Chapter No 24 Rainbow can’t be touch

She was dialing Easton’s number throughout the night and the person sleeping next to her was snoring in deep sleep. She gives him a sigh.

At-least he did save me.

She did not even ask his name, but he helped her. She does not want to take any more favors so she decides to leave as soon as dawn. She was trying to communicate with Easton, she wanted to know the reasons, he was not responding. Irritated, she threw the phone on the table.

“He had many girls in his life, was I any other girl in his life?” she thought bitterly.

“He has to give me some answers,” she thought angrily.

She got out of bed and stood up, but her feet refused to take her weight. She was about to fall when she grabbed the nearby lamp stand but it had also refused to give her support and she fell over the bed again. The lamp stand fell over the floor making a loud noise.

He was startled.

“What happened? What happened?” he asked, looking around, he woke up from a deep sleep.

She felt embarrassed. He looked at her, who had fallen over the bed and his hand reached towards his head in disappointment.

“Kitten, what are you doing this much early? Trying to walk again despite having told you that your feet are swollen, it will take some time to recover,” he said while shaking his head.

She got up and sat cross legs on the bed checking her feet were swell.

He got out of bed and bent in front of her and slowly touched her feet.

“Kitten, it will take some time for you to relax” he said.

“I, I want to use bathroom” she said hesitantly.

A flirtiest smile appeared over his face.

“Your slave is sitting in your feet my Queen,” he said, spreading his arms. She rolled her eyes.

She tried to get up again but in vain.

He stretched his hand in front of her, she looked at him but then she held his hand. He helped her get up and took her towards the bathroom; he got out and closed the door behind her.

He stood there until she knocked the door, he helped her towards the bed.

“So kitten, how are you feeling now?” he asked smiling.

“Why are you calling me kitten?” she asked.

“Because I found a homeless kitten in the street” he said, showing his teeth. She had an urgent urge to hit him with a pillow but she remained quiet.

“So what is your name?” he asked.

“It’s Matilda, and yours?” she asked.

“This Handsome man is known as Manfred” he said while putting his hand over his chest. She rolls her eyes.

“Thanks for saving my life” she said.

“Thank God my Queen agrees over the fact that I rescued her. Oh God my purpose on earth is over” he said dramatically while looking up. She laughs.

“You know what? You are the champion of flirting, `` she said laughing.

“For a kitten I could be a lion” he said while flirting.

“I prefer a mice” she said. He made a puppy face, and she laughed hard.

“So Matilda, can I ask what you were doing on the streets?” he asked. She had gone frown, there were saddened expressions over her face.

“What happened?” he asked.

“My boyfriend has left me, I should have known that all that bullshit love romance and any other shit like that are just fucking fantasy, I trusted him and he left me without a single word” she said crying. For the first time in his life he felt sympathy for a girl. He moves closer to her and softly hugs her. She was crying hysterically.

“Hey, it’s all right kitten, you will be fine, now let me get you something to eat you must be hungry” he said while holding the receiver from the table. She smiles.

He orders food and hangs up.

“Thanks for everything, I don’t even know you and you are doing this much for me” she said smiling.

“No need for it, all I need is a kiss” he said while looking inside her eyes. She had horrible expressions. He brought his lips near to her and she felt her heart jump. He burst into laughter.

“Look at you, you are looking at me as if I am the rapist here,” he said laughing with tears in his eyes. He picked up the pillow and hit him this time. He catches the pillow within time.

“I am trying to communicate with my friend, but he went on some stupid trip, when I am able to contact him, I will pay you everything you did for me” she said while looking inside his green eyes. He had serious expressions.

“You said this to me today, but don’t use that sentence again” he said while raising his finger,

“I might be a womanizer, the most flirting guy, a complete dick on the planet but I am not that idiot that I would leave a girl on the streets to die” he said with cold expressions. She smiled.

“So how come you are here in this town” she asked.

“My Granny has sent me here for some stupid business lessons” he said air quoting.

“Your Granna? You were talking about her when you said she told you about soup, you seem a bit close to her,” she said,

“Yeah I am, after my mum she raised me since then she is everything to me” he said smiling. She smiles in return,

“So you are planning to stay here?” she asked.

“Nope, I am staying here due to the storm, after the storm I have to go to my property” he said.

“Your property?” she asked.

“Yeah, I am the heir of top industries in Spain” he said expressionlessly.

By hearing the word Spain was enough for her to feel heartache.

She did not speak which he noticed.

