Our Designed Love

CHAPTER-26

SHYLA

A deep sigh left my mouth as I let myself to fall down in the bed which has been my absolute comfort ever since I've joined this dorm. Being back to NYC feels like being back to home somehow. No matter to whichever corner of the world you move, peace surrounds you in your own place. I looked at Linda standing infront of me facing the mirror and checking out the bump in her tummy.

"See guys! I told you that not being in the gym for a few days is absolutely going to ruin my physique." She said while caressing the bump. I heard Avelin's laugh beside me which made me turn around my face towards her.

"Like you had a figure like Sydney Sweeney!" Avelin said sarcastically as I almost choked and bursted out in laughter.

"Says the one who knows nothing except sleeping and watching documentaries." Linda replied and rolled her eyes in annoyance.

"Okay guys stop it now. The important thing now is that we have to submit almost 15 newly designed collections of winter to Mrs. Rodriguez for the annual day examining."
I said as I heard Linda sighing heavily.

"Couldn't we just stay forever in Bali? Life is again turning hectic!" She said and laid down beside me.

I smiled seeing her. She was right in every aspect. Life felt beautiful within those days we were in Bali. My mind instantly clicked towards Evan. The one who made Bali actually beautiful. I remembered all those moments which we spent together and which are already imprinted in every part of my body that it is impossible to remove them now. But soon the smile on my lips disappeared as I remembered that he didn't even consider it as important to tell me before leaving. Was he trying to ignore me after everything happened? Is he regretting his actions? My whole body tensed up to think about all the possibilities for which he left without any message.

SHYLA

Walking down the stairs, my heels made a clacking sound whenever I took a step ahead. My eyes roamed around the whole place in search of someone. One hand holding all the important documents and the other swaying its way around.

"Good Morning Ms. Gilbert!"

My fast steps came into rest as I heard the familiar voice behind my back. A smile appeared on my lips as I already recognised the owner of the voice. I turned around and ran towards the person for a hug.
Without any hesitation, he opened his arms wide as I jumped into his arms and hugged him tighter than ever.

"God I missed you!" I said as I finally broke the hug and stared at the delightful grin on his face.

"Why are you talking like we haven't met for a year?" He asked and raised his eyebrows with an evil grin. I instantly pushed him back and rolled my eyes.

"You don't even deserve my attention Noah!" I said as he instantly bursted out in laughter. He stepped ahead and put his hand on my shoulder and convinced me to walk with him.

"How was Bali?" He asked with his hand still on my shoulder and both of our steps moving ahead to walk forward.

"As beautiful as I've imagined." I said with a smile plastered on my face.

"What's with the smile Shy? Did you meet someone special there?" He asked as the smile instantly vanished away. My mind has already started projecting all the images of Evan.

"Huh? No obviously not! It was just me,Linda and Ave. We three enjoyed enough." I said and avoided any kind of eye contact with him.

Noah Carter. The absolute trouble of my life since high school. The person who had saw every phase of my life along with me. The person who saw the ugly little me sitting in the school away from every known creature. The person who saw me laughing and crying like maniac for numerous reasons. The person who saw me breaking down in the most crucial phase of my life. And ofcourse the person who followed me into the FITs and is still there beside me.
