Alyssa slowly opened her blurry eyes feeling great pain piercing feel inside her head. She held it tight trying to relieve herself of the horrible pain she was feeling, but it just wouldn't stop. Getting a clearer view of the room, Alyssa immediately threw herself up from the extra-large coaxy bed when she realized the room wasn't looking anything like hers, at the same time, her eyes roamed through her body just in case she could feel anything weird.
Alyssa looked up at the ceiling still bearing the headache and trying to remember just exactly what happened to her and how the hell she got there. She could have sworn he wasn't real, but just an image of him that she had created. Even when her heart told her otherwise, she still fought hard not to believe it.
Thinking back, she tried to figure out how she ended up in a hotel. Usually, in movies, it would only be natural to have a man beside you in a situation like that, but she had woken up alone, without the presence of a man laying close to her.
The thought that a stranger would have slept with her and maybe probably leave her before she could have woken up suddenly crept deep inside her head, making the headache she was trying hard to suppress increase greatly. She immediately used her hands to cover her chest while trying to stop herself from going on creating such an image.
' this is all your fault, it's all your fault you fucking devilish, handsome'
* Tempting man*
Alyssa swallowed the rest of her words and remained silent for about 2 minutes, still trying hard to recall what the hell could have happened to her or just a little bit of memory of how she left the bar and got here all by herself.
The only event that was clear to her was the initial stage of her drinking, and of course, she could recall that she had imagined him sitting so close to her. But again, that was only an imagination and it wasn't even real.
* Least let me hold your hands, maybe only then can I stop thinking about you*
When the full meaning of this word she had said to her image of him, Alyssa suddenly found it hard to breathe for a moment. She heaved deeply on recalling that he wasn't real and only an imagination she created, but still she could feel a whole army of ants were crawling on her skin and it made her shiver greatly.
Tired of thinking and trying to remember, she staggered towards the bathroom to get herself cleaned up from the awful ricks of alcohol.
" Damn it! You ain't helping" Alyssa yelled turning off the warm water that passed through the shower. Realizing that it wasn't helping her forget about all that happened, she decided to turn on the cold water instead.
Though this was something which she hated the most and had a great reaction to her skin, but she wanted to stop thinking about him too. Even with the urge of wanting to forget him, Alyssa still quietly prayed to at least meet him one more time.
A life which she had given up on and left everything of her property to her aunt, she wanted to properly make use of the remaining time she had left and to her, it felt like she needed to go look for another man.
Alyssa had never for once thought that she would go crazy over a guy one day, especially not one who did something insecure, a job that would put her in harm's way.
With a white robe Alyssa walked out of the bathroom and slowly sat down on the bed, suddenly when her mind became totally blank, she began laughing so loud using her left hand to hold her stomach.
She paused and raised her cloth and used her other hand to slightly press her nose to prevent her from perceiving the awful odor, an odor she never wanted to perceive for the rest of her life again.
' just how much did I drink?'. She questioned herself and threw the cloth far away from where she was sitting.
Of course, she had absolutely nothing to wear, and worst of all, a complete stranger had paid for the room she was comfortably laying on...... For all she knows, maybe in a few minutes, she might be kicked out.
Her handbag and credit cards were all in her car, and she couldn't probably go out like that to go get them.
Alyssa immediately got distracted from her thoughts when she heard someone knocking on her door, she tried lifting herself, but her legs failed her by suddenly growing weak.
' h..hold..hold on, I'll be out in a minute' she said loud enough and took in a deep breath trying to take control of her legs.
When Alyssa had gotten to the door, she peeped at the hole and when she had seen a young lady in a white shirt, she touched the doorknob and turned it making it produce just a little sound before she finally opened it only wide enough to her to stick her head out.
The young lady bowed her head slightly and raised it back, putting on a good smile.
' Here, I was told to bring this to you once it's 11:00 am '. Her voice sounded calm and sweet and Alyssa could swear that she was about to hug her Immediately she uttered such words.
Alyssa stared at the outfit and gladly collected it knowing that the lady had just saved her life and when the lady turned to leave she suddenly called her back.
" Sorry excuse me, who told you to bring such to me?". Alyssa asked, her eyes filled with curiosity and partially anxiety.
" He never mentioned your name, but we were told and paid handsomely to serve you better till you leave".
Alyssa's face suddenly flushed red hearing such words. Oh Lord, just when she thought she had no one in the whole world to care for her, then suddenly a guy does this for her? Can her life get any better from here?
" Really? Did he leave anything, anything I can use to contact him and thank him?" Alyssa asked making it so visible to the lady that she was not only happy but also curious to know the sweet gentleman who had done this.
'No,..... If that's all, I would like to take my leave now. Please do hold on for at least 30 minutes, your meal will be served soon '. The lady bowed again after releasing a sweet smile and walked away in the most mannered way.
Alyssa immediately closed the door and placed the blue dress on the bed admiring every bit of it as she stared engrossed in her own thoughts.
' And here my handsome devil was, calling me ugly, I received something this beautiful from a kind stranger ' Alyssa said and giggled using her touch to draw traces on the cloth.
