โก AngelaโกI was running.Panting heavily.Sweating profusely.I heard a few sounds behind me but at that moment, I did not care.The laces of my sneakers were untied.And my hair flying in numerous directions.I wasn't even looking ahead.That's why I crashed. Hard.And we both fell down."Ouch!" The stranger and I exclaimed at the same time.I fell on top of him, so as of now my head was buried in his chest. (I knew it was a he because he didn't have boobs, nor did his physique match a girl’s). He was fit. And muscular. And seemed quite tall. But I didn't care about any of that, at the moment, I just cared for the headache I have been granted because of his rock-hard chest. Ow!"Are you just going to stay here or are you going to move? My back's hurting," I heard a deep, husky voice say.Dude, stop! I’m having a moment here.
โกAngelaโกI did a happy dance when I brought the groceries home, seeing the guests haven't arrived. My mom didn't scold me as well for being late, which was a good thing. But, it all went to drain when I asked mom that why have the guests not arrived?"Sweetheart, they don't arrive until seven, go get refreshed and ready," my mom informed me before taking the groceries to the kitchen.
โกAngelaโก"Again?" I whined, "But mom, I just went grocery shopping a week ago!""So?" My mom shrugged, "We need some more things, like I need some pizza sauce if I'm making a pizza. And I also need some milk, yeast and cheese and all the things which are written there. You didn't bring them last week."My jaw dropped and I sighed dramatically, "Why, mother? Why must you do this to me? Do you not love me anymore?" I looked at her, feigning a crying face, to which she gave me a look and I straightened immediately."Ok, ok. I'll bring everything. But why didn't you tell me I had to bring all that, last week?"My mom rolled her eyes at me,"To torture you, honey.""WHAT? MOMMM!""Angela! We were in a hurry. I sent you grocery shopping two hours before the guests arrived!" she scolded me, folding her hands around her chest.She had a point. But the matter now is, that I don't wan
RECAP:I tried to look more closely and moved a little forward but unconsciously dropped a tin can which caught the attention of the other man. My eyes widened but not at the fact that I had been caught but at the fact that I knew that guy.Slowly, I made my way towards him."K.C, is that you?"***** โกAngelaโกI was staring in shock at the guy in front of me. What is he doing here? Where was he all this time? How? Many questions were running wildly through my mind. I just couldn't believe he was here, in front of me, in flesh. But the main question running through my mind is 'how the hell is he alive?' We all saw him die.But for this while, everything aside, a smile touched my lips as I ran forward and hugged him tightly."YOU'RE ALIVE!" I couldn't help but shout."Ange-" he tried to speak but I cut him off.
โกAngelaโกI'm a barbie girl,in a barbie world.Life in plastic,it's fantastic.You can brush my hair,and dress me everywhere…Imagination…Huh? Who's ringing me this early?I groaned as I realised that it's not my phone but my alarm clock. Whoever set this song on my alarm clock must've been hell bent on taking revenge from me? But who in the h*ll would do this to me? I whirl through my brain to get a memory of someone who could do this when I heard a 'boo' above me and I shrieked loudly, falling off the bed in process.Ow! My back left this world early. I'm backless, now!"Ahahahah!" I heard a person laughing. I yawned loudly before I open one eye and looked at the culprit.NO!I couldn't believe my eyes.What is
โกAngelaโก"Time for school, Angel!" mom called out, lightly knocking on my door, standing on the doorway, smiling."Mom, do I have to?" I asked, pulling my face out of the comforter."Yes, you do. Otherwise, you'll miss out.""I'll ask Dylan to cover me up!" I told her, turning back to sleep again."Angela, get up!""But, mom--""No excuses, darling!" There was no going back. But atleast I could try a bit."Mom, *cough* *cough*, I dont... think I'm feeling that good," I faked being sick by masking my voice. This was the last straw."Alright, fine," Phew! "I can tell Mason to go back."I gasped, suddenly remembering our conversation from last night.Flashback:"Mason?""Hey," he smirked, "Angela."He spoke my name slowly as if teasing me. Ok, I know my mom was shouting my name loudly and that's how he knew.
