Love is a Drug

Chapter 3

The train rattled as it zoomed past country to city to village. Lisa did not lean her head on the window as her experience of that was not great.

She decided to take her mind of her strange, grumpy dad and started to think about the sun,the new hotties, her new home. Miami. What a life she could have there............

"ma'am" . A horse voice called. Lisa cracked her eyes open. A man in a uniform with a bowler cap tapped on Lisa's should. Lisa's eyes were now wide awake. A blazing sun was shining through the scratched windows and not a single living person was on the train except for Lisa and the uniform man. Lisa got up and apologized. She reached up to get her bags and departed the train station.

As Lisa walked onto the platform she could feel the sea air blowing into her face. She took a deep breath and smiled. "Lisa?". Lisa turned around and saw a a tall middle-aged woman with blonde short hair. She was wearing a wine coloured velvet dress to her knees and a purple leather jacket. "Hi Lisa! Hi, hi welcome!" Lisa began walking towards her aunt and her aunt walked to her. Lisa hugged her aunt and smelled a lovely rose-like perfume.  "Hi Lisa,  I'm your aunt, Cindy, I know we haven't ever met and I am beating myself about that everyday" she laughed as she picked up one of my suitcases. " Now come on. The car is just at the other side of the train station" Cindy said as she walked towards the stairs. Lisa picked up her bag and followed. "So where exactly do you live in Miami? " Lisa asked. Cindy was almost at the bottom of the stairs already as she answered " Well, I have this beautiful house just along the coast. There are many houses along the coast. Actually,  I think you will make many friends here!"

They came to the bottom of stairs and arrived in a rather empty car park. There were only three cars. A red volkswagen jetta,  a silver Ford, and a black Mercedes benze. Cindy walked towards the Mercedes and pulled out a bundle of keys. The boot of the Mercedes opened automatically and Cindy carefully placed Lisa's suitcase in the trunk. Lisa put her bag in there too and Cindy slammed it shut.  "Hop in" Cindy ordered joyfully.  Lisa did so and sat in the front. She slid into the white leather seat. Lisa hadn't ever experienced such luxury and was already proper and surely exited about the few months to come. The journey was short and beautiful.  Cindy talked all about the lovely locals and the beaches and Lisa listened intently.       The black Mercedes pulled up a drive way with a green lawn and a little pig ran up to the car as it pulled up to a very large,beautiful house. When Lisa got out of the car the black pug jumped up and smothered her in saliva.  Lisa laughed out laud and pulled her suitcase and bag out of the trunk. "What is this little cutie called?" Lisa asked as he jumped up her leg. Cindy smiled as she said "He's called Frank". Lisa heard of someone called Frank from her father but couldn't quite figure who. Lisa never payed attention to what her dad said. He never cared for what she said.

Lisa and Cindy both walked through the large threshold. As Lisa passed through the double doors her jaw dropped. There were some shiny stone steps that led to a living room with a full sound system next to a curved television.  " Now come along Lisa, just leave your bags here and I'll give you the tour" Cindy said as she through her jacket on a coat hook. Lisa obeyed and left her suitcases in the entrance.  Cindy stepped down to the living room and instructed Lisa how to use the TV. "Now with the TV. I do have some rules. No TV after 1:00 in the evening! I dont mind you using it any other time" Cindy smiled as to not sound to strict.  Lisa smiled at that. Cindy lead the way to a couple more steps up wich lead to a  landing with many framed pictures hanging. One picture,  a small one that had a faded effect to it caught her eye. Lisa couldn't study it as Cindy was well ahead of her. Lisa hurried on into a well lit kitchen wich had large windows and double glass doors leading to a patio. There was a veiw of the sea wich as far as Lisa knew was the most beautiful sight she had evet witnessed.  Cindy showed Lisa a couple more rooms and lastly her own room. When Lisa walked in past the wooden colonial door she gasped. The room jad a small balcony with a veiw of the sea. To get to the balcony you had to pass two glass doors with white frames wich had vails of white hanging down from the top. She had a four-poster bed and a vintage green throw. There was a small couch across the room with a small tv. Next to the couch was a shelf with an uncountable amount of DVD's. Lisa turned around and saw Cindy grinning at her. Lisa ran and hugged her aunt. "Oh thank you so much!!" Lisa managed to break out. "Yeah you like it?", Cindy questioned, still grinning.  "Are you kidding? I love it!" Lisa was in fits of excitement.  "Great. Well you make yourself at home whilst I get some dinner ready. You must be starving after your long day." Cindy said,  signalling that she was going to be a fun hostess.  " your bathroom only has a shower and toilet though.  The bathroom across from your room has a bathtub though just in case." Cindy said as she walked away. My own bathroom?! Lisa thought to yourself.

           When Lisa came out of the shower she heard Cindy calling. "Lisa? Would you like Pepsi or 7up?". Lisa took a moment to think and replied " I'll take a Pepsi. Thank you." Lisa heard a clash wich sounded like ice cubes falling into a cup. Lisa heard her tummy rumble and put her hand on her stomach as if to tell it to shush. She came into her room and looked in her dresser. Lisa pulled out a pair of black leggings and a white singlet. She threw on a red checkered shirt and hurried downstairs.  "Well dont you look lovely?" Cindy said as she pulled out a pepperoni pizza from the oven.  Lisa's favourite.  "Haha thanks" Lisa laughed but accepted the compliment.  Her tummy rumbelled again! "Well somebody's hungry" Cindy laughed and put two quatres of the pizza and gave it to Lisa.  "Now enjoy!" Cindy smiled and sat down across from Lisa. As Lisa ate her food she admired the veiw of thr blue sea until she some someone come out of the water. He was in the distance but Lisa could definitely see he was hot! He carried a surf board with him wich Lisa admired. Lisa hadn't realised she had stopprd chewing until Cindy disturbed her thoughts. "Well someone has spotted someone with a surfboard" Lisa turned around "what?". Cindy laughed. "Oh come on you found some guy on the beach didn't you? No one just stares at one thing and stops chewing a pepperoni pizza!" Lisa couldn't help but laugh. " I will be exploring the people tomorrow but I think I'm going to take a rest now" Lisa said as she got up from the table and brought her dishes to the sink. She began running the water but Cindy stopped her. "Ah-ah I'll do the dishes. Your my guest now go and take a rest. You look like a ghost.  I don't like ghosts in my house!" Lisa laughed at that and left.
