Thank You!

Ladies and gentleman:

Here we start a new stage into the life of someone who was believed dead, finished, out of the Magical World forever: Melinda Anne Black.

So, you most of you would know that she left to go to Marseilles, France to live with her biological grandmother(Mirelda Jacques), for safety and her health matters.That was according to Jade, her foster mom.

Time passed by, she started University to study Gastronomy; she then found a job and had everything she wanted. Except Chris, who she only got to see a few days between school breaks. Even under such circumstances, they kept a relationship going until...

Oh no...Melinda, from a very young age, has had a heart problem which required a transplant soon or she'd die in a couple of years. So, she received an offer in Luxemburg and on the way to the interview, she and her cousin JoAnne, along with her husband, had a terrible car accident. JoAnne and her husband died, but Melly received a terrible hit on her head, leaving her with amnesia.

And with this, Mirelda, her grandmother, takes advantage and tells everyone Melly knew in England that she's dead.The news breaks in the Magical World, first told by Jade to Chris, then going along with newspapers and all media possible. Melinda wakes up three months after the accident, having no memory of her past as a student in Hogwarts nor her life.
Mirelda tells her that she's Loraine Jacques, her grand-daughter, who had just suffered an accident. Also, that she was entitled by JoAnne and her husband to be the foster mother of two gorgeous twins, Caesar and Ulises; oh, and let's not forget, she was also told to be the owner of a restaurant to be open soon in Paris. That life was easly believed by Loraine/Melinda for three long years.

Although, recently Loraine keeps having these dreams, glances of her past. This all becomes inmensely suspicious and confusing, making her do some research about her past getting no results.

But let's not lose hope: Knowing specific locations in London, wondering what they were, she arrives, along with the twins, to live there and start her restaurant, leaving all life in Paris behind her.

And guess what? the restaurant is near the Ministry of Magic...so, it's like she's so stuck to her magic past from then until forever.

This is just the beginning, guys...you know! But think about this...

What will people, the ones Melinda loved and loved her, think as they see her back in London? Would they think of her as a liar? Or what?

What will her reaction be when she finds out the whole truth about her past?

And...what would happen when that truth comes out??

This, and much more will be happening in this RPG. Feel welcome to join and read. And let's have some fun!!!

Anytime. That word fit for Loraine pretty much. She even liked it. "I will call soon, I promise. Life still needs to fit, and put you into it so..." Yeah, Loraine was in the need of something miraculous to happen to her, to be able to remember all the things she'd been missing the past three years. "And Happy Christmas..." Since the next week it was going to happen. She'd be able to talk to Chris even sooner than New Year's, she hoped.

The ride back home in a cab was warmer now, even though the weather outside was harsh than anything ever imagined: all cold and windy. As she arrived to the restaurant, to her home, she made sure the kids and Dani were all sleep now. Gladly, they were and so she soon did. The day had brought her enough surprises as it came.

Next morning, she woke up and prepared the kids a nice breakfast, woke them up and then immediately left downstairs to get everything ready for the morning opening. Lindsay would be there soon.

stan lanevski · 07-01-2010, 03:06 AM

"Chriiiis! This is stupid! I don't want to go in there by myself! Your crazy!" Nick was telling his older brother. He was not going into that place by himself...Nuuuu sirrr!

"Nick come on I'm not asking to to stay long and I will be right here. Please just do it for me." Chris almost begged.

"Fine...." He said sighing as he grabbed the picture of Melinda and stepped out of the car and he zipped up his coat. He was tweleve weren't they going to think it was werid he was going in by himself?!!! He glanced back at Chris who gave him a thumbs up and he just rolled his eyes as he walked into the restaurant.

Grrrrr! Chris was a big dumbie sometimes! He looked around waiting for this woman to show up. He didn't want anything, he just wanted to talk to her and leavvve! He stood by the door with his hands in his pockets looking around. Being short sometimes realllly wasn't gooooood!

Yaya · 07-01-2010, 03:12 AM

Suddenly, the bell hanging by the door was ringing. A costumer and the place had just opened? Wow, Loraine thought. By luck, the breakfast buffet had already been served, and she was available to cook there if needed. Loraine walked towards the cash machine, waiting for anyone who had arrived to go order, but all she could see was a boy, about thirteen years old she guessed standing by the door as if he was expecting to see someone. Confused, she slowly approached him and looked at him. "Umm...are you going to eat something?" She asked the boy, totally not aware of who the boy was.

stan lanevski · 07-01-2010, 03:22 AM

Prefect Chris! It looks like the place just opened and she is going to think he is weird! Or that he's homeless or something because he came so early in the morning! Ohhhh boy he better get something good out of this one!

