Mr. and Mrs. Hunt reached home, and they immediately called for Dylan. The servant who had gone to inform Dylan returned after a few minutes and said, " S-Sir, the young master said he would come after some time."
" Why not now?" Mr. Hunt asked." H-He said he wants to finish the game he was playing."Mr. Hunt was furious. He got up to go to Dylan's room, and Mrs. Hunt was right behind him.As soon as they reached Dylan's room, they saw him playing games on his computer, looking unconcerned.Mr. Hunt went towards Dylan, moved the chair he was sitting on, and said, " We need to talk."" Not now, Dad. Give me a few minutes," Dylan said, turning back to his computer.This enraged Mr. Hunt even more, and he yelled, " When will you grow up, Dylan? You are 18 now; start behaving like an adult."Dylan scrunched his eyebrows. " Did you come here to lecture me on my adulthood?"" Don't give me that attitude, boy. I am your father." Mr. Hunt sneeAs usual, Dylan went to look for Aiden to vent his anger. Aiden was standing near the window of his room, staring at the garden, when Dylan barged into his room and held his collar. " Did you purposely fail the test?"Aiden was confused for a moment. What test? Then he suddenly recalled his earlier talk with Mrs. Hunt wherein she had warned him not to reveal to Dylan about him getting admission at the school in England. " I-I didn't fail on purpose, " Aiden stuttered." I cannot believe that you couldn't pass the test. It's impossible, " Dylan yelled.Aiden had expected Dylan to question him, so he had already thought of an answer. " The test was online, and I-I got nervous in front of the Interviewer... I-I could hardly say anything."It was not difficult to convince Dylan as he very well knew that Aiden was scared around people. " F**k," he swore to himself, left Aiden's collar, and moved around the room cursing and talking. " Mom-Dad could have easily gi
Aiden's new school was situated in the outskirts, away from all the hustle and bustle of the city. This is precisely what he wanted, and he was happy. His dorm was a single-room occupancy dorm, so he didn't have to worry about adjusting with his roommate. Most of the students who studied here were from the same town and had already formed their own group. So no one bothered Aiden, nor was he interested in getting to know them. He could be by himself, concentrating on his studies. For the first time in life, Aiden felt like a free bird who didn't have to worry about anything. The staff was good, the food was excellent, the teaching was great, and most of all, there was no one he had to fear.As usual, he was great in academics, and his teachers were impressed by his performance. Particularly, Mr. Davis was like a mentor to Aiden and assisted him in any way he could. The only concern Aiden felt was for his future. What would he do after he was graduated from sch
Two years later...Aiden was scared out of his wits. His heart was thumping loudly, fearing the arrival of his biggest nightmare. He wanted to hide, but that would make the situation from bad to worse. Finally, his room door burst open, and Dylan stood at the door glaring daggers at Aiden. Dylan was in front of Aiden the next second, and he pushed him to the wall holding his neck. The hold Dylan had on Aiden's neck got tighter, and Aiden was struggling hard to breathe." Ahhh..." Aiden gasped and woke up on his bed, his hands around his neck trying to get rid of the suffocating feeling. He signed in relief when he realized it was only a dream. Two years had passed since Aiden had last seen Dylan, but he still tormented him in his dreams. He wondered whether he could ever get rid of Dylan. Even when he was not around, he made his presence known in the form of his nightmares. His nightmares were not limited to Dylan alone. Sometimes he would even dream of the t
The loud sound of the alarm clock was blaring in the room. As Noah slept, the sound annoyed him. Without opening his eyes, he put his left hand on the alarm clock on his bedside table and turned it off. He tucked himself under the blanket and slept again.After a few minutes, the door of his room burst open, and a 14-year-old girl entered inside and pulled off the blanket. " Wake up, bro!! You cannot be late on the first day of college."" Let me sleep for five minutes, Nora, " Noah moped and tried to pull the blanket over himself.Nora pulled out her phone from her pocket and played an annoying alarm clock sound on it. Noah tried to cover his ears, but Nora increased the volume."Erghh!! Please shut it off," Noah shrieked and sat up, removing the blanket.Nora chuckled at her brother's antics and said, " Get ready, bro. Mom's calling for her favorite son."" That's right. Mom loves me more, " Noah smirks at Nora.
Noah stared at the back of the guy who looked like an Angel. His heart was beating fast, and he felt his surroundings were more beautiful. Suddenly, he came to his senses and raced in the direction his Angel had disappeared. On the way, Noah met his friend Rob who asked, " Where are you going? Our class is here..." but Noah dismissed him and continued his search. He scanned the entire building, his friend closely following behind." Will you stop and tell me what the f**k is going on?" Rob gasped, out of breath."I can't find him," Noah said in frustration." Whom?"Noah realized that he did not even know the guy's name. " I don't know.""You made me run the whole building looking for don't know whom?"Noah ignored his words and said, "Maybe he is from another department. Let's check in the other buildings."" What?" Rob was shocked. " Are you kidding me?"Noah dragged his friend and rushed out of the Literature building. Rob was still p
Noah and his friends hear the students shuffling out of the auditorium." He's coming out," Noah says excitedly and searches for his angel among the herd of students.As usual, Aiden stood at the corner, waiting for others to leave. When he comes out of the auditorium, his roommate Jay suddenly appears in front of him. " Hey, Aiden."Aiden gave him a slight smile and saw that he was accompanied by two of his friends, out of which one was the handsome guy he had collided with earlier. The guy was smiling at Aiden, and he looked down in shyness.Noah couldn't seem to take his eyes off the guy he loved. Aiden locked eyes with him for a few seconds and suddenly looked away. There was a softness to his appearance, a mixture of warmth and shyness. It was the look of an honest soul, and in that moment, Noah knew he was willing to do anything for him.Rob urged Jay, and he introduced them to Aiden. " These are
So you mean to say Aiden has no home?" Jay asked, still unable to grasp the information." That's what the records say," Noah said softly." Aiden said there's no one, " Rob says, " Does that mean his parents are no more?"" No wonder he felt uncomfortable speaking about it," Jay remarked." We still don't know. Don't jump to conclusions," Noah said. He recalled Aiden's reaction during lunch when Rob asked him about his family. He could see the pain in Aiden's eyes and the way he was trying to avoid talking about it. Now he had the urge to know Aiden even more. He wanted to know why he was so aloof and what ailed him so much. He wanted to hold him and say everything would be fine.Then one of the Professors caught them loitering around the campus. " What are you students doing here? Should you not be in your classes?"" We are on our way to the classes, Sir," Jay muttered in a hurry." You better," the Professor warned and left." We have skip
Noah was sitting at the cafe waiting for Mia. While he was pondering how to approach Mia, she herself had called and asked him to meet. Mia arrived, and they ordered their coffee and had small talks. " Have you shifted? Are you in the same room I saw you at?" Mia asked." I have not yet shifted, and no, I will be in room 205."Mia looked a bit disappointed. " Oh!!!"" Are you disappointed?" Noah asked." No...It's not like that."" Then what is it? " Noah asked."Do you know S-Shawn? Are you his friend?" Mia asked reluctantly. " Not particularly. Why are you asking?"Mia looked flustered. " I-I..."" Are you blushing? " Noah teased her. " Don't be shy. You can tell me anything, Mia," Noah said sweetly so that Mia could open up with him." W-What kind of guy is Shawn?"Noah raised his eyebrow. " Do you like this guy by any chance?"Mia's face was red, and she avoided looking at Noah. He felt like doing a happy d
