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!!!

After Helena left, he was approached by a somewhat furious manager. He smiled at her warmly but she wiped off his smile by mentioning that he had to wash the dishes. He didn't let the displeasure show on his face and simply bowed, "I'll get to it right away." He proceeded to clear Helena's table and untouched food, hoping she'd go easy on him if he did his chores quickly.
Once the table was cleared, Blake popped the headphones of his Ipod in his ear and whistled his way over to the kitchen, spinning the tray on his finger all the while.

He strode towards the sink, humming the song which was blasting in his ears and dumped the content of the tray in the sink. After turning the tap on, Blake switched to the song 'Bad Romance' by the muggle singer Lady Gaga. Grabbing the soapy scrubber, he started to wash the dirty dishes as he swayed his hips around. "Rah-rah-ah-ah-ah! Rumah-rum-mah-mah! GaGa-oo-la-la! Want your bad romannnnce." Blake sang and bopped his head to the music. Inside, he was all giddy about his very first date with Helena and the excitement was clearly showing on his face. Playing with the kaleidoscopic soapy bubbles, his mind went completely blank as he danced to the tune and almost forgot that he was at work. Pouting, he danced towards the broom cupboard and dragged out a mop and a bucket full of lathery water. Using the mop as a mic, he crooned, "I wantttt your drama, the touch of your hand......I want your love, love, love love." Smiling to himself, he closed his eyes and spun around, the mop moving to the beat as well.

He was totally in a different world and the fear of being caught by Lindsay had vanished. He could care less if she came out of somewhere and fired him on the spot. C'mon he was just having a good time and she can join in the fun too. As he moon-walked on the shiny kitchen floor, Blake's foot accidentally collided with the bucket and the bubbly water was now slithering on the floor. "Oh crap..." He muttered and shot a glance at the door but no one had been watching him. He heaved a silent sigh of relief and continued his happy dance. Turning off the tap water, he resumed his singing and was now mopping the floor. "I want your love and I want your revenge...you and me could write a baaaaaad romaannnce...oh my gosh..aaaaaaaaahhh." His voice filled the kitchen once more but by the time Blake could realize that his shoe laces were undone and that he was about to slip, he was on the floor, dripping from head to toe in the smelly frothy liquid. He fell back on the floor, hugging the mop to his chest, smiling and chuckling. The crazy song finally ended. He was sooo happy he could die. Helena had such a strong effect on this poor boy. EvilHelena! What a bad, evil romance.

Faith ducked out from behind a shelf, Blake. "You're such a mess!" She yelled at Blake making sure he could hear her over the loud music. She couldn't help but laugh when he slipped and fell. She moved over to the sink and dipped her rag in hot water again. "Make sure you clean that mess up there on the floor." She said pointing to the water mess. "I just cleaned that." she told him going back to a stove she was cleaning.

She sighed, some reason Blake had reminded her about Seth. Possibly the way he was singing along to his i-pod as loud as he could. She blinked back the tears that threatened to spill over. She was not going to cry today...not here at least.

Yaya · 02-24-2010, 07:02 AM

Loraine smiled as Lindsay seemed to be okay about the fact of closing early. "Thanks, Lindsay." She said, giving her a wide grin, although her unexpected headache at that minute. So, as soon as Lindsay left her office, Loraine opened a drawer she never thought of using, not in years, to take her headache pills. She was determined to not be distracted by a headache during her appointment with Ms. Todd. "Let the rest of this day be..normal, just the rest of these two hours..." She talked to herself, praying for a calm moment. Her life was in a twist at that second.

Minutes later, she heard the bell hanging by the door sound, and Lindsay speaking to a woman who replied as Ms. Todd. Gladly, her headache pills worked fine, so with a slight smile, she stood up from her chair and walked right outside her office towards the restaurant seating area. "Welcome, Ms. Todd, thanks for coming..." She welcomed her, paying so bit of attention to her face at the time, because she was more focused on where they would be sitting and what could be served. Maybe the specialty of the day: Braised Halibut Provencal . "Lindsay, have Faith prepare us a booth for two, and the chef to cook the Specialty of the day, please." She told Lindsay, trying not to sound bossy. But oh god, she'd had one of her worst days. "Ms. Todd, any special drink, aperitive you'd like to start today?" Kindly, Loraine asked, as she walked towards the booth they'll be talking and eating business.

