" you seem to like red " Rick said just as Natalie moved inside the corridor .

"Yeah it's my favourite colour" she said with a flaunting smile.

" you got all drunk huh yesterday " he said naughtily

" yeah I did . God I have never been so out of control . By the way my sister told me she met you yesterday . Thank you for dropping me home "

" anytime . But is your sister 18 ? "

" nah , she is 16 "

" oh . " he said with quite an unconvincing tone .

" she isn't keeping well since a few days . She says she is feeling a bit weak . Maybe she's got common cold or something "

" yeah I guess but let me know if you want some help " he said .

That day they had a theory class . Love was in the air for sure . Both Natalie and Rick were sitting next to each other.

She could smell the enchanting aftershave whenever he turned towards her and she would , for a second believe in those fairy tales which said that there WAS A PRINCE CHARMING .

There was a short lunch break . Natalie had made some sandwiches for herself while Rick had pizza .

" Italian again ! Why do you like Italian food so much " she said rolling her eyes .

" yeah I like Italian a lot cause it's amazing ! Who doesn't like pizza , expect for some girl wanting to become a gynaecologist and sitting next to a very very very hot guy"

" oh really " she said with a smirk .

" yes really " he said , in quite a similar tone .

Both of them began laughing.

The class was over and about a month that they knew each other . They both knew that somewhere in their hearts , both of them were stalking each other long time before they even knew the other

Human psychology . They just tend to get attracted to the other sex during adolescence.

And some cases , even after that .

" I came to your house yesterday . You paint very well" .

Natalie began laughing . And she didn't stop . Like literally .

" you like my painting ?" She confirmed while Rick too joined her with a small giggle .

" I suck , like completely " she reported .

" but I saw a painting in your wall , it seemed quite pretty "

" oh that one " she said " that one was gifted to me by one of my friends .

----------------

" are you ok baby " he said .
" yeah I'm feeling better " said Daisy as she lay in her room , with her boyfriend sitting next to her .

" I don't know what is happening with me " she said.

" maybe you need some rest and don't worry about the other things I'll handle it " he said .

" I think every thing has gone wrong after I came back from Scotland "

" no baby that's not the thing" said her boyfriend . " you seem a bit changed after the prom .

"An upset stomach maybe " she said and kissed him goodbye.

------------

" what the hell is your problem Jennifer " said a rude voice from over the phone .

" I am doing every fucking possible thing to make you and your daughters happy . What more you want me to do huh " he said

" my daughters . Are they only mine ? " replied Jennifer sobbing .

" 3 years Charles ,3 years.it's a long time . You hardly come home . You hardly make us feel like a family . And I haven't said a word . Can't you come for once . Not for once . Your daughter is turning 25 tommorow . Did you even congratulate Natalie? . You are hopeless . "

" bloody asshole . I know my daughters better than you just wait until Natalie becomes a surgeon . She will kick you out of the house " Said Charles .

" let's see . I love her and I know
who you love . So don't show me that freaking attitude of yours " and she hung up .

" nice tie " said Natalie as she saw Rick's picture .

" yeah I was gifted that tie on my birthday 2 months ago "

" your birthday s in January ?"
She asked .

" yeah , and when is your s? He asked hesitantly .

" my birthday is in April " she said . Feeling a bit shy .

" oh this month ,cool , but when ?"

" Uh , Rick it's on 13th "

" you asshole it's tommorow " he said with great concern , just as if he missed a train .

" yeah " she chuckled .

Time had stopped for Rick . He touched his phone and saw a message .

" Natalie I need to leave . I'm so sorry I'll meet you tommorow , shall I drop you "
He said while he walked quickly towards his car .

" no that's fine , thank you . I'll manage . But is everything alright ? "

" yeah everything's fine . I'll tell you tommorow , bye "

" bye " she replied and headed home .
