Chapter 7 - Ella

The guy next to me was the weirdest person I had come across. Due to all the excitement, I had slept on the flight but I feel like someone was watching me it didn't feel weird cause it wasn't a bad kind of feeling. I opened my eyes and see the guy next to me crying, I wanted to comfort him so I held his arm but he tossed it away like my touch was burning him. Like I was forbidden to be touched, and every touch of mine would leave a scar on him.

I wanted to yet talk to him to find some kind of connection with him but I couldn't pinpoint this feeling as to what it was, I felt a rush of emotions in my heart it was beating very fast and I couldn't know what was happening to me. I wanted to cry, deep down I got the feeling of being rejected by him, but it felt like I couldn't resist it.

Yet for the sake of his privacy, I didn't say anything, I didn't ask or tell him anything even though I felt I wanted to tell him everything that I know and ask about everything he ever knew. It felt amazing and scary at the exact moment. But I knew that he didn't need my help so I went to the air hostess and asked her to help him, she gave him some water and he seemed fine. I felt relief for that moment, but I didn't know how many other events were on their way to unfold. This trip would be a rollercoaster ride of destiny, but our red string of fate had already been attached.

As I reached Paris bad things started to happen to me at least that what I thought for that moment. As I reached outside the airport I started to look for a cab, and while I was searching my things were going missing. Someone had stolen my bags and all I was left with was my purse which only had my phone, some cosmetic things, passport and some money and cards, without my things I felt scared luckily, I remembered the name of the hotel, but I didn't have my guide book and language book was lost. All alone in a big city with no Prince charming to rescue me.

But I had a prince charming to rescue me, I felt funny when I thought this in my mind. The guy who didn't want to look at me through the whole journey wanted to help me now. I should have refused his help but I was desperate and alone, but more that I felt a deep connection with me I felt relief that he was near me and wanted to help me I felt protected.

I had never felt this way for anyone but here I was thinking about him and not the things that I had just lost. He introduced himself as Daniel and the guy next to him was Peter his best friend who lived in Paris Marais district. Daniel the name itself made my stomach feel butterflies, I felt a weird clingy feeling in my heart, it felt as if I had known him from before but I couldn't remember from where I felt like that.

We all went to the police station and filed a complaint to find my belongings. The police were friendly and nice, Daniel had registered himself as my caretaker funny I only knew him for an hour I guess but yet I felt we both knew each other from before. While I was about to leave Peter asked about where I was staying and I informed him that I was staying at the Eiffel Villa Garibaldi hotel but the change in his expression looked weird, so I asked him what the problem was and he informed me that they had some kind of problem and often due to some mistake would book two people the same room I was shocked to hear this and felt bad that I had not investigated before booking it.

But I didn't, read anything, like this even when I had read reviews on the hotel, everything seemed just perfect, I found it weird that Peter was saying something like us, but the people who live there know the best I guess.

Just when I was lost in my thoughts Peter suggested I could live in his apartment he was leaving today and Daniel was the only one who was staying and he felt that I could company him, I would have declined the invitation but I felt grateful for their help and I wanted to stay near Daniel even sounded weird even to me the way I wanted to stay close to him. Guess, I let my greed get the best of me. I cancelled my reservations and decided to go with Daniel.

"Mysterious hidden are sure to be explored at the right time making wonders happen."

Peter gave his apartment address to the police station so that they could deliver my luggage there once they find it. Peter was more like a person you would want to become friends with, you could feel his joyful aura inside yourself too. He was a lovely person and a person you could never get bored of ever. Funny how he and Daniel were best friends, Daniel seemed like he was in a bubble or a wall of bricks to prevent anyone from entering his life. He didn't talk much and seemed like he was in a bad mood.

He seemed to like how I am, or have become. Did something happen to you too Daniel? Are you also finding the hidden answers, to the questions that are forbidden?

I felt like no matter if he was taken or single, I just wanted to glare into his eyes and slowly feel my self losing into them.

Peter, gave me a grin look as he could read my mind or did he read it?? I could see an angel turning into a devil. He seemed to have suddenly got something bizarre on his mind, and I could feel the light aura turning into a dark one.
