Ara's POV
"Let's go Ara!" Liza's tone is too rude for the first time. I can sense the weird feeling of unease in her voice. Since she seen my brand new friend, she was actually super strange.
She handed me some of the shopping bags lying on the elevator floor and took the rest of them. I raised my gazed towards my new friend, his face is totally turned into white!
Simply she grabbed my hand, and rushed out of the elevator. Her grip is so strong!
As, I gazed back over my shoulder while walking, my new friend wave his hand to me with a warm smile.
I only smile in reply...
Finally we reached to the cafe. Her friend is already there. She greeted me and then I sat besides me.
"Order anything you want." Liza suggested me.
"Yah, sure." I replied. Her friend handed me a glass of water and ask how I am. She is so sweet like Liza.
"Be right back, gotta take care of my some business." Suddenly she started. But her tone is sounding so weird.
Is she is catching up with my brand new friend? As I watched her walk away, she was heading to opposite direction to the exit.
She can't buy I'm still puzzled when the two of them met there gaze.
Liza's POV
Ara's so oblivious. She has no clue I slipped out of the café through the back exit to meet him. I've kept him on the down low, and Ara's none the wiser.
But where's he at? I scan the area, eyes peeled in all directions.
Gotcha!!!
I spot him. I storm towards him like a thunderbolt.
"What's going on with you and my cousin in the elevator?" I ask him, my tone icy calm.
"She's your cousin, and you never mentioned that?" he shoots back, raising an eyebrow. "What's the big deal, Liza?"
"The big deal?" I'm fuming. "You're not supposed to be anywhere near her. You know exactly why."
"Hey! I don't even know her. It was just a coincidence," he claims.
"Coincidence? Don't give me that shit," I snap. "What were you doing with her?"
"I'm telling you, it was just an accident. We got stuck in the elevator," he says, trying to sound convincing.
"Accident? Are you kidding me?" I say, my voice rising. "Stay away from her, or things will get ugly. Got it? You mess with her, you mess with me. And trust me, you don't want that kind of shit in your life."
He looks at me, a smirk on his face. "Okay, I'm shaking in my boots."
"You're not taking this seriously, but you should," I warn him.
"I'll be watching you. Don't think you can play me."
"Whatever" he says, shrugging.
"Just remember, I'm watching you," I said that while pointing my finger towards him. And then I leave that place.
I never let Ara to know about him.I know she will meet him one day but I will do my best to keep out of his reach.
Ara's POV
"Where is she....?" Liza's friend is so bored with me, I don't know why. Is I'm that much boring? I wanted her friend's attention.
By the way she is taking too long...
"Ahh, she is over there." I screamed aloud and I slammed my fist on the table....
Great! Just what I wanted, attention!
Everyone is looking at me in the cafe.
"What happened??" Liza ask me. She is already looking tensed.
I pass a ugly smile while sitting down on the chair."Nothing..."
"Let's go, mumma is waiting for us. It's too late." She murmured. Her energy is gone.
Liza convince her friend to meet on another day. Then she leaves. Liza handed me some shopping bags and take the rest of them. Her driver is already waiting for us outside. On the way, I want to ask Liza about that guy. My brand new friend. But I can't.
When we reached home Aunt give me a tight hug. "Are you okay??" She asks.
"Yah, I'm okay. Don't worry." I reassured her.
Then I goes to room and freshen up and finally it's time for the dinner. I only drank water in the café. My appetite is on it's peak!
When I sat on the dining table, uncle is also there. He also asked me several times about me that I'm okay. And as always leo don't b con
I finished my dinner and went straight to my room. I first arranged my room according to me. I set my wardrobes and closets and the things we brought today.
Then I jumped on my bed. I slept on the spot. Sweet dreams. I think I'm going to dream about Liza, me and my brand new friend. Too strange....
Next day i woke up with my alarm ringtone. I set 15 alarms to decrease the probability for getting late. And guess what I'm not late today!!
I turn off my 15th snoozing alarm and sat up in bed, rubbing sleep from my eyes. After some time I step in the bathroom then I noticed the door lock has been changed. It's the new one with different settings. I hardly shut the door lock and started the shower rituals.
When the rituals are over I moved to get out of the bathroom then I realised....
The stupid door lock is glitched!!! What is heck?!
What are you doing Ara?! I am just staring at the stupid door lock for last 20 minutes. I can't figure out how to open this. Then it's to long I'm stuck in the restroom so what I expected, Liza came to check me. And finally I was able to call her that I'm stuck here!!!!
It's to hard to talk to her because the door is almost sound proof...
"You mean you're trapped in there because of defective lock?!" Liza trying to stifle her laughter. Oh really!!!¡
"Yes, this stupid door lock is malfunctioning, and I'm stuck...." I glared at the door even though she couldn't see me.
I'm already depressed because of yesterday's elevator accident and that guy and now I trapped in my own restroom.
Really!!!?The planets are against me..!!
