Chapter no.04
Eli (Aaron's Sister)
Brother, you are back early today.
Eli (Aaron's Sister)
Brother..... Brother(loudly)
Aaron
Oh, what were you saying?
Eli (Aaron's Sister)
Nothing. But why are you spacing out? Did something happen?
Aaron
No, just stressed out due to the upcoming examinations.
Eli (Aaron's Sister)
Okay, If you say so.
Aaron walks towards his room.
Jumps straight onto his bed
Aaron
So frustrating. I shouldn't be wasting my energy thinking about trivial matters.
Aaron
I should get changed and start studying. I don't want to lose my top spot.
Aaron
I'm having difficulty concentrating.
Aaron
That girl, last I remember, I met her on my way to my part-time job.
Aaron
It happened around three weeks ago.
Aaron is on his way to his part-time job while talking on the phone with his friend.
Aaron
Yeah, so you finally got the video game you were looking for.
Neel(Aaron's friend)
If you are free this weekend, come to my place, so that we can play together.
Aaron
No, Exams are coming, soon so I have to study
Neel(Aaron's friend)
Come on take a break sometimes. We still have one month left. It will be fun. Just say Yes, we won't play for long.
Aaron
Fine, meet you..at..
Someone suddenly bumps into Aaron.
She falls onto the ground.
The girl in the pictures
Ouch
Aaron
Are you okay? I am so sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going.
Neel(Aaron's friend)
Hello, Aaron what happened? Why aren't you answering?
Aaron
Sorry Neel, I will call later
Neel(Aaron's friend)
Hey, but what happened...
The girl in the pictures
Yeah, I am fine
The girl in the pictures
Okay
The girl takes his hand and tries to get up.
Aaron
Are You sure? you are okay?
The girl in the pictures
Yeah, I am fine it's just that my heel broke.
The girl in the pictures
* in mind* Luke was right it looks like he hasn't recognized me just yet, even though we have met before. It might actually work.
Aaron
It looks like you are okay. Sorry, but I have to leave, I have to be somewhere, and I am running late.
Aaron leaves her hand and moves away.
The girl in the pictures
*in mind* No, I have to stop him.
The girl pretends to fall
The girl in the pictures
Ouch
Aaron catches her and holds her around her waist.
They are standing close together and Aaron looks into her eyes.
Aaron
*in mind* light emerald green eyes like marbles.
The girl in the pictures
It looks like my ankle sprained from the fall earlier.
Aaron
I am sorry, I shouldn't have left like that. Let me take you to the bench.
Aaron placed her hand on his shoulders and his hand around her waist.
Aaron makes her sit on the bench.
Aaron
You sit here. I am going...
The girl in the pictures
What are you leaving me again ?
She grabs the corner of his T-shirt.
The girl in the pictures
How can you be so cruel? Leave an injured person like that.
Aaron with an awkward smile on his face
Aaron
No, I wasn't going to leave this time. I was just going to the medical store to get a pain relief spray for you.
The girl takes a sigh of relief
The girl in the pictures
*in mind* oops, it looks like I overreacted just now.
The girl with an awkward looking face and fake smile.
The girl in the pictures
Oh, okay.Sorry
The girl in the pictures
Yeah !?
Aaron
Please leave my T-shirt you are stretching it.
The girl looks down towards her hand with a shocked expression on her face and leaves his t-shirt immediately.
The girl in the pictures
Uh-oh, *bowing continuously* I.. am..sorry
Aaron
No, don't be. I will be right back
The girl in the pictures
*in mind* so embarrassing *ding*
She gets a message from someone
The girl in the pictures
* reading the message*Stop looking so awkward. You have to make both of you look like a couple, or else the pictures won't come out well.
The girl in the pictures
That moron, it's easier said than done.
The girl in the pictures
*in mind* oh..he is coming back.
The girl places her hand on her ankle and tries to look as if she is in pain.
Aaron gets on his knees and places the packet on ground
Aaron removes the spray from the packet and takes her ankle and places it on his knee
The girl in the pictures
Hey.. What are you doing?
Aaron
What do you mean? I am trying to help you.
Girl places both her hands on her skirt and holds tightly from lifting it up.
The girl in the pictures
I can do that myself.
Aaron
What? I thought you needed my help. That's why you were stopping me from going
The Girl with an embarrassed look on her face.
The girl in the pictures
Yeah, but not like this.
Aaron
*pretends that he wasn't listening* It looks like there is a swelling. Don't worry it doesn't look like you pulled a tendon or anything.
The girl in the pictures
Hey!?
The girl in the pictures
*in mind* Is he listening to me or not? Oh God, how can anyone wear this thing. It gets lifted so easily. *Her face starts to become red *
When she looked up she saw a camera lens.
She takes her hands back and tries to not look embarrassed.
Aaron wraps a bandage around her ankle
Aaron
Here take my hand and get up. Let's see if you still feel any pain while standing.
The Girl takes his hand and gets up.
The girl in the pictures
Yeah, it looks fine. I don't feel that much pain now.
The girl suddenly gives Aaron a hug.
Aaron
Hey, What are you doing? *with an embarrassed voice *
Aaron starts looking around with his hand hanging awkwardly hanging in the air.
The girl in the pictures
What do you mean? I am thanking you
Aaron
I don't need this kind of thanks
The girl in the pictures
What are you saying? You did so much for me; it's only fair that I thank you properly. *chuckles*
Aaron
Okay, I accept your thanks, so leave me now.
Aaron tries to push her away, but she grabs him even tightly
Aaron
*in mind* How is she so strong? I can't push her away from me .
The girl in the pictures
*ding* * reading the message* well done! Now we have enough good pictures so Let's get out of here before he finds you suspicious.
She immediately pushed him away and took her purse.
The girl in the pictures
Thank you again! Bye bye * with a big smile on her face*
She starts walking away from him
The girl in the pictures
*chuckles* hehehe ... That was fun, he was so flustered when I hugged him.
Aaron
How is she walking so steadily in all that pain? She is a strange one.
Aaron
Oops, I forgot about my shift.I have to make a run for it.
After a few days, Aaron forgot all about her.
