I'd come for you

Chapter 9: PROMISE ME NO PROMISES!

"He is with Aakash." I said, smirking.

And once again, two heads turned so quickly, I wonder they didn't get any whiplash!

And a soft chuckle left my lips as I leaned back and propped my legs up. From the corner of my eye, I can see their eyes widened and jaw slacked.

"WHAT?" They both exclaimed in unison as if they didn't hear what I said.

Could this get any funnier? I was biting my lip so hard to keep my laughter at bay. Okay so lets see what we have here.

Adi knew Aakash. Aakash knew Adi. Nick knew Aakash. Aakash knew Nick. But Adi didn't know Nick knows Aakash. And Nick doesn't know either that I and Adi both know Aakash.

Adi is shocked because he didn't expect him here. Nick is either questioning whether he should react assuming I am talking about the Aakash that I happen to know as well as him or get his ears checked instead. Oh poor Nick!

However, I have to admit that they both look quite adorable with their eyes widened and mouth opening and closing fish like. But I can't quite figure out who's more shocked.

I heard a distant voice call out, but couldn't hear properly. I looked around to see all the campers moving. Without thinking twice, I immediately run with my bag pack sweeping the floor.

Hey! Don't look at me that way! It was heavy alright! A girl could only do so much.

When I reached I looked back and mentally congratulated myself. I'd lost them. I went to the the corner where no one would be able to find me but I would have a good look of them. They are bulky anyway, so I won't have any problem finding them if they're here already.

I didn't want the four hounds on my back all the time. I was frustrated already with the jet lag and didn't want to satisfy their ego they get by torturing me. Cause if that happened I would surely flip a bitch on them and they wouldn't like it one bit. But I didn't want to be rude to them. So, if you can't stop others, you tame yourself. That's called being smart.

"Mmm. It feels like heaven." I mumble into the sheets as I throw myself onto the bed, face first.

The linens are branded and I bet the bed was made of memory foam cause I just drowned in it as my weight fell on the bed. The sheets smell like room freshener. All in all, it's on the second number on I LOVE... list.

Oh. Number one you ask? Its ma bae! None other than....food!!!

Well, at the airport we were escorted to a bus which bought to this luxurious inn. During the journey we were introduced to our guides. There were two- David and Victoria. They both were really helpful to me. It is due to their courtesy that I got this small yet luxurious room, all to myself. When I happened to ask them if I could get a small room cause I didn't have company-which was probably a lie-they immediately pulled out a key card saying they were prepared if they encountered a case like me. And I couldn't be more grateful to them.

I find fun in little things. I don't like big. Big is overrated.

Well I didn't know when I fell asleep admiring the beauty of my small and safe heaven, but I woke up to someone banging the door. It wasn't the soft knocks that indicates room service. This bang screamed authority.

I immediately sprung up at the noise. My heart thudding inside my rib cage. My eyes so wide as saucers as I take in my surrounding. With my hands clutching the blanket, I collected my thoughts and calmed myself but it wasn't helping. I was shivering now. And I know it's not because if the cold, I had the tolerance to 2 degrees for heavens sake! It was because I was startled from my sleep. Every time something like this happened, my mother was always by my side, muttering soft soothing of everything being all right.
