~Jia's POV~
"He's not coming, is he?" I asked, squeezing Max's hand that I just hold out of desparation, the multi-colored party hat on my head slipping down.
Risa came towards my side and hold my both arms to support me. Max's eyes seem like it is pitying on me. He place his other hand over my palms, and I understood the thing very well. I don't have to say anything as I don't have any word. No one spoke any word but they had spoken so much. without a word I walked back don't know where.
It was dark and specially very dark for me. The sound of silence was deafening, all I could hear was the wind rattling, my heart thumping as if it was going to rip out from my ribcage and a small ringing sounds came to my hear, I slowly open my eyes and realise that it was a very dream. The dream I really don't want to think about. BTW it's not the first time for this dream. I'm used to it but every single time I dream about it, it only brings more pain to me.
The formed sweat dropped down from my forehead. I was breathing heavily, I took the bottle from the side table and drink the water .
After calming myself I searched for the person who didn't wake me this time. Heading out of the room i saw Risa in the kitchen.
"Freshen up first.... then have your breakfast. Mr. Andre called me before, He want's to meet you in person." Risa said. She was preparing noodles for me. I wanted to tell her about my dream but it seems like it's not the right time. So I went back to my room . Done with my morning duties I came back to eat. sitting on the chair and waiting for my food to arrive.
"You seemed a little tensed earlier, What happened ? " Risa asked me while serving the food. I looked at her but the word was not coming out of my mouth. I don't know how to tell her but before I could speak I heard her sighing. I looked up at and found her looking at me worriedly . She sat on the chair that was beside me.
" That dream again ? " Risa asked and hesitantly I nodded my head.
"Are you ok?" Risa again asked.
"Yeah Yeah.... totally fine. Let's eat the noodles. Thanks for this " I told her and start eating, forgetting everything I'm afraid to think.
~Risa's POV~
Jia changed the topic again. I know She don't want to discuss it, but she can't possibly go on her whole life like this. Now I don't want to bring the scene back to her, she is going to have a meeting with a Big CEO, who called himself, instead of his secretary .She must look bright. She is an artist and a very well known personality in this City.
We are eating peacefully enjoying our noodles. Usually Jia makes the cooking mostly but it's not like I don't do any. Like I made today. I also help her in everyway she needs. These thoughts take me back to the time when we were in our university. When Jia was soooooo soo... in love with that person. She knows everything about him except one thing that broke her heart later. How she used to come University everyday just with a hope of getting a glance of him. How we all friends used to do anything so that she can see him.
~FLASHBACK~
Risa's POV
" yaah...wake up. you're gonna be late for the class, only 20 min left com'on get up fast ." shouted "Larisa" , the one and only me while packing her bag. I myself was very sleepy right now, But she had to shout because the girl is not leaving her pillow at all .
" Zou Jia...! Are you going to get up or should I kick your a** ." I'm ready to kick her out of bed.
Her dark pitch black eyes trembled and opened. She looked at the watch . " Oh sh**!! only 15 min left . Sorry! I'll be quick ,wait for me ." She ran to bathroom with that and after finishing her duty we both are now all set for University .
' Zou Jia ' and her friend ' Larisa ' who is also the same age as her are best friend . they are the students of Tiangxu University . One of the well known University of city Z . Both are not so good student but excellent in Art, painting.
At the University
We sat on our seat now looking at the door .
"It's not yet the time for their class . Why are you tensing up, relax ." I told Jia. I'm used to the reaction of Jia everyday like this. it's been more than a year, it has been going on like this.
Jia didn't say anything. She just kept staring at the window while spining her brush.
"Are you even listening, I'm talking to you." I waved at her.
"Yeah yeah. I even know what's gonna be your next line." She said like I'm some kind of old women lecturing her about something... She is just sooo .... stubborn.
"Fine, Atleast sit properly. you are tall and tall enough to see from sitting here comfortably. You don't have to sit like you're gonna jump on somebody." She is a monkey right now. Her body is gonna ache later.
That didn't bother her at all because everything worth it's time if she can get a glance of him. She was waiting for him who never see her. She was waiting for him who doesn't even have any idea that she exists . she was waiting for him. And she will forever.
Now That time came . He came and pass through her classroom door and window. Jia looked at him for not more than one second . even i can sense her racing heartbeat , and then she looked down. She says she feels something different whenever she looked at him. There's no word to describe her feelings right now better than her.
~BACK TO PRESENT~
~Jia's POV~
I saw that Risa is not speaking anything and eating very slowly. I shook her hand and she shake off a little.
Wh– What happened? She asked probably forgetting that she has been sitting there for more than 40 minutes Whereas me all ready to leave for meeting.
"Girl eat fast , that's enough of daydreaming. And I'm leaving." I said wearing my boots. As I am going to meet a new person and a CEO of a big company, I dressed a little formal.
"yeah.. good luck." Risa wave her hands.
"Yaah, you know there's no luck, everything is hardwork. " I corrected her like every time. She always forget that I don't like good luck wishes. So I remind her and walk off the stairs.
"Yup yup, well aware of that." Risa said waving.
