Chapitre 3: Their second encounter
The following day, both Lilly and Maria rose early to embark on their respective journeys to classes. Their paths diverged as they set off to face the challenges of the day, each with a sense of anticipation and the lingering shadows of the previous day's events.
As Maria entered her music class, her eyes scanned the room for Noah. However, his absence was conspicuous. She pondered the puzzle that was Noah's role in Lilly's life, her thoughts weaving in and out of speculation.
"Has anyone seen Noah today?" Maria asked a fellow student, a hint of concern in her voice.
Her classmate shrugged. "I haven't. Maybe he's just running late."
Maria's mind raced with thoughts about Lilly. She couldn't shake the feeling that Noah's presence or absence somehow affected her friend's well-being. But when she thought about Noah, her mind reminded her that she was the one who introduced Lilly to him, and Noah hadn't taken the initiative step. Moreover, he had a good reputation at the university.
She decided to probe further, asking her classmate, "What do you think about Noah, Raiqa?"
Raiqa replied with interest, "He's a good guy. Many girls have a crush on him. He's good at music and basketball, and his music is extraordinary. Why are you suddenly asking about him?"
Maria smiled and said, "Just curious, my friend asked about them."
Raiqa continued to ask, "Oh, did your friend like him?"
Maria didn't know how to respond to that. She didn't want the conversation to take that direction, so she quickly replied, "No." Thankfully, at that moment, the lecturer arrived, saving her from further questioning by Raiqa.
Simultaneously, Lilly entered her art class, seeking refuge in her creative sanctuary. She immersed herself in the act of painting, the strokes of her brush giving life to her thoughts and emotions. A sensation tugged at her senses, and when she turned, she found Noah standing behind her, his gaze fixed upon her canvas with unwavering focus.
"Surprised to see me again?" Noah's voice was calm but held a hint of amusement as he spoke.
Lilly, caught off guard by his presence, hesitated before responding. "I didn't expect to see you here."
His attire, baggy jeans and a loose shirt suited him in a way that seemed effortless and fitting. His deep, mysterious blue eyes scrutinized her painting, his presence casting an aura of intrigue.
"Your artwork is as enigmatic as ever," Noah remarked, breaking the silence as he continued to study her canvas.
Lilly's curiosity got the better of her, and she finally asked, "Why are you here, Noah?"
Noah's response was poised and cryptic, weaving another layer of enigma into their interaction. "I have my reasons, Lilly. Some things are best left to unravel on their own."
The air between them crackled with unspoken questions and the lingering pull of the unknown, leaving Lilly to navigate the uncharted territory of her connection with Noah.
"Noah, you're a puzzle," Lilly stated her tone a mixture of intrigue and caution.
He cryptically mentioned that he was there for someone, further deepening the layers of mystery surrounding him. In her mind, Lilly couldn't help but wonder, "Who are you really, Noah?" Unable to resist the urge to dig deeper, she longed for answers.
As he observed her painting, Lilly's mind raced, trying to decipher the hidden meaning behind his words.
With a determined effort to regain her composure, her expression was a mixture of understanding and curiosity.
They stood in the art class, two individuals connected by a thread of intrigue, the echo of that fateful agreement lingering between them. Lilly sensed the depth of the enigma that Noah carried, an enigma that seemed both compelling and unsettling. The path ahead remained shrouded in uncertainty, and yet, at that moment, she was inexplicably drawn to uncover the secrets he held, to face the echoes of her fate intertwined with his.
The uncertainty weighed heavily on Lilly's mind as she continued to paint, her brushstrokes reflecting the intricate web of emotions and questions that Noah had stirred within her.
