Anya's P.O.V.
Aliza?
Who is she?
Upon hearing her name Zayd got tensed.
His grip tightened around my hand, it hurt me.
I was feeling the pain.
He looked at me and loosened the grip.
But his hand was still holding mine.
He pulled me with him out of his house, with my other hand I managed to hold his loose Pant that I was wearing.
He made me sit in his car.
And then he too sat and drove off.
I didn't ask him anything about what his dad was telling.
His dad hating me and the girl Aliza knew the reason why?
How does she know?
Who is she?
Who is she to Zayd?
I looked at him, his hands gripping the steering wheel tight.
He was driving faster than usual.
Whoever she is to him, it's something he cares about.
He only gets tensed and angry when he truly cares.
I looked at the road and realised that we were not going the way to my place.
So I spoke,"You have passed the way to my house."
He didn't say anything instead he ignored me and kept on driving.
I can't believe him! How could he just ignore me?
I too didn't budge him further by asking again.
He then spoke,"i just have to go somewhere far."
Is Aliza such a sensitive topic for him?
I nodded.
It hurts thinking that maybe just maybe am not his first.
At the same time he is not my first either.
I then felt a hand on my hand.
Our palms touching, he closed his fingers around mine and continued driving looking ahead at the road.
His anger had eased.
He looked at calm.
I closed my fingers around his too.
I saw that we were at the outskirts of the town, passing through trees.
After the ride of about half an hour, his car stopped.
I looked at him.
He didn't say anything just sat there facing the forest.
His hand was still enclosed in mine.
He took our hands and kept on his lap, he held my hand with both his hands and said facing towards me now,"i want to show you something, just promise me that you won't judge me after you see."
"Is it something about the girl Aliza?" I asked sounding little jealous.
A faint smile appeared on his lips and he said,"you have the right to be jealous."
"But am not jealous," i lied.
"Yes you are Jealous Coeur."He stated.
"No am not."
"You cannot lie to me." He said.
I looked at him with my my angry look and he said,"okay! I believe you, now hop out, we need to go inside this forest."
I hopped out of his car and looked at my dress, i mean his shirt n loose jeans.
Heck! I wasn't wearing any shoes.
Would i always dress bad whenever I go with Zayd to forests?
He stood infront of me and raised his eye-brows.
I looked at him and said,"there is no way am going inside this forest in this dress code."
"There is nothing wrong with your clothes," he took my hand in his and was just going inside the forest dragging me when I spoke,"No i don't want to go,I don't want to be lost and then get villagiously married to you."
He laughed and said, keeping his forehead on mine,"okay then, we can be lost and then do our honeymoon, what say?"
I blushed at that but said,"i dont have shoes either."
He pecked my lips and said,"your excuses are lame Coeur."
He then bent and scooped me in his arms.
Carrying me, he headed inside the forest.
"What are you doing?" I asked, he cannot just carry me without asking me.
"What? Am walking why you got a problem with that?" He spoke.
I rolled my eyes and said,"okay my bad, I meant why have you carried me?"
He looked at me and pecked my lips then said,"Because I wanted too."
I could hear the rustle of the leaves beneath his feet.
The twigs cracking with every step he takes,"i might be heavy."
"Yes you are but I have no other option than to carry you," i could clearly figure out he lied.
He then smiled and said,"stop looking at me like this creep."
I rolled my eyes at his sentence.
We then stopped near a stream and he said,"i cannot cross this stream with you in my arms."
"You can then let me cross myself," i said.
But he denied and continued walking.
"Is it that important for you to show me?" I asked.
He nodded.
"Its about Aliza yeah?" I asked.
He nodded again.
I looked at his eyes, they held a different emotion right now.
"You loved her didn't you?"
His eyes averted towards my eyes and he said," yes i did."
I gulped and made him stop and got off from him.
He asked concern,"what's wrong?"
I didn't answer anything and asked,"so we are to go this way?" I pointed my finger on the right side.
He held my finger and made me face him, he then spoke,"i loved her now i don't... i don't even think if it was love or my teen fling..but now I love you and always will."
He held my face in his hand and keeping his forehead on mine he said,"you may not be my first but you sure are my last and my one and only."
A tear escaped my eye and he kissed it away, he carried me again and led the way.
We reached a tree house, he let me climb up and he came after.
The tree house is just beautiful although it was a little dusty.
"Its a little dusty cause it's been long since I came." He spoke from behind.
I turned to face him and said,"its beautiful."
Realisation struck and slowly my smile faded and i said,"its your home with Aliza."
His eyebrows furrowed he said, "No... it's my home with Aisha."
"But...but you said you wanted to show me something about Aliza."
He nodded and said,"yeah I did, but first we need to clean this house a bit."
Facing the tree house again I smiled and nodded too.
Am sure the tree house will look more beautiful after it been cleaned.
