The Traps of Black Swan

Aaron had thought if Aarvi voluntarily speaks about her past, she would be fine and wouldn\'t faint but he regretted letting her remember those events. 

He understood why she chose to tell him. He was hovering over her to take her mobile from her bedside without disturbing her sleep and his mobile rang. He guessed his mobile ringtone and Leon Harmon\'s mobile ringtone are the same. She must have panicked in her grogginess and pushed him without even seeing him.

Aaron saw Aarvi sleeping on a single bed. He had long ago converted a small room in Avron mansion to a small clinic which was no less than an ICU with the required apparatus needed for these types of incidents.

Even though Aarvi\'s heart condition was far better, her heartbeats beats had calmed down and she didn\'t have a heart attack, his legs were still trembling to see her frequently drifting from conscious to unconscious frequently.

He had expected her to groan in pain due to nightmares but she was frowning deeper and deeper in confusion.

The maids were desperately waiting outside the room to know what went wrong. Melia clenched her trembling fingers to make her mind before pushing the door to open. 

She knew if it was serious, Aaron would be preparing to shift Aarvi to the hospital or all other surgeons would be summoned so she sighed seeing him sitting holding Aarvi\'s palm between his.

A maid nurse who noticed Melia standing by the door quickly went out and closed the door. She saw all worrying for Aarvi so didn\'t delay to inform, "Young miss is fine, her heart is healthy and functioning well. Probably she is stressed and fainted."

She heard all breathe a sigh of relief without caring they were all awake in the middle of the night. The maid nurse continued, "I will be here if Young Master and Miss need me. You all should go and rest."

All nodded and didn\'t make noise and silently went to the maid quarters. Melia patted the maid nurse before getting her a warm shawl if she needs to wait all night.

Inside the room, Aarvi was again seeing the same teenager but whenever she tried to see his face clearly, she would drift off to the darkness before dreaming again of another place, she would see the same boy and little Ava smiling happily around him.

She couldn\'t make out a few dreams clearly but one was pretty clear. It was in a cafe and she was standing at the door looking around. Her eyes were searching for something… Or someone.

Her shoulder was about to droop in disappointment but a tall teenager exited the utility room. He was wearing a white shirt, maroon trousers, and black shiny shoes.

Her head tilted slightly as a sweet smile appeared on her face. She wasn\'t putting on a facade of a smile but she was happy to see him. Her smile didn\'t only reach her eyes that had curved to crescents but a pink glow of her face was clearly visible.

Ava knew all the girls in the school uniform cupped their faces admiring the handsome teenager but his eyes were only on the girl who was standing at the door.

Ava had below shoulder length chocolate brown hair, her baby pink lips were failing to settle her curve standing in school uniform. Her petite face was glowing without caring about the jealous eyes she had gathered due to the teenager smiling at her.

The teenager cued her to enter as he wore an apron. Before he completely tied the strings behind his back, Ava had reached him grinning happily.

His hand gently rubbed her head, "Why is my Cupcake so happy today?"He sounded gentle and sweet. He took his hands off her head and acted like he was thinking, "Hmmm… Let me guess… You came first in the class."

Ava bounced on her toes seeing him proud of her. She wasn\'t happy about coming first in the exams but she was happy to share it with him. 

He pinched her cheeks adoringly while she said, "Yes. I will show you the report card wait."

[Aarvi teared up in her sleep due to the dream. \'Why is it a dream? Why can\'t they be a reality?\' She really needed someone when she was a teenager to share such little things.]

Ava opened the report card and answer sheets. She would point at the wronged one and pouted at him, "I don\'t know why I got this one wrong." 

The handsome teenager took her heavy school bag as he checked the papers taking her towards the table. Ava sat on the chair he pointed and saw him place her bag opposite to her before sitting next to her.

Smiling, Ava looked at him nod satisfied by her answers. "My Cupcake is so smart."

However, she swung her legs saying, "But I can\'t score perfect score like you.

The teenager chuckled as he tapped her cute nose, "You are still the best." He shifted to reward, "What would you like to eat today for coming first?"

She quickly stood on the chair to see what desserts were there. The teenager had his eyes on her probably thinking she might choose something else this time.

"I will buy you a pineapple mini cake for coming first." He didn\'t protest hearing her say she wants to buy for him. Ava continued, "You get me…" She licked her lips and smiled, "Red velvet cupcake."

The teenager gave up. His Cupcake only needs the cupcake he bakes. He held her hand when she jumped off the chair and saw her run to the counter to order a mini cake for him while he went inside the counter to fetch her cupcakes.

There was a different teenager at the cash counter who smiled looking at her, "Ava, you know you can eat for free, right?" He mused without understanding why this little girl always pays when the owner of the cafe is her boyfriend.

Ava chuckled without responding and pointed to a mini cake that was inside the cooler, "Brother Nick, one pineapple cake, please. Hot chocolate and low sugar, no cream coffee."

Nick quickly generated the bill and handed her. He saw her check the amount and took money from her pocket, pulled a currency note, and handed him. 

She took the change and said "Thank you..." he shook his head helplessly and added with a smile, "I will serve your order to your table, Miss. Kelly. Enjoy your evening."

She giggled as she nodded, "I will wish you a lot of customers. Work Hard."

He put on a sad face, "This is not the time for good people. Sob, no one wants me to have a happy evening." 

Ava continued to giggle and skipped over to the table waving her hand at Nick who continued to capture the girls\' hearts with his bewitching smile.

Ava sat next to the handsome teenager who handed her a cupcake. Happily taking it from him, she remembered something and went closer to him supporting her hand on his shoulder.

She was about to peck his cheek but her near presence caused him to turn to her. Her hand that was on his shoulder slipped down and her pink lips landed on his soft lips. 

Ava\'s eyes widened big as saucers at a sudden turn of events. The handsome boy was caught by surprise and whoever was watching them gasped. 

Some were smiling, some were fuming but the handsome teenager held his breath when she backed off. Probably how he was expecting her to react followed the next second and everyone\'s jaw dropped.
