I was heading towards my class, with my mind processing every scene of last night. The party, Rob, those words, everything. I don't know what language Loren spoke, neither I remembered the words properly, something like 'leat breath a lin'.

Someone snapped their fingers in front of me, creating a clicking sound that paused my thinking. When I tilted my head up, I found Rob standing in front of me.

  • Unintentionally chased   17. Red lady

    Time ticked and days ran, a week passed. The same thing continued. Going to college, practicing piano and then office. It's been a month since I started working. I am in the office, sitting on the chair and getting bored. Loren isn't here yet. His anger was on the same level this whole week. I took some papers and started making origami.Something should be done to kill this boredom.I made a bird, whose wings flap when its tail is pulled, a frog that jumps. A ball that can be blown and a dragon which does nothing. To draw horror eyes on the dragon, I took an ink bottle and messed up. Turning white paper and my fingers blue. I went to the washroom to wash my hands and saw Loren standing near

    I was on my bed, wide awake staring at the ceiling, listening to the tick-tock of the clock watching hours pass.Why did he kiss me? Who was that red Lady?I couldn't come up with any answers to these questions.Why does my mind freeze in hispresence?I stood in a sitting position when I remembered his words before the kiss. I quickly took my phone to translate those words. My thumbs were dancing in front of the screen. "Crap! What were those words?" I almost shout ignoring the peaceful sleep of Adam. I looked down at him.

    I got home and quickly changed into a suit. Taking my fake glasses and hairpin, I drove to the office. As usual, I was late. My three spare suits of the office were already used and I forget to put more of them. My mind that was busy with the usual stuff, was dashed back on yesterday's incident.I have to talk to him.Not sure what to talk but I need to. When I reached, I took my private elevator and to my surprise, Loren arrived at the same time and stepped in. Just his presence was building up the weird feeling in me.

    As promised, I was at the college by 7. We practiced in the music room for an hour. When it was time for Adam's school, I got home to pick him. He was ready when I arrived and we drove to his school. Way to the school was quiet and we arrived within minutes. We were waiting out of the principals' office. I took a deep breath before entering and with one step we're in."Have a seat Miss. Troustkey." The principal said, only his torso was visible as the rest of the body was hidden behind the desk. When we sat he began his complaint.I am the one who should be complaining. The one who's guilty is the other boy with whom he fought. It wasn't a fight though. There's his fault but that boy was the initiator."You should control your brother, he painted a boy's face black." Principal said."I know what he did s-" no I am not calling him sir- "but that boy was the one who first ruined his painting."

    Jacob asked, what took me so long. I simply lied about finding the broach. I don't know why I am hiding things from him. Tomorrow I am going to tell him everything. Everything about my work, about Loren. Wait, what about Loren? I don't know, but I am telling him. I don't wanna hide anything from him. He's my friend for 9 years. We were in a restaurant having lunch and I don't feel like eating. Jacob was not in his usual self which made me worry. Jeal was still in her white dress I changed it into my comfy jeans and T-shirt before leaving. I was turning a fork on my plate while looking out through the glass window.

    I tried to open my eyes after gaining a little consciousness. But the sharp white light acted contradict to my action. When I made some movements with my limbs, the relief felt over my body that they were not tied. I covered my eyes with my hands before opening and slowly opened them. Then I felt a cloth under my palms, tracing on it I found a bandage tied around my head. When my sight was back I looked at the square white light hanging from the ceiling. Surveying my eyes around I found myself in a white room on a white hospital bed.How?"Hello, Levy." I tilted my head to the familiar voice and saw Loren sitting on the side stool beside the bed.Confused by the situation I stared at him. Am I dreaming?He waved his hand in front of me. "Are you able to see properly?" He asked genuinely.I closed my eyes to open it again. So that I may wake up from my dream. When I reopened my eyes, the same scene r

    I woke up rubbing my eyes. There was an unfamiliar smell in the atmosphere. No, not unfamiliar but a familiar. I stood in a sitting position and wander my gaze around, scanning every detail where I was. I was in a room, a bedroom on a bed which was not mine. Having a little awareness about the room my heart raced. Tilting my head to a click sound, I saw Loren coming out of the bathroom with black jeans, a naked torso and a towel over his neck. My heart skipped a beat on this site and my stare began at his lean, muscular body. He didn't see me as his head was bent drying the wetness from his hair. When his eyes met mine, I quickly laid back on the bed covering my face.This is weird and embarrassing.I shouldn't be staring at him. Hearing the approaching footsteps my heart raced with its sound. He pulled me up by my hand. Removing my hands from my face he stoops towards me and lightly touched my wounded head.I didn't feel anything w

We both gave him a glance, then our eyes were back on the screen."Finished your so important business talk with brother?" I asked looking at the screen."Yes. My so important business talk is done and I am taking you out today." He said and sat beside Adam."Where?" I asked.I was waiting for the answer when I heard Adam's shout.

