Camila's P.O.V
' Camila! ' I heard my dad call me.
' Yes dad ' I yelled as I got up from my bed and ran outta my room. I ran all the way down the stairs till I got to the living room.
' Camila I've told you not to run down the stairs again, you could trip and fall ' My mom cooed.
' Mum, I'm a be girl okay, I can't fall ' I said with an eyeroll.
' Yeah, yeah you say that every time ' My younger brother chipped in as he came out of the kitchen with a bowl of flakes in his hands
' Diego!' i half yelled.
' That's my name I guess ' He said nonchalantly.
Yeah, that's my brother, always getting on my nerves. Even though I'm three years older than he is, he always act like we are age mate. Like I'm twelve and he's just nine for fuck sake.
I opened my mouth to get back at him but was interrupted by my dad.
' Okay, can you both quit this?' He asked with a sigh looking from me to Diego.
' Dad he started it ' I said pouting my lips.
' Just leave him okay?'
I took a glance at my Diego and saw him sticking his tongue out at me, then I gave him the middle finger.
' Camila! ' My mum said sternly.
' Sorry mum ' I said with a giggle.
She hates it when I do that, but I can't control it, like I'm so used to it.
' Okay I'm off to the Salvadors ' Dad said as he stood up.
' Dad, dad...' I ran up to stand in his front and he looked at me puzzled.
' What is it?' He asked.
Then I quickly brought out my girly charm and held him by the arm as I looked up at him.
' Dad can I come with you?' I asked with pouted lips.
' What? Why do you want to come?'
' I just wanna come with you, It's better than been here and stuck with Diego ' I said the last part loud enough for my brother to hear.
' No you can't' He said and made to leave but I pulled his arm hard.
' Dad, please, please, pleeeease....'
' Fine ' He said with a sigh.
' That's it? I can come?' I asked with a tone of excitement.
' Not like I have a choice ' He mumbled.
' OMG! Thanks dad, let me go get dressed...I'd be right back ' And with that I ran upstairs to my room.
' Sergio is she gonna let you concentrate over there ?' I heard my mom say behind me.

I got dressed and together my dad and I left for the Salvadors'.
' Woah! ' I exclaimed as we got closer to the Salvadors house, their house was really big. I swear my house wasn't even up to a quarter of this.
My dad horn and immediately the big gate was opened to let us in.
Wait, how did they know we were the one, what if it was some robbers or something, out of curiosity I asked my dad.
' Dad how did they know we were the one?'
' There's a camera just outside the compound and I come here regularly, so they recognized my car. ' He answered.
' Oh! ' I mouthed.
My dad always come here though, he and Uncle Fernando were both furniture designers. Dad once told me that they both grew up together and attended the same school, even though uncle Fernando was from a rich family and dad from a middle class, they didn't let it disturb their friendship. We can say that they are best of friends.
As we drove in, my mouth fell open as I stared at the beautiful structure before me, I literally felt like I was in paradise.
They was a big fountain at the middle of the compound with two bird statues on either side of it. The house it self was...no this isn't a house, it's a...a mansion, God! It was another thing on it's own, It looked really magnificent, like one of those mansions they use in soap operas.
This was actually my first time here...
My dad parked his car in the garage and my eyes widened seeing all the cars there, Oh My God! Do they really own all these cars? Geez! These people are damn rich.
' Ain't you coming down? ' I heard my dad say.
' Huh? '
' You wanna come or not?' He asked again.
' oh! Yeah, yeah...' I said as I hurriedly came out of the car and I ran round the car to meet my dad. He held my hand and we walked towards the mansions .
As we walked closer, that was when I noticed some men in suits around the compound, I was so lost in the beauty of the mansion that I didn't even notice them. They looked huge, guess they are the bodyguards.
' Hey Marco ' My dad waved at one of the bodyguards.
' Hi sir ' He replied.
Yeah I forgot, dad always comes here...I thought with an eye roll.
When we got to the main door, a guard standing beside it, opened it for us and I couldn't help but giggle, I actually felt like I was important.
When we got inside the main house, my mouth fell open at the sight before me, I stared dumbly unable to blink, If I thought the outside was magnificent, then the interior is purely Heaven!
Wait, I'm I dead? I thought as I pinched my cheek hard.
' Ouch!'
Okay, I'm alive...
