Kapitel 7: Thoughts

- Will's p.o.v. -

From the very first time Alex talked to his cousin I realised something: the girl had some interesting antics. From the tone of her voice I could tell she was having fun playing the pampered princess. It felt like she didn't have a single care in the world except for enjoying her moment of playfulness. She gave the vibe of a cheerful person and just listening to her made me feel strangely warmer.

I actually looked forward to seeing her because uncle Alfred kept on talking about her all the time. He is a very picky and strict person who would criticise us all the time. But he only had positive opinions about her which made me further interested in her. Is she really as unique as he claimed her to be? Or is she simply another female uncle wants Alex to get close to in order to 'heal' his PTSD?

Nonetheless, meeting her then was just wishful thinking, as what I didn't expect was for her to reject our offer so fast and so resolutely... No one has ever been so indifferent after hearing my name.

Earlier, when Ren told me he was 'on a mission to figure Siana out' I thought I might go take a look myself as I had free time at hand. Though frankly speaking, it was this tugging at my heart that made me go. I don't know why, but I was intrigued to meet her.

We arrived earlier than the prime objects of our visit. We were waiting near the ferris wheel when I spotted Alex and a girl approaching us with their hands held together. This was really weird... After breaking up with his ex, I have never seen Alex willingly holding a woman's hand...

Upon closer look, one could tell that Alex's hold on her hand and his stance were emanating a protective vibe. Another weird thing...

Siana was wearing casual clothes: a white body-hugging top paired with plain white trainers and light blue ripped jeans that actually showed most of her white skin. Simple but stylish.

Her arms that were exposed actually looked like they were glowing under the sun. I was stunned momentarily...

I admit that out of all the girls I have seen her body with all her curves was one of my favourites. She was fit without any extra fat but not too skinny at the same time. She had hourglass body that invited one to have wild thoughts about holding it.

When they reached us I was a bit annoyed that I couldn't see her face because of the cap and sunglasses. She was shorter than me and even though she was looking at Ren and me, I couldn't see anything but her luscious pink lips. Her lips were so ... kissable ...

I wanted to hear her real voice but Alex did the introductions. At least my friend didn't badmouth hime.

Wait... This whole thing was getting weirder with every second. Why was I so interested in this girl? Why was she occupying all my thoughts these past two days?

I was glad I was wearing my sunglasses that helped to conceal my eyes. I wasn't sure whether I could successfully hide all my emotions.

Alex pulled her towards the wheel. Ren was bantering about something. I couldn't concentrate on his voice at all. The only thing I felt was ... emptiness?

At this thought I came back to my senses. When had any girl affected me so much? Never! I should get a hold of myself.

Looking at my friend who was now doing all kinds of weird things to get my attention I said, "let's go."

We walked slowly towards the passenger compartment. What awaited me in there left me flabbergasted.

She had already taken her cap and sunglasses off of her. She was engaged in some kind of conversation with Alex and had a teasing smile on her face. I caught sight of Alex who was fake pouting as it was evident that he was having fun himself. I couldn't help but go back to looking at her.

God... She was simply... otherworldly... No words could describe the beauty she held. It wasn't just physical, no, it was her aura, her ability to make one smile just by looking at her. She looked so innocent, like she was not tainted by this cruel world. She was like an angel who had descended to the mundane world.

My first instinct was to protect her innocence, but she didn't look like she needed it. One could tell from her firm stance: she wasn't fragile. She gave the feeling of a strong woman who didn't need others to protect her. She was independent.

Her every gesture and expression caused waves of emotions in me.

I was scared... Yes, for the first time I was scared of all the emotions that bloomed in me.

Her smile was like a source of colours in my monotone world. I wanted her to smile more.

I wanted to be the reason for her smile. I wanted to be the only one to receive that smile.

The wheel was set in motion. She was gaping and smiling like a child at the panorama in front of her. Alex was constantly adding some comments to the ones already told by the guide. I noticed Ren absentmindedly moving towards them and after awhile engaging in their conversations as well. But I couldn't apprehend or hear what they were talking about.

All I could hear were her occasional responses and small laughs. All I could see was her. All I wished to find was her smile. And all I wanted was... HER.
