The Kidnapped Bride

Chapter 309 - Curiosity Into Love...!

"But why are you so reluctant to do what I'm asking, Frick?" Javier can't help but ask but in return, all he got was silence.

Frick rotated his head in the direction of the teacher who taught them. But Javier knew that this wasn't the seriousness towards the classes, just a pattern to ignore him.

"Frick..I'm asking you something. Tell me, brother, why is this wrong?!" There was a slight annoyance in his speech when Javier urged to learn why his batchmate was not helping him.

The constant gazes of Javier made Frick uncomfortable. The amount of energy he used to focus on his class was entirely classing.

In his mind, he had cursed Javier millions of times already. However, this wasn't the end, especially when Javier used his leg to disturb Frick.

At last, when his patience waved off, he turned his head to face Javier with absolute fruitiness. "Why are you so fascinated to tag with a girl? Especially when she is from nowhere else but from Smith's land?"

"Interest." was all that Javier said but Frick found it lewd.

"If she is merely your interest, keep your interest in line, Javier. She isn't any playtoy. If Smiths gets any hint about us bullying their land's girl, a big fight can be pulled out." Frick's voice contained a warning, a threat. However it made no sense to Javier, nor did he wish to learn about the age-old sourness between the two states.

He shrugged his shoulders, to reply in the plainest tone he ever used, "She is a girl, and in this university, there aren't thousands of girls … who will report about us bullying her to Smiths?"

"If you are forgetting then there might not ve a single girl in this university from Smiths land but, there are tons of boys from the same place. For instance, if someone drops this news to others, we are absolutely doomed!"

"Then let us be doomed!'' Javier didn't feel alarmed, unlike Frick who was already finding this scenario to be a disadvantage. He observed how much care Javier showed, that to all of the sudden.

It wasn't any coincidence, but the clear fact lay in front of him which was hard to ignore. "Then you are most welcome to be doomed but don't drag me into this. I wish to graduate from here without any war or any involvement with irrelevant people."

This was the last statement of Frick before he changed the direction of his face back to the class. The playful smirk wasn't anywhere to be seen. Moreover, a deep frown had a curve on his face which wasn't liked by Javier.

'He is overreacting…' Javier didn't let those words slip from his mouth. He too shifted his eyes back to his book but his mind wandered in the girl's dorm only.

The first time, he was undergoing something of a distant urge to learn about an innocent girl. Someone caught his eyes, his peculiar interest.

Was it good? Possibly no, Javier immediately shook his head at the realization.

Soon after, the class ended when Frick got up without waiting for his friend. Javier understood, his friend is analyzed and somewhat angry over his actions.

Stepping out of the classroom, he saw Frick walking in the opposite direction with one girl without uttering a single word. His gaze never left his back but seeing him so focused, made Ryan's eyes twist.

After attending his own classes, he appeared near them when he noted the bitter expression of Javier. "You seem irked by someone."

"Is asking about that girl wrong by my side?" Subconsciously, these words slid out of his mouth when Ryan shook his head. "It isn't but we are concerned that you might attach yourself with someone you can't have. One heartbreak…has the power to change you so much, Javier. We don't want you to have another."

At this point, Javier shifted his eyes from Frick's back to Ryan. "HEART? You mean the one in teenage?"

Receiving a nod from Ryan made Javier laugh, "It wasn't heartbreak. And who said I'm falling for her? No, I'm not. I'm just...curious."

"This curiosity can develop into something else as well," Ryan answered, with confidence in his eyes that he understood Javier's emotions better than the man can himself.

At this point, Ryan knew that his words might not make any sense to Javier. This man hasn't ever fallen in love. Moreover, he doesn't have any idea what love might be. Telling him about this is like putting yourself underwater without safety.

"Javier…" Seeing the man in a daze, Ryan called his name, "Stop pestering Frick for something like this. You should not fall for the girl and Frick also wishes best for you."

There was no reply from Javier's side, but a simple glaze carried thousands of unspoken words. Ryan stared at Javier, with his eyes narrowed, trying to understand what was going on in the man's mind.

However, when the realization hit him,? Ryan immediately shook his head. "Don't..even thin.."

"You are in the same year as her. Why don't you just give me.." Javier's words were left in the middle when Ryan vigorously shook his head in this idea, "She is your fascination. Go ahead with your interest, do not indulge me in this."

Javier's frown depended on when he noted that his other friend also declined help. Although, there was no perfect answer to why he wanted to know about the girl.

Yet there is no answer to deny that he lungs to learn about each detail.

As if, he wants to keep an eye over each action, regardless of its importance.

With no answer from either side, they kept on looking in the corridors of the university. There wasn't any exchange of words anymore, but Ryan could understand that the man beside him was in deep turmoil.

And at last, he can't wait to see him. Finally, opened his mouth with an intent to ease things, "Alright, why are also much wondering about things?"

"Just..thinking about any other plan.." as you guys have already taken a step back to help me. Javier let the second half reside in his own mouth. Neither did Ryan feel bad but there was a frozen look on Javier's face which made Ryan feel slight discomfort.

A chuckle left his lips when he gave an advice, "Your bad that you are her one year senior. Anyways, if you are so interested in her, why don't you just fail. What will you get in return? Brother Charles' anger?"

"I guess you can handle that well...that way, we both will be in the same year! hahaha…."? Ryan laughed with his hand over his stomach, at the imagination of what he just spoke.

How will things be if they both are the same year? A blunder for sure.

Ryan's smile never faded but Javier's eyes twisted, to stare at Ryan from the corner of his eyes. Not even a single word left from his mouth.

But who knew, this laughable smile would be taken into serious consideration in Javier's mind.

….

Time travels very quickly.

It was already the time for the semester exam, which was hard for everyone.

Why? Because on the basis of the same, they will be promoted to the next year semester.

Things mended well between Frick and Javier, as they both understood the position better. There was no dispute between these two anymore as the months passed since the last talk about Jennifer.

Frick was sited in his class when from time to time, his eye traveled to the back seat of the room to find it all empty. 'Everyone has come on the time... Where the hell is this Javier?' he can't help but feel slightly annoyed at this thought.

Why has Javier not arrived yet? 'Does he not know that today is an exam? But that is hard.... Because that man was studying last night. He studied all night!'

His hands were formed into a fist, ready to bang the table if Javier didn't arrive before the invigilator. But from the time it has been he has been having doubts though that Javier will come.

His eyes traveled to the girl in front of him, when he asked in a timid voice, "Hey! Have You seen Javier today? Maybe..when you were coming here??"

"That cold guy with whom you always roam?" the girl asked to which Frick nodded his head. "I'm sorry, I haven't. I guess I haven't seen him since today.." that was hard to realize.

Frick's eyes narrowed when he realized that when he woke up in the morning, Javier wasn't even present in their dorm!

Soon after, the invigilator arrived with the exam sheets. His heart was racing, not at the thought that he doesn't know the exam but the thought that Javier wasn't present and he missed his exam!

The exam ran for the next two hours, but throughout, the seat at the corner remained vacant. Javier was marked Absent for the exam!

Frick completed his exam as per the regular time. When he was engrossed in his answers, he forgot that time. Giving the paper, he immediately left for outside when he rushed towards his dorm, to find it still and empty. Scanning through Javier's bed, he found it cold too, "He wasn't here.."

He mumbled between his breaths when Frick moved to Ryan's center, to find Ryan talking with one of his classmates.

He made his way towards Ryan to ask with a lower voice but determined eyes, "Where is Javier!?"
