I have always enjoyed and cherished the earthy smell of rain. The soothing comfort that used to calm my soul before, was now making me feel pain and restless as the grey clouds stretched over the rainy sky.I wish I had bought my favourite red umbrella. It was my favourite because it was a gift from my grandmother on my twelfth birthday.

I washed myself up, fixed my mid-waist reaching wavy blonde hair into a ponytail, applied some lipgloss and made my way downstairs to the drawing-room.Gran was in the kitchen, baking my favourite lemon tarts.I shoved one into the mouth and Jesus! If this is not heaven then I don't know what is.Grandmother always loved cooking, she followed her passion and now proudly owns a restaurant here in Boston.Even though it's small and cosy, it's still got its warmth of delicious delicacies that makes people feel like eating at home.I have always felt immensely proud and pleased in helping Grandma out with managing the restaurant.With a short staff and me going to school, sometimes I worry how would Gran manage to do it all.Even though she always reassures me, I still sometimes get worried about her.I saw Chris sitting on the couch, casually one arm slinging over and legs crossed. His gaze was solely fixed on some documentary about aquatic animals that were goi

Curiously I looked up to see who's the person, I saw deep black pools staring at me. Its him. God I felt the spark.A chill ran down through my body by this mere contact.I concluded that Its not only his presence, but also I was letting his electric touch affect me so much.That thought was enough to bring me back to my senses. I seriously need to get a grip here. Taking a deep breath I decided to tackle this mess ASAP so that I could finally go my home and take some kind of mental rest ."I am sorry, I really didn't mean to hit you like that, not that I am hitting on you." I offered my kinda awakward apologizy again. I hoped he would respond with something like -its ok or all good but since he was choosing to stay quite, I decided to continue."Look I am really really sorry ,My Gran called me and as you can see my hands were full of bags, Chris was also nowhere near my line of sight for help, so I picked up call while running and smashed into you. Its a joint phenom

Elle was a sweet girl. She was your girl next door type.Curvy, petite and stunningly beautiful, Elle was the complete opposite of me with her talkative, outspoken, extrovert nature, but still, we bonded and became very good friends over this summertime.I liked her curly brown hair, but she doesn't, she never believed me whenever I told her how much lovely they are. She likes my black, straight hair, which runs in a thick mass up to a little above my waist shielding my backside like a screen.Back to the conversation, I asked -"So how things are going with you and Andrew?"Andrew was her third or fourth boyfriend, within the three years. Elle was such a good girl but every time she mystically chooses the bad boys. What's it about bad boys? I wonder if I would ever fall for one, though it sounds ridiculous even to my ears.There was a sudden pause on the other side. I thought maybe she ended the call."Andrew-he is an SOB...We broke up babe." A serious and emotiona

"Hey, Elle."I smiled at my new roommate. The loneliness that I was feeling before now has vanished into thin air."Finally you are here! We are going to rule Archibald Academy."Well, I am not sure about ruling over Archibald Academy. The only thing that I had any interest to rule over was my grades."I can't be too sure about that.""Oh, hush! I will introduce you to many of my friends and we will have so much fun together."Fun? I could get used to the fun but not too much fun."Before we do all that, tell me about this school a little."Elle and I both talked about the academics and facilities available in the school. She especially told me about the dos and don'ts.Like if you want to go for a booze party then Stella's place was the hub. In case you want to bunk the dorm and chill outside for late nights then bribing the RA with a little booze would do the wonders.And the most important part was not to get caught by the minions of Mr Archibald, th
