"and if I asked you to name all the things that you love,how long would it take for you to name yourself?"
-UnknownElisa's POV
"Elisa" I stopped in my track when I heard that voice. 'No it can't be. He can not be here.' I turned back slowly and froze. There he was. Standing there like nothing happened. How can he still look so handsome! He took a step toward me and I unconsciously took a step back. Which seemed to displease him and brought a frown to his face.
He still walked up to me. But before he could reach me Eva and Ally stood in front of me blocking his path. 'Thank god. Thank you so much guys.' It seemed to displease him more. 'Oh no. Is he going to tell my dad? Its all because of him. All this mess is happening after I met him.' Suddenly I didn't want to see him. I didn't want to be in here with him anymore. With Eva and Ally stopping him it was my only chance. I just ran away from there.
I didn't care where I was going I just needed to be away from him. All these drama was getting too much. I didn't wanted to be in this mess. It was getting hard to breath with all this running. But I still didn't stopped. But suddenly somebody grabbed me from behind I collided with something hard, something warm. I would have fall down from this collision but the hands holding onto mywaist tightly. But the impact knocked the air out of me.
"Where the hell do you think you're going? Are you f***ing crazy?? Do you f***ing want to die?" Someone yelled at me while shaking me by my arms. The hands still held onto me. I was still leaning into the warmth. The warmth calmed me and I shook my head to clear my head to and I looked up.
Keith was looking down at me with worry and anger written all over his face. The hands I felt were his which still held onto me tightly. The warmth was still coming from him. But somehow it was making my whole body tingly,there was some spark from his touch that I never felt before. His hold on me was making me feel safe. And my heart was pounding so hard in my chest that I sure even the aliens heard it. I don't want these wonderful arms to ever leave me. When I realised what the hell was I thinking I tried to push him off. I didn't realise I was standing near a road until I heard honking of cars behind me. Keith pulled me to his chest again. "Are you f***ing crazy? Do you want to die that much??"
After I gain my senses who decided to left me when I needed them the most thanks to this hot but arrogant man's beautiful swearing I shouted "Let me go." I kept tried to push him off but its like his body was made of steel. "Eli!!! Are you ok?" I heard Ally's voice coming nearer. "You pervert!let her go! I am calling the police!!" Eva threatened. I heard Keith growl. I stopped struggling. 'What the?? Did he just growled?' When he noticed I stopped struggling, he just picked me up by my arms like I weight nothing and put me the other way,which was away from the main road. He let go of me after I was steady on my feet after his sudden move.
Eva and Ally ran towards me and shield me from him. "Are you ok? I'm calling the police now." Eva asked. I was still looking at Keith. All this while he didn't said anything but I saw him checking me up and like trying to find some invisible injury. Usually I hate it when I see people checking me out. It make me feel disgusted but with him it didn't disgust me. It felt like its natural and that freaked me out a bit. After checking me his eyes met mine and I felt my heart skipped few beats. His emerald eyes were so intense,it was almost dark green.
I tore my eyes from him to my friends, Ally hugged me to her I also hugged her tightly. "Are you ok? Who is this guy? Eva call the police right now." I pulled out from the hug and shook my head. I looked at Keith. He didn't looked worried about the police. He was still looking at me intensly. I turned to Ally and Eva, " You don't have to call the police. I know him."
"Then why did you run away from there after seeing him?" Eva asked. I wanted to answer but all this running made me tired. I just wanted to sit down. I was also thirsty. "I will answer your questions but before that can we find some place to sit ? She looks like she need it." Keith interrupted. I just stared at him shocked. I knew my eyes were coming out my socket. I was looking beautiful I know. 'Can he read minds?how did he knew?'
The weather was becoming colder as it was already evening so we decided to go to a nearby cafe to keep ourselves warm. The cafe was cozy and cute. I don't go out much but the atmosphere was comfortable here. We choose a table that was near the wall. It has a couch set to the wall with the table in front of it. There were also additional two chairs so 5 people can easily sit there. Eva,Ally and I sat at the couch and Keith sat in the chair opposite of me.
