When DESTINY connects........

Chapter 8 : The scary text...

The party came to an end. The guests retreated home and it was about 12 am.
"I should drop you back Susan", Aaron said.
"Not required. You must be tired Aaron. It was a busy day for you. You should get some rest.", she said.
"Susan I'm dropping you. We need to talk", he said.
Susan was taken aback by Aaron's tone.
"Mom I'm dropping Susan back. I'll be back in a while", he told.
"Ofcourse honey. Be careful.", she said.
"Come....lets go....", he took her hand and they headed towards the Merc.
They were driving towards the hostel when all throughout the journey Aaron was quiet.
"Aaron. Are you upset?", she asked.
"Quiet.", he instructed.
They reached the crossroads and Susan expected Aaron to take a right turn instead of which he took a left one.
"Aaron where are you going?", she asked.
"You'll get to know soon enough.", he said.
They reached a beautiful lake which was surrounded by grass for the folks to sit and relax.
"Aaron what is it? You havent said a word."
She looked at Aaron. His eyes were filled with tears.
"Aaron, are you alright? I dont think so you are."
He put his head in Susan's lap and was very emotional at the beginning.
"Susan. I love you ", he weeped.
"Yes. I love you more Aaron ", she assured.
"Years ago as in my 1st year at college, I fell in love with a girl named Samantha. We were best friends and she meant the world to me and I soon got very emotionally attached to her."
"Oh! Then ?"
"Then I thought of asking her out and so I did."
"What did she say then?"
"She didnt say anything and left and the next day I got a text from her that dont message me ever again."
"Oh thats horrible!"
"So please Susan do correct me if I go wrong but do not leave me."
"Im not leaving you Aaron, never."
They then left towards the hostel but Aaron was not ready to let Susan go.
"Can't you wait for sometime more?"
"No Aaron its already past 12 and the warden would not allow me in anyway without me getting scolded."
"Ok ill come along."
"NO NO. You must go home now."
"Princess I cant let her scold you."
   He went with her to the hostel entrance. The warden stopped them.
   "Excuse me Miss you are late ", she said.
"But Maam she was with me ",Aaron said.
"You? Who are you and what are you doing here at this time of the night? "
"Ma'am I'm Aaron, Aaron Steve Clarke ."
"CLARKE! Good gracious. Pardon me sir . I beg your pardon."
"No its not your fault. You are just doing your job." , he said.
They both crossed the lobby and headed towards the lift.
"You must leave now,its too late."
"I dont want to leave", he said.
" I know that but you have no choice " Susan winked.
"Bye sweety pie. Goodnight", he pulled her close.
"What are you doing Aaron?", she blushed.
"Looking at my girl.Any problem miss?"
He lifted her chin and planted a soft kiss on her lips.
"Goodbye Princess. See you tomorrow."
"Bye Aaron. Good night ."
He left but didnt leave till she got off his sight.

In the lift her phone pinged.....
"I miss you."
It was Aaron.
"I miss you more.", she texted back.
The lift stopped at her floor and she saw Aaron waiting for her.
Next moment he was gone or it was probably just a hallucination.
Again sometime later her phone pinged....
She smiled thinking its Aaron's reply but it was from an Unknown number.
"Goodnight my love. If Aaron wouldn't drop you home, I would have.... Yours secret admirer...
"Oh gosh! Whose this? Whose this admirer? Is he stalking me? How does he know about me and Aaron? , she got scared.
She immediately called Aaron.
"Aaron I need to talk to you."
"Yes say dear...whats wrong??? Are you okay?"
"Yes Im", she stuttered.

Will Susan tell Aaron about this message?
Whose this admirer?
How does he know about Aaron?
Will he cause any harm?

Get to know in the chapters ahead....
