CHAPTER 17Sara stood under the cherry blossom tree, the chilly atmosphere bringing goosebumps all over her skin, the cool breeze whipped through her curly hair, working its way and successfully making the packed bun look greasly.Becoming frustrated at having to wait for Christian for so long, she wanked of the ribbon and the tight bun fell down her back in a pile of long tresses.***********Christian saw her, he saw the angel of his dreams, she was so pretty under the cherry blossom tree, her hair so long and curly was currently being whipped different ways by the wind.The atmosphere was so cool, he had come late he knew that, he had been held by traffic and had gotten a sunflower and some chocolates (her favorite, as Ariel had told him) on his way to her, to apologise.Revving his bike faster, he got to where she was and was taken aback by what he saw, standing with a short pink cocktail dress, her hair cascading down he
CHAPTER 16"Ariel is this makeup not too much." Sara turned to look at her friend who was staring at her, like she couldn't recognize the face she was seeing."Babe you look stunning, I'm sure when Christian sees you, he wouldn't be able to recognize you any more."

Ariel had answered looking up and raising her hands mockingly in an apologetic gesture.Sara laughed while recalling the moment, now sitting by the garden and waiting for Ariel to meet her, she held t
CHAPTER 14"Hello, good evening Christian."Christian checked his phone screen twice to confirm if it was Sara at the other end of the line, cause he could recognize her voice but not the number."Hello love." he replied, he had been patiently waiting for her call since he sent her back a note he had given Ariel earlier today."Hey, I got your note, Ariel delivered it to me safe and soundly." she said, chuckling silently." Hmmmmmmmn, so how was your day, meanwhile whose number is this, your parents, brother's or Ariel's own?" he asked, he wanted to save the number,so he could call her with this one when her main line didn't go through.She became silent for a little while, he thought if network or service had started fucking them up again."Hello, Sara are you there." he asked quietly."Uhmmmmm, Sorry you were saying.....?" she trailed of again.Something was not right, he had noticed that anytime he men her parents or any
