Chapter 8 New home
Coral looked around curiously as she sat in the car with Sofia.
"Are you taking me to your home?" Coral asked as she looked at Sofia.
"Yeah, child, you can call me Aunt," Sofia replied, trying to control herself. 'Or maybe Mum...'
As the car stopped at a big gate, a guard opened it. Coral saw something amazing: a huge mansion with a huge garden and a beautiful fountain.
Sofia took her inside the house. "Coral, James was trying to find your parents and you... so for now, you can stay with us. Let me show you your room," Sofia spoke excitedly as she pulled Coral up the staircase to the first floor.
On the left side of the first floor, Coral saw a pink door. As Sofia opened the door, she let Coral see the room.
The pink-themed room was decorated with fluffy teddies and dolls, and there was a big round bed in the middle. The huge windows showed a view of the garden, and on the left, there was a bathroom. Special lighting was installed in the room, making it appear brighter and more fairy-like.
Coral's eyes widened as she looked at Sofia with a huge smile. She was wearing a small pink skirt that Sofia had given her, and she appeared like a doll. With excitement, she hugged Sofia.
"I like it sooooooo much... Thank you, Auntie," she spoke as she hugged Sofia tightly and kissed her left cheek.
Sofia felt so happy that the little girl liked the room she had made for her. Her son didn't show affection like Coral did now.
"Well, I'm glad you liked it. You must be hungry, right? I asked Mrs. Lina to heat up breakfast. Let's go downstairs," Coral followed Sofia like a little child, looking around everything with curious eyes and her blue eyes sparkling.
In the hall, Sofia took Coral to the dining table, where breakfast was already served.
The maids were looking at Coral, trying to guess who she might be. With her strawberry blonde hair and blue eyes, wearing a pink dress, she simply looked like a stunning princess.
"Yummy!" Coral exclaimed as she started eating, imitating Sofia. She was surprised by the delicious taste.
"Glad you liked it, child," Sofia spoke with softened eyes.
After eating, Sofia took Coral back to her room.
"Well, this is your room from now on," Sofia said.
"Really?" Coral looked excited and held Sofia's hand.
Feeling giddy, Sofia took her to bed and said, "Coral, can you do something for me? Today was my son's birthday..."
