I reached my home still being surprised and shocked. I can't believe I ate lunch with those two. Today I had the most awkward and weird lunch in my whole life with two people that I want to avoid the most. How am I so unlucky? I remember in my world I had a pretty good luck.
I went to my room and changed into some light amd comfy shirt and pajamas. Soon the teddy that I bought arrived. I was so happy. I quickly went downstairs and picked up the teddy. Mom was shocked seeing the teddy but she only smiled and said nothing. I was brimming with happiness. I immediately took the teddy to my room and jumped into it.
I was in the arms of my teddy. I remembered how much of a weird day I had today. John offered me to work in his company. But I don't want to work in his company and be near him. I am scared that once he falls in love with the female lead, he'll not be a sweet guy anymore and he will change. I don't even bother for Rustler as his personality is cold but John is different. He behaved in a nice way towards me and I kind of like him but I am scared that instead of warmth I will see coldness in his eyes after he meets the female lead.
I am so confused right now. I want to become good friends with him but I want to avoid him as well. Let me just think this straight. Anyways, I have time to think about it. In the novel, the female lead appeared around next week. Hmm. Thinking about her she is an attractive and beautiful person. Male lead is gonna notice her right away. But this is not the only reason he noticed her. They have a relation from their childhood as well.
But that is none of my business. I got up from my bed and sat on the chair. I opened my drawing book and started drawing designs. Soon it was time for dinner. We all ate dinner happily and chatted for a while. I told mom and dad about today's meeting with John and Rustler. They are open minded so I told them about John's offer. Dad said not to worry and do whatever I wanted to do. Mom also agreed. I asked him for an advise. So, he told me that it would be good if I went to work in John's company as it would be beneficial for my own because Smiths are known all over the world. And they have a huge influence. I can be more successful if I do internship there.
I just said that I will consider and greeted them a 'goodnight'. They greeted me back and I went to my room and jumped into my bed hugging my teddy.
The next few days I stayed in home focusing on my designs. I drew a lot of designs. Most of them were from my world. It can be considered as cheating but who cares. I am in a novel. Life also cheated on me!
One day I was just laying on my phone, too lazy to even get up when my phone rang. It was from Sarah. She told me to accompany her to go to shopping. As I was doing nothing, I agreed immediately. I put on some casual clothes and took out a matching bag and set off. I told my mom that I was meeting Sarah and she didn't mind.
I reached at the complex Sarah had told me. I parked my car and as I walked towards the building I saw her. She was also not dressed fancy. Just a t-shirt and jeans. We are so fated to become friends.
I love how simple she is though she is from a wealthy family. Girls of other wealthy families are so arrogant and irritiating. I waved at her. I reached her and hugged her.
"Hey, let's go inside." She said as she pulled me inside the complex. I just hope I don't meet Rustler or John here. Atleast not Rustler. Even if I meet John it would be a low okay as he is atleast polite.
We went to lot's of stores. Sarah bought many clothes. I did shopping just few days ago and I had plenty of clothes so there was no need for me to buy anything. It was fun with her. Later we ate ice-cream and went to a resturant. It was a girl's day. I enjoyed very much.
"You look so mature Grace. And yet you are childish. But I like this version of you more." Sarah said to me when I was busy munching the delicious dishes. I looked at her and smiled. She chuckled and ate her food. We chatted happily. I was very satisfied with my new best friend. She is a good person and is funny too. Too bad she is a girl and I am into boys. Otherwise, I would have dated her.
It was a good day. We ate some pastries and chocolates and we even watched a horror movie. It was so fun. For the first time I felt happy that I came to this novel. It was almost evening so we parted our ways and I went to my home.
When I reached home, I discovered my big brother Sean. He had returned from his business trip. I greeted him. He greeted me back. He was quite handsome and manly. He looked serious and cold but I could see that warmth in his eyes as he looked at me. I was happy with our family reunion. Mom made so many dishes that smelled lavishing. I drooled over the food and quickly started eating. Seeing me like this Sean was surprised. He even touched my forehead and asked me if I had a fever and had taken a wrong medicine.
