《ORPHANAGE GIRL》Chapter 4
Advertisement
I came home immediately after the scene in restaurant. Freya was already asleep but she left some food for me in the kitchen.
And now here I'm lying on my bed staring at the ceiling. It is almost midnight and I'm not able to sleep. I'm tossing around but Every time I close my eyes, those piercing blue eyes is all I can see.
One minute he was so furious and the next he was calm. And why he kept looking at me when he spoke?
Ughh! What the hell?
Pulling the pillow above my head and groaned loudly.
I have to work tomorrow and here I'm not able to sleep. Let's try again.
I closed my eyes slowly hoping this time I would definitely sleep.
His jet back hair, and it looks- ohhhh shut up.
I sat up on my bed with my hands on my head. Seriously? Like I have just met him once, okay twice but just in a span of one day.
I have never acted like this before. I always dozed off as soon as in hit the bed. But I don't know what's wrong today.
I push my legs off my bed and walked towards kitchen. While walking there my eyes landed on the wall clock it read, 1:23 in the morning. I rubbed my head and open the fridge. I took out the milk carton and pour it on a bowl.
When I was small and had trouble in sleeping, Mrs. Williams used to give me this warm milk, she says it helps us to ease our mind and makes us relax.
I smiled as I remember the memory. When the milk was warm enough to drink. I pour it in a glass and took it with me to my room.
I stood near the window and watched the sky filled with millions of stars while sipping my warm milk. Cricket chirping sound and cool breeze immediately calmed me down.

As I took the last sip, I placed the glass on side table and jumped on my bed.
I soon doze off thinking about the stars and dark skies.
I was getting ready for work when I heard Freya voice,
"Byeee Oli, have a nice day"
I walked to the staircase to bid her bye but she was already gone.
I went back to my room, took one last look of myself and exited my room. I don't feel like eating alone so I grabbed an apple and walk out of the door. I checked twice if the door is locked properly or not.
I plugged my earphones in my phone and entered the elevator. "Clarity" by Zedd started playing and I bobbed my head little with the music.
I walked out the elevator and started walking towards the restaurant. I saw the orphanage on the way but I don't have time to visit today. I might visit them in the evening.
I opened the cafe's door and as usual the familiar aroma of coffee and cupcakes filled my nostril. Our restaurant have all varieties of food that's why it is quite famous around this street. I have been working in this cafe from last one and a half year but still every time I smell this aroma of coffee I feel relaxed and rejuvenated.
I tied the apron around me while putting my hair in a messy bun. I started taking orders and serving them.
It was 7 when I finally sat down for the first time in today. There were many customers that I didn't even get a chance to rest for like a second. I massage my feet with my fingers as it was aching so badly.
I looked out the restaurant and see the sun is about to set and the sky is turning dark. I should better hurry up because I have to stop at the orphanage.

While I was on my way towards the orphanage, I also packed some cupcakes that I made for the kids.
As I reached the gate, I saw a big hoarding on the gate. Ohh I forgot! The charity event is in 10 days. Mrs. Williams told me about it but it might have slipped through my mind.
I walked inside and saw the park lights are on but kids are not there. They might be in the common hall as it is almost dinner time. I went inside and saw kids sitting in proper order.
As they saw me approaching they come running towards me.
"Aww, I missed you too guys" I hugged them one by one. I picked Lily in my arms and kissed her cheeks
"How is your wound?" I asked her sweetly.
Then I heard someone clearing their throat.
I turned around to face the person still carrying Lily in my arms.
I saw Mrs. Williams with a man but he's standing a bit far talking on phone.
I placed Lily down while ruffling her hair. I straighten myself and looked back to Mrs. Williams, that's when the Man in expensive suit turned around.
When I fully saw his face, my eyes literally popped out.
It was the same Mr. Stranger. AGAIN
