Ivanna
I take Christian inside the room. The room is bigger than my tiny home. Still, it doesn't have the feeling I would get after reaching my home. It's well organised with all the medical equipment. I should appreciate Adavan's effort.
"The room is nice, no?", I ask Christian.
"Yes", he smiles.
I take him near the bed and help him to sit on. Then I open my bag and arrange my clothes. Christian is taking a nap after a long journey. I don't disturb him.
After twenty minutes he wakes up when I'm busy reading the tasks. I had noted everything the doctor had told me.
"What are you doing?", he asks me.
Ivanna"Let me check", I nudge his hands from my waist and get up to see who is at the door. As I open the door I see a middle-aged man with a food cart. I've seen him before but never tried to know who he is. Obviously, he is one of the servants."Good evening, ma'am. Master has sent some snacks for you. You must be hungry. And please let me know what Christian sir can eat so that I can prepare for him too", he says with a warm smile. But it kinda pisses me off.I look at the cart. There are some fancy pound cakes and a weird type of tea or coffee. I can't exactly figure out what that is."First of all, please take this away. I don't eat any of them. And I'll prefer cooking Christian foods myself", I tell him. "And I'll be having the same food he wil
IvannaSigh! I just escaped from an encounter. I thought things gonna heat up between us again. I was fully prepared to get into a conflict. Thankfully, he didn't lash out. I can see that he is trying his best to improve himself and that's good. I should explain to him my points politely instead of being harsh with him. If he is giving efforts, I shouldn't be ruthless too.While making my way to the kitchen I come out of my thoughts and plan in my mind that what I should make for Christian. I've studied his diet chart well. He is not allowed to eat high-fat foods. However, he loves eating them."Madam", Martha calls me when I'm about to step inside the kitchen. Why doesn't this lady leave me alone? I mutter and turn around. She looks surprised.
IvannaIt leaves me in surprise. I don't know how to react or what should I say. Finding it better to avoid, I strive to move towards my room."Iva", he calls me as I turn to leave. I stand still for a while and then turn back to him. He has already finished the remaining piece. "Come here", he calls me, indicating with his hand. I hesitate to go to him. It's midnight and no one is around us. Moreover, I left Christian alone."Do you want me to come there?", he again asks since I'm not stepping towards him."No, that's...", I mumble and walk to the table. Coming near him, I look up. He points me to sit across him."No, I don't wanna sit. Tell me what you wanna say", I mutter.
IvannaI wake up in the morning with repetitive knocks on the door. I immediately get up and pass a blank look. Christian is moving. Why people here have no sense? Don't they know he is not well? I rush to the door and open it, spotting Martha at the door."Please knock low", I shrug, passing her a strong glare. "He is sleeping""Sorry, madam. I'll keep in mind next time", she bows."That's fine. What brings you here?", I raise my eyebrows."It's already 10, madam. I thought to wake you up since master had told me you had to go to the college", she politely says.Shit! I scream into my mind as I hit on my forehead.
ChristianHonestly, I had never been so pissed on Ivanna like this. She uttered all the rubbish things that I will never like to hear. I can't shout at her, I know she'll cry. But I need to clear some stuff before her now and fit all the facts in her tiny head."I asked who said all the rubbish to you", my voice turns ruder since she doesn't answer me."I just asked", she stammers, lowering her head."So you have so much spare time to think all this?", I shrug. "You think I was looking for someone? I was bored with you?"Her questions rip my heart off. How can she even think like this? I've never thought of another girl. I've devoted myself completely into her. After my parents, she and
IvannaI was hoping to get no interruption now but I think I'm gonna stumble more frequently today. I am about to scream and ask him to shove the car, meanwhile, he gets down and comes to me, lowering his head."Where do you wanna go, ma'am?", he asks, opening the door. I"No, thanks for the concern. I don't need a drive""Master has strictly told us to drop you at your college", he says, still not looking at me."I've talked to your master about it last night. He has told me that he wouldn't interfere with anything. So, please, will you let me go?", I say in a blank tone."Sorry for halting you ma'am", he politely says and gets
"Miss Ivanna, did you notice something weird around you when you were together?", the cop questions."No, nothing weird", she says."Okay. And according to you Mr Christian, you have no rival. Anyway, you guys were at the most expensive resort that night. But you were saying this both of you are students and belong to middle-class families. Can't digest that you can afford such an expensive resort?", he frowns."Actually, it wasn't arranged by us" Iva mutters, she hasn't noticed me yet as I'm at the door."Then?""It was actually....", she strives to say when her eyes reach me. We share blank eye contact. "It was a gift from Mr Adavan on Christian's birthday", she says, looking at me as
Christian"You've grown up so much, babe", I frown, looking at her angrily. She lied to me. What was the need for lying? Moreover, she went to a police bureau first time, alone."I...", she mutters and immediately comes to me. "I knew you wouldn't let me go. So...""So, you will lie?", I glare at her. "Do you think I would force my decision on you? I won't let you go if you asked me? Am I so bad?"I didn't say that", she exclaims."Let it be", I shove her hand from mine. I wonder if she can lie to me without any hesitation, what will she do in future? She can lie on big things and easily hide it behind her smile. And I'm dumb enough to melt.
