Hello beautiful people! I am back with yet another chapter. 

Emily’s POV:

      It was almost 5 in the evening when we reached New Haven.  We got down and collected our luggage.

We were walking out.

“Emily,  you said that dad’s gonna come to pick us up. Where’s he?” James asked.

“I don’t know,  maybe he’s………. Oh wait there he is”, I pointed to him as he and my step mom came.

“Remember James be nice no matter what you think, understand?” I whispered to him.

“Ahh fine.”

“Emily,  James good to see you both”, my dad said as though we were some strangers.

“Hey dad”, James greeted him while I just nodded my head.

“Emily, James it’s so good to finally meet you both”, my step-mother- Sarah said in her oh-so-sweet-voice and hugged us.

“You too Sarah”, this time it was me who greeted her back.

“Come on , let’s go car’s outside”

As we walked outside we found a Ford F-150 parked there. I and James exchanged a look.

I knew that dad was rich, but still did he have to showcase all of his wealth like this?

We got into the car and we left the airport.  

New Haven is such a beautiful city, with trees on the roadsides and fresh air.  Since it was May so the temperature was typically hot. The streets seemed busy with working people and shops. The city seemed so lively. I already started falling in love with this city.

The drive was about 30 mins from airport to the house.

The house looked big (not bungalow big) and posh.

Dad and Sarah guided us in and I took in every detail of the house.  The house was huge no doubt but it still felt warm and homely.

“Come I will show you both to your rooms”, Sarah took us to a corridor where 7 doors were situated little further from each other.

She showed us to our rooms , James room was two doors away from mine .

“You both freshen up and come down”, with that she left.

My room looked simple yet elegant. The walls were of pink color,  a double bed was placed in the middle,  a study desk in one corner of the room, there were glass doors and a back balcony from where I could see the beautiful sunset. The wardrobe looked spacious enough to fit clothes and accessories of two person.  There was a washroom connected to room , it had a round mirror,  a bathtub and a shower. Overall my room was perfect,  I loved it.

“Your room looks great”, I turn around to find James sitting on my bed.

“Yea.  How does yours look?”

“Nice, I like it.”

“Let’s head down.”

“Ok"

We entered into the living room my dad, Sarah ,a teen girl and a teen boy were sitting .

The girl looked around my age , she was tall ,skinny, short choppy hair and hazel colored eyes. In one word she was gorgeous.
