Keep Me Out Of Control // Jenlisa

8: Mi Casa Es Tu Casa

Jennie got out of the bus, feeling more anxious than ever. She had to look down on her phone to check out the address. "Is this the right address?" Jennie asked in disbelief. The bus was parked in front of a big mansion and Jennie didn't believe that Lisa gave her the right address. If it was the right address, then that means Lisa does live here and she is extremely rich.

Jennie was in it for a big surprise.

"Yeah, it's the right address. Anything else miss?" The driver asked her and  Jennie rubbed her hands on her eyes, to make sure her vision wasn't blurry.

"No. Thank you." She told him and he drove off, leaving Jennie to face a new reality she hasn't experienced.

She approached the entrance gate and rang the bell, waiting for a response. After a couple of seconds, a voice spoke through the inter phone asking who it was and Jennie said her name. Moments later the gates opened, leading Jennie to a new world. She knew that the moment she stepped in, she was going to be part of Lisa's reality.

"What the actual...?" She asked herself looking around. It was as if she was in a new small city, where only a rich princess lived with her servants. But Lisa is the princess and not Jennie.

She noticed a pool at the far back, a party hall on the right side of the house, and the house was enormous. It was about 6 stories big and if the amount of windows that Jennie was counting, were right, that could mean that Lisa lived in a house with more than 10 bedrooms.

Jennie started to feel jealous towards Lisa. While Jennie has to work after school to help her parents secretly, Lisa is sleeping on a pile of money probably. How unfair is it that Jennie is the popular one while Lisa is made as the outsider? Jennie was imagining how people would have treated Lisa if they knew her family was rich. Lisa would have probably been popular.

Walking towards the front porch, Jennie knocked on the door twice. She presumed the person who spoke with her in the intercom, told Lisa she was there. Someone opened the door, and Jennie put on her most polite smile ever. "Welcome, Miss Jennie. You may come in." Jennie stepped inside the house and it smelled like paradise. "Miss Lisa is waiting for you at the study. If you follow me, I will lead you there."

"Thank you. If I went alone, I would probably get lost." Jennie joked but deep inside, she meant what she said. She would get lost and only be found after a couple of weeks.

"I'm James, by the way, if you need anything, you can call me." James told her and Jennie nodded her head. Lisa was living in heaven and she had her own angels doing everything for her. Jennie would have done anything just to give her family a day in Lisa's house. They would have loved it.

"...you have to clean the house better", Jennie was hearing, as James and her were approaching the study. She knew it was Lisa's voice and she seemed a little bit annoyed.

"Sorry to interrupt but Lisa, your guest is here." James said and Lisa stood up from her comfy chair behind her desk. Jennie eyed her head to toe, surprised at how she looked. Lisa looked like the head of the house, with her reading glasses on, her hair in a neat ponytail, and a black dress with straps.

"Thank you. Amelia, we will talk later. You guys may go, I will work with Jennie in the mean time." Lisa told them and they left, with James closing the door behind him. Jennie felt awkward standing at the entrance, not knowing whether to sit down or not. "You may sit down, you silly."

"Yeah, of course. Thank you." Jennie said to her and looked around the study, It was spacious as well, with shelves filled with books; the table Jennie was sat at, held 8 chairs and it seemed to be used to meetings, as there were portraits of Lisa around the room. "You have a nice house."
