I stared weirdly at her 'Yeah if my prince is an alien living in snow. Why not?' I answered. She is always excited about these lovey-dovey stuff. Teeangers!!
'You really dream about Aliens?' she asked looking at me questionably as seems to judge my maturity level.
I don't know how I can explain the thing I saw that day on those snowy mountains. I can't even tell if it was real or just my imagination but that feeling of being stared at was too real to be a child's imagination. So, calling it an alien for now is good enough.
I was never good in the area of romance. Every time I look at boys around me instead of love I feel disgust. May be alien is my choice.
I grabbed the towel and entered shower having a good relaxing shower finally brought my mind at peace. Its the only place where I can get some 'my time' or so what I thought. Just when I was thinking of peace she called again.
'Luna' trisha called reminding of the schedule. Yes I know we are getting late but give me some time lady. This early to bed, early to rise girl never leaves me alone.
'I am not sleeping' I answered from inside loud enough to let her know
I got out in towel and started putting on my clothes. Today's outfit is a comfortable baggy white T-shirt and my favourite denim shorts in which I can easily move around. Trisha was straightening her hairs near the dresser so there was not much space for me to use.
Today is our trip day outside as a member of Eco group. My love for nature brought me in this little community out of all those clubs I could choose from this school. I went for this Eco club and of course dragged my friend into this trip too.
After days of growing saplings in the campus and nearby area, marking tea trunks with numbers. Putting boards with the species names around the school yard. It was finally time to go together on a trip to a reserve forest to make some observations of the biodiversity there which can also be used in my project.
Even though I am serious about my studies and love to learn new things, I am still unsure about my career. There's so much I wanna be a forest officer that can help Various species, a veterinarian to cure their illness or someone more who can make this world more better for the co-existence of various species together.
I looked at the clock it was eight already I need to speed up. We promised to meet at eight thirty outside the gates. Trisha was all set packing our stuff.
That's what you get Luna for staying up late till dark. Combing my hairs into a ponytail, I fixed my shorts. Grabbed my shoes and put them on.'Here' trisha came and shoved some bread into my mouth. I guess every group has this one mother figure and she is ours.
The door was knocked or one can say banged form outside and from this particular style of harassment of my door I knew who it was.
Trisha opend the door and just as I guessed, the tall blonde entered thorough it. Her curled blonde hair swayed as she looked around the room with her icy blue eyes. Who she was? Well another one of my limited friend.
'You guys when the fuck are you coming outside?' Nina asked folding her hands. She was wearing a yellow crop top with a ripped blue boyfriend jeans.
Her eyes examining both of us and her expressions judging our status. Seeing me still getting ready in front of the mirror she sighed.
I quickened my pace as I didn't want to get scolded by this hot head. I fixed my pony tail and put on my glasses back.
Nina walked close to me in her flat sandals, she really didn't need heels. She stood behind me and started coming my hairs from behind. Meticulously she also fixed my fringes and tucked some of them behind my ears.
Trisha brought some breakfast for us, thank god I was so hungry. They both liked pampering me not because they love me so much, which they actually do but mostly because they think me as a child something they remind me of all the time.
'Here eat something for breakfast' trisha offered us some sandwich.
'Thanks' me and Nina replied together. After filling our pallet we were ready to step out. I grabbed my bagpack and put away all the plates can't let trisha trisha do everything.
We all walked downstairs passing through many other students wearing casual clothing as its sunday today. I nevee knew students roam around on holidays as I usually don't step out on these days. It a different experience today.
Many girls waved a hello to Nina to which she replied back with a smile exchanging some greetings with them. Nina was the popular girl with a beautiful face and a sporty body. She was the captain of our school's softball team.
I am not a sports lover but play sometimes when forced by her. We reached the grounds and sun rays finally hit my eyes making me blind for few seconds.
Everyone was already waiting outside standing near the mini bus. Five members of eco club and our trio quite a party. Oh and our clubroom teacher too I always forget about the presence of Mr. Anthony.
All of them looked at us as we came out of the door.
'You know what's the time?' jack questioned
'Nina you went back to bring them or waste time together' Emily questioned with a smiling face mocking Nina. They are not on such good terms.
'Sorry guys couldn't resist Trisha's sandwich' Nina apologize looking at jack completely ignoring Emily.
'Hey guys come on get in'
The drama was starting and before it could escalate Rick called out to us urging us to get in the bus quick.
