Her Mysterious Life – In love with her secret savior

"So, we are officially dating from now?" Kyra asked. 

"Hmm.", Oliver hummed in response as he entwined their fingers and rested them on his lap. 

"I am your girlfriend from now on.", Kyra said. She still couldn't believe that this was happening. Part of her was still uncertain till now as there were chances of him backing off. After all, what she said is scary and no one wants a girlfriend who is insecure, sensitive and pesters everytime. 

So, she was not confident that Oliver would want her even after what she said to him. 

Maybe Oliver is sent by God to heal her heart. Maybe God has taken mercy on her and decided to give a loving life partner. 

"Yes. You are my girlfriend and I am your boyfriend officially starting from now.", Oliver answered as he moved close to her and wrapped his hands around her shoulder. 

"I can't believe this, Oliver. Love and relationship were not in my plan till a few months back. I never thought that I would be capable of forming relationships in such a short span of time. Everything seems so surreal to me but in a good way."

"I think I changed a lot after meeting you.", Kyra said as she looked at the beautiful sky. 

The sun has risen and the sky is filled with the golden glow. The birds are chirping and their peaceful singing has filled the air with soothing vibes. The lazy breeze wafted the fresh scent of the morning while the leaves slowly rustled with the movement of the wind. 

Overall, the environment is romantic and refreshing. 

Oliver smiled listening to Kyra's words. Those words are the evidence of how significant he is to her. She is telling that his presence in her life has brought many changes in her. 

"I hope that those changes are mostly good in nature.", Oliver whispered. 

"They are. I am glad I met you Oliver.", Kyra sincerely said, making Oliver fly to the cloud nine. 

He could pull her into an embrace and kiss the top of her head. "You have brought many changes in me as well, Ky. You have actually broken the barriers I have built around my heart. You changed my beliefs towards love and relationships and that is only possible because you have started to heal my heart."

"I am glad as well. I am thankful to God for sending you to me, Ky. Thank you for giving me this chance. I promise to cherish it." Oliver replied,his lips still lingering on her hair. 

Kyra snuggled in his embrace as she rested her head on his chest. 

'I just hope that I won't hurt you, Oliver. I can never forgive myself if I do that.', Kyra worriedly thought. 

"This is our first day as a couple, Ky. Any suggestions on how to spend it?" Oliver asked. Ever since they started talking, their discussion was serious. It is not how he wants it to be. So, he could only change the topic. 

Even Kyra realized that they are not utilising this romantic time properly. Instead of spending it in a sweet and loving manner, she started to ruin it by speaking about her. 

Kyra looked up, just in time to lock her eyes with him. They are sitting on the grass and they snuggle in each other's embrace. He had his face resting on her hair while she was leaning her head on his chest. They looked like a sweet and happy couple. 

His blue eyes captivated her and the same goes for Oliver as well. 

"Let's go on our first date today.", she told him after a few seconds. 

"Sounds perfect. So, where do you wish to go, Ms. Collins?", Oliver asked in a teasing tone. 

"Surprise me, Mr. Miller.", Kyra said, winking at him. 

"Is it a challenge, Ms. Collins?" Oliver asked. 

"My first challenge to my boyfriend.", Kyra playfully said. 

"I won't disappoint you, girlfriend," Oliver said, a playful smirk on his lips. 

"I know that.", Kyra said as she went back to looking at the beautiful lake while she continued to rest her head on his embrace as they cuddled. 

Neither of them spoke. They enjoyed the warmth of their embrace as they snuggled against each other. This peaceful silence got disturbed only when Kyra's phone started to ring. 

Kyra was startled for a second ad then fished it out from her sling bag. 

It's Luther. 

Before she could swipe up and place it near her ear, Oliver happened to look at the background of the caller id. There was enough time for him to analyze the picture. 

Luther had his arms wrapped around Kyra's neck and his chin resting on Kyra's head. He had a loving smile on his lips and his eyes were fixated on Kyra. Meanwhile, Kyra's face is glowing with the happiness Oliver had never seen. Her hand was holding Luther's arm and they were actually in the middle of some conversation. Kyra looked very beautiful and overjoyed in that picture. 

