Nicolas already finished his first tray of order when suddenly he felt a soft hand on his shoulder. He turned his head to check who it was behind him. Immediately he found the familiar silhouette of Ruth behind him.
Ruth asked in a surprised tone, “what are you doing here? Why did you leave the dance floor without telling me?” Then her eyes shifted on the table in front where Nicolas already collected numerous empty glasses of whisky. She asked again but
The tune was so beautiful that it instantly touched Alex's heart. He paused for a few seconds forgetting about everything, even forgetting about Nicholas and his surroundings. He felt like a siren was calling him by playing her beautiful violin. It was a melancholy tune that hit his heart directly.But he overcame the momentary astonishment and placed his hand on the shoulder of the silhouette. Immediately that tune stopped. That person looked
Helen already reached towards the table and with a bright smile, she greeted Lucas. Lucas also replied in a very gentle and polite tone.Helen looked at Daisy and asked in a tired voice, “You are done working? Let's go home then.”
Leaning forward Daisy picked up the bucket from the ground. It was very light and covered with a small velvety piece of cloth. She immediately removed the cover from the bucket and the head of a tiny kitten peaked from the bucket. At first, it growled looking at Daisy. It was indeed scared and maybe it was covered so when it saw someone it felt danger. But when Daisy placed her fingers and started running her fingers through its tiny white furry head, it started rubbing its head against her fingers and a light purring sound came out from its mouth.
Nicolas was staring at Daisy’s face while his both hands were inside his pockets.Daisy mumbled in a low tone, “No I not only hate you, actually I hate you very much.”The tears she was trying to hide still then, didn’t listen t
After class, like always Daisy and Helen were about to return home together so they were waiting for their cab in front of their college gate.A red car exactly stopped in front of Daisy and Helen.
Nicolas and Daisy headed towards the ticket counter. After buying two entry tickets, Nicolas turned to face Daisy. Then with a charming smile, he asked, “Get a grip of your nerves, Scared kitten. It is going to be extremely exciting.”Daisy only rolled her eyes in return. She was still thinking about Nicolas calling her Dumbo.
While holding Daisy’s wrist Nicolas headed outside from that haunted house. Nicolas was walking extremely fast. Daisy felt like Nicolas was kind of dragging her with him. After coming out of that stall, when they reached outside, Daisy asked, while panting, “Why you were dragging me, Nick? Can’t you just walk like a normal human?”“I can but I didn’t want to spend a single second there. How dare that boy was
Taking slow steps while enjoying every single drop of rain that was drenching Daisy’s head to toe, Daisy crossed the empty road and headed towards the small lawn exactly at the opposite of their car.A huge and quite old banyan tree was standing along owning a huge part of the lawn. There was nothing except that tree. Facing the sky Daisy closed her both eyes and opened her both hands. It was raining cats and dogs. Nicolas shouted scrolling down the window of the front seat, “Daisy, it is raining heavily. Have you gone crazy?”
“Mom, you are looking so beautiful. I am worried that you will steal the limelight tonight.” “You little punk! Are you jealous of your mom now?” Daisy asked teasingly while combing the raven black hair of Dawn. Dawn was looking like a little male doll in the fancy black tuxedo. He looked more like Nicolas in that formal clothes. “Of course I am. if you steal all the attention then nobody will look at me, “ Little Dawn complained while caressing his mother’s cheeks. But after a tiny pause, he added while pulling Daisy’s cheeks, “So soft. My mommy is the best.” Giggling Daisy patted her son affectionately. Then placing a quick kiss on dawn’s cheek, she stated, “And you are the most handsome boy here. Happy Birthday, my little dawn. Mom loves you the most. Now go and attend to the guests. Granny is waiting for you i
“Who are you?”With a charming smile, Nicolas knelt in front of the little boy and picked him up from the ground. Then place a small kiss on his chubby cheek, Nicolas replied, “I am your mother’s friend. You can just call me Uncle.”“Mother’s friend! My mother never talked about it or I have never seen you in my house. Why should I trust you? Mom said not to talk with strangers. What if you are also an evil stranger who wants to steal me,” the kid immediately complained, pouting his lips. But his eyes were scanning Nicolas’s face, after a little pause, he added with a relaxed expression on his face, “But you don’t look like a kidnapper though.”“Really? So how do I look?” Nicolas asked with his mysterious smile. He just met with the
