C6 Chapter 6

Sharanya's pov.

Finally, after two hours of travel, our flight landed at our destination safely.

We stepped out of the airport.

His car and one ambulance were present there as they were taking many directly to the hospital.

"I want to go with Maa," I said to him.

"Let her go, there are so many tests left. You can meet with her tomorrow." Was this brown-eyed monster kidding? How could he have said that, huh? I couldn't leave my mother alone.

I said, "I can't leave her alone. I am going with her." I said, and was about to step inside the ambulance, but stopped feeling a clutch in my hand.

"You are going with me, Sharanya, and it's final." Much to my annoyance, he said sternly.

"This time I won't be able to obey you, sir," I said, removing my hand from his clutch.

"Then do whatever you want, aur ghar akele aajana, (come home alone)" he said as he sat inside his car, giving me a hard glare.

____________________________

They did so many tests, and the reports would be out the day after tomorrow. It's already evening. Please make my mom fit and fine.

"My baby, it's already evening. You should go home now," Maa said to me.

"You can manage, right?" I asked.

"Of course Sharanya, I am not that weak," she said to me.

"Ok then, I'll come to meet you tomorrow. Please take care of yourself and you'll be fine soon," I said and kissed her palm, making her smile.

"Sharanya, you are alone, right? (How will you go alone?) " She asked, concerned, and I looked at her.

"Uhh..noo maa, actually Neil Sir's driver is waiting for me outside. I am not going alone." Oh yeah, I lied to Maa because I didn't want her to get tense.

She smiled and nodded, while I sighed in relief.

"OK maa, I'm leaving now, please take care," I said as I walked away.

Now what to do? I have no one here with me. I had a little cash with me, but I didn't want to use it now. Hell, I didn't even know his residential address.

GOOGLE?

Yes, Google would help.

I took my phone from my purse; this phone was very special to me because my mother had given it to me on my 18th birthday two months before.She bought this in Emi.. She was the best; she did so many things for me.

Turning on the mobile data, I searched for his address on Google.

I think I found it. After all, he was a billionaire.

Now I have to find the route. With the help of Google maps, I started walking, following all the directions. I was getting scared. I walked, praying to God. Just then, one car stopped in front of me and I took two steps back, being scared.

The driver stepped out and said, "Neil Sir, ordered me to drop you at his mansion." I looked at him suspiciously.

"Ohh hello driver uncle, stop lying, OK you can't kidnap me. I am Sharanya Iyer and I know the direction of his house. I'll go alone," I said angrily.

"I am Neil Sir's driver and he told me to drop you safely." He said it again, and I stomped my feet in frustration.

I tried to sound confident while admitting that I was scared.

Suddenly, my phone started ringing from an unknown number. I picked up the call.

"Stop your drama and get inside the car. Don't create a scene in the middle of the road." Before I could reply, he cut the call.

It was a brown-eyed monster.

"Driver uncle, do you have any cameras?" I asked, looking here and there because I was scared; how did he get to know?

"No, actually sir, I am on call," he said, showing his phone.

Ughhhh, I will be getting mad very soon.

I sat inside the car while the driver-uncle drove off.

We reached it in 20 mins.

Stepping out of the car, I looked at the mansion in awe. It was so beautiful, like, so beautiful.

With shivering hands, I rang the doorbell, and one butler opened the door, giving me a look. I didn't say anything and stepped in. I found Neil Sir. His brother and wife were sitting in the living room.

"Ohh, finally you are here." It was Anusha Maam.

I stopped a few metres away from them, fiddling with my scarf.

"Go and freshen up, then make tea for me," Anusha ma'am said. Alternatively, you could say, order.

I raised my eyes to her."Woah Miss, whatever, why are you looking at me like that? You are mad, so you have to work," she said to me. I didn't say anything and glanced at Neil Sir, for once, who was using his phone while sitting comfortably.

Yeah, right I was a maid only. OK, sharu control.

"Nadira bii." She called someone.

And one lady came out of the kitchen. She was like my mother's age.

"Show this girl her room," she said to her.

Nadira Bii nodded and turned towards me, "This way." I nodded and followed her upstairs. Just then I heard Anusha mam speaking, "I don't know why your room chose a room for her in this mansion. Servant quarter me toh reh sakti thi na woh. (She could have stayed in servant quarter)"

She showed me the room and I thanked her. I nodded, smiling, and Nadira Bii said, "If you need anything, then call me." I nodded, smiling, and she left.

I dumped myself on the bed. I was so tired. I didn't sleep properly last night, then I flew and then walked for 20 minutes, uhhh.

My stomach growled in hunger. I didn't even have my lunch. Uhhh, what to do now?

Shift Anusha told me to make tea for her.

I took out my outfit from my luggage and went to the restroom.

I went down and straight to the kitchen. Now I have to make tea for her.

"Nadira bii, can you please tell me where the sugar is?" I asked her softly, and she nodded and helped me. I made tea for her and went to the living room; she was watching some shows on TV.

I gave the tea to her, "Now go and help Nadira Bii cook dinner."

I nodded and went to the kitchen.
