I was sharing my hotel room with Lucy and Mel.
There was only two bed in the room but Mel insisted on living with us as she was not comfortable in sharing the room with the person with whom she went there.
And the person was Jack.
When i came to know that he was accompanying her, i was shocked
.
I felt a little guilty too as Jack was my friend but i didn't offered him.
I didn't know anything about the rest of the people who went there along with us except for that they were living in the same hotel.
He didn't bother me a single time since we reached there.
''Come on Liz stop your thinking. We are going to the beach.'' Mel exclaimed and clapped her hands in excitement.
Isn't she getting extra excited?
''Haven't you gone to any beach before?'' I asked her while picking out my beach dress that was a flowy yellow dotted white knee lenght frock.
''Ofcourse i have..it is just..i haven't went there with you all.'' She said while looking at her reflection in the mirror.
''Now go hurry up!'' She pushed me inside the washroom.
*****
James, Robert, Mel, Stella, Jack and Dave were playing volley ball while Ben, Lucy, Kat and i were sitting on the sand with bare feet. The two security guards were also there but were doing nothing.
I could see James was laughing?
Really?
Could he laugh?
I rubbed both of my eyes with the back of my hand to looked at him.
Whoa! He is really laughing at whatever Dave was telling to them.
I saw Stella put her hands on his shoulder for support as she was laughing continuously. Even Robert was laughing too.
How could they both laugh at the same thing?
Finally Diego came back with the ice-cream carton for us.
We started eating and Diego sat down in between me and Kat.
I was unaware that i was looking at him and Stella until Diego spoke up.
''Nice couple! Aren't they?'' He asked.
I blushed at the thought that he caught me staring at them.
''Umm..of whom are you talking?'' I asked while trying to show that i was not interested.
''James and Stella. They are made for each other.'' I choked on the ice-cream as soon as he completed the sentence.
What?
Is he really implying that they could be a couple....
Or are they already?
''What..do you mean?'' I cleared my throat.
Before he could have said anything i felt my legs getting wet by the ocean water.
Sh*t!
The waves reached to us.
We all stood up to move away when Robert jogged towards us.
''Hey! Why have you all came here when you don't want to enjoy? Diego if you really wanted to share ice-cream with your wife then you should have stayed at home and did the same.'' He said crossing his arms.
I heard the chuckling from Mel and Stella.
''It is not that i don't want to feel the water but Diego is not letting me.'' Kat pouted.
''Oh! Come on. You could atleast be drown upto your knee.'' Robert said.
''Fine.'' Diego said and held her hand to took her inside the water.
''Now it is your turn.'' He smirked at me.
It is not that i was not willing to go inside but i was only giving the company to Kat.
I was about to move when i felt Robert's hand on my waist.
Sh*t!!
''Oh! GOD!! ROBERT LEAVE ME.'' I was squealing at him as he lifted me in a bridal style.
''I swear if i fall...''
**splash**
You got me right. He threw me in the water.
I tried to breath properly as soon as my head came out of the water. I was totally wet. My hair was messed up.
I glared at him and he only laughed.
''What is with that tiny...atom bomb.'' He said gesturing me towards Lucy.
She was standing alone at a distance.
''I don't know.'' I shrugged then my eyes travelled to James who was playing with a ball. Everyone was trying to snatch it from him. They all were under the water upto their waist.
Stella snatched it from him.
For once i saw his eyes travelled towards me but he averted his eyes in an instant.
I don't know why i am feeling..rejected? Or neglected?
He had always created a scene whenever i talked to any man and here when Robert lifted me up and also when he kissed my hand, he didn't react.
But why?
Why the sudden change?
Why am i not liking this change?
I heard a sound of splash near me and saw Lucy's head came up.
Robert was laughing hard after throwing her too.
Suddenly lucy started panicking.
Sh*t! She was crying.
I tried to walked towards her.
''Hey! Are you alright?'' I asked her and she hugged me.
''I...i...don't know how to swim...and..i am scared of water...'' she said in between hiccups.
She was shivering too.
''What happened?'' Robert asked while feeling concerned.
''She has hydrophobia.'' I explained to him.
''Oh.. I am sorry Miss....whatever.'' he said while coming towards us.
''Well..lets make your fear go away.'' He smirked and before i realised what was happening, i saw Lucy was thrown into water then he was held her waist.
''ST...STOP..STOP!!'' She was yelling but he picked her up and went further into the shore.
''No..no..no.. please Liza save me.'' She was shouting again and again.
Then he let her down slowly but she was not willing to do it.
''Lucy let your legs down.'' Robert said to her.
''No..no..no.''
''If you will not then i am going to throw you again.''
Without saying anything Lucy let her legs down in the water but she was clutching his shoulder tightly. He held her waist and let her stand on her own. More than half of her body was covered in water.
''See. There is nothing to fear. You should enjoy the natural things because one cannot make these thing by any technology.'' He held her waist tightly then jumped into the water taking her with him.
After coming out of the water he was laughing hard while Lucy threw her slippers at him.
I was standing there and was smiling like a stupid when someone pat me on my shoulder.
I turned around to see Jack.
For once i thought it was James.
''Come play with us.'' He said.
''No..i don't want..'' i looked at them who were playing with the ball including him.
''Oh come on Liz! You didn't offer me to come along with you instead you took Lucy atleast play with me.''
Whoa!!
''Are you taunting me?'' I narrowed my eyes at him. He laughed.
''No. I am only making you feel guilty so that you will join the game.'' He winked at me.
''Fine.'' I rolled my eyes at him.
*******
We started playing while changing our partners time to time.
This time i became his partner...i meant to say game partner.
