Chapter 5 - lost opportunity

finding a table closer to the garden outside liv sat looking out at view outside. the room started filling up with important guests when Adam called out to her."liv can you come here for a moment. I would like to introduce you to someone" she got up walking towards adam,Theo and a young blonde woman who looked very elegant and sophisticated." is this the young woman who you said is taking an art and music class? she is quite lovely .by the way its a p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e to meet you.Im Sadie Hayes."realizing who was speaking to her "oh no the p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e is mine. I'm Liv Harris"hearing Sadie talk with a familiar accent reminded her of that beautiful stranger at the park.Adam and theo were in full conversation with Sadie that they didn't notice when cam showed up next to liv."well I was wishing for a hot guy to have been showing up but sadly it was just her." cam whispered to liv. as if Sadie had heard cam she turned to cam "you must be mr.wilson's niece Camille.i have heard alot about you and your brother." she looked at Adam once more"My brothers should be showing up soon.if you'll excuse me I have other guests to attend.it was a p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e speaking to you" watching as she left Camille started to complain" you want us to talk with snobbs like her?" shocked at her words Adam turnes to the girls "Camille I don't ask much from you . is it so hard to be on your best behavior and not disrespect people who can crush us with one hand ?""liv ,she seemed interested in having a conversation with you. see if you ...."surprised at the words coming out of her uncles mouth she quickly cut in"her? that's a change what makes her so important over me?!"watching Adam quickly pull cam out of the room liv and Theo stood there."that's the first time I have seen her react that way towards you"Theo told liv. thinking that this was the moment for him to express his feeling towards her,he started to talk to liv." hey um now that it's just us two I ..."

"whats up with you Theo your face is turning red"she joked."look ...uh ... I'm trying to...no what I want to say is that we've known each other for so long that..." At that moment sadie walked up towards liv "darling follow me ,I have a few questions and want to get to know you more!"following her liv turned to Theo" I'll catch up with you later." feeling like he messed up his chance to finally come clean he just stood there thinking of why he couldn't say anything." I wouldnt worry that much about her.its not like shes looking for someone or gets all the attention like we do in these events"cam came up behind him assuring him."you're wrong about that she might not be looking but others can see how beautiful she looks.

"look to be honest there is something about you that I like"Sadie told luv as they were walking ."I can spot the snobs,gold diggers,and spoiled brats a mile away. same goes for guys".she continued"I might look classy but I can assure I have my wild side. enough about me I want to hear about you.dont mind my brutal honesty but when a company man always praises his niece and nephew trying to get them to the top and hears someone of my status ask for a person with certain qualities then brings you up makes me wonder if it's just a lie to get my money."

"to be honest I'm surprised as well these events are not my thing.usually it's Camille who is sitting with important people like yourself" liv explained to her."I like your personality.tell me do you know how to sing? play any instruments? how about modeling? " sadie questioned. "I uhh well yes I know how to play piano and a guitar. I enjoy singing but never have done it in public. no I haven't done any modeling. I enjoy painting thats why I'm taking art class.piano and painting are my passion honestly"looking at liv express her hobbies she was reminded of a certain someone."you remind me of my older brother. sadly he has a very strong and demanding personality that makes almost everyone fear him.lets hope it's not the case with you...i will introduce you once he arrives."

"thank you for your time. I'm going to head outside for a bit to get fresh air if it's not a problem"liv replied."I'll find you when he arrives liv."

Walking towards the garden exit Theo stops her"hey can we talk now?"pulling away from him liv continued walking"not right now I need to be alone for a bit".debating whether to follow her and try to talk with her or give her space Theo watched her walk off into the garden until she couldnt be seen anymore."Give her space this evening has been very eventful for her compared to all the other events shes gone to with us.cam is still upset with her for something out of their control...go talk to your sister she listens more to you"Adam suggested to him.

Once she was outside liv sat by the water fountain to catch her breath.it was night already but the garden was well lit in certain areas. the quiet helped her relax and calm down from everything inside.closing her eyes for a bit she hears slow foot steps approaching"cam I'm not in the mood to hear you complain right now"liv stated looking up to the direction of the footsteps .she saw the dark figure of a man standing there. "Theo I don't want to talk right now please"thinking he had followed her to the garden.Realizing that it couldnt be Theo since he was thin and shorter than this person walking her direction she started to wish it was still daylight or that the garden had more lighting.

"Is everything ok love?"
