LUCIANA ~

Today is just like all other days of my life, boring. You know what, actually my life is practically boring without fun, home to college & college to back home. Nothing new, I want this to change.

But I did not expect it to change this fast.

It was already 7 in the morning and I have the first lecture of Mrs. Parez, she is a very strict lecturer in our college. And she does not accept students in her class after sharp 8 AM.

And you know what, I am going to be that student. You will ask why? Because I can't find a proper outfit for the day. Like god... my closet is full of clothes and still, I can't find a simple outfit. Damn...!!!

You must be wondering who I am...? So Heyy... I am Luciana Castellino, I live in a small apartment which was passed to me by my cousin. A 1bhk apartment. I studying in a college & I have no friends because no one wants to be friends with a nerd. End of the story.

Back to the topic, I am generally not this talkative but in private I talk a lot in my mind. And yeah I found a turmeric yellow pleated skirt with a dark red blouse. Yo, I know this is the worst outfit, no need to highlight anything.

I grabbed my sling bag, slipped my feet in flat shoes, locked my house door behind me, and started heading towards the building Elevator. There's a commotion that is not generally happening.

Thinking of must be a huge friends gathering, I continued walking and stopped in front of the elevator, and press the button. After some time when the elevators door opened I walked inside and just when the door of the elevator closing, someone sticks their feet between the door. Three big guys entered, two with a guard uniform, gun sticking on their hips, and the other guy who is looking like a very powerful man.

His aura is strong, dangerously powerful, a type of guy you don't want to mess with. He is wearing a three-piece suit all black, jaws set one hand inside the pocket and the other one is holding Mobile to his ear, and a black Aviator resting on his nose to hide his eyes.

I can only see him from the back of the elevator but enough to know I don't want him near me after today.

Shady people is all I can say. They belong to the world, I will never accept.

To them, I was not even in here and I like it this way but my phone has other planning. My phone has a terrible habit of ringing at an unexpected time which always puts me in an awkward situation like this.

All the three men turn their attention towards me, my breath hitched from their scrutinizing gaze. The two guards glaring at me but the big guy... I can't tell, his eyes are hidden under the dark shade of his glasses.

He removed his glasses to show me his icy blue eyes, which can see right through me. His lips are full & pink. Something flashed in his eyes which I couldn't capture but something devilish, suddenly I feel claustrophobic. This room is feeling small and small every passing second and its hard breathing the same air he is breathing or like he was taking every ounce of air taking out of my system and I was there trying to draw as much air I can by making as much distance between us as I can while sweating. Before he can invade my personal space, the Elivator bell chimed.

I bolt out of the room before anyone can stop me. Reaching a safe distance I peek a look at him through my shoulder to find him smirking before ordering something in his guard's ear.

At the parking of the building, I started my old ford car. Giving myself an assuring talk about the encounter and moved on the road of my college.

This is a free period, my lecturer is on leave today. We were asked to use it the way we want, so I get to the library and sat at the last table where I can go through my emails without interruption & work on my assignment which is due this Saturday.

After clearing unwanted emails and completing my assignment I walked to my next class which is at the end of the building.

I slipped through the sea of students to my literature class where the lecturer Mr. Grayson is scribbling on the board about today's topic. We do this every time, to discuss the topic and write essays about it as everyday homework. Today's topic was the history of humans.

A

t the end of the period, Mr. Grayson told us to write about 'what beneficiary and destruction come from humans'.

Sorting my today's work I rode back home. I thanked God there is no one outside like the morning then walked towards my door when I noticed the doormat is out of its place, at the opposite side of the door.

Placing it back, I unlocked my door and entered to hang my car keys on the key holder.

Thinking of taking a warm shower, I stripped and get in the shower.

After a relaxing shower, I slipped into a bathrobe & fluffy slippers. Putting my phone on charging which is dead, I walked to the kitchen to make a coffee but I already smelling the coffee like someone is brewing it in my kitchen.

My heart dropped in the pit of my stomach when I saw someone is in the kitchen. A someone who is a man.

His back is towards me so I cannot see him. Well built body, if he can enter in my home then he can do so much more. The things I don't even imagine. So many questions were running through my head like who is this man, how did he enter my home, and most importantly what is he doing in my home.

I can still hear my heartbeat in my ears. He doesn't know I am here. I slowly take the knife out of its holder as a weapon to protect me from the side platform to ask him who he is but he beat me to it...

"Put that knife back my love" saying this he turned around replacing scared with horror on my face when I saw his face.
