Chapter 46 - Inevitable Confrontation (2) (1/2)
There, in front of me, was standing a beautiful young woman. Dressed in a simple beige blouse that was neatly tucked in her brown pencil skirt, complemented with a pair of beige heels and a light brown sling bag dr.a.p.ed over her shoulder, she looked so stunning. Not to mention her fair complexion. Her skin was to die for, the kind of how all girls wanted; milky white to the point it almost looked pale. Her wavy hair was pinned on one side and the other side dr.a.p.ed over her shoulder. Her face...
Hhh, she was simply too beautiful, if not for the suspicious shadow hovering over her whole body.
I realized I was seeing things. The sky was still bright enough for me to see her clearly. Even though she was standing under the shadow of the wall, I could clearly see the shadow hiding behind her back.
When she noticed me looking at her, she smiled softly. But, instead of giving me a friendly image of herself, she gave me a creepy impression; as if the one who was smiling was not her.
This person is dangerous, I should not get close to her.
That was what I thought. Keeping that in my mind, I continued walking towards my dorm. But, before I could pass her, she called my name, successfully stopping me from moving forward.
”Are you Jane? Jane Harris?” She called out softly. Damn, even her voice sounded good.
Pulling the corners of my lips to create a smile, I turned around and faced her. ”Yes?”
She came out from the shadow, approaching me and my eyebrows twitched in reflex. ”My name is Amanda, Rizal's wife.” She held out her hand as she introduced herself.
Damn, I didn't see that coming.
”Ah, hi.” Awkwardly, I reached out and shook her hand. Just for a while, because I felt a familiar chilly sensation from her. The shadow behind her back also flickered, as if reacting to my touch. ”Do you need something?” I asked, shifting the curiosity in my mind.
”Do you have time? I want to talk to you.” She asked politely.
”Sure.” I nodded.
”Should we go somewhere?”
”There's a good cafe nearby. How about we go there?” I suggested. My dorm was nearer, but there was no way I would bring this suspicious creature near my dorm.
