Planning the coincidence
1269 Words
"Exactly. It was all your fault" George spat. "Just because we wanted to try a few drinks and cigarette, you disowned us?! What on earth were you thinking?! We were kids man!" he groaned.
"What happened was a mistake. I wasn't in right senses that day. I tried, a lot after you went away, but I couldn't find you" he said.
"Can you hear yourself?! We went through five years of hell, just because you weren't in your right senses?! Ridiculous!!" George stood up.
"Done. You're done here, never come back" he pointed to the door. "George. No, mother isn't well, it's not her fault" said Thomas, standing up.
"What father did isn't right, I know, but it doesn't matter anymore. Let's go see our mother" said Thomas.
"Thank you Thomas" Lucas smiled. "You've become very successful, my sons, both of you" he smiled. George scoffed.
"Alright. Now move" he said. "We'll come this weekend" George said and opened the door.
Lucas hugged Thomas, who stood motionless and then turned to hug George. "No! Stay back" he growled and Lucas looked down.
"Coffee sir" came in Ms. Hall. "Thank you, keep it on the table" Thomas said. She did as told and walked out.
"Father, would you like to have coffee?" asked Thomas. "Thomas! Father was just leaving. Maybe next time" spat George.
Lucas nodded, feeling a pang at heart and walked out. "I can't believe you Thomas!" roared George.
"Why did you let him in?!" he asked, pacing across the room. "George we're old enough, we should leave all this behind" he said.
"Right! I've seen you struggling Thomas. You worked your ass off, day in and day out just to get me a blanket for the nights. Just to get us shelter. We're here because of you" his voice died down.
"Geroge, you have worked equally hard" Thomas said. "You think I don't know that you worked in that small cafe early in the mornings? Just to get me a pillow?" he chuckled.
"You knew?" he asked and Thomas smiled while nodding. "Thomas, there's something you need to know" said George and paced up and down the room.
"What is it George?" he asked. "I.. I'm sorry I didn't tell you before, I didn't know how you'd react. I'm sorry Thomas" he said and Thomas smiled.
"George, what's the matter?" he asked. "I.. I'm seeing a g..girl" he said and Thomas nodded. "I know" he said. "You do?" George stopped.
"Gwen, isn't it?" he asked and George grinned. "Y..Yeah" he said. "That's the one you went away with, that night" said Thomas and George nodded.
"You always know everything I want to hide" George chuckled. "Yeah. You can't hide much" Thomas chuckled. "I did, a very good one indeed" he smirked.
"What?" Thomas asked, frowning. "Not what, it's who" said George as he sat down.
"Who?" he stressed. "The mystery girl you're desperately trying to find out" he smirked as Thomas choked on the coffee.
"Calm down Thomas" George chuckled. "Who are you talking about?" he asked, placing the coffee on the table.
"The drunk girl from the bar" he smirked. Thomas gasped. "It was a plan, wasn't it? So that you could escape with that girl of yours!" said Thomas.
"And.. It's the same person who you met that evening. Mr. Jason Bourne" George laughed again as Thomas's jaw dropped open.
"She.. How is that.." Thomas was shaking his head. "She dressed up as a man because she wanted to meet me. Deliver a message" he smirked.
"Who is she?" Thomas asked. "If I disclose her identity, will you allow me to marry Gwen?" he asked.
"Very well, but I have to meet Gwen first" he said and George grinned. "I knew it" he chuckled. "So who is she?" he asked again.
"Eager, are we?" chuckled George. "George" growled Thomas and he smiled. "She's Gwen's friend. They share the apartment" he said and Thomas nodded.
"Why don't you fix a meeting in the evening? I'll get to meet Gwen" Thomas said. "Sure, Aria won't come along by the way. It's Gwen you want to meet, isn't it?" George pushed.
"Both of them are coming, otherwise I'm not meeting your darling girl" Thomas said and George nodded, smirking.
"I don't want you to tell her that I told you, yeah?" George asked. "Sure. It'll look like a coincidence" smirked Thomas. They drank their coffee and chuckled again.
"Sure, come on in" said George, leading Aria and Gwen into the house. "How do you do?" she smirked at the belly man, poor security guard.
"Old man, it's me. Jason Bourne" she winked and he gasped. She chuckled before hurrying away, not far behind George and Gwen.
"You sure I'm going to be okay?" Gwen asked. "Yes, he isn't here. He's not going to come until later. Relax now" he said and both of them smiled.
"Hello sir" she beamed at Henry. "Do call me Henry" he said and she smiled. "Aria Williams" she offered him her hand.
"You're the same girl, aren't you?" he chuckled as she nodded. They sat down and talked for a long time. Aria looked at the juice with content.
She smiled, she was going to drink it today. "Aria, do you mind going to the room and getting my phone, please" George asked and she nodded.
"Oh and it's in Thomas's room" he added making her halt. "He'll get home late, go on now" he said and walked Gwen to the garden.
Aria skipped along and hummed as she reached his room. Her heart was beating fast and she placed a hand over it.
"He's not here, you dumb heart" she chuckled as she entered. She looked at the mobile and picked it up. She turned to go but only to find Thomas locking the door.
She let out a small yelp, dropping the phone. Her breathing wasn't normal at all. She slowly picked up the phone and moved towards the door, with him standing against the door.
"I.. I need to g..give this to.. G..George" she stuttered and scolded herself. Be strong, lady!
"Excuse me" she said and he smirked. Her self confidence which was a river had now become a trickle.
"I was very pleased to find you in the room when I woke up" he said, sarcasm dripping and moved away.
She gulped before taking a step towards the door. "I have to go" she managed just fine. His legs moved forward and she stumbled backwards quickly.
"M..Mr. King" she stuttered and looked behind at the small mahagony table with which she collided. He was right in front of her when she looked back to him.
She gasped and fell onto the table, which rested against the wall. Her back was pressed to the wall, her legs touching the ground while she sat on the table just enough space for her, breathing sharply.

Yes, you must have seen me a while ago, when you were working, gardener" she spat.
He laughed heartily and she scowled. "Aria" hissed Gwen, nudging her. "Mr. King this is my friend, Aria Williams" she smiled.
"Aria Williams?" he asked and rose a brow, stressing on 'Williams'.
"My my, do forgive me Mr. King. You did look a gardener" she pretended and he was impressed.
"Indeed? Well, I see you haven't the keenest of eyes" he smiled wickedly and she was breathing fire.
