"I'm in love with a fairy tale
Even though it hurts
Coz I don't care if I lose my mind
I'm already cursed"
I was in complete loss of words as soon as I stepped inside the gigantic mansion. Well who will be not? Because it was that much beautiful!
My eyes roamed around the whole room which had great interior designing while I heard someone clearing his throat
"Oh I'm sorry just zoned out" I apologised with an awkward smile.
"Well, let's meet him... he's in his bed as he can't walk without wheelchair after the accident" Mr. Sighania says while I nodded my head and followed him taking a deep breath.
He knocked on the door of a room asking for permission to come in while I stood behind him fiddling with my duppata.
I was really nervous as he's my first ever patient that holds my future.
"Get in" I heard a deep voice which gave me goosebumps. Mr. Sighania asked me to follow him and I did.
As I walked inside my eyes roamed around the surroundings of the room which was black and grey giving those haunted house vibes. Well, not really it's just about the paint.
"Boss, this is Ms.Thompson your new caretaker" he announced and I looked at the other guy who was leaning on the headboard of the bed with a laptop in his lap.
Mr. Fernández looked at me and the moment he looked at me, he gave me a glare.
"You didn't got anyone else?" He asked, annoyed to Mr. Sighania who stood confused just like me.
He passed me another glare before smirking. For what?!8 Did this guy's brain cells ran away after the accident?
"Leave" he ordered and I was about to go when I saw Mr. Sighania leaving before giving me a look to 'stay here'
I shut my eyes in embarrassment and bit my lower lips before turning to Mr. Fernández with a nervous smile.
"Tomorrow at 8 am sharp" he said and asked me to get out. Seriously? Is this what he wanted to say so privately? I scoffed as I walked out of the mansion.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Tomorrow at 8 am sharp" I imitated my new client, mentally cursing him.
I looked over at my sister who was lost in thoughts. She had her jaw dropped when I said that I'm the caretaker of Mr. Fernández.
"I still can't believe it" she said munching on the last chips we had in the packet.
"It's the truth" I said casually eating my Maggie while watching 'big boss'
"You should sleep early" she said and I nodded my head before slurping down the noodles and getting off the couch and washing my face.
The night was the same with the nightmares.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Good morning" I greeted a lady, who seemed to be my age when I entered his mansion.
"You're his new caretaker right?" She asked with a gentle smile and I nodded my head.
"Hi! I'm Amelia. Nice to meet you!" She introduced herself with the gentlest smile ever which can put anyone's heart in ease.
"Hey! I'm Serene. It's nice to meet you too lia" I said reciprocating the same smile she sent me.
"Oh... it's a unique name..." She complimented making me..... blush? Well, nobody has complimented my name maybe that's why I blushed
"Thank you Amelia" I said with a small smile and she was about to say something while I heard another voice.
"Who's the new guest?" Asked a boy who was carrying a small plate of fruits. I noticed Amelia rolling her eyes.
"I forgot to introduce him, this is Liam, my annoying elder brother" she said I nodded my head while chuckling and passed him a small smile which he returned with a big one but not before glaring at his sister
"She's sir's new caretaker, Serene" Amelia introduced while he nodded with the biggest smile.
"Well i-" Liam started but abruptly stopped when Amelia stopped him
"We should stop here or sir won't leave us alive" she whispered and I nodded my head understanding her words.
"Go back to your work Liam. I'll tell her what to do" Amelia said and Liam walked back to doing his work leaving both of us alone.
"The first thing that you have to do is go wake him up and help him do whatever he wants then we have to make coffee for him" she instructed and I nodded my head and walked with her as she was showing me his room.
"He must be awake by now, just go in after knocking. He doesn't like people who don't ask his permission before entering his room" Amelia said and I nodded my head understanding and took and deep breath after she left.
I was nervous as heck
"Mr. Fernández" I knocked and got no response. I knocked again, no response, again and again and again, still no response.
As the impatient girl I am, I entered his room and found his sleeping figure.
Idiot. Can't wake up even after turning my throat into Sahara desert.
"Mr Fernández" I called still no response. Is he dead? Nah I don't think so
"Mr. Ferná-" he opened his eyes without a warning and...
"AHHHHH" He screamed on top of his lungs knocking the living angels out of me and not just that because of his sound I abruptly walked back and hit my leg on the table beside and fell on my face, kissing the floor. Great!
"What the hell!" He yelled while I caressed my nose, glaring at him.
"You didn't have to yell I have perfect ears to hear everything you say!" I yelled back standing up, dusting my sky blue kurti.
"You're the one who's yelling!" He said with a glare
"You started it!" I said and passed him my glare.
"Who told you to enter my room without my permission?!" He questioned
"My mind!" I said and he passed me another glare. Like I care.
"Ms. Thompson I'd like you to stay on your limits" he said and I scoffed
"And I'd be more than happy if you go and see an ENT specialist for your damaged ears!" I said and he looked at me in disbelief with wide eyes
"There's nothing wrong with my ears!" He said confidently and firmly while I rolled my eyes.
"Yes yes! There's nothing wrong with your ears! It's just that you sleep like a dead pig" I muttered underneath my breath.
"What did you say?" He asked looking at me with a questioning gaze while I shook my head as nothing.
"So, Rule no 1. I don't want you to get in my room without my permission." He emphasises the word my. I nodded my head as I was in no mood to fight.
"So, take me to the washroom" he said and I nodded my head and helped him to sit on the wheelchair and took him to the washroom. I was about to leave when he called me
"Where are you going?" He asked and I raised my brow at his lame question. Out of the washroom duh.
"What? Do you want me to sit and watch you bath?" I said without a thought and my eyes widen. Shoot!
"Excuse me Ms. Thompson. Get a grip on your tongue and even if you die to see me bath, that's impossible" he said with an annoying smirk. Like I want to see his body! (Mental eye roll)
"No worries Mr. Fernández. I'd rather eat my neighbours shoes than seeing your body" I said with a polite smile but internally smirked as I saw his face heating red in anger.
"Help me get in the bathtub" he said and I slowly made him sit on the wheel chair and went inside the washroom.
I was making him get in the bath tub but my leg slipped making me fall on top of him in the bathtub.
"You'd rather eat your neighbour's shoes than seeing my body huh?" He asked with his all time favourite annoying smirk. Did this guy's brain functions stopped working?
"Mr. Fernández should I arrange a neurologist for you?" I asked and he raised his brow.
"What do you mean?" He asked, confused as fuck.
"Coz you really need to get your brain checked. " I said sarcastically before getting out of the bathtub.
I walked away but not before giving him a one last glare.
Target- 2?
