Alle Kapitel von A Chance Encounter: Kapitel 21 – Kapitel 30

An hour passed as he just sat there, deciding what to do. He wasn't sure when she would come back, and when she did, then what? Her feelings wouldn't change. She'd still be mad at him. She'd still hate him. Arius got to his feet and shoved his hands into his pockets. He shuffled his feet as he walked, heading towards the door."Humans are such a pain," he mumbled as he left the house, remembering to lock the door behind him. Jaida would really hate him if someone broke into their house because of his carelessness. He walked aimlessly down the streets, deciding that it was best to look for her. However, he didn't have a clue as to what he would do once he found her. It would depend on the circumstances. If she was crying, maybe he wouldn't even approach her. Unfortunately, that was the most likely.So without further delay, he picked a direction and stuck with it. Th

Arius stood atop one of the tallest buildings in the city. His crimson eyes were scanning the sky for any signs of Lucius, but he couldn't see him. Where is he? I know I can sense him, but I don't see him anywhere. Arius quickly took to the skies, still scanning the area for the white winged angel. He was going to kill him this time. Lucius had to die. Taking hostages was anything but honorable. If he couldn't fight fair, then Arius wasn't going to hold back at all with his attack.Arius passed over a few buildings, deciding to go a bit higher. He scanned the sky again, and Lucius's presence suddenly grew a lot stronger. He was either getting closer or the angel wanted him to come. Either way, he sped up and scanned the skies a bit faster. He looked up a little, and there floating high above the buildings was Lucius. He was still a pretty good distance away from Arius position.Just when Arius was about to fly towards him, he stopped and watched as Lucius grabbed Jaida's wrist and tore

Jaida just gave him a wink and disappeared back into her room. Arius just stood there, blinking in confusion. He wasn't sure what she was doing inside, but she wouldn't just leave him standing there, would she? She wasn't going to go back to bed without telling him, right? This was her fault. He didn't want to be awake and alone right now."What're you doing?" he asked, demanding an answer."Just wait a minute, alright?" she told him. He stood there for a few moments, his arms still crossed and his foot still tapping impatiently against the wooden floor. It didn't take too long for her door to reopen. She now stood there with her dark brown hair neatly combed out and a casual outfit on. It was another hot day, so she had gone with a light pair of khaki colored pants and a red shirt.She smiled at Arius once again before walking out of her room, leaving it a slight mess. Her bed was still unmade, and there were different items of clothing strewn across her floor. She began to head down

Arius walked around a bit more in the area, knowing that Jaida wouldn't have gone too far. She knew he didn't know the city that well. She wouldn't just abandon him. However, he just couldn't see her, and no matter how many times he called out to her, she never answered. He walked back to the department store, looking around a bit more."Damn it," he cursed softly. "Where'd she go?""Are you looking for someone?" asked a voice beside him. Arius glanced over and then downwards, seeing a relatively old man sitting against the brick wall of the store. He looked a bit poor, and he had a tin can in front of him. Arius had seen these people before. Jaida had told him that they were unemployed men and women who were too poor to afford a house. They usually collected money from sympathetic passersby. "Yeah," said Arius, not wanting to say too much t

Jaida had spent the rest of her day reading in her room while Arius was either lying in his bed, pacing the hallway, or watching television, something else that greatly fascinated him. He was always saying how primitive their technology was compared to what was in his world, yet he was always so fascinated with everything, especially the electronics. Strange as it was, he spent a lot of time watching the news, learning about the rest of their planet along with the things that went on in their city. It was currently around eleven o'clock, and both Arius and Jaida were exhausted, considering the fact that Arius had gotten up at around six thirty and got Jaida up an hour later. They were both in dire need of sleep, and they'd be able to sleep in tomorrow for a few hours at least. They didn't have to go back until Wednesday, so they'd make the most of it.Jaida's eyes opened, but she was met wi
