December 11th, London, England
۞۞۞۞۞
EIGHT DAYS PASSED SINCE THE WEIRD MEETING with Choi Jung-won. I was relived for not meeting him again, or for not being bothered by my family in all of these days. Only the kids, and my grandparents cane to see me daily. This morning I even lent the two old couples my car so they could go around the city, they were too cute for me to resist.
Flower and Chase left for today to go around the city and have a romantic date, so I'm not counting on them coming back tonight, since they will probably go and have fun in a hotel or something.
So, I planned on stay and work overnight on the second power generator, since I was done with the first one. However, when my grandparents came back, after staying inside the main mansion for a while, the four of them came to me. "You have to come to have dinner with us tonight," grandpa Christian was the first one to voice that out.
"And don't come with that 'oh, grandpa, grandma, I cant, I have to work tonight'. It's Christmas season, Freya. You have to enjoy!" Grandma Alice exclaimed annoyed.
I chuckled anxiously, "What's with this? Can't I go only on Christmas Eve?"
"The hell, Freya?" Grandpa Christian yelled, "Are you crazy, sweet child? You aren't like this. You work too much but you always find time to fool around with boys. With your flings. So, find some fucking time to have dinner with your family!"
"Christian's right, little crow," grandma Scarlett added. "You can't keep running away. Especially when you are here. This is your childhood home, my dear."
"We agree when you maintain your distance, darling. But this is too much. It's been 11 days since you arrived and you haven't even shared a meal with all the family."
Sigh, "I ate with Kate and Dean. Separately."
Grandma Alice rolled her eyes, "We are talking about eating together with everyone, not just the ones you enjoy, Freya, my dear. They are your family. Even the kids are worried about you. You father even thought that you might be depressed."
I scoffed, "Oh, come on. I'm just working."
"No, Freya," grandpa Matthew pointed. "You are overworking. Not working. And you know it."
"Come tonight. For us," grandma Scarlett added with a contagious smile. "Dress up beautifully, in a way to show everyone how much more beautiful you are, for taking after us more then your parents, and come. Dress in light green, blue or red, it suits your beautiful black hair more, and don't wash your pale skin away. Don't forget the killer red blood-moon lipstick I bought to you some time ago," she winked.
I giggled, not being able to resist to them. "Fine. I'll go. You won, you won. Don't be mad at me," I said sulking. "I can deal with anyone but you guys being mad at me. So, if my presence there will at least make the four of you feel better, than I'll go."
"Yes. It's better since Chase and Flower aren't here," grandpa Matthew added. "You will be able to feel more comfortable getting ready by yourself."
They know me too well. "When is it?"
"9 pm," they said together.
Sigh, "Alright. Tell them I'll be going."

Dark Paradise by Lana Del Rey played on the speaker while I got ready. I took grandma's advise, since she has a degree in fashion and used to be a model, and chose a green dress that fit my body like a glove, it was long with a slit on my right leg and down, all tight in the right places marking my curves, especially my small waist and my voluptuous breasts. It's definitely a killer dress.
"Dove, change the song to All the Things I Hate About You by Huddy, and make the room warmer!" I ordered, and she followed it right away.
It's easier now since I connected her to the system of the lake house four days ago. Now she can do all I tell her to, thanks to how I had adjusted the system here when I came and first build the power generators and the solar panels. Again, a smart move.
The waves in my long hair appeared naturally after I dried it, and so I did my make up, marking well my dark blue eyes, and my lips using the lipstick grandma told me too. While I used diamond jewels in both my neck, ears, wrists, fingers, and ankle. My high heels of the night were of six inches each, and black, with a wider hell that made it a lot more comfortable to walk in.
Before bathing I had painted my nails red in the color of my lipstick, so it was beautiful.
Another details that would surely catch attention in my look are the tattoo I have of two snakes getting together from the bottom part under my breasts, to the middle of them, since the design of the dress allows me to show at least a small hint of the snake in the middle of my breasts. As well as the oriental dragon on my back that shows because of the dress that is almost backless behind, or the crescent moon I have on the back of my neck that will show if I move my long hair around.
Not to mention that only me and Dean have tattoos in the family. And only Dean and my grandparents know about all of mine, in the family. My parents and the others are only aware of the crescent moon on the back of my neck, which was my first tattoo and I had it at 18, since the others are newer. I got the dragon at 22 and the snakes at 23. All of them in my birthday.
Well I also have a fourth one, a dove in the right side of my hip, which you can only see if you see me in my underwear or a swimsuit because it's a little above the line of the bottom piece, or if you see me naked. And it's a symbol of my work, my newest and only colorful tattoo, since I got it about three months ago. The only people who saw it was Flower and the guys I had a fling with, obviously.
Dove was playing Fire by Saint Mesa when I finished getting ready. I took my black clutch and put my phone inside it. "Turn off all the unnecessary things who are consuming energy in the house, Dove. I'll be going to the main mansion for dinner, so you can stay off for now."
"Yes, Freya. Have a good night."
"I will," but the I remembered of something. "Should I give the three bottles of whiskey to their CEO already and only give him the other present on Christmas Eve? Or should I wait?"
"Take it with you."
I nodded, "You are right," then I looked around and found the thermal box I made sometime ago, with them, over the cabinet on the left side of the fridge. "Now, I'll be going."
"Have fun."
"Nearly impossible, but I'll drink!"
The second I stepped out of the lake house, covered in a long black warm coat, all the lights of the lake house were turned off, so I felt more at ease. Dove is definitely my best creation so far. There are some small things to improve, but she's the best out of the best.
I'm proud of myself.
As I walked towards my childhood house, I felt strangely anxious, but I didn't know why. Is it because I'll meet the weird hot guy again? I don't think so.
I'm hardly easily moved like this. Especially by boys. That just doesn't happen to me. It only happened once and I'm still trying to get out of that trap. That very thirsty trap.
Cursing myself for thinking of Rhys Choi again, I began counting sheeps to make my mind shut up. And from afar, I could hear Wonder by Shawn Mendes playing inside. "Hm, seems like either the old CEO likes modern songs, or it's one of the kids messing up with it."
Focusing on the melody, I sang it on my mind so I wouldn't think about that again, and as I got closer it grew louder. As it ended, it changed to I Did Something Bad by Taylor Swift, and I was sure that it was probably one of the 3-year-old squad messing around. There's no way a man old enough to be my father would be listening to Taylor Swift.
"Young Miss," all the guards securing the mansion bowed to me at the same time.
