?His encounter with a Widow?
•(love,lies and suspense)•
?Episode Thirteen ?
|•Flora POV•|
I could feel a breath fanning on my face,
I slowly opened my eyes and found Zayn crouched in front of me.
He met my gaze and stood up immediately.
Huh?
When did he arrive?
“You don’t sleep here” he said in his cold voice and I gulped nervously as I also stood on my feet.
How do I tell him I was actually waiting for his arrival, I don’t know the reason though.
Perhaps it’s because he didn’t eat anything before he left the house this morning.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to” I said slowly with my eyes on my feet.
“Go to your room” he ordered.
I bow my head slightly and walk away feebly.
I can never like this guy.. I thought as I ascend the stairs slowly.
I stepped into my room and headed straight to the bathroom.
I feel so tired to take my bath right now but I really nee-d to, it would help.
I unclad myself and stepped un-der the shower.

I dried my hair and packed it to a high ponytail.
I changed to my pjamas and slumped myself tiredly onto the bed.
Oh Lord
Why do I feel so tired?
I yawned loudly and cover myself with the duvet.

#The_next_morning
I heard a knock on my door and I je-rked awake.
“Flora” I heard Mrs Roseline voice from outside and I breath out.
“Come in Mrs Roseline” I told her and I watch as the door creaked open.
She stepped in with a wide smile on her face.
“Why are you still in bed Flora?” She asked immediately she sit her as-s at the edge of the bed.
My eyes drifted to the wall clock and a light gasp escaped my mouth; it’s 9:00am.
“I never knew the time has gone, I felt so tired last night I guess that’s the reason I slept this long” I defended and she smile.
She stood on her feet and sit next to me on the bed.
“And how are you feeling now?” She asked in a motherly tone as she stro-ke my hair tenderly.
She’s such a darling.
I wonder if she has a family.
“I’m good as new now Mrs Roseline” I replied with a smile on my face.
“Let’s get to work” I told her as I toss the duvet aside.
She grabbed my hand and I look at her smiling face.
“Don’t tell me you’re done cooking?” I asked in a low voice and she laughed.
“Of course Flora, so you nee-d to sit back and have some rest” she tutors and a frown crept on my face.
“Don’t give me that look dear, you’re having breakfast in bed today” she stood on her feet and slide her feet into her sli-ppers.
I watch her back as she walk away.
She grabbed the doorknob and look behind; she caught me pouting my li-ps and she chuckled before stepping out of the room.
Geez!
Until when am I going to learn how to prepare dishes huh?

Zayn POV:
I was walking down the hallway but stop walking when i saw Mrs Roseline walking towards lady in black room with a tray in her hand.
She glance at my direction and halted her steps also.
She urge me to come closer and I scoffed before walking up to her.
“Your breakfast is set” she told me but I just stare at the tray in her hands.
“And where are you taking this to?” I asked her- trying to sound polite.
She acts just like Mum and she’s the only person I act all politely to; she has been working for me for quiet long now and she never for once disobey me and that’s the more reason I respect her so much.
“To Flora’s room” she replied and i scoffed softly.
“She’s not feeling too well, so she nee-ds maximum rest” she added and I rolled my eyes.
“You never cared about my past bitc-hes, so why do you seem to care about her?” I asked her and she smiled.
“She’s different Zayn” she said simply and walked past me.
What the?
——-
I rushed my breakfast and gulped my coffee.
I stood up from the chair and walk into the living room, my eyes traveled to the hallway and I sighed.
Should I check on her or not?
I shook my head sideways and walked out of the living room.
???
?Flora?
I’m feeling so much better now.
Mrs Roseline had left already and I wouldn’t deny the fact that I’m missing her.
She brou-ght my breakfast this morning together with some pills.
She’s just like my mum.
Gosh!
I’m tired of watching the TV already.
I stood on my feet and slide my feet into my sli-ppers.
I got to the kitchen and my eyes caught the garbage.
Good
Maybe I should dispose this.
——-
I stepped out of the building and smile widely.
Whoa..
I’ve never stepped out of the compound ever since I got here.
Everywhere looks so beautiful.
I stood rooted with the garbage in my right hand.
Oh
Where do I dump this?
I walk forward and decided to walk down the street, I should definitely find a garbage can down there.. I thought as I walk throu-ghthe silent street.
I keep darting my eyes from a house to another in amusement.
Very pretty houses.
“Hey Miss” I heard a voice from behind and I turned to look.
I could feel my heart hammered in my che-st at the sight before me.

