Aurora's Revenge

Cold Revenge

Aurora POV:

Unexpectedly, He reached out and pushed back a long strand of black hair that had escaped my braid. And tugged it behind my ear, his gaze intent. It was the second time, I was at the receiving end of the gesture today. But his was different, My heart was racing like ran a full track. I felt my knees weakening just from the long shared looks. There was no getting away from him. What is the heart to do when it already has a name imprinted on it. I missed him so much.

I saw the glint of delight in his eyes, he was mocking me!. He knew I still loved him and was toying with me. I swiped his hand away roughly and fixed him a cold dead stare. There was a smirk on his face. I've had enough of this, I won't be humiliated any further by him, I would let him have the taste of his own medicine.

"What do you think you are doing"

"You had a straying hair"

"That is not an excuse to touch me unsolicited, Keep your hands to yourself" I said coldly, allowing the anger to mask the helplessness I was feeling deep down.

"I'm sorry" he blurted out, apparently taken by surprise.

"Yeah, right. Excuse me" I said

He moved aside and allowed me to pass. I walked on to the mail slots, aware of his long, aching stare at my back. By the time finished the chore, he was already out the door and climbing into his Mercedes. I watched him drive away before I opened the door of the post office and went outside.

It was starting to rain. I would get wet, but I didn’t care. The odd, cold encounter made my head spin with pleasure, how I put him in his place and his appalled reaction. I would be reminisce it for quite a long time, It would be a kind thought to brighten any day.