And well, this was a business meeting, so she was to introduce herself, properly. "Sorry for being so distracted." She commented, underbreath then offerered her hand for a shake, as she turned around and faced Ms. Todd. Odd, again..."I'm Loraine Jacques, owner of the restaurant, you already know our Manager, the wonderful Lindsay and sooner or later you'll meet...." Blake. Just that second she was to mention him, a loud thud and splash was heard, along with a few yelling coming from the kitchen. "...Faith and Blake, two of our star waiters..." She was really proud of them, although she knew Blake would stay only temporaly. She'd have to make a huge pleading to make him stay, at least more time. But that was to be thought about later. "Now, you're welcome to sit..." She said, putting aside a small table for Rhiannon's portafolio and purse. Was this going to be more odd than the day she'd already had. Maybe...because her face, Rhiannon's face looked so familiar to Loraine.

SilverTiger · 02-24-2010, 10:23 AM

Before she could decide whether to go in the office or wait outside, Rhiannon was suddenly faced with the woman who had come out on her own. And she blinked as a memory from years ago floated into her head at her appearance. A memory from way back at Hogwarts, with Josh. Shaking it off, she smiled at the gracious welcome. "It was no problem," she said at the expression of gratitude on her coming. She would have anyway, even though the entire situation was getting weirder the further it went on. First her voice, and now this. It was making her curious, but she was getting sheperded to a table before she could voice any of it. To be honest, she wasn't sure how to word it in the first place.

"Water is fine to start," she said at the question of drinks, "Unless you have any recommendations?" Something told her a request for firewhiskey might not go over well, although she was beginning to think it would be helpful. And then she was getting a formal introduction, and she smiled again as she took the outstretched hand, still a bit distracted. "Rhiannon Todd. It's nice to have a face to go with your voice," she said, referring to their earlier phone conversation, before her smile turned a bit more animated. "Yes, I just made the acquaintance of your manager. She seems to be quite efficient in her job," she said, before trailing off with a questioning expression as noises echoed out into the room from the direction of the kitchens. Taking the seat that was offered, crossing her legs gracefully underneath the table as she placed her portfolio down, she finally looked back at Ms. Jacques. "Do your star waiters always put on a performance, or is this just an unusual occurrernce?," she asked, trying to keep things light instead of focusing on the memories that kept pushing forward in her mind. It was odd, especially since she'd only had the one experience with the girl Ms. Jacques highly resembled, but she couldn't stop thinking of it.

Blake panicked and leaped to his feet as he hastily tried to wipe off the water gliding on his lime green iPod but what happened next made him jump and drop his precious companion on the floor. For one sick second, he thought he was going to get fired. However, as he focused more on his surroundings, he realized it was only Faith who was chuckling at his fall. He breathed a silent sigh of relief and bent down to pick his ipod. Shoving it in his pocket, Blake jerked his wet arms and smiled widely.

Ignoring what Faith was instructing him to do, he moved towards her while she was cleaning the stove and placed his hands on her shoulder as he spun her around gently, "I'm SO happy!" He said, grinning from ear to ear and raised his hand for a high five. "C'mon leave this." He grabbed the rag from her hand and started to clean the stove himself, "You go and take care of outside, I'll handle things here." He said to her and continued to clean the stove, impatiently glancing at his wrist watch. When is the clock going to strike nine? He was literally itching to see her again.

Alright.

As soon as Loraine saw her face, there came this flashes of pictures, of almost movies inside her head. Was this going to continue all day long? She guessed it was her headache still doing some wrong doings inside her mind. She denied herself everything seen that day, for now. It was time to talk with Rhiannon and there was nothing stopping that, not even a stupid migraine. "Umm...I've heard, around her that...this drink, called firewhisky is very popular..." Surely, Loraine had never heard about it, but she could hear from costumers that worked around the restaurant that it was very good. "How about we bring a whole jar of fresh water and a couple of firewhisky shots?" She was ready to order Faith for that. Though, she wondered where the woman was.

