Enchanted Love

Cute rejection



Clara dressed up in a black and yellow suit. She checked the mobile phone for the nth time to see if she got the message or not. She smiled when she got the message. She decided that she would end everything today and would never think about that guy anymore. It’s not at all tough for her to track down his location as she saw her classmate’s brother with Alex. She took her bag and left the home early so that she could sort everything out before walking to the college.

Alex stood up from his seat when he noticed Clara walking towards his side. Is she here for real? He expressed his dimpled smile as he walked towards her side.

“Guess you don’t have any job rather than running behind girls, right?” Clara asked with a little smirk when Alex stood in front of her.

“Jealous?” Alex asked, bending to her height. Damn, her heart reacts to his words.

“Don’t worry, I won’t run behind any girl other than you” he added with a charming smile. Clara rolled her eyes at his words.

“Listen, I am not interested in you nor love. So can you please not disturb me in future?” Clara asked as if she had been rehearsing the dialogue since night. Alex didn’t reply to her instead he just smiled at her nervous-filled face.

Clara didn’t waste even a second to leave the place as she turned her way and walked fast so that there wouldn’t be any more discussions.

“Hey,” he called her softly to which she turned to his side.

“I was wrong” Alex removed his coolers giving his charming stare.

“Wrong about?” Clara was quick to ask him.

“That you are looking like an angel in white. I have just realised that you are cute in every colour and I guess colours don’t matter.” He replied in a serious tone and Clara just went numb with his words.

“Did you even hear what I said a few moments ago?” She asked, crossing her arms. This guy is making her insane.

“No” Alex replied quickly with a little smile as she crossed her arms in a dominating way.

“Don’t blame me. It’s your mistake” Alex shrugged his shoulders casually.

“Can you tell me what mistake I made that you didn’t listen to my words?” Clara asked now in a full pissed off mood.

“I have told you not to use this pink lipstick. So I couldn’t listen to your words as I was busy admiring those lips” Alex didn’t even blink once. Clara was taken aback by his words. How can anyone be so flirtatious as this?

She didn’t want to reply to him as she turned her heels to go away from him so that he wouldn’t notice her red cheeks.

“Careful your way back to college” he yelled as she didn’t bother to turn to his side.

“And see you soon,” he added with a laugh.

“Not even in your dreams” Clara yelled back to his words as his laughter grew louder.

“You can’t imagine what you are doing in my dreams” he knew that he was moving fast but he couldn’t help it. Clara just ran away from the place. It’s very new to her and she can’t handle him or his words. It’s too much for her.

Alex has had everything in his life he wished for. He never had to cry or beg for anything. His parents are gifts for him who never made him feel sad for anything. Now his focus is on only one thing and that is Clara. She is beautiful, cute and whatnot. He wants to capture her heart the same way she is ruling his heart. He doesn’t care about the taunts he is getting from his friends. He knew that his love was not just a mere attraction but a pure feeling.

He didn’t even notice his friends as he was busy dreaming about his future with Clara.

“Guess, he is gone mad” his friends screamed behind him and that’s when Alex looked at their side with a dimpled smile.

“It’s just an infatuation. Don’t fool yourself by naming it, love. Because to love someone, you should know them and at least spend some time with them. But in your case, it’s just an attraction.” Rocky commented and Alex didn’t even hear his words as he didn’t feel like hearing anything against his love. He knows what he is feeling and how he is feeling. He doesn’t need anyone’s opinion in this matter. He knows that he has never felt like this ever before and he is sure that Clara is the girl for him.

Alex’s reaction to Rocky made all his friends laugh at Rocky who pouted being insulted.

“Between, why is he smiling? As far as I know, he just got rejected by the girl. But his reaction is happier than before. We have to consult a doctor soon” Bobby laughed at Alex.

“Enough with your teasing. I have to go home. And guys don’t forget to come earlier tomorrow. You all have to help me with decorations” Alex screamed and zoomed off on his bike.

The clock strikes 5 in the evening and Alex is confused to decide on something. He took his mobile phone and sighed long. He dialled the number with a small smile. The landline number of Clara’s home is not a tough job. But getting her to the call is a tough job. Praying for his fortune, he dialled her number.

His heart accelerated fast as the phone started ringing. He took a deep breath when someone picked up the call.

Clara’s voice made him smile in relief and he cleared his throat before talking.

“Hi, beautiful” he spoke and Clara felt her foot stiffen in her position. She recognised him instantly and how dare he call her on this number?

“How and why did you get my number?” Clara yelled at him and Alex just giggled in response.

“Tomorrow, 5’o clock. Apple restaurant. Don’t be late. And please don’t wear any bright dress. It’s just a party with family and friends. But yeah, I know you are good at all dresses but you can wear something traditional too. I have sent an invitation card to your home too. It will be delivered in some time” Alex didn’t even breathe in between as he spoke in one go. Clara gasped louder.

“Listen, I am not coming to any party. And what is this? Are you out of your mind? Don’t give orders around me” Clara yelled at him with a big frown on her face.

“If you come, I will accept your rejection. I mean. I will never bother you again. Just think before deciding.” Alex’s words made her silent for a little and he hung up the call taking that opportunity. She went blank with his words. She is a hell of confused as to what she should do.

Clara started chanting, Should I go or not? She doesn’t feel like asking anyone. She wants to make decisions alone. Her head starts painting because of continuous pressure. She looked at the clock which struck 4 already. His words about bothering her made entry to her head again and she didn’t waste any time to grab her favourite long gown.

As he already mentioned that it was a family function, she dressed up accordingly. She looked at herself in the mirror and complimented her skills. She looked absolutely like an angel. Even to reject a proposal she needs to be perfect and the guy should rot till the end.Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

Clara entered the restaurant which shone every corner in red and golden. She is just mesmerised by its decorations. She turned to her left side where Alex was already waiting for her. She moves towards him as his smile grows wider and she gets uncomfortable with his hot stares.

“Clara?” Some old man asked her as her eyes shifted to his side. The guy is surely in his 50s but his gestures and appearance do not at all give off any old man vibe. His dimple and his smile looked familiar and Clara started making assumptions.

“Yes, Clara” she introduced herself as she took his blessing instantly.

“Enjoy yourself” The old man left her side with a small pat over her shoulders and Alex reached her side in no second.

Everyone looked at Clara with questioning eyes as they all could sense something between Alex and Clara already.

“Thanks for coming,” Alex smiled at her.

“Don’t forget your promise” Clara directly hinted that she didn’t come here to her wish.

“What promise?” Alex casually shrugged off his shoulders as Clara gasped loudly

“You just came yourself when I called you. How can you expect me not to bother you?” said Alex smirking to which Clara felt her heartbeat in her throat. It’s almost exploding. She just got tricked by him.

“You barely know me and I feel so lucky that you trust me this much. How can I lose this precious gift of mine?” Alex pulled her to his side as he spoke those words. Clara widened her eyes in shock. He is damn right. How can she trust him this easily?
