HIS LUCKY STAR - EPISODE 11 AND 12

“Mr Austen” Nikita whispered and Austen closed his eyes, tightening his arms around her without minding his wet clothes

He feels better like this, he feels like not letting her to forever

“Mr Austen” she called again, trying to break free so he reluctantly let her go and she stepped away from him

“What did you just do” she said

Her voice isn’t stern or harsh, it was shocked

“I’m sorry…I was just carried away” he said, still shivering slightly

The rain is still pouring though, thanks to the balcony in front of the house where they’re standing

Her clothes is wet already as a result of the hug, his dampened clothes actually wet hers

She started making her way in and as he watched her go, he felt like holding her but he folded his hand to prevent himself from doing that

“I’m sorry” he said again but she won’t look back, she kept walking in and he kept shivering

Nikita was about to open the door and go in but she suddenly stopped,,

He’s wet from the rain and when he hugged her, she detected that he was shivering and also…. It’s still raining, there’s no way he’ll be able to drive

She stopped and turned to his direction, she walked back to him and searched for him with her hand, she got his hand and held it

“Follow me” she said, pulling him in

He smiled slowly as he followed the blind smart girl, leading him into her house

They got in and she went to the bathroom to get him a towel which he dried his wet hair with

“I dunno why you came here but…. I just can’t stand people suffering” she said

” Thanks for letting me in” he replied

” Eddy’s clothes won’t fit you, you’re taller and … My clothes…I have big sweaters and baggy hoodie pants though, if you’ll manage” she said

” I don’t mind” he replied and she she went in, she came back with them some minutes later

“Mr Austen?” She said

“Yes?” He replied and she traced his voice to where he’s standing

“Here” she said, handing it over to him, he took it and smiled again, staring at her….. how can she be so adorable, so much that she’s making him want to hug her again

*The bathroom is that way, you can go in there and change” she said, pointing at it

He walked there, opened the door and entered the small bathroom

His bathroom at home is maybe fifteen times bigger but still, he’s happy to be here

He changed into the clothes she gave him and pulled his clothes into one of the pails he found in there before coming out, by now the flu is leaving him bit by bit

She’s still waiting at the living room when he got there,,

“You’re done?” She asked

“Yes… thanks” he replied and she sighed

“Is the flu gone too?” She asked

“Maybe” he replied, staring at her lips as she nodded

“We’ll be three on my bed tonight….I guess you’ll have to sleep here in the living room” she said slowly

” I’ll be ok….you can go” he replied

Without saying a word again, she turned to go but he quickly grabbed her hand and she turned back

“What?” She asked

“I just…. wanted to thank you… for taking me in” he said

She wriggled her hand and he quickly let it go

“I’m sorry” he whispered, looking into her eyes…. The fact that she’s blind didn’t affect the beauty of it, it’s the most beautiful eyes he has ever seen

Nikita went in and he licked his lips before sitting beside the table, he checked the time, exactly some minutes to 10, it’s still raining outside

He smiled and sighed before looking at his hand, the one he held her with

“I don’t regret getting drenched in the rain….. I don’t regret coming here” he said, remembering the hug earlier

” LAFS…. it’s real” he smiled , placing his head on the table and maybe because he hugged her or because he held her, or because he’s around her….. For the first time in many years, he fell into a deep night sleep.

Nikita changed her clothes since the one she was putting on is slightly wet from the hug

She finished changing and climbed the bed to sleep but remembered she didn’t give him any cover clothe,,

She got an extra one from the wardrobe and went to the living room again, she started searching for him on the four sides of the table and luckily she found him at the third side,,

She covered him and sighed, standing for a while before going in, she only slept off at midnight

Next morning**

“My jeez!, I love Saturdays!” Eddy said loudly immediately he woke and stretched himself

” Everyone does” BB replied beside him, pressing her phone…she has been awake since some minutes ago

“Whoa!, You totally look like a real girl with your short hair scattered like this all-over your head” Eddy said

” Stop talking about me and get your ass off bed” she replied and he smiled before coming to her

“Go away else I’ll kick you and send you flying to….

” You should have gotten tired of San Francisco right now, you should make bigger plans for your kicks, like Paris or Spain” he said

” Baby Teddy” she teased and made to rush down from the bed but he got her and pinned her down

“Say that again and I’ll just … Do something that’ll make you hate me” he said naughtily

” Baby Teddy” she replied without blinking and he smiled before starting to bend over to her

“Don’t try it” she glared, knowing what he’s trying to do already

“What if I do?, Not like you’ll kill me” he replied and made to cover the remaining space between them but she pushed him away and he fell on the ground, hurting his arm

“Ouch!” He winced, sitting up while holding his arm

” You must have been a weightlifter before” he said

“Whatever, f*ck you” she glared and left the room

” You’re so nasty… how could you” he groaned, standing up to follow her out

“Did he probably break in at night?, What’s he doing here?, Who’s he?” He asked himself and BB walked swiftly to Austen, she removed the cover clothe from his body and his face came to view

