Click that STAR to VOTE 👏
"I got there," I said into the phone speaker as I looked around the house, the mansion. It was built high, sitting on the side of a mountain, surrounded by a gate and roses.
I counted some men in the front yard, and there were twelve of them. Four were sitting around a table playing games of ludu. Two were standing behind the game. The others were busy smoking and talking. They all were wearing black and heavily armed with guns, strapped like soldiers.
"Careful around those brats, okay babe?"
"Okay, Brie," I said simply, still staring in awe; I then hung up the phone.
I looked up towards the entrance of the house, and a big bodyguard stood there, and I swallowed.
Something is wrong
I stepped inside And waved around to them; they stopped what they were doing and nodded at me.
I pushed Rollins towards the door, but an elderly cook walked out and smiled at me.
"Good afternoon, dear; wow, you are more beautiful in person."
"Good afternoon, madam; what do you mean I look better in person?"
"We got a picture of you earlier about your arrival. Don't mind the guards. Usually, they were just two, but something happened at the hospital, I heard. I am so happy that I have somebody here young to talk to, I can't stop talking. Oh my god, am so full of dough." She grunted and walked back inside.
Rollins looked up at me and laughed, and I couldn't help but smile.
"I can't wait until you are well to show me around; come on, let's get you inside."
"I can still show you, but not today. I am tired, and I want my dad," He muttered, and my heart melted.
"He'll be here soon," I respond to make myself feel better.
Questions swirled around in my mind, but they were too jumbled together; I could hardly hear what my mind was saying. Sweat burst on my forehead as I try to keep calm.
"Rollins, please direct me to your room. I'll lay you down and I will lend you my phone so that you can watch whatever cartoons you want to watch. I need some water to drink."
"Okay, that one," He pointed and I looked around the hall. Expensive shouts in my face. Gleaming gold and silver chandeliers swirl in the ceiling. The cold breeze of the Air Conditioner welcomes my warm skin.
I stood there and looked around. Dark Blue sofas and Brown sofas. Eight sofas sat in a circle in the center far across the room that leads upstairs. Behind the sofa, I could see through a thin glass door; looking outside, coconut and palm trees bent and bowed to each other.
Pictures of the sea, mountains, and tigers hang on the walls. About four doors lead to different parts of the house.
"Upstairs doesn't have much," Rollins's voice snapped me back to reality.
"What does it look like up there?"
"It looks like down here, it has a bar and a huge pool," He said trying to show me how huge the pool is with his arms. My eyes popped and my mouth opened.
"Well, boy, you are living like a king." I have never seen so much luxury, not even in movies, and I have watched a lot of movies.
"I will enjoy it more when you are here." He said turning his head to look at me and end up wincing.
"Shhh, it's okay. Don't move too much," I pushed the wheelchair towards the room and opened it. I found myself standing in a passageway of six doors.
"These are all bedrooms; the last one is Dad's office. Enter that one," He said pointing to the front one. I turned the lock and pushed it open. I realized I was standing before two doors again.
"That one is mine, right beside Dad's."
"Oh," Was all I could say; my eyes had been drinking the place that I forgot how thirsty I was.
"So let me lift you," I said laying him down on the bed. I put off the wheelchair to the left of his room, and unlock my phone. I opened YouTube and gave it to him.
He fondled it and I realized he didn't know how to use it. He pouted and I smiled.
"It's okay."
"But I know how to use Dad's own," He folds his arm and wince again.
"Folding your arms is one of the defenses; be careful not to fold them too much now. Here you go," I handed over the phone and kissed him on the forehead. He froze, and I noticed I shouldn't have, but I smiled and left the room.
I walked back to the hall and walked over to the glass doors. Touching it, I leaned my forehead on it and looked outside.
wow
"You can go and take a look if you want," A voice startled me. I turn around to see a tall built figure. A pair of black eyes, a pointed nose, and a not-so-thin pinkish lip.Tan skin, chin strap beard, and a pair of elf ears. I stood there soaking in his appearance. Dresses in a causal white Cuban shirt and shorts.
"Hello?" He waves a hand in front of my face.
"Sorry," I really need to go out more often. Greek Gods have been living on earth, and I didn't even know about it.
"My bad. My name is Kevin. Kevin Tarrant," He offered an open palm and I shook it with my eyebrows knitted together in confusion.
"Yeah?"
"Trevor's cousin," He said and flashed a smile.
Oh wow
"Oh, The name is Jessica, nice to meet you."
Right, it's a pleasure.
"Mhmm, I came here with my girlfriend. I heard Trevor got some run-ins with the devil's of management. I heard about what happened at the hospital," He said, clapping his hands together, which shook the awkward fact that he had just mentioned his girlfriend even when she didn't need to be mentioned; what a man. At least someone is loyal.
I cleared my throat, turned walked over to a sofa, and sat down.
"Sorry for glaring, I just am not—"I stuttered, and he laughed.
"It's okay, I get it. Well, well, the place looks great. I haven't been here in a while."
"Pamela!" He shouted toward the kitchen.
"Yes!" The cook at the door came out of a room with water dripping from her hands. Her mouth fell open in shock and was instantly replaced with a smile.
"My god, Kevin, you are here," She said, going over to him and holding her wet hand away. She hugged him, and he patted her on the back.
"Jess dear, this is the nicest man you can meet on planet Earth," She said with all her teeth, and I laughed.
"Sorry, how did you know what to call me?"
"Rollins," she said and winked. "No, joke, though I would marry you if I wasn't taken; where is your honey? Did you leave her? Nicky?!"
"I left Nicky behind Pamela. This traveling is all business. I'm going to check on my man Rollins and then am going to hunt Trevor down, pray to God that I don't find him to knock some sense in him," And with that, he left.
"What for though ?" I asked Pamela and for the first time, she was serious. She rushed a turn around almost falling.
"I need to hum— to find —water. I mean; I need to get cooking for the men at the gate," She runs to the kitchen and slams the door.