    My eyes couldn't believe what they saw that night, neither my mind could contemplate why he was there. Was I hallucinating? No, I wasn't. If it was a hallucination, this could have happened a long and time ago. He was real, but how? Was the question that was killing every brain cells of mine. In between two days, time passed and I was lost in my thoughts. The answer to how he was there? What was he doing? and why at the funeral? Will be answered only if, I know who that woman was. And the question, who she was can be answered by only one person, Ayra. I didn't dare to ask her anything about her friend, I wanted to give her time till she comes out of her somber.I got off the bed, freshened up and went into her room. She was sitting on the bed, hugging the pillow. Even after a couple of days, she wasn't normal. Taking a deep breath, I entered and sat beside her."Ayra?" I said.She looked up at me, ending her nowhere stare.

    Time marched by days into months and months into a year. Everything in my life has changed but one thing remains the same. Years ago, I wouldn't have pictured my life the way it is now. Our little family had grown. Brother is engaged with Ayra and father is living with us. Even after a year my mind can never let go of Loren or it's my heart that is still holding Mr. Black. I was looking in the mirror, reading my new look. My long hair was now short reaching my shoulders. I was wearing a maroon, knee-length dress with black boots covering my exposed legs. My contemplation ended with a call, a video call from Jacob."Hey.""Haircut!" Was the first thing he said."Yeah," I said touching the ends of my hair. "Ayra insist.""You look cute in short hair.""You think so? I prefer long though.""When did you do it?""2 days back."Adam shouted while enterin

  • Unintentionally chased   32. Accept?

    Sitting in the class with my head resting on the bench, I was thinking of what to do. How should I explain this to my brother? It's really hard for me to believe and impossible for him. I was staring at my hands holding the phone. Should I talk with someone? But with whom? Only if Loren was here, I could discuss it with him. He always had answers to my questions and he somewhat knows about my father, I didn't know what I told him back then. Here I again started thinking about him. Scrolling the contacts on the phone as if his number will magically pop up, I abruptly stopped the process when I saw Jacob's name. Should I call him? He might freak out more than I am and he'll be sleeping at this time. Damn! I just want to smash my head on the wall so that any solution my fall out. This is stupid. I stood up to move to the other class. I should get something that justifies his words.Classes went by one after another. We got

    I was in the class, listening to the lecture with my heavy eyelids, ready to shut at any moment. My mind got attentive when the lecturer mentioned my name."Miss. Troustkey." She said."Yes." I stood at attention.Did she notice my sleepy head?"Go to the principals' office.""But why?" I asked.She handed me a little piece of paper on which my name was written with the signature of the principal. I took the paper and went out of the class. Standing in the corridor, I was confused, whether the office was on the left or the right.I should pay more attention to the directions.I randomly turned right and reached a room, not the principals' office. Walking back, I went to the left and knocked on the principals' office. He told me to come in and then asked to go to the opposite side where someone came to meet me.Ah! I went to the righ

    I stood there astonished when the man declared his identity. My clouded eyes couldn't leave his sight when those words contracted my ears. Taking a step back from him, I blinked to make the view clear. It was the same man, whom I stamped in the crowd. This cannot be true, all this time- before I could complete my thought other thought interrupted. Is he another kidnapper? Stepping back several steps, I was surveying my driver who was nowhere to be found."Levy listen to me." He said while taking a step towards me.How did he know my name?"Back off." I snarled, tears leaving my eyes."You don't have to fear me." He stepped forward, making me mirror his action oppositely. "Ok, I am not moving." He stood still in this position."Who sent you to kidnap me?" I asked. This was a stupid question, why would any kidnapper would tell that. But my mind wasn't running fine to ask any proper question.

    We were in the kitchen, Ayra and I. She was beating the egg yolk while I was mixing the sugar with the egg white. I tried calling Jafferys, but my calls haven't been answered yet. I don't know why they weren't lifting the calls. After calling six to seven times, I came to help her. I should be more patient."That's enough." Ayra's voice brought me back to the presence.She took the bowl and mixed the batter. After all the procedure, we kept it in the oven and waited for it to bake. We did the cleaning while it was getting baked. Excusing myself, I went into my room to call again.Maybe I should wait. I thought, as barely half an hour passed when I last called. Ignoring my thought, I called. Waiting for anyone to pick it up. Again it went unanswered until the last bell. I called again, this is last for today. Again the same response from them as well as from me. Ok, one last time. Waiting for the voice instead of the ringing so

    We were ready before the 8'O clock, to leave. Brother, Adam and I were on our way with a driver. Yes a driver, he didn't permit me to drive. The driver will be dropping and picking us. We arrived in front of a huge university which was surrounded by snow. Trees lined around the gate, covered by the snow in the same manner. The green and white color environs the university. The principal accepted me gladly and I can start tomorrow. The next stop was a school for Adam. It was building covered on three sides like a reverse U shape, with a huge playground under a blanket of snow. The playground starts at the entrance and ended up reaching the building on three sides. Adam was accepted too.~~~~~~When we got home brother went to his work. Ayra came when Adam and I were playing a game."You guys know what's tomorrow." She stated more like a question.I nodded while my eyes were fixed on the screen. Tomorrow is Admund's b