Stella and Diego were against us.
Let me tell you that i am the worst player among them.
It was really funny game as we were falling in the water more than we were able to held the ball. That crazy game was much more better than the volley ball.
My half body was covered in water while James was covered only upto his mid thigh.
Diego threw the ball at us and we tried to catch it but in the process James fell down on me and i fell down in the water with my face first.
God!! I can't breath..
I felt James stood up then helped me to stood up.
I tried to breath hard. I wiped the excess water from my face and then looked at him.
There...he is back..the same James whom i knew..
He was looking at me intensely. His expression was serious. He fisted his hands and then...went out of the water.
Is he really ignoring me?
''Hey don't you want to play?'' Stella asked him.
''No.''
******
It was evening and we have changed into our party dress as we were going to one of them.
I saw him with Stella.
Why is he always with her?
Are they really a couple?
But...they don't behave like one.
We reached to our destination. We needed to be in pair or else we were not allowed to enter the pub. That was the rule.
So we made the pair.
James and...Stella.
Diego and Kat.
Jack and Mel.
Dave and Ben.
I and Robert.
Lucy and Mason
And the two security guards said to them that they were gay.
It was hilarious because they were too nervous to told the lie.
*****
We were dancing with our partners. It was not that we couldn't dance with anyone else but everyone preferred to dance with their partners even..James.
I was dancing with Robert but my eyes were glued to James and Stella.
I saw his eyes travelled towards us. I averted my eyes from him and looked on the other side.
''Excuse me..'' i said to Robert and went to sat down with Kat.
''Already tired of dancing?'' She asked me.
''I am not very fond of dancing.'' I said and sat next to her.
I was struggling to not to looked at them but my eyes went to them again. They were dancing freely. There was no awkwardness between them.
''They are very close to each other since childhood.'' I heard Kat said.
I averted my eyes from their direction and took the glass of water to drink.
''They are soon getting married.''
WHAT?
I choked on my drink.
How could they...how could he...
Tears welled up in my eyes.
''Are you alright?'' She asked me.
''Yeah..fine..''
She doesn't know that the tears are not due to the choking but...but...
I don't know what to say!
''Excuse me. I need the washroom.''
I entered the washroom and tears started falling from my eyes.
Why are you crying Liz?
You are not his girlfriend...he could marry anyone whom he wants..
But...why..
Why did he played with me?
Why do he always looked at me like that...
I started remembering from our first encounter when i thought he was a gangster. Then our first kiss...my first kiss in my whole life..his behaviour towards me...his jealousy...his fear of my resignation...his touch...his demand..his possessiveness...
What was all that?
''I want you. That is it.''
Was it only that?
He only wanted me?
But he never stopped showing his attraction towards me...it will be almost eight months since i am working here...
But he still wants me...
You are not made to love Liz. Why you always expect things which are never going to happen...he hated you from the first day...he didn't kissed you, he only claimed your lips..he had hurt you from the beginning..even he tried to force himself on you...then why are you crying? Why are you crying if he is getting married?
It is your life you have to live it alone without depending on someone.
I was done. Done with him. How could he cheat Stella. How could he use me when he was already engaged to her.
I wiped out my tears and went outside. I walked towards the bar.
I kept myself pure and clean till now...since twenty six years i have waited.... waited for one person who will be mine and i will be only his..
But he made me feel like my wait was over...but no.. now i think God forgot to made my soulmate..
I lost my first kiss to him...
I experienced the feeling of the closeness with a man for the first time...
God! I was so stupid that i started thinking that..there was something between us...
Someone cleared his throat and sat on the stool beside me.
I turned my head to looked at the person..
Sh*t! My head is spinning..
My vision became clear after a minute or two.
''How much you drank?'' Robert asked smirking.
''Umm...actually this is the first one..and this is my first time of drinking alcohol.'' I explained.
''Whoa!! Are you serious?''
I only nodded at his question.
''Someone is not in a good mood.'' He chuckled.
''No..that is not true.'' I tried to lie.
''Really? Then dance with me?'' He said raising his brows.
God!! How i want to break the glass on his head.
He extended his hand towards and i accepted it because...
Firstly, i want to show him that i am not in a bad mood.
Secondly, i want to convince myself that i am not in a bad mood.
Am i thinking correct? Or i am not?
Am i drunk?
Whatever!
We were dancing while my eyes roamed everywhere to find him but he was nowhere and even Stella was not there.
''Are you looking for someone?'' Robert asked.
''No..''
The song ended after a few minutes.
''Want a drink?'' He said chuckling.
Yeah! Why not?
''Sure.''
I didn't knew how much i was drinking that evening.
The floor was moving continuously. I tried to stood up but i fell down.
But Robert caught me on time.
''There are rest rooms on the next floor. Do you want to take some rest there?''
Only the word ''rest'' was registered in my brain.
I nodded a yes then i felt him putting my hands on his shoulder and helping me to walk upstairs.
The door opened to a room and we entered.
He helped me to lay down on a bed. He put my head on a pillow then i felt him....stucking the hair on the back of my ears and out of my face.
I opened my eyes to looked at him. He smiled and then my eyes were closed.
******
I could hear the noises from outside of my room.
What the...
I held my head with both of my hands.
Someone please stop this yelling...
I heard the opening of a door.
I tried to looked at the person but it was not clear. I was sure he was a man by his suit.
''Why are you here?'' He asked.
His voice.. i know this voice...
James...
What is he asking me?
''Why are you here?'' He asked again.
Why?
''Rest.'' I was able to whisper the word.
He started walking towards me.
''Liza...'' i didn't heard anything after that.