“What happened?” he asked.

“Nothing, just a slight head ach” she said.

“You must have caught flu, I have order the soup, you will feel better,” he said and she fake smiled.

“How would I be normal again, I have touched the rainbow, Rainbow of love only few can touch it and then I fell from the sky, how would I feel okay?” she thought.

“Where will you go?” he asked.

“I will take a loan from my friend for a while and after that I will rent a house until I find a new job” she said while passing her fingers through her head.

A beautiful necklace was shining in her neck with Matilda written over it. The storm’s sound could be heard in the silence. She looked at the window. Her expressions were colder.

“Do you miss him? Still?” he asked. She looked at him.

“He broke my heart,” she said in a whisper. He felt sorry for her. Something lit up in his head and he got up and went towards his luggage. He picked up a red knitted sweater, it was beautifully knitted. He wore it and walked in front of her. There were Christmas trees and horses engraved over it. She looked at him and burst into laughter.

“What is this?” she asked while laughing.

“My Granny has made this for me, she asked me to wear it over charismas,” he said while pointing at the sweater.

“I swear I will die of laughter” she said laughing, he looked at her.

“At least this made you laugh” he said while taking off the sweater.

“Your Granna is such a great and lovely woman, she made this for you” she said smiling.

“Do you have Granna?” he asked. This was another painful question.

“Yeah I do, but that does not matter because I don’t know her any longer” she said, smiling bitterly.

“What why?” he asked worriedly.

“For different reasons” she said.

The food was served. He really has ordered a lot of things.

“Whoa, How am I supposed to eat this much?” she asked.

“Well I am hungry and as for you I am sure you are never gonna miss this delicious food” he said. She smiles and starts eating.

***********

Three days have passed since she was living inside that motel. He was a good man and he was taking good care of her. She felt as safe as she would feel with Ivan.

“Thank God, you have helped me” she said in a whisper. He went outside to buy few things,

She grabbed her phone and started dialing his number. That night in the storm, her phone was damaged and now it was operating on a loudspeaker.

She was hopeless that he would pick her phone up but after a few rings he received the call.

“Hello Easton? Where are you? Please tell me what happened? I went to the office to ask about you, but they have not let me in. Please tell me what happened?” she asked.

“Hello who is it?” there was some girl on the other side,

“I demand your name, woman?” asked the girl angrily. She looked at her phone.

“Easton darling there is some idiotic woman, who is gibbering some shit” said the woman.

“Nah that must be my stupid fling, she must want money, I will transfer it to her” Easton’s scatterbrained voice appeared on the phone. He was drunk and it seemed as if they had gotten intimate. She felt her heart shattered into pieces.

He opened the room and got inside when he heard a man’s voice.

“Listen girl whoever it was, I don’t have time for this shit right now” he said on the phone and hung up.

The phone fell from her hand.

“How could you?” she said in a whisper.

Manfred walked towards the bed where she was sitting. She rested her head over her hand and was now crying slowly.

Manfred has given her a sigh.

“Crying for that piece of shit?” he asked. She looked up, he was staring at her.

“I loved him and he broke my heart” she said with tears in her eyes.

“I have heard how much love he has for you Kitten” he said while looking inside her eyes.

“I don’t want to live anymore Manfred, I don’t wanna live anymore” she said while hugging him.

He was mollifying her.

“It’s okay, you have to be strong” he said in a whisper.

“Come on, let me check your feet” he said and bends down. Her feet are now not swollen.

“Lets check if you could walk” he said, she held his hand and tried to get up, she was not feeling painful.

“That’s a good girl now you are able to walk, see time heals everything” he said a deep sentence.

“Hey do you like skating?” he asked.

“Amm I don’t know skating” she said awkwardly.

“No worries, I will help you” he said.

“But Manfred I don’t want to go” she resists.

“Oh come on you got life and don’t break the heart of this handsome man” he said while making a puppy face.

She laughs.

“Fine, I will come” she said.

“The clothes are there” he said while pointing at the bag,

“What? Have you brought me clothes?” she asked, astonished. “You really are doing too much, making me embarrassed” she said while looking.

“Hey don’t feel that way, all I am doing is to feel happy” he said.

“Where are we going?” she asked while going inside the bathroom.

“Towards the skating puddle” he said loudly.

She was wearing white shirt, when the necklace she was wearing fell down. She bends to open it.

“Even if you have forgotten about me, I will never forget about you” she said while touching her stomach.
