Enchanted Love

Alex looked at all as if he was very firm in his decision. Frank and Jenny had no clue why he was acting this way. Everything is going as per his wish. Frank gets somewhat annoyed with his son’s sudden drama. He glared at Alex but Alex looked away instantly.

“Stop your drama and come,” Frank replied and grabbed Alex. He realized that his son was not happy with that condition and all. But arguing over the thing is not the right thing at this time. We can talk it out even afterward.

“No” Alex replied again like an adamant kid. Clara wanted to smash his head for sure. Her dad is not at all happy with his actions. And she could sense it very well.

“What happened, Alex?” Jenny asked her son.

“Like you, all have decided something as if taking any parliament decisions, may I have at least permission to talk to Clara?” Alex asked gritting his teeth at his mom showing his disapproval towards their decision. Frank sighed in relief that his son was not arguing for anything. Maybe he judged wrongly about his son.

“I guess you all won’t restrict me for this?” Alex stated this as a fact. He glared at his dad, at last, to show that he was mainly angry with him. Frank gulped visibly thinking about its consequences.

Ron smiled at Alex. He looked too cute like a kid demanding chocolates. Ron can’t deny the fact that he liked this family instantly and he even came to know about them from his friend too who spotted them at the party.

“5 minutes” Ron replied in a stern voice and looked at his watch. Alex widened his eyes and grabbed Clara instantly to not waste any more time.

He entered the left side room grabbing her. Clara closed her eyes in reflex when he pinned her to the corner wall.

“Do you want to say anything to me?” Alex asked calmly, expecting her to say those three words directly to him.

“My pops will come here. Just stay away” She gently pushed him but he was adamant about not leaving there anytime soon.

“I remember you telling your dad which you should have told me, isn’t it?” Alex asked her to bend her face which sent a shiver to her whole body. She started breathing fast and tried to not show her nervousness.

“I don’t even know your full name and you want to hear those precious words from me?” Clara asked, keeping her expression serious. She doesn’t want to move fast in their relationship. She wants to see if they love each other or if is it just attraction.

“So don’t you like me?” Alex asked instantly, not liking the doubt in her words.

“Don’t try this trick with me,” Clara replied instantly.

“Should we tell our parents that you are not sure of this? Maybe we shouldn’t waste our time.” Alex replied nonchalantly and turned to leave the place. She didn’t think twice about grabbing him the same way he did earlier. She pulled him by his collar suddenly.

“I don’t know what I feel, neither do I know about this love and all. But” she paused and looked at those chocolate brownies.

“But something special is there between us and it’s beautiful.” She ended as she turned away instantly. Everything is new to her. She never shies away like this. But she couldn’t meet his eyes after confessing her thoughts. Alex smiled looking at the most beautiful girl in his life. He loved each and everything about her. Her sassiness looks cute when she gets shy for the same.

“I didn’t expect you to be shy like this. Like a normal girl.” He replied, bending to see her face. She looked away again, not able to look at him.

“I should know more about you.” He whispered near her ears making her all red with his proximity.

“Even now you are guessing wrong about me.” She replied, giving her a charming smile.

“I am not easy to understand.” With that, she suddenly kissed his cheeks making him go insane with her actions. Did he expect this from her? Of course not at all.

“Be ready to handle the bundle full of craziness” she added with a smirk showing that he doesn’t know even one percent about her at all.

“If this is your craziness, I would love to know about it more” he replied and smiled broadly.

“Five minutes over” Ron screamed, breaking their cute moment. Alex rolled his eyes and came outside with a large pout making everyone laugh at him.

“I will surely give you something,” Alex said to Ron.

“A grand brand new watch and will take its cell out so that time doesn’t move in it” he added, making everyone laugh at his comment. Clara again lowered her lids with his words. He is too shameless.

Clara came and got blessings from Frank and Jenny who were very happy to get a doll-like daughter for their family.

“Whatever happens, you will always be my daughter” Frank kept his hand over her head. He felt some instant relation with her and Clara also could relate to it. She felt as if her pops changed his face whenever she looked at Frank.

“We will be in the same team whenever anything happens. Deal?” Jenny asked Clara like a kid. Bella smiled at them. They are like a blessing to her daughter and she doesn’t want to waste time and wants her daughter to marry this family soon.

“Once again, sorry to disturb you all at this time” Jenny apologised again and everyone left the home.

****

Clara is still in shock that she did kiss him at the peak moment. She shouldn’t have done that. But everything was right with him. She could sense that she was getting spoilt by his influence. She turned and looked at her pops. She ran to his side and hugged him instantly.

“I am sorry, pops.” She mumbled again while he caressed her hair. Bella starts leaving the place while both Clara and Ron look at her side and get sad.

Bella ran to the kitchen when she heard a loud cracking noise. She glared at Clara and Ron who were gulping visibly.

“We just thought of preparing some sweets for you,” Ron explained like a kid.

“I don’t think any sweet would need this rat-killing powder?” Bella asked to clean the floor where it’s split down.

“Did you both try to kill me with this?” She asked, gasping loudly as Clara ran to her side.

“Pops might have thought like that. But how can I let that happen to you?” Clara asked, pouting her lips as Ron widened his eyes with her acting. That was not the plan.

“Bella, this girl. Don’t believe her words. She left the home a few hours ago. That too without even hearing you” Ron put the entire blame on Clara.

“Mom, don’t listen to his words. He is your husband and still, he didn’t listen to your words. You were crying but Pop didn’t pay any heed to it” Clara glared at her pops.

“Do you think that by pointing out my mistakes, you can get away with this and Bella would forgive you?” Ron asked, crossing his arms. Bella didn’t hear them as she was busy cleaning everything which they messed up a few minutes ago.

“So you want her to forgive you?” She asked back, crossing her arms.

“You both can play inside. My head is blasting with your useless words” Bella shouted and left for her room making both sigh tiredly.

*****

“Mom let’s divorce him” Alex yelled as they all came inside.

“I would love to. But what is the reason?” Jenny asked Frank to widen his eyes at his wife and son. What are they talking about?

“Who asked you to agree to this silly condition?” Alex asked, crossing his arms.

“Alex, I know it’s hard for you. But” Jenny asked him to sit first. She is very clear as to why this decision is needed.

“In our generation, we were not even allowed to see our partner before marrying. We had struggled a lot to first know about them. Even me and your dad had a lot of disagreements and fights in the first few years of our marriage.” Jenny explained and looked at her husband who agreed to her.

“But now it’s not like that. You can choose your girl. But we need to see if you both are firm in your decision or not. These months are just a matter of time. You have a full life ahead to spend with her.” Jenny caresses his cheeks. Alex kept his head over her shoulders with a pout.

“But I won’t talk to your husband” Alex declared as Jenny laughed at Frank’s expression.

“I can support you in this decision. He needs a punishment for hiding this from me.” Jenny laughed with his son while Frank hung his head low.

“No dinner tomorrow also” Jenny declared. Frank looked at his son who was too annoyed to even pity his state.
