I've made up my mind to come back here or maybe I kinda run out of cash. I've been spending money on that hotel and I don't want to bother mom or dad. It's time for me to be responsible and I'm old enough to take care of myself. "See you tomorrow! I yell to Evans, a friend I met in the hotel.. (I'm really good at making friends)while walking back inside. Goodness! Aryan's car isn't in the garage and the lights are off.
He might be in his stupid ass party. This is such great perfect timing. I sigh in relief. Well running away from here isn't a good idea and used that opportunity and make researches for companies I would intern for. And I found one.
I applied for an internship in the MCc publishing company but still haven't told mom about it because they haven't emailed me yet so it's better to keep it to myself first. And It's high time I come back here else mom would kill me if she ever found out that I spent a night in a hotel! Not just one night but a week.
Talking of mom... she must be really worried... I shouldn't have been harsh on her lately. I've actually apologized to her but I think paying her some visit with her favorite presents and that would be lovely. You know mom, she doesn't hold grudges on someone and I love her. I will definitely call her tomorrow morning... Go in already! Stop lamenting my subconscious mocks.
"I am not lamenting! I yell and opened the door. How could someone leave a door unlocked what if there's a...a thief oh my goodness? " I'm scared or maybe I should just head back to Abby's, I breathe and tap on the light switch. Hmm... Whoa, how could Aryan live like this... In an unkempt atmosphere and It looks like it has barely been swept for years or maybe the thief did it!.
Oh my God... I think Heading out would be better than walking in... "Maybe I should just call the cops. I tell myself. Hell, this doesn't look like a robbery. What's that! I think I heard rapid breathing coming out from the hallway. Hey, get hold of yourself it might be the thief. My mind keeps reminding me but it was too late to relate what it was saying.
I was shocked at the sight of Aryan lying on the floor and sweating profusely. Immediately the anger I felt towards him disappeared and all I could think of was doing everything possible in waking this gorgeous feature up and easing his pains. I drop down on my knees and carried his head on my lap.
"Oh my God, he is burning up. His eyes are still closed and his heart pounding in unnatural violence. From the look of the way, his hands are moving up and down.
It seems like he's trying to free himself from something and It's a little strange but I have no time to think. Immediately remembered how mom uses to tend to me each time I have nightmares. I quickly rushed to the kitchen and took some ice from the fridge. I add the ice inside a bowl of water and took a hand towel from the kitchen stand and hurried back to the room.
"OH my God, Aryan wake up please". I breathe and soak the towel in the bowl and place it gently on his forehead. "Please Aryan, open your eyes you are scaring me". I place my hand on his head to check its temperature. Thank God, it's cooling down. His hands are in one place and also his heart is now beating normally.
I took out a blanket from his wardrobe bed and spread it on the floor. I gently push him to lay on the blankets and covered his body. I lay beside him and felt my eyes closing.
" Trac.. y " he mutters.
"You are okay now..." I mumbled asleep.
*MORNING*
Shining with a brilliant and broken light or showy Luster, to gleam a glittering sword. Am I defining a word now? Ugh! The sun is sparkling much this morning or maybe someone is reflecting and intentionally focusing it on my eyes. I can't even see clearly. I groan and tried opening my eyes. "oh my goodness.
"Aryan!" I yell and tried opening my glued eyes and at the same time crawling in a lazy circle trying to find the right way to climb off this huge bed. Bed? How did I get to sleep on the bed? I thought. I thought what? Maybe I got selfish and slept on the bed last night after Aryan? Where is he and what's with this annoying light. Why is it still focused on my eyes? I groan and forced myself to sit on the bed while my legs rest on the floor and My body and neck hurt.
"Sleepyhead! Aryan yells laughing and at the same time walking to the bed and pushed me back to lie back on the bed.
"Aigoo!, you startled me, I yell and wrapped my hands over my chest in pretense of being startled. I knew someone has been tricking the lights and from the look of things, he came out from the window's direction and he's been there watching me all this while.
