A Love Story

Chapter 3

Ian's P. O. V :

I went to the hospital only to meet my father. I wanted to ask him if he can come to my school tomorrow. But when I reached there I saw a beautiful girl wearing a loose t-shirt and jeans. She has black wavy hairs which suits her personality perfectly. And she somehow looks familiar. She was crying but her face was hidden between her knees. I guess she loose somebody close to her. 

"Hey dad," I said to my father but I was looking at the girl. I feel sorry for her. As she heard my voice she lifted her face. Oh My God. She is a Daisy. She looks so beautiful even when she's crying. It looks like she has been crying the whole day. I don't know why but I want her to be happy and cheerful like she is always at school. I can't see her like that. I guess it's just my instinct to comfort her or it's my hidden love for her. She looked at me through her teary eyes. The most beautiful eyes I've ever seen. The color of her eyes is black not too dark but it's also not light black. They are beautiful like always. I want to go to her, ask her what happened and tell her that no matter what I am with her. But I can't do it now, not in front of my father. It's not that I'm shy of my father it's just that I don't want him to know anything about my life. I don't hate him but I also don't like him. That's why I live alone at my house. I was so into my thoughts that I forgot why I came here. 

"Can I talk to you for a second dad," I asked him still looking at my sunflower. I saw how my father helped her to get up and make her sit on nearby chair. He is now talking with her about paper formalities and I am waiting for him. 

"Hey Ian, what comes on you today son," said my father happily, his voice sounded a little playful. He comes to me. "What brings you here?" He asked. 

"It's just that you have to come to my school tomorrow. Like if you want to come so you can. Our teacher wants to have a meeting with all parents." 

"Okay, I'll see." And then he walked away. 

Now that my father isn't here I walked towards the direction where Daisy is sitting. She's still crying. I don't know what happened to her. I sat beside her. She knew that someone just sat beside her but I think she don't want to react. So I sat there quietly watching her cry. It's been fifteen minutes she is continuously crying. I cant tolerate this now, so I placed my hand on her shoulder. Now that I got her attention I was gonna ask her what happened but the way she is looking at me I am guessing she is wondering who am I. So I introduced myself to her and niw I knew why is she like this. I feel sorry for her. I promised myself that I won't let anything happen  to her or hurt her. She doesn't know me but I know her her well. From two years I am observing her and I have feelings for her. She doesn't know this either. She doesn't want to go home so now we're on our way to my home. 

Daisy's P. O. V :

We're now on Ian's car on the way to his home. I was thinking about today how the fight took place between my parents and then their death and now I'm with a stranger on the way to his home. Although he doesn't seems to be a stranger to me which is strange. I have seen him somewhere. And I have also heard his name at school. I think I should ask him. 

"I think I have seen you at school." 

"Seriously, so you did noticed me huh." He laughed. 

"I didn't remember clearly then but I remembered now. You're always close to me like around me wherever I am. Aren't you?" 

"Yeah, I like to observe you." He smiled. His smile is lovely. Now I'm observing him. He has a symmetrical face. Perfect sea green eyes, shrap nose which is also perfect and beautiful lips. He looks just like a hero. Perfect body he has. I liked his personality and want to know more about him. I'm thankful to him that he is helping me through my toughest part of life. I'll always be thankful to him. 

"We are here," he said getting out of the car and coming toward my side. I just opened my seat belt and was opening the door but he bests me to this. He is sech a gentleman. Now that he is standing he totally looks like a model. He is slightly taller than me. He offers his hand which I gladly take. Now we are walking into a small but beautiful house. It's more like a cottage. As we entered the main gate in front me is a small living room. It's neat and clean. I guess he's a cleanliness freak. I laughed internally. 

"Have a seat. I be back with coffee seems like you need it. Umm, what would you like to have by the way. Black coffee or cold coffee." 

"Black coffee please. Thank you." I smiled at him. 

"I'll be back sunflower." He winked. 

This is the second time he called me sunflower. It's not that I'm his friend or girlfriend that he is giving me nickname already. I mean the idea of being his girlfriend seens to be attractive but what if he already has. This thought made me sad. The next thought made me even sadder. He will leave me tomorrow on my own. Even if he didn't I have to go. I can't stay here forever. I have to learn to live alone. To live without my parents. Remembering of my parents my heart clutched inside my chest. I hurts so much. 

"You're coffee is here madam." He said to me in a cheerful voice. 

"Thankyou." I tried to give him a smile but the totally failed. 

"Hey, don't be sad sunflower." He came closer to me as his placed the tray on the table. He was gonna hug me but I stopped him. 

"Don't comfort me Ian." 

"But I want to." 

"Why? Who am I to you?"

"You're my sunflower." He said sadly. 

"Look Ian. Thankyou for everything you did to me today. I'll be forever grateful. But I have to live on my own from tomorrow when you'll leave me. And I dont want..." He closed my mouth with his one hand. And the other hand is now cupping my cheek. He remove the tear that are now flowing like a river with his thumb. 

"Don't you ever think of me leaving you. Okay." He sounded hurt. But why? I removed his hand from my mouth and was gonna ask him why but before I did that, he said, 

"And now don't ask why. You'll know it later. For now know this that (moves closer) I'm never (moves more closer) leaving you." His lips are only inches away from mine. I don't know what is happening but I know that I don't want to pull back. Deep down in my heart I too want this to happen. His warm breath is fanning my cheeks. His eyes are staring into mine like he is trying to figure out what I want. His eyes are going to my lips and then back to my eyes then back to my lips. And now slowly he is closing the distance. My stomach is doing summersault. My eyes and slowly closing on their own. But suddenly he pulls away. Arghhhh you bloody bastard. 

"Coffee is getting cold. You should drink it. I'm going yo make dinner." He stood up and went to the kitchen. 

Oh my God what was going on? I'm so embarrassed. My cheeks are red like tomato. Why did he pull away? Does I'm looking that bad. I should fresh up. I drink my coffee first and then started walking towards kitchen to ask him where's the washroom. But I stopped near the door when I heard him talking on his phone. 

"Yeah, I know I should've told. I'm sorry." 

.. 

"No I didn't kiss her."

..

"Hmm okay. Bye" He ended the call. 

So I was thinking right. He has a girlfriend.
