" My! My!! Someone looks Pissed " Elliot mocked as i was scooting upstairs heading straight for my bedroom." Not now, Ell " Shit! My voice was getting shaky. I avoided looking at my brother to deceive his keen observatory skills.
" Hey, what's wrong? " He firmly held my arm pulling me to look at him.
I gotta be strong in front of my family if i have to deal with such A-holes around here.
I wiped the trickle off my cheekbone and faced him.
" Nothing, it's just. This place ", I lied.
"All i wanna do is go back home. This place is so not for us. I don't feel good " My voice cracked attenuating my strength and I hugged my brother, my only solace left, tears came streaming down." Asana, it's okay you have me. It'll be alright. You'll feel better with time. Okay! You want me to talk to mom? I'll take you back from next available flight... I I'll pay " said Elliot his eyebrows knitted in You-like-the-idea? Manner .
I chuckled as I know he's kidding we never disturb our parents when they're away for work. Success never comes easy. They really put a lot of work in their Law firm.
Elliot handed me his handkerchief. I wiped my nose with it. And next thing was him running behind me. Whew! Siblings, One moment they love you more than anything. Other moment they want you dead and your soul casted away in the deepest pits of hell.But i think that's the beauty of this relationship. And nobody really loves you until they want you dead. Right?
************
I looked at my flushed face whilst I brushed my teeth before I hit the bed.
I went through my CTM beauty regime and kicked off my rubber shoes.Looking out of my window all I could see is mist on the pane. Still staring into dark icy night felt like working in my favour and I drank in this sophisticated scene.
" who's There? " I asked as I heard a knock at my door.
" It's Jennet, Miss. " The maiden replied.
I felt content at the idea of some company.
" Oh! Be in Jenny " I told her.
The doorknob twisted and in came butler's pale young wife. Though she's not any paler than me anymore. Looks like Bitter cold town is indifferent while taking toll.
" I came to make fire, Miss " She bowed.
" Please " I replied and watched her as she lit my fireplace to life.
I did miss home. Terribly. Even our same old nanny who had zero courtesy and actually ordered us to do things. Dominating af! Though Elliot wanted her dead. But I know even he loved her much. Mom said the case was dangerous thus she can't have us alone back at home.I tried to read my book while laying down on bed but dropped it on my face instead.
Bad Day. Eh!
I checked my phone for any calls or texts maybe..... And wasted rest of an hour working scenarios in my mind. What will I say to Chace, next time I see him.
101 ways to Insult. Hahh!!!
Before I finally withered into a sleep.

"Asana, you went to the town. Right? How did you like it?? " Grandfather asked me.
" It was okay! But I'm not going there again " I replied to him filling myself with macaroons. Yes! Got a sweet tooth.
" Oh! Why, I was going to take you and your brother to meet all our friends. You two were loved by all when you were children. Especially you Asana. They were all so eager to see you both now" Grandmother asked, dismayed.
Elliot inconspicuously gave her an Ew look . I of course had to eye him angrily.
" Grann , Sure we would love to " I smiled at her.
" yes? " She looked up with Elation as if this is what she's been waiting for. " Oh Dear! They're all so classy families. Let's see Turner's are opening a whole new product line. They're throwing a ravishing party today. You two should come. It'll be so much fun " She said clapping.
She's so cute I can't think of breaking her heart so I reluctantly managed a nod.
**********
" Asanaaaa!! I'm so friggin excited to go see Greece and then it's Vegas Baby!! ( Yes! Raj style from Big Bang Theory )" My best friend Judy squeaked through phone.
" That's so exciting but Greece and Vegas? They don't really fit. You know " I told her .
" Oh Greece is with family stupid. Vegas will be with my cousins "
Me: Why have you called?
Judy: To make you Jealous...."Asana??? Why aren't you saying anything? "
"Oh! No Judy I'm happy for you (Yes, I am)" I assured her.
"I know right, Okay you tell me something new...? Other than that you're in a cold town. " She asked jocularly.
" Granny gifted me a new Louis Vuitton Damier Ebene " I tried to sound as excited as her since I'm in no mood to talk about bad things for now.
"You and your collections burn me with Envy girl " she replied.
" Hahh! " I replied.
"Mam, we're here" Robert told me in his usual sweet voice.
"Uh! Yes, Okay Jude. Enjoy so much girl. I'll talk to you later " and Please don't show me the pictures...
"Sure, Asana. Survive The Dandytown Well" She hung up .
Cold wind flayed my skin as I stepped out of my Car. If you're wondering where is Elliot so, let me tell you Vj's are very astutely awesome people they always know their way around everything. Around and out....
" Asana, you look very pretty . I was afraid you'll be late. Do you think you can walk faster and with much grace in those heels? " Grandma took my hand and starting speed walking towards the huge gates.
I looked around as I tip toed towards the party. The place was besieged with Vanity and expensive Cars....
Hmmmn I love Cars. But not if it's a black camaro which was staring right back at me from the parking.
Fuckety Fuck!!!!
I froze at the sight of black shining car parked right across mine. Of course I'm not sure if it's their car but my heart can't be wrong. Right? My heart which was beating so loud that all I could hear was it amongst the silent parking lot.
" Uh!! Grann..." I started nervously.
" Yes? " she asked still pulling me behind her, eager to enter the party on time.
" Do Turner's have a Son? " I asked hesitantly.
