I found my way to the kitchen and found the coffee container laying on the kitchen
Slabs....it seems someone had just opened them, I quickly took a mug and began emptying the coffee container into it, I was absent minded as the thought of Mr Drey and his family was going on through my head, I didn't realize there was some one else in the kitchen until I heard a voice..I turned only for me to see the one whose thought has filled my head.
I was startled and dropped the mug. It made a loud sound and broke into two halves. I quickly bent down to pick the pieces but I was stopped by Mr Drey, he grabbed my arm , " you would end up hurting yourself" he said as he pulled me up, " but who clean up the mess"? I asked
" The maids will do it, and they have an equipment for that so they don't hurt themselves too". Mr Drey picked up the telephone in the kitchen and dialled a number, I heard him tell someone on the phone to come to the kitchen, I guess it was one of the maids.
Mr Drey and I left the kitchen, he took me to his study where we sat down to talk
" Arielle" he called my name, I could sense a hint of worry In his voice..." My elder brother will be arriving tomorrow, he said as he got up and moved closer to where I sat, he sat on the arm of the couch, I looked up at him while holding my coffee with my two hand...he slowly collected the mug " May I have this?" I didn't say a word, he dropped the mug on the table.
We were now looking each other in the eye.. I couldn't breathe properly, his eyes were so enchanting... he reminded me of someone I just couldn't place my hands on it the more I looked into his eyes, the more my heart beat increased, my heart was racing...my head was spinning, my heart was aching, droplets of sweats could be seen on my face, what was happening to me?
Mr Drey could Sense all the drama going on in my head.. he grabbed my shoulders
" Arielle are you okay?" He asked as he wiped the sweats off my face. Now I needed an explanation, I was tired of this torture I was going to get an explanation
I turned to Mr Drey " perhaps is there something you are not telling me? I asked as I looked at his face for answers. " What do you mean" he asked I sighed in frustration " why is it that anytime I looked into your eyes... things happen to me, I I see things... an..and it's as if we've known each other before I don't understand what's happening to me " I took in deep breaths.
Mr Drey enclosed the space between us, he sat so close to me, he looked deep into my eyes and whispered " Arielle we were once engaged to get married but. He closed his eyes and took in deep breaths... I held his face, he opened his eyes gradually and I could see he was fighting the tears that were threatening to fall from his eye...." I thought I lost you Arielle" he said as he sniffed. " I searched for you everywhere but I couldn't find you" his voice broke, he was really fighting the tears.
