SEAN POV

 

Somehow her smile is irritating me. Why is she smiling? 

Shouldn't she get angry at me?

 

“Amm Sarah how about you get fresh and then will have breakfast,” I said, still trying to understand her behavior.

 

“Ya sure” Saying she got up and went to the washroom.

 

Something is off in her today? I thought.

 

She came outside taking shower after sometimes and sat directly on the couch for breakfast.

 

She must be hungry am sure.

 

We finish our breakfast in some time and I look at her but she was behaving all normal and that is annoying me somehow.

I thought to break the ice so I spoke...

 

"By the way, I was really worried when did not recognize this place.”

 

"How can I recognize a place where I have never been?" She says me cleaning her mouth. 

 

"So you are saying you have never been to this place? Let me remind you, You have stayed at this place for more than a year." I said leaning towards the couch.

 

"Of course, how can I forget that, but let me also remind you I stayed in the basement of this house, not in the house. And this” she pointed towards the room “I have been here for the first time.”

 

I closed my eyes hearing this. I know she never came up, she always stayed in the basement.

 

"But why didn't you come up?" I asked somehow this always annoyed me.

 

"Why would I? She asked shrugging. 

 

"Why not?" I enquired. 

 

"Sean if you are forgetting then let me remind you, you have cleared the first day that this is your house, not mine. Which I was very much ok with. And second I wanted the shelter which you provided me, so why would I invade your privacy? I am not that shameless to come up after knowing my presence might disturb you." She spoke like not a big deal. But I could read her eyes and her pain.

 

“You getting it all wrong Sarah” I spoke and tried to say the fact.

 

“Oh come on Sean now I got everything right so let's not go there,” She said finishing her food and cleaning her face with a napkin.

 

I need to work out on my anger issues big time. Sometimes I don't even know what I am talking about.

 

"By the way, did you kept Anna as my caretaker? Sarah spoke.

 

I just nod in agreement.

 

She also nodded and got up and left the room.

 

I need to win her heart as soon as possible before things get out of my hand. I thought closing my eyes.

 

SARAH POV

 

I went out somehow Sean’s presence was suffocating me

And I just want to breathe some fresh air. 

 

While I was going outside I saw Anna was passing by and that reminded me of the time I spent here and the way she behaved with me.

 

“Hey, anna” I spoke giving her my best smile.

 

"Oh hello Sarah dear” She again gives me her fake smile

 

“It’s still Mrs. Hudson for you,” I said, folding my arms across my chest.

 

"Oh pardon me, Mrs. Hudson, Is there anything I can do for you?” 

Hearing me I can see demeanor got changed and am sure she must be thinking ways to kill mentally but baby you have no idea what you have to face now. thinking I smirk

 

"Of Course you can and let’s not forget the fact, you are here for me only if I may not wrong?” I spoke, smirking.

 

"Yes of course mam I am always at your service." She spoke unwantedly. 

 

"Good, now get me a cup of black coffee and make sure it's should not so hot nor too cold.”

 

"Certainly mam '' She bowed down and left. 

 

I smirked and went to the garden. I was looking at a beautiful garden and colorful flowers, I sat on the chair, placed in the middle of the garden, and closed my eyes. 

 

I don’t know what all is happening and what sean what. I thought

 

"Mrs. Husdon, here's your coffee” I opened my eyes hearing Anna’s voice.

 

I took the mug from the tray and took a sip. 

 

"Ewww I told you I need not be too cold. It's completely cold. Get me another one."

 

I could see she was as hell angry hearing this and she was unknowingly giving me a murderous look. I look up hearing the voice of sean.

 

"Is there a problem here?" He spoke taking the seat beside me.

 

"Nope, I asked Anna to get me another coffee because she got absolutely cold coffee for me see'' Saying I gave a mug to Sean and he took a sip.

 

"Anna? Is this a way we serve coffee? Completely cold? He spoke sternly... 

"No Master” saying she looked down.

 

I know she will try to mess with me, and she did as I thought and serve me an absolutely cold one but this time darling I am going to play with you.

 

“I shall change Master. My apology mam” Saying she flew away.

 

Sean follows my gaze and looks ahead but we spoke nothing.

 

After some time Anna again came back with two cups of coffee and give them to both of us.

 

I again took a sip of coffee “ouch” saying I spit the coffee back.

 

“What happened” Sean took a mug from my hand. Concern was visible on his face.

 

"It's.. it's too hot. It burns my tongue." I spoke cleaning my mouth with a tissue. 

 

"Oh my god, Anna don’t you know how to make coffee? Doesn't she mention that it's not too cold or too hot? She needed a lukewarm coffee. Is it that hard to understand? Now get the fuck out of my sight before I lose myself." Sean lashes out at her in anger.