But as he saw the woman come towards him his eyes widen! Holy cow! There was no way he was seeing this. "I...ah...I...ahhhhh." No words were coming out of his mouth he just looked up at the woman. He finally shook his head. "Nooooo but I think you know my brother. And he wanted me to give you this." He said handing out the picture stil completely dumbfounded! This was waaaay to crazy!

Yaya · 07-01-2010, 03:32 AM

Looking down at the boy, Loraine was shocked. He wasn't saying anything at first; like he had seen a ghost or something, and then he mentioned a brother and handed her a small picture of her...or Melinda, whoever she was into her hands. She looked at it, with care she held it then recognized the two in the picture. Melinda and Chris, together hugging and...she could not look at it no more. She closed her eyes and looked down at the boy.

"I figure out you are Nick? Your brother..." She hesitated about saying the next thing to him or not, it was crazy to think about flying brooms or those weird though kind of known uniforms. "He told me about you, and well...I want to ask you a question, what is Quidditch?" She asked her, disconcerned about what it was. What her mind inside the memories had seen...

stan lanevski · 07-01-2010, 03:40 AM

Nick just nodded when she asked if that's who he was. But then she was asking about Quidditch!? Hmmmmm he wasn't allowed to talk about that to people. But if this was Mel then she should know right???? "Quidditch? Well it's like a sport in some sense." Well that was a lie it was a sport! But if she didn't know about magic he wasn't getting in trouble for telling a muggle about magic noooooo way!

"Can I ask you something?" He asked softly still look up at her slightly. "Do you remember me or Chris?" He asked raising an eyebrow.

Yaya · 07-01-2010, 03:44 AM

Quidditch is a sport. That was all she could get. Not complaining about the answer, she shrugged, hoping Chris would talk about it when they would have time to.

Then Nick asked if she remembered them. "I sort of do, I have flashes of you, Chris and many of the people I supposedly met before my accident...why do you ask this?" Loraine was shocked. Things were starting to feet and she felt weird at the thought of having to ask something to her grandmother. She was scared of doing so.

stan lanevski · 07-01-2010, 03:50 AM

To her answer Nick nodded, but shrugged to her question. "Because we've all missed you." He said sheepishly as he looked down slightly. That's when her ring caught his eye. She must be getting married. Well everybody knew that was a mistake! She was suppose to marry Chris riiiight???

"And if you remember Chris you would still love him and not be marrying somebody else." He said pointing to her ring....Sighhhhh this was sad and he wasn't suppose to be saaad! Christmas was like a week away!!!

Yaya · 07-01-2010, 03:58 AM

A cold yet warm gulp went down Loraine's throat as she listened to the boy say those words. People had missed her, he had missed her, Chris had missed her. "I just wish everything could come back into my memory to say the same thing...because you'd be a boy that I would easly never forget in my life." She told him with a grin and tear in her right eye.

In order to face the kid and try to hide that ring that tied her to a future and maybe unhappy marriage, she sat down on her knees and tried to smile at Nick. "I do...but first, things have to...work like they used to..." She said, looking away and trying to figure out this enormous puzzle put just in front of her eyes. "But it's my heart promise, I swear if you need to listen to it, things will get fixed...and your brother and I will work it out..." And after that, she hugged the boy as she started crying.

stan lanevski · 07-01-2010, 04:07 AM

Nick just smiled to her words. She would never forget him? Well that was a good start right???

He watched as she sat on her knees so she would be his height. Grrrr! He was soooo short! But he listened to every word she spoke. "You do?" He asked. She still loved Chris? He feels bad now for calling Chris crazy but come on it's not every day something like this happens!!!! "You promise that?" He asked.

But soon she hugged him and started to cry. He hugged her back feeling tears in his own eyes. Nick could speak all he could do was hug her back tight.

Yaya · 07-01-2010, 04:16 AM

"Have you felt this...chill in your heart when something that comes back into your life is right there, that's how I feel about your brother right now, like something powerful is coming back to me...I can feel it..." If it was love, let it come. She was a bit deceptioned of Dani after the news from the night before. And her bit of memories coming back to her. "Pinky promise?" She asked, putting her pinky to hold with Nick's as she smiled to the boy and stood up from the floor.

