His little wife [Editing]

chapter 17

Daisy ran down the pavements immediately her shift was over. Gosh, today was one of the most embarrassing days of her life.

First, she met a really handsome boy, then, she made a fool out of herself in front of him, which made him leave angrily.

Now, he might be thinking that she was only dumb. Great (note the sarcasm), for the first time in ages, she finally finds a guy whom she finds herself admiring. Then, the worst happens by humiliating herself in front of him, now, she loses him.

Why did she have to react that way, huh? Sure, she had seen a lot of guys who were in the range of good looking to handsome, but, this was the first time she encountered a person who was described as handsome as sin.

She thought it was only in novels where such a reference could be used, but now, she discovers that she was so wrong. He was devilishly handsome. Fuck.

And to think, she just blew her only chance of dating that beautiful man. If that phrase could ever be used to describe a guy, then, she just used it. When thinking again, she realized that she had blown her only chance at getting him. She tore those chances, burnt them, then used a leaf blower to blow it out the window.

Muttering stupid, while repeatedly hitting her head, to awaken her brain, she walked down the dark ally. It was the same ally that Jayden had gone through earlier, but she did not know this.

This was a really dangerous place, especially during a time like this, when evacuation of the residents in this part of the town were being done. But, the only good thing about this place, and why she was so confident of passing through this ally was because she knew almost everyone around here.

Daisy was a really naughty girl, honestly, but she likes to act all innocent in everything she does. Even her face was bathed with innocence but, she was very far from it.

She knew that no one dared to rob her, she also had something up her sleeves. That was what people around here feared the most. The power she held, could bring them to their knees, worst, send them to their early graves. But, she never liked to use this power.

Sure, this was not the only route to her apartment, but it was the shortest. Besides, she didn't have enough money to pay for a public transport, so, walking it is.

She made a mental calculation of all the things she needed to buy, and was thinking of ways to save enough money for them. She was so engrossed in her thinking that she failed to notice where she was headed.

One thing though, she was not lost. She knew exactly where she was going, but at the moment, was unaware of her surroundings. Guess, years of moving in the same route does things to your brain, as it becomes registered in your brain.

She was moving subconsciously, at the same time, doing some mental calculations. Sometimes, her mind would drift to the handsome boy she had met earlier, and her brain would come up with possible things that she should have said, or how she should have reacted, to stop him from leaving, and make him fall in love with her.

Love, it might sound stupid, but it was true. She was definitely in love with this guy, and would do anything just to see him again. It was love at first sight.

Soon enough, when she was sure to be at the end of the ally, she heard a groan. Stopping in her tracts, she paused to listen, in case she heard wrong.

Then, she heard it again. This time, she was not mistaken. It was definitely a groan, a groan from someone in serious pains.

She followed the sound quickly and quietly because, the sound was becoming faint and was sounding like it was about to die. At the mere thought of that, she hurried her footsteps when she was almost at the end of the ally.
