" You sure you doing alright Bella , you can come back anytime you want " I might sound like a spoiled brat at this point but sometimes I hate the protective nature my mom has , both my parents have been protective since me being their only daughter but my dad definitely knows when to stop whereas mom on the other keep thinking of me as little girl who's gonna need her at every moment of life . Even when I entered college she was ready to send me off the same way she did on my first day to pre school and its was difficult as hell to stop her from doing so cause it would have been embarrassing .
My phone keeps ringing almost every hour with her asking me this question for the 100th time since I shifted to Berlin 4 days ago as if I am gonna change my mind in an hour and run back to her . The biggest reason of me shifting here away from them was definitely to conquer its time I see the world myself without them being always my side and this decision of mine definitely annoyed my mother to her core .
" I will be mumma gotta go now or else I will be late on my first day bye bye love you " Sighing loudly to let me know her displeasure she half heartly wishes me all the best before cutting the call definitely going back to dad so that she can complain about how bad of a decision it was to let me move here . According to her no matter how much I grow up I am always gonna be a littke girl for her well thats what every parent says
Sipping on my coffee I take a look around my messed up living area where half of boxes from the delivery service still lay untouched since I was too lazy to move all the things at once and this cold weather didn't help either as much as i loved winters for the special treats i used to get including my favorite apple pie my mother made every weekend the snow outside covers almost all the surface making it difficult to even go outside is making me hate it a little bit . My friend offered me to stay at this house which practically belongs to her uncle who once used to be in army and lived here with his family but later on moved to mosco leaving the house vacant and its located in the outskirts area of the city with only a few houses around nothing is very convenient , even in order to grab something of daily use I need to travel for half hour .
The house isn't big but perfect for a small family who wanna live a peaceful life away from the rush of those crowded cities .The floors are a little crooked while the paints from the walls has shedded down leaving behind the hole marks of the pictures the family hung there in the past . There wasn't much furniture just few chairs dining table a sofa and a bed which needed a bit of repairing and cleaning but is definitely more than enough for now . After cleaning and changing a few things the house no longer looked secluded from the inside and the outsides it looked not so approachable we'll fix that later I guess . There was just one room on the ground flow while the upper one had two out of which one has already been filled by me as a store room while the other one is pretty much turned into my bedroom , it didn't take a lot of time to set the bedroom with just a few furniture and the things I needed , now the only room left is officially the guest room even though I won't be having one but in case .
The last four days I took my time looking around the area and finally its the my first to my internship at the psychology ward of the city hospital . Everyone finds it weird of why would i choose to study psychology even after being a straight A student but to me it feels exciting I feel it thrilling to be able to read someone's mind to look straight into them and getting to know what's going inside here mind , its like knowing a person better than they know themselves . To m it always occurred fascinating of how I knew what the other person wanted to say just my looking into their eyes but how can someone find it boring ?
Grabbing my coat from the couch I make my way out after making sure the door is locked since there isn't much safety around the area even though no ones gonna come here thinking they might find a house filled with expensive things in a secluded side of the city .
The main road connecting this are to the city is about 10 min far and the cold winds making my body shiver so bad that even the walk there seems impossible but I literally have no option other than that .
The road looked similar to what we usually see in those horror movies completely secluded while morning sky completely darkened due to clouds with not even an ounce of sunshine which can easily confuse a person of what time of the day it was on the other hand the trees stood tall at both the sides of the road sprawled across a vast region white being completely covered in December snow looking exactly like the place I dreamed of in childhood where I could play hide and seek but now that you look that at them it seems scary of how a person could be there easily hiding looking at you and it would be impossible to spot them out let alone catch them . It might seem still safe to enter into the woods during the day but at night its definitely a place one should stay away from and thats exactly what i am gonna do .
Half way into my journey and my feet have already started paining . Only if I had my car here it would have so easy to just travel .
Somehow walking through this freezing winter I finally get to the main road successfully hailing myself a taxi to the hospital address .
The city unlike the outskirts looked dreamy with snow . The streets already busy this early with people out for their work while children on their way to schools as number of people rushed in and out of the cafes and bakeries across the street .
...
" What's your name Miss ? " I couldn't help but stare at the young German standing behind the counter looking like an eye candy . His eyes blue like the fresh spring waves in the ocean which no one would hesitate to drown into while the smile did no justice to other's heart , hair messed up in a beautiful way if that makes sense .
Clad in a blue t-shirt with a white overcoat complementing his complexion as is he just had a palate check for himself this morning looked exactly like those chocolate boys girls easily swoon over .
Not like I didn't have my fair share of pretty boys back in the high school and college but something about these pretty features and German accent hit different .
" Miss ? "
" uh yeah Isabella , Isabella Markov " a good way to embarrass yourself on the first day Bella .
" Nice to meet you Isabella . I am Noah Doctor Mortis did inform me about your arrival today so I was waiting for you " as much as I might be embarrassed to tell this to someone but I might possibly drool looking at the man in front of me .
" Am I late by any chance ? "
" Ah no its not like that you're not late and knowing you are still new to this city it might have been difficult in such a weather " am I being so obvious that he knows I do not belong to this city ?
" Its written on the form Dr. Mortis gave me if you are wondering by any chance well then how about we fill a few details here and then I'll take you ahead " looks like he can read minds as well .
'Isn' it my job though ?'
" Sure , you can just call me Bella its easier " 'as if you let anyone call you Bella you just met ' at this point I can hear my inner self asking me to stop being so obvious .
But I am just curious of how my name would sound with that German accent , I always had a thing for a few accents which can easily weaken me to my knees .
Looking into the paper he passed me something like an attendance sheet while that sweet charming smile still decorated on his facewhich is probably gonnabe my biggest disgraction .
'You got to stop doing this '
" As you say Bella let's fill this up and then we'll move ahead "
And just like that it was finally time to start my day officially .