“I’ve not seen him before” she said and Eddy came to her, he looked at him and his eyes widened

“The pervert?” He said loudly

“Pervert?” BB said

Eddy hit Austen very hard and his skin stung as he opened his eyes

“How did you get here Mr Austen Malcolm” Eddy demanded and he stood, stretched himself

” That’s Nikita’s sweater and jogger pants… How did you get them, you didn’t probably steal them from her wardrobe right?” Eddy said

” What are you talking about?, Stealing?” Austen said in confusion

“Then how did you get here and how come you’re wearing my sister’s clothes!” Eddy said loudly

” I took him in” Nikita said, coming from the room

“Where were you?” BB asked

“In the bathroom” she replied

” I didn’t hear the sound of splashing water when I woke up” Eddy said

“I wasn’t bathing, I was drying his clothes with my hair dryer” she replied

” When did he get here?, How did he come in and how come he’s wearing your clothes….I’m confused” Eddy said

” He came last night when it was raining though I dunno why he stayed in the rain,he got drenched so I had no choice but to take him in when he caught the flu, he couldn’t possibly go to bed with the soaked clothes so I had to give him mine” she replied

” Since when have you woken up to dry his clothes” Eddy asked

” Past 6″ she replied

” What!, You never slept till 6 all because of him?, Now why did you come here to take my sister’s sleep and clothes away, why!” He shouted and tried to go closer to Austen but BB pulled him back

” Stop embarrassing yourself…. Try to get what’s going on” she said

” And what the hell is going on”

” You’re so clueless, you’re as dumb as a doorknob” she said

” What are you talking about”

” Nevermind” she rolled eyes

” Mr Austen your clothes is ready” Nikita said

“Thanks …. I’m sorry for taking away your sleep, really sorry, I didn’t mean to” he replied

” No it’s fine” Nikita replied and Austen looked at Eddy, he’s busy giving him unfriendly looks

“Don’t try to do anything funny, else I’ll kill you” he mouthed and Austen smiled

He went into the bathroom and changed into his clothes and when he came back, Nikita already prepared warm coffee, the mocha he loves so much

“For you” she said, handing the cup of warm coffee to him and instantly, he felt like hugging her tightly….. It’s a crime to keep seducing him with everything she does like this but this lady right here is unaware of the crime she’s committing

He stared endlessly at her, cupping his palms around the cup

“Love is a badass” BB muttered, going towards the door

” Leaving already?” Eddy asked

“Of course, pizza deliveries continues today…what about you,. Have anywhere to go?” She asked

” I’ll just take Kita to the cafe then…… maybe I’ll go visit Olive” he replied

” Follow me to deliver pizzas first then we can go visit her together…. and Kita, think twice about the offer…450 is a whole lot, I’m even planning to lend from you already so please…..take it I beg you” BB said and left

” Nikita you’re taking the offer, no going back ok? ” Eddy said but Kita kept quiet

Austen just finished the cup of coffee and Eddy snatched the cup from him

“Goodbye!” He glared and Austen only smiled

“Goodbye” he said and looked at Nikita, wishing he could at least hold her hand again

“Nik…. Thanks for everything, I’ll forever be grateful…” he said

” It’s nothing Mr Austen, drive safely” she smiled and Austen’s heart thumped as he left the house

“Why would you take that pervert in” Eddy said Immediately

“I couldn’t possibly leave him in the rain and besides…. He’s not a pervert” she replied but that came with a doubt when she remembered the last night hug

” Really?” Eddy said

“Sure” she replied and went in

“She’s too straight” he smiled, following her

******

MM group of companies, 9am**

The staffs in Austen’s floor greeted him respectively as he stepped in, smiling widely

It’s rare to see his smile but the fact that he’s smiling today surely means something

*How was your nights?, You all slept well I guess” he asked, surprising them all

” Yes sir!” They chorused and he smiled again

“Let’s work hard today” he said and left for his office

” Something happened last night right?, What are you not telling me?, You’re smiling and it’s unusual” Ray asked

Austen fell on his chair and closed his eyes, thinking about the hug

“Ray do you know how happy I am right now?” He said

“About what?”