โกAngelaโก
๐Angela๐ Mason came home the next evening with a grave mood. I was worried something happened while he was at work. Something was off with him, he was giving clipped off answers to my questions. Did he fight someone? Did someone hurt him? Ok, this sounded absurd because he was a strong, sturdy man himself and I bet he could fight five people at once. I felt sad when he just went to his room without saying anything. He wasn't usually like that. No matter what happened, at the end of the day, he would always give me a smile. He didn't even eat anything. I was worried and hurt by his behavior. Him ignoring me is not what bothered me, what bothered me was that he knew, he knew I had been waiting for him. I missed him. I want to know the reason, the cause of this behavior. If something is hurting him, I want him to share it with me. But right now, I felt so worthless. Like I was just a burden at him. A little girl who needed protection because she was so weak to protect herself
"No." Startled by the third voice that spoke, we both turned our head towards the figure that came running towards us. Dylan.Worry and fear etched his face, and he was breathless by the time he reached us. The tone of his voice, the worry, and his untimely interruption indicates something big. Something that could either be a huge problem or lead to it. But whatever it was, it had shaken him up pretty badly. Watching him, I clenched my own jaw. He had interrupted a very special moment but I trust my men and I know whatever it was must be really alarming. They know what today's date meant to me. Unless it wasn't big, they would've never intervened. "Mason," he stopped near me, trying to catch his breath, briefly glancing at Angela who stood there clueless. "Hey, Ang, I've got to borrow Mason for a while.""Uh, yeah sure, you go, I'll roam around here then."As soon as Angel left, his face turned serious again, "Mason, there's a problem.""What?""Someone's gotten into our territor
๐Angela ๐ And as if a sudden realization hit my mind, my eyes grew big. Was this...? "C'mon Angel, I didn't plan this for myself," he spoke, leaning towards my ear, "but if you still want to stay close, we can still go back home and--" Before he could speak further, I slapped his arm (even though I knew it didn't even hurt him a little), moving back. Instantly, I missed the warmth of his body but didn't let it show. I was still trying to figure out my new feelings. But this was certainly not the time to assess the reason of my rapidly beating heart. "Ouch!" he rubbed his arm where I slapped him causing me to roll my eyes at his over acting. "Drama Queen," I chuckled, shaking my head and grabbed his outstretched hand as he led me to the dinner table. "Kiss it better?"
Leading her in, Mason felt quite nervous. He didn't know if she'll like anything or not, but he still wanted to give this date, their first official date, a chance. For her. He felt like he was getting the pre-wedding jitters while walking down the aisle. In his mind, he had a scenario of a gust of wind blowing by and destroying his perfect date; the table and chairs flying away, the beautiful fairy lights hanging from the tree, rustling and falling down, the lanterns set up crashing down and the tent he had place infront of a projector, wanting to watch a nice movie with his Angel, flowing away. Clenching his fists, controlling his unpleasant thoughts, he looked at her to see her expressions, he just wanted to focus on her; whether she liked it or not. Nothing else mattered. "I'd like to tell you something, Angel," he started as they neared the gate, "This is my first time taking a girl on a date," he said, nervously rubbing his neck. Surprised, Angela stare
๐Mason๐'Now, I know what I need to do. I need to make everything okay and ask for Angel's forgiveness. I will not lose her, I will make everything alright between us.'***Sitting in my office I was pondering I've the events of yesterday when I received a call."Hello?""Mason! Everything is set as you told us," the voice on the other side whom Mason recognized as Dylan, spoke."Great!" I appreciated, calming my own self down.I swear to God, in all these years of my life, I've never been this nervous.But it was all Angel's doing.Eversince Angel came into my life, my heart has developed this unusual habit of beating fast, uncontrollably fast. I feel like I'm surrounding by certain feelings that I'm unable to shake off me. Everytime Angel is near me, I feel calm; at peace. She my solace. The solution to all my problems.

๐Angela๐"I'm coming to pick you up. Tell me where you are," I was lost at voice when I heard what he said.Trish, Drew and Carl were staring at me, curiously. I signalled them to wait."Um..." I tried to come up with a good excuse. "NO! I mean, I...uh... I can come back on my own, by taking a lift or I can ask--""Angel?""Yeah?""Stop making excuses and tell me where you are! Otherwise, I have my ways to find out where you are."As I heard his firm voice, I knew he would actually do what he said so I gave him the address to Trish's house.And within half an hour he reached there. I had told Carl and Andrew not to come out and Trish came to see me off. I waved at her before settling in Mason's can who had an aloof expression on his face throughout the way.I had my hands settled on my laps with my head held do
๐Angela๐"Say goodbye, girl," he said, maliciously and suddenly a loud gunshot sound echoed across the hall and I closed my eyes, feeling the pain flow through me.But that pain was not of a bullet hitting me, that pain was of me hitting something hard. Ouch!I anticipated blood flowing through my body, my body falling down and me reminiscing the memories of my life, but none of that happened, instead I heard a painful shriek in front of me.I opened my eyes and they widened when I saw the man in front of me lay down on the ground, as dead as a dodo.A laughter spluttered from my throat. "He was trying kill me and he shot himself instead. See," I pointed my index finger at him, "this is what happens when you try to kill me! You kill yourself!""Not really," a voice I was familiar with uttered from behind me.I turned around and saw that Carl was standing in
๐Angela๐The first guy pointed his gun at me. People around me were unaware because they were obviously drunk.I heard a shriek coming from behind me and looked to see Trisha with her hand on her mouth. Andrew was beside her. After hearing her scream people started to notice and soon more screams were heard as they went out, emptying the hall.Hello, people! The gun is pointed at me and even I'm not making a slight noise.Well, maybe that's because you're too afraid to speak now.I felt a little bit afraid, now. Trisha was by my side along with Andrew, now. They were both standing beside me. I never thought that one day I'd be in a situation like this. With a gun placed on my forehead. And my life at stake.
