Airport - at 10am, " Dear passengers, of flight CA110 are requested to have your boarding pass and identification ready. Regular boarding will begin in approximately 10 minutes. Thank you" ran across my ears which broke my train of thoughts.
Let me introduce myself to you, I'm Skara Johnson, a middle class girl, who just passed secondary school public examination with a top grade.
My parents are teachers working in Government school and are highly ambitious and strict about education and discipline. As soon as I passed with a high grade, they chose Biology, physics and chemistry pre-university course for me to study because they ought to see their daughter as a doctor, because it is a profession with high dignity in today's society.
I was thinking whether to be quiet or to speak out that I'm interested in civil course. It's just my thought and wishful thinking to be a civil servant, but not a single word came out of my mouth and I am here at the airport, boarding to M- city which is considered as an educational hub of the country.
One part of me is hesitating and other part of me is willing to compromise. Cold water splashed on my face..making me determined to continue as my parents wished. Sooner I adjusted my makeup and looked my reflection in the mirror and hurriedly walked out of the rest room.
"Miss Skara, here is your last call and we are going to close the gates for boarding within 5 minutes."
Oh no!! I am late! I shouldn't miss this flight, afterall my father spent a lot to book this flight!
Ah! I bumped into a man, losing my momentum, I didn't even turn back and hurriedly said.... Mister I am sorry and I'm running out of time..with my back facing him and sprinted with all the pace I could.
No one noticed his thin lips pursed into a line and the corner lifted slightly revealing a faint smile.
Young master Wayne, I'm extremely sorry for the inconvenience, said Panther, personal assistant of Abhir Wayne, the only son of the richest clan "Wayne" in I-Country. His sister Vinca Wayne, studies abroad and rarely visits her family so he doesn't have any emotional bond/attachment with her.
He waived his hand to continue. "Young master, as the jet is not in good condition, I booked a business class seat for you for the flight CA110, as Master Wayne summoned you to comeback from the trip immediately at any cost."
Listening to the flight number his eyes brightened remembering the beauty who just bumped into him. But he retained his cold, aloof expression within no time as he remembered his assistant saying that his father summoned him disturbing his peaceful trip.
He didn't know why that little girl intrigued his interest. "Little one if I encounter you once again in M-city I will not let you leave me with ease" he thought in his mind.
Both Skara and Abhir boarded the same plane. Their paths didn't intersect because Skara is in economy class and Abhir in a business class and as soon as he got off he was led into VIP chamber.
"Hey Skara!" Came a voice from behind which made her frightened while she is unpacking her luggage in the dormitory. Other one is Mary Ross, room mate and girl bestie of Skara since childhood.
" Ugh.. You scared me Mary. Why are you here? Don't say that my mom arranged" ... Mary giggled... Mary's face is smashed with the pillow but luckily before a second Mary caught it.
"Alright, alright Skara call it a day! I knew you were desperate to have freedom but silly girl.. You know nothing about this society..all you know is to be a erudite."
Before leaving the room Mary turned bach and winked. "Don't forget to take rest! Tomorrow is our first day and remember our chairman's son is going to give opening speech."
"I heard he is super handsome" puff.. She covered her mouth and giggled.
"Maryy..just get lost.. How annoying!!!!! Why can't you be serious...." by the time she completed her sentence Mary ran halfway down, not even staying a second longer, in order to escape from Skara who might throw a fit if she get pissed off.
Skara is an early bird... So she woke up 5'O clock in the morning even before sunrise and completed her daily routine by 6am. Then she kicked Mary who is still sleeping like a pig.
With a thud.. Ouch!!! "Who dares to kick me... Aaahhh..you will be a dead meat." Half awakened Mary heard giggles and suddenly remembers that she is no longer living in her villa but she's instead lying on a bed in the dormitory.
Swoosh..... Mary hurriedly ran to the restroom and came out within half an hour and sat in front of Skara,neatly dressed. Hmph..... "You kicked me that I was late but you are still in front of the mirror" she wishpered and sighed. Both of them hurried to the college by 7am and still there's half an hour left.
Abhir is going to rehearse his speech on the stage. Not many students arrived. Both Skara and Mary's jaws dropped when they caught a sight of Abhir. "Oh dude!! His beauty is breath taking" murmered Mary.
A slight blush appeared on Skara's cheeks..and her heart thumped violently.... Maybe this is love at first sight.