“Jeez!, Can’t believe I’ll ever be happy like this again all my life” he said and Ray got more confused

” What exactly happened?” He asked

“I’ll tell you maybe a year later” Austen replied

” Boss” Ray whined and Austen laughed

The door opened roughly and Melissa came in rudely

“I hate you!, I just came to tell you that” she yelled, throwing papers at him, littering everywhere with the papers

“What do you think you’re doing!” He yelled

“Bastard!, You’re just one illegitimate son!, I’m sure Lira got impregnated by a concubine and that only makes your mother a whore! And you a bastard!, You don’t belong to the Malcolm family!, Stop showing your face anywhere in this office!, You don’t even deserve to be breathing,you’re wasting air!” She yelled

” Wait…. which Lira are you talking about” Austen said

” Your shameless late mum of course!” She yelled and before Ray could stop him, Austen walked briskly to her and slapped her, her hair scattered all-over her face as a result

“I can take all insult you have for me, I can take whatever you wanna say to me but saying dirty things about my mum is not allowed… I can wound you” he said seriously

Melissa held her face, looking up at him

“If mum hears about this, what do you think will happen to you” she said

“I’ll go to jail or be sent out of the world?, You need to get out right now… securities!” He yelled and three of them came in

” Take her out” he ordered

“Out of my dad’s company?, Austen you’ll regret this!, Austen mum will kill you just know that!, Austen!” He shouted till she was completely taken out

Austen fell back on his chair and Ray decided not to talk to him, he left him alone since that’s the best thing for him right now

“I thought I’ll be happy throughout today” he thought and as if what just happened is not enough, Das came in

He stood in front of him and Austen stood skittishly

“Dad” he said

“Attend the conference in my place….. Don’t show your murdering qualities there anyways” he said hatefully and head out

” Do you hate me that much?, So much that you remind me that I’m a murderer at any chance you get?” Austen said hurtfully

” It’ll be my stand forever….you murdered her” he replied and left

Austen fell back on the chair and threw his head back

“Today got ruined again…. damnit!!’ he shouted

******

4pm**

” Go slowly, go slowly!!!, You’re moving too fast!!” Eddy shouted behind BB who’s riding the bike

He has been delivering with her since he dropped Nikita at the coffee shop in the morning and it has seriously been fun but she’s crazy

She increased her speed and Eddy held her so tight, always squeezing life out of her, suffocating her a lot but she kept speeding,,

“Bright!!!, Go slow!!” He screamed again

“Baby calm down” she replied, finally going slow

” I’m not coming with you anymore after this since you’re planning to make me die” he said

“This will be my last delivery for today” she said

“Mister Rick says you’re not leaving work till past 9” she replied

“He’s kidding himself” she replied, sliding into the house she’s delivering to

She finished delivering and sighed, stretching herself

“So what next?” Eddy asked

“Let’s go to Olive’s place” she said

“Can I really ride with you again?” Eddy said and BB laughed

” Let’s go come on I’ll be gentle” she said and he quickly pecked her cheek

” What the hell!” She yelled

“It should be on the lips but maybe I don’t wanna receive a kick that’ll send me flying to San Francisco” he said and she punched his stomach

” Ouch!” He groaned, holding it

“Don’t try it again…. Teddy” she said before mounting the bike

He smiled and climbed behind her then the journey started to Olive’s house

“Just go straight then towards that bend, go left” he directed,,

She was about to go left when a car hit the bike from the back

The bike fell and they both fell, hurting their legs and arms, the rear light of the bike got broken too

“Ouch!” BB winced painfully, standing up, her legs hurts a lot

” Teddy are you ok?” She asked

Eddy stood and dusted his clothes

” I’m ok” he said, he got a cut on his arm

BB went to the car and knocked the tinted window. It’s an expensive car, obviously some rich brat

She knocked but no answer came, she knocked again, harder than the first

If the driver has no money to give to treat their minor wounds, he should at least be sorry

She knocked it again but nothing is happening

She lost it completely and took off her boot, she made to hit it on the window but the door opened abruptly and maybe the person knowingly hit it on her, it hit her and she staggered but thankfully Eddy caught her

The arrogant looking dude looked at them as if they’re meaningless and sighed, he’s handsome no doubt, like a demigod, he’s hot

“Drew Kaz, the popular model” Eddy said and BB stepped forward

” My arms and legs got wounded, Eddy got wounded too as a result of your reckless driving…..you almost knocked me down with your car door too, are you really a human?” She said and Drew frowned

” Many girls will almost go crazy if I hit them, they’ll want me to hit them again, girls are crazy about me but you….ugly thing….are you saying you haven’t been hearing about me?” He said and BB smirked,,

Right now she has a little patience in her and she might just lose it if he says another thing

“Did you hit your head on your ego?, Seriously guys like you are why girls turn lesbians…. ” She said

” What!”

” Give me money for treatment” BB said, flexing her fingers

” Are you planning to lose your face?, Do what she asked” Eddy said

” Her boyfriend?, Oh ugly girls are dating these days….well I have a shoot to go for so I have no time to spend with worthless commoners” he said arrogantly and made to enter his car..

” I’ll miss you a little bit Teddy….I think I’m going back to jail faster than I planned” BB said and grabbed Drew’s hair, pulling him back roughly

She hit his head directly on the car window, Drew’s head got wounded and made funny noises, she immediately dragged him to the car bonnet,,
.
She flipped him over her shoulder and hit his back on the bonnet,,

Blood oozed out of Drew’s mouth and wounded head as he went unconscious, falling flat on the ground

“Bright!” Eddy shouted..
