LEENA'S POV
After a few lectures from Rick,he told me that Ariana teaches Taekwondo. I was seriously taken aback.
"How can a girl fight kung fu?",I asked alarmed.
"Girls around here are good in kung fu"
"That's strange,it's not feminine to fight".
"Don't girls learn kung fu in your world",he asked Mockingly,he obviously stressed the world in his statement.
"We don't,we act gentle and noble. We're city girls of course. What we do is dress city latest fashion,that's makes us female".
He started laughing. After a while he shook his head at me.
"You've gone crazy"
"I know",I replied,what's the use arguing with him?
We soon got to the Taekwondo center,I looked around confused,I don't even know what Taekwondo means. I was hesitant at first but Rick urged me further.
"Ms.Ariana!!",one of t
Chapter 7 MAXXY'S POV I couldn't believe Leena was beating those guards up. The Leena that I know never fought, infact in Zino city,a girl who knows how to fight is considered a social abomination. After seeing how she skillfully beat up those guards,I was rest assured that this lady isn't Leena Rashford. "Who are you?", I asked again. We were both sitting down face to face and she was smoking as usual. "Ariana Williams", she replied puffing some smoke into the air. "You fight?" "Uhm, Superior A in taekwondo", she replied showing me her ID card. It read... Name: Ariana WilliamsAge: 20Origin: Zino villageRank: SUPERIOR A. Well, she's saying the truth, she's not Leena. "Smoking is injurious to the health", I said and she just looked at me. "Ariana, you have to stop smoking,it's
Chapter 8 ARIANA'S POV For the first time I thoroughly surveyed Ariana's room.It smelt of feminity with lovely touches.Everything looked potable but obviously expensive.I couldn't believe all those would be mine for the next seven days. My gaze went from the wallpapers to the bed,to the reading tables and finally I found myself staring at her large wardrobe. Gently I unlocked it and my breath went away. Her wardrobe was stuffed with rich beautiful dresses,but they looked too feminine for me.I preferred the rough looking dresses.I searched around for any pack of cigarettes but found non.I sighed as I remembered celebrities don't smoke.Crap!This Leena girl must be too soft hearted. I found a little box and opened it. Inside lay a picture of her smiling. I took the picture out and stared at it. Her hair was in shady
Chapter 9 LEENA'S POV Rick took the kids for today's training and I sat making a video of them. It was so funny watching the kids fight taekwondo and I admired them.The training was soon over and the kids dispersed but the little blonde girl remained.I looked inquisitively at her but she had her eyes glued to mine.Will I say I'm scared right now?, not really,but I wasn't comfortable with her looks."Who are you?",she asked with a frown."Huh?""You aren't Ms Ariana are you?",the kid asked.I was so shocked, how did she know?,did Rick tell her?"I....of course I am kid, why would you ask such a question?",I stuttered."No you aren't", she insisted."Ms Ariana never failed to call us little punks everyday, infact I feel like adding it to my surname and she has never been nice to us.", she said"I'm not nice to you",I ins
Chapter 10 MAXXY'S POV"Alright let's take this shot. Are you ready?",the photographer asked again.Ariana has been extremely uncomfortable since we began taking the pictures.I smiled and got closer to her holding her waist."Shift!",she whispered,the daggers in her eyes."Why Should I?",I asked enjoying the moment."Don't touch my waist. I'll really kill you",she swore.I lent towards her eyes and gave her a bit in the ear."Oh God.. Max!",she whispered desperately, this time she sounded breathless."You're so dead!""Who'd kill me?", I whisper back."I will"I laugh shortly and smiled."I'd like to see you try"We kept arguing till her mom obviously got fed up."What's this all about?,did you both fight??",she asked.We shook out head,no."Then stop whining Leena and concentrate. I
Chapter 11 ARIANA'S POVA knock came on the door,I opened it to see Maxxy standing there.The sight of him brought back yesterday's happening and I couldn't resist staring at his lips.Full,sensual and inviting."Just gonna stare at me the whole day?",his voice jolts me back to earth.I gave him an angry stare and he smiled."Won't you let me in Ariana?""What do you want?""Just want to talk",he replied."I don't want to talk",I said trying to slam the door.He held it back and I glared at him.He smiled and pushed the door open,then walked in."Can you just leave me alone?""I wish I could. Look Ariana if this is about yesterday...",he started but I cut him off."Yes it's about yesterday. You kissed me without permission Max!, and yes that's enough to make me mad at you!""Common Ariana,it wa
Chapter 12 RICK'S POVIt had already started raining heavily by the time I found an umbrella and got outside to meet Leena,but to my surprise she wasn't there.I looked around again but she wasn't in sight.I became totally alarmed as there was no one in the streets.I ran into the rain in search of her.As i ran,I saw footsteps on the ground and I followed it.About 5steps on I saw her belt on the ground,the belt she put on for training.I picked it up alarmed and scared.Hope nothing happened to her.I kept following her trails till I was half way into the blueberry forest.This same weird forest. What exactly would she doing be in this forest alone?"Maybe she didn't come here",I tried convincing myself as I turned to leave."Looking for someone?", I heard a voice say under the rain.I turned,it was Leena. The r

You two worked together""This is the proudest moments of these country people"."We're so proud of you Ariana. I don't know how u got to reconcile with Rick,but I do hope it lasts longer than this".The comments kept pouring in.I was just too excited,the kids each got a hug from me and the little blonde girl had learnt to come closer to me, everything seemed perfect.Making these kids the envy of everyone, making Dad proud.It suddenly felt we warm, like I was at home.I caught sight of dad surrounded by excited neighbors and I smiled at him.Seeing him smile made my heart melt,I felt so fulfilled,this was something I
Chapter 14 RICK'S POVIt's been raining recently and Leena has escaped like a mad woman under the rain as usual.I went in search of her,combing the streets and walking towards the blueberry forest. Maybe she saw that man again and followed him.Suddenly there was a thunderbolt,and its dangerous to be out when its bolting so I hastened my footsteps.There were no trails or footsteps for me to follow so I resorted to calling her name but she didn't answer.I kept searching till I saw something that made my heart skip.There were blood trails on the ground,but the rain was washing it out slowly.I quickened my steps and followed the trails till I was almost at the edge of the forest,that was when I saw her,in a pool of her own blood.She looked lifeless and when I checked her pulse,she wasn't even breathing.Still shaking out of fear, I picked her up
