Destined to be together

Sun was shining brightly outside. A huge amount of sun rays could enter the room lighting up the room warmly through the window. It didnot seem to be any ordinary morning. Something was different.

Adalia opened her eyes, frowning in a sudden headache. She shouldn't have drunken that liquid last night. She pressed her fingers against her forehead. She opened her eyes gradually... What the hell! Where is she?

'It seems to be hotel room. What am I doing here ?' She thought being quite dumbfounded. Suddenly she felt someone beside her in the bed, a skin to skin touch.?What?........

O hell! She was naked sleeping with......??

. "Steve?"

She mumbled remembering what happend last night. Did they?

'No, no, no.. This can't be' She could remember some fragile pictures, they were so ambiguous she couldn't sober herself up. She was greatly shocked. why? why did brother Steve do that to her. She told him shouting she can't do this. but why he didn't listen to her?

Steve,, Steve is the man whom she had loved since her childhood. Since she gained her conscience even before her puberty got started. The man whom she had respected and given almost all of her free times serving him. . Yes, she was his sort of servant.

Back to the point..

Adaila put more pressure to her brain..Gradually more fragmented images started making sense.

Last evening she came to a big restaurant as a waitress to do her part time job.

She was serving soft drinks to the guests..Suddenly she was pushed by someone..She gained her balance and apologised to the person..Looking up she saw a big shot was standing in front of her in a black suit covering his big fat belly... His bald scalp was shinning under the dim light around the place....He was chewing on something and having big puffs of Derby.. One could say from his leery appearances, it wouldn't be wise to get entangled with him...Adalia was leaving suddenly the man stopped her.. He looked at her smirkingly " Hey bunny girl! I need ya' to do something for me.. "

He took another big puff and blew out it on her face..He took out a card and placed it in her tray,

"Take the money and put this powder in one of your drinks and deliver it to the man standing there in green suit beside the pool... "

Adalia was stupefied. 'Is this man out of his mind? '

Before she could refuse him the man started mixing the powder in her drinks and said" If you don't do it I'm gonna frame ya' accusing you have tried to seduce me and get ya outta' your job and humiliate ya' so badly that ya' would regret your birth ".... He took another puff,, so relaxed...Adalia took a step back and said, "

Excuse me,Sir. You can't threat me like that.. " Mixing up the powder in the drink he said, "I'll be watching you", then the the man vanished into thin air.

Adalia kept standing there puzzled.What was going on..She shouldn't had come here today to get entangled in such a mess..That bald man must be related to a

powerful company.. She looked at her serving tray .. There were 3 cups of drinks, one mixed with God knows what..and a bank card type of stuff placed beside the drinks. She didn't bother looking what that is..

Anyway, she is not going to do such despicable thing.Should she tell this to the manager? What she should do now....?

When she looked over the man whom that man wanted her to drug, she was shocked beyond imagination.

A man in an elegant green suit standing there, talking to some people with a cigarette between his fingers.....His good facial features would draw attraction of many man and woman..

He just didn't bother looking at anyone except the people he is talking to..

That was Steve Evans...

'Brother Steve'

She murmured.........

'Brother Steve must have come here today for his

business purpose'

'But why that man wanted me to drug him. Does he have any personal grudges against him? It must be something like that... It's something very random among the business societies... ..'

She saw that bald man walking over Steve and shaking hands with him. She felt a sharp gaze on herself piercing her soul through her clothes...The man was looking at her, there were threats,dangers....

She looked timidly at him.....

She was suddenly put in a dilemma..

'God,help me.'

She couldn't do that...She wouldn't drug him..No matter what...She was determined

Next morning back in the hotel room..

Adalia was scared out of her wits

"Crap"!

She cursed in silence while searching for her clothes. She was scared that Steve might get up so her actions were haste but soft. Gathering the clothes from the ground she put them like a thief while glancing at the man time to time who was sleeping peacefully under the quilt.

He seemed to be disturbed!

.....?

Adalia suddenly realised the sun rays were directly hitting his closed eyes.

'Oh, it must be disturbing him.'

Adalia put on her clothes clumsily, her mind in a mess...........

She pulled the curtains down giving the room a dim vibe...

Sigh........

She should leave now...

