Chapter 24 #Ditermination

After going back to mountain villa with Cal, Caleb thought a lot about the next steps he should make.

One thing was clear that Myra did have feelings for him. Otherwise, she would have slapped him for kissing her and obviously she also had responded to the kiss. However how deep were they, that was uncertain.

Caleb had already decided that he was going to pester Myra endlessly until she reveals the reason for staying away from him.

It was Sunday morning 7 am next day. Caleb woke up then got freshened up in fifteen minutes had some cereal with milk for breakfast left a note on the refrigerator telling him that he would be spending Sunday with his future girlfriend.

After that he left in black jeep wrangler Rubicon X.

The mountain villa is almost one hour away from SDI university. After reaching the university Caleb headed straight towards the place Myra is most likely to be at Sunday morning. Cafeteria.

He knows this because Myra is big foodie. He also knows that she can never say no to Macy's magical candies and her favourite place is snow world and not because it is beautiful. She actually likes it because of their ever-changing sweets menu. There are many more things that he knows about her like she loves strawberries and so her shampoo is the same flavour. And she is allergic to bananas. He knows many more things about her like how she acts when she lies.

See, with how well he knows Myra it would be strange if he will not realise it when she lying to him.

He reaches cafeteria and sees Myra having breakfast with Xu-lin. Wait, why the hell is she having breakfast with that bitch? Whatever.

Today Myra is wearing black spaghetti strap tank top and pants with army print. She has left her hair down and they are still slightly damp from shower. She looks hot.

After two minutes Xu-lin leaves, perfect timing. Caleb pushes the glass double door and enters. Xu-lin doesn't notice him since he used the other entrance and Xu-lin exits from the one that leads to inside of the campus building while Caleb uses the one that leads to outside of the campus building and towards the cafeteria garden.

Myra sees him and finishes her las bite of the food and juice in a hurry and make runs towards the disposal area. He follows her immediately decreasing the distance between.

He clutches her arm just before she is reaching out for the door handle for exit.

"Exactly where are you heading so fast?"

She realises a frustrated sigh because of her failed attempt of escaping.

She turns gives me a perfect I am bored and so done with you look and asks "What?"

I leave her arm and she fold her hands in an attitude.

"Do you have something important to do today?" he asks.

"Yes" she says rather rudely.

"What important work?"

"None of your business." She again turns to exit about leave. But he doesn't let her and again cutches her arm.

"Not so fast. You are not leaving until you tell me."

"I have some writing assignments to do." She replies trying to sound as rude as possible for ever polite and sweet Myra.

"Okay grab all the things you need for the assignment and meet me at the entrance."

"Wait. What? Why?"

Before she can ask more Caleb takes her phone from her hands and tells her.

"This is the insurance that you will be there in five minutes. Or else you won't see this phone for the rest of your life." Saying this he heads towards the main entrance.

Caleb has left Myra in dilemma. She does not, cannot spend anymore time with him. But she wants her cell phone back.

Even though she can afford a new one but that would be a waste of money and would put a dent on her bank account. And all the saved numbers and photos and other important details are also present in that cell phone of hers.

So reluctantly she makes her way towards her dorm grabs the required pages, books, some stationary and my laptop.

Myra decides that she will try to make Caleb change his mind about her and make him leave the heck alone.

She keeps all her stuff in her bag and makes her way towards the main gate of the campus.

As she reaches, she spots Caleb in some kind of black jeep looking handsome as ever. He is wearing black shades and white t shirt with black pants. His black hair is tousled probably due to him running his fingers through them frequently. She observes him for a while the she has a crush on who also returns her feeling. But she cannot date him.

She shakes her head to get out of the deep thoughts and makes her way to him.

"I came. So, can I get my phone back now?"

"Get in." he tilts his head to the side while saying this.

"What is it, can't we talk here only." I she suggests trying to avoid as much interaction from Caleb as possible.

"Get in on your own or else."

She reads the threat in his tone and decides it's best not to cross him.

He has been behaving strange since yesterday. The sudden kiss and now this. Caleb is not acting like the gentleman he is for some reason.

Myra probably knows for what reason.

After she gets in closes the door he starts driving towards the city.

"At least tell me where we are going?" requests Myra while looking towards him with a pleading look in his eyes.

"At one of my residence. I go there when I want to work on something peacefully. You can complete your assignment there and I'll get my work till you are doing your assignment." He answers while driving.

"Caleb let's not do this stop driving give me my phone back and I'll go back to campus"

"Sure, I'll do everything exactly as you say. You just answer my one question. Why are you avoiding me?" he says in an irritated voice.

She opens her mouth to answer but he interrupts before she could.

"And please don't bother lying like last time."

Myra gives up and decides to go with Caleb do her assignment peacefully for today. She will surely deal with this problem just not today.
