met-a-noia

Chapter 11

Amira's POV:

I exited the passenger side of the car and started to run throughout the Terminal, excitement rushed through my veins as I ran past people in the terminal, looking at my phone and the terminal numbers to find the one that held Ghalen

I heard a familiar voice yelling at me, what they were saying though? A complete blur. I ran across the cross walk seeing Terminal C- 236. Thats the terminal that Ghalen's at! If I could just get there-. My thoughts were cut off by a bright light, and a loud screech. My eyes widened as the car sped towards me, but my limbs were frozen, and I found myself paralyzed in fear. Move! Why cant I move? Move Amira! Move!

The voice from before registered as Tarian's voice yelling, "Amira, watch out!" before I closed my eyes expecting to be make contact with the harsh concrete and a chock full of pain only to be met with the loud screeching of tires, and being thrown against a soft and warm yet particularly muscular body. I opened my eyes to be met with worried amber and gold eyes. Then it hit me.. I almost died... and I was on top of Tarian. How did we get in this position? Is she injured? That had to have hurt her, right? Why did she do that? She couldve died.

A gazillion questions ran through my head as I looked blankly into her mesmerizing golden, grey, and hazel eyes. "Bloody hell, are you alright? Are you hurt", Tarian asked, her tone frantic yet harsh. I snapped out of my thoughts and nodded, sitting up from ontop of her only for her to groan. My eyes widened as I looked down at her leg, seeing a bit of blood pooling around where her wound sat on her thigh.

"Oh no.. you've opened your stitches again", I said frantically looking for something to cover the bleeding. She grabbed my hand to stop my frantic search and said cooly, "Its fine". I shook my head and said scoldingly, "What the hell were you thinking? Why were you running? You just ripped your stitches open. You already risked yourself getting an infection because you havent treated your wound since yesterday, now you ripped them open! ". Tarian scoffed, looking at me bewildered as she shouted, " What was I thinking?! What were you thinking?! Is it not common knowledge to look both bloody ways when crossing the street?! You couldve died! So, my apologies if I forgot about my own health for a split second. I wasnt about to watch as someone else died in front of my eyes!".

I sighed, knowing she was right only for her to rub her palm against her eye and sighed in pure frustration. "Im sorry, I didnt mean to yell", Tarian huffed out apologetically as she stood up with a soft wince, holding her hand out to me. I was about to take it when her attention suddenly shifted to someone else, she didnt even bother saying something as she limped away from me. I watched as she limped over to the car that almost hit us: a horrifically beaten white 1961 Wolseley Hornet. And telling by the way she was walking I could tell she was seething.

"Oi you bloody Todger, did you forget how to bloody drive?!", Tarian shouted, her voice boomed throughout the entire terminal making everyone turn and look at her. " Did you forget how to bloody look both ways you idiot? I was on the middle of a pressing call with the missus.. you ruined that because of your bloody stupidity and lack of common sense!" The man in the driver's seat said angrily. I know he did not just blame this on me, HES THE ONE IN THE CAR!

I stood up and walked towards him, feeling furious myself only to be held back by strong arms. I tried to escape only for Ronaldo's voice to enter my ears as he said, "Let Her Majesty handle this bigot, hes not worth your time. Lets find your brother, yes?".

I huffed and said, "My brother can wait, this asshole on the other hand, I want to see what he says". Ronaldo hummed and said, "Alright, we'll observe in case he tries something rash". I nodded and watched as the two bickered.
