Unnaturally Fated

CHAPTER 6

“I just want to clarify something Mister, but are pehaps…” She asked and the man nodded as an answer without even hearing her full question.

“I am, so that’s why I also live here.” The man said, confirming one of the conclusions that she had in her mind.

Kealan nodded, and smile embarrassingly, after hearing what the man said.

“Is that so?” She asked and the man nodded.

There! You shouldn’t had create things inside your head, now you know. She nag to herself inside her head.

I just want to take some precautions, is that bad? The other part of her brain reason out.

Kealan just stop nagging herself, when she saw the man looking at her like she had grown another head, making her laugh awkwardly, to hide her embarrassment.

“Uhm...” She clearing her throat.

“I’m sorry, I honestly thought you as a thief, that’s why…” She said embarrassed of what she acted and think.

“It is just, the grandparents told me, no one lived here.” She said giving her point. “I didn’t know that you are the helper’s son.”

The man was about, to cut Kealan to correct what he really is in the house, but Kealan spoke again.

“By the way, I think I haven’t told you my name last night, but my name is Kealan Valle, and its nice to meet you!” She introduced to herself.

“And I haven’t thank you for letting me to stay last night. Thank you and sorry again.” She added with an apologetic smile.

The man, huffed a deep breath, and smile. Maybe, I can tell her later. He thought while plastering a smile to Kealan.

“It’s alright, I understand I got your point.” He replied.

“Though, it is late for you to think about that to me.” The man said teasingly.

Kealan pouted, after agreeing with what the man is pointing out, but she didn’t really had any choice last night, and he seemed really nice, that she strangely didn’t even felt any danger with him.

“I know.” She agreed making the man smile.

“By the way Mister, What is your name?” She asked after a while.

“Just call me T.” The man replied.

“T, as in single letter T,” she ask for clarification, “or T.I?”

The man smiled and replied, “just a single letter T.”

Kealan nodded with a smile and said, “Okay, T.”

“Better than Mister.” T said, “calling me Mister makes me sound I’m old.”

T smiled, and so Kealan. Again Kealan mesmerize by T’s smile as its emphasize his Ryan Reynolds looks more.

And did I haven’t told you that Ryan Reynold is her crush when it comes to Hollywood actors? And seeing T, made her feels like seeing her Hollywood crush in person, though it just a look a like, but it is okay.

“I bought some take outs, do you want to join me?” She offered, after her short day dream.

“Sorry but I have to decline. Its not that I don’t want but just have something I need to do.” He politely decline.

Kealan, understandingly nod, smiling and replied. “Okay.”

After that short conversation, T told her to go on, which she did, but after opening the door she can’t help but to look back, but she didn’t saw T to where he was standing.

“He disappeared really fast.” She uttered before proceeding to enter the house.

--

Night came and the rain pouring really hard agaid, and the only thing she can here is the sound of the pouring rain and the thunder.

She heard from the convenience store where she both some of her stuff awhile ago that, there has storm coming, that’s why the rain is keep on pouring heavily.

Kealan is busy fixing her things to her cabinet when she heard a loud bang coming from the outside of her room.

She set her things aside first, before went to the her room door.

She was just a few steps from her room door, when she heard another bang again, and the next thing happen is the power went out all of a sudden.

She curse under her breath because of that because she can’t see anything now.

She suddenly wonder if T didn’t came back, after he left this afternoon.

“Where did I place my phone again?” She uttered, as she turn to where her things is.

Luckily her phone was just place on her bed, that’s why she is able to find it easily.

The bang continues from the outside of her room and seems like coming from the living room, she hurriedly turned off her cellphone flashlight, and went to the living room.

“T?” She tried to call to T, but she receive no response.

She slowly went towards to the living room, when she felt something passed by behind her, making her look back to light the place behind her, but she saw nothing.

“T?” She tried to call for the second time, but the sounds of the pouring rain only answered her.

Then again, another sound of falling glass coming from the living room again took her attention.

While pacing towards the living room, she is stopping her mind to create any scenes that can definitely made her scare more, because she already is, she is just taking all the courage she has to check what was bangs, she heard, just incase something is happening, even though she keeps on getting a goosebumps and the cold weather is making it more worst.

She used her phone flashlight to check the what fell on the floor, and saw a glass sports car figurine on the floor.

She sigh with a relief seeing that it did not break, but the figurine is almost under the sofa.

She hurriedly placed her phone on the floor, and bend to the floor to take the said figurine, but when she already held the figurine, a while small paw coming under the sofa, touch her hand.

Kealan, panicky got up as the scary imagination comes through her in an instant, and was about to run towards her room when she heard a cat meowing.

The cat meows continues, again making her stop from her tracks.

She slowly took pace back to where the meowing sound coming from with her trembling legs, and slowly lift the sofa after, but nothing came out, making her brows frowned.

With all of her might, she squat and lift the soft slightly, only to be greeted by a furry ash kitten that looks like a ball because of its small size, and her fear suddenly change into happiness seeing the little friend looking at her with its innocent eyes, while giving her a meow.

“Hello little one. What are you doing there?” She said asking the cat with a smile, and gently took out the cat under the sofa after.

The cat meow again, and rub its face to her while purring and purr as she took it to her arms.

“How long have you been there?” The asked to the cat in a tiny voice.

Again, the cat answered her with a meow, like it understands her.

“You scared me you know what? But because your adorable you are forgiven.” She said to the cat while smiling.

The cat meows, again making her chuckle.

This little thing really did scared me, and I just notice, after entering this house I keep on being surprised. She though, as she started to go to her room with the cat in her arms.
