Chapter 7 7

I heard my father calling me, breaking my thoughts.

"Elise, are you happy with your gift?"

"I'm very happy, Dad. Thank you so much."

"You can use your car now, dear."

"Thank you, Dad."

I immediately got into the luxurious car, settling into the comfortable seat and gripping the steering wheel. It felt so real.

"This is amazing."

I touched the car window, explored every feature inside, and felt delighted. I inserted the key, turned it, and heard the car engine start. I took hold of the steering wheel, it was my first time.

"I'm so happy to have everything I ever wanted. Thank you, Dad."

I smiled with joy, pushed the gas pedal, and began driving. I was quite scared because it was my first time, but the car seemed to move on its own, making me feel safe.

"This is a smart car, it can move on its own."

I spent half the day exploring the city and returned to the mansion at 7 PM.

"Oh no, I forgot about my sibling."

I was shocked as I had left my sibling alone in the mansion. I rushed back home and found both my parents inside, hugging and cuddling each other in the mansion.

"Thank goodness they made up, and Mom understood her mistake."

I got out of the car and lowered my head, feeling guilty for forgetting my sibling.

"Dad, I'm sorry for forgetting about my sibling."

Mom gently stroked my head while holding my sleeping sibling in her arms.

"What are you saying, my child? Your sibling was with us, Mom brought them to the office."

I was quite surprised and stunned. How could they bring a young child to the office?

"What? How can you bring a child to the office?"

"Elise, your father and I have discussed this. I don't want you to be responsible for your sibling anymore. You deserve to have your own life, and taking care of your sibling isn't your responsibility, it's mine as your mother."

I was overjoyed. I never expected this mansion would bring so much happiness and make my mother understand my feelings. We all hugged each other like a happy family, and even my parents weren't angry with me for coming home late and losing track of time.

Here is the English translation of the provided Indonesian text with correct grammar:

"How about it, are you happy using your car?"

"I'm very happy, thank you, Dad."

"What about the teenage party?"

I widened my eyes, smiled with great happiness. My mother used to never allow me to go to teenage parties and drink alcohol. She would even get very angry if I came home late. My father, on the other hand, was always too busy with work and didn't pay much attention to the family. But now, because of this mansion, everything has turned into the family I always wanted.

"Can I go there, Mom?"

"Of course. You should enjoy your time, my dear."

"Thank you, Mom."

My mother helped me choose an outfit. I picked a very nice one with long pants because my mother didn't allow me to wear short skirts.

"Look, you look very beautiful."

I smiled happily, seeing the amazing transformation in myself, which made me look very pretty, and the outfit I was wearing was also very nice. I drove my car.

"Elise, your father and I are going to a friend's house, so you can come home whenever you want."

I smiled happily. My parents had given me freedom so far.

"Goodbye, Mom, I'm leaving."

I drove my car and left the mansion, leaving my parents behind and having fun with my friends.

"Wow, this place is amazing." I smiled, looking at the twinkling lights and loud sounds coming from outside.

I entered the amazing night party venue, my eyes sparkling from the dazzling lights trying to enter them.

"Hey."

I turned to see a handsome man who touched my shoulder, he looked awkward.

"Hi, what's your name?" I smiled friendly at him.

"I'm Arnold, you're very beautiful."

"Thank you, I'm flattered by your friendly attitude. Hey, can we be friends?"

"Sure, let's be friends."
