Wing Of Change
Chapter 8

Aria lay coiled up in this king size bed that was just so extra soft and comfortable, enveloping her in this warm bubble and luring her senses into a much deeper slumber.

Speak of serenity.

She snuggled closer into the warm duvet wrapped around her and signed in comfort before she quickly dozed off again.

Fifteen minutes later, she was startled by a sudden movement beside her and was jolted a little but not enough to wake up as she only rolled over on her side and continued to sleep peacefully.

Jezz…

It wasn’t long before she felt something poking her from behind and not withstanding, she scooted towards the edge and just kept sleeping_not willing herself to be bothered at all by whatever the heck that was.

She was sure the world was still fast asleep for her to be awake. After all, she has got no job to rush off to.

She felt another disturbance and thought it wise to check it out because she was beginning to feel annoyed even in her sleep but that was after she did a mental debate within herself not to open her eyes or she might loose her precious sleep.

So she began to tap around looking for whatever it was so she could just yank it off her bed and continue her sleep in peace.

Aria continued to tap around until her fingers came in contact with what felt like a firm surface but not in a solid way. It felt warm and weird, not to mention it was breathing as well.

Her hand lingered around it for a while still with her eyes closed. Still holding on to her object of interest, she began to squeeze gently trying to figure out what it could be without doing as much as prying her eyes open.

The room was still dark and the light were obviously turned off so getting up to turn on the light would be another task she wasn’t willing to endure that morning.

All the mental picture that was popping into her mind didn’t quite fit the description of the mysterious object in contact with her hand.

Still feeling lazy to figure it out, she continued to walk her way upward until she settled on what felt like a facial hair and she paused. Pulling slightly at it_she heard a g***n followed by her hand being beaten away.

What the_?

Prying her eyes open, she reached over to turn on her lamp stand and found it missing from the usual spot causing her to jump off the bed in panic before she hurried over to the wall socket to switch it on.

She didn’t make it very far before she landed face first in a puddle of clothes and with her feet tangled up around the bedsheets and leaving her in a sprawled mess on the floor.

Ouch!

After the light bulb was mysteriously turned on did she realized the estranged scream threatening to make her deaf was actually coming from her very own mouth as she sat staring back at a visibly angry and naked Frank.

“What_what are you doing in my room and why are you standing there naked and staring at me like that” Aria had yelled at a not very impressed Frank.

“I’m not the only one naked here just in case you haven’t noticed and this is my room not yours. So quit yelling at me like a crazy person” He had warned before turning around towards the bed and paused.

“Do you need a hand getting up or you are just going to keep seating on the floor with that look on your face”

“I don’t care alright? Just put some clothes on or whatever but don’t just stand there like_like that please”

Frank only scoffed at her comment before proceeding to pick up his blue trouser pant lying around on the side cushion and pulled it up his waist while Aria just sat there, struggling not to stare at his direction.

Once he was done, he stood at a distance staring at her direction with kneaded eyebrow before sighing in annoyance.

“Are you seriously going to act this way after all we had last night?”

“After last night you say? I don’t even remember what last night feels like. How did I even end up here for God sake! How in the world did this happen”

“Well, a lot happened last night obviously and I don’t get why you are reacting this way because it’s crazy!”

Aria had struggled back on her feet at this point and had began to pick up her things without looking at his direction.

Just one look at that man and she would loose her mind.

Maybe this was a bad dream and none of it was actually happening. She simply couldn’t have ended up in bed with him. The last time she checked, she was with Lizzy and not expecting to wake up with that man doing God knows what!

A single tears made it down her cheeks but she brushed it off with the back of her hand before turning to face him again.

“Did we?_did we do it?” Aria voice was barely audible as she stood staring at him hoping he could say no and put her mind at ease but she very much doubt it given the look in his eyes.

He had a look of revenge and almost satisfaction as he looked at her from the head down to her feet before replying.

“What do you think happened miss Davis. You are a very smart woman so you should know right?”

Aria was too angry at this point knowing exactly what those words meant. The thought of what could have went down was enough to get her head spinning towards all known direction.

Her stomach began to grumble uncomfortably and she knew another minute in that room would also mean puking all over his expensive shit. That would be enough payback but she wasn’t about to stoop to his level and take revenge on him.

And without wasting another second, she ran towards where she ran towards where she figured the bathroom could be and ran towards it and it was indeed and sank down against it before she began to empty her stomach into the toilet.

Her puke reek of alcohol. Aftermath of drinking too much alcohol. She reached for some tissue and wiped her mouth clean with it, making sure not to peep at her reflection on the mirror hanging on the wall because she sure as hell knew she’d be looking a mess if not as hallow as she feels.

She hurried out of the restroom once she was finally dressed and came face to face with Frank leaning against the door way with folded arms.

He pushed himself off the frame when he saw that she was leaving. “Where are you going? It’s barely 7am. You should stay for breakfast”

“No thanks” Aria had responded under her breath. It was funny to her to think that he was even offering her breakfast and even crazy that he thought she would accept.

She picked up her purse and remaining stuffs and began to walk towards the door before he held her back by the forearm. “Will I see you later?”

“Never again will you see me in your life again. Just forget this day and last night ever happened!”

She shrugged his hand off and hurried out the door.
