Bad Boy's PHOENIX

Chapter 3 – New town

Caroline’s POV

“Mom, how long we have to travel more?” my a** cheeks are getting hurt for traveling hours. We left the B city early in the morning! Mom and dad didn’t want to give a goodbye hug to our neighbors. I don’t know why they are in a hurry to leave the town. Whatever we left that town forever. I slept hours like I never slept before.

“Sweetheart, we are almost there. I know you are tired, you can stretch your arms when we reach there” Mom said while turning her head. This time dad is driving, so I am not scared when she talks.

I sighed and looked at the sides of the road. One side is green forest and the other side is a profound slope that leads to the endless blue ocean. I dropped my phone aside to admire the beauty of the city. At the end of the sloping road, I saw the board saying,

“Welcome to H City” I read the board in my mind.

“This is our place” wait! What? What the hell is wrong with my head? Why this time to time whispers I hear from my inside. OK, Caroline, you need to get back you’re a** to a psychiatrist as soon as possible.

“Caroline, love did you see the board? We are close to your new home now. You seem oddly cherry! Please don’t show me that long face Car! Come on smile for me” mom asks unable to take her eyes off me. I gave a fake smile to her and showed them my white teeth. Mom gave a small laugh before concentrating on her makeup session.

We reached the place. Though it’s a weekday the town looks calm. I hope everyone is busy with their daily schedules. We parked the car in the garage and started to unpack our things from the car. It’s an average size home which is perfectly fitted for us. I went inside the house.

“I hope you like the new house baby!” mom came behind and patted my back.

I gave a smile and went upstairs. There were four bedrooms, kitchen, living room, two bathrooms, balcony and you know the regular things of a home. Seems like not bad ha! I went to check the bedrooms. After checking the two bedrooms upstairs I pick what is suitable for my fragile body. It looks exactly like my previous bedroom, but it faces to the backside of the house, which gives a closer look to a jungle with tall trees!

“Mom, I’ll be staying in this room” I screamed to her from my new bedroom.

“You already picked your room? I am glad you like the place, Caroline! Now hurry up unpacks your things sweetheart. Dad and I have a lot of things to do” mom rushed downstairs.               

We spent the whole day unpacking our things and I must say that moving from one to another home is a terrible experience, my advice does not ever do it.

In the evening mom prepared my favorite snack vanilla cupcakes and tea. We all were exhausted due to our heavy workload. I grabbed few cupcakes from the table and took my tea and went to the balcony of my room.

I had a piece of cupcakes, love it melts in my mouth. I seriously need to ask the secret recipe of my mom. I don’t know how she bakes this many tasty cuppies. She is the best chef in the world for me. She has some magic on her hand! Unfortunately, I didn’t get that.

My stress flew away from the room window as soon as the cupcake went inside. I mentally imagine how cupcakes are fighting with my stress and put the sword to its neck and ask to surrender! A giggle escapes from my lips. I recently read that stress can be released by having some desserts. You know why “STRESSED turn to other side DESSERTS”. I took my phone and on Bluetooth. I have a pair of air pods which mom bought me for my last birthday. I want to listen to my favorite song. Oh yeah, baby, it’s “White Flag of Bishop Briggs”. Can you envisage a better evening than this? Having your favorite snack and listen to a song to up your morale, I closed my eyes, and oh yes I extremely needed this relaxation!          

I see a little girl is playing with her parents. They are too far for me. The girl is having blonde hair like mine and it swings according to the wind. I thought to have a closer look, so I went there by keeping baby steps. I don’t want to disturb them. I came closer to them. Wait, what? They are my parents! And whom are they playing? Holy cow this is me! I’ve seen my childhood photos. This place seems like a village, I’ve never seen this place or a photo of this place. It’s really beautiful!

Suddenly a set of people were coming towards them. They all wore black robes and their faces are covered like my previous dream. My parents soon drag me to them and their faces look horrible. The robes people circles us and started to chant something. My parents squeezed their stomachs and screamed for help, little me started to cry. I screamed to stop them, but did they hear? No, I am in my dream.     

Then unexpectedly a family came running to our help. There was a boy looks like exactly my age. The lady who came running towards my parents holds like a golden sword and she pointed it towards to sky, a thundering came from the sky and she managed to throw it to the coven which caused to break the witch circle.

“Hurry up, run my king and queen!” the boy’s father screamed to my parents. Did they say, king and queen? Since when they became royals? They don’t have any thrones. My parents ran towards the forest with little me. I turned to the boy and saw his eyes!

WTF, those are Emerald green!
