COLLEGE DIARIES

                 EPISODE:87

                       

...I went for the door to find a middle-aged man dressed in a white driver uniform.

" Miss. Rosa?", he questioned. I nodded.

"Come. I am the driver for the Jones family and I have been appointed to drop you and your family off at the party."

"Umm...give me a second.", I said and closed the door behind me. I dialed Ethan's number,

"Hello? Daisy?"

"Ethan! There's this person at the door who says he's your driver, is it?".I could hear him laugh.

"What's funny!", I said angrily.

"When he said he is, then why do you doubt?"

"Because I have been stalked for months!"

"Okay, I get you. Now, stop doubting and come over! See you soon!", he said and hung up. Sophie, grandma, Lucy and I got in the black Mercedes and in no time we reached the Jones' mansion. I got out of the car and was astonished and amazed to see how beautifully their mansion was decorated...it was splendid and just so beautiful...I couldn't take my eyes off the decoration. Their fountain was beautifully decorated with fairy lights, all the trees as well and there was a big Christmas tree on the outside which was extra-gorgeous. This time, there were so many guests. Some coming from the cars, some chilling outside the mansion. Everyone looked beautiful and yes, people had followed the theme genuinely. Helpers were moving in and out of the house. I saw Claudia come outside and search for someone and God! did she look amazing!!! Dresses in a floor-touching red shimmery gown with black embroidery and of course, her matching long earrings and other accessories. In no time, her gaze rested on me and her eyes lit up. She came running towards me and I worried she may fall or something. She hugged me as soon as she came and greeted Sophie, grandma, and Lucy.

"You look gorgeous!", she said with a broad smile.

"Thank you, Claudia, you yourself look wonderful!"

"You know one thing I really envy is your eyes and your hair!", she said, starting to walk. I laughed,

"You said one thing?"

"Fine. Two, have you looked at how wonderful is your blonde hair?", she said looking at my hair.

"Thanks, Claudia!", I said. As we entered the house, I couldn't stop looking at the ethereal decoration and the lights!!! It was as if I had been walking in heaven! I saw Ethan's parents and greeted them. Ethan's mom said,

"You look elegant, dear!".I smiled and said Thank you. Lucy and Sophie, each came beside me while Claudia went away. Lucy whispered,

"What did I tell you at home? About people telling Wow?!"

"True!", I replied. Claudia came back to me along with Eva. She looked pretty as well.

"Hello Daisy, Merry Christmas, you look really good!", she said with a handshake.

"Merry Christmas to you too, Eva! You look pretty!".I looked around myself to find guess, guests, and guests everywhere. Truly, the Jones family had good connections.

"Where's Ethan?", I questioned Claudia. She looked around and said,

"I don't know...haven't seen him around...anyway, would you like to play games?"

"Sure.", I said, and started walking. As I was speaking with Claudia, someone came and put a blindfold on my eyes from behind me. And it was so quick, I never had a chance to turn behind and see.

"Before you think I'm kidnapping you and you start using your martial arts techniques! Let me tell you, I'm not!".It was Ethan. He had blindfolded me.

"Of course, not! I know it's you!", I laughed and started untying the blindfold but before I could, he held my hand.

"Jokes apart, can you please-", I began but he said,

"No! No, I have something to show you, Come!", he said and walked me through the room. It was difficult to walk with a floor-touching gown in a big house.

"Hey! I'm gonna fall!", I shouted when a stumble like thing hit my shoe. I could hear everyone giggle and by everyone, I couldn't really make out who they were but yes, I did hear soft giggling.

"You won't!", I heard Claudia say. After a few minutes of stumbling and walking and smiling and talking, I felt myself outside. I knew so because of the cold winter wind that brushed against my arms.