"Hey, are you alright, I didn't mean to. He says and leaned forward to help me seat up. I grab the opportunity and hit him playfully on the head and roll over him.
"You, scared the hell out of me last night! And this morning. Now my chest hurt.
"I didn't mean to make, you worry... I was so tired. I don't know and I didn't mean to hurt you" he says. "Hold still, let me examine where it hurts". He laughs and lay his hand on my chest.
"I thought... Oh my God, our position! I'm on him so close, our breathing hitching. I'm sorry I say getting up.
"Hey, Tracy, I... Thought I'd never see you again.. I was angry and sad. I m sorry for what happened and I... I ain't happy about that fucking Nathan. But I need to make everything right between us. Will you forgive me and come back home?
Home? This moment felt like home to me. Aryan apologizing to me?
"I know that I am not good with words and these past weeks you've been mad at me... I haven't been myself lately and I took some time to think things through.
I'm still shocked. Aryan.
**Aryan's p*o*v
Hell, why isn't she talking or did I use the wrong word? Is she actually not forgiving me?
"I will forgive you on one or two conditions" she smiled mischievously and I couldn't help but wonder what she's up to.. I need to grab this opportunity before it slips away." Okay"
"Err... Promise not to drop English class.
"How did you know that... I ask surprised, how she knew about that... I've told no one.. oh maybe it because I've not been showing up in class lately.
"How I knew doesn't matter".She says and I eyed her suspiciously.
"Have you been spying on me? Tracy... You could have told me you miss me laaaa.."
"Hey!, who is spying who? You wrote it on the back of your English note or have you forgotten when Christy brought it to you? I gave it to her. Pfft, maybe you intentionally wrote for me see.
"You are cute, when you argue but cuter when you are bossy. I tease her... I love it when she smiles.
"Hey, don't try to distract me from the other condition and here comes the second condition". She sighed "Tell me what happened last night... please spare no single details behind it. His smile fades and he... Did I go overboard, I shouldn't have asked that... But I deserved to know.
Tracy's p*o*v
Why isn't he talking yet, is he having issues within like I am... I need to know. The first time I saw him sprawled on the couch, something in me... It was like we are connected or something.. Suddenly the tiny medal he wore around his neck began to glow a sparkling light that covered the room. And the glowing light stopped immediately.
"Jesus, What was that?" I ask pointing at his glowing medallion.
"It shone!..it shone... They can't monitor me again! I'm free! Tracy, they can't see us now". He yells joyously.
"Hey, you are scaring me... Who's they?
"The marked ones and this was supposed to glow when I UNITE WITH THE DEVADASI". He whispers to himself.
"The marked ones? I ask and He stopped and turned to face me
"Unite with the DEVADASI. Jesus is Tracy the devasî?
I wonder what he meant by THE MARKED ONES, are they the same ones I've been seeing in my nightmares." Aryan, The marked ones... What do you mean by that?. I asked curiously.
He looked from me to his Medal." Tracy, the marked ones are the spies of Alaky, the false king who invaded the khan kingdom." He says and I wonder what he meant by the khan kingdom...khan? That's his surname.
"So what does this kingdom has to do with the marked ones, I mean this marked ones have been hunting me in my dreams Aryan. Are we in a movie or something?.
"This is real Tracy, the marked ones are evil. Don't worry, we are in this together. He says and sits on the bed.
"Does it have to do with this? I ask and pull my top up exposing my stomach to him. He gasped as he looks closer to the mark on my stomach.
"Fuck! I've seen this on you before...why didn't I think about this... Tracy, you are Heinan" He says and I wonder if he has lost it like that weird voice, that always calls me Rosa or heinan. I eyed him somehow and wanted to laugh at his word but bits my lips to hold me from laughing. "Don't worry, we have to find Dagba, he knows everything and will make you understand more". He says and pulled me in for a hug.
