Serene did what she thought was correct at that moment. She hugged Rowan tightly not even letting air pass through them .
The warmth of the hug seeped through Rowan's body and knocked on his heart and for a minute he felt his breath leaving his body. It was something ..... something SURREAL.
Serene felt herself bold and confident when he was around. She wanted to do all those things that normal teenagers do with no reins of suffocation. ....She wanted to drink, hug , party , dance, kiss , travel , date , make friends and most importantly She wanted to have a taste .... A TASTE OF SIN.
With Rowan she felt her heart raging and racing against her chest to meet his companion which she could subtly see in R
"Turn around, I'll help you Zip it down."ZIP...IT...DOWN...Rose was struck to hear what Benjamin had just said. Her mind was processing and brainstorming regarding all the dirty thoughts.'Was she ready to be intimate with this stranger she had just met' .But the pull of desire was so strong that she decided to submit , hence she gently turned around and let Benjamin do his deed . She was scared and anticipating at the same time. She had heard her friends blabbering about their first times. 'HOW WOULD I
After breaking the kiss, Rowan and Serene looked into each other's eyes. All they could see was thirst and vulnerability seeking for warmth . But they just couldn't express the pain. It was the first time in their lives they felt so liberated with no guards holding them back. " I... I think I sh.. ould go back to my room. Do inform me if you... catch any details about Rose. Goo.. d .. Night." Serene said hastily and turned to return back when Rowan's voice interrupted her - "How will I inform you ..... I mean I don't even have your phone number.... or room number. You know what I mean!" He was brimming with nervousness but wasn't able to point out the reason.He was so thankful that it was night time and Serene couldn't see him otherwise it would've been really embarr
Serene couldn't help but stare at the screen in utter shock. Someone was calling her as displayed by the unknown number , she had only 3 contacts in her phone - Benz , Mrs .Williams ( her teacher) and Rose. Keeping her bewilderment apart, she decided to pick up."HELLO" No reply"HELLO" Again NO reply.' It would be a wrong dial ' she thought and was about to cut the call when the voice on the other end froze her. It was him." Hi Serene , Rowan this side. ""Hi " she replied timidly still recovering from the blush that crept on her face just by his mere voice." Umm...mmm I wanted to ask.... have you reached your room safely ." Rowan managed to blurt nervously.He still couldn't comprehend what he was thinking before calling her. His excitement took the shape of nervousness when she replied.
Life couldn't get any tougher for Benjamin. For the first time in his life , he felt utterly dissaponted in breaking a heart. Not just hers but his own heart was wildly raging in his chest as took lapses while jogging. A day before he had landed in Italy . He had planned to safely escort Rose back to her brother but he couldn't.His dad, Jackson Dior Walker was upset regarding his sudden visit to New York especially at a time when there were dangers looming on their empire. As per his father, his opponents were merging into alliances to sluaghter him and there his son was god damn roaming with his good for nothing sister. It triggered Benz whenever his dad insulted Ser. He had never treated her as a daughter and he wondered why.With his sister's memory , he was once again coated with desperation for her new friend who had accidently pushed the ' NO EMOTIONS' boulder from his heart . He had never seen someo
"Thank Heavens you are safe Rose . " Rose was engulfed in a hug."You don't know how helpless we felt when we couldn't spot you. You weren't responding your calls and the air was so gloomy . It was so mortifying especially for Rowan . He just kept blaming himself. We tried gathering help but all we received were dead ends. I even asked help from my brother Benj...""Chill Serene !! I just went to meet a friend . She called me yesterday , she was vaccationing here and wanted to meet me . You know how I am ... the pretty social butterfly ; I left early and caught up with her and we just slept talking at her place."Rose could see Serene getting convinced by her lie. She had met Serene while going towards Row's room . The tension lines on her face and blabbering made her feel guilty. But the truth could make it worst . So she carried on her facade"See I am fine now
"It was lovely meeting you Rose. You really are a great person to befriend. Thank You for making this trip so memorable for me." said Serene while furling her clothes and arranging them neatly in her bag.Her 2 day trip in Mauritius had reached it's end . These days introduced her to an intrepid side of herself . She had so many assembled episodes , each beholding an emotion of it's own. Destiny had granted her a golden opportunity to come out of her hell hole and interact with the outer world which was so enticing and heart filling.She wondered why people found this world a synonym of boredom , although for her it was the ninth sky. There were infinite things to love and live for yet people preferred cribbing. Crying over things they couldn't afford rather than cherishing the blessings showered on them.If someone would have given her the alternate of living life like she did in those 2 days, she
"How was your flight? Did you reach safely? " Benjamin asked his sister who had landed in New York an hour ago. He was informed by his guards about her safe travel to the SMILES Orphanage. " It was fine. Just some jet lag nothing else. Ufff.." Serene let out a sigh while changing her position on the bed. She felt the stiffness leaving her body. Her flight was an emotional journey that made her realize that Expectations are a failure. People use you momentarily as per their convenience and leave. Without any word, without any regard. But she could not blame Rowan completely. Even she had enjoyed the kiss which was pure bliss for her. She had participated equally at the moment and may be granted the access to hope to fill her heart and baam.... it crashed leaving her with nothing but a cracked heart. During her journey, she had realized that they were nothing but mere strangers who shared an&nb
SMILES ORPHANAGE" Good Morning children! " Mrs. Williams greeted the children who had formed a circle around her group, some being enthusiastic like a bee while others calm like the sea."Good Morning miss," they shouted on the top of their lungs anticipating the motive of the arrival of strange faces. The children at Smiles Orphanage were extremely warm and welcoming. Although they were prey to a barbaric fate, they still had their innocence intact. They still believed that their parents had become stars or angels protecting them from above." I am Mia Williams and this is my group. We are here to have fun with you, little flowers. We'll dance, sing, learn and grow together hand in hand. Are you ready for this amazing talent show ?" she said loudly."Talent show? What is that ?" asked a 4 year old, energetic boy." It is sort of an exam, but a lot more fu
