Zain, couldn’t stop smiling after the cute moment he just experienced, he realised she was still flustered by his unexpected movement but he was more happy because her reaction shows he has an effect on her and seeing it up close was enough satisfaction for him to go on with his day, his phone beeped and he checked his screen to see it was the principal.
Just as he was about to speak about him leading he got into a criscross of words with belina “ you can go first” he said “thank you’’she said but she actually wanted to say more but got awkward “ you’re welcome, I have to go now i think I’m needed in the principals office” he said before giving bel and lei a smile and left with Anthony.
Okay!! Oh my gosh ! What just happened bel?! " Leilah silently screamed “ I don’t know what you’re talking about lei , replied bel , don’t do that “ she said as leilah gave her the teasing look if she’s trying to get words out of her.
Why isn’t this romance getting started?!, leilah teased , “ C’mon lei This is not a romance starts, and how are you not finding anyone to like ?, bellina asked in realisation that her sister as never really being crazy or crushed on anyone before “ maybe I have not really found interest in anyone’ leilah replied the truth is she actually has no thoughts of being in real life romantic relationship and had always being the one rooting for anyone “ heard of coaches don’t play?, giving a wink , well that doesn’t apply to you because I know you need experience and expertise to become a coach. The school bell rang for the next class and the two girls went back to the class .
Bellina sitting on the bear couch staring off into the garden as she gaze out the window, struck by the serene beauty of the garden that stretches out ,Vibrant colors dot the landscape, with lush green foliage providing a lively backdrop. Perfectly manicured flowerbeds burst with an array of blooms - delicate pale pink roses, bold crimson peonies, and fragrant purple lavender swaying , inviting one to step outside and bask in the beauty surrounding it. A small bubbling fountain stands as the centerpiece, its soothing sounds adding to the calming ambiance. And the blue orchid glass tree giving off a rare beauty to behold as the sunlight casting its ray making the flower seem like a blue fluorescent light
The overall impression is one of serene harmony - a beautifully balanced garden that seems to exist in its own tranquil world, separate from the bustle of everyday life. It's the kind of place that inspires one to slow down, breathe deeply, and simply soak in the beauty of nature.“so beautiful!! "She felt a stream of gratitude steam through her chest,she knew her parents were wealthy but never thought the house could be more heavenly than what she had imagined.
She kept writing her thoughts of the garden even tho it felt useless but she was pretending to be a poet writing out a poetry about a beautiful garden like the one facing her right now, she laughed at the thought of her being a poet , she doesn’t feel like there’s any poetry talent in there out of her many abilities her mind wandered off to her studies she felt so satisfied that all her grades were good and any university would not turn it down, she had always worked things out on her own not needing help from her wealthy family she wanted to know how it feels to work hard to get what she wants,wandering off to the thoughts of zain , her mind was clouded she didn’t think she’d be able to pull of being in a relationship with a guy as the memories of that cold night flashed through her mind she suddenly shievered , just then the lights went off, she panicked as everywhere was dark except for the flowers giving a little illusion of light she held her chest and struggled to grab her purse which was under an invisible lock under the reading table, pressing the button open she brought out the purse and took out the benzodiazepines container which she had gotten from a local pharmacy .
She had gone sightseeing with her sister in Florence and that night she missed the bus to Tuscany and had hidden herself after a fight with her sister when she got home, kept the secret to herself it was her trauma to deal with. She scurried back to the bear couch and curled up ,taking her diary she scribbled her thoughts and wrote down her feelings until she saw tear drops on the page which wet the inks , she dabbed the hem of her cloth on the page to prevent the ink spread,with a sigh she heard the door creak opened, she quickly hid the drug into her sleeve and sat on the diary and pretended to be asleep, oh there she is ” Amelia sighed she had gone to look for her when she wasn’t in her room to get her to introduce to the Delcrov’s ,taking the shawl from the coat stand and walk towards her sleeping beauty she covered her and placed a kiss on her forehead before heading out, hearing the footsteps fade and the door closed she took a long breath and smiled at the gesture she loves her mum so much and each time it feels so sureal.
Back at the fire place, Robert was entertaining his friend guest Dorian Delcrov . When the Delcrov had arrived, leilah had first thought it was Adams their butler who had been gone for two months according to what she was told , the last time she had seen the man was eight years ago,but to her surprise it was the Delcrov’s and what made it a shocking suprise was seeing Zain and his elder brother Zeke , she had panicked excitement as she wanted to inform bel of their arrival until her mum returned to tell them bel was asleep.
Zain wanted to see her , that was the reason he had followed his father and his elder brother who had just arrived the day before.
Leillah offered to take Zain on a house tour and when they had gotten to the gallery room, he was intrigued by the pictures and paintings most especially Bellina’s . He got lost in his thoughts and didn’t hear when Leilah had excused herself when she heard the butler’s voice
He couldn’t stop thinking about the first time he saw her at Kensighton’s office , he was in foul mood that day and when he glanced at her only to see her give him a cold blank stare , he was amused seeing her cold demeanour,bringing himself back to reality he decided to leave the room to check out the other room only to find the twin sister tour guide was nowhere to be found , he walked aimlessly looking at the study room which seems to belong to Mr Carmichael he saw the garden which got him so intrigued until he saw the libary view from where he stood and decided to go into the libary finding the door he entered and bumped into her “ hey , Bellina had a shocked expression on her face , what are you doing here? She asked “ Came with my father and brother, he replied looking at her she looked a little bit distressed not from the shock of seeing him but he kept his cool
Ohh Dad mentioned that and I had no idea it was going to be your family ”she said bumping into him she had inhaled his rich cologne which smelt so sooting and more manly just like when he had helped her up her chair disaster, a blush crept up her face at the thought,Zain had caught it and he turned back to smile before putting on a straight face “ i see you love it here and your house is amazing didn’t know you lived in a paradise no wonder I always thought you might be a celestial angel’ he said with a straight face before giving her a smile “ don’t be ridiculous Zain, i wanted to get some coffee, I’ll be right back , she said before dashing out of the door without waiting for a reply, “ cute, he smiled she looked like she just ran away from him and he found it amusing his face beamed with smile happy he got to see her and she looked so beautiful in her sun dress which kind of had a little cleavage which got him, she had a pretty good amount of front side with a very tiny waist and a wide hips and a good amount of ass she looked just perfect, coughing to stop himself from the pervert thoughts he sat on the couch opposite the reading tables before facing a big bear couch he smiled knowing that must be her favourite place to seat , he stood up to get a better look of the beautiful garden when his eyes caught the book that was opened and the writings looked a little bit big and was not in line like it was written in haste , going close he read the content before standing away with a bit of shock , he looked towards the door , it was her diary and reading the content on the page his guess was right when he had sense the distress but he couldn’t stop thinking of what could have caused her to have a panick attack and the inked area looked like she had cried . He wanted to know more but had to respect her privacy. His mind wandered off until he heard the door closed , bellina came back with two coffee cup and offered him one “ thank you, the atmosphere was a bit akward , i love the view , he said before siping his coffee “ yeah it’s soothing, she replied with a forced smile,they both turned when the door opened leilah came in along with Adams and Rigel followed
