Chapter 33 - After The Attack

On getting to her room Sharon went into a trance. This time it was her desire for answers that made her fall into a trance.

She sees the lady with long hair and blue eyes sitting in the garden taking a cup of tea beautifully dressed as usual.

"Arden? " She called out walking down to meet her.

Arden turned to look at her.

"Oh you are here" she said smiling.

"I am sure you have a lot of questions on your mind."

"Yes i do. Can you please explain what happened out there today? "Sharon asked calmly.

"Well, it just as I informed you. From time to time i will be taking over your body when the situation requires it."

"Like you did today? I didn't even give you permission to." Sharon said furiously.

"Please calm down there is no need getting angry. I saved the lives of everyone today and that's the most important thing. I couldn't watch my family come under attack when i could do something about it."

"In my first time on earth I was a marine soldier. I trained everyone in this house how to shoot a gun because of the kind of lifestyle my husband was living. I knew they will need the trainings one day. She said sipping her tea."

"Is that so? So how did you think that made me feel? I looked like a freak in front of them. I couldn't even give a proper explanation for what happened." Sharon said obviously frustrated about Sharing her body.

"A next time i will appreciate if you give me an heads up before you take over my body."

"Alright i will do just that. " Arden said shrugging her shoulders.

"But you always have to listen to me I will be speaking from inside of you."

"That is way better. " Sharon said sitting close to her.

"Can you tell me more about you.? "Sharon asked turning to face her. "

You practically know everything about me but i know nothing about you."

On hearing this Arden countenance changed. She was no longer smiling.

"You are not prepared for that now. I will take my leave" she said quickly vanishing into thin air before Sharon could protest.

"I hate when she does this" Sharon says. She was frustrated. She really have a lot of questions for Arden but it seems she is not ready to relate her story with her.

With that she came out of the trance.

"I will have to ask around to know more about Arden." Sharon said to herself.

At that moment she heard a knock on her door. She quickly went to check. Standing at her door was the least person she expected to see. Shaw was the one at the door.

'Hey, how are you doing? I came to check up on you" he said with a broad smile.

"I am fine. I just need time to process all that have happened. You know I am not used to these sought of things." It was the first time Sharon will be speaking to Shaw alone.

"Its okay he said. I just came to make sure you are fine. The doctor is around now in case you need him to check up on you."

"It wont be necessary she said. I am perfectly fine."

"Okay then if you need anything make sure to tell me"he said leaving.

"Hey"she said stopping him.

"Sorry about the hand, I hope you are no longer in pains."

"It is fine"he said hiding his hand behind him.

Suddenly they both heard a voice from downstairs.

"Hello is anyone in this house."

It was a male voice that Sharon wasn't familiar with.

"That must be Mr Huffington"Shaw informed Sharon.

And who is that she asked curiously.

"You have never met him I guess. He is the father of Avero. Dad's only friend you can come down to see him if you don't mind"

he added before going downstairs to meet him. Mr Huffington has rushed down to the mansion immediately he heard of the attack.

Sharon followed Shaw closely to see him.

'Hello" Mr Huffington Shaw said stretching his hand.

"Shaw how are you? "he asked taking his hand and how is that hand of yours."

"Well sir I am fine and the hand no longer hurts." he replied calmly.

Sharon stood from a distance observing the two men. she could feel it in her bones she has seen him somewhere but she couldn't place her hand on the place.

"And who do we have her? "she heard his voice cutting through her thought.

"Sir that is Sharon" Shaw said taking Sharon by the hand and bringing her to him.

Mr Huffington stretched his hand to shake her.

"I have heard a lot about you" he said beaming with smiles. He was observing her closely. He could see she was very beautiful and he noticed her blues eyes. Those eyes reminded him of someone.

"How are you young lady?" I hope you are fine and didn't get hurt in anyway."

"I am fine" she replied shyly. She didn't feel comfortable with the way he was looking at her.

"Where is your father and my daughter?"He said turning to Shaw.

"My dad is in his room and Avero is in the guest room."

"Alright then i will go see her first. Please inform your dad of my presence he said walking to the guest room."

It quickly occured to Sharon where she had seen Mr Huffington before. It was in the La Masia restaurant.