The day was bright going well people going through work. Staff sitting in their cabins witg eyes dead straight on the screen of computer in front. People going around with files in hand discussing work with eacg other.Few floors above in a well lit furnished room with minimal decoration there was a man sitting on a chair. His steady hand firmly signed through few papers it's been hours since those eyes were focusing on papers.The room was quiet sunlight entering through thw window making the scene feel peaceful.The table was filled with files and that man keep opening those writing notes inside. His fingers moved up to massage his temples.Getting up from the chair and Walking over the carpet over the marble flooring he reached the floor to ceiling tall window.His fair firm hands loosened the knot of his blue tie hanging from his neck loosening the shirt's collor. He tilted his head tousling his soft black hairs. His amber eyes lo
Here goes nothing..."The more you say The less I know...Wherever you stray I follow..." 🎶Everybody smiled and joined each other in a low-fi dance as I sing the song.It's fun today so just let's enjoy our little moment.JAIDENThe office's door opened again and Dan entered.'Sir I just got a call informing about some problems in one of our new investment plans' Dan said standing aligned, his eyes looking down straight at Jaiden.'What's the issue?' Jaiden questioned with his casual firm voice still focusing his eyes on the quarterly report in his hands.'Sir, the investment we are planning to make in that new mineral company seems to have some legal loopholes. Sir, I have this report in my hands which I asked people to collect for me. It has all the faults written that we need to check, to prevent any future legal complications' Dan said pas
LUNAThe bus arrived at the destination and now we all stood in front of the start of the forest. Rick stopped the vehicle besides a board that marked the beginning of jungle.'Its right ahead' Rick called out to others sitting at the back of the bus.Everyone was resting as they were tired from their little party, it was already eleven in the morning. Noah and jack were dozing off, Trisha was also taking a nap with her head on my shoulder according to her my small size and height give her a comfortable position to sleep. Great compliment right?Rick's loud voice wake the people at the back and they all started stretching their limbs pumping energy back to their body to start their trip. I also stood up my legs were feeling numb sitting for hours.Nina stood up opening the compartment at the head of the bus, taking out our bags. Trisha also picked up her bag. We all got off the bus after taking our bags. In few seconds the whole gang was outs
In another half an hour they finally reach close to a habitable area which means the village is nearby. 'Mountain range is just few kilo Meters away from here so we can start writing our observations form here onwards' Rick announced to everyone following him. I stopped after his call like others, finally time to rest. He really was in his club president's character today, seeing his dedication one could tell how high their responsibilities are. This area is really beautiful I can see the mountain range ahead, everything is covered with lush greenery. Only thing we need to be very careful is not having any contact with dangerous wild animals, not a very good idea to hang out with them. 'Hey Noah come here it's your time to take pictures of the area' David called out to him. David was a good looking guy his honey colour hairs with hazel eyes really suited his personality. His features were also attractive and the best factor w
At the end, the teams were finalized. Me, Rick and Nina will go on our regular route while others will followup the plant trail.'We will contact you if we find something' I turned and told them before we starts walking again. It's not easy to get signals here but we can still try.David also turned and replied 'Okay, take care'. I am sensing some other pair of eyes looking at me other than David's and even without looking I can those eyes are not friendly. I moved back and joined Rick and Nina I ain't going to look at Emily's ugly expression.We walked along the narrow route taking support of the tree trunks as the surface was slanting with irregular spaces in between. The soil was getting more and more moist.'Here take my hand' Rick offered both of us his hand as it was time to jump off this descending terrain. We took support of his hand and got on the plain ground again.'Just few more meters' he reassured. One th
Sadness covered both their faces with Rick's question 'You are right boy... That is a mine' the elderly replied with a voice of disappointment'The work has stopped for now because of our intervention but we aren't sure how long we can hold on' the younger one continued'This area is under protection they can't mine here we have to take actions to show them their place' I said. These big companies can't exploit these people just because they have a little more money and influence.Just then a huge growling voice roared through the trees from within the forest. 'What was that?' Nina jumped in fear agitatedly looking around for the source of the loud noice.'Some wild animals I think' I said also looking around, the growl brought me to my alert mode. It was loud and gives the feeling like there are more than one around. Gladly the voice was not that close to us so I believe we are safe for now.The old man looked up and
'It all started two weeks ago' Rinshi said 'We all in the village were going through our usual daily life when suddenly a bomb exploded followed by the loud crashing noises of rocks. It surfaced confusion and fear in all of our hearts' He continued talking sitting down on the grass below him We followed his suit and began sitting down on the grass in front of him. I folded my legs and placed myself in a comfortable sitting position. Fixed my eyes on him listening to his words. 'Me and the village head that is my father along with three more people went to check in the direction from where voice came. At first I thought it was a landslide nearby so I alerted the whole village and went to check there with others but it surprised me toc see few people standing there with some big machines and weird small tube like candles scattered around' 'It must be TNT or some type of explosives use to break through the rock surface to create that hole
After discussing our future moves for half an hour, everyone seems satisfied. With a smile they all got up and start moving back to their places to inform others and get their share of work done.I instantly grabbed my bag and began taking out my stationery. For now the plan was for us to prepare posters and other pictorial representations regarding the protest.'Baby, I am dancing in the...'A song started playing abruptly and Nina quickly grabbed her phone. It was her ringtone she was getting a call. Signals are back?'Finally there singals here' she exclaimed happily and picked the call. Certainly a good fortune I dropped my pencil and rushed to Nina still holding my unfinished poster. Rishin nodded at us and also moved out of the house bidding farewell.'Hello? Hey??' Nina start asking on the call'Put it on speaker' Rick said and Nina followed his words putting the call on speaker.'Hello?' on the ot
The icy blonde hairs danced in the air as the white Porsche dashed through the highway moving close towards a curve on the way. He moved his foot from the accelerator to let the car slow down a little as his pale white hand swiftly turn the steering wheel to the right. The car drifted through the curve after crossing it he again hit the accelerator and the car start speeding up again. 'It's way too hot why I decided to wear this suit' Liam complained looking up at the sun shining overhead. It was quite past noon but sun was still shining bright making the day too hot. The summer heat around this area is always a lot. 'My beach shorts were perfect' he added heaving a sigh of regret remember the comfortable shorts hw was wearing lying on the couch but now there's no point complaining. His mood was already grumpy thinking about the remote location he has to go for work. The mountains could be seen now and the green blanket of the forest c
