Wild Winter

[ WINTER ] ★★★★★★

" Hey miss " A man called my attention. I turned around to see who it was.

" Mr. Z by name, I am to pick you up from the airport, order from superior " He introduced himself and stretched out his hands to collect my luggage.

" No thank you " I declined his offer and quickly brought out my phone and called my mother. When she picked, her voice sounded faintly.

" Mum I am at JFK's airport, a man in an all black dress code with a frizzy... " I paused and stole a glanced at him. " A frizzy icy blue hair. He also goes by the name Z. He is also claiming to be the one to take me home " I poured out to her and she told me, the so called Mr Z is Dad's driver and I will be fine.

" Why isn't Dad here to pick me up himself? " I asked her and boom my phone went dead.

" Mister can I borrow your phone? " I requested. Instead of a response, the clown looking man blew a big fat no at me, he grabbed my bags and walked back to the Uber, I couldn't ask my mother why she sounded weak.

" Well, I'm going home after all " I shrugged. I had no choice than to follow the giant ugly faced man.

The car stopped in front of an old house, Mr Z came down from the car and ran to the other side and held the car door wide open bowing his head.

I glared at the creepy ghost ridden house through the rear glass and back at him. " Is this some kind of prank or what? " I asked feeling a little panicked.

" No ma'am. This is your home " He replied still bowing like I am some disney princess.

" Hazel darling! " I heard my Mum calling. I jumped down from the car and ran into her arms.

" My Hazel, I missed you a lot " Mum cried and hugged me tightly to her chest.

" I missed you too Mum " I whimpered and we hugged like couples who just got together after being away from each other for years, until Mr Z interrupted us by clearing his throat.

" Oh Mum do you have any dollar note with you 'cause I don't have a single changed currency with me " I requested as I disentangled myself from her clutch.

" Why do you need some dollars? " She asked.

" To pay this kind young man for getting out of his way to do Dad's job by picking me up from the airport?! " I replied and fold my arms across my chest. "isn't that what you are supposed to do?"

" Thank you Miss but superior will settle me later" He commented and bowed before Mum. "Do you need anything or help ma'am? "

" No Zenzo. My daughter is back now, she will help me out " Mum declined his offer and he walked back to his Uber and drove away.
