The Boy who stole her heart ✔

Chapter 2. Not a Pleasant Surprise!

Face your fears. Are you familiar with this concept? I mean it's easier said than done. It's not exactly fear more of a dread.

The drive to my father's house was not difficult. We live in the same state, just two hours journey. I did not knew he was living in the city. As much as I know him I thought he would be somewhere far off living in jungle area. But then again people change.

My mum and I live outside the city area, away from the prying eyes of the city life. It's not exactly a village but it resembles one. Even though it's not that developed I love everything about it. It was my mum's idea if living there, not moving. I can understand that knowing that my mother is a nature person. She loves flowers so much that we have so many varieties of them growing in our garden. The flowers I don't even know the names of. But if you ask she'll even give you their Latin name and what exactly they symbolise.

It's home. Cause it holds so many memories. Also I'm so glad that dad decided to give that to mom instead of taking it as well. I think the home comforts her.

I squint my eyes trying to read the board placed on the side of the road carefully. I twist my lips as it shows that I'm getting closer. Slowing down is not an option cause well speed limit. Take the turn I slow down after spotting the board that read Miller's Estate. I roll my eyes as the bold letters are craved and coloured in gold.

You can do this! I motivate myself as the big brown gates stare at me almost tauntingly. Releasing a huge breath I didn't know I was holding I speed up towards the house.

I frown as the gates won't open. I gasp at the sudden knock on my car's glass window. The muscular dude was staring at me like I stole his food. He was accessing my car and me. As much I wanted to roll my eyes I resisted.

"Ma'am may I know your name?" His voice was surprisingly low, like it didn't fit well with his strong demeanor. But hey don't judge the book by its cover.

"I am Sanyukta. Mr Miller is expecting me" I tried to give him a smile but failed. Well I think I failed because he didn't return it.

"Yes Ma'am. Just a minute I'll buzz you in." For the first time he smiled, showing his yellowish teeth. I nodded, not knowing what to do.

"Thanks"

"No problem Ma'am. And welcome to the residence."

I sighed as he signalled with his fingers to the guy who was sitting in the small booth that I failed to notice before. In a fraction of second the door was sliding open and he gave me a thumbs up.

In few seconds the gates were fully opened and I drove inside. As soon as I entered the doors were closed again. This is it! The final nail in coffin. Turning ahead I gasped looking at the building in front of me. With pale cream paint and red paint on roof it resembled something like a mansion.
