STAND BY ME!!

Strange

The shadows didn't scare her anymore but the people did.

Ryan's POV
This girl is so strange.
Just now she wasn't even ready to trust me and now she's ordering me.
I went downstairs to get her hot white coffee without sugar and ice-cream.
'Who eats both the things together?'
Anna was in the kitchen cooking.
"Anna, do we have some ice-cream?" I asked her.
Anna turned, shock plasterd on her face.
She walked towards me with a spatula and swayed it infront of me.
"You wanna eat ice cream?" She questioned me back, still swaying the spatula very close to my face.
"It's not a crime to eat ice-cream, is it?" I took the spatula and kept it on the kitchen counter.
"No, it isn't! And yeah we have ice-cream. I'll get it..." She turned to go near the freezer.
"And one more thing.." I said hesitantly.
Once she turned completely facing me, I spoke again.
"Sorry for the trouble.. But may I also get some coffee... Ahh.. With milk and no sugar?"
She stared at me as if I just asked her for a deep fried frog.
I snapped my fingers infront of her, bringing her back to reality.
"Ahh.. Of course..cold ice-cream and steaming hot coffee without sugar....ehh...nice choice."
She went back to do her work.
I waited in the dinning untill she returned with a tray.
On it was a bowl with three scoops of ice-cream and a mug of coffee.
She handed me the tray.

"Anything else?" She asked.
"No, this would be fine. Thank you."
She was still staring at me.
"Anna?" I called out her name.
"Are you really gonna have this?
It's strange. You always have black coffee."
She was right and I don't even eat ice-cream.
"Anna.. I just want to give it a try." I tried to convince her.
'Not even in my worst dream I'll try this.'
"Ohh Okay!"
Before I could turn, Heidi walked in to where we were standing.
"Wow!!" She exclaimed staring at the tray.
"Who's having this?" She questioned Anna.
"Ryan! He wants to try it." Anna said.
"Both things together." Now this is irritating.
"It's not something incredible...right?"
They both nodded their heads saying yes.
"Okay, but still I wanna have them."
I said and saw both of them suppressing their smiles.
I turned to go back quickly.
Before I could even turn properly, Mama came to us.
"Ryan?" I looked at her, gripping at the tray tightly... 'Not again!'
"Yes, mama."
She looked at the tray and back at me.
Pointing her index finger at me she asked.
"you're gonna eat this?"
I opened my mouth to answer but was cut off when Anna and Heidi spoke simultaneously.
"He wants to give it a try." All of us started staring at each other.
Heidi burst out laughing and soon all joined her.

I entered my room to see Ambily running to hide behind the closet.
"Hey! Relax, it's me." I assured her.
"Ohh..." She just gave me a faint smile.
"Are you okay?" She looked confused.
"Yes, I am." She answered giving a forced smile.
"Here.."I showed her the tray.
Exitedly, she took it and attacked on the ice-cream.
"Thank you." She spoke with her mouth full of the cold goody.
'Doesn't that freez her brain ?'
"You're staring." She said.
I didn't realise I was staring at her.
"Ohh... Was I?" This is embarrassing.
"I'll be back soon...stay here. Okay?" She was busy sipping her coffee.

"Ambily??"
"Yes, I heard you... Sorry."
This thing really helped her, she looks more cheerful.

Third Person's POV

Almost two weeks, Ambily's father Semion Brooks had turned down the whole city in search of his daughter.
She was nowhere to be found. Never had he felt so helpless after leaving the Mafia world.
He was tired physically and even mentally.
Dazy, Ambily's mother had also grown worried for her only child.
She told Mr. Brooks that her daughter had left with Rhea.
Only a small clue was enough for him to track down the two girls.
After torturing Ambily's and Rhea's friends, one of them finally spilled out the truth about them going to Forks.
It wouldn't take Mr. Brooks long to reach the village and bring her daughter back.
But he had never thought that the angel of his life was already in a big trouble.
Rhea informed him that she was missing for two days from the camp.
She was last seen in the morning, the day before yesterday going for a walk and she never returned.
They had tried their best with the help of local police to find her.
But not even a trace of her was discovered.
Ambily's father had no other choice than going back to the world from which he had been keeping away since his daughter was born.
Now once again he had to return there, for Ambily's sake.
