Chapter 6

Katie pov

After much grumbling, I decided to just sit and observe passersby without saying anything to the woman sitting next to me since I didn't want to give her the gratification of me talking to her.

I'm not sure how long we drove before coming to a stop in front of a very large gate; the car with some of her bodyguards at the front drove in before we followed suit.

They ran over as soon as we stopped, opening the car doors for both of us. She got out, but I sat down and stared at the black chair in front of me. Before turning around and approaching the car to question me, she had already taken a few steps.

"Have you not gotten tired of the commotion and fuss you have been creating since? You had better drop if you don't want to be dragged in by them". She then turned around and walked away.

She immediately departed, and when I landed the intimidating gigantic man holding the door was staring at me as if he were going to eat me if I didn't move.

I was moving too quickly to take in my surroundings because I wanted to go inside and away from all of these intimidating-looking males.

As soon as I entered the house, I was in awe. I stood there drooling before I spotted a woman. She appeared to be quite nice, so I grinned and waved to her.

"You can leave at this moment, but before you do, go retrieve your dinner from the kitchen; I'm sorry I couldn't bring it over for you guys". She told the intimidating men.

"No problem auntie, you already cooked, that's enough for us," Before taking the food and departing, they said.

I watched her come towards me awkwardly, unsure of what to do because I couldn't see the woman who had abducted me from my house.

She called my attention to her and said, "Am sure you love what you see."

Before I heard her laughing, I apologetically muttered, "Uhn sorry miss I wasn't paying attention," with my head lowered.

"Awn… So adorable, you don't have to be too formal with me; just call me Maria" she continued while grinning.

"No, I can't call you that because you are older than my mother; instead, I'll call you auntie, as the scary big guys did." She looks nice, I said as I smiled at her.

"Ok no problem you can call me whatever you want to call me, why don't you get settled in while I prepare dinner is almost dinner time"

I responded to her pouting, giving her puppy eyes, "No let me help you in the kitchen first."

"We can do that tomorrow, but for now, go relax; I'll come to get you when I'm done. You look extremely exhausted".

She opened the door for me as she led me up the stairs to a room at the far end of the building that faced another room and pointed to the one on the left, indicating that it was my room.

Looking around the room, I exclaimed, "Wow, isn't this too big for just one person?" I'm sure it's comparable to my room, the kitchen, and my Dad's room together.

She said, "Yeah, I know, but the room is just for you, okay, I'll let you relax and call you for dinner, just shower and get ready ok," and she walked out.

I peered around and saw a large bed with a white sheet covering it, six pillows, a study table, and two doors. Curiosity getting the better of me, I opened the first door and saw a long table in the center with hangers on each side and shoe racks. I exclaimed, "Oh my God this place is so big just for clothes," and I could see the bag I had packed before they had me lying on the ground. I pulled out one of my large shirts and sweatpants after a thorough check.

I went through the second door. The bathroom was all white and immaculate. If she hadn't taken me, I would have wanted to remain here forever. There was cotton covering the bathtub, mirror, and shower, among other things. I quickly took my clothes off and headed straight for the bathtub. I attempted on the water but was unsuccessful. I stepped outside, took one of the large towels, tied it over me, and was about to go because I couldn't afford to pay if I damaged it. before someone entered the room.

All she said was, "Come see how it works." Before entering the restroom, she started by demonstrating to me how the a/c works, how to open the while lying in bed, and a few other things.

When I realized she was still wearing her suit, I kept silent and followed her around like a lost puppy. She must have shown me how to use everything in the restroom since the cool part was that the water had different temps.

I answered, grinning, "Thank you". While leaving, she did not comment. The bathroom is at least completely mine. I chose a body wash container after having the bathtub half-filled with water. I noticed it was frothing. Afterward, I entered.

I noticed that I was about to fall asleep when I decided to wash myself, come out after I was through, and go to sleep. I don't think I had any of my cosmetics with me.

Just a few minutes had passed since I had last slept when I felt someone shake me and tell me to wake up.

All I replied was "No, I want to sleep" before once more covering myself.

The speaker calmly questioned, "Don't you want to eat?"

I responded, "No, I want to sleep," but before I knew it, I was tickled.

"Stop, stop, stop!" Stop!!!..." As soon as I realized it was Auntie, I started giggling, and when she stopped, I pouted.

She replied, "Stand up, let's go so you can eat. I tried to wake you up, but you refused to wake up" I'm still pouting, but I got up and followed her out.

As soon as I entered the dining room, I saw a woman already seated and eating. Since my food had alread

y been served, I took a seat at the far end and began eating.
