Chapter 5 - Chapter 4

Third person's POV-

It had been a week after that incident. Bella didn't have that courage to face Ethan so she took a leave from college. Bella had no friends , so no one took the headache of thinking where she was.

But , yesterday , when she was going to groceries , someone followed her , it was a boy , who bought a cotton candy and said the seller to give it to Bella.

Bella was an orphan. She used to live in a girl's hostel but one day she was thrown out because of going out at 12 am. After that , she took a two room flat for rent. Bella had a middle aged woman as her maid named Rosey , who helped her alot , Bella didn't need to pay her as she used to consider Bella as her own daughter. It had a beautiful kitchen and a balcony too , though everything was so small , Bella had the talent of painting. She painted her small house and it looked so beautiful. Bella had a part-time job in the McDonald's which made her life a bit easier yet tough.

So , it was a boring day for her. Bella had a bread with jam in her breakfast as it was end of the month and she was out of money. Rosey was on leave. Bella was having crisps while watching Peppa Pig when her door bell rang. Bella became amazed as normally no one comes in search of her. She opened the door thinking maybe its the landlord. But making her shocked , it was Christian. She never liked this boy until yesterday. But she again became scared watching him as she thought maybe Ethan and his group reached her house too.

"Don't panic , it's me, Christian"

"Why are you here?"

"Should we ask like this to a guest? Behave Ms.Bella"

Christian said with a grin.

"Yeah , sorry. Come inside."

Christian entered and looked around. It was a small yet beautiful yet messy house. A pot full of crisps were on the sofa. A small tv was in front of it, where a cartoon was going on. Christian smiled looking at the scenario when Bella entered with two packets of cup noodles and two glasses full of Coca-Cola.

"I don't have anything in the house right now except this , I don't know if you guys have soft drinks though."

"Yeah , I'll manage. No problem."

Christian waited a second and said ,

"Why you missed the classes ? Exams are near."

"I was afraid to face them."

"So ,how many days you'll hide like this?"

"I'll join from tomorrow ig.''

Christian didn't take this topic long and asked,

"You watch cartoons?"

"Mhm-hmm".

Bella replied while stuffing crisps inside her mouth.

"Which cartoon is this?"

"This is Peppa Pig. It's about a girl pig's family and friends."

Bella continued being excited.

"You can watch this too , you'll really have fun.''

Christian giggled and replied ,

"Ig I'll have more fun if I get her in my plate as bacon burger."

Bella made her eyes big and giggled. Christian continued ,

"By the way , I didn't know what you like to eat, so I just brought some ice cream with me."

"Thanks"

Bella said being awkward. Yeah, she knew him , but they weren't that close that he'd come to her house like this. It wasn't like she didn't like him coming , but as she was introvert ,she felt a bit weird.

Fifteen minutes went like this , no one spoke up. Bella thought to broke the silence and said,

"I have some plants in my balcony , You wanna see them?"

Christian nodded and they spent the day together. Bella got to know alot about him and he was only looking at her. It was evening when Christian said ,

"Guess I should leave now , I should get to see you tomorrow at the college."

Christian was about to get out when Bella said ,

"You're my first friend to visit my house , actually you're my only friend in the college."

Christian smiled and waved his hand at her. She smiled and he went.
