Deal

Early morning on Saturday, I went towards the bridge above the Bagmati river which was big due to the flood. It was the rainy season and people were watching it from their houses. I guess they were enjoying it but I was not. The thought of jumping in it came on my mind. I was tired of living this life where life was fucking me every day and guess what I was still a virgin. The thing about life is that it fucks even the virgins without taking their virginity.

I came down and slowly taking a slow step I went towards the river thinking about life and why was I so frustrated. I always made the wrong decision. The people I knew were either getting a job or married or have become parents and I was still here not being able to make the right decisions, Just wondering where life would take me. I had to hear so many things at home about how I don't even have a job. My parents hated me. They treated me like some kind of cursed child. I was fed up. People were shouting at me not to go near the edge of the river. However, without thinking and looking anywhere, I jumped.

When my eyes opened, I was in bed. Sunlight was falling directly on my face. I looked around the room, it was beautiful. It was then I noticed that no one was around and that this wasn't my own.

"Where the hell am I?" I asked myself.

Then the door clicked open and a beautiful girl stepped inside. she was so stunning like every girl wants to be. she had long wavy hair. She was tall and had this perfect body, which every girl dreams to have. I felt like a black, ugly thing in front of a beautiful shiny diamond. She was perfect.

"Am I in heaven?" I thought to myself, or maybe I think I am cause she looked like an angel. She placed the tray on the table.

"You are awake," she said with the slight happiness as if I was her someone.

I slowly got up.

"Where am... I?" I blurt out.

"You are in my house. That was so stupid of you..... I have brought some food, eat it." she said and left.

So I am in a stranger's house? I can't believe I even failed to die like I failed everything. After eating the food, I looked outside the window. There was a beautiful garden and a man was sitting on the bench, his back facing me. I wanted to see his face and like my wish was granted, he looked up but his look was cold and his eyes were black. I became afraid and hurriedly went towards the bed. Why were his eyes black? Is he some kind of devil? Holly Molly, I am not in heaven. I am in hell. I rushed towards the front of the mirror, afraid I had black eyes too but nope, I didn't.

The whole day, I was in that room feeling bored. I thought of going down to the garden and so I did. I went and sat on the bench, not on the same spot where he sat. I was quite afraid, what if I made a stupid decision coming down here. However, I was glad to discover that he was nowhere to be seen. The garden was so beautiful. I looked at every flower and sat there in peace. When it was about to turn dark, I returned to the house to find no one there. The house was beautiful too. I don't know why, but there were guards and some maids. They greeted me, every time they saw me.

I went straight to the room and someone was already here. He was the same guy I saw in the garden who had terrifying black eyes. I stood at the doorway for a while before I slowly went inside. He didn't even bother to say hello so I sat on the bed. My heart was beating fast. He was looking outside the window. I cleared my throat and I would be lying if I said I wasn't afraid. He looked at me and then at juice he had kept on the table. He seemed to be related to the girl who had brought me some food earlier. Thankfully, his eyes weren't fully black. Not making any noise, I slowly got up and went towards the bathroom. When I was about to open the door, I heard him say,

"Don't you ever do this to me again." I stood stunned. Did he say that to me? His voice was calm, authoritative yet soothing. I don't know why but I wanted to hear that voice again. 

"His voice would make anyone wet," I thought. shit, shit, why did I say that? 

I turned to find an empty room, he was already gone. What type of person is he? He didn't even ask me if I was good. Not that I care of but he could have said sorry for terrifying me. The whole time his words were ringing in my ears.

"Don't you ever do that to me again. don't you ever do that to me again." 

The same girl from the morning came to call me saying dinner was ready.

"Let's go," she said. I followed her looking around and admiring the house. It was really beautiful.

"By the way. My name is Rima," she said but I didn't reply.

Food was already on the table but no one was there. We sat and later the devil came. He sat in front of me. While he wasn't looking at me, I looked at him. Rima was focused on her food. He had medium curly hair and had this cute face. I guess only two of them lived here with some maids. Even though he scared me before and was rude. I wanted to thank both of them.

"Rima," I said 

She looked at me and I could feel his eyes on me.

"Do you need something?" she asked.

I shook my head.

"Ah-um, I wanted to thank you u-m b.both for everything and I think I should leave now. You k.nw......" I was not even finished and he abruptly got up and left. What the hell was his problem? I looked at the leaving figure and then at Rima. He didn't even look at me once.

"I think, it's time we talk," she said and I just stared at her beautiful eyes waiting for her to explain everything.

What is that she really wants to talk about? Oh, maybe money. Yeah, I am sure they want me to pay them for saving me which I didn't want in the first place but I don't have any.
