First encounter with him

“Ahh ...!!!” shouted Iva, as she slipped and was about to fall on the floor.

But to her imagination she was not on the floor but ended up in the arms of a guy. He was handsome from the depth of his eyes to perfect slim and muscular figure. Despite being handsome he was having a cold look on his face, as if he had just returned after killing a group of people. It looked like he never tries to mingle with fellow people. 

Just in a minute she started judging him. 

While she was lost in her thoughts she heard a sweet tone stating “Are you okay???”

“Ya, ya i am fine. Thanks for the help..”she replied back to him and got up from his arms.

Aria and Aaron came running to her as soon as they saw what had happened. 

They were very worried about her and started questioning her “Hey are you okay? Did you get hurt anywhere? ”

“I am okay,you guys don’t worry”replied Iva with a pleasant smile on her face. Even though she was startled for a second, she was fine.

Iva noticed that guy who helped her was nowhere to be found in the cafeteria, she wanted to thank him again for his help.

Aaron went and got another set of breakfast for both of them as Iva ended up throwing the breakfast on the floor.

Three of them went back to their seats and after long conversations went back to their respective classes. Aaron showed the way for Aria as she was new to campus. While Iva went back alone.After class ends three of them end up in the cafeteria for evening snacks.    

“How was your day Aria?”asked Iva. 

“Ya great, met lot of new friends. Even professors were friendly” said Aria.

“That’s good to hear, we were a little concerned about how you will get adjusted in this campus”added Aaron.

Iva asked both of them to join for dinner at her home. After they have agreed she immediately calls Butler Lynn and says him to make arrangements for dinner.

Late in the evening three of them joined for dinner and after that played few games. As it was already past 9:00 pm Aria made her way out of Iva house. Aaron escorted her to her house.It was little far away from Iva’s home. 

*Next Morning 

Iva was ready and was about to start to college. But to her surprise she didn’t see Aaron in her house. Aaron used to come daily and pick her to college as Iva’s house was also in the same direction.

“He didn’t come today, but why? Is he fine or else something has happened to him?”she was murmuring to herself.

She took her phone and called Aaron immediately, she heard a female voice “Good morning Iva!!”

Thoughts going on in Iva’s mind “Wait who is she and why did she pick up his phone…...This voice sound familiar!!!”

“Can I know who is this?”she asked trembling.

“Its me!!! Aria”

“How come you have his phone?”Iva asked her.

“Yesterday night, he came to my home to drop me. He was a bit thirsty so he came to have a glass of water. But he forgot his phone on the table.As it was your call i have picked up and answered” she replied.

“Oh!!!okay bye, i must start for college it’s already late.”said Iva and cut the call.

Where is Aaron why didn’t he informed me that he is not coming today. What has happened actually. She called Harrington’s landline number. 

“Hello, it’s Harrington residency. May i know who you are?”said Butler.

“Hi, i am Iva Sheng. Can you put Aaron on the line,please”she asked.

“Ya sure mam, just give me a minute.”he replied.

After few minutes he replied saying that master is not available as he left for Los Angeles this morning.

(Aaron was living alone with his grandmother while his parents were still staying in Los Angeles.)

“Okay thanks.”she cut the call.

As she was not familiar with his situation, she didn’t take a chance to call Harrington office at Los Angeles.

Two days passed and finally she received a call from Aaron stating that his father's situation was little bad, so he has to travel there. He also said that his situation is stabilizing now, so he will probably return in 2 to 3 days.

She was relieved and was bit happy to know that everything is alright. 

Three days passed and weekend came, finally Aaron returned back from Los Angeles. Aaron and Iva meet at Iva’s place and were planning to go for a trip as a welcome party for Aria.

Aria joined them in a while, “Well then plan is decided let’s go to the beach. We have a guest house near by so let’s stay for two days and return back after that! ”said Aaron.

“Well it sounds interesting”shouted Aria with lots of excitement. 

Aaron and Aria went back home and started packing the things necessary for the trip. Aaron called his butler and informed him to make arrangements at the guest house. 

Meanwhile Iva was trying to reach her dad, to inform him regarding her trip. He was very busy to even respond to her call. She informed Butler Lynn to inform her father.

*Next Day

All of them gathered at Iva’s house and were about to leave. But Aaron was trying to reach someone on his phone. Iva asked “Aaron what happened? Are we good to go?”

“Actually, Iva my cousin was about to join us today. But he is not answering his phone. So I was trying to reach him. He said he will come here as i texted him your address.”said Aaron.

After a while he receives a call from his cousin.

“You guys start, I will join in the middle way.”he said and hook up the call.

Three of them started their journey with lots of pleasure, Aria was most excited than anyone because she was going to spend time with her friends. It’s been a long time since she went out with her friends.  

…….To Be continued.
