"Elle!" Stephanie exclaimed as she saw her friend after three months. "Oh My God, you're almost unrecognizable." She cried out, earning a stink eye from Chris. They had just arrived at the Orlando International Airport, Florida. Ellen as she has been looking these days, was haggard and lost. She had cried for some time on the plane and as much as Dr. Jenomiah tried to get the reason out, she just cried and remained mum in answering questions. Aaron sighed deeply disturbed, while Chris did his best to comfort Ellen. The Clarkes had taken the lead to the Reunion Resort, where they were joint-renting one of the vacation homes there. Chris, of course, decided to fly in with the Wilsons instead, so he could be with Ellen. Steph and her family came to pick them up from the airport. She had been playing in her head over and over again, how she was going to talk to Ellen and do her best to comfort her. She was absolutely broken when she found out from her brother, what Henry had done to the girl he swore he loved, no matter how many times she doubted him. She knew Henry was a player, a damn good one at that, but she never expected him to pull such a card from his sleeve. She refused to believe Kobby would stoop so low to do that. She saw how he looked at her, she couldn't have been wrong about that, Henry loved Ellen, or he was a great actor who deserved an Oscar. Like Ellen, she failed in trying to reach him or Clara, and that baffled her, especially Clara who couldn't have been part of this, could she? Stephanie cried like a newborn when she came to the realization that she had been right all along, Henry and the boys were just toying with Ellen. She was not wrong about them referring to her as a jewel back in Paris as well. She was so angry at herself that she allowed Henry fool her again, making her believe he loved Ellen when it was just a freaking challenge. In that month, one would think Steph was the one who's video came out or Henry dumped, again. She just felt extremely guilty and was very happy when she was told to fly to Florida for Christmas, as it was a vacation with the Wilsons. This was not the first time both families vacationed together, but this was the first time that their uncle Wilson had his wife and daughter with him after years of searching. Chris gave her a stink eye, because he had had a hard time consoling Ellen on the plane, and didn't want his sister to start the dam of tears again from Ellen with her emotions. Steph hugged her friend who cried in her arms for the second time today. Chris gave an exasperated sigh, and Elena ushered them to the awaiting van, brushing the showcase of emotions as a friendship reunion. "I'm so sorry Elle." Steph whispered before breaking the hug. They finally entered the van, and the ride from the airport to the resort was 25 minutes. Ellen had to pause her emotional rollercoaster and admire the villa the van just pulled in front of. They met a concierge who told them about the resort, showing them around.

Gym enthusiasts will certainly enjoy their own sauna and steam room on the first floor along with a fully equipped fitness room. What more could you need!? (Elena gasp at the rooms). There are six more bedrooms, two grandmasters, one master, and three suites each with their own ensuite bathroom. Three of these luxury bedrooms open out onto their private balcony, where you can enjoy amazing sunsets with the ones you love, or alone. You can also enjoy your oversized porch deck overlooking your private pool, and spa. This home is truly designed to serve eventful and amazing memory for the large family vacation of your dreams. Any questions please?" The concierge ended his tour with a bright smile and asked for any questions they might have. For the first time in a long while, Ellen had a better outlook with a dim smile. It was dim, but they could see it, and her father realized leaving Ghana was not a bad idea after all.
