UNBOUNDED ATMOSPHERE 

"You have a beautiful name too Alexandra. I thought  it was only men who bear such names...", Alex smiled.

"come to think of it, (Brian continued),
I think it suit females more, or what do y'all think?" (Looking at the ladies), they laughed and chorused...,  yes!  But Alexandra thought for a second,  "was that necessary or he was looking to make conversation...?"

Then, no one said anything for the rest of the ride, but,  a lot was said as they journed in silence...

Ariana was caught between worlds of feeling. She was experiencing immeasurable, unprecedented, overwhelming, unbounded atmosphere of emotions running deep.

She didn't know what this was, (the feeling she was having), she wasn't aware of what was going on.

"Could this be love at first sight? Oh God no! Whatever this is, I want it, I want it to be real, please God. I've heard of love at first sight, and it finally ends the way it starts, infatuation and deceit. I dont want that,  I want this, this is what I want. It looks real, it feels real. All of it in its totality..."

How could she be wanting someone so, who may not want her or be interested in her in that manner?

This were her cogitations as Brian reached out to her and held her hand while she was in her  thoughts.  As soon as that happened,  it sent shivers down her body and she closed her eyes to enjoy the sensation slightly and opened it almost immediately.

Eyes were rolling from the front to the back and from beside her to him. Alex trying to pass a message  to Ariana because she finally understood why she was in a haste to leave even though she doesn't have all the details yet. And Brian checking Ariana out from her head to her toes and giving body languages of acceptance and all, she was going to pass out for excitement sake.

Then there was this driver, rolling his eyes through his mirror rubbernecking as though he could call Ariana or Alex,  or even Brian later and get the full gist of what was happening right there because he understood the the moment and shared  so little from it he thought...  It was indeed a sight you'd love to see.

"The tension in the air was too much. The fair guy at the back seat seem to like the lady he's sitting with very much,  but why are they not talking anymore?  At first I thought they were friends, like dating friends, but now I see what is going on, they probably are meeting for the first time. Wow! For real? ".

He chuckled and kept the plot of whose number he'd ask for, for keeps, to twist him or her into explaining the situation to him or where it finally landed them afterwards. He wanted to know so badly that he considered his thoughts.  He recalled  he had gotten Ariana's number cause of the ride she booked, and this made him happier as he similed as though he just figured out a puzzle no one could figure.

This cab man is just a nosey fellow. Can you imagine?  People dont stay out of other people's businesses anymore. They like to stick their nose where its not needed. Would he really call Ariana back to twist her to telling him all that...?

Alex was still being mischievous with her looks.  She would look at Ariana from the driver's side mirror and gave a smile.

IN HIS MIND

Brian was flabbergasted with his action minutes ago. He couldn't believe what he had done. He was wondering how he canceled his ride for a lady he just met. This isn't him, this is not who he is. He doesn't do things like this, but he didn't show his contemplation neither did he show his disinterestedness in wanting  her. As a matter of fact,  he was taken by her the very moment he saw her, and her, him. The only good thing was, he knows how to control his emotions and not let it show.

"I can't believe I looked at her from the beginning of the service till the end. Gush! I hope she didn't notice me looking at her" ( he placed his left hand on his forehead uncontrollably as he was still holding Ariana's hand with his right...), cause the thought alone made him backbreaking and that, gave him away.

Immediately that happened,  Ariana turned to him in concern and out of herself...

Ariana: "Are you okay Brian? " as she brought her other hand that was free and placed it on the other two locked together, and Brian opened his eyes and for the first time, their eyes met up close and immediately, Ariana's heart dropped, running between time and wind, between all the natural systems that exists. She was going to pass out.  Brian reached out his other  hand and placed it on the one she just  kept on his, and their both hands were now on each other's, with them facing themselves now as though he could read her mind and saw what was going on with her.

 The heat from his hand ignited the fire in her belly and she wanted to explode.  She felt a spark from within, from her belly running up to her mouth and saturating her being, making no room for escape, creating more space in her for pleasure, making sweet nothings for her to enjoy. They stared...
