“You are not going anywhere. Just do what I said”
Andrew Jones shouted at his daughter, Zara who stood in the middle of the living room staring at him with agony.Meredith her mother and Jenna her elder sister stood either side of her holding her shoulders hoping to give her strength to withstand Andrew’s anger.Zara struggled a bit and stepped forward wiping her tears and raised her head high. She should fight for her future and she’s determined to talk to her father“I will not do as you wish. This is my decision I am going to abroad”Andrew fumed in anger and wanted to slap her but held back“You are talking back huh?”Andrew’s voice was cold and stern. Zara shivered but still didn’t back down“I am not talking back at you dad. I am talking about my future. Please let me go”She pleaded him expecting him to agree to her request but didn’t expect him to slap her harshly.“Ahhhh”Zara screamed waking up from her sleep and touched her cheek.“Again!”Selina Benson, Zara’s friend barged into her room anxiously. Zara scratched her neck awkwardly staring at her friend who stood at the door shooting daggers at her. She got down the bed and hugged Selina before going to the bathroom to wash her face.Looking at her reflection in the mirror Zara sighed heavily before brushing her teeth. She dreamt about her fight with her dad which happened a year and half ago. Her dad didn’t slap her in reality but he always slapped her in her dreams.After five minutes she came out of the bathroom to see Selina staring at her without blinking.“I am fine Selina, please get ready for work”Zara held Selina’s shoulders and turned her around sending her out of her room.“It’s been more than a year Zara, why are you still dreaming about that”At first Selina thought she was having nightmares but later she got used to her screams once in a while because she knew she dreamt about her dad slapping her.“I would be happy if I knew the answer”Zara shrugged her shoulders and opened her closet to choose the dress for the day.“Stop thinking about useless things, you will feel better”Selina hugged Zara and caressed her hair softly. Zara smiled and nodded gesturing her to get ready. Selina rolled her eyes and left the room.Staring at her back Zara gave a gentle smile. She is lucky to have Selina. Selina is three years older than her and took care of her when she came to study in this country a half and year ago. Selina is her senior in middle school who came to this country for her further studies just like her.Selina supported her decision to continue her studies in foreign country. She even helped her in getting part time jobs. Selina always treats her like her little sister.“What did you cook for breakfast?”Zara ran down the stairs hurriedly holding her growling stomach .“Pancakes”Selina set the plates on the dining table and went to bring maple syrup.“Ew..I want omelette” said Zara sulking.“It’s eight already. I should leave for work”Selina served the food into the plates and ordered Zara to finish her breakfast.“Take care, call me if you need anything”After breakfast Selina packed her bag and stood at the door putting on her coat. Zara nodded like a good kid and spoke with a mocking voice“Okay mommy”Selina pinched Zara’s cheeks before leaving. Selina always nags Zara like her mother so Zara would call her mommy from time to time.Zara fought with her father to study in abroad. Finally her wish came true and here she is happily working part time jobs for her expenses and study in her free time. She only have two college working days in a week that is Wednesday and Friday.She took a Business course as she hates Software. Selina helped her to get two decent part time jobs and she should go to work now. After packing her bags Zara went to the café she is working by her car.“Hello gorgeous”Greeted the café manager as soon as she stepped in. Zara smiled at him and started working. She just needs to be in the counter to take the orders. This is very easy but standing continuously for five hours is difficult but she didn’t have a choice.Morning from nine to two she would work at café and evening from four to eight she would work at supermarket. Two to four is her break time, she would call her family and friends while having lunch.“Hey mom, How are you?”She called her mom while eating her lunch she cooked after coming back.“I am fine Zara, How are you?”Meredith is so happy to hear her daughter’s voice. She really missed her mischievous daughter. She would always wander in the house with her giggles. If anyone can put her stubborn husband in his place, it’s definitely her younger daughter Zara.“I am perfect mom, Where is dad?”Zara holding her spoon tightly. He didn’t talk to her for months. Precisely after she fought with him for her career.