A Crush On My Husband

15. A Crush On My Husband

ANASTASIA'S POV :

The car entered a huge gate which led to a huge mansion. I've been living here in Seattle for about 18 years and I had no clue that sucha giant house existed in here.

When I realised my friend isn't far away from me anymore, I felt so nostalgic. My stomach began to flip. Sucha weird kinda sensation, my body...my mind...my heart was going through. I was beyond happy but at the same time I was scared. I really don't know why I felt scared meeting a person with whom I played along with all the time, with whom I spent most of my childhood days. Its not exactly scared what I feel right now. I don't know how to describe that emotion or feeling. Maybe the word nervous might be close enough to what I feel.

When the car slowed down and stood right infront of the doorstep, I got down. Joseph also got down from the front seat of the car. He didn't choose to look at me, rather he turned to walk into his luxurious mansion. When I began to follow him, he turned to look at me with a furious glare. His glare meant everything he had to shout at me with. It was indeed frightening. His glare conveyed me to stay outside. He didn't wanted me to enter his house like I would spoil the sacredness of his place. Joseph sure does lacks manners in treating his guests. Or maybe he lacks them only when he sees me...

It felt like I was standing outside the villa from the day I was born. All of a sudden time began to crawl. It was as slow as a snail.
I caught sight of a garden which was opposite to the villa across the road. I walked into it. The lamplights along the pathway made the fresh green grass glitter. The moonlight and the stars added to the beauty of the lighting. The crickets and the other insects played the music along with the cold breeze in the silent garden. The scene looked beautiful. The icy cold breeze made me realise the material of my dress. The dress was a soft and sensitive pink material. The gentle cold wind passed my dress to get to my body. Instantly I had goosebumps all over my body. But for sometime it made me concentrate on the coldness around me. I hugged myself to keep my body warm.

While I was cherishing the lovely dark sky adorned with beautiful stars and the bright huge moon, I noticed a silhouette. It was of a male person. Every second, it neared me. Though I was standing outside in the wide open garden, I began to sweat. My palms were wet because of my sweat. My legs grew weak and began to tremble. Though I neva drank at the party, I felt tipsy. I felt like digging a 6-foot grave right there and planned to bury myself in.

The outline of the male figure turned to show up. Oh my god....
He looks different.....I looked different....The garden looked different.... Everything in this world seemed to look different to me...

Those warm, brown familiar eyes....the same pair which I had seen every single day, 6 years back. He was now 6 feet tall with dark,raven black hair.
He was as surprised and moved as I was. We both were just staring at each other. The atmosphere was filled with various emotions and comfortable silence. We had a lot to catch up with.
He sure didn't loose his charming looks which he had truly inherited from his mom. He had her eyes.. He resembled more of his mom in his looks. He is definitely a Mommy's boy.
I smiled gleefully realising everything is back to square one. This minute...this second...this moment feels like an elusive fantasy.

He is right here. He is right infront of me. He came all the way back from somewhere to meet me. I didn't even take a step to find him. Well,I neva knew which part of the world he lived in. The only thing I did for him was to lock myself in the room and cry hours together until I had no more tears left in me. But I'm really glad he is back. Back for me.

The next thing I remember was, he took me to hug me hard. He pulled me into his arms for his hug. The pressure with which he hugged me revealed the amount he missed me. I couldn't help but smile along with my happy tears flowing down my cheeks to drench his shirt. Even I didn't hesitate to show how much I missed him. I hugged him back even more tightly. We remained in the same position like for about....I don't know. But it sure did feel really long.

I was purely delighted and contented to meet my best friend after a really long time. And not even in my dreams did I expect this to happen through the person who neva wanted me to meet his son anymore.
This moment was the time not to think about anything bad....no one to disturb us,not even Joseph. Just us. Just our friendship enveloping us. To cherish and get back to our well built and strong friendship which we formed at a tender age...