She turned to the door and unlocked it. Before stepping out, she felt the urge to have one last glance at him.She looked at him holding the door knob...

'Brother Steve'.....

Steve Evans, the man beyond anybody's reach.. Looking at him Adalia felt tears welling up in her eyes....

'Why God?'....

'That was just a sick joke, wasn't it?'

Where Steve was an emperor, she was just an ordinary maid..He was just too far beyond her touch..

Steve's complexions were very calm.. Looking at his calm face which seemed to be portraited by some famous artist, she felt heart wrenching pain engulfing her whole entity..

Though they were in the same room, precisely, they've spent the night together..Yet for her, it seemed like he was

from another part of the world.. Where she can never reach...He was just too far from her...Too far...She smiled miserably...

She wiped her tears and came out of the room ....

Life was going to take her to another new Journey....

Adalia was walking aimlessly on the street.

She was almost knocked out by a vehicle..

"Hey, you blind. Get the hell outta my truck."

She didnt hear him clearly though the man was scolding her loudly. She kept looking at the man as if she had been hypnotized.....She stopped walking

and sat on the ground near an old mail box leaning over her body...She was emerged in her thoughts..

How she was going to face everyone after what had happened..What if everyone knows this all.?.. How she was going to face her mother..

Her mother, Meta who would always say to her," you know what, you are my sweetest child, Addy..... Promise Mumma that you are never gonna disappoint me. When I'll take you to master's house you will be the most obedient, okay?"

"Yes,Mumma" Adalia would nod in a very serious manner She was five years old then...When her father cheated on Evans family and ran away with ten millon of dollars.. She and her poor mother were destined to rot behind the prison cell but Mrs.Evans took them in the Evans mansion as their house maid and told the mother and daughter to give a life time service...

Finding no other choice Meta had to agree,.

She and Adalia had been working in their house since then..It's been 14 years...

Yes, she was a maid's daughter..

That's why what had happened it shouldn't have happened...

As she grew up she bloomed like a flower.. It would always give Meta a headache to take Adaila with her anywhere.. Because of her excessive cuteness she would be snatched away by people, they would pinch her on the cheeks, kiss her...

Steve would like to play with her a lot when they were kids.

But one day Steve said," You are so beautiful, Addy.

When I'll grow up, we will get married"..

He said it in front of Mr. and Mrs. Evans..

Mrs.Evans was a little surprised but she laughed caressing his son's head.... But George, Mr.Evans was not happy at all.. He was never going yo let his precious son marry a simple girl like Adaila..

Though Steve was their adopted child.....

After trying a lot Mr. and Mrs.Evans didn't see the face of a child.... A very desired child.. Their day would pass in agony and in hope of any light that would appear someday from somewhere....

It was an incident of one day when George was sitting inside his car parked outside an Orphanage.... He saw a very cute little boy was playing outside the building... The boy was crawling on the grass and playing with puzzles... His eyes softened at that sight........

He couldn't resist the urge to come out of the car and hold the boy in his arms..The boy had fair skin that was smooth like cotton... Small wavy black hair and grey blue eyes enhanced his cuteness more.. The boy started giggling in his arms .. His small hands were rubbing the dirts against George's costly customised suit contaminating its crystal white colour....

That innocent big eyes accompanied with the toothless giggle melted his heart... He thought even if he would give all his possessions and properties to the boy it wouldn't be worth of that smile...

He remembered his dear wife,Martha....

That day George adopted the child. That child was Steve...Steve Evans,the heir of the Steve family..Though not biologically related but not less than that...

George had always given the best thing to his son.. THE BEST.. Doesn't matter whether It's a toothbrush or a car..

So, the best girl will be chosen as his bride..

After the day George said he would marry Adalia, none of them got the opportunity to play with each other ever again..George had strictly forbidden Meta to keep Adalia away from Steve and he also managed to get Steve busy in studies.. It was rare for them to see each others faces....Time passed.. Both of them grew up in their worlds.....

Now Evans was the owner of one of the biggest and most successful companies of the city, sleeping in a luxurious hotel room where Adalia was weeping sitting beside a street ..

Two stars from different universe... Can they ever be together? Won't there be a big explosion that would destroy everything?

Adalia got up and started heading home.....
