The Traps of Black Swan

At Luxembourg, 

Aarvi and Aaron had gone a good distance away from the main village. There were hardly any homes but farmlands as they closed to mountains in lush green. 

The fresh air and amazing view set her knees straight and stood in the jeep enjoying the mild sun rays kissing her skin and the cool breeze blowing her hair. 

What Aarvi loved was, there were very few to no visitors there, as the place was still considered to be a hidden gem. 

Aaron controlled the car's speed, letting her enjoy it. The feeling of going on the same road when he was a kid and now with Aarvi, felt completely different and pleasing.

Aarvi suddenly turned to him and asked, "Ronron, have you been on road trips with your friends?"

Aaron glanced at her as he shook his head. He had spent his prime age studying and waiting to return to her side so he never really enjoyed how she, Shawn, and Dax enjoyed their three years of life. "Medical camps counted?" He asked because he had been to a lot of remote places during his studies in country S.

"Nooo… My dear husband. That's work." 

Aarvi had guessed it. She sat down on the shotgun seat, thinking how she could make the day more memorable for Aaron. He was entirely different from Shawn and Dax who would pull her in their venture and join her in the fun. 

Aarvi snapped her finger from right to left in front of her face as she said, "I will show you how we three have fun." Aaron knew who those three were.

Before his response, Aarvi opened the music playlist on her mobile and connected it to the car music system. A high note beats song started playing on max volume.

'Selfish, be selfish today

why always listen to the world

Listen to yourself sometimes…'

Aarvi went closer to him and kissed his cheek with a loud smacking kiss. Before he could react, she skipped out of the slow-moving car giving him a mini heart attack but just to see her flawlessly land and run in front of the car.

"Selfish, be selfish today

why always listen to the world

Listen to yourself sometimes…" Aarvi sang along, moving her hips, giving freedom to her hands to move on the music, stepping back, looking at Aaron.

His shock turned to surprise before a bright smile adorned his face when she sang with the song, dancing to the beats, leading the way front.

"Even something goes away wrong

even if your heart is lost away

don't be afraid, keep walking like this

Let your uproar echoes from here to there"

Aaron chuckled seeing her expressions, running around energetically, happily, freely like a bird in the bright sky.

  "Sun is up 

with two shots of intoxication

Let's forget all the paths of home

Sun is up

with two shots of intoxication

Forget all the pain of your world."

Aarvi knew Aaron wasn't the type to join in her craziness to dance on the street. So she neither asked nor expected him to join her. She continued to entertain him while she enjoyed her rare, treasurable carefree time with him.

"Ask me for anything

I can give you everything

Oh ooo oo

Ask me for anything

I can give you everything

Oh ooo oo" 

She ran over to the small stream and sat on a rock, "None knows us

this is told by moments of life…" 

She sprinkled the water at him when the car came in front of her, "Selfishly make wishes

Let's live moments

Blue, Blue, Sky is blue now…"

Leaping to the ground, she jogged at slow car speed next to him, without letting his lips settle. "Sun is up

with two shots of intoxication

Let's forget all the paths of home…"

She jumped and balanced on the footstep of the jeep causing him to wrap his arm quickly, in another shock. He chuckled with his right hand on the steering wheel. 

He was kind of happy, he wasn't there in her three years of freedom and she learned to be crazy and bold instead of following him around.

Aarvi didn't hold for support since he was holding her and continued, "No walk,

Let's fly in the sky now

Forget where to go now…" Kissing his cheek, Aarvi jumped down, "Destination be everywhere

Away from the world

Let's make a world for ourselves…"

Soon Aaron found himself humming the song with her, forgetting the things that didn't need to disturb them at the moment or what was going on in the cities...

At Wells villa,

Dax had already received the Wells villa address from his secretary so he smoothly drove to their destination, speaking nothing other than rarely humming to Tia's words, if not ignoring.

He could feel how nervous Tia was. He didn't put effort to ease her up. He got out of the car and noticed Doctor Wells, upstairs with her daughter. He understood they were waiting for them.

He went around the car and opened the shotgun seat door. He could see her legs shaking while she tried to control, "Dax, could we postpone this? I am not ready to face them." Her jaw shook hence she clenched them, pleadingly looking at Dax. 

She didn't go with Dax because her father was caught on television. She agreed because of Dax but she felt her stomach tightly knot, refusing to free her from fear.

Dax didn't reveal any expression. He repeated what he did at the birthday banquet. He lowered, wrapped his arm securely around her waist, and smoothly pulled her out.

Tia bit her lips as her eyes filled up. She didn't know how to make him talk like normal, and find his forgiveness. A part of her knew he cared for her hence he wanted to remove the fear. However, his silence was implying otherwise. As though, he doesn't care how she feels. She didn't know how long they were going to hurt each other.

She lowered and heard as she stood on her feet to avoid showing or being weak in front of Dax. She knew this wasn't the time to be weak and he might misunderstand as she was acting for his forgiveness.

Dax, who had noticed her eyes turn red, unaware, found his hand on the back of her head. Breathing out, he spoke to keep her less feared, "I will be with you."

He held her hand and went towards the door. Tia stared at him, forgetting her parents for a moment, hoping everything would be alright with Dax instead of her parents. She had lived far and long so she didn't wish to live like a daughter of Wells.

Dax's mobile vibrated in his pocket. He fished out and saw it was from his secretary. After clearing things at the Wells family, he needs to go to the Administration office to save the Kelly family, just to push them in the deep well.

Hence the call was important. He turned to Tia who seemed less afraid because he was leading her. He wanted her to fight fear instead of taking him as a shield and hiding behind him. He knew she was brave but falling weak due to her parents.

His hands grazed her hair away as he held the sides of her face, he sounded firm, "You will go inside first. Don't be scared. Try to have a conversation. I will come to you, I won't let them bully you."

He expected her to be unwilling, she pursed her lips. Taking a long breath, she nodded. She tried to say something but ended up saying, "Okay."

"Okay?"

"I will be strong."

Dax nodded before sending her inside. He quickly dialed his secretary's number to listen to the status and go inside.

Tia chewed her lips, hesitatingly stepping inside. This wasn't the villa they were staying in before, so she wasn't sure how it was inside and who was there.

As soon as she crossed the small lobby and entered the drawing-room, a pretty girl smiled brightly near her. "Aunt Tia…" Then she bowed in greeting for the first meeting after she was able to speak and recognize people.

Tia used to watch her from afar. Seeing her from near, she couldn't stop herself from kneeling and drawing her to embrace. "Little Peanut…" A tear rolled out, fulfilling her one of the negligible dreams.

The trio watched the two girls. Mrs. Wells was crying silently, in happiness for finally seeing her daughter home. Doctor Wells and her husband had a soft smile watching them.

"Dad?" He asked.

Doctor Wells whispered back, "He is in the backyard, I hope he doesn't come inside soon."
