Anthony was heading home after overtime work well he also didn't plan that he would head to lake side it's calm and the wind passed him
Blowing his jet black hairs ..
He closed his eyes and was absorbing this atmosphere he was looking like a scenery in painting in bright moon light ... But this calm didn't least long he heard voice there was a moment behind the trees and bushes... He got alert and hide behind the tree if it's an enemy then he must tackle him down .... Just then he was getting ready to attack a girl came out from there .. he frown and looked at the girl carefully...
To his surprise it's Lisa ... He had so many questions running in his mind why is she here in the middle of the night ... Is she not afraid that anybody can harm her ... So many more is she following me but why ....
Anthony what are thinking why would she follow me ... But what makes her to come here ........ But the next thing left him in complete disbelief.....
She run towards lake playing with water ... She is looking like a little fairy .. her small delicate face was really captivating and her smile is really that can will heart of people or men's might fall for her in first sight... He was amused then his eyes diverted to her clothes she is wearing white silk sleeveless gown a little above her knees .. the more he looks at her the he felt Familiar to her as if he knew her for a very long time .. but he saw her second time after the park incident....
Seeing her playing like a kid .a smile came at the corner of his lips ..... He was watching her every moment but who could have thought that this crazy girl would jump in to the lake or worse is that naked ...
He diverted and looked some where else .. and now what he never thought she would do that is didn't not looked at her intentionally right .... Why I'm feeling guilty and even worse a freak I'm peeking on. A girl ... But why isn't there any voice coming from her is drown ... Should I go and check it would not harm if I just make sure she is fine or not ...
He slowly move his head and turned around to see wether she is fine or not here comes she directly pop out from water ...
Well that not he thought her long wet hairs ...
He was completely shocked to even move an inch he cough and looked away ....
"***
After running and playing I felt sweaty so I looked around to see if anyone is here but no one was so I took off my gown and jump into the lake ... With my superpower I dive to the bottom of lake it's dark here that's is some kind of scary so I just swim upward and I pop out of water and take a breath that I don't know for how long I didn't not breath water is clean and it not so cold.. "cough*..
I got alert I put my clothes back .. and looked around ....
"Who is there " my voice echoed " I said come out or I will not be good for you ""..... I warned... I saw moment when a tall figure came out of shadow I looked closer and ....
*BOM* it's a men or not just a random or stranger but Anthony ......
I widden my eyes in surprise but should I say in shock because I can't just describe my feelings right now....
"Oh Noo ." I'm not worrying that he saw me like this but what he will think about me he may think I'm a freak or crazy that just jump in lake and even worse naked .. oh must have saw me .... *" Ahhhhh * ...
" I'm dying ... Here should I cry or laugh at my self " well I was still in my undergarments...
It can be less embarrassing right ......
"*****
I came out and I can tell and see the panic and embarrassment on her face .... Is it me or just she that seems turn into a tomato....
Why can't this get any worse...
He maintain his calm and said ...
"What are you doing here " ......
" Hm? " .let her think that I didn't knew anything why she is in this situation....
Anthony though and continue..
"Why are you all wet ".... He asked as if he didn't knew what happened ......
Lisa made excuse " oh I lost my pendent here it's the only thing left from my parents " well that's true but she didn't lose it at this time she just made it up and Anthony can see that she is right there is indeed a pendent on her neck ... But he didn't asked more ....and stay quiet ...
Lisa put her courage and asked " when did you came here and why are you here " ... In not so loud voice but Anthony had already guessed that she will ask so he also made excuse....
"After work I came here I was sitting there didn't know when I fall asleep then I only heard you voice calling me out so came out" Anthony can't believe himself that he is Laing to her and ...why because he is just protecting her from embarrassment... When did I became so concerned about her ... His thoughts were cut off
Although she just can't believe his words but she also don't want talk about it so she shurgged it off..
" Achooo*
Lisa sneeze and sniff Anthony notice that.... He came forward and in swift motion he put his coat on her shoulders and said ....
"Go home it's not good for you to roam around alone in night ... " ...
On the other hand Lisa heart was beating like crazy when he give him her coat ...
It felt warm... He perfume smell is lingering on his coat and she snuggle into it ..... she didn't feel cold now ... She saw him moving away and leaving she doesn't want to leave him this early they just meet and exchange this warm and gentle gesture of his
So she followed him behind well he was walking slow so that she can caught up ...he didn't intend to leave her there
Lisa wishper...
" Thank you " . He heard her but didn't said any thing and continue walking
.. .... She was walking carelessly and tripped her feet due to sloppy surface .....
" Ahhhhh"... Lisa screamed not so loud but enough for Anthony to hear . He was fast enough
Before she fall on the ground Anthony pulled her waist towards him her face hit his frim chest ....
..and this moment had stopped for both of them ....
It was pin drop silence . .....only rustling of leaves can be heard ......
* **
Lisa heart was already beating fast like drum beating in her chest but she calm down when she heard his heart beat that's is like a rythum to her ears ....

Anthony felt his heart tightened for the first time .he didn't know what is happening but there is an unknown pain he felt that left tears in his eyes .he doesn't know why but he doesn't want to let her go he pulled her more closer ...
How .. why ??? Was the only question that are rising ... No answer of what he is feeling right now ....
