Chapter 4

   I woke up because I felt someone staring at me. 'Weird', I thought but I brushed it off.

I decided to order room service today, walk around the neighborhood and self care.

I took a long bath and washed my hair, which took an hour.  I dried myself with my towel and applied my lotion and did my morning routine and hair care. I wore a navy blue tracksuit and was about to wear my shoes but I heard a knock on the door.

'Room service' I said myself

I quickly opened the door, expecting to those emerald green eyes but I saw a woman with brown eyes instead. I frowned a little bit but I just collected the tray with a smile and shut the door, she looked like she didn't want to be here.

I looked at the tray just waffles, muffins and strawberry tea. I sat down devouring my food while scrolling through instagram. When I finished my food I applied my lipgloss and perfume then wore my jewelry.

I carried my phone, AirPods, lipgloss and charger. I wore my blue Nike shoes and left my room.

I stepped into the elevator and admired myself in the mirror. I heard the ding sound and stepped into the lobby as the elevator doors opened, I walked out of the building.

I looked around then I spotted the cafe across the street as memories of Avi flooded my head, causing me to sigh to myself. I walked down the street and spotted a beautiful deserted park with orange and yellow flowers on the floor.

"so beautiful" I said to myself in awe.

"I know right, this is actually my favorite place" a familiar voice said but before I could reply, I saw those emerald green eyes.

"Adrian" I gasped "how did you..." I began to wonder as my eyes lit up

"Why don't we sit down" he said gesturing to the chair and smiled at me giving me butterflies. We sat down and started talking like we're old friends who just met after a long time.

His 21 and his favorite colour is navy blue and black.

"I'm studying law at University of Massachusetts and my birthday is May 21st" he said

"Wait isn't that school like crazy expensive, I got a scholarship there" I said, looking very excited

"We'll let's just say my dad owns the school" he said casually.

"Oh" I said before I realized what he said "Hold up! You're Adrian Mason?" I asked surprised

"Mmhm, Adrian Mason yeah" he said, looking at me

I furrowed my eyebrows "I thought you worked at the hotel?" I asked

"Uhm it's complicated actually" he said running his hands through his amazingly silky hair. I saw a guy with black joggers and a hoodie approaching me, I immediately recognized that figure it was Avi!

"Hey Ava" he was about to give me a high five but Adrian stood in front of me protectively.

"Hey, what do you think you're doing. Don't touch her" Adrian snapped

"Whoa chill man, I just wanted to...." Avi started but was cut off

"I said don't fucking touch her" he said through his gritted teeth

"Why so aggressive?" Avi asked confused

"I said DON'T TOUCH MY GIRL" Adrian said sternly, holding me by my waist protectively.

"Wait your what?" I asked Adrian, trying to get out of his grip but I couldn't.

"Sorry, Ava didn't tell me she had a boyfriend" he said with a disappointed look before jogging away.
