The second Meet...

Bella rang the bell that hung outside the huge house. A lady in her mid-forties opened the door. She was wearing a very large spectacles and had a heavy book in her hand. She looked at Bella and stared at her clothes disagreeably. Mrs Thompson always loved to dress well. She did not like girls wearing boy's type of clothes. Girls are born to look pretty and she instantly disliked this girl who even had very short hair for a girl.

Bella now had the same problem that she had since she was born.. How to convince this lady to give her the key, she couldn't even speak.. ?

Bella quickly took out a paper from her bag and scribbled everything..

' I really need that key that I accidentally gave to Mr Thompson that day, please Mrs Thompson.. you have to help me..' Bella now wore a really sad and pitiable face that finally Mrs Thompson replied..

" Ahh! I remember.. I really did not know what that key is for. There is no need of it for me anyways.. if it is of any use to you, you can have it, but u needn't have to come all the way here for it, poor child.. That little key is still at my old home.. It's a long time I visited Tom's grave too.. Okay then, I will come with you, you can then have the key in my home.."

Bella was so happy at this lady's kindness. She gave her most beautiful smile to the lady and bowed her as a thanks for quite a long time.. The lady got ready within a few hours and after bidding her mother goodbye set out to her husband's resting place with the young girl…

Mark was roaming aimlessly in the roadside. He was really unhappy.. He had never liked that deaf and dumb girl, in his entire life, she looked so arrogant and had a scornful attitude. But yesterday, on seeing that girl transformed into his dream girl made him shatter completely.. He have seen her eyes, those were the same eyes.. most timid and beautiful… Her long hair had brushed against his face when he saved her from the accident.. It had a unique fragrance, smooth and wavy.. But on realizing who it was, his world shrunk to emptiness.. He was standing under a tree and heavy rain was pouring out of nowhere.. he had no umbrella and drenched in rain he walked, to his office, which was still far away.. Suddenly, a car stopped in front of him and somebody pulled him inside the car.. It was a huge car, and the door instantly closed after he was pushed completely inside.. The inside of the car looked like a mini room, it consisted of a table, with fruits and juices of every kind arranged neatly.. Opposite to it was a white board and there were paints and brushes piled near it..

Mark gazed at the person who had pulled him inside.. She looked familiar and blushed red as he gazed at her..

" You are Mrs Mathew's daughter.. the one I saw on that rainy day?" Mark remembered.. No one can forget such a beautiful girl.. Today she was wearing a white frock and looked like an angel..

" I have got a name of my own.. I am Lilly.. I want you to call me that.." Said Lilly looking genuinely sad and crossed..

" Sorry, I did not mean to offend you, its just that.. "

" Don't mind it.. But Mark, why have you cheated me.. ? I am sad and broken.. You promised me that you will come back.. but you never did.. Did I do something wrong..? Are you angry at me..?"

Lilly looked anxiously at Mark rolling her pretty round eyes..

Mark was confused.. There was something that was so innocent and pure in this girl.. He had tried to avoid her thought everytime it occurred to him.. It was safe to avoid her, she was just not meant for him, but even when it was only the second meeting, he could see it all in her eyes, she loved him.. it was the truth radiating out of her, even if he tried his best to avoid her gaze..

" Are you still looking for that girl?"

Mark was startled when Lilly suddenly jumped to the topic which he did not liked to discuss right now..

" Yes.." He found himself telling her..

He saw her eyes twinkle.. There were a mixture of emotions waving in her eyes..

" Its complicated, I met her, but it would have been much better if I had not… I would have been just satisfied with my first meet of her, but now after I saw her yesterday, I don't know what to think.."

Mark hung his head.. Lilly moved closer to him and kept her hands in his.. Mark felt a great relief in her comfort.. They sat a while as Lilly took her brush and started painting.. She was painting him again.. She did not know how much more moments they would stay like this holding hands.. but with one hand she drew him with all her heart, she could live by looking at his paintings for a while,.. until they meet again..

Suddenly, Mark's phone rang.. He immediately took his hand out of the girl's, looking embarrassed.. He took out his phone and immediately recognized Jane's voice on the other side of the phone. She sounded serious and urgent..

" Mark.. You have to be here at the office immediately.. Something bad have happened.. Our company is gonna get ruined.. Quick, come fast..!!"

Mark realized it was really some emergency situation at office..

"Will you please drop me at Robinson Company please.. I have to reach there urgently.." Marked spoke instantly..

Lilly indicated the driver to turn the car.. She wished to spend a whole day with him today, but he looked so serious this time, that she could not ask him anything..

She watched him running out of the car towards the huge building..

Atleast now she knew where he worked.. She had circled the whole town for two days to find him and it was worth it..
