The Untitled Love Story Chapter 100: Into The Woods
"You never actually mentioned how you and Charlie met." I noted as he manoeuvred the drone. It had been linked to his laptop, so we could all monitor the feed."Well, no one ever asked." Bryan shrugged."Translation being that it's somewhat embarrassing." Kaila snorted."Not really." Bryan mumbled. "Well, I'm eager to hear the story." I grinned."Alright. Charlie and I were roommates from my first day at Cambridge. I had arrived in the middle of a heavy rainfall, so I was completely drenched by the time I got to the dorms. This led to me falling severely ill the very next day." He paused as a smile crept across his face, his eyes glistening as tears gathered in them."Charlie had initially given me a somewhat cold shoulder welcome, so when I woke up to soup and drugs on my bedside table, I was shocked. He had also contacted my head of department to tell her I was sick and wouldn't be able to carry on my registration myself and offered to do it for me. To date, it's his signature you'
The Untitled Love Story Chapter 99: To The Village
Kaila and I were out of the house before Brandon and Eliza could wake up. Leaving would have been quite tedious if we had let them know the time we were leaving. Since there were only three rooms in the house, Kaila slept in Eliza's room while I slept in Brandon's. I had spent the first part of my night answering questions about work, myths, and friends. Only retiring to bed when Danielle came to check on us. Kaila and I were now on our way to meet up with Bryan at the airport. I went through the contents of my small bag to make sure my filled water bottles, some clothes, gun, taser, and dagger were still in there. Kaila's bag held her clothes, pepper sprays, tasers, metal batons, and some snacks in case we got hungry. "Are you sure we shouldn't find another way to get these over there?" Kaila whispered. "We would be no good to Charlie if we got arrested as suspected terrorists." "Bryan said he knew a way we could get there, with our things. Let's just have a little faith in me."
The Untitled Love Story Chapter 98: Meeting More Family
"Make sure to say hi to Danielle for me." Melissa yelled as she waved us off to the boarding gates."We will." I waved back, my jaw aching from the extended duration I had to wear a fake smile."Damn, you look like your jaw hinges are made of rusted metal." Kaila whispered.I let out a deep breath as our plane took off without incident, gently gripping my jaw to massage it in circular motions. It truly felt like my hinges had been rusted out."I'm at least glad to be on the plane and on my way out of here." I mumbled.Bryan had left two days before us, checking into a hotel not far from my sister and her husband's place. After spending a night with my sister and her family, we would join up with Bryan and head for the Gerno tribe's village."Are you at least excited to meet your niece and nephew?" She asked with a sigh.A small smile crossed my lips as I recalled the picture Danielle had shown me when she came to Lindin.Brandon's freckled-faced, wild curly hair, and that energetic lo
The Untitled Love Story Chapter 97: After Revelation
"Are you sure you are okay going home alone?" Jason asked as I was about to leave the bar."Yeah, I'll be fine." I nodded, waved him off.I took a cab straight to Bryan's place rather than the station. Not that there was anything to be done at the station."You are back early." Kaila chuckled as she opened the door, her smile falling when her eyes met mine."I'll explain inside." I stated before she could ask.The living room air was filled with the scent of toast and syrup, Bryan must have done something right again in the kitchen. No doubt thanks to Kaila's company."Kaila, who is it?" Bryan yelled from the kitchen."It's Eiran, hurry up and join us in the living room." Kaila yelled back.I collapsed on the largest couch, kicking my boots off recklessly. The conversation between Jason and Melissa played over in my head. Was Melissa ever even my friend?"What's up?" Bryan popped into the living room, wiping his palms with a hand towel."Melissa is going to help me get the approval fo
The Untitled Love Story Chapter 96: Due Break
It pained me to admit it, but after the little humane conversation with Malik, it took some effort to bring myself to punch him in the face twice before Melissa arrived in front of the cell."Where's Charlie?" I yelled, pretending I was interrogating him for Charlie's location.From the corner of my eye, I could see the initial panic on her face morph into false concern. She stepped into the cell, grabbing the throwing arm as u raised it for a third punch."Eiran, please stop it." She cooed.I pretended to struggle with the choice for a moment before dropping my hand, breathing heavily to sell the act.She stepped between Malik and me, her arms holding me in a hug."I'm sorry." I muttered."It's fine, Eiran. I understand you are getting desperate." She soothed, but I wasn't talking to her.Malik nodded subtly, silently acknowledging my words as he wiped the blood dripping from his nose with his shirt, letting out subtle coughs like he was gravely affected."Wipe your fists on his shir
The Untitled Love Story Chapter 95: A Redo
I kept my findings from Kaila and Bryan, pending the time I confirmed what was truth and what wasn't.There was no point confusing them the same way I was confused. I only told them how Melissa what Melissa had told me when I asked about the phone."Of all the dumb excuses in the world, blood got on the circuits?" Bryan hissed.Kaila said nothing, just sitting in her chair, tapping her feet against the floor."So, what are you going to do?" Bryan asked, walking towards the kitchen."I'll let her believe she's still having her way while I try finding an opportunity for our trip." I shrugged."Can't you just call in sick?" Kaila inquired."Melissa would most likely turn up in front of the house with brown soup every day until I am supposedly better." I turned down the idea."Emergency save-the-planet trip?" Bryan yelled from the kitchen."Are you even trying?" I yelled back."But, he might be onto something." Kaila noted, the tapping of her feet coming to an end."He is?" I asked with r
The Untitled Love Story Chapter 32: Something Always Happens
It was some point in the early hours of the morning. I opened my eyes slowly to the sound of someone sneaking up to us.It was too dark to see the face at the time, but from the frame, I knew it was a lady. She walked so calmly towards us, her hand reaching for something by her waist.My brain spra
The Untitled Love Story Chapter 28: A Night Quite Peculiar
"I can't believe you agreed to having me stay over at your place rather than staying over at ours." I scoffed as Theron laid the blankets on the living room floor."You are just being stubborn for no reason. She's lived alone for years before you showed up, what makes you think she can't survive on
The Untitled Love Story Chapter 19: Domestic Bonding
The last thing I recalled before falling asleep was trying to memorise the final line in the book. Something about one of the greatest achievements a detective could attain was being able to solve a case without harm coming to anyone who doesn't deserve it.Theron had woken up much earlier than I h
The Untitled Love Story Chapter 12: A Misunderstanding
What exactly was she on about? I didn't know and I didn't really care. I turned to Theron who had taken his hand away from my face the moment she barged in."Stupid lady." I mumbled, but she didn't hear it."What are you in about, Cynthia?" Theron sighed, sounding tired."He, you, I saw-""You saw
