" Why are you acting like you are innocent?" chap 41

Alessandra immediately apologized which made Jim widen his eyes in surprise. Whatever, his daughter had apologized and saved himself from shame. "It’s Okay!" Esther replied with a smile and Jim nodded. Esther quickly got out from the suffocating room and joined the other staffs. After her work in DELIGHT she walked to Jonathan’s house to take care of him. Linda and Ledvic was now doing okay and they again started their bickering. Esther patiently heard whatever nonsense Linda said and she knew that there was a fox inside the sheep outfit of Ledvic and she always turned her guards on. Returning back , she just kicked small stones and pebbles and walked slowly to her home. But then she heard a kind of sound behind her making her security system turned on. She found nothing and she was little scared. She turned back frequently and her head was then hit on a large wall. "Ouch" she rubbed her sore spot and raised her head only to see a pair of dark chocolate eyes roaming around her face. She gulped and then bowed quickly saying a sorry and then start to run. He shook his head in disbelief and thought whether he had a monster like form seeing her so scared of him. Esther was already tired and stopped, by the time she inhale some air Zackary reached to her and grabbed her hands. Esther was scared as there was no one around her even if she want to scream for help. And she still remembers his harsh words which he said in the morning. Moreover Esther always panicks if she is surrounded by men not because something happened to her ,It actually become a habit. "Please leave my hand... I’ll stay away from you...and you too..!" Esther said and Zackary stood there still with his poker face. He pulled her close making her face in front of his. Esther’s heart started beating heavily and she is struggled so much. " Why are you acting like you are innocent? Like you have not experienced this kind of things? Why do you always bothering me? What did you do to me...??? tell me...!!!" Zackary whispered and placed his forehead on her’s closing his eyes. "Please...(hiccups) leave me..." Esther cried and hearing her cries he opened his eyes and saw her tiny nose been reddish in colour. For him that looked so cute. His heart urged him to kiss her nose and he moved close making her step back. "I’m sorry..., I won’t do anything...and I hadn’t done anything..you got the wrong person Uncle..."Esther sobbed. "Huh? Uncle??" Zackary was brought back to his right mind and he immediately left her hands and she quickly ran away. Actually he was really disturbed by Esther’s sudden appearing in his dreams.He was informed that she was returning back to her home and thought to watch her from distance. But then he saw her frightened as a cat ran through the bush making some sound. Author: hubby Hemingson
