Chapter 166ย On the weekend. Sienna arrived early at the intersection at Lyceum Street, waiting for Josiah to pick her up. The entire Flynn family was eager to see her performance that night. Since the show started at 8:20 PM, Miranda suggested they grab dinner beforehand at Lucky Diningย Josiah pulled up in under five minutes. He stepped out of the car, a hint of nervousness on his face. โSorry, did you have to wait long?โย โNot at allโ Sienna replied as she got in the car, โI just got here early. Youโre so busy and you really didnโt need to pick me up. I couldโve made it onย my ownย sheโd mentioned this on the phone, but Josiah hadnโt agreed.

I should pick you up. Do you get that?โย Josiah held the car door, a slightย Sienna sensed his imitation but didnโt probe further. She just gave a brief nod. โYeah. I get it.โย Josiah wasnโt entirely convinced she truly understood, but he closed the car door and headed to Lucky Dining with her.ย Everyoneโs settled in the private room, including Miranda and the crew.ย โSienna, pull up a chair right here,โ Miranda said, parting the spot next to her. Yvetteโs on the other side, so Howard and Josiah have to scoot over aย bit.ย just perfect how things worked out! Weโre like one big family nowโjust like what weโre made toย Miranda, all smiles, said with excitement. โIsnโt in je be. Tonightโs gonna be a great family dinnerย Sienna didnโt take the whole family thing, but she didnโt argue with Mirandaโs comment, just smiled and said, โIโm really looking forward to this. Itโs been a long time since Iโve been to Lucky DiningTMย Sheโd dined here when she was with the Flynn family and it had been over four years since she used to come around often.ย Miranda looked at Josiah, raiving an eyebrow. โJosiah, whatโs the deal? You havenโt been taking Sienna out much, have you?โย Josiah was speechless. He wanted to take Sienna out, but she had to be willing too. They had only just started datingย โDonโt worry, Grandma,โ he said, glancing at Sienna. Till make sure Sienna gets to try all the good places from now on.โ But Sienna seemed her own thoughts, not even looking his wayย The waiter came in with the food and started serving everyone, saying. โEnjoy your meal.ย Howard, sining in his wheelchair, tried to put the waiterโs arm, signaling him to portion out the food.ย Yvette, surprised, looked at him. โHoward, what do you want?โ she asked, ready to help him.ย lost inย But Howard shook his head, collected some food, moved the plate closer to Sienna, and smiled at her, โNoโฆ SโSienna, try some of this. Itโs really good.โย Sienna looked down to find her favorite dishes right in front of her. She felt a warm feeling inside. Thanks, Howard,โ she said.ย โYou got it.โ Howard smiled and left.ย Beside Sienna, Josiah was already serving her some potatoes. He knew it was her kind of main dish. He whispered, โIs this good? Want moreย โThis is great.โ Sienna replied. โThereโs plenty here.โย Josiah nodded and started peeling shrimp, putting them on her plate. โGo ahead. These wonโt make you gain weight, he said.ย Sienna hesitated, her plate already full from what Miranda had recommended. โDonโt do this, or I wonโt be able to finish and itโll go to waste,โ she warnedย โNo problem.โ Joush said and grinned at her. โEat what you can, and Iโll take care of the rest.โย Yvette watched all this and felt a bit left out. In this family setting, does anyone even notice me anymore!โ she wondered.ย Sienna was digging into her food, her long hair spilling over her shoulders. Josiah reached over and tucked it behind her earย 1/2ย DreameโRead Romanceโฆย Downloadย 7:18 PMย Chapter 166ย โI got this,โ she said, pulling a hairband out of her bag and quickly tying her hair back..ย Yvetteโs eyes flicked to Siennaโs hairband. Isnโt that the same one Josiah dropped a while back! Oh, I get it. So Josiah has got it for her? Either way, this is getting juicyย that hairbย hairband was Siennaโs, or maybeย After theyโd mostly polished off their meal, Sienna got up and headed to the bathroom. When she came out. Yvette was at the sink, touching up makeup. Sienna just ignored her and bent down to wash her hands.ย โHey, Sienna,โ Yvette said.ย Sienna looked up, caught off guard, and wondered if Yvette was really talking to her.ย โCould you grah me a cotton pad from my makeup bag? I messed up my lipstickโ Yvette said with a bright smile, pointing to her bag on the counter. โMy hands are full.โย Sienna heated for a secย a second, then took a breath and opened the makeup bagย โThe pink pouch. See it? Yvette addedย Sienna didnโt see the pouch, but her eyes landed on a hairbandโjust like the one she had on. She looked back up at Yvette, her eyes narrowingย โs up?โ Yvette asked, pretending to be confused. โWhy areย are you looking at me like that?โย โUh, whatโs uย Sienna smirked. So Yvette was trying to show her up with the hairband. She sized Yvette up, her gaze steady.ย โWhy are you staring at me like that?โ Yvette shifted a bit under her gaze.ย Siennaโs smile turned a bit sassy. Tve gotta give it to you. Youโre going after both Howard and Josiah, huh? How do you pull off being so boldโย Yveneโs face drained of color. โSienna, what are you even talking about?โ :ย Sienna yanked the hairband from her hair, waving it in front of Yvette. โYou showed me that on purpose, right? Trying to hint you and Josiah have some secret thing going on!โ.ย โLโ Yvette was speechless. Yeah, she wanted toย Ito get under Siennaโs s skin, but not like this.ย โPlease,โ Sienna scoffed. โTve known about your little games with him for years. Oh, well, and your story. No need to try and subtly remind me.โย โSienna, just stopโ Yvette snapped, both mad and embarrassed. โYouโre so quick to think the worst. Josiah and I grew up together. Our connection is way deeper than you can fathomโย โGirl, Iโm not even trying to fathonย to fathom. Whatever, Sienna shrugged, tossing the hairbandย nd in the trashย She looked up and saw Josiah standing at the door, having found her without her noticingย 2/2ย
