The Cursed Encounter

When I woke up today I felt down because of how emotional I was yesterday. I decided to walk while listening to some music so I could release my stress away.

It was 7:00 in the morning when I commmenced walking and the sun was rising making the sky blend with variant colors which was flabbergasting.

While gazing around I found a big, I mean massive farm but it was hiding behind Mr.williams that's why I didn't see it at first.

It had many trees with colorful flowers hanging from it and a huge white palace with arabian embroiders could be seen through them. If only I could see what's inside I wished to myself.

Then my thoughts all drifted away when I listened to my favourate song. My problem when I listen to music is that I start feeling the beat.

So I free myself from all the stress by opening my hands (or that's what I thought) to feel the breeze and I closed my eyes for a moment meditating while I was walking.

When suddenly I felt my body hit something hard and a scream was heard"Aaaah" ohh that was me.

I couldn't calculate what was happening exactly until I felt two something warm around my waist preventing me from falling and my hands were on someones chest. CHEST.

A gasp escaped my mouth. I stepped back rapidly as if this person was fire. My eyes widened in surprise as I looked up at the man infront of me.
He was beautiful. Masha'Allah. My heart was caught in my throat as I stood frozen in front of his stare. His icy blue eyes stared down at me angrily as he raised an eyebrow at me as his full pink lips were twitching. A stubble was lining his stongly defined jaw. He wore a black hoodie which had a low neck showing his strong collar-bone and some track shorts I guess. Ok Ok that's enough sins for today I thought to myself.

" I-I'm really sorry," I apologized shamefully.

"Well it's my problem that a girl like you doesn't know that she should keep her eye open while walking..didn't your mama tell you honey....LOOK WHERE YOU WALK,"he yelled. Wow how much he hates me. And I don't even know him.

I was boiling when he said those word like what the hell. He has no right to be rude and everybody makes mistakes. I bet my face is a tomato right now.

" Hey mister chill it's nothing ok. You don't have to get all angry on me I told you I-am-sorry,"I responded.

" Is your headscarf making you dumber cause it seems that this brain of yours is not understanding. Your sorry does nothing after you ruined my iPod now get out of my way," he growled.

I looked at the ground and saw his crushed iPod. Well he deserves it because now I am on the verge of killing someone. ohh you don't know me I'm a savage.

"What did you say?" I asked in a challenging manner remembering what he said a few seconds ago.

" Don't tell me you are also deaf."

I pursed my lips trying some anger management techniques although I know nothing. That's why it's not working I guess.

"Listen I didn't come here to argue with someone as shallow as you because it seems that you are too low for my standards ok," I smiled at him.

"You are talking to me about standards," he smirked, " just look at yourself," he pointed at me.

I slapped him and I don't feel guilty about it. This is too much I couldn't tolerate his rudeness he's too much to handle.

" Who do you think you are saying those things about me. Do you think I"ll just look at this agitating face of yours while you finish your talking!!" I was out breath when I finished and the look on his face was just priceless. I want to laughh.

Then suddenly he caught my wrist and twirled it behind my back painfully."aaaah"I screamed.

"Next time this cute hand of yours touches me I will crush it into pieces do you understand or shall I repeat myself," he whispered in my ear as his breath was fanning my face.

"Do you?" he twirled my hands harder. A scream escaped my throat and tears began to well in my eyes. I blinked back my tears a few times trying to act strong but they eventually fell and I started sobbing uncontrollably.

"P-pl-ple-pleaaase sto-stop" I begged.

His face came in front of me as my twirled wrist was in his hand behind my back so basically we were so close.
He eyes turned dark while he was looking at me. "don't play with me sweety for I am fire and you don't want to hurt yourself "He said.

Then he pushed me back and I stumbled face first on the ground. I looked at him and he was already walking away as if nothing happened. How could he be so heartless? What did I do to him so he treats me like this?

It's the first time I have been treated this way and it hurts so much.I have never been disrespected in this way. All what I feel like doing now is crying. He managed to undermine me in just one encounter.

I kept crying on the ground for what seemed like eternity.

I was shocked. It was only our first encounter, however, I didn't know that this isn't our last!
