Scarlet looked at the man standing behind her with a different expression, which she couldn't guess or read .
It was like a cocktail with a lot of different flavors that you taste in just one sip and wonder about the one who had made it such perfection that inspite of the differences of flavors , it still held everything and every flavor uniquely and you just can't help but want it more.
Those ocean blue orbs of hers had triggered something in those green glaring blue orbs of that man which were piercing her soul.
Amidst of the tides of emotions going on in his head, he didn't notice the crucial part but his beta Jack surely did.
Just when the staff member Mr. Smith had mentioned her name "Miss Lozenge", Jack was wondering as to where had he listened to that particular name but couldn't recall .
As he looked at the disappearing figures, it just struck his mind that she could be the same lady whom Emerald had asked him to inquire about back in the Gray's Corporation.
While Emerald was still dazzled and looked at the girl vanishing from his sight reluctantly. Jack just approached him at the same moment.
He tried to calculate the emotions on his lord's face and then thought about something else. He calculated the thought in his head and sutured his lips to say….
"Prince , I ... I ... I think she may be same Miss Scarlet Lozenge about whom you asked me to investigate back in the Gray's Corporation."
Emerald snapped out from this arena of thoughts and looked at Jack . Suddenly , reality hit him and he realised that the staff member Mr. Smith also wished her saying Happy birthday Miss Lozenge and he got himself interested in her .
"Give me the towel. "Said Emerald not letting Jack know what he had been feeling right now. He was in his own whirlwind of emotions which seem to be quite new for him.
Jack handed him his towel wondering why wasn't his lord reacting to what he told him when he was the only one who wanted to find that girl named 'Scarlet'.
Emerald dried his hair rubbing them with the towel while his thoughts were still with this mysterious girl, who played with the untouched chords of his heart.
Meanwhile , a whole closet of clothes was arranged for him to change his drenched clothes and he swiftly and elegantly landed into a grey office suit but Jack could notice that he was in hurry.
While heading out of the club and sitting inside the Lamborghini ,he ordered his beta Jack ...
“ Jack, I want every bit of information about that girl....... Scarlet Lozenge within 2 hours ."
He paused for a moment and then with angry and raged red eyes again said
"Find about that man who was holding her hands too."
Jack felt like his good days were gone as he was getting surprised again and again ever since this beautiful lady happened to land in his lord's life and to him the red raged eyes of Emerald were not angry but jealous.
He was thinking about all the events happening and only one possibility was there which he didn't want to spit out.
On the other hand, all the 6 people reached at Lozenges house. One of the figures was totally drenched but others were worried as to how were they going to answer the Lozenges family and that too what ??
The drenched figure wasn't shivering at all and was feeling so many feelings, rush of adrenaline and the other kinds of perplexing emotions, yet she was afraid of how her parents would react when they would look at her pitiable state.
Just as Chris was about to say something , the girl sutured her lips thinking over something and suggested all of other people saying…
" Guys, don't spill the beans inside. I don't want mom and dad to be worried. "
Jenny was totally shocked. She had already been raged at Emerald's attitude and to add more fuel, her friend wasn't ready to complaint about him to her parents. She wanted to teach that rude man a good lesson for hurting her friends and for holding them like captives at gun point just because of his one stupid meeting. What did he exactly think about himself??? ... Some god .. or what ...!!
So she asked her " why !! why ...did you just spare that rude man ? For God sake Scarf, he had ruined your birthday totally. "
Listening to her whining , Scarlet replied " We will not let him out."
While entering inside the house, she whispered in Jenny's ear
"Let's plan revenge Jenny . But now I am feeling uneasy. First Let me have some rest. "
Jenny nodded her head in a yes and showed her evil smirk to Scarf while thinking ...
'I hope you can have revenge Scarf and that too in the same evil way as you are smirking right now.’ And all of them headed inside.
Swiftly and slowly all the 6 figures started to sneak in the house through the main entrance door just like they are thieves and would get caught stealing red handed.
Tina and Tom were acting like watchdogs while Jenny and Eva were holding scarlet whose clothes and hairs were in a mess and were still dripping while Chris was peeking here and there with one eye while his another eye was on scarlet.
Scarlet although was in a messy state, yet for Chris she was still the same goddess whose one sight was enough to take his breath away.
Yes, he had always admired her . But he knew this quite well as to she never dated anyone and henceforth he had only admired and loved her from afar. He didn't want to confess his feelings fearing she would not even want to remain friends with him after knowing his feelings.
But this damn heart....!!! No matter how much you convince yourself, you can never ever convince this little fist sized organ which once starts working according to its own , would never listen to you again.
The same had been happening with Chris. He loved Scarlet but he was reluctant . He had always promised himself not to think like that again but the very next moment , his self-control had always given up looking at her chirpy face.
Even in this whole dark house, he was still clearly staring at her and that too ravishingly because now in the absence of any of the lights , nobody could judge anything from his expressions.
Soon the group of people reached at the door of Scarlet's room and entered slowly inside shutting the door swiftly .
Jenny and Eva made scarlet to head towards the bathroom giving her towel and some clothes to change from her wardrobe, while Tom and Chris got themselves settled on the bed side along with Tina .
Meanwhile Scarlet was inside the bathroom, changing her clothes slowly and was feeling a strange feeling as if something had been missing from her body , just like her body part. But she ignored the feeling and continued washing herself with a little warm water and let her each body cell to feel the soothing and calming effect of water.
Then she stepped inside her cozy and comfy night attire and draping another dry towel around her long wet hair and stepped out of the washroom.
All the other 5 figures were already sitting there waiting for her arrival. Just when Eva and Chris were being restless thinking how would Scarlet react after all that happened today, Tom , Tina and Jenny had already been eating like pigs. They went to the club in order to have party and because of that nasty man they could not eat anything. Hence, after sneaking inside the house and confirming that Mr. And Mrs. Lozenge along with Willy were already fast asleep, they took out some food from refrigerator and now we're munching it inside the room.
As Scarlet stepped out of the bathroom, Chris rushed to her like wind and held her smooth soft hands into his looking deep into her ocean blue orbs and starting shooting her with all his questions.
"Hey Scarf ! Are you feeling good now ? Do you have pains ?? Tell me , Do you want to go to the hospital ?" and touched her forehead worriedly.
But the girl took a long soothing shower , was in her all glory and looked extra gorgeous now just smiled a little and felt blessed having such caring friends. But because she didn't want to worry them so replied nonchalantly ….
"Guys, I am really fine. See...."swirling herself clockwise in the room like a little kid "and I m just tired. so I want to rest."
"Are you sure scarf !" stepped Tina closer to her figure leaving her plate of unfinished beacon on the bed and enquired ....
"Yes, Tina .... I m totally good. You guys are also disturbed. So you should head back and rest too. "
Before Chris could blurt anything else , Tom cut him amidst
"Yes, let scarf rest more. She is tired. Even we should head back. Tomorrow is an important assignment and we have to go to college for that. So , let's just go ."
Everyone agreed with him and left towards their respective homes wishing her birthday again.
After they left, Scarlet whispered to herself 'why do I still feel uneasy!!!'