Loraine smiled back and agreed. "Yes, having these meetings sure make business and life so much better..." And easier. She felt that since the call, things had gone a bit, weirder than ever in the past three years.

"Oh, Lindsay has been the pilar that makes this restaurant stand. I am sooo bad at business sometimes, and she just has that...charm to make everything work..." She complimented Lindsay again, after all everything she said was true. Even with her usual bossyness. "And as for the waiters, they have their own...pace. We just started, we are making the tolerance of clumsiness a bit less tight." She chuckled at her own comment, remembering how many plates had they lost because of accidents that had ocurrred for the past month.

Faith wiped the tears falling from her face and jumped when Blake was suddenly at her side. She turned her head, determined not to let anyone see her like this. That month was a very short one, but she wasn't going to get all emotional every time they turned around.

"I rather finish what I started back here." she choked out continuing cleaning the stove she was currently working on. It was one thing to let one of her co-workers see her like this. They knew what happened, but to be seen like this in front of customers was a shame. They wouldn't know what happened.

Linds nodded her head at Lor's words and closed the door behind her. She hummed a bit as she made he way over to the kitchen, trying to decide what she would have for dinner. She would dine alone as usual, but then again, she didn't really mind it.

As she walked into the kitchen, though, she has to stop short. Blake was in wayyy too good a mood to be working. She narrowed her eyes at him as usual and noticed that his clothes were a bit wet.
"What, did you trip and fall?" She joked, and then was slightly alarmed at herself for joking with him. Ahem.
Turning to Faith, she said, "Lorraine would like you to prepare a booth for her and Ms. Todd. Please get to that immediately and then continue to clean the stove."
And then she turned back to Blake. "And Blake--" She smiled in an evil way, but only briefly. "Since the Chef is out sick today, you will need to prepare the specialty of the day--Braised Halibut Provencal," She continued with a look. The boy could cook, right? Or else Lindsay might have to cook, and she certainly didn't want to get her hands dirty.

Faith turned around to face Lindsay, the tears were falling down her face, but she knew she'd have to face her manager. She didn't wipe the tears back, she had soapy hands from scrubbing the stove clean. She nodded her head, "Yes ma'am. Let me dry this quickly." she choked out before turning to dry the stove with a dry towel.

Once the stove and her hands were free of water, Faith wiped her face clean of painful tears with her apron and went to the front of the cafe. She quickly set a booth up in record time and found herself in the back again. "Is there anything else I can help with?" she asked, "Prepping food maybe?" she asked, she didn't want to work out in the open right now, not until she got her emotions in check.

As Lindsay watched Blake, she heard Faith come back wayy before she expected her to. "Um, yes, I guess you can help Blake prepare the main dish. I doubt he knows how to cook," She said with a chuckle as she turned back to him. Pity, she had wanted to see him falter under pressure. Why was she so mean? Cause.

Faith grinned, "It's alright." She paused, wondering if she should say the next comment or not. "I had to teach Seth how to cook." She said biting her lip. She moved to get things started but moved back towards Lindsay. "I'm sorry that I'm so emotional..." she trailed, she definitely wasn't like her usual self after Seth passed.

Yusrieee · 02-26-2010, 10:55 PM

Blake couldn't believe his eyes. Tears were streaming down Faith's cheeks and he was just staring at her, doing nothing while his mouth hung open. He was aware that the past few months were tough for her but still, it was a bit shocking and disheartening to see her cry. Girls shouldn't cry, at least not in front of him. It's weird but crying makes his heart flutter but that's a different kind of flutter and not the happy, lovey dovey flutter one gets on seeing his or her crush. "Umm okay, if you say so." He said timidly and turned around to leave, however someone stopped him.

