NEXT MORNING
Leah was unable to take her mind away from Richard. She kept on thinking who is the new girl but have no answer. Several time she take a look at herself thinking which part he likes the most. She found her flawless beauty she never knew before. When she tried finding the best part in her today she got a lot of them. She was pretty she was confirming it to herself. And, then would investigate if the new girl Richard love is her?
She was happy and their was a gentle smile on her lips. She walked so smooth and her smile was a cherry blossom. She took out her files and began the drawing happily. **tututu-tututu** her phone ranged. “Hello,” said Leah
“Hello Leah I will be coming to pick you up today.” Isabella.
“But, why?” Leah.
“You see we have an appointment today.” Isabella.
“Appointment,” whispered Leah. How stupid I was to think of someone loving me, their is no such day meant to be for me. How could I possibly be so selfish. Her smile fades and her twinkle was lost.
“Hey!” Said Richard.
“Don’t you have other work then hey’s and hi’s.” Taunts Leah.
“Woahhh! Someone is in a bad mood today.” Richard pulls a chair and takes a seat.
Leah ignores him while Richard had a full focus on Leah. He remember how pretty he looked while he saw her yesterday after washing her face. The girl who doesn’t stalk him and is quite sarcastic from the day one. “Well would you like to have some coffee?” Asked Richard.
“I don’t drink.” Leah replied with the cold tone of her’s.
“But I’d do....” says Richard “be back.” He goes straight to the coffee machine making some coffee for himself and gets back to sit beside Leah. He took a sip looking at Leah focused on the drawing. “Uh uh you doing it wrong.” Richard puts the cup beside and stand behind Leah grabbing the mouse of computer. His chest was close to leah’s Head and his hand brushes her slim long fingers. His was very warm especially when near, “it’s done” realises Richard of the position he was standing in. He wanted to kiss Leah’s head in this situation.
Leah was all red. She was shy and an awkward atmosphere created around them. “Umm well,” says Richard. “This is how it’s done.”
“I will -I will remember.” Says Leah in a muted voice. Her heart was beating steadily. She looked at Richard and Richard look at her their eyes were blocked for a second and then they faced away so that they won’t be caught. Richard stood and left while Leah continue to draw.
Richard rushes towards the restroom. He closes the door and stands in front of the mirror. He had an unimaginable smile on his face “Leah” he whispered. He recalls that moment the position and he was quite happy. It reminds him something from the old day. ‘How can I trust someone casually,” “no Leah.” “You can’t head my brain.” His smile dropped but the place for Leah in his heart remained same. He went out of the washroom and sat at his place. The day was long, neither richard came to Leah for a talk nor Leah went to him for sketches. They completed their work and head out,
Isabella came to pick Leah and they both drove to the hospital.
“Hmm I see,” says doctor. “Thinks doesn’t seems too complicated, but the risk stays.” “We definitely don’t have a cure for this but we can actually delay it.” “Why don’t you try distracting yourself in happy moment then thinking about your health.”
“If it was t for the sake of appointment why would I even remember this sick illness.” Says Leah. “As if you will let me distract from it.” She stood up and left banging the door behind.
“I am so sorry doctors.” Said Isabella with her worried face and tearful eyes.
“It’s all ok, well,” said doctor. “You don’t need to come regularly.” “Just visit when you see she is getting better or worse.”
“Fine,”
“Well we have some new medictaion they are,”
“Oh my!” A voice came “who is that!” Said Richard.
“Richard you!” Leah was surprised to see him.
“I know I am the biggest surprise you might have seen,” Richard chuckles “but can you close your mouth or the fly will get in without knocking.”
“Not funny.” Smiled Leah.
“Anyways I should be surprised to see you here.” Richard questioned Leah.
“Oh really?” Leah pouts “why are you here?”
“Well this hospital is my property honey.” Says Richard.
“You must be kidding me?” Leah passed a side smile and totally ignored Richard.
“Now I see why ain’t you fallen for me yet,” says Richard. “You thought I am a poor person working at a silly comic studio lol.”
“Well yeah I do wonder why do you work there if you have so much money in your hand,” days Leah. “But you see, I will not fall for a man with money.”
“Oh really!” Said Richard. Laughing at Leah.
“Definitely,” said Leah “love is just about moment those precious moment with your partner, the moment that would never fade.” “Love is something which takes you out from past and throws you back from future and make you focus onto the living present.” “Cause love is a present.” “It’s a double coincidence of wants.” When one person heaven what other need and other have what on the one need.” “Love is walking together onto the night street.” “Love is doing naughty things together.” “If love was a business.” “You know I am better of with the comic art.”
Richard was just simply looking at Leah. She talks so highly of love yet being so low. She never mentioned her desire for her future partner she just have spdesires for a love story which is just living in the moments. How can be someone be so silly or maybe cute.”
“Leah!!.” Screamed Isabella walking towards Leah.
“Hi mom!” Leah smiles looking at her.
“Oh you found a boyfriend within a second that I disappear.” Said Isabella chuckling.
“Mom....” Leah stares at her mom with a slight blush.
“Just kidding honey,” said Isabella.
“No wonder youa re her mom,” said Richard. “She is very sarcastic as well.”
“Well don’t tell me you are Richard?” Said Isabella.
“How do you know that?” Asked Richard amazed by the fact.
“Well Leah mentioned you a lot of time you are indeed special.” Winked Isabella.
“Mom!!” Yelled Leah loudly blushing out from her face. “Let’s go.” She ordered.
“Sure miss,” Isabella accepted the order “she maybe likes you bye...”
