Enchanted Love

Getting ready for college on Saturday is the worst thing in our life and that’s when we imagine that to be a holiday. A last-minute program in the college and it’s important to attend.

Clara’s phone rang, diverting her attention from the mirror. She attends the call with one hand while combing her hair with the other hand.

“Still dreaming about someone or getting ready for college?” Alina,,’s words made Clara roll her eyes. Should she ask this in the early morning? But isn’t it the fact too? She is getting ready but her thoughts are not anymore under her control.

“Shut up doll and I am not at all dreaming. I am shocked that I saw him yesterday at the station and that’s why I told you about it. Teasing me for this small matter is not right” Clara replied, having a pout. Alina laughed at her words, making her confused.

“You didn’t just tell me about it normally. You called me at midnight to share this small matter even without realizing what I would be doing. You have disturbed the newly married couple and you want me to believe that it’s a small matter?” Clara could hear her giggle too. Damn her mind. She didn’t realize the time when she called Alina at night. Alina will never leave the matter easily now.

“By the way, you didn’t tell me what were you doing when I called you? Was it very important that you were mad this much?” Now Clara smirked and giggled as if she won the debate. This would stop Alina from teasing Clara more.

“If you really want to know, listen. We were fighting yesterday. So Edward Wanted to end the fight in his unique way and was apologizing to me staring at my lips. I was expecting him to go further but your call disturbed us and after our chat, I found him all sleeping in the bed alone.” Clara went red with her words. She didn’t expect Alina to to tell everything in detail. But what else can they expect from Alina? Clara could hear a loud gasp from Edward’s side too. He must be feeling awkward now. Laughing at his state, Clara cut the call to give them some space.

Clara washed her face and applied a little cream. Taking her bag and everything she left the home hurriedly. She didn’t try anything to look good but she knew that she did some extra effort today and the reason is Alex. He might be there today also.

“Someone is glowing today?” Her friends teased her while Clara widened her eyes. Did she make it so obvious? Of course yes, she has never even applied powder or anything. She cursed herself.

The train stopped at the station and Clara decided to not look at that side. She purposefully buried her face in her notebook.

“Omg, hot. How can someone be so hot?” Her friend commented and Clara guessed that to be for Alex. She prohibited herself from looking at that side. Whatever may happen, today she won’t see him.

“Guys having se*y long hair, it’s just tempting. Omg, look at his silky hair. Who is he?” Another friend commented and now Clara is more than sure that it is Alex. She slightly bends to see him and was shocked to notice Alex who is looking at her already. She turned abruptly cursing her fate. Everyone noticed their little eye conversation and that didn’t go well with Clara.

“Stop it, girls. Don’t laugh loudly” Clara gets annoyed with her friends but they are nowhere to stop.

They started teasing her, making her roll her eyes. She slapped her forehead with her books and the train left the station. Clara noticed how he was smirking at her. How does she wish to smash his head?

Clara and her friends entered the college campus. Clara stood there shocked seeing how Alex came there before them and was standing as if he was waiting for her only. Clara lowered her eyes and started walking fast. She doesn’t want to meet him or talk to him. Her heart is not in her control and she doesn’t want to spoil it. She made sure that he didn’t notice her.

But her friends made sure that he notices them alone. Their loud laughter made Alex turn to their side with a broad smile. Clara didn’t look at his side as she was walking as if nothing mattered to her. Alex reached her side in no seconds making her heart pound like hell.

“Hey, hello. I didn’t think that you are also living in this same city” Alex tried to talk to her but Clara just passed the place as if she didn’t notice him. Hearing him, she stopped and looked at him with a confused expression.

“Are you talking to me? I mean!” Clara stuttered a little, making Alex smile at her antics.

“I don’t know anyone other than you here. So I guess I am talking to you only.” Alex’s words reached her but his smile is something that is making her weak on her knees. Why does he have to smile like this every time?

“Do you know me? I mean? I don’t know who are you” Clara clutched her books tightly and acted as if she was thinking hard.

“Oops, are you Daniel brother?” She asked innocently while he took two steps further close to her which made her walk backside naturally.

“Brother? Do I look like a brother to you?” He asked in his husky voice. He can hear anything from her but brother? She went crimson with his words. His eyes held such an aura that she felt chill all over her body. Her forehead filled with sweat suddenly and she took steps back to balance herself.

“I can be anything but a brother.” He commented again as she lowered her eyes.

“Guess, you remembered now,” Alex replied with a smirk. Clara took a deep breath and looked at him again.

“If you want to play this game, go ahead. Please don’t waste my time” Clara started walking again towards the campus. Damn her heart and hormones which are not listening to her threats.

“Should I explain how we met for the first time? Maybe after that, you will remember me?” Alex asked, walking beside her like a puppy.

“We met in Goa and we nearly shared a room to stay” Alex’s words were audible to her and her friends who were walking along with her. Clara didn’t expect him to be loud and clear. She stopped her track and looked at him wide-eyed.

“Should I elaborate for you to remember me?” He opened his mouth again but she closed it with her fingers and grabbed him to a corner in no seconds.

“So, what?” Clara composed herself and asked him with a raised tone.

“I just wanted to talk to you. But you didn’t recognize me. Did anything happen for you to act this way?” Alex smirked at her flustered face. Damn, he is right. Why did she act like this? She could have talked normally and waved him bye. Stupid, Gauri.Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

“As I said, I don’t remember you. After you mentioned Gao, I got it. Don’t give too much stress to your brain” Clara replied sassily and rolled her eyes at him. Alex smiled at her words.

“Okay then, bye” Alex left the place abruptly showing his dimpled smile. Clara looked shocked as she didn’t expect him to leave silently just like that.

Alex waves to his friends to come and leave the campus like a king leaving Clara behind to confuse more.

“Did you come here just to say bye?” His friends gasped at him and were annoyed at his actions. Alex just smiled at them and started his bike still looking at Clara who was standing there like a statue.

“I am checking something else. You can’t understand” Alex replied, recalling her expressions. It’s evident that he loves her. But what if she doesn’t? He wants to make sure if she even likes him or not. With her expressions, he could see that she has some attraction towards him. His friends as usual have no clue what he was talking about.
