14- A new home

Sara's POV:

"So, here we are."

Aunt Ella asked me to look on her left side, as our taxi reached a place , where a beautiful big house was located. A large house, with gorgeous and beautiful lawn and garage.

"Get down. Let's go in."

We got out of the taxi and went to the entrance with a big gate in front of us. For me, this house was more like a castle. A beautiful castle.

"Come, come. Let me show you the house. Though I don't know what condition it will be in."

Aunt Ella was so excited to show me the house. What did she mean by not knowing the condition of house? Didn't she live here? A silly question appeared in my mind.

"Look, there is kitchen on the left,lounge on the right. Guest rooms at the back of the house."

She started showing me whole house as we got inside the house. The whole house was cleaned.

"Thank God, it's not in bad shape. Actually my son seldom allows maid to come."

Aunt Ella tried to explain the situation of house. Isn't his son just a kid?

"Now, come upstairs."

She, then, held my hand and took me upstairs. The house was really well furnished, airy, big and beautiful. But still, I wanted to go back to hostel as this house was located on the drive of half an hour. How I'm supposed to go to school? Well i will ask this question later.

"So, this is your room. I don't know whether it is clean or not. I did ask my son to do it, but you know how careless boys are. With you being here, i am rest assured."

She opened the room. It was a big, cleaned room with a big glass door window, facing the balcony. The room had attached dressing room and restroom. The bed was well prepared with light pink sheet on it. It did look like a room in castle. It was a dream room.

"Ahm... Sorry. It's not that prepared."

Aunt Ella apologized for something i couldn't believe.

"N-No, it's beautiful. It's beyond my imagination."

"Oh thank God, i thought you won't like it."

Aunt Ella seemed happy to hear that.

" You know what, this room used to be of my daughter, Diana. But she doesn't live here anymore. Ever since i got divorced with her father. Her father took Diana with him and let me keep my son."

"Oh I'm so sorry."

I could see she was hurt.

"Well it's okay. They often visited us. Well forget about it. So, my room is downstairs, though i won't be here and room in front of yours, is of my son. Since i won't be here, you could ask for help with anything."

She pointed towards the direction we just entered from. There was a room whose door was closed. Was his son big enough to help me? What did she mean by she won't be here? I thought i should ask this question.

"Aunt Ella! What do you mean by you won't be here? Where are you going?"

I quickly asked the question in my lower voice.

"Oh my, i forgot to tell you. Actually I don't live in this city. Since i am a working lady, i have to live and travel. So, this house is only for my son. He needed to carry on his school. So, he lives here."

She doesn't live here? What is going on? Why did she bring me to a place where i have to live alone with a kid. She said his son live here, alone. May be he is not so small. As i was talking to her, these thoughts kept popping in my mind.

"Oh! That's bad. I thought i will live here with you."

"Don't worry, dear. I will visit you often. Oh yes, i remembered. Since your school is a bit far from here, you can go there with my son."

She answered the question which i wanted to ask. His son can drive? I thought he is a kid i have to pamper. Looks like he is old enough.

Richard's POV:

"Stop right here."

I asked Robert to stop the car as i was following Sara and that elegant yet weird woman. They stopped in front of a big, large house, as big as my boss has. Then both of them stepped out. Why are they both here? Why did that lady brought Sara here? I was so confused.

"So, what now? What are we going to do here?"

Robert asked me as i was busy with my thoughts.

"Just keep your mouth shut.That's the only thing you have to do."

I suggested him as i was already so confused.

"Oh come on. How I'm supposed to do that? Like there is no restaurant here."

He immediately made a face, a shitty one.

"Are you a total idiot? It's just an hour ago, you ate the whole restaurant's food. And you are still hungry?"

I was completely shocked. Was he really human? How can he eat this much?

"An hour? No way. Its one hour, eleven minutes and ahm... yes... Four seconds, and now it's five, six."

"Shut up. Don't make me lose my temper."

I warned him not to disturb me again because of his damn hunger. That woman and Sara were now nowhere to be seen. I guessed they've entered the house, a big house. That area was a little weird to me. Just greenery here and there. A big house in the center. Nothing else. Why was Sara at such a remote place?

******************************

So, a house like a big castle? Don't you think a fairy tale is going on?

Will Sara be like a Cinderella or?
