Novel & Cerita Sneeze

If I get back to work without giving him any side eye, then he might go away. But just when I was about to turn around, I felt a piercing through the left side of my nose. My eyes watered and a loud sneeze tore its way out of my lips. Raphael looked at me with curiosity. I thought to just wave the sneeze off like something smelly made me react. But I sneezed again and this time, it forced my upper body to bend forward. My hands flew up to cover my nose and mouth to stop any spit from flying out.

A tickle started to form in my nose. No. No. No. Please, not now, I begged silently. I held my breath. Pressed two fingers hard beneath my nose. Willed the sneeze to go away. But the dust under the bed was too strong, too thick. I’d crawled into a forgotten, dusty corner of the world, and now it was trying to betray me. The sneeze came out—tiny, barely a sound. More like a squeaky gasp. But to me, it sounded like an explosion.

Before he could stop himself, he sneezed loudly. Everyone froze at once.

A big ' achoo ' was the first thing he heard when Neal enterd the house. "You are late." The person sitting on the couch said followed by a sneeze. Neal hummed and went to the kitchen. He opened the fridge and took a bottle of water. "You look like shit." Neal said approaching his best friend after drinking the water. A sneeze was the reply to his comment. He sit beside Arjun, his half Indian best friend. He leaned back with a sigh. Arjun was cocooned by a blanket typing something in his laptop. There were tissues on the floor where he sat. His face and naturally tanned skin was flushed from the fever.

Now nearly half an hour had passed and she could feel her body getting sore. He did his work silently not saying anything. How many times she thought of poking his thigh and informing him of her presence,but she just couldn't dare. Hoping for an easy way out. But then it happened. She had that urge to sneeze...her eyes fell on the carpet under her and she cursed. Carpet dust! Sh**! She was allergic to it! Using both her hands,she tried her best to suppress the sneeze but it was involuntary. Her head hits the cardboard behind as she sneezes making her entire frame to shake along with it.

I said thoughtfully. I quickly brought out a sanitizer in my purse to sanitize my palm. "Ha-hooo" he sneezed forcefully and blew in his handkerchief. "Please the scent of that is too strong, could you put it away?" he asked politely. "Okay, of course" I quickly shoved the sanitizer in my purse. "Ha-hooo" he sneezed again. "I'm so sorry about that" I said in a sincere tone. "Oh no, it's okay." he brew into his hanky again.

My eyes fluttered shut. Almost there. Almost— “ACHOO!” The sneeze ripped out of me without warning, loud, violent, and so ridiculously timed that for a second, I was sure the universe was personally trying to humiliate me. My whole body jerked forward with the force of it, and I buried my face into Ryker’s chest, mortified beyond belief. Oh my God. Oh my God. Please, someone—anyone—kill me. I would have gladly dug my own grave right there and climbed into it.

It was just an intuition. I’m so deep in my thoughts when I smell snow and an earthy-woody scent, and I know Nate must be close. I look up, and the minute our eyes lock, I sneeze and then sneeze again. He bursts out laughing. “I haven’t sneezed all day,” I tell him joining him in laughing at my expense. “So, then it’s me. You sneeze when you smell me.” “I don’t know; it’s weird.” I look up at him. He stands so close that I have to recline my head a bit.

I countered. She chuckled softly. “Well, that explains a lot.” Just then, my nose itched and I sneezed—once, then twice. She smirked at me. “Look at the guy who claims cold is normal.” “It’s nothing,” I said, waving it off. “Just the new environment.”

I changed into some dry clothes all while sneezing and coughing. My chest felt like it was hollowed out with each sneeze. I could not feel my nose anymore; my head was thundering and my ears were ringing. I was starting to get numb. All I felt was blankness at that moment when I lay down. I felt tears streaming down my cheeks but all it did was drench the pillow rather than make me feel lighter.
