Oxford, please be nice!
His cousin Jackson was waiting for him downstairs with Mrs. Branden, his nanny who took care of him since he was a child. Mrs. Branden was just like a mother to him. She was always there for him even when his parents were too busy to spend time with him. Adrian knew his parents wanted the best for him but in some way they denied him of their attention.
Mrs. Branden was black woman in her early forties from Chicago, she was tall with brown eyes and a skin that won't get darker no matter how much she works. She took care of him like a son and for that he loved her like a mother.
Jackson Brooks, his cousin was a graduate from the city's university he was now a big man with no worries of school, graduating with a second class upper in accounting Adrian knew that his cousin was going introduced to the Brooks' business world soon, where he didn't want to go to at all.
His cousin wasn't a friend to him at all he was another Brooks to him, one with so much arrogance and despise, he always wondered what happened to Jackson to hate him this much.
"Good morning Mrs. Braden" he greeted.
"Hey Jackson".
"You are finally leaving, isn't that cool Mr. Adrian" asked Jackson. Who was looking at the window.
"Is that how much you despise me, brother ?"
Adrian was shocked with his cousin's behavior.
"I don't know "Jackson replied without looking at him.
Adrian moved closed to Mrs. Branden holding her hand "am leaving mother take care of yourself, also my parents".
"I miss you so much".
"Am going to Miss you too, I will try visiting when I can."
"Hmph" Jackson gave a smirk.
Adrian went to the car, he couldn't imagine that his dad won't see him off even on this last day. At the airport Adrian already knew that a private jet was waiting for him, he wanted to New York immediately.
The plane arrived at the airport in London, it's was a great relief for Adrian finally he left New York and his parents. Adrian would have loved New York if not for his parents who irritated him, they won't allow him to go out nor spend time with him. He needed this break from them to discover his self.
London was cool for Adrian, A black Bentley drove to where he was. An old man who was dressed in suit came out from the driver side, he took his luggages and put them in the boot. He opened the door at the back for a Adrian.
"Welcome to Oxford sir"
"Thank you and you are..."
"Mr. Johnson" he bowed. "am going to be you new driver from now on".
Mr. Johnson was now his new driver since he was new in the city he decided to keep him till further notice.
Two hours later, the car stopped in front of a building. Adrian came down from the car to view his new apartment.
The House was a beautiful white house decorated with flowers from the gate to the middle of the compound.
He walked to the door and rang the bell.
A woman came out with an apron on, she didn't seem surprise seeing him. she spoke with an Spanish accent.
"welcome to Oxford sir, am Isabel your new cook".
"Thank you Isabel".
The living room was decorated with furnitures, a huge sofa laid at the corner backing the wall.There was a television set and a vase of flower on the table.
Besides the kitchen door was a stairs that lead to four bedrooms. he wondered why his dad bought the whole masion or where they planning to come visit...
"No way.... I won't take that not for once" Adrian said with a frown.
Adrian's room matched his taste, Mrs Braden was the one who suggested the color and furnitures of his room.Quickly arranged his stuff and clothes properly.
The phone rang
He picked his phone and swiped the green bottom
"Hey Adrian" cherry"shouted at the other end.
" what's up cherry how are you doing" replied Adrian.
"You didn't care to call us when you got here, is that fair Mr. Brooks?" cherry asked.
"You have to understand I was too tired that's why, hope you guys are fine??"
"Are we going to hangout today?"
"No we are mad at you cherry mumbled"
" Sure Buddy I missed you" Jerry said happily.
" You don't have to be so mad cherry, I will make it up to you two ok?"
"Okay then" cherry relied.
The call ended.
Adrian felt this was his new home he has to adjust to this new beautiful city of his.
The next morning , Mr. Johnson drove him to school he waited in front of a building the twins shouldn't keep him waiting here he needed to meet up with his dad's friend before attending his class.
Hahaha....
A loud laughter ran from the second floor of the building to last. Adrian wondered who was so stupid to laugh way that.
An average height blonde came down from the stairs she tried to caught up with her friend, she was still laughing when she mistakenly pushed Adrian at the back he was really mad at her but he didn't show it.
"Sorry I didn't see you there said the blonde."
"How on Earth will she see me when she is playing around like a kid!" Adrian thought to himself giving her a facial expressions.
"At least I said sorry, is my apology accepted?"
Without answering her he narrowed his eyes slightly as they darted back and forth between the most important people in his life. He gazed at the twins cherry and Jerry.
Cherry was the first to see him and she waved at him, he left immediately to meet his friends
"You started making friends already Adrian" cherry pursued her lips and huffed.
"No, not at all" came a quiet reply.
"I didn't know you love blondes, I mean we didn't notice it all this years" Jerry teased.
"Really guy?, do we have to do this now? By the way the girl is a nuisance, I didn't look at her face" Adrian smiled.
"Okay, guys we need to be in class on time, I don't want us miss out".
The two boys laughed.
