Why belongsTo child model got from parent model isn't of DS.Model type

I am trying to access a related(belongsTo) model from the parent model. In a component I am receiving this top level employee model and there I am trying to access address model as below.

this.get('employee').get('address')

but the address object I received is not of Model type, so I am not able to call any Model function on it. Surprisingly this.get('employee') returns a model object and i am able to call any Model function using it.

Complete Employee model is as below

export default DS.Model.extend({
  serialNo: DS.attr('string'), 
  name: DS.attr('string'), 
  address: DS.belongsTo('employee/address')
});

and the address model is

export default DS.Model.extend({
  addressId: DS.attr('string'),
  streetNo: DS.attr('string'),
  city: DS.attr('string'),
});

it would be better if you share complete file of both models Employee and Address models.

employee= DS.Model.extend({
 serialNo: DS.attr('number'), 
 name: DS.attr('number'), 
 address:  DS.belongsTo('address', { inverse: 'employee' }) ,
 });

Address model should be something like that

 address= DS.Model.extend({
     employee:  DS.belongsTo('employee', { inverse: 'address' }) ,
     });