“He is reading book”Meredith eyed at her husband who is listening to their conversation. Zara lowered her head sadly and stirred the contents in the bowl. When can her father talk to her willingly.Every time it’s her who would call her dad but he only asks her to take care before passing the phone to her mother.“Mom tell dad I will come back soon and also tell him that I remember my promise” said Zara before hanging up.“Why are you so stubborn Andrew?” scolded Meredith glaring at her husband.“She is living alone miles away from us, can’t you be nice to her?” said Meredith hands on her hips.“She asked for it, didn’t she? It’s her decision to live alone miles away from us” said Andrew opening his book to read.“Really!! Then why are you listening to our every conversation? Why are you peeking at her pictures every day in my phone?”Meredith criticised him mockingly. Andrew didn’t respond but continued reading ignoring his wife. Meredith mumbled something before leaving her husband alone in the living room.Andrew sighed after Meredith went into the kitchen. He removed his glasses and watched Zara’s photo on the wall when she was one year old. He smiled looking at his cute daughter. He didn’t want her to work hard when she can have everything.He is angry because she chose to be alone when she can live with her family. He is afraid that she would leave them behind when she gets used to the life in foreign country. So, he took a promise from her as he knows she never goes back on her words.Zara collapsed on the bed after working for the whole day. Selina works till nine. She is working as VFX designer in a renowned company. Recently they got a new project so Selina is working overtime. After showering Zara cooked simple meal listening to her favourite songs.“Oh my god Zara!!! Can you please decrease the volume?” Selina shouted entering the house but Zara rolled her eyes and increased the volume winking at Selina. Selina shouted again but Zara swirled around holding the spatula singing the song. “I would kill that whole group, you are crazy about them and you are making our home a living hell every night” Selina scolded angrily making Zara frown. “Do not speak about them like that. If you bad mouth them you bad mouth me” said Zara seriously.Selina shook her head in defeat before retreating to her room. Zara loves LTW group a lot. She never tolerates anyone who talks bad about them. Selina is not interested in songs she only likes melodies but after meeting Z
Far away from Zara’s home, the whole stadium screamed shaking everyone. The people jumped and started singing songs together with their idols. The magic is in the air with captured all the souls.“Rock it everybody” Sebastian Wild shouted and whole stadium started screaming loud. Lit The World(LTW) is having a concert for two days from five to eight in the evening where Zara is living but it’s a bit far to her home. While dancing Sebastian spotted an old lady who is shouting his name in the crowd near the stage. When she saw him staring at her, she got excited and blew him kisses in the air.Sebastian smiled and jumped from the stage to the ground. “Sebasty” Everyone shouted out loud, Sebasty is his nickname from fans and his bandmates. Without waiting for bodyguards he ran to the old lady climbing the railings. Security guards and his bodyguards almost had a heart attack to see him run to the fans. They tried to stop him but he was faster. His band mates Fredrick Smith,
After hanging up the call Zara went to her room, took her cute small handbag and put on her favourite white beanie fur knitted cap as it’s cold outside. She put on her shoes and walked to the restaurant. When she saw Seth at the counter who she met after six months she squealed jumping happily.Seth and Selina are best friends they both came to this country three years ago. They worked in this restaurant as part timers. After graduation they both got jobs in the same company but Seth moved to another city as his company assigned transferred him to another branch.He also helped her to buy her necessities and medicines when she is in need. She missed him so much and is shocked to see him work in this restaurant. “What are you doing here Seth?” Zara asked Seth smiling widely.“I thought to surprise you in the weekend but you got me” Seth held her fur ball on the top of her beanie and pinched her nose lovingly. “Why are you here?” He got a well paid job and why is he working i
