Burning Hearts(Ongoing)

3| Mr. Who?

Thank you AshV001 for casting the first vote for my story. It means a lot to me. I hope to get the reviews of my story in the comments. I will clarify all of your doubts.

I have studied so hard to get into such a good college.

Painting is the only thing that gives me peace and I feel alive when I mix colors. It's like I speak the language of colors, and when I combine those colors to convey my thoughts and feelings it takes me to another dimension where no words are required and you can relay your heart into it.

I was happy that my hard work had got me into this college and saved me from my past.

The only motivation I had was to get out of that place.

I still am not over the pain of that place of that person. My father. He was an alcoholic and abusive.

After his business went bankrupt due to his foolish activities he began to drink a lot and beat me and my mother.

Although by the time my father became a completely violent person, my brothers started to earn, they were able to support us. They were far away from us for work but they used to send us enough money for the bills and food.

My brothers knew that my father was alcoholic but they didn't know that he was violent also. I still have the scars on my back and stomach whenever we disobey him.

He used to beat my mother and I couldn't handle it so I used to come in between to stop him.

At first I thought at least he would spare his daughter but he beat me instead even harder. All this changed when I moved out of the house.

All changed with that one night. Everything seams to be getting stable but not me. I couldn't not stay at my house any longer so I moved forward to pursue my higher studies.

In my life the most happiest moment was my college life.

I studied hard worked part-time jobs so that I can take care of myself and not burden my brothers. They took care of mom and It was all I need.

Peace for my mom.

She gave me love and care. She always protected me from that man by sacrificing herself and I will always be grateful to her.

My life was going smoothly and I graduated from my college and that's when this incident happened at the club.

I met this person who was no less than a geek god and my heart suddenly started to come out of me.

This feeling was very new to me.

Maybe it is just an attraction to his charm or the fact that he promised to protect me and take care of me.

After my mother, he was the first person who cared for me.

Obviously after Nat.

Oh I have to inform her that I am home. I took my phone and dialed her number.

"hey Nat I reached home safely where are you?"

"I am with zeke right now I will be home in 10 "

"cool, then" I hang up and took a shower and wore my pjs.

While I was doing my skincare my door bell rang. It could not be Nat as she has the access then who could it be.

I opened the door and saw a man probably a delivery guy handing me a box.

"Miss Grace?"

"yes, and I didn't ordered anything"

"It says the order was place by Mr. Quinn"

Mr. Who? Idk who he is. Maybe is it Damon. Could be as I don't have any male friends by Quinn. I took the food and went inside.

It was my fav filipino spaghetti. I could not resist the food and started munching on it.

But then I remembered how does he know my full name. I didn't say that to him.

Something is fishy. As I kept the dished in the sink Nat entered the hall more like an exhausted and fell on the couch.

"You look pretty drained out, did you make love on the way!" I asked with a smirk.

She gave me a side eye which say 'shut up'.

Then she gave a smirk, now I am confused.

"Did you ?"

My eyes widened and I threw the pillow from the couch on her.

She caught it without any effort.

"Girl, nothing happened as you think"

I yelled and I filled her with the details of the evening including the food delivery thing.

"N, are you talking about The Damon Quinn by any change?"

"I don't know his full name I thought he was the one who sent the order" I said what I thought.

She then opened her phone and did some typing and all . She then forwarded her phone to me.

"Is he the one you are talking about?"

"Yes, he is Damon wait so his name is Damon Quinn. He said he was a businessman or something like that."

"babe he is a billionaire, the CEO of Quinn Industries. I saw him few times at business parties of my brother. A billionaire with the B. You should totally date him."

What! this girl is crazy

"shut up Nat you are really high now go the sleep before I send your tree dance video to zeke"

She closed her mouth and made her expression like 'I dare you'. Now I know how to handle her.

I then went to bed but sleep was nowhere near. I couldn't not throw away the thoughts of him.

Those dark brown eyes when he stares at me with some kind of soft emotions.

Huh what is happening to me. 'you like him' my subconscious mocked me.

I slapped away those thought and drift to sleep AND dreaming about him too. But sleep was no where near my coast.