"...and being short is...not bad. Ask my kids, they are the smallest of their class. And anyways, they're the most handsome..." Sure that was a mother's eye, but she was trying to cheer up Nick about his height. Though, she didn't know why she guessed of so..."I'm sure you have girls following you..." LOL. He was a twelve year old, but those days, teenage hormones rebelled.

stan lanevski · 07-01-2010, 01:23 PM

Nick thought about what he was asked. He was twelve of course he hadn't! But I guess it was a good thing she was feeling this way...He just nodded he didn't quite know what was going on between her and Chris but it was something for surrrre. He then watched as she put out her pinky. He smiled and nodded. "Pinky promise." He said hooking pinkies with her.

WAIT did she say kids???! There are so many things that happened in the three short years they hadn't seen her. "Girls following me? I don't really like girls yet soooo it's okay that they don't." He said with a small chuckle. Welllll it was true he still didn't like girls like that!!!!

Yaya · 07-01-2010, 04:53 PM

"Great, and thanks for trusting me..." Loraine told Nick with a smile. Her word was to be fulfilled, because she was now tired of lies, and she knew the time to fight had come. She got to remember the day she told her grandmother about her plans to go live to London. The woman totally overreacted and swore to take the kids away from her if Loraine dared to do so. This reason was the only one Loraine was now scared. Mirelda had money power, and that can do anything...even taking Caesar and Ulises away from her and possible future with Chris. "Now, tell your brother...to be a bit more mature and don't send you alone." Loraine said to Nick, totally kidding but having some sense in saying so. She'd get to see later how Chris reacted.

And well, talking about reactions, Nick seemed surprised about Loraine or Melinda, whoever she was having kids. "I adopted them a few monts after they were born..." She pinned the little happy event of her life with a wide smile. Following his comments about girls, Loraine just raised her eyebrow and smiled. "Alright...just don't feel like that. Look at your brother...I'm sure some genes will come around." She winked as she looked around for a car, Chris's car. Sigh...

stan lanevski · 07-01-2010, 05:59 PM

To her comment about Chris being more mature Nick just laughed. "I will let him know." He promised. Chris could just be kind of stupid sometimes though he understood his thinking of why he wanted to Nick to come alone today. And he wasn't mad or anything at him....

"Ohhhh okay I get it." He said and he watched how wide her smile became. "Have you been happy though?" He asked raising an eyebrow. "That's trrrrue. Chris is suuuuper tall!" Nick said as he watched her look out the window. Maybe looking for Chris's car? "It's that one." He said pointing to it.

Yaya · 07-01-2010, 06:07 PM

If she had been happy. Of course. "I have. My kids, Caesar and Ulises are the main reason of my life since the accidnet, so...for them I smile everyday and come work here." Her smile, had them as the only reason and now a new one: Chris and Nick. Life was coming along, no matter how much it takes. The person she needed to talk to, though was upstairs probably still sleeping.

Looking back and forth to Nick to the car, she smiled and may have giggled when Nick pointed the car in front of the restaurant. She waved towards it, hoping for a quick answer. Gosh, she was acting like a teenager...

"Would you like to eat something?" She asked Nick, and Loraine was willing to cook anything.

stan lanevski · 07-01-2010, 06:29 PM

Nick shoved his hands in coat pockets and listened. "Ohhhhh. Well that's good though." He said. He wasn't quite sure what to say though this was getting a bit harder to talk about. But it was good...he liked talk to her.

Nick watched as she waved to Chris's car hehe! He probably wasn't going to like that to much but he could suck it up!

Come on Nick you've been in there forever. He had his arm leaning on the door and his head resting on his hand and was trying to not fall asleep as he waited. But suddenly he saw Lor waving to him???? Hmmm was this a good thing...he waved back slowly not knowing what was going on.

To her question he shook his head. As much as he looooved her cooking he knew Chris had to get going soon. No I'm good, thanks. I think Chris as to do some stuff to do so I should probably head out soon..."

Yaya · 07-01-2010, 07:13 PM

"You'll probably understand sooner or later..." Loraine told Nick with a wide smile. But then he said he needed to head out, as Chris waved back. "Oh no worries, but you're welcome to come here anytime, I'll consider a discount with you." With a grin and spark in her eye, she'd love the both Kaplans to come to eat dinner there, but as far as situation went, for now it'd be prudent to let things come in time.

