Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 36
Location: Boston, USA.
Days flew like wind. The bond between Nathan and letty waxed stronger. The duo were always together in canteens, lecture halls, library or relaxation centres round the school. Their friendship was hot potatoe on the lips of gossips, the news spread like wild fire. Some suggest their bond was rooted on platonic grounds. Others were of the opinion that there were strings attached, another group had their ideas completely outside the box.
Nathan himself wasnât sure what he felt. The feeling was strange and unique. Only a word could describe his feelingsâlove!
Heâd never really loved anyone. Heâd limped from being a player to one whoâs allergic to the female species.
Letty, however was erasing his convictions. Heâd cherish every minute theyâd spent together. He found it amazing that he didnât her for sĂ©x, she was a princess in his world and deserved to be treated as such!
The hall ran into streams of noise. The rattlings of papers and chattering of differs pitches got the aura covered. Prof. Bruno just left the hall after minutes of lecturing.
Nathan closed his notepad. Heâd jotted a few points from the lecture. He spent half the period contemplating why Letty didnât show up in class. Unusual it was! Letty wasnât the type to miss lectures. He inserted the notepad in a backpack and exited the hall, in search of her.
today was a memorable day. A day marking the begining of joy at the same time the cradle of doom. It was her birthday annivesary! As the firstborn, her birthdays were always celebrated. Sheâd stopped celebrating it after devil decided to curse her special day.
Her dad died on her birthday. The man was involved in a ghasty motor crash on his way home to celebrate with his family.
Of all 366 days! It was on her birthday he chose to die!
Over the past few years, her mum adviced her to no avail, letty wished she could rub off febuaray 18 from the calender. A day meant to be celebrated had turned dark to a day of mourning.
Letty realised sulking annually would do her no good, she wouldnât party on her birthday either. Sheâd dedicated feb. 18 to praying for unfortunate folks like her.
The lady eased herself of the kneeling position sheâd observed for over 30minutes. She raised her head, using a handkerchief to wipe off the sweat sheâd accumulated on her face and neck.
Nathan heard her standing up. âin Jesus name. Amen!â he concluded his fake prayer in a loud tone.
âNathan?â letty was stunned she didnât envisage the man praying beside her to be Nathan.
âhappy birthday leturahâ Nathan wished with a smile.
Heâd disturbed Jenny to a fault, the latter had no option than to tell him about lettyâs annual tradition.
âthanksâŠhow didâŠ.â
âJenny told me about it. Are you done praying? Shall we go?â
âyesâ letty bluntly replied.
They both walked out of the church and hopped in the car Nathan lent from Elvis. It was dusk, Nathan drove past the female hostel. Letty raised her brows. âiâm okay hereâ
Nathan smiled.
âi have a birthday present for youâ
he stepped on the accelerator, driving at top speed. Letty safely wore her seat belt. What was he up to? What happened to her dad must not repeat itself ooo!!!
âyouâar over speeding!â
Nathan looked at her and smiled. âare you scared?â he slowed down the speed. Letty sighed. She gasped when he stepped on the accelerator again. This time with a swifter speed. She didnât say anything, hoping her silent prayers can save the day.
Nathan pulled over before a dark building. He switched on a torch and urged her down. What a birthday present! A dark building? the guy was out to paint what feb. 18 meant meant to her. That explains his crazy driving. Geez what was he hiding in the building?
More puzzling was the fact that the house wasnât his or his mumâs. She however followed him sheepishly. Heâd succeeded in hypnotising her! Lettyâs thoughts were proved wrong when the lights came to live immediately the stepped in.
âhappy birthday!!!â chorused different voices from behind. Letty was dumbfounded. The only face she could recognize was Nathanâ and Elvisâ.
âhappy birthday Adaâ a feminine voice sang from behind. Jenny walked in, holding a three-stepped cake.
She smiled at Letty. Just then music started playing from the home theatre.
âenjoy your dayâ
âwoaa! Thank you so much. I feel lovedâ
letty screamed.
âyeeaah lets partyâ Jenny ranted.
