"Don't worry.." I say, getting up off the chair and walking around him on my way out, my scarf running through his fingers lightly until it s...

My parents are aware via the text i sent my mom on my way here, that i am coming over, so they are waiting for me by the front door when i finally arrive at the Manor.
As soon as the car comes to a stop, Paul comes up to my side of the car to open the door.
"Thank you." i say, wrapping my arms around myself in a protective and self-comforting manner, as i step out of the vehicle.
"Do you need me to wait for you?" he asks, just as my mother reaches us.
"Awww, sweetheart, are you ok?" she asks, hugging me.
"Yeah.....i'm great, just a little.......shocked to be honest, it's crazy, it's almost laughable" i chuckle dryly, running my fingers through my hair, as i recall what just happened a few minutes prior.
"Do you need me to wait for you?" Paul asks again. He is obviously in a hurry to be somewhere else.
"Sorry, uhm, no..i'll...."
"Well, hello there" Mom murmurs, interrupting me, while looking at Paul.
"Mom this is Paul. He works with Aaron" i say.
"Oh, I know, i have seen you with the Bishops quite a few times......are you now providing security for my daughter?" she asks curiously.
"Yes." he replies singularly.
"Well, how thoughtful of Aaron to have one of his best and trusted men looking after my daughter" she replies and i roll my eyes at her.
"Is there anything else you will need from me?" Paul asks me.
"No, that will be all for tonight..thank you for your service." Mom responds, before i can speak and Paul nods.
"Alright...I'll see you in the morning" he replies and gets into the car without waiting for a response and immediately drives away.
"Thank you for your service?"
"What?" Mom asks when i glare at her.
"Ahhh...!!" I groan and turn around.
"What?"
"This is not the military...it just sounded...rude."
"Oh, it was not...my daughter is a prominent figure now, with armed personal security...." she says sarcastically.
"......Mind you, it's not the daughter i expected to be in this position, so please, allow me to ........adjust to the new terminologies and lifestyles." she murmurs animated and we both chuckle.
"Eva and Gemma have been aspiring for fame, but as yet, it has eluded them, you on the other hand, you don't like to be in the spotlight, and Angela and Mecedes prefer the background, away from any unnecessary attention." she says suddenly.
"Fair assessment...but what's your point." i ask.
"You will see." she says, ushering me towards the house.
