Laura's face was so close to Rubin's as she quizzed. Rubin on the other hand, just felt lost in her beauty; he caught his breath as he took in her beautiful features. He felt mute for once and the moment suddenly came to an halt as his eyes traced out her soft round face and her sparkling eyes which seemed to radiate at night. It felt like his first time witnessing such a beauty –He glanced down at her and his heart fluttered; he knew beyond any shadow of doubt that he had fallen in love with the girl in front of him .
For a moment, he felt like cuddling her in his embrace and assuring her beyond every reasonable doubt that he'll be there for her no matter what and will never let go off her hand, ever but on another thought, she was just a ghost– He told himself. How could he had fallen in love with her without knowing.Laura glanced at the suddenly lost young man before her with confusion which was visible enough on her face. She stared closely and snappAudrey, who had all along being waiting for her son for the past hours, glanced at the clock and it was already 11pm yet no sign of him at all. Wondering what had kept him up so late in town, she rose to her full length with a furrowed brow. Anxiety and much brooding combined to shed several kilogrammes of fat from her body."What's going?– He had never stayed out so late like this." She stated and as if on a sudden impulse, gasped with darting eyes. "Or did something really happen to my son?" She cried. Just then, she heard a voice– it was high pitched with laughter and giggles along with chats which sounded like one coming from someone outside the room. She instinctively shuffled to the door and pulled the lace curtains. Audrey peered through the glass window with eagle eyes just then, she noticed a familiar figure in the garden. It was Rubin who seem to be adoring the beautiful evening. Her lips instinctively curved in a smile as she let out a sigh of relie
Ben's accusations spontaneously burst out the wrath which Hansel had suppressed so far and this never missed out on Ben either but he ignored, pressing on his words with tears in his eyes." I know you want her dead for your selfish reasons, dad– Do you ever consider my feelings or what I want! ""Enough! , you ungrateful being! " Hansel furiously snapped as he shook with anger and his words nearly choked him. He still had the murderous look on his face as he stared at the sorrow stricken young man in the distance with indifference, totally emotionless."How dare you raise such treacherous accusations against me– After all I've done for you?" He continued on an impulse and the muscle in his jaw twitched while he clenched his jaw. He was cold and glinted; those steel eyes focused on him, demanding an answer. Ben just stared at him in silence as he moaned, wiping his tears– the pain in his chest exacerbated. He felt those accusing words pointin
Alixies just tossed and turned on her bed, foreboding with the earlier incident at school – flashing back in her subconscious mind. She didn't understand the sudden feeling of empathy and concern she had instinctively felt for Ben when she witnessed the mother, son encounter– She suddenly saw him in a different light altogether and felt there was more to Ben than she had thought.Behind his rude, egoistic and deadly façade, she was convinced, lurked all sorts of uncared wounds and hurt feelings which howled in the wilderness for love yet not found– She felt emotionally attached but the alarm bells in her head kept sounding:"Stay away from Ben, he'll cause you trouble and lots of pain"Just when the thought of his action towards her after she had offered a help, crippled in and she instantly appeared exhausted and emotionally drained in frustration.Alixies spontaneously repositioned the pillow to a more comfortable place and
This directed their gazes back on her. Drake instinctively feigned ignorance, following the gaze of the kids."Well, guys, I think it's time to go now– Come on, let's get going. I'm sure we do not want to get locked in the early morning hectic traffic " She hinted, draping them along as she head out of the house." Aunty – But–Dad" They stuttered with Melissa always cutting in which unables them finishing their statements."We can talk to Dad after school, okay– " She stuttered and howled back at Drake who stared at their back with a sense of relieve as they exited"See you later, bro. Just don't worry about the kids, I'll take care of them""Alright, Lissa– See you later guys. Daddy loves you!" He answered and hovered over to the kitchen afterwards to which he pulled the fridge open and poured himself a glass of chilled water, gulping it all down in a single shot. He stared through the window as their car pulled out of the house and heaved a sigh of relie
Hansel sauntered over to the centre table and whisked off his phone with a creased brow and a racing heart. He felt his heart burning with rage as he dialed the very first number on his call logs. With just a ring, the receiver's voice echoed through." All ears boss" Foil mumbled and Hansel roared."Go and finish off your job and bring back that ungrateful brat to me– I'll teach him not to overstep his boundaries when I'm being nice""Copied – expect a feedback soon" He stated and the line went dead.Hansel stared with unseeing eyes as he felt his hard work to keep his son close to him nearly escalating into flames and fire as the once obedient boy he remote around stood against him with the appearance of her from his past. The thought of this angered him even more– Delia just came out of his past like spectre of vengeance to haunt and destroy his pride which to him, was so unacceptable and he's not willing to risk just the th
Laura and Rubin took the left pavement,leading to the bus stop to catch the early morning bus which travels along the route to their school– Laura kept fretting behind him which made her look a little funny. He secretly glanced at her and smiled to himself, almost with a chuckle. She instinctively glanced up at him and caught him in the act."Why are you laughing? " She asked, pausing in her steps. He instinctively put on a straight face and turned his gaze away from her.Strategically clearing his throat, he answered. " Nothing– I think we should pace up now else we'll miss the bus "With that, he sauntered ahead of her. Laura tilted her head with a sceptical gaze as she stared at his back. She scoffed and raced after her. "Hey, wait up– You better tell me what that was about" She called. Noticing her intention, he raced off with a chuckle to which Laura did same after him."It's really nothing " He laughed.As time went on between t
Rubin scoffed with a sceptical gaze as he settled in his desk with his eyes tailing after her while she approached Fred and Patrick's desk."Is she really serious about this?" He mumbled with feigned confusion, just then, a tap on his shoulder drew his attention."Hey, Rubin –Can I get your history test book?" Raina asked, a broad smile spread through her face. He nodded with a smile and rummaged through his bag for it."Huh, here" He handed it over to her to which she mumbled her thanks and spontaneously returned to her desk. Swiftly turning his gaze back to Alixies, he stuttered."What's up with her?" He shook his head in perplexity, his eyes glued on her. " Why the sudden interest in Ben this morning– thought she was going to ask about Laura instead" He mumbled on an impulse. With a fixed gaze, he stared on with keen interest. Alixies finally closed up on Patrick and Fred who sat opposite each other with their heads buried on their desks. With a ta
Not wasting time, Alixies dragged back her chair, trying her best not to disturb the serene environment in the class as she jerked to her feet– this brought Rubin's attention on her again. He deftly turned his gaze as he lifted his eyes, meeting her creased gaze."Where are you going? " He loud whispered to which she spontaneously replied."Need to run now – got an urgent issue to attend to. Kindly pass by the house with my bag after class, okay? Please.""Is it about that message?" He asked on an impulse. "Or still going after Ben?" With this Alixies sauntered off, ignoring his numerous questions."Hey!–But" He stuttered with his eyes tailing after her, his hand stretched out in an attempt to stop her but they were already few distance apart which made him pause in his words–letting out a faint groan of frustration. Not ready to get everyone's attention, he gave up with his eyes still fixed on the hourglass shaped fair girl, who was
