Chereads / The Girl With Cinnamon Eyes / Chapter 16 - Chapter 16

Chapter 16 - Chapter 16

I woke up quite early that day, my head was aching and I opened my eyes with utmost difficulty as if glue stucked on my eyes. I rubbed my face and gently landed my left foot and observed sweet weather with happy birds chirping, I firmly wished to decipher their songs which was relaxing and soothing. The blue sky changed its contours with sweet breeze. Two birds perched on my windows.

I stared at my whiskey eyes which was glowing with the beam of light. I woke up quite early today.

My maid brought toast and milk for me. My maid was very lazy, she cooked the same breakfast. I squinched my eyes.

"You have cooked the same breakfast", I said clenching my teeth.

She ignored my statement and pretended to wash many utensils. I was fumed with her attitude as if I had no respect.

I lifted my plate, placed in the sink and left her tasteless food on that plate.

"You might be hungry", she urged.

I rolled my eyes.

I went to my mommy room to pick any odd pen, my mom was busy with her sheets scattered in every corners of her working desk, she coughed badly and I ran towards her to pat her back.

"I am fine Murk"

But I knew she was not, her face was less vibrant. She lacked the spirit of joy which was always fixed on her.

"You are getting late"

"Yes mom"

I was again late. I arrived at the scene when principal declared about the function which would held next week. My friends Jack and Nick waved me like a monkey. Jack was with a beautiful girl (must be her girlfriend) and Nick was feeling isolated.

"Hey Murk", Nick said, "where were you lost yesterday"

"In the jungle".

I laughed loudly and Nick joined me. Actually I wanted to change the topic.

"Stupid function", Jack stated.

Nick suddenly shifted his glance and looked at someone.

"What are you staring at?", I asked.

His gaze was at my Rose or the other girl. I could not make out.

"Do you want to know something?", he questioned.

I glanced straightly at his green eyes.

"Promise me, it will be a secret"

"Top secret", I replied.

"I like miss Fernandez"

"She is really hot", I said.

Thank God, it was not Merry Dawn.

I ignored him and visited my Rose who was chatting with her friends. She wore a crimson frilled frock, her curly hair softly perched at her shoulders.

"Hi"

She gently smirked.

"How are you?", she asked.

"I miss yesterday's kiss"

"I don't want to talk about that", she changed her expression and her beautiful face seemed to get confused and irritated.

She avoided me but a lover like me will absolutely follow her. She immediately entered the university's hallway and ran upstairs.

She was running away from me as if I was a pentapod monster. I applied all my strength to catch her, she paused at the library and panted as if she had capitulated herself.

"I can run no more", she said, "I feel guilty".
