As the time came for her transformation, Cassandra walked over to her cake. She was ready.
As her friends and family cheered her on, Cassandra completed her transformation.
Cassandra was now an elder.
As Cassandra celebrated the excitement of her transformation into elderhood, Nina couldn't help causing some excitement of her own. She never had forgiven Darren for the way he had talked to her...how he had upset her...when she was pregnant with Donna. How dare he talk to her that way! And her with child too! It hadn't been her fault Don and Cassandra were having problems. "Well...you're looking old these days, aren't you old man?" Nina said to Darren. Sandy Brudy looked at her friend Nina in silence. Sometimes she just didn't understand how Nina could be so cruel.
Darren had to force himself to just walk away. It wasn't worth it. This was Cassandra's party, and he wasn't going to let Nina ruin it for her...or for him.
Darren brought his adopted son (Donald) over with him for the party. Donald's biological dad was none other than Don Lothario. Don had had an affair with Kaylynn Langerak while still married to Cassandra. Donald was born as a result of that affair, and was the only son that Don had. When Kaylynn died, Darren had adopted Donald and raised him as his very own son. Cassandra now knew the entire, sordid story...as probably everyone in Pleasantview did by now!
Donald had overheard Nina's uncalled-for remark. He was heading towards her when Darren said, "No Donald. It's a long story. It's not worth it. Let it go." Donald decided to respect his father's wishes...at least for now.
Angela was glad she had come. She felt as though she were still part of the family. Really, besides Lileth and her family, this was the only family she had now! She wanted Alex to be proud of the fact that he was a part of the Goth family.
There was no question that Alexander Goth was Alex's father. Alex had grown up to look very much as his father had looked. But...if the truth be known...unfortunately Alex had not necessarily inherited the best genes from each of his parents. True...he had inherited his father's dark, thick hair. But he had also inherited his poor eyesight...and worst of all...Alex had inherited the Pleasant nose from his mother. Not very pleasant!
Well...at least as a Goth he will have plenty of money for all that plastic surgery he is going to need.
Was that mean of me to say???