The waitress came to take our orders. She was a pretty girl. But top buttons of her shirt were open. I knew she did it to impress Keith because the other girls didn't had their uniform like that. "What can I get for you all today?" Even though she said 'all' her eyes were only on Keith. I Iooked at her and then at Keith. I blushed when I saw he was looking at me. His look was strange like he's observing my every move.
"What do you girls want to eat?" He asked us. I was not in the mood of eating but my stomach did not agree with me and growled loudly. I blushed in embarrassment. Even the waitress gave me a displeased look. "Six sandwiches and three.." Keith stopped in middle of ordering. "What drinks do you want?" "We can order for ourselves you know?" Eva said harshly. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to offend you. Please order." Keith defended himself. "Three chocolate smoothies please." Eva ordered. 'I thought we could order for ourselves.'
After the waitress left Ally turned to Keith. "Now explain. We do not have a lot of time." And by time I know she's talking about me. I checked my phone and saw three missed call from mom. I was starting to freak out. I looked up and saw Keith was observing me.'what is wrong with this guy?why is he always staring at me?' Eva leaned in and whispered in my ear, "I'll handle it. Don't worry." I looked at her greatfully.
Keith cleared his throat and all of us paid attention to him. "Hello,my name is Keith Kim. I know Elisa because her father is a business colleague of my father and-" before he could finish Eva interrupted, again. "You're the jerk she is forced to marry!!!" She yelled. I blushed again from embarrassment. Thank to all gods that the restaurant was not full. Only few people were there. Ally and I tried to sit her down as she was standing and pointing to Keith accusingly. But Keith does not seem too fazed by this outburst. He just stared at her. The whole restaurant was looking at us.
"Eva sit down. Everyone is looking at us." "Eva sit down right down." Ally and I said. "Here is your order. Please don't shout in our restaurant. " the waitress came back with our order. "I am so sorry. We didn't mean to bother everyone." I apologized. She looked at me like I don't belong in their heavenly cafe. "Well you should have thought before coming here. This is a classy place. It doesn't suit everyone you know." She snickered at me and I was staring at her dumbfoundly. 'She thinks I'm not classy enough to be here?'
But before I or Eva and Ally could rip her head off Keith stood up and said "Well I do not find this place classy enough of our taste. The service is very tacky and definitely the waitresses not well mannered. My guests and I have been to other cafés that are way much better cafes to be frank. In fact my and their-" pointing to us "families are powerful enough to close down this place in an instance." The waitress's face was worth looking at. She was so shocked that her mouth was wide open and all the colour drained from her face that she was looking like Casper the ghost but ugly version. "In fact I will close this place down because I will not allow anyone to insult my finance and her friends." He added that in a low and clam voice which did not calm anyone in the room. He also grabbed my hand and pulled me beside him.
My jaw was dropped to the floor and I'm sure that was also the case with everyone in the cafe. The owner also came out. "I am so sorry sir. Please do not misunderstand us. We apologize for her behaviour. Your order is on the house." She then look at the waitress and hissed, "apologize Brittney." "I- I - I am so s-s-so-sorry sir. I didn't mean to offend you or your guests." Brittney apologized.
"Very good. If I were you I would have get rid of this kind service who insults people." Keith told the owner even though his eyes were on Brittney glaring. The hold on me of him tightened a bit. "Please enjoy sir and we apologize again." The owner said and dragged Brittney away. "Come on girls let's sit and enjoy. You must be hungry." His voice changed completely. He even made me sit next to him. All the while I was thinking, ' what have I gotten myself into?'A/N : I'm really sorry🙇 everyone. I got so much busy with my job that I couldn't got time to write. Sorry for the late update. But I will try to update sooner next time. Thank you everyone for waiting and reading. Love you my lovely readers😘😘😘
