Chapter 160: Meeting Lily again.
Chapter 160: Meeting Lily again.
I was sleeping peacefully when I felt someone tap my shoulders. I let out a groan as I slowly opened my eyes to see that it was Tanya who was waking me up.
“What happened?” I asked her.
“We are about to arrive,” she replied with a smile on her face while her eyes were fixed on me.
I shook my head and looked out of the window to see that the place was descending. I could see the large skyscrapers of the city.
After we left the mountains, forces arranged a private airplane for us. To think that one call from Alexandra could arrange a special plane. She really has a hold in the forces.
I sat up straight and turned to face Alexandra, who was staring out the window, lost in thought.
A smile formed on my face as I asked, “What are you thinking?”
Her body quivered a little as she turned to face me. “Nothing. to think I’d be leaving the facility. I hadn’t considered it before. I assumed I would spend most of my life in this place. It seems surreal to me.”
My brows were arched when I heard her words, “Are you in the forces. They could send you anywhere, right?”
But she shook her head. “I am not actively taking part in day-to-day affairs of the forces. It was at my request that I was transferred here. But to think that I would meet you in this place, I think it is the destiny,”
Again Destiny? I don’t know, but I got the goosebumps when I heard that word. Leave it, I don’t want to think about that.
My gaze was drawn towards the window to see that plane was about to land and after a while, it landed.
Just as I stepped out of the place, the sudden breeze greeted me. Unconsciously, I took a deep breath, and many memories flashed in my mind.
After arriving at the facility, this was the first city I saw. Olivia was the one who brought me here. To think how much time has passed since that day. It seems to be unrealistic.
“What are you thinking again?” Tanya stood by my side and looked at me.
“This place holds a lot of memories for me. It was the first city I arrived in after my evolution. You know, when I saw those gigantic buildings and floating cars at the time, I was greeted with an unbelievable sight. But now it’s time to leave.”
“That’s true, but when you join the forces. You could visit this place wherever you want,” she replied as she held my hands.
I nodded, but suddenly, Alexandra came from behind. “It’s time to go. I have to finish the formalities quickly and leave this place.”
I frowned when I heard her words, “Why are you in a hurry?”
She shook her head, “I have the order from the headquarters. They want you to report by tomorrow,”
“Why?” I was stunned when I heard her.
“Even I don’t know,” she replied as he looked at me.
My gaze was fixed on her for a while before I nodded and said, “Fine.”
As soon as we exited the airport, a special car was arranged for us and we started our journey towards the facility. Entire-time my eyes were fixed on the window to see that the crowded roads and buildings.
“Why are you thinking so much?” Tanya’s voice reached my ears again.
I shook my head and didn’t reply. What should I say to her? When I first saw this city, I thought that I have arrived on the sets of some Hollywood movies. Everything seemed unreal to me. I was really dumbfounded when I saw these buildings and the city. When I was on earth, who would have thought that this type of city exists in the universe. I took a deep breath to calm my mind. There are many things which I haven’t seen. A new world is waiting for me. This earth is just a stop, that’s all. But this place would forever be etched into my heart.
After a while, I saw the same buildings of the facility. The car stopped in front of the big building and we all stepped out.
But the moment I stepped out, the sight of a few men waiting for us greeted me. My gaze was drawn to a young man in the middle whose eyes were fixed on Tanya, while a smile was plastered on his face.
I glanced at Tanya to see that she had an aloof and cold expression on her face as she stared at those men.
My lips curled into a smile, and I looked back at those men. The man in the middle stepped forward and saluted to Alexandra.
“Welcome Back,” He stood in front of Alexandra and said while glancing at Tanya from time to time. Even though he was glancing at her. I didn’t even feel an ounce of jealously. Tanya is mine and nobody could deny that. If someone tries to snatch her away from me. I would kill him, that’s all.
“I didn’t expect that you would wait for my arrival. Anyway, how are you, Damien?”
So his name was Damien. To be honest, he looked quite okay, but cannot be compared to me. There’s a difference between Heaven and Hell, between me and him. I could feel his jealousy when he saw me. I think he doesn’t know about me.
“It’s my honor to receive you,” He replied proudly and glanced at Tanya again. But his excitement dimmed down as he saw the cold face of Tanya, who went inside.
My gaze followed her to see that Lily stood up from the desk and started talking to Tanya.
I shook my head slightly and went inside without even caring about this man. When I join forces, I would definitely be in a higher position than this man. At that time, he would also salute me. Anyway, these small fries are not worth my attention.
As I went inside, I could see some gazes were fixed on me, but I didn’t mind. Lily was rooted to the spot when she saw me. The last time she saw me I was just an evolved monkey, but now I have changed a lot.
“Alan?” she stuttered as she looked at me.
I smile and nodded. “It’s me.” To be honest, this girl was quite naïve. We even had an agreement to go on a date, but unfortunately, I would not be fulfilled now.
She hurriedly came and stood before me. My gaze was drawn towards her dazed eyes as she caressed my face with her soft hands.
“You have changed a lot. I could see that your second evolution is successful. To think that you would grow this fast, I didn’t expect that.” Her voice reached my ears.
“What I could say. It was all written in destiny,” I should borrow this word. It removes the apprehensions.
Sometimes I feel that this world is quite strange. To think that these people believe in destiny so much that they couldn’t tolerate if anytime doubt about destiny. The best example was Alexandra and Tanya. They reminded me many times not to talk ill about destiny.
Is there anyone in this world who received the power of destiny? There are many things in this world which I still don’t know. But suddenly, Eve’s voice resounded in my mind.
“There would be no one in this world who has the Power of Destiny. Destiny is Supreme and only those GODS could hold that Power,”
To be honest, I was surprised when I heard her words. Since last night, she hasn’t even spoken a word to me. As if she was quite angry. And as expected, her voice resounded in my mind again.
“Don’t think too much. I am nothing but a system. So what if I have gained the intelligence? I am still a system to you. You don’t have to worry about me this much.”
My brows were arched when I heard her words. She sounds like a jealous girlfriend who has a lot of complaints about me. But this time I was at the fault. When I had a good time with Tanya and Alexandra, I forgot about her.
“What happened?”
But suddenly, Lily’s voice jolted me awake. I was so engrossed in thinking about Eve that I forgot that I was standing in front of these two beautiful women. My gaze was drawn to Lily, who was looking at me curiously.
“Nothing. I was just thinking that our promised date is pending, but I could not fulfill that promise.” I said, and a sigh escaped my lips.
But I was that a smile spread on her face when she heard my words. “I already know that, and don’t fret. We would still fulfil our promise in the future. I think that it was destiny that don’t want to separate us,”
My brows furrowed when I heard her words.
“What do you mean?” I asked.
“I am also getting transferred back to the headquarters.” She said as she patted my cheeks.
