Chapter 18

The drive to Calabasas was so far, it took at least an hour and thirty minutes because the traffic. I was getting car sick. And my mom was driving the car and whenever she would hit the brake of the car it would slam me to the front. I'm not sure if it's because she is nervous or maybe she is on drugs but I was surprised we got at least to the exit of the freeway.

When we got off the freeway the palm trees which were aligned down the streets were amazing and such an aesthetic it gave to Calabasas. I was a bit more excited about this than I thought.

We drove by some stores and by In-n-Out and I could legit smell the burgers and fries which made my stomach growl.

As we when drove into a nice neighborhood it looked pretty calm nothing like in Los Angeles. My mom parked the car and at the gate of the house was a man. He looked like he was in his 30's at least. He had blonde hair just like mine although you can't tell because of the many times I've dyed my hair.

My mom got out the car then I did. We were awkwardly walking towards the man who I'm guessing is Rob.

"Hello girls." He said smiling first hugging my mom then me.
"And you're Lana right?"
"Yes and you are?" He chuckled
"I'm Rob."

He then had the gate open and we walked towards his beautiful mansion. The grass and trees were so green and filled with life. The front porch was as beautiful as anything in the house.

Before we all walked in the house Rob turned around to check that the gate had closed completely.

When we walked in the house there was a nice variety of pictures that hanged on the walls. A beautiful chandelier greeted us as we looked at the ceiling. The architecture put into the whole mansion was beautiful.

"Nice right? Or do suggest adjustments? Rob said playing around as he saw how interested I was in everything.
"No it's perfect." I smiled over to him.

Out of nowhere a girl came running down the stairs.
"Daaaad! WHEN ARE WE GOING TO BUY A NEW CAMERA? I REALL-" The young girl who looked about my age, stopped when she noticed we were at the entrance.
"Oh hey honey so Lana this is Chuck. She is your half sister.." I looked over to my mom, this was so weird.
"Nice to meet you Lana. Now dad it's moments like this when I need a FREAKING NEW CAMERA."
"Don't worry I actually thought maybe you and Lana could later go do that."
"Oh yeah sure that would be fine." She looked over and smiled at me.

"Chuck why don't show Lana around while I talk to her.."
"Yeah of course. C'mon!" Chuck said as grabbed my hand and we headed up the stairs. The hallways were wide and forever long. She opened the fourth room.

"Tadaaaa!" She said as she opened the room and I followed her in. She had a huge bed, nice curtains and on the wall were photographs of her and her friends or places she's been to. The view of her window to the backyard was such a sight. She had a few drawings as well and on a shelve she had at least three kinds of cameras. The colour of her room was a turquoise.

When I looked out the window I noticed a gardener who looked in his 20's. He had sleeve tattoos and this rocker vibe. I stared and stared, I just didn't know why he caught my attention so much. Chuck even noticed that I was intrigued by something.

"Ooo who are you staring at Lana? Don't worry I won't tell anyone." I looked at her and we start laughing. I then feel my phone vibrate.

Chuck leads me to sit on one of the bean bags she has. I look at my phone while she goes to the bathroom.
