Crystallized Truth

Chapter 3 - A Bad Start

Wide awake on her bed, Amelia stared the golden ceiling with mixed feelings. Confusion was creating a havoc in her mind, pushing sleep far from her eyes.

Nature had attracted her always. In a way that couldn't be explained. Her happiness had doubled on arriving in Dehradun. A sense of homeliness had engulfed her.

It was all perfect.

Until the tussle with that guy.

Losing her coolness wasn't her nature, and poking in other issues wasn't her habit. But that guy forced her to do exactly what she never did.

He was talking to himself and there was no reason for her to indulge in arguement or teach him lesson. Being rude, wasn't planned but something in that guy forced her to. It was like the control, she always had on herself, was lost.

It was as if the only thought of that guy, and his presence, was enough to flame up the anger in her. As if, he was her arch enemy from years.

An odd feeling nagged her. A feeling she never felt before.

For a second, she decided to talk to Ava but then realising it was midnight, she resisted herself, not wanting to disturb her sleep.

"I hate you Mr. Idiot" Amelia muttered gazing the ceiling, frustrated of her sudden insomnia and mood swings.

.

Throwing the towel on bed, Ashley stood in front of mirror, styling his hair and muttering curses under his breath. The rage was flaming in him and a cold shower in the biting coldness, didn't help his anger either.

No one. No one ever dared to speak against him, forget shouting and yelling. But that chit of girl, not just shouted and yelled at him, she even crushed his foot with her high heel and that too without reason.

Nature. Bloody nature. For that a few of damn ugly trees, she fought with him. Him,  Ashley Wilson.

Stopping for a moment, he looked at his reflection, observing himself, in the vantage mirror.

No doubt, he had killer eyes and a handsome personality with a charming face that every girl would forget to breath.

But then, what the hell was wrong with that girl? Why didn't his charm effect her? How did she even resist his charismatic personality?

And what was that. Yeah, her warning of not touching.

What the hell man!! His one look was a wish of every girl but that girl pushed him away, tramped his foot, shouted at him and even pointed finger with a warning.

Too much of offenses.

Not normal.

There was surely something wrong with that girl.

"I think she is mad" Ashley said looking at his reflection "yeah she is mad."

Satisfied by his conclusion, Ashley walked out of the room and saw other two busy in eating.

"Am going, you guys come when you're done with your fat appetite." Ashley said arrogantly

He ignored their whisperings followed by laughter which he knew would be about his fight with that stupid girl.

"They have gone mad too" Ashley muttered, opening the door and getting out of the hotel suite.

That's when another door opened right in front of him and his eyes landed at his neighbour.

"Not again" Ashley cursed his fate, looking at his equally infuriated neighbor who happened to be the girl right out of his nightmares.

"What a bad start," Amelia muttered, loud enough for Ashley to hear as she gazed him with contempt and tried to control her temper that was suddenly not so in her control.
