High School: Way to Forever

Chapter 14: Are you lonely?

Anna finished her work and went home. Locking the door behind her, she took a deep breath. Many things were evolving in her mind, but decided to keep them aside for some time.

'Leave them, Anna, focus on your work!' with this in her mind, she put all the thoughts back to her mind.

Sitting in front of her laptop, her eyes were glued to his screen. Opening it, she logged into her website.

**FRoX ONLINE**

FroX- Anyone there?

NoX- Nox reporting from countryY. The line is secure.

FroX- NoX, contact Mr.Li and ask him it's time to return our favor on him. I'm sending you some codes, decode them as quickly and you will get to know what you have to do then.

NoX- Done! Any other command?

FroX- No.

NoX- FRO, can I ask you something?

FroX- Hmm.

NoX- Can't you come here?

FroX- No.

Nox- Why?

**FroX OFFLINE**

She closed her laptop and went towards her window.

Her eyes showed different emotions. Many things have happened but she kept quiet because in her mind it was better not to think about them anymore. That was her past but it was still haunting her lie before.

Craving for ice cream she went downstairs to find her mother in the kitchen.

"Mom do we have Ice cream?" Ann asked in a lazy voice.

"No baby. You want me to go and buy one for you?" Marrie looked at Anna with her suspicious eyes but for now, An behaved as if she did not notice.

"No need. I will go buy it myself." Anna took her shoes as she heard her mom's voice from behind.

"Okay but safely."

She went to a nearby store and bought chocolate ice cream.

She came outside and started eating her ice cream.

"You know, eating ice cream all alone is considered that person is very lonely." She heard one voice and she knew who it was.

Alex's perfect face came in front of her eyes. His eyes first lanced at the ice cream in her hand, while then his eyes shifted back to her face.

"What are you doing here?" asked Anna

"Wanted to buy some Maggie packet." Replied Alex.

"A person as cold as you are also interested in eating something like Maggie, Nice"

Anna was talking to him but without looking at him. She was now comfortable with the way they communicated and she felt relaxed around him.

"Are you feeling lonely?'' asked Alex again, shifting back to the main topic.

"None of your business."

"It might be not my business but now as we are a team it is." Replied Alex with a smile which annoyed Anna.

She finished her ice cream and stared at Alex's face and said,

"Alex, why are you even trying to come close to me? I'm a simple girl not like the girls who throw themselves on you. Why are you even trying to show that we are close enough for me to share everything with you.?" Clearly stated Anna.

She can't anymore be like this, a simple girl who is so obedient that everyone can do whatever they want with her. She needs to explore more.

She NOW wants to live her life to her fullest. And her first step was to clearly know what Alex is trying to do.
