@Wishing-Star Thanks a bunch. You made me update ;)
Video Diary
Oye! It's me Red Lalaine. Don't tell me you forgot that name of mine. Nobody really seems to remember that. Um..Err..You know the talk show was the biggest shit I've ever done in my life. I was pissed off in front of the entire world a hundred times. Mom saw the video from Facebook. Bad right? Yeah I know it. It went viral over the internet and the response was amazing. There were a bunch of "Shut up You bads*s or BR*t" or something of that kind . They said you're a real... that... this . It went on. Well there's hardly one or two who supports me. Why the he^k is that? It seems as if they wouldn't defend themselves if they were in my place. Silly Morons.
Mom is not upset anyhow. That's all I need. She's my world. She's my only world. You don't know how much I love her. I wanted to ask her the reason why Dad left us. Or was it us who left him? I'm afraid these questions might make her weak. All these years I didn't bother to ask even though I wanted to ask a couple of times. So, it shows that I can control my curiosity for the rest of my life. Those old schools I've been to gave me the worst memories. The taunting and bullying..Argh Why is that everyone loves to hurt me.
There's a good news Poppy. I saw a fresh new dream. It's awfully awkward. Let me explain. I saw a boy around 19 to 23 years. I didn't see his face though I saw his eyes . Probably I guessed his age just my seeing his eyes. Ain't I talented? Just his grey eyes. I really hate this suspense stuff. Whatever I see becomes true sooner or latter..You know in some point of my life. What do you call them? Ahh! prophetic dreams.
The worst part about them is that even though I'm warned I never take it seriously nor do I remember about them in the right time. I can't stop me from mocking at myself.
Grey eyes. You know what I'm trying to relate it to. If it's so then I can't wait.
I guess Mom's calling me. So take care dear.
I walked to my college. Obviously we can't afford two cars right now. Our economy sinks. I'm bankrupt ever since I left that job at the book shop. Mom doesn't want me to work. I don't know why. The sudden hike in price is distressing me. Last night I heard my Mom talking to Aunt Alizza about my wedding. She didn't find anyone. Nor did I. Who would come to ask for my hand. Obviously none.
"Namaasttey..Fuchsia." I heard a voice from a car that had stopped beside me. Gosh I reached the college gate so quickly ? I was deep buried in my thoughts I didn't know about it. Who's this guy now? Namasthey ??? [This word is used in Hindi to greet people] Whose this Canadian trying a whole lot to talk Indian?
Wait a minute. Did he call me Fuchsia? How come he knows my name? Oh shut up Fuchsia, the whole world just saw you on television and internet where you told everything about yourself. Okay, not everything but still, don't be a stupid. I mentally slapped myself.
I looked at his face. He had well defined features. You take a glance you'd definitely say - "Damn hot." He had grey eyes and a massive grin playing on his pink lips. His blond hair was messed up.
"Its not Namaaaasttey. It's just Namasthey..They okay?? Anyway I appreciate your effort." But how does he know that I'm a half Indian. Okay not really though. My Mom's Dad is a NRI - Non Resident Indian. I know this Hindi Language here and there cause I live with Mom and I'm quite connected to her family. I really like learning languages. I know Spanish, French, Irish, Portuguese,Hindi and a lot more.
" Whatever Fuchsia. I'm Aaric Treyton. Glad to meet you. India is the only place I know in Asia."
"Okay I'm Fuchsia Lavender. And that was bad try on humor. I guess you need to work more. "
"Okay Ma'am, I will. You want me to drop you? " He smiled at me. This guy is nuts. Really nuts. I'm standing in front of the gate and he's asking me whether he should take me in his car for a 10 metre drive.
" Are you crazy? Whoops... I didn't mean that . I just wanna say no thanks "
" Okay stand right here. I'll park my car and come. Don't go. We need to have a conversation."
Argh I know what he's going to ask me. About my weird name..My stupid life...My lovely family which they think as a stupid one...About those rumours that my Mom is like this or like that ..Or perhaps Why my Dad and Mom are not legally separated. Who so ever comes to me with a smile and lends a friendly helping hand eventually turn out to be my enemies after asking me on one of these. Okay Fuchsia, you've gone through this a whole lota times. So its nothing new. And this time no slapping kicking punching or kneeing his balls. It's not because you're afraid or he's stronger than you. It's just because I need to teach you how to hold on Fuchsia, there's more troubles coming. If you don't control yourself now you won't learn and I know you're terrible with boys but please not this time.
"what ?? more problems? Argh! I'm F^cked up with the existing ones. Please don't increase my blood pressure so Shut up for a while." I smacked my head.
" Err..Umm..Is anything wrong?" Aaric asked all confused. He must have heard what I said.
"Nothing..Uh I'm perfect! " I said in embarrassment. He might have thought I'm a lunatic. I can't blame him.
"So lets go then." He said and I smiled at him.
Wait a minute -GREY EYES- He has them. Those grey eyes. Yahooooo! I guess I found the owner of those eyes I dreamt. Cool.