“At last I found you.”Startled, Daisy looked back and saw Nicolas was staring at her with a devilish smirk on his face. She saw the heart-rending tenderness of his gaze. Daisy immediately tried her wrist to set free from his grip forcefully but his grip was so strong that all her attempts went in vain.“Don’t try. I am not going to leave your hand anymore,” Nicolas murmured in his low and weak tone. There was a maddening hint of arrogance in his tone.“Let my hand go. Why are you awake? You should be sleeping to recover first,” Daisy replied in a shaky tone, inhaling sharply. The sudden touch of Nicolas caught her off-guard, making her shiver in familiar awareness.Pulling her a little closer to his body, Nicolas whispered, stil
(6 years later. In Santa Ana)“Madam, a new patient has arrived from an accident case. He has lost too much blood and is in critical condition. You have to come,” A nurse in white dress entered inside the cabin and stated in an impatient tone. From her tone, it was clear that she was in a hurry.“But my working hours are over already. It is midnight already. Where is Dr Park? Contact him and ask him to come,” the lady doctor replied while packing her bag. That day was quite a long day for her. She had six long surgeries that day and then checked on the other patients. So she was already too drained after so much work.“Hello, Dr Park, there is a new patient. Come as fast as possible. He has already lost too much blood,” the nurse already started calling when the lady doctor came o
Where is Nick?”“Nick is not here. He left the moment he saw the video,” Jason replied, looking at Daisy with startled eyes. Along with Daisy, Helen also entered the room.Grabbing Daisy’s wrist, she stated, “Daisy. I am sure that Nick is working on finding the truth behind it. You just calm down and wait for him.”“I am already calm. Just tell me where is Nick?” Daisy murmured impatiently.Alex replied from behind in his calm tone. “He is on the rooftop. But I will suggest that you shouldn’t meet him.”But even before Alex could finish his sentence Daisy started running in the direction of the rooftop. On the way, she collided with a few students from th
With the loud sound of the alarm on her phone, Daisy woke up from sleep and found herself on the bed of the hotel room. Squinting her eyes several times sleepily, Daisy sat on her bed, rubbing away the sleep from her eyes.“Ugh! My head! What’s wrong with it!” Daisy murmured while holding her head. Her head was feeling extremely heavy at that moment and it was hard for her to open her eyes properly.Checking the room with a glance, Daisy decided to sleep again. There was no sign of Helen in the room. Even her bed was neatly organized so it was clear that she didn't return yet and the clock was showing only 7 am.Daisy laid down again and instantly fell asleep. The heat of her body already reduced at that moment but her cheeks were still red like tomatoes and there was a small red hickey
Blood! Crimson Blood soaked the yellow t-shirt of Jason.When Daisy, Nicolas, Alex and Helen reached outside the hotel, they found Jason lying under the shade of an empty shade of a closed food stall. There were rarely any visitors on the road at such late hours of the night.Jason was lying in a pool of blood, pressing his right hand on the wound of his left hand which was bleeding badly.“Jason! Oh my God! You are bleeding so badly,” Helen cried, kneeling next to Jason and pulling his head on her lap.“Let’s take him back inside the hotel. He can’t walk as his left knee is also injured so we have to carry him,” Alex stated, standing next to Nicolas who was examining Jason with a curious and worried expression.
As the first ray of the sun fell on Daisy’s face, squinting and blinking her eyes several times, Daisy, at last, managed to open her eyes. Sleepily she turned her head and found Nicolas’s handsome face just inches away from her.He was still asleep but his one hand was wrapped around her waist and they both were sleeping only in their undergarments. A sly smile curled up Daisy’s beautiful lips as the memories of last night flashed back in her mind. Last night was really special for her, different from any other nights of the past. She never felt Nicolas so deeply like she felt last night.After staring at his handsome face for quite a long while caressing his cheek, Daisy set herself free from his embrace as carefully as possible, not to wake him up and then stood up.Instinctively her eyes shifted
“Sorry!”Alex immediately interrupted them, while dusting the sands from his clothes.Then while stretching his body and yawning tiredly, Alex added, “No way I can stay awake anymore. I am also returning to the room.”“Ok, then Daisy and Nick have fun on the beach. We will just head back to our rooms,” Jason replied excitedly while dragging Helen along with him.Nicolas immediately asked in a confused tone, “Then where will we go?”“Exactly? Do we have to share a room with Alex?” Daisy asked in a confused tone.With a gummy smile, Jason answered back while scratching the back of his head, “Yeah! Something like
