A Moonlit Path To Love

Chapter 3: Settling.

Tricia's Point of view

I loved the scenic atmosphere in Seattle. Claras grandparents' place was quite far from the airport.

The sightseeing around the place made me forget what happened at the airport for quite some time.

After a long two hour drive we reached Clara's grandparents' place in Seattle. As soon as her granddad saw us,his face lit up and the old man walked as fast as he could to come and give his granddaughter a kiss on her forehead.

"My darling. Happy to see you here. You've made my day sweetie." He mumbled in his soft unique voice.

"Aww thank you grandpa "Clara says as she hugs him.

"Welcome home darlings" he said looking at me and Kay.

I was eagerly waiting for you guys for quite a long time sweethearts he said in his soft voice.

"Come inside.. I am really happy to see three cute little girls at my place. "Her granddad chuckled.

Claras grandparents had always been living lonely in Seattle and they were really happy to have us here.

They required a moral support and we required accommodation and therefore Claras mom came up with this idea.

Yes,we were going to live with Claras grandparents.

The three of us were greeted with a warm welcome by Claras grandma and then we had a small chit chat about our journey.

We had a few cupcakes specially baked by her grandma.

"Okay girls now get to rooms and relax." her grandma told.

"Sure grandma." Clara says.

"Thank you grandma "I say.

"Where are our rooms grandma? " Clara asks eagerly as she was dying to use the restroom.

"Girls all your respective rooms are upstairs. I hope you guys are okay with it. At this age climbing is really difficult for us kids." She says.

"Sure ma. That's absolutely fine. I say "and the three of us head upstairs.

All the three rooms were mediocre sized and were just one after another. I took the room in the middle and Kay took the room to my left.Clara took the remaining one.

We got inside and relaxed for sometime.

But no matter what I just couldn't take my mind off him and what he said.

It was more like I couldn't take my mind off about what Clara told about me and that guy.

Maybe he was the star i was destined to livr with or maybe not.

A part of me told me just shut up and stop being over dramatic and silly.

Another part of me always kept thinking about it.

And another part kept telling me to just chuck it.

I finally decided to take my mind off things.

I went in to take a shower in the warm water.

After a nice long shower, I got dressed up in a pink tshirt and a jegging.My hair was messy but I didn't mind that. I put on my all time favourite pink Clinique lipgloss and I headed towards Clara's room.

Clara was also neatly dressed and was lying on her bed and relaxing. She had always been a person with very poor stamina so no wonder. I sat with her waiting for Kay to come so that we could head down for dinner together.