?Episode Fourteen ?
?Flora?
“Hey Miss” I heard a voice behind me and I turned to look.
My heart hammered in my che-st at the sight before me.
Oh my world!
Who’s this beauty?
The ray of the sun shines brightly to his blondie hair.
He’s clad in a simple blue t-shirt with a black shorts; his moist pink li-ps is what I can’t describe.
Gosh
His emerald eyes stare directly into mine and I swallowed ha-rd.
“Uhm.. Hi” I mumbled and look away from his face.
“I’m sorry for bothering you Miss, but I nee-d your help”he began and I nodded.
“I can’t find my way back to my street,I mean I’m new to this environment” he added and I smile.
“I’m new here also Mr, as you can see I want to dump this garbage but I don’t even have an idea where the recycle bin is” I told him and he mouthed an “oh”
“Anyways, I’m David and you?” He introduced with the most genuine smile I’ve ever seen as he offered an handshake.
“My name is Flora” I replied with my rare smile and we both shook hands.
Holy cow!
His hands feel so warm against mine.
“It’s my plea-sure to meet you Flora” he said but i just stare at the loose strand of hair on his forehead.
This guy is so cute.
“Flora” he called and I jolted out of my thoughts.
“Uhm..yeah.. same here” I stuttered but he just smile at me.
Flora you nee-d to get yourself together.. my subconscious mind cautioned and I nodded.
He let go of my hand and I felt sad immediately.
Geez!
“So we should look for the garbage can right?” He asked as he stand next to me.
He stretched his hand forward to me but I just stare at him.
“C’mon, I don’t mean any harm besides we’re friends already isn’t it?” He added and I chuckle.
He collected the garbage from me and I smile at his warm gesture.
I wish I’d came across him that night but instead I encountered with an inked guy.. I thought with a secret eye roll.
———–
“So what do you like doing at your leisure time? David asked as we both approach Zayn’s building.
We’ve disposed the refuse and it was as if I’ve been told before, cause the recycle bin was truly down the estate.
David had located his lost house.. funny.
His estate is next to Zayn’s estate and according to what he’d told me, he lives in the USA.
He’d came here to pay his big brother a visit.
“Uhm.. I really love reading novels” I replied him with so much ecstasy in my voice.
“Wow” he wowed and I nodded with a bright smile on my face.
Novel is my first love.
“Girls really loves reading novels isn’t it?” He said and I shrugged.
“I think it’s not every ladies, I can remember when I was in highschool there was this my close friend who really dislikes anything novel” I told him and he smile.
“Really?” He asked.
“What did she like then?” He added and i laugh.
I can’t even remember her name again.
I heard the screeching sound of a car and we both turned to the direction.
Oh my goodness..
It’s Zayn.
David and I are just standing few meters away from the gate.
I watch as he looks from my eyes to David’s face and I gulped very ha-rd.
The gate opens automatically and with one last glance, he drove into the compound.
“Bye David” I waved at him as I run towards the gate.
“Hang on Flora, when next can I come see you? You haven’t even tell me about yourself yet” he rushed his words as he run behind me.
Without sparing him one more look, I opened the gate and rushed in; I look forward and saw Zayn stepping out from his car in the garage.
He met my gaze and I froze instantly.
Holy Jesus!
How do I face him now?
I took my eyes to the entrance door and hasten my steps towards it.
Good lord, let him not say anything I pray inwardly as I approach the door.
“Who was the guy?” My heart beat tremendously when I heard his voice.
Gosh
I’m already close to the door.
I shut my eyes ti-ghtly and opened them again.
I summoned up courage and turned to him, the last thing he would do is to send me out of his house right?
What’s he even doing home this early?
He never returns back in the noon, perhaps he’d came to pick something.
His hands are already tucked in his trouser pocket, his grey shirt is not bu-ttoned which gave me the access to stare at his inked che-st.
“I just asked a question” he reminded sternly as he counted his steps towards me.
Oh Lord.
That cold voice..
“I..uhmm..he’s a friend” I gabbled and he huffed softly as he stand before me.
Oh no..
Flora, I warned you not to leave your mum’s house didn’t I? My subconscious mind mocked and believe me, I feel like placing a gun to her head right now.
“And since when did you start keeping friends in the neighborhood?” He asked in his baritone voice again and I could feel my throat ti-ghtened.
Somebody should please shoot me.