"Grey eyes!" It suddenly came out of my mouth in excitement. Was it really excitement? Geez, I don't know the answer.
"Oh these? " he asked pointing his eyes." Those are just contact lenses I bought the last day. You know I've got a thing for grey. "
"What? you don't have grey eyes? " Questions popped out without my own permission.
"I've got blue eyes young lady. Between what does these grey eyes have to do with you? "
"Ugh-Nothing. I- I've read that grey eyed people are ...are really wonderful..ugh not really..I mean smart and wise and good at resolving problems. " I lied. I have never read about these stuffs. I just told what came onto my mind at the moment. God knows if they really are? What if grey eyers are monsters? Haha. Anyway that was pretty close. I sighed. Crap I thought I found that guy.
Shit.
Or maybe he's the one my dreams had been telling me? It can be like the dream fairies doesnt know he's been wearing contact lenses and he had blue eyes. Does these dream fairies really exist? God knows.
"Oh really? Did you read anything about blue eyers?"
"Uh -Yes- Ahh- No - Yaah- I mean-Not really-Ugh-maybe"
"What? Now which one shall I go for? "
"Actually I don't seem to remember." I replied. Fuchsia stop acting like a stupid.
"Short term memory loss uh? " He teased. But I did not reply to that.
" Oh! nooo. There she is. We gotta change our path Fuchsia. " He whispered.
I looked around to see who this SHE was. Haha It was none other than the flirty crocodile. This guy is scared of Anna. What nonsense. I was literally rolling on the floor laughing.
She waved her hand. Obviously not to me.
"She saw you man. I here by declare that there's no possible way of escape from the flirty crocodile."
" I'm trapped. Flirty crocodile? Cool nick name. " I giggled.
She walked towards us. Yeah I mean towards HIM. And the way she walks. She thinks she's a heroine in a movie walking towards the hero. That's just her imagination because in reality her walk is... ewww! I really feel like vomiting.
"Hey Aaric ! I caught ya honey." She said as she winked at him and placed her hand on his chest. Aaric was all sweating. I was trying hard to hold my laughter. My mouth got puffed with air. You know that's how it is when you see something really hilarious and you're not supposed to laugh because you're putting an end to the upcoming ridiculous acts.
"Oh! Ahh! Hi Anna. : He said with a million emotions in his words.
Nervousness- Tension-Anxiety-Anguishness -Irritation-Shocked and a lot more.
That made me make a weird sound.. Like Ppppprrrr...Beacuse I couldn't hold my laughter any longer.
" Eww What are you doing here with this Br^t? " She asked while playing with her key chain. And it suddenly fell from her hand which made her pronounce the last word 'Buu..rrraa..tt' . Me and Aaric looked at each other and sighed.
She bend down to pick it up. She was wearing a jean shorts and a sleeveless T-shirt which had a wide 'V' neck. Really wide. I saw her pulling the Tees down when she bend. I won't call THAT hot.
"YUCK!!" Both of us exclaimed in union. We paused for a moment looking at each other wondering about 'our unity' and burst out laughing.
She was annoyed and walked off huffily.
"Yaaay! we got rid of her. " He sighed doing a happy dance.
"And now I know something more about her."
"What?" He asked before I completed my sentence. Good thing he did that or else I'd loose a chance of black mailing her.
"Oh Nothing." I lied again. I was not sure if I could trust him. Yeaah I had just found her secret crush which the whole college wants to know. It's true that she's a playgirl and talks to boys as if she owns them all. You know every instituition will have a black spot somewhere in it. Whatever. Aaric seemed special to her. I could see the arrogance in her eyes because we were spotted together. I could see the revenge in her eyes when she left annoyed.
"Are you from the NOTHING land?" He smirked. I can't blame him because I say that word a hundred times a day.
"Yeah I'm Miss Nothing Nothing hailing from the Nothing land. We pray to the nothing god. Between what's your problem Mr.WHAT boy?." I called him so because each time I say something he ends up asking 'What'.
"Whoa please stop. Haha. That was really funny but sorry I can't get my laughter out for that joke."
"Whatever. Gottago. I can't be late." I waved .
I'm a fresher here. Fresher?? 6 months ago I joined this college but I wasn't successful in making even 1 friend. Some girls do help me complete my notes and I help them some other way too. But those stories end with these 'Give and Takes'. 98% of the students are wealthy, own a car and wears all branded stuffs. Aaric is also one among them. I've seen Aaric a couple of times. He's doing his second year.
Wait he didn't tell me what he wanted to say.
"Hey you still there? You didn't tell me what you wanted to say. Hellooo." I shouted facing the corridor. It was kinda dark and scary. Right now I could hear the silence.
DAP-DAP-DAP
I could hear the footsteps.
DAP DAP DAP
Somebody was coming ....
DAP DAP DAP
I have a strange feeling that I am in trouble. There was nobody around. "Fuchsia, Trouble's coming. Fuchsia, Trouble's on its way." My heart kept saying....
Who might be coming? Grey eyes ?? Who's that guy? Is that really a guy or is it a girl??
