`I may not be able to drive you all the way in because it is guarded. You might have to ask them to pick you up from the guard post, girl'.
It dawned to her that some people guard their house with the best security they can get, but here she stays in the middle of a jungle without care for security nor safety; with the same end result of feeling secured and protected. As soon as she neared Stargaze lane, there were more trees, rose flowers, and jasmine flowers planted along the road with bright LED lights hanging from metals curved in the shapes of vines.
She was staring out the window looking at the majestic looking houses when the taxi stopped at the guard post. She paid the fare and checked herself at the guard post.