"Okay...I also have to get back to work. So...if you want to take anything from the buffet while you are with Chris, go ahead..." Just an offer, in case the boy wanted a small piece of cake, or anything. "And say hi to your brother...thanks for coming." She told him and quickly hugged him.

stan lanevski · 07-02-2010, 02:32 AM

"Ohhh really a discount even?" Nick asked in a teasing way. "Well I will just have to let Chris know that. Or maybe I can come in with my dad sometime before I have to go back to school." He added with a small shrug.

Nick chuckled when she offered him more food! Hehe! That seemed about right Mel always like to do that! But he shook his head. "I'm okay for right now. But thanks anywyas." He said with a small smile. "I will." Nick said as he hugged her back before letting go again. He looked at her once more giving her one more small almost sad smile before heading back out the door.

He walked back into the car with out saying a word. He could tell Chris later, right now he was toooooo freaked out! He looked out the window as the car began to move once more.

Yaya · 07-02-2010, 03:02 AM

"Okay, I'll be waiting for you and..." His dad? So, it meant that she met the family, the whole family and doesn't remember a single minute of it? Wow, she really felt bad at that moment. "...your dad." She finished the sentence hesitating a bit. "What school do you attend?" It was weird, because if he attended somewhere close he could be at the restaurant everyday.

As Nick headed out, a small frown invaded Lor's face. Oh well, she'd see him and the Kaplans later. As the car left, she looked out the door and then wandered back into her office.

Syd · 07-02-2010, 03:39 AM

SPOILER!!: Rian is here!!! :D

Hmm. Rian had been in London for almost 2 years now, and she'd never been to this restaurant. Well, that would change. She hummed lightly to herself as she walked into the building, inhaling the smell of food. Her head whipped back, her eyes widened. Was that Chris Kaplan? ...No, it couldn't have been. Right?

She quietly seated herself, shaking her head to clear her thoughts.

Yaya · 07-03-2010, 03:15 AM

A few of the waiters had already arrived, as Loraine listened for a few minutes to the checking clock at the back entrance. Though, none had arrived to the front entrance to check if there was any people coming in. A few minutes later Nick and Chris had left, the door bell rang again. Odd, there weren't too many people coming for breakfast these days, and even less when school break was on and not many took their chance to be around the cold winter during those days.

Knowing there was no movement again, she decided to go look again. And there, was a young woman, sitting at a table at the middle waiting for service. No waiter was around, so she took a small notepad and headed towards her. "Hello and welcome...would you like to order now? or...would you like to eat something from the buffet?" She asked her.

Anum · 07-05-2010, 01:26 AM

Lindsay walked up to the restaraunt, her pace leisurely, as she adjusted her hair. She wondered how Blake was doing...oh, but that was just nonsense. What did she care how he was doing? Anyway, she really wanted to know how Lor was doing, after what happened yesterday.
Finally reaching the doors, Linds opened them and let herself in. Letting her eyes adjust to the lights, she made her way to her office first, and dropped off her blazer. Looking around, she checked to make sure everything was in order, and then stepped out so she could check the kitchen. Of course, Blake would not be here--he probably took the day off, the little monser.

LaFresita · 07-28-2010, 03:56 AM

The day after the concert, Lena was on her way home from the store. As Blake was working, she had no problem taking her time and ended up getting a cappuccino from the local cafe. The coffee reminded her of Chris's opposition to her early-morning rituals and she decided to swing by for a visit, since her last one didn't go so great. In what seemed like no time at all, Lena was shifting her bags to one hand and setting her coffee down on the banister behind her to knock on Chris's door.

stan lanevski · 07-28-2010, 04:23 AM

Nick was out with some friends for the day. Which was mostly the reason he wanted to stay with Chris in England anyways. But Chris was also very glad of this because of what the poor kid had to see today. After thinking somebody is dead for three years and then learning they might not be is really creepy and scary. And Nick had already been through so much....

So of course Chris was the one to hear a knock at the door??? Huh? He placed his guitar down and walked to the door. Once he was there he opened it and to his suprise found Lena standing there??? Though he was actually really happy to see her, he needed somebody to talk to about all this!

"Heyyyy." He said with a warm smile. "What are you doing here?" He asked slightly curious...

LaFresita · 07-28-2010, 03:22 PM

Lena smiled at the fact that Chris seemed to be happy to see her. She grabbed her coffee off the banister and replied, Well, I felt kind of bad about the last time I came over.... plus I missed you, she added with a small grin. Can I come in?