He made a not-so-nice face when Lindsay noticed that he was wet. "Of course not. I peeped my pants." He said like it was oh so obvious and smirked. Rolling his eyes very slightly, he folded his arms and silently listened to the conversation between the manager and Faith. He couldn't help but notice the tears in her eyes. She should really stop. But Lindsay's next words made him choke. Braised Halibuuu--WHAT! He had no idea what this stuff was. Actually, he didn't like eating fancy food and the name of this Halibu screamed FANCY! "I can't cook!" Blake moaned and looked at his manager in disbelief. Is she crazy or what? He never said he could cook apart from frying eggs, boiling water or making french fries. "She's cooking and I'm helping or whatever." He dropped the cloth he was holding on the counter and shook his head. Cooking? Is she serious!?

Linds noticed the tears in her eyes--oh greaaaaaat. She just HAD to get the soppy, crying employee. She was never good at comforting people, but she felt like she couldn't jsut ignore her. "Erm, it's...alright. Um, yes, if you just help...Blake here....ahem," She said looking from Blake to Faith and then back to Blake again. She eve patted her slightly, hoping she would take it as a nice gesture. But that's as afar as she would go.

Linds noticed his face and was about to say something nasty when he joked about his wetness. She laughed but then wuickly stopped, horrified that she ahd actually laughed at Blake Wright's joke. Oh, God help her. She was wuite please when he freaked out about the dish, though. Yes, that brought a smile to her lips, one she didn't hide.
"Fine, but if I see you listening to your iPod one more time--yes, I know you have one--then you're cooking!" She added with a fierce tone and then went outside to check that the booth looked nice. Coming back into the kitchen, she leaned on the counter and waited for the 'show'. Hehe, Blake cooking. This ought to be fun.

Faith nodded her head once and turned to go get the food to prep for Blake to attempt cooking. She let out a loud booming laugh at the thought, something she hadn't done for over a month. Blake cooking? What a disaster. Faith gathered all the food and set everything out on the counters. She stood back and watched Blake get ready to cook, she had done all the prepping, now it was up to him.

Yusrieee · 02-27-2010, 07:41 PM

She knew he had an iPod? What is she, a three eyed monster? Letting out an exasperated sigh, Blake washed his hands and then wiped them on his apron. He could surely cook, right? It can't be hard. You just have cut some veggies and toss them around in a pan. See? Easy. "Anything for Helena." He hissed under his breath as he looked from Lindsay to Faith and then back to boss lady. Flailing his arms, he gave in. "Fine. I'll...cook." He could never agree on not using his iPod at work, it's the only thing that keeps him sane and also Helena, now that she's here.

So how do we go about cooking this Halibut, eh? "Do I get a recipe book?" He muttered to no one in particular as he twiddled with the stove's knob.

Faith rolled her eyes as she leaned against the counter as she began folding dish towels. "The cookbooks are over there on the shelves." Faith said pointint to the shelves on the otherside of the kitchen. She really hoped he wouldn't complain about that too, but then again, she did. Helena seemed to like to mess with Blake.

"Nick why don't you believe me!?" Chris asked his little brother. They were now back in his apatrment and Chris was trying to explain to Nick that he had saw Melinda, and that she was alive.

"I understand Chris. You maybe thinking you saw Mel, maybe she looked like Melinda and all but she is dead. Jade told you soooo." Nick told Chris. Gosh!!! He was only twelve! Dealing with this stuff shouldn't be up to him. "Let me see your cell phone." Nick said.

"I did see Melinda! It was her. I'm not going mental it all makes sense! No you can not see my cellphone." Chris said. God! The only person that would believe him was Lena...

"Fine." Nick said calmly he jumped onto Chris's lap-as he was sitting down-and dug deep into one of his pockets. Chris tried to get him off and he did but not before Nick had grabbed him cellphone. Nick ran into the bathroom and locked it. He only had a few minutes before Chris would realize he could open the lock with magic....

Nick scrolled through Chris's phonebook. Who to calllll? Mike? No way! Mum and Dad??? Maybe but they were still back at hommme. Lena??? Perfect. He scrolled down to her name and clicked the call button and put the phone up to his ear. Nick was lucky that Chris wasn't even trying to come after him. He figured he was just calling Mum and Dad or someone....

