Two days passed with no news from Vicnan. I was worried about him, Why? I do not know but I was. He told me he was going to see someone important and from his look that day, it seems like he was bothered and I can't stop to wonder, what was bothering him.
'' are you alright? '' a familiar voice spoke, calling me out of my thought. I turned around to see Dr Noah taking off his hand glove, he obviously just got out of the OR
'' oh hi '' that feeling, that feeling of excitement to see someone. I always felt that way with him. I didn't find it strange any more because it was the same thing that happened with Vicnan. I became obsessed with a guy that I didn't know. I won't say that I was obsessed with Noah. I just felt a connection between us and he comes to mind once in a while but with Vicnan in my life, I don't think any man that completely grabs my attention. And now that I am certain that I have feelings for him, I think I have gotten myself into trouble. '' how are you? ''
'' Good. How about you? You seem bothered '' he gave a concerned look
'' no, I am fine ''
'' Are you sure?'' taking a step forward, those unique purple eyes stared at me deeply with so much worries, making my heart flutter
'' yeah '' I smiled in assurance '' Just.... '' thinking of what to say '' Hungry'' he raised an eyebrow at me
'' hungry?''
'' yes. Are you surprised''
'' well it is 10 am, but it's ok if you are hungry '' he smiled and his eye sparked at the same time.
'' Good morning Dr Noah '' two nurses greeted as they walk past us.
'' Morning '' he responded with a bright smile. they giggled and whispered a few things and I knew for sure, they would talk about me. These few days I have been hearing gossip about me all because of how close me and Dr Noah got, in a short period. But it didn't bother me, I have a lot on my plate to worry about them.
'' Oh wow '' I spoke out loud
'' what is it? '' I sensed the curiosity in his tone '' what is the wow for ''
'' you know '' I shrugged and began walking and he followed immediately '' Good morning Dr Noah '' I mocked '' It made me wonder. Am I invisible? '' I noticed he held back his smile '' Do you see me?'' my question made him let go of his laughter
'' Yeah, I see you '' responded in the middle of his laugh
''Are you sure? I am beginning to think that I am invisible '' shrugged again. My hand made its way to my jacket pocket, while I listened to his soft laugh. Noah was a demon like Vicnan but he appears softer than Vicnan. Is it because Vicnan is royal? And about these eyes and the resemblance. Do all Demons have this resemblance? That can't be right. But why do they look so much alike? Did Vicnan lie to me that day? NO. That day he avoided the question but why would he hide that he has a brother
'' are you jealous ?'' He interrupted my thought once again
'' Pardon ?'' confused as to what he was talking about
'' you know.... me getting so much attention from the ladies. Are you jealous? ''
'' why would I be? With all your good looks, and sweet, flirty attitude. It obviously worth the attention ''
''Really?''
'' Yeah. Every girl wants a hot bad boy ''
'' what about you? ''
'' Pardon '' I turn my head to look at him as we walk
'' do I have your attention? '' rolling my eyes at his words
'' Too bad..... ''
'' so I don't have your attention '' with disappointment in his tone. He stopped walking, and so did I. I turn to face him and I got confused by his expression '' other women's attention is useless, especially if that one person doesn't see you '' I froze. What is he trying to say? That he likes me? That doesn't make sense or is he joking right now? Yeah, he is joking.
'' really?.. well too bad, this lady right here is too hungry to pay attention to any guy especially if it's you '' he smiled, holding back his laugh '' buy me food and I will think about it ''
'' yes ma '' with his response, I walked away
*******************************
walking out of the hospital building, I was finally off for the day and I noticed it would rain soon so I hurried to the bus stop. The bus was more crowded than usual. I guess it's because everyone is in a hurry to get off the street. It has been raining more often these days, it is the season anyway. In almost an hour I arrived at my stop. I got off the bus, and lift my head to look at the sky to see the angry clouds gathering. It is going to be a heavy one, thank goodness I am almost home.
I decided to take a shortcut. Vivian has warned me severally about the shortcut after a rape incident that happened and I had promised her. But what will one do at this moment, I mean, it is about to rain and besides. Who would rape someone in the open on a rainy day?
Walking fast. I made my way to a narrow dark road. It has been a while since I walked here but I still remembered it perfectly. Suddenly I came to a stop, I had this strange feeling that something was wrong. I noticed my surrounding grew darker and cold and it was quiet. Yes, not a single so was present which mean it would be quiet but the silence felt too deep. I couldn't hear a single thing. Not the breeze, not my footstep or my breath '' shit '' under my breath. I began walking again, this time faster. I need to leave this place now. Or should I turn around? That would be a dumb thing to do, besides I have gotten halfway. Walking faster, ZOOOM something ran passed me resulting in a sudden stop. ZOOM I heard it again, behind me. Someone was here, or will I say something? ZOOM it passed behind me again '' oh God '' I made a run for it. Not looking back to see what or who it was. I need to get out of here now. ZOOOOOM I heard it again behind me. Whatever presence here was moving at high speed. Anyone can tell. '' shit, shit, shit '' repeatedly. My heart racing, I was suddenly reminded of the night in the woods. something strange attached to me
ZOOOOOM I crashed into someone and landed on my butt '' aaaaaa'' I screamed at the top of my voice. My butt in pain but I had no time to whine about it. My heart beat like crazy like it could punch its way out of my chest and my eyes shut. I knew someone or something was standing in front of me, but my eyes remained shut, too scared to open and see the horror before me. What do I do? What is going to happen to me '' Are you alright ?'' a voice spoke. A calm, harmless voice '' miss? ''
I slowly opened my eyes to see a fine gentleman in front of me. He was tall, really tall with long dark hair. '' oh...oh...oh lord '' instantly filled with relief
'' Are you alright ''
'' oh yeah '' looking around, trying to study my environment. Who is he and where did he come from? I thought to myself. And what happened to the person after me '' sorry, I didn't see you there ''
'' it seems like something was chasing you '' he flashed a smile then offered his hand for me to take '' here ''
'' oh, thanking '' I took his hand and spoke while he pulled me up '' For a moment I thought, someone was after me. I guess I was just imagining things ''
'' Really. Imaging? ''
'' yeah. I got scared and my imagination ran wild '' still shaking due to how terrified I was a minute ago
'' and how sure are you that it is your imagination '' he spoke, still carrying that smile while he held on to my head. I felt a bit uncomfortable and wanted to let go but he didn't let me
'' yeah....amm'' feeling awkward '' my hand please ''
'' you didn't answer my question '' still smiling and refusing to let go
'' ammm.. sorry. I see you here and....''
'' you thought your imagination was after you '' he cut me off. Once again I became scared. Who is this weird guy
'' sir, please let me go ''
'' you shouldn't trust that easily '' his smile grew wider, and so did his grip on my hand. His eyes locked on mine.
'' sir my hand '' his grip grew tighter, causing me pain '' aaaaaa'' I let out, struggling to free myself '' let me go '' I cried out
'' you....'' eyes locked on mine. His eyes changed into a deep bloody red making my heart stop functioning for a few seconds '' your blood smells incredible ''
'' fuck No!!!!!''
