"Hi Cecile" Aaron' s voice couldn't have been more stiff as he coldly acknowledged the girl. The girl, Cecile had followed him from him hometown just for getting his attention. Though she was never encouraged, she kept on following Aaron in an attempt to woo the man.
"Oh Aaron, it's been so long from the last tim..."
"Well Cecile, actually we were off to somewhere and we are getting late. We can catch up lat.."
"We..??" Cecile's eyes got large in wonder as she looked around Aaron to find who the person or people he was referring to. She was soon greeted by two pairs of sceptical eyes scanning her up and down.
Aaron shook in a weird horror and he was about to stop Cecile when the girl swayed her hips in authority and walked towards the ladies and started introducing herself, "Hi girls, I am Cecile Stewart, Aaron's childhood.."
"She stayed in the neighborhood and we just happen to know each other a bit."
Cecile's words was cut short by Aaron's cold introduction as he walked upto Lili and gazed affectionately yet casually towards her.
Wait why did it feel like he was acknowledging me over that girl and kind of explaining things between them to me. I mean, what their relationship is shouldn't be a matter to me. But yet again, I feel relieved and a weird sense of satisfaction, after his explanations and acknowledgment.
Lili's mind got jumbled up under the man's nonchalant gaze and her cheeks gradually developed a beautiful pink tint.
"You are getting tanned under the sun and the recess is going to end soon. Let's go..", whispered Aaron softly as he looked at her little flushed face getting more flushed because of his words with great amusement and love hidden deep inside his eyes.
After all these years, she hasn't changed a bit. Getting flustered and flushing every now and then- Aaron smiled to himself.
Lili's face got even more flushed in listening to Aaron.
Sun?
Tan?
Under the roof?
I am flushed?!
And he has noticed that??!!
I am finished!!
Lili blushed harder and again a familiar affectionate hatred popped in her mind. But she decided not to dwell much in the subject.
"Let's go."
Aaron and Lili made their way towards the cafeteria, forgetting Cecile and Genea behind.
-
"Are they in love?", the jealousy was clear in Cecile's voice.
"Why do you care?" grumbled Genea and left in the same direction as of Aaron and Lili.
-
Keep enjoying yourselves. Keep enjoying as long as you can. Your time is ticking away quite fast.
Patience, more patience.
I will take him from you gradually baby girl.
So what I couldn't have you in the last life?
I will surely have you this time.
-
"Do you still remember me Mrs. Jenson?", shouted Genea not too loudly when she had more or less caught up with them.
The duo which was not walking too far heard the third companion's voice whom they had simply forgotten about.
Lili couldn't help but blush and spinned around to face Genea, glaring.
This Genea is too much. Okay I know I had left her alone but what is this with "Mrs Jenson"?
Meanwhile Aaron was completely dumbstruck as he heard Genea.
"Mrs. Jenson"?
Does she mean Lili?
Jenson means..my wife?
Seriously?
But isn't this Genea the Elisa from last life?
She says me being Lili's....
Aaron's thoughts suddenly came to a pause. That is when he realised that Lili had just been regarded as "Mrs Jenson", his wife.
Soon a faint blush rose to his cheeks as he looked down at the little face which has always mesmerized him, with glazed eyes.
