EYES CLOSED

It was a cold windy night as Brian laid there on his bed thinking of how his entire Sunday went. 

His  brown and beige curtains would move in the direction of the wind and lets some cold air brush his skin as he laid disqueited.

The wind blossomed heavily now, yet, into his soft skin and he didn't care,  he rather gave in to thoughts of her... He couldn't stop himself from wanting her, he wanted to be with her, or around her perhaps...

He would roll from one end of his bed to the other, allowing the night breeze caress his skin as he gently clossed his eyes in solitude,  waiting for the mystery of the night to take its course. It felt good to him.

 His room was simple. Most men do not concern themselves with much decoration. As long as they have the basics,  they're good. He was one of those men.

He had two windows (both on the left) which were open and a 42 inch plasma hung on the wall. A table by the right side of the room where he studys, a closet and a dressing mirror. I'm sure you can see the picture.

It couldn't have gotten any better, could it? It was a smart thing to do, leaving Ariana's house. Even though they wanted to be together, it wasn't the time for that yet,  so that call, was a good call, against the odds.

 "God must have loved me so much to allow me meet this pretty demoiselle" he said out loud with his eyes closed.

He got so carried away in thought that he saw Ariana in front of him. She walked straight to him and joined him in bed. She was wearing a white lingerie and her hair was undone, she let herself into his arms and kissed him on his neck... In shock,  he opened his eyes and realized all he had seen were all up in his head and he felt very sad. 

 

He could sleep no more, he feared he was beginning to think more of Ariana than he ought. 

He wasn't sure if Ariana feels the same way about him.

Well,  Ariana is attracted to Brian but he doesn't  know how much, or how deep her feelings are for him, and that? Scared the hell out of him. He doesn't want to be with a woman who doesn't feel the same way he feels about her. He want a strong "come back" affection, and that was what he wasn't sure he'll get.

He's beginning to develop strong feelings for her and he doesn't want to be the only one shadowing her. So he laid silently, shutting out everything to gain clarity,  he slept...

•••

The clouds were gathering to send rain to the part of the world where  Ariana lives, as the rain hasn't started falling there. She was still where she was when they left, (Brian and Mr Anderson). 

She was fagged out from drinking and eating, but still in touch with herself. She thought of Brian and how they met,  she gave a smile as she stretched  her hand to pick up the bottle of wine from the table, she poured some into her glass cup and emptied everything in the cup into her mouth and poured another one and did the same thing. 

She was trying to get herself to sleep, so she can lock her feelings temporarily,  but the sleep wasn't coming but the wind.

The doors were open and the curtains gave way for it to whisk through the sitting room where she was.

It was getting bleak as she stood up and closed the windows and went back to clear the place before she retires for the night.

She had carried the tray Alex brought,  together with the three (3) wine bottles on the floor, the bucket she brought the wine in, and the ice bowl to the kitchen. She came out with a mob to clean and take the remaining bottle containing wine to the fridge. As she picked up the bottle and turned to leave, the water from the ice bowl had dripped down the table to the flow which she wasn't  aware of, she tripped and fell with the bottle of wine in her left hand, hiting her head on the center table and smashing the bottle on the floor as she touched down the ground.  The bottle broke in two major parts beside other pieces, and her left hand got stuck in the middle, at the bottom of the bottle. And blood rushed out of her...

She crawled to the middle - double seat, and grabbed her phone with her right hand, pulling her left hand with the other bottle slowly, she dialed Alexandra's number but realizes she has exams the next day, and ended the call before it rang. Then she dialed Brian's and also ended it as well. 

She thought of what to do and who to call, as she  was already feeling weak, then she remembered Mr Anderson had given her his number earlier on,  and she dialed it.. it rang and he picked and Ariana managed to speak...

Ariana: Hello.... Helloo... Helllooo sir... But she could not hear him, neither could he...

Then she ended the call. And texted him.

Hello sir, please come to my house right now, i'm dying...
