Emmly had her solid reasons for never wanting to get involved with Aarib. He belonged to a world that had only ever brought her pain. But he was also the one she needed to protect but from a distance. She had long ago built her boundaries with quiet precision. She made sure that she never crossed that boundary. To protect him and to stop the past from getting repeated.
And she wanted to keep it that way.
But fate had its own way of dealing with things, making it so ridiculously funny that even laugh won't come out.
It all changed with one clumsy mistake-one stupid, fleeting accident. Her mind wasn't on where she walked. She didn't hold the cup with attention and before she could blink, a stream of scalding coffee had found its way onto a perfectly pressed white shirt.
His shirt.
Aarib.
She stammered an apology, cheeks flushed with embarrassment, already prepared to never see him again after that brief disaster. But her dignity and pride and Aarib's rudeness ruined everything.
Even though things didn't end the way Emmly want them to. But she hoped she could still maintain the distance, and let things go back to the way they were. But Aarib?
Aarib never believed in endings.
He believed in curiosity. In chasing the sparks. Finding a spark that could lead him to his destination.
And unfortunately for Emmly, she had just ignited one.
