NICHOLAS ~ FLASHBACK ~"Hey, Nick," I hear a voice calling my name from behind. Without looking at the person, I recognised her from her voice. It is Claudia. I turn around, halting on my way and regarding her with a look of question. I find a smile on her lips but I smell nervousness from her. Along with that, I can see the waves of restlessness leaving her body. But what is she nervous about? Somehow I can guess the reason because her liking towards me is quite visible to me. Many cannot notice that liking and those emotions in her eyes when she looks at me but I can because I have been given that power, the ability to hear and see through people. But I wish this would not be happening. Because I do not want to tolerate the same thing once again. "Good morning, Ms Hudgens." I bow a bit, passing her a polite smile. "Morning, Nick and please call me Claudia or Dia as I said earlier. When are you going to notice that, come on? When you call me 'Ms Hudgens ', I feel like an old w
JULIEThankfully yesterday evening my cousins told me that Ms Hudgens had given us the assignment to take this morning. I have prepared that. I was saved from being scolded. But I hope she does not find any other excuse to scold me again. Can people like Ms Hudgens be happy in anything? Well, I do not think so. Along with this, I would also like to share an important thing with her today. About her hatred towards me. By the way, I am wondering whether it is hatred or not. I want those reasons to come out, but not hatred and jealousy. If this happens, I do not know how Nick will deal with it. I get ready in a white turtleneck and a brown coat over it. I choose a plain brown pencil skirt under it which hugs my hips and black stockings for my legs along with black boots. As I am ready with a bit of makeup, I go downstairs and find my dad waiting for me like usual. I go and paste a morning kiss on his cheek. He smiles and wishes me back before we sit for breakfast. After that, he
Vote for the story!! ***JULIE"Um... Ms Hudgens," I call out her surname and she turns to me, halting her hands on the bag. "What?" She snaps harshly but that does not affect me. I kind of expected that. But who sounds disrespectful right now? "I just wanted to seek out something. Because I think you're unreasonably disappointed in me, I just want to know that." I shrug before I hold my hands behind me. She narrows her eyes to slit before she grits out, "Oh, really? Or what? What if I didn't tell you? Would you beat me as you did to Mr Fransisco, hm?" What? Did I hear her correct or—"What? Why do you make an innocent face now? You asked your father to send some goons and animals to beat Mr Fransisco because you couldn't bear the reality that day, right? But if you think you can shut my mouth like that, then you are—""What? I Didn't send anyone, what are you talking about?" I am flummoxed right now. I cannot even link the matters to make a chain of an answer. "Like I'd believe
JULIEIt does not hurt if I say that staying away from Nick cost me dearly because staying away from him is really a difficult task. I came home only after the classes were over. He offered to drop me home in his car but I told him that I would go home with Jeremy and Blue which was also a lie. I did not even come home with Jeremy and Blue because I knew I would be drowning in tears of pain and distance from him at any moment. And there was another reason behind this that they would know my sad mood just by not seeing the smile on my face and would not stop questioning me till I tell them. But I did not want to tell them anything about it because it is of no use. Telling them will not solve everything. If it had been solved, I would have definitely told them. After coming home, I went to my room and started crying. Nick called and messaged me many times but I did not answer any of them. Maybe because I should have gotten used to that sadness because I had to learn to stay away fro
NICHOLAS~ FLASHBACK CONTINUES ~Julie did not tell me that but I searched for it. I knew it was only because she was afraid of telling me about her harassment — probably because the past hurt her or she was afraid of my reaction? But she did not know that I will not let any bastard breathe peacefully who even tried to lay a hand on my girl, my Julie, my MATE!HOW DARE HE, yeah?I was not going to leave him without giving him a good taste of a few punches. Julie did not want to tell me probably because she was ashamed to do that but I searched for it. This bastard did not just ask for a night from her but he also touched her. He tried to touch her wrongly and when she tried to run away, he manhandled her. What kind of manliness is this? When Thunder realized that, he was rageful. I knew he just wanted to twist his neck painfully but unfortunately, he was not in my grip at that time. And now when he is, he will beg from me for his dear life which I will grant him but not before tort
JULIECrying without stopping causes extreme pain in the head. It is not even visible clearly through my eyes. In such a situation only a fool would wear glasses. But I feel much better lying in bed.But even here I miss him. How surprising that I am lying in my bed just shedding tears for a guy and though we have not even met for a long time. This is really surprising. Some people take a year to fall in love, and some fall in love at first sight.Well, I have nothing to do with them. All I am thinking about is how to learn to stay away from him. I could stay away from him only then only I would be able to save his career although I had no intention of playing with his career.What a pathetic girl I am ! I suddenly hear the sound of my window sliding and that catches my attention. I raise my head from my silky damp pillow and glance at the window just to find Nick there. I know I am not dreaming or delusional about him because I somewhere knew that he would come like this. Sneaking
JULIE"So you don't have to worry because now I'll take the matter into my hands, okay?" He finishes explaining and all I do is nod obediently at him. My head is out of the blanket. The warmth is pleasant enough to lull me into a soft slumber but I try to keep my eyes open, afraid that he may leave me. "And to your other question, yeah, it was me who took care of Steven." That makes me swallow hard. "He did a very wrong deed by touching you. He deserves that." He continues and I open my mouth to protest when he shushes me immediately, sending a glare in my direction. "You won't even say a word for him. I know what I did and I know how I'm going to get out of this shit." That shuts me up and I nod, pushing my face more into the quilt. "Yup, now sleep tight. And I don't want you to continue to ignore me, okay?" I nod. "I've tolerated enough. You should know that I don't appreciate that. You should trust me before anyone." "I trust you," I say quickly because my throat does not hurt
124| We Shall SeeNICHOLASAfter what Claudia has done to Julie so far, I can't stand even a glimpse of her face. My blood boils at the sight of her, but I am compelled not to take her life after catching her under my clutch.She tried to greet me as soon as I came to college in the afternoon but I did not answer her and ignored her and went to my class. I know she was sad — confused more that I just ignored her straight like I did not even see her — but it did not matter to me at all. Is she not herself responsible for this? Well, I do not want to tell her that right now. As soon as my two-hour lecture was over, I went to the staff room. I had nothing to do there except put one of my books back in my bag before leaving for home.And there I found Claudia in peace. She was just using her mobile while sitting at her place and as soon as she saw me at the door of the staff room, she put her mobile down."Nick," she says with a smile as she looks at me. I do not smile back like always.