LaFresita · 03-01-2010, 08:33 PM

Helena was grumbling as she was convinced her curls weren't as curly as they should be.... grrrr.... she felt her phone go off in her pocket and sighed before pulling it out. 'Chris'??? Gulp. Lena flipped the phone open, wondering why on earth he'd want to talk to her twice in one day and said, Hello?

stan lanevski · 03-01-2010, 09:37 PM

Nick sat down on the bathroom floor listening to the phone ringing. C'mon Lena pick up! She wasn't mad at Chris or anything righhhht! 'Cause if she was then duh....she wouldn't pick up the phone....But it wasn't long until Nick heard Lena's voice. Hehe! Yes! "Hi Lena, it's Nick." He said though trying to keep his voice low enough so Chris did not hear him....."Is this a bad time?" God he hoped it wasn't! He was freaking out over here! Chris was realllllly starting to scare him....Lena would understand right????

LaFresita · 03-01-2010, 10:06 PM

Lena was surprised when the voice on the phone wasn't Chris's at all - in fact, if Nick hadn't identified himself, she probably wouldn't have realized it was him! He had scarcely talked in front of her before. His tone now, however, worried her. No, it's fine - what's wrong? she asked, turning and sitting on her bathroom counter biting her lip.

stan lanevski · 03-01-2010, 10:49 PM

Nick gulped slightly. Geeeez! Lena already knew something was wrong before he had said anything...goshhhhh was she some kind of witch??? Well nevermind that...of course she was but whatever!!!! "Ummm welll." He said started slowly before thinking back to Chris, he grimaced slightly. "Chris issss realllly scaring me! Like a lot! I would have called somebody else but you know Mike...and Mum and Dad are back home...." He trailed off slightly.

"He keeps saying he saw Melinda....And see mum and dad were afraid one day he might think this way...because they were so close. But that was awhile ago! And his just sitting here and keeps repeating to me that she's alive...." Nick's tone was clearly scared. He was thinking his brother was in some sort of mental break or something!!!!

LaFresita · 03-02-2010, 02:46 AM

Helena listened intently to what Nick was saying, but when he trailed off, she said quickly, What's the matter with him? Is he okay?? But then his voice became a bit stronger - but scared, too. Lena's face whitened in her mirror at his words, even though she had just witnessed what appeared to be what Chris was describing, but.... c'mon! It wasn't like it was actually Melinda. She was.... well, dead. Nick, she said slowly, I don't know if he told you the whole story, but I was with him earlier today and.... we did see someone. She did look like Melinda, but to say it was actually her.... Helena shook her head. I know it wasn't. It was just a weird coincidence, but because they were close, I don't know if he's thinking straight. She was back to speaking quickly again, quite aware that Chris probably didn't want Nick talking to her or he wouldn't be whispering.

stan lanevski · 03-02-2010, 03:07 AM

Nick listend as Helena explained that she was also there and she had seen this person as well. "You try telling Chris that. He's being sooooo stubborn! Nothing is going to change his mind right now...." He said honestly. And it was true, Chris was set on this girl being Melinda. "But what am I suppose to do??? It's really freaking me out. I know his not trying to but his being weird and getting mad that I don't believe him." He said with a sigh. Should he just call his parents? But what would they do if they knew Chris was flipping out???

LaFresita · 03-02-2010, 08:32 PM

Helena was doing some quick thinking but nothing useful was coming to mind. Aaaaaaaaaah! What was she supposed to do?? Think! Think!!!! Chris was probably rambling on to his brother by now.... Nick, through all this nonsense he's spewing out, has he said anything about what he actually plans on doing about it?? She asked quickly.

stan lanevski · 03-02-2010, 08:49 PM

Errrr had Chris??? Nick thought about Lena's next question. "Welllllll." He started not really know but then wait!!! Yes! Yes he had! In allll the weird stuff his brother had been saying he did mention what he wanted to do..."Welllll first he wants to go to France to find Mel's evil grandmother. He said this was all her fault and he wanted to try to figure out more about this....I think that's what he said. It was hard to tell because he doesn't stay on one thought for very long before going off on something total different." He said to Helena trying to explain what was going on with Chris. But it was hard to explain it!!!
