After half an hour Abi finally came out from the telephone booth. At first, Tom was stunned when he saw her holding her cap in her hand and her eyes were in contrast to her red crimson hair and the mist of her eyes make on hard to breathe. She walked toward the car while Tom walked behind her still in a daze. Getting back on the car both of them left for the villa. Abi took out her phone and booked an appointment at a tattoo shop. she had one of her tattoos from country F when she was only 19 and was satisfied with his work. that's why there wasn't any problem for her. After being on road almost for an hour they finally reach Lee's villa. She thanked Tom for his accompany and went into the villa. The family was nowhere in the living room so Abi just start walking toward her room. when she heard a maid. Miss, young master and his family are in the dining area waiting for you.
Abi was stunned for a moment but quickly nodded in acknowledgement.
She went back to her room and washed her hands then again she came down walking into the dining area. she saw Father Lee sitting on a head chair and Mama Lee on his right side while Alan sat on his left side. Alan stood up and helped her sit beside him as a gentleman and then passed her boul of fresh pumpkin soup.
"let's start," said Father lee.
"Sorry for making you guys wait." Abi wrote a message and show it to them.
"No problem dear," said Father Lee.
"Eat well dear I made this soup for you." said mama lee all in smiles.
Abi nodded in acknowledgement and gave back the smile sincerely. Although she never liked other company. but somehow she felt amazing facing the Lee family.
"Tomorrow is Saturday grandpa and grandma Lee are going to arrive at 6 in the morning so I want you to go and pick them up from the airport." Said Father Lee to Alan while eating his meal.
"Okay, I'll go and get them." Said, Alan.
Although they talk very little after that but still the atmosphere of the dining area was relaxed. After eating dinner all of them took leave to their respective rooms. Abi was laying on her bed deep in thoughts when she heard a knock on her door and saw Alan entering holding some stuff in his hand. Abi got up and sat on the bed.
"I thought I should do a quick check-up on you."
Abi gazed at him knowingly. When Alan helped her put a thermometer in her mouth and on beeped he checked the normal temperature. then he took her vital test. Alan checked her throat and asked her to try to make some sounds which she made successfully.
"You are recovering quite a fast girl. Just take your medication on time you will be recovered soon."Alan took his medical box and was about to leave but then he stopped in his track." it was mothers birthday last week and we are holding a party for that this Sunday which is the day after tomorrow if you don't mind can you join me as a partner." he mumbled his last words in a meek voice as If afraid of saying it aloud.
"..."
Abi narrowed her beautiful red eyes in suspicion as if she is trying to figure out what is it in his mind. it was a surprise for her that a scheming man like Alan is asking her for being his partner. After a long awkward silence, he saw her finally nodding in acknowledgement. after getting out of her room Alan finally took a deep breath which he was holding for quite a while now. "Scary" he mumbled in his breath and walked away.
The next day it was Saturday. Abi's room was still dark because of heavy black curtains. she woke up groggily and walked toward the window and lifted the thick black curtain making the darkroom shine with brightness. After freshening up she walked out in corridors. Passing throw the rooms she went down and saw the Lee couple sitting in launch while chatting together. There was also some visitors. Abi walked elegantly toward Father and Mother Lee.
"Good morning dear, come to have a seat with your aunty. let me introduce you."Davidson was the first one to notice Abi so he calmly brought everyone's attention to her.
Ariana whose back was facing Abi quickly got up and went toward her grabbing her hand she pulled Abi toward the guests. there was a woman in her 50s sitting elegantly with a man which seems to be her husband and beside both of them, a girl in her mid-20s was sitting. she had a beautiful face with blond straight hairs which were tied in a messy braid. she had a layer of make-up on her face covering half of her beauty. Although with her style she looked weak in the way she gazed at Abi. it was as if she was scrutinizing her from every inch.
Ariana who was holding Abi's hand exclaimed excitedly. "Everyone meet Abigail. she is Alan's girlfriend. isn't she pretty?"
