Christopher Collins is a Dental surgeon working in a famous Multi speciality hospital in New York City. It was morning shift for him that day, so he returned ahead of time in the evening to his apartment, which happened to be a high rise Condominium. When he was waiting for the lift in the lobby, he heard a voice, "Sara don't run"
Christopher turned back to see a little girl of around 3 years running towards the lift, followed by a young woman in her twenties. They stood beside him and waited for the lift to come.
Probably they are returning from an evening walk, he guessed.
All the three entered the lift.
"Which floor?" Christopher asked politely.
After seeing the floor number which was already pressed, the lady turned her face. Chris felt that attitude very rude. Even if they are going to the same floor, at least the lady would have thanked or smiled, he thought.
Then he noticed the little girl, whom the woman is holding tightly. He felt that bruises might come if she keeps on holding like that. But something about that girl attracted him and he started making funny faces at the girl. She giggled. They both stopped after hearing the elevator ding sound.
"Your baby is so cute," he said with a smile.
"I am not her mother; I am her Babysitter," she told in an angry tone and left.
"That was impolite" Poor child, how she is withstanding this lady, I have to inform their parents when I meet, he thought to himself. Thinking of that, he watched them, to locate their unit number, surprisingly they entered the next door. Why I had never seen this angel before? he amused.
Christopher is a person who won't peep into others' matters. But something about this girl Sara is making him, to interfere, which he himself started wondering. Maybe the attitude of the nanny or any other intuition he can't understand. But one thing for sure, when the babysitter was behaving rudely, he can't tolerate it and felt like grabbing the child from her hands and he felt strange for his fondness towards that little girl.
Chris is living in this condo for almost 5 years. He bought this Apartment when he joined his current position and he is still paying the mortgage. He is living alone here. His father died when he was young and his mother married her friend after some years and Christopher was raised by his granny. After his Granny's death, he moved to this place. He has trust problems, after his girlfriend, whom he truly loved broke up with him and married somebody else, he became void of feelings. He is happy with himself and he doesn't want to enter a serious relationship.
The following days, he tried to spot the little girl or her parents, but as he was returning late these days, he doesn't want to knock on their door.
At Sara's bedroom:
"Mommy Princess Story"
"It's late sweetie, I already told you three stories right, now go to sleep, let me tuck you"
"Okie"
After confirming that Sara has slept, Isabella left the room and started working on her laptop, like it was her only lifeline. Bella also felt the rude attitude of the babysitter, so she already enrolled Sara in a Daycare and picked her after office hours.
Isabella Williams is a single mother, who works in a leading marketing company. She lost her parents in a car accident, and after that, she and her sister Margaret Williams were brought up in foster care. After getting jobs, they both lived in their own way. Because of her office location, Maggie stayed at a different location. Bella rented this apartment recently when she moved to this city.
Sara is such a cutie pie, very lively and cheerful girl. Though she doesn't have a father figure, Bella tried her best to avoid the emptiness in Sara's heart. Sometimes she felt sorry for her decision of being a single mother when she saw the longing eyes of Sara towards a happy family.
After being dumped by her boyfriend, Bella took that life-changing decision. Bella was head over heels in love with her boyfriend, Samuel Jonathan. Sam indeed loved her to the same extent, but when the option came to select Bella or marry a Billionaire's daughter, he selected the latter. After her heart-break, Bella became frigid and started concentrating on her career.
She is a reserved person and mostly won't talk or mingle with neighbours. Being single, it is quite difficult for her, as everyone would enquire about the child's father, whom she itself doesn't know.
Bella fixed an appointment with her physician for Sara's vaccination the next day. As they recently moved here, she thought of getting introduced to a physician. The thought of visiting that hospital brought her old memories back, and with complex emotions, she drifted off to sleep.
