SOMETHING UNSPOKEN

chapter - 17

Norah's P. O.V

It was Rowan!

He started pushing the guys so hardly as he reached us.

"Hey manh, you want this chick alone? Let's just divide it!"

One with a long hair said to him. All of a sudden Rowan punched him so badly.

He is so damn good at this and here I'm shocked as hell. Then started a fight Rowan with the three.

God! I can see him on the road belated by the three of them. I don't know what happened, with in a second Rowan, was in the lead.

My mind is now playing the role of referee in a boxing.

I stood there, simply watching the fight. Rowan is killing them or what? They are running! Mahn! He is so strong.

When the mess was cleared , he faced me. That's the terrible moment. What am I gonna say now??

"Umm.... Thank you!" At last managed to open my mouth.

He nodded and came to me. Oh God! His forehead, nose and chin is coloured in red and it's not a colour but blood!

"Oh God! I'm sorry for the mess. Your face looks... Umm..." I lost my words. Hell!! It looks terrible.

"That's okay."

"Are you okay?" I asked with the same look on my face.

"Yeah I'm okay and what about you?"

He is not exactly looking at me but in a way he'll give me one look here and there.

What happened to him? Now I'm confused.

"I'm perfectly okay" I said this I turned to walk, but my legs betrayed me! I fall down.

God is humiliating me now. I managed to stand and of course Rowan help to get into my position.

I can no longer walk. My perfect day. Wow Norah you'll jump from one problem to another problem.

"If it's not a problem, I can drop you home. My car is there on the other side." He asked me and waited for me to say something.

Of course I don't wanna go with him cause I have promised myself to get away from this guy and the same guy is offering me a ride.

But the thing is that I can no long walk to bus stop or anywhere. It's better nodding to him, so I nodded.
"Wait here, I will take my car . Okay?" He said while running back.

I think he is not that dangerous that I want to stay away from him. He saved my life and... Wait, why am I searching reasons for proving him as a nice guy to myself!?

He came back with his car, a nice one. He jumped from his seat and opened the door for me.

What's happening? Did any hammer hit his head or what? Suddenly he turned his head towards my seat saying to get in. Gosh! I think he noticed me staring at him.

While he is putting his seat belt I gave him a big smile, this big means I can no longer stretch my lips, it's fully waved and he just nodded.

What? Why can't he just smile? No one is wasting a penny by giving a smile. Is he a robot guy?

I gave him my address. We are silently sitting in his car. Suddenly I recall something.

Is he following me? that's why I felt someone was behind me all those time? Or is it just my assumption?

"So... why are you stalking me?" I just gave it a try.

"Stalking? No!" He is not looking at me.

"Then, how did you found me?"

"I just walked by and saw you with those guys!". He is trying to concentrate on his driving.

"Walking at this time when you have a car?"

"I think this is your house!" He turned to me avoiding my question. That's when I realised that I reached home.

"Are you sure that you are okay with this face... I mean all red and maybe you can wash your face or something lie that you can come in!"

"No, it's fine, I'm leaving!"

"Okay then, thanks"

"Yeah!" After turning his car, he said

"I'm not stalking you and goodnight" then he left. A smile waved on my face.

After a fresh up I sat on my bed. Never ever in my life I think these moments will pass.

Rowan ,the boy who tried to burn my life, so that I hate him so bad.... today saved me and the funnier part is I came to my house in his car!

And also, I lost one of the important part that he fought for me and became a red head.

Rowan P.O.V
*****************

I just can't consume the reality what she told. The way she said my name and cried made it worser. I had no intentions to hurt her like that.

I went for a drive, but that doesn't help help getting away from this. How am I going to make it right? I went totally off that day.

When I came to my apartment, I drank a lot. By drinking each time I try to vacant my mind, it's not possible.

It's a heavy day, my head is spinning. Maybe yesterday I drank a lot. I feel dizzy. I'm not going to college at any cost. I don't want to face her.

Is that actually what I want? I asked myself and reach upto a conclusion, it's not that I don't want but I can't.

I called Chris to get to know more about her. And I sat simply without doing anything.

After some hours he called me.

"Hey Chris"

"Hey, I took a detailed study about them but I can't trace upto it. Only a few information about them. "

"Okay and what are they?"

"It's only been 2 years that they had been living here at a rented house, Benny street, 3rd round, 5th house with her mother and a brother. They are running a daycare 'Tris World' or something. And that's all I know."

"Hmm... And do you know anything about her father's death?"

"Nope!"

"Okay then. I'll call you later.
And one more thing don't say to anyone about this!"

"Yeah"

"Wait !! one more thing!"

"Spit it out buddy"

I waited for a second, to think that, do I actually need to ask or not also sorting out why I need to ask that...

"C'mon, ask it. Or else I'm hanging up!"

"Yeah, it's how is she ... uhm ... doing now? Is she okay or what?"
I asked slowly and a bit silently as if there are many people around me but actually there is no one .

I could hear a pretty chuckle from him and I too know that he would be smirking right now as if teasing me but I totally ignored it.

"Actually she is fine! She is practicing lately for the dance competition, so they'll stay till it finishes and that's it."

"Okay" I hang up.
