Her Nightmares

1| The Deal Is Canceled

Blue Jeans- Lana Del Rey

*****

Kristina Cohen

I woke up, stretched my body, and I had a good sleep, I think. But just then, I remember I have to meet a client at 8 sharp. Looking at my phone, it's 7:33. Oh God! How did I forget? How could I?

Yeah sure you were thinking about your good sleep, my inner Kristy telling me...

I smiled and said" Please be quiet, I don't have time for you right now."

And got up from the bed. I went to the bathroom , took a REALLY quick shower and brushed my teeth. I dried my hair and left them freely on my shoulders, and put on a white shirt and blue jeans, eh, you know I love you Lana Del Rey. I took my phone and keys, it was 7:42. Good, I can make it somehow.

I went out, locking my apartment and exiting the building. I made my way towards my car, just putting my key into my bag, when all of a sudden I hit a very muscular and firm body. I was a little confused at first but then I looked up just to come face to face with two beautiful dark blue eyes . Their beauty was mesmerizing. I have never seen anything like that before. A few seconds looking into his eyes, I finally managed to speak" Umm, I'm sorry, I didn't see you, I didn't mean to-"

He cut me off and I could see worry in his beautiful eyes," Are you alright? Did I hurt you? I'm so sorry!"

Okay this really made me shocked. I was expecting to be scolded as I bumped into him but here was he worrying about me and even apologizing? Yes of course I know he also bumped into me but still... Damn why am I thinking for so long? " Stupid Kristy." I facepalmed myself- in my mind.

I forced a smile and said" I'm fine, thank you, but no need to apologize, I was the one who bumped into you. I'm sorry as well."

He took a step away from me and answered with a warm smile" It was my fault, too. I'm glad you're fine. Anyway, I'm Timothy Evans, Mrs. Evans' grandson, I suppose if you live here you might know her. Nice to meet you, although our first meeting wasn't that nicest." He said with a grin.

Oh so this is why he is so nice! He is Beatrice's grandson. It seems all of the Evans are so kind and nice. I cannot describe her with words, that kind of old sweet woman which you will fall in love with, who always smiles and cooks delicious foods and gives you sweet cookies. Ever since I came here living on my own in my own apartment, she hadn't let me feel lonely even one moment. She is like my grandmother. But it was strange for me that in two years I haven't seen her grandson.

We shook hands and then I said" Well, thanks Timothy- Uh if that's okay for me to call you?"

"Of course!" He said.

"I'm glad I met you, too. I'm Kristina, well, Kristina Cohen to be exact. It's strange that we haven't met before, since I've been living here for two years." I continued.

He nodded knowingly," About that, I was living with my sister in France these two years. Gran'ma would visit us from time to time but it's the first time I've come here after so long. I'm gonna stay here now, I mean in the States but in another place."

" Guess I have to say welcome to you now? Anyway, I should be jealous of you for having such a kind and sweet granny. Take care of her!"

Just then, I remembered my meeting. Why can't you shut up for once Kristy? Your mouth must always be talking! Panicked and frustrated, I took my phone and looked at the time. Oh God! It was 7:49. I had barely 10 minutes to go to the company!

Timothy asked," Is everything alright?"

" Oh no nothing is alright! Uh sorry! I have a meeting in 10 minutes and I'm going to be late. I better hurry! See you later!" I didn't let him say anything before I ran to my car.