Seth is in the restroom with a bag which has waiter uniform waiting for Zara as she texted him. He waited for five minutes when he spotted someone with a mask and hoodie entering the restroom he handed him the dress“She told you to change into this as fast as you could and meet her at the counter”Sebastian took the bag and Seth left the restroom. When Lucien saw Seth he recognized him as the man who talked with Zara earlier at the counter. He thought to help Sebasty so he distracted the bodyguards by talking about Sebastian’s protocol.Sebastian changed in two minutes and put his clothes in the bag. He is feeling adventurous now. He always wanted to escape from his bodyguards now he will thank that silly girl if he succeeded.He put on the waiter’s cap and popped his head to see his bodyguards engaged with Lucien. He knows Lucien did this for him. He walked out swiftly and bodyguards thought it’s the waiter.Sebastian walked towards the counter to see the girl waiting for him and wh
When Zara saw him staring at her without blinking she thought she made a mistake and lowered her head in disappointment“I will send you back”After saying that she stood up turning around to walk but Sebastian grabbed her hand stopping her. His touch sent shivers to her spine making her inhale sharply.“I want to have my time”Zara faced him smiling brightly and sat beside him wriggling her hand from his grip because she’s a mess with his touch.“What do you want to do?”She asked him excitedly but soon realized something and hit her head seeing the food package in her hand.“Oh god!! I am dead”She muttered cursing herself for forgetting about Selina.“Bash!! Can you walk? My home is just five minutes walk from here. I have to give this package to my friend”Zara waved the package in her hand. Sebastian chuckled at her cute expression and agreed to walk with her.They started walking side by side for sometime but Zara stopped at some point making him stop in his tracks.“What happen
He said nothing but stood there in silence letting the sea breezes hit his face. He is just wondering how can this little girl know what he neededHe suddenly thought that she might be his match but soon erased that thought, such a pure girl cannot come into his hectic life.There is something special about her. He remembered seeing her first time at the restaurant earlier. He smiled at her dressing sense because she is not a kid by her body figure but she put on a white ball cap which looked like a snowball.She wore loose peach pyjamas with flip-flops and a shawl on her shoulders with loose brunette hair dropping on her shoulders passing her waist. She is talking excitedly with the person standing at the counter.Now she put on a long coat giving him fur scarf because shawl is very thin. She looked cute with pouty pink little lips. He wanted to touch her long fingers when she fiddled with them to talk with him. Bash? She even named him Bash as if she owns him.He didn’t lack girls i
After climbing the top of the rocks they finally saw the beauty of the mini forest under the moon light. They walked deeper and settled on the ground watching the city with lights and sky with full of stars.They were silent the whole time and it’s half past one. Zara wrapped her arms around her knees and closed her eyes enjoying the serenity while Sebastian kept staring at Zara.He couldn’t take his eyes of her no matter what. She looked fucking gorgeous under the moonlight. He travelled his eyes from her closed eyes to her smiling lips. His throat felt dry and he licked his dry lips. His lips itched to kiss her jawline.Zara can feel his gaze on her and she felt butterflies in her stomach. Whenever she watches his videos she always felt butterflies in her tummy but now the feeling is intense.She didn’t understand whether she is shivering from the cold outside or from his heated gaze on her. She waited for ten minutes hoping that he would look forward and enjoy the view but his inte
Sebastian’s heart shook when he saw her crying. He slowly sat up on the ground and hugged her from behind letting her lean on him. He let her cry caressing her hair softly.Zara is confused and so mad at herself for letting her carry away by her desire and with her personality she knew she paid a lot by doing this with him.After an hour they would part ways and how can she do something like this? Sebastian guessed her thoughts and felt guilty. He lost his senses too. He shouldn’t have hurt her. He looked at her shaking shoulders and tightened his hands around her and placed a lingering kiss on her smooth back.He said nothing and continued to hug her. After some time she got up and dressed fully. He did the same and stood up facing her. She didn’t lift her face but stood looking at the ground.He took a deep breath and stepped forward entering her breathing zone. He held her face and kissed her forehead wiping her tears with his thumb.She didn’t raise her head to look into his eyes
