ANGEL OF DEATH

You Can See Me?

On the first day of my job and I was running late. Only I know how I got this job, it's very difficult to get a job here.

With so many difficulties my friend Aradhna fixed up this job for me in a coffee shop. I've always wondered how my life could be so cruel to me. I've lost everyone, my mom, dad, younger brother in an accident when I was only 13. After that my uncle (my mom's elder brother) and aunt took care of me but they never failed to show me that I am just a burden for them. My every morning started with the cruses of my aunt, who finds me nothing more than a curse on her family; she has never counted me as a member of her family. She taunted me with the same words thousand times in a day - "don't know why you didn't die with your parents."

Suddenly a harsh tone interrupted me from my thoughts, I looked behind to the direction of the tone- "move ahead madam, give way to the other passengers." that was a bus conductor, who was loading more people than the loading capacity of the bus. Everyone was squeezing each other. I adjusted my glasses and tried to move a bit ahead, it was like moving in a heavy storm. I started pulling my body through with full force and finally moved a bit. The Bus stopped at the next stop. A girl near me got up from her seat, to get off the bus. People near her started pushing each other to rush for the seat, but this time luckily I earned the seat. I sat quickly on the chair while adjusting my clumsy purse and an eyeglass, getting a seat in a crowded bus is felt like winning a throne - such a proud moment. But like my life, my fate is also cruel to me, it couldn't see me happy.
Suddenly, the bus stopped with a bang. After waiting a few moments, the bus conductor announced that because of some mechanical problem bus couldn't go ahead. I looked at my wristwatch it was already 10, now I started getting nervous. I wouldn't be able to be on time. I get off the bus and started looking for another bus or taxi but we all were stuck near a forest area, where hardly you could get any transport. After waiting a while all the other passengers decided to head to the long road by walking but I was still waiting there alone in the hope that I might be able to catch another bus. Twenty minutes passed and no one had passed through the road. I looked around and found myself alone, everyone have walked ahead. I looked at the time – already half past ten. I cursed on my fate and tried to turn in a hurry when suddenly I got imbalanced and my leg got twisted, I fell hard on the ground. With the strong pain in my leg, I scanned for help but no one was there. Suddenly I saw someone was sitting nearby on a rock, but he was constantly looking at the ground. I was surprised because as far as I remembered a few minutes before there had been no one and now there was – "who is this guy?"

I groaned in pain but he didn't bother himself to help me even he didn't take a look. "Hello... excuse me, there" I called out.

Slowly he lifted his face and looked at me in surprise.

Oh my god, he is damn handsome was the first thought that came into my mind when he looked at me.

He asked naively pointing his finger towards his chest" "who? Me?"

I nodded my head in response but couldn't utter a word.

He got up and started taking small steps towards me.

I was stunned by his tall figure, fair complexion and his sexy toned body. I had never seen such a handsome guy in my whole life. He came closer to me and asked again very confusingly-"me?"

I tried to move my eyes from his charming face which was very difficult but finally I did and uttered toughly-" or who? Do you see anyone else here?"

He looked around and replied – "No."

He looked at my leg and asked - "Are you hurt?"

I nodded in yes.

I was looking at his face very carefully, he was too irresistible, his hazel deep eyes, dark and silky hair, perfectly pointed nose and those unbelievably perfect jaw line. I was looking at him like a moron. It was feeling like, time got stuck and at that moment I could feel the soft breeze on my cheeks n hair. It was all like a Bollywood movie, a perfect time for falling in love with someone at first sight.

He hunched down to offer his hand to help.

Before I could grabbed his hand, he asked curiously – "you can see me? Wow."
