Lina stepped down of the plane holding her nephew in one hand while the other carried their luggage.

She wore a dark blue, off-shoulder body-hugging gown that hugged her body and displayed her curves that were in the right places. The gown was only above her knee.

Her long black hair was left hanging down around her waistline. Her sunglasses prevented the heavy sun from affecting her eyes.

Fred was putting on a silver suit and had his hair combed and styled sideways. With his sunglasses on. He looked so handsome and out of the world.

As they passed some people stared at the two beautiful pairs of individuals while they passed.

.........

A small smile made its way to my face as I looked at the sky.

I looked at the environment that has changed a little compared to five years back ago" I'm back in New York." I murmured under my breath.

We had just come out of the airport when a car stopped in front of us with a screeching. I looked at the car with blossoming anger but my anger melted like a Walt when the glass window was scrolled down revealing the face of the man in his forties.

" Good day ma'am, are you Miss Lina?"

I looked at him weirdly and pursed my lips in a straight line refusing to answer that question.

I looked at him suspiciously. During my years of stay in London, I have learned a lot of things. The reason, I decided to move out of this country in the first the place was because of my suspicion of some unknown men dressed in black looking at my nephew weirdly.

" Oh, sorry miss, Let me introduce myself. I'm Mr. Cameron. " he introduce himself when he saw I wasn't answering his question.

" Miss Matilda sent me to pick you and her godson up from the airport."

My face finally relaxed, yesterday when matilda called me, I told her when. I was. coming back. She promised to send a car to pick me up and Fred up.

"Oh...." I was about to reply more when my phone buzzed. I looked at the screen and smiled when I saw the caller. I wiped my middle finger across the screen and put my phone.

" Hello, " I said.

" Oh, my God! nana. You people are back?"

" Hmm!"

" I sent a driver to pick you guys up."

" Okay, thank you," I replied with a smile.

I cut the call and look at the man inside. car and stretched out my hand.

" It's nice to meet you."

he smiled and opened the car and stepped down out of the car and shakes my stretched-out hands.

"I'm Mr. Cameron, it's nice to meet you too," he said with an enchanting smile on his face.

" Hi, my man. I'm Fred!" My little nephew said with his small palm outreached which made the man ruffle out a laugh from his throat.

" I'm Mr. Cameron, little boy." Mr. Cameron said with a British accent and shakes his hand.

" Hi Mr. Cameron, I'm Fred not a little man. I'm Fred" Fred said with seriousness lacing and dripping from his voice and a small frown embraced his forehead. I watched my little nephew with a smile.

Me Cameron should thank his stars that this little man here was in a good mood throughout today unless he would have been subjected to tireless questions and answers.

" Sorry, Fred. Can we be friends?"

The little guy looked at him and snorted, " I don't make friends anyhow. You need to work hard."

" It's okay Fred, sorry for that Mr. Cameron. Can we go now?" I said cutting them off. If I should leave the both of them......

" Yes why not," he opened the back car for us. I excepted Fred to enter but when I looked at him. It seems he has no intention of getting in. I got into the car, I looked at him as he moved to the passenger's car and got in.

I heard Mr. Cameron's laughter as he pulled our luggage into the car boot before entering into the driver's seat and driving off from the airport.

The car was very silent throughout the journey, Out of business. I pulled out my phone and entered into my F******k account and scrolled through the page.

Something on the page cut my attention but before I could read it. I heard Mr. Cameron announcing " We have arrived."

I looked outside and pulled back my phone into my red purse.

I opened the door and stepped out. I looked around the big mansion but they seems the same. Nothing was different about the house. Just as it was when we left.

I turned to Mr. Cameron who was pulling our luggage out of the bag.

I went to help him but he refused my assistance declaring that he will do it.

" Grandma, grandpa!" I turned when I heard a Fred's voice screaming behind me.

Fred calls both Matilda's parents , grandparents. Growing up as we were in London. They always calls and we did video calls, many times. so I think he has already been accustomed to them.

I watched as both of them bent their waist and kiss his cheeks before Bianca, Matilda's mum carried him in her arms. I watched how she broke into tears and hugged Fred. I watched the scene with a smile. They were my greatest support. I know I might be strong but I don't know whether I would have been able to pull out, especially during my college days.

" Nana!" I heard a scream but before I could even react. Someone hugged me which made almost loss balance but I managed to regain my balance.

Without being told, I already knew who it is.

I hugged her back and we both broke down in tears after some time, I withdrew from the hug.

" Nana, I can't believe it. I'm seeing you again after many years. So I'm not going to be lonely again." her words made a smile an

embrace my face.

" As if you have been lonely?" I asked with a smile.

" Turn around let me see you, babe, let me know if you have been feeding well. Have London been good on you?" she asked turning me around. I laughed out.

" Of course, London can't belittle a hero like me. " I said making a superpower poise.

I pulled her into another warm hug " I missed you." I said

" I also missed you nana. I won't face any more lonely days here. " I pulled away and snorted at her words.

" As if am going to believe that but don't worry. We gonna rock New York." I said with a smile.

" Ya, we......" we both turned hearing someone clearing voice behind us. We both turned. I almost shrieked in embarrassment. In the cause of taking with Matilda. I have forgotten about her parent who seems amused rather than neglected.

Both had warm smiles on their faces which made me happy.

" Mum, Dad?" I called softly. A blossoming smile embraced Bianca's face.

Our families were very close when my parent was alive. Both of them were my Godparent. They were there for me after my parent's death and before Amanda's arrival.

" Come my daughter let me hug you." I moved closer to her.

Without a second thought. She pulled me into a heartwarming hug of a mother.

" Have you been doing well?" she asked after she pulled away and scrutinized my face checking every little detail. I smiled back warmly.

" Dad?" I looked at him and gave him a warm hug. He patted my back with a smile.

" Enough of the emotions. Let's go inside and prepare a portion of good food for the both of you," she said with her enchanting smile which was always infectious.

Finally, I'm back in the country. There is a lot to do and find out.

I groaned in pain as a great migraine hit me.I groan again and held my head slightly as I managed to sit up. My stomach rumbled as great nausea hit me. I covered my mouth and took a deep breath to shove it down. I held the edge of the bed and managed to stand up even due, my leg wobbled.