I just swatted his hand away and enjoyed the food. All three of them laughed out loudly. I also joined them in laughing as I was feeling quite funny. But warmth was spreading all over my heart. I was so happy to experience this kind of family love. For an orphan who never had a chance to call someone mom and dad, it was a priceless thing. Though I am not their real daughter but they love me. And I really find them good people and see them as my own family.
After the meal, we discussed about my internship. Sean also agreed for my internship and gave me a few advise. I listened to him carefully. After that I went to my room and had a great sleep hugging my teddy. Next day I woke up had my breakfast and I was lying on my bed going through my instagram when I heard my mom calling me.
"Mom, what is it?" I went downstairs shouting. But as soon as I reached downstairs, I frozed. That person was sitting on the couch wearing a brown suit holding a cup of coffee in his right hand. He looked at me with those dark blue eyes. Suddenly I got chills and started feeling cold. What the hell is going on?
"Oh. You're here? Oh god! What happened to your hair? And why are you dressed like that? Go quickly and change your clothes." My mom was just walking out of the kitchen with some cookies when she saw me and started lecturing me. It still took me some minutes to process that Rustler King was sitting in the couch of my home. I looked away from him.
"Okay." I muttered and went to my room to change. I saw myself in the mirror. I looked horrible with my hair that looked like a bird nest and I was wearing a pink shirt and doremon pajamas. What an embarassment! It is okay though. I am not gonna impress him or something. But I was curious about his visit so I just changed my clothes and combed my hair tying it into a ponytail.
I went downstairs. He was still sitting on the couch like he owned this house. I rolled my eyes and went towards them. "Hello Mr. King." I greeted him fulfilling the formality. He gave a light nod.
Beside him was my brother talking some business. So I went to the kitchen looking for mom. After entering the kitchen I asked her, "Mom what is Mr. King doing here?"
"Your brother had a deal with him. So he invited him. Surprisingly he agreed so he is here. They are just talking business. Just look presentable. You don't have to worry about these trival things." My mom said as she went outside again carrying some soft cakes. I just grabbed a cookie and ate it. I also followed mom. She put the tray on the table and sat on the couch. I also sat on another couch facing mom. I picked up some cookies and started eating them.
I saw Rustler glancing towards me few times. I just ignored him. After some time he stood up and shaked his hand with my brother. Dad was out in the meeting. Sean went to see him off. Rustler just gave a nod to my mom and completely ignored me. As if I care! I am trying to avoid him and I am seeing him every now and then. I am so unfortunate. Why is he even here? It is not like my brother and him are best friends. Why would he visit my house? This is getting weird.
Thinking of this I went to my room. If I don't offend the female lead he will not torture me and kill me right? So why do I have to avoid meeting him? I will just ignore him even if I meet him from now on. I tried to avoid him but he is just appearing out of nowhere in weird timings. It is impossible for me to avoid him completely because I am the main villaness of this novel. I will just not bully the female lead and maybe John and Rustler will not hate me and torture me till death.
I opened jewellery box to put my earrings inside it. I was putting the earrings inside the box when I noticed a hairclip. The hair clip was so beautiful. It was full of crystals. And when I turned it over there was 'GM' carved in it. GM = Grace Miller. Why do I feel like this hairclip seems familiar? I think I am forgetting something. But I don't remember it. Anyways a hairclip can not do anything. I really liked this hairclip. I am definately wearing this hairclip more.
(Hairclip)
Suddenly I got an idea. This villaness had a long hair. I don't like long hairs. Look there are so many problems with long hairs. They fall frequently and are scattered all over. There are so many split ends as well. And it looks so messy and there so many bundles are formed in hair. So I am getting a haircut. It is nearly afternoon so I will go to the saloon tommorow for the haircut.
