Stranger(part2)
"Hello, who's this?" I try not to be too rude, I mean who knows right?!
"Hello, am Julia Ferman, Can I talk to Jenny Wenz please, its kind of urgent." a rather sweet but hurried voice inquired from the other side. It was difficult to decide among the most suited replies, as being an introvert virgo I cant help maintaining my high standards in almost everything. "Sorry, wrong number!", simple and formal. I was quick to tap without even thinking about waiting to hear her reply, not on a holiday morning, no. A loud beep and I was back to my peaceful silence. A sip of delicious tea made everything calm down back to silence. It wasn't long when a small sweetheart caught my attention.Hoya Kerrii, a beautiful heart shaped lover of sunlight, not needing much care. It was on my birthday when my sister gifted this to me with a set of three books from E.L.James, 'Shades of Grey'. "You'll like it" she said. I was so impatient to name this little cute plant. Learning German back then, mad me name it der liebling," Coz, why not?!" and that's how the little der liebling became a part of my life. But that excitement never hit me for "Shades of grey", being a book lover, it's strange why I never went through single one of them, maybe I should try...
I am a hasty walker, 11min/km or 9 sometimes. It's just habitual, I hate being late.Time is precious, specially when its mine. But today I was slow in my motion, took me a few seconds to reach the dark brown glossy, book shelf smelling of hard bindings and ink dipped pages. Panlo Coelho, Fredrick Forsyth, Dan Brown and so many to make me feel proud of my collection. E.L James, part 1, here she is, an interesting cover page. Not many books have I heard from her, interesting that she finally decided to do what she likes, i.e. writing. Excited to know what's the book about, Flipping it around, a brief, Something bout deepening relationship between a college graduate, Anastasia Steele and a rich, wierd business magnet, Christian Grey....and my samsung starts rip-roaring again. I used to love this innocent peice of Jazz, but not anymore, it's tantalizing abilities make me wanna throw it away. "Please can I talk to Jenny, this is really important." the same Julia Ferman, sounding sweet but more impatient now...
