The Cursed Human

“Mother!”

“What happened, sweetie?”

“Where are we going?”

Nine year old asked her mother with tinge of confusion dancing in her words. Her mother didn’t replied simply but led out a dramatic sigh before looking down at her daughter.

“It’s because… we don’t want monsters to chase our lovely Sarah,” her mother ruffled her hairs and a smile crawled on the child’s face.

“Am I lovely?” Sarah exclaimed as she jumped up and down in excitement.

The woman’s eyes moisturised as she crouched down and embrace the little girl.

“You’re lovely, my dear. How I wished your future would be secured and full of happiness,” Sarah didn’t understand the meaning behind her mother’s words but didn’t said anything.

“I’ll be back in an hour, okay? Lock the door and don’t let anyone in,” she said and Sarah nodded.

Sarah woke up with intense headache as her brain threatened to escaped the skull. Her breathing was not normal. She pulled the duvet off her and brought her legs at the edge of bed so that they were dangling. As she positioned her foot on the ground, her whole world start spinning. She lost her balance and fell on the ground.

She stayed like this for few moments until the dizziness was gone and tried to stand up again. This time she was successful. She took cautious and gentle steps towards the bathroom and stood in front of sink while looking in the mirror in front of her. She didn’t even realised that her clothes were changed. Her mind drifted back to dream she had. Same dream for eleven years. If she would’ve known that, that was the last time she would see her mother than she would’ve never let her go.

‘It must be Nancy’ she thought looking down at her clothes.

She washed her face and looked through cabinet for asprin or any pain killer. She found asprin and went to her room slowly and found water bottle near bed before gulping down two pills with water. She sat at the edge of bed holding her head. She laid on bed and closed her eyes and let the sleep consume her, again.

She woke up to the sound of utensils striking each other. She opened her eyes and felt the pain vanished. She sat up and stretched her arms over her head before getting up from bed and made her way towards the sound. A huge smile crossed her face on watching the person she loved the most. She tip toed towards the person and she hugged him from behind.

“Hi”. She whispered.

He held her hands that were resting on his chest and turned around to face her. Leaning down slightly, he kissed her cheek.

“How are you feeling, love?” He asked.

“I am fine, now that you are here”. She said smiling brightly. Her heart fluttered as his hazel eyes looked down at her with passion and love. Spending large fraction of her life without someone caring for her made her vulnerable to his love.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“When did you come, Mathew?” She asked giggling as he wrapped his arms around her.

Mathew bend down a little till they were face to face and pecked her on lips, lingering his peck longer than usual.

“Just an hour ago. Thought I should pay you a visit but when I came here you were sleeping. So, I thought I should make something for you.” He said smacking an arm around her waist and pulling her closer. She blushed by this sudden action. She rested her head on his chest and wrapped her arms around his neck. This comfort and warmth, that’s all she needed right now.

“I have something for you”. Mathew’s voice brought her out of her own world. She looked up at him and saw him grinning ear to ear.

“What is it?” She asked clueless. He pinched her nose with his other hand and watch her nose turn red.

She giggled again and pulled him down towards her face and kissed him on his cheek.

Mathew put his head in crock of her neck and kissed there sloppily. She unknowingly moaned and closed her eyes due to sudden pleasure. He kissed her neck sensually and moved towards her collarbone making her squirm in his hold. He sucked her skin hard making her gasped. ‘this will surely leave mark’ she thought. He moved towards her cleavage and sucked there too making his claim. Thats what he loved about her, her body, her moans, her heart, her everything, the way she reacted to his touch. He gulped as he realized that he had to tell her something. Even though he would love to continue what he was doing but he got something way more important to tell her.

“Go get ready, we are going out for dinner.” He kissed her neck one last time and pulled away. She nodded and ran towards her room making Mathew laugh out loud.

She went to bathroom and looked in mirror. She was a complete mess. Her face was flushed and there were bite marks on her neck. She filled the tub with warm water and get in.

After fifteen minutes, she was bathed and ready to get ready. She go to her closet and looked through her clothes. ‘what should I wear?’ she mumbled.

She decided to wear her red dress that she bought on her last birthday but never wore it. After getting dressed and done with little bit of makeup and hairs, she looked herself in mirror.

She saw a beautiful women in front of her. She was wearing red satin body fitting dress that reached just above her knees. It was strappy with showing cleavage and was backless. Her eyes were void of any makeup but only thick coat of mascara and her lips were painted in peach gloss. Her hairs were straight reaching her hips. And lastly she decided to wear black stilettos. Happy with her look , she decided to go to living room. Before going she take her silver coloured purse and exited the bedroom.

As she reached living room, she saw Mathew sitting on her baby pink couch waiting for her. She fake coughed to get his attention. He turned his head and his breath got hitched.

Her smoldering chestnut doe like eyes looked at him with love and want. His eyes shamelessly examined her when they landed on her body. The dress fitted her like a glove, enhancing her every curve and valley. Her breasts were larger than usual during to braid she was wearing underneath.

He slowly got up from couch and scanned her whole body with his eyes making her shiver under his gaze.

‘How can someone look so innocent yet sexy at the same time’. He thought and made his way towards her.

Even though she was wearing heels, he still towered over her.

“You are looking beautiful.” he said. She looked down unable to meet his gaze.

“Thank you.” she wispered shyly. Her face was completely red by this time.

Mathew extended his hand. She put her hand in his and looked up at him and saw him smiling.

“Lets go.” He said and they both exited her apartment.

They made their way towards his car. He opened the door for her and closed the door when she was inside. She was very excited for their date. It had been long since they were on date because of Mathew’s busy schedule. He circled the car and get in driver’s seat and started the car. Once they were out on road he decide to broke comfortable silence.

“I have a surprise for you” he said with out looking at her. She looked at him and nodded her head. “Okay” she said smiling. She glanced at him again and sighed. Mathew was good looking man with height of 6’0. He had the hazel eyes co. okimentaing his hairs. He was not muscular but not too much lean.

She still remember when they first met. He was wearing his black tuxedo. He was looking so good at that time that she forgets to breathe.

Mathew park his car in parking lot of restaurant. She looked outside and saw the fancy looking restaurant covered with bright lights and candles and walked. She sighed knowing that she could never afford eating here.

Mathew opened the door for her and gave her his hand. She took his hand and said a small thank you.

They entered the restaurant hand in hand. She was so happy and engrossed in thinking about how good and sweet Mathew was that she didn’t realised that she was being watched.
