When I least expected it, I ended up falling asleep during our trip back home. Because of that, it seemed that the trip had taken very little time.
I was still asleep when we arrived at my uncle’s house and it was almost night.
– Diana\, wake up. – I heard Tobias’ soft voice very low in my ear.
I felt a shiver all over my body when he called me. When I opened my eyes, I saw him so close to my face and I felt that I was blushing because of that.
– You’re red. Do you have a fever? – he said laughing and placing his hand on my forehead.
– Get out\, take your hand off me. – I said pulling his hand away and pouting.
He started to laugh even louder and because of that I got out of the car almost with a jump and started walking towards the house.
– Hey ! You need to help me with the bags. – he said when he realized that I was almost entering.
– Turn around. – I said with a very wide smile on my face and closed the door.
When I looked around inside the house, I realized that there was nothing new inside. Except for one small detail: my uncle had installed security cameras inside his mansion.
I didn’t despair, but I knew that from then on it would be more and more difficult to make him nervous about my powers that he didn’t know were mine.
I was determined to search without suspicion all the cameras that had been installed so I started walking towards the stairs and only stopped when I was startled when I heard a male voice calling me.
– Diana. – when I looked to my left\, I realized it was my uncle’s voice.
His voice sounded deeper. I think it was a consequence of the acid he had ingested and now that his windpipe was healing. Good, it had left at least some sequel.
– Hi Uncle ! I hadn’t seen you. How are you? – I said right away to cover up the scare I had taken.
– I’m fine. I just can’t say much and if the doctor catches me\, he’ll be complaining a lot to me. But tell me\, how was your trip? – he asked me.
– Uncle\, you can’t imagine how good Tobias did taking me to the family’s beach house. The trip was great. – I replied telling the truth. But I confess that I made it sound a lot happier than I was so that he thought his dirty little plan was going as he planned.
As soon as I finished speaking, the doctor was coming down the stairs and because of that my uncle didn’t even make a comment on the matter anymore. He just laughed when I zipped my mouth when I noticed the doctor’s presence.
– Miss King. I didn’t expect you to be back today. How was your trip? – the doctor asked me as he held out a hand to greet me.
– It was wonderful doctor. – I replied while greeting him.
I sat down and we talked about my uncle’s condition. I was not interested in that subject, but I had to keep up appearances.
Shortly after I sat down, Tobias opens the front door of the house and enters carrying my suitcase and his. I felt sorry for him and so I went to help him.
– Didn’t you tell me to turn around? – He asked pouting while looking at me.
– I am a person with a very charitable soul who helps those in need. – I said almost laughing.
He also laughed at my comment and because of that, I had his attention for a while, but when he saw his father sitting in the living room, he ran to find out everything that had happened while he was gone.
I was not happy at all because of that. I took my suitcase up the stairs, but it was too heavy for me to go up alone. I went into the kitchen to ask Rose to help me up and just managed to get to my room.
– Thank you so much Rose. – I said.
– You’re welcome\, miss. – he told me as he started walking to go back to the kitchen.
When I entered my room, the first thing I looked for was some clue about having cameras in my room.
– At least here I will have total privacy. – I said after searching every inch of my room.
In the corridor of the rooms alone there were six cameras.
One at each end of the corridor; at the beginning and at the end, one pointed at the entrance to the three bedrooms and one pointed at the entrance to my uncle’s office.
My uncle was getting better and better over the days according to the doctor. I didn’t want that, but I had no way of preventing him and his health from being further weakened by the damn cameras.
– The next move now will be just to observe. One day I would have a breach and then I will strike the next blow. – I whispered to myself while looking at myself in the mirror.
I went to the bathroom and took a very relaxing shower. When I finished, I put on a sleepwear and lay down on my bed and ended up falling asleep again. But I had left my bedroom door without the lock.
