CHAPTER 12

1298 Words
I'm on my way home, and I left Crisha with Simon and I know she's perfectly fine being alone with him though, that b***h was even happy when I bid them goodbye, I noticed that the guy named Simon wasn't a bit comfortable when he saw me stood up. I leaned my head back and closed my eyes, I was sitting in the backseat since my dad won't let me drive on my own 'cause I'm a minor. I caught my driver checking on me at the back then he immediately averted his eyes when he saw me looking at him. I wonder what makes him choose this kind of job, I mean don't get me wrong, it's just that he looks like he's an educated one, especially when he looks young and well, he looks good. I can say but not my type. I don't actually know how long he has been working as a driver since I don't really pay that much attention to my father's men, his workers. So I didn't notice some changes so as this one. I looked outside of the window, I could see my vouge reflection on it. I was wearing a plain white camisole top that paired with my high-waisted maroon jeans. I once look in front again and I caught him looking at me through the rear view mirror, my forehead furrowed, what the hell is he doing?! " Hey! why are you looking at me? you're driving for God's sake! if you're planning to die then spare me, or I'll tell Dad to fire you instead?!" I burst out. His eyes widen as he focuses his eyes on the road. After that closed my eyes 'cause I felt a little bit drowsy. I badly need my bed right now. When the car finally entered the huge gate and parked on the wide pathway in front of our mansion, I didn't wait for the driver to open the for me, I can do it myself though. When I got out of the car, my phone vibrated and I receive a text from my crazy best friend. I almost roll my eyes when I read her message, she says she'll go with that guy on a date next time. " Ahm, young lady?" I put my phone in my bag before I look up. I'm still standing here and I didn't notice that he's still here, why he's still standing right in front of me anyway? " What are you still doing here?'' I asked. he could have parked the car properly on the wide space garage. I saw him scratch the back of his nape. Then he looked at me apologetically "Uhm, about earlier. I'm sorry for that young lady," He muttered, I just nodded. " Alright," I said and was about to turn my back on him 'cause I really want to dive into a soft bed right now but I stopped and looked at him. ''By the way, what's your name?" I asked. I saw his ears reddened as his eyes delighted. Okay? what's interesting about my question? I raised my eyebrow at him when he suddenly smile. " Shawn Mid, at your service young lady," he happily Introduces himself. "Okay," I nodded before I finally turned my back on him. I went straight to my room and decided to take a nap. Mom will be home tomorrow and Dad wasn't here, probably he'll be home late, as usual. I grab my laptop, I once again tried to search if ever he has an IG account or something but I got none, I set aside my laptop and frustratingly lay my back on the bed. That man completely leaves me curious about him, well, just like psychology says serious men are something good subject for interest. Instead of taking a nap, I end up reading some of the books which I had already read over and over again, but I like those that's why re-reading them still excites me and if we let ourselves be exposed to something that interests us for the second time then we could understand in thoroughly than the first time. A couple of minutes after I get up from my bed and took a quick shower, I grab my DSLR camera and stormed out of my room. Let's kill some time. I checked my watch, it was 4 pm. I strode down the stairs and went to the kitchen to grab an orange from the fridge. I go straight to the main double door of our mansion and made my way out while holding an orange in my hand while the other one is carrying my camera. The garden was quiet and I was busy taking shots just like I always do whenever I want to. I like taking photos of different animals too, from small to big different creatures, I don't have favoritism when it comes to that, I like them all that's why my DSLR camera is the thing that I will never forget whenever I go somewhere and even school is not the exemption. " Young lady, do you want something to eat or perhaps a drink?" I looked to my right side where I see my Melinda standing a few steps away from me. " No," I answered shortly and turned my back on her, " Oh, alright young lady, but if you want, there are brownies on the fridge I baked just this afternoon."She said and that makes me look at her. Well, something Iike about Melinda is that she's good at making brownies, ''Ohh,? you make some? " I asked her. She nodded at me with a sly smile. she seldom bakes some brownies though, mom figure out that I like eating those and she told Melinda not to bake it often. Mom is really exaggerating about the food I take, she says to avoid sweets 'cause I might ruin my body figure, she's still determined to make me enter the modeling industry just like her. ''Come on, I want some" I said and walk past her Mom is not here, great. When we reached the kitchen I immediately sat on the chair while waiting for Melinda to serve me the brownies that I haven't tasted for a quite while now. ''You baked this because you know that Mom is not around?" I asked her and began to eat the brownies on my plate. She looked at me and I caught her blushing. "Uhmm, your Dad's secretary-- I cut what she was about to say, "Which one? Brandon?" I asked, he's often here though, he's my dad's trusted and long-term secretary. " Yes, young lady and he was with sir Engr. Viel,'' she added and her face was flushed which made me stop munching my brownies "Wait? what do you mean? he went here with Brandon?!" I asked her with a wide gaze. ''Yes, young lady but it seems they're in a hurry they just pass by for something, Brandon just get files on your dad's office" she said. I defeatedly massage my temple, I shouldn't have followed Crisha to the coffeehouse, I puffed a breath, I've heard from Dad before that their main business is based in Seattle WA. so surely he won't visit Austin if it's not related to business, and I heard him with Dad last time that his team will begin the pro ct one of these days if the needed materials are set, it simply means that he'll fly back to Seattle and I won't see him here anymore. I really want to know more about that frosty man, I think I'm attracted to him, he's like a walking greek God in the flesh! and I was stuck in his charm.
