of Xavier.
Jade Knight(ML friend's wife)
*Till her face down as a guilt.*
Sorry! I want to see your reaction and did this.
Lucian Vance(ML)
*Feels sad for being arrogant, but expressionless*
(Why I reacted in that way...)
Lucian Vance(ML)
*Puts the pistol in his pocket*
You don't have to. I'm being conscious since my cousins came for festival.
Xavier Knight(ML's Closed friend)
*Places his hand on Lucian's shoulder*
I know Lucs! They are the main reason to visit you.
Xavier Knight(ML's Closed friend)
Actually, where are they?
Lucian Vance(ML)
*Relived*
They are having breakfast.
Xavier Knight(ML's Closed friend)
*Rubs his palms together*
Let's surprise them J(his wife). At least they feel surprised and happy by seeing you.
Everyone gets into the dining area.
