A few people like listening to music during travel, a few love silence.

Which person are you? Music freak or the 'silence is beautiful' person? 

Comment!!

Maddelyn's POV:-

As I left the room, I was met by a wide-eyed Kygo. My legs suddenly gave away all its strength. I put a sudden break, just the way Thomas cat does in Tom and Jerry. I was just an inch from falling on him. Folding arms on his sexily built torso, he smirked.

Oh, Kygo! I'm not ready for drama right now.

"Care to explain?"

"what?" Don't give away everything, dumbass! stay still and act like nothing ever happened!!

"Where are you off to? Tell me, Lina. I know something's wrong."

"I'm going to Em's place for a sleepover! And for heavens sake stop interrogating me like I'm an accused who just absconded from prison."

Great! keep going, Lina! Your nostrils should be flaring right now.
"This is way worst than that."

His eyebrows narrowed, teeth clenched, muscles stiffened and knuckles turned white.
Don't play now, Lina, you'll be dead!
Hehehe! Guess his ears are letting out smoke!!
Shut up!

Suddenly, his eyes widened and he muttered "shit!"
"Lina can you please give me your phone? I need to call Emily. My phone has a display issue and the battery's dead.Please?", he pouted. I reluctantly gave him the phone and he dialed Em's number and put it on loudspeaker mode.

"Hey bishhhhhh" she squealed.
"Um..hi Emily?"
"Hahaha! Are you practising mimicry nowadays? Tell me wassup?"
"Emily, this is Kygo...um...are you free? Like..can we talk?"
After a 10 second silence, Kygo spoke again
"Em?"
"Hey, hi..Kygo..um..er...how have you been?"
"Em, can I come to your place along with Lina for the sleepover?"
"Yeah..why not? Are you staying tonight?"
"What does a sleepover mean?"
"Yeah.....right..? Yeah okay sure..My parents are out of town so yeah, its fine if you both come over."

That's a lot of blushing, Em!
I pulled Kygo's hand down to my height and cooed- "Stop blushing, Em! I won't let you guys have a romantic night! Don't forget that I'll be coming too! I don't want to see Kygo kissing you with great passion!! Ooooooooohhh!!"
I burst out into laughter, ignoring Kygo's glare.

"Shut up, Lina! I'll kill you! Bye!" She yelled and hung up.

Kygo moved an inch closer to me and looked down with his signature 'victory smirk'.
"So its decided. I'm coming along with you."
"But Ky-"

Before I could say anything, he tossed my phone into the pool.
"What the–"
"Oops! Sorry flower! It was an accident"
"The duck, you psycho! I know you did that on purpose."
He started laughing, to my surprise.
" 'the duck', eh? The phone's autocorrect has gotten into your head for good! Anyway, Ive a meeting to attend with your father. Dont you dare move around without me. Understand? Ill be back by dusk." He said, shooting a dead glare in my eye.

"how many times have i told you not to throw your gun here and there? If Cheryl starts playing with it, there's going to be trouble, Lina. Dont make me say this agai-"

"Whatever, come. I'm leaving" I said mockingly, turning around to leave. 
As I crossed the porch, I saw Ruben standing there with a slight smile. He opened the door for me.

Sweet!
"Miss Moretti," he bowed.
"Nice to see you, Ruben!" I smiled and got into the car. Before coming to me,Kygo spoke something with Ruben in such a thick accent that I couldn't understand.

Got to learn the whole Italian language, baby girl!

I heard Kygo saying something, but everything was gibberish.
"Whaaaatt?" I yelled.
He pulled the earplugs out and grunted-
"For heaven's sake, be serious for once, Lina. You'll surely turn deaf one day. I was asking you to sit in the front with me."

I settled down and Kygo got in and played 'Pal' by Arijith Singh.
"Indian?" He smiled and revved the engine. Soon, we were on the main lane towards Em's house.
"Indian music feels like home, Kygo. You won't understand. It reminds me of my granny's back there. They are the best people. E.V.E.R."

Both of us chose to remain quiet after that. Soon, I was lost into the song and after a few minutes, left the world to enter my world of thoughts and dreams. Of course, I tried to sing but the language was a tongue twister. English and broken Italian are easier.

When I first told Emily that Lorenzo was Italian and mom was an Indian, her face lit up. Fancy how people like love stories and react to them so immediately.
Or maybe I'm a stone hearted girl.
That's when I nagged Ma to tell me their story and how it actually worked out between them.

Ma and Lorenzo met during an art festival in Berlin. Both of them were doing their masters there– Lorenzo did it in business while Ma did it in Genomics. There, I got her genes, and I love life sciences.
Ma actually bumped to Lorenzo and almost spilled her drink on his suit. They then started laughing and got introduced. They exchanged numbers and began to talk.

After several dates, Lorenzo finally proposed...

Great!

I still cannot believe that the person who loved Ma so much, actually abuses her everyday. They got married and settled in Italy. After Cheryl was born, Lorenzo met with a deadly road accident and escaped by inches. He lost his memory and that is when he listened to Greg and joined the mafia. Greg filled venom in his mind and trained him to such an extent that now he is one of the biggest businessmen and self made mafia kings in the world. The pressure that Lorenzo had in his work made him alcoholic. He turned into a monster and began abusing us, treating us like mere pieces of shit and nothing else.

Suddenly, I felt a warm touch on my hand. I tilted and angled my head to see a worried Kygo.

"You're crying, flower! is everything okay?"

when did i start crying?

"Nothing, Kygs. I just had to feeeeel this song!" He chuckled at how easily I came up with lies.

Oh, Kygo! I love you man! You're the best-est-essttt friend I ever had and I doubt having someone like you. Just put up with this devil until she dies...

The car stopped in front of Emily's driveway and I got out.

There, she ran up to me and pulled me into her teddy bear hug, which is a therapy for any stress in this world.

Sorry, people!! I couldn't publish these days.. *cleaning her specs* I'll update frequently from now on.