By her dress, he could tell that it was taken on her graduation day. And, by the way the photo was taken, it looked candid and genuine. Neither of them are posing and it is obvious that they are enjoying each other's company. 

Oliver felt jealous and possessive. Jealous because he didn't get to see her graduation day which is one of the most important events of her life. 

Possessive because he could see that Kyra is more than a friend to Luther. He came to that opinion by looking at Luther's eyes. The emotions in his eyes felt familiar to Oliver because they are similar to the emotions Oliver feels when he looks at Kyra. 

Proud, loving, doting and caring. 

"I am coming in ten minutes, Luther.", Kyra's answer brought Oliver back from his thoughts. 

"I didn't notice the time, idiot!!", Kyra said, rolling her eyes. 

"Fine…fine. I will bring his highness his favorite cappuccino from Starbucks. Happy?" Kyra asked, shaking her head. 

"I am not a kid! I know how to get back to home safe.", she said in disbelief before cutting the call. 

"We need to go. We will be late to work, otherwise. Time indeed flows fastly with you.", Kyra said, looking at Oliver. 

"I know right!", Oliver said as she stood up. 

"And, can we stop at Starbucks? That coffee addict friend of mine wants coffee from there.", Kyra said, looking apologetic. 

"It's fine." Oliver said as they pushed their cycled with them as they started to walk

"We can have one each as we are going there anyway.", Kyra said. 

"Nope. It would become our first date if we do so. I can't let our first date become so simple!" Oliver said. 

Kyra chuckled and could only shake her head. 

After picking up Luther's coffee, Kyra ordered her own takeout. 

She said, 'If we sit here and spend time while we drink this coffee, it will be treated as the date. Taking takeout won't be considered as a date' before ordering for her, Ryan, Sofia and for Oliver as well. 

As Oliver knows that Kyra is a coffee addict he could only chuckle at her logic and let her do as she wants. 

Later, he drove Kyra to her house. 

"See you in two hours.", Oliver said, kissing the back of her hand. 

"Drive safe.", Kyra said as she entwined the fingers of her hand he just kissed with his. 

"I am not a kid! I know how to get back home safe.", Oliver said, imitating the words which Kyra used when Luther said 'Drive safe' in the call. 

"I can't bear to see you get hurt.", Kyra said before alighting the car. 

Oliver chuckled at her words but he couldn't help but wonder if this is the answer Luther said to Kyra when she said those words. 

'It's okay, Oliver. She treats him as a friend.", he told himself and ignited the engine, before driving back to his place. 

Meanwhile, Kyra entered her house with a smile on her lips. She couldn't believe she was dating her idol. She couldn't believe that he is willing to be in a relationship with a woman who has many flaws and conditions. 

'I am not single anymore', Kyra thought in disbelief as she entered the living room. 

"I bought coffee for everyone", she shouted as she placed them on the dining table. 

Luther was the first one to hurry. Not for coffee but for Kyra. 

"Where have you been. Ky? It's cold outside and you left early!! What if you catch a cold, huh?", he asked. 

Kyra smiled and shrugged her shoulders. 

"It's not that cold! And, I went cycling. It's so refreshing and it's a good kickstart.", she answered as she passed him his coffee. 

Luther wanted to ask if she had gone alone but he didn't. What if she starts talking about Oliver and confesses her feelings for Oliver?? If that happens he can't confess his own feelings for her and ask her for a chance. 

"Ryan and Sofia didn't wake up?" Kyra asked. 

"They are sleeping. They don't have to get ready for work. We have to.", Luther said and they both sighed at the same time. Sometimes, they feel jealous of the two guys who are happily sleeping upstairs. However, as they love their career they don't regret choosing this profession. 

"You get ready. I will prepare a quick breakfast for both of us.", Luther said.

"Okie.", Kyra said as she started to walk towards the stairs. 

"And, Ky. Are you free this evening?" Luther asked. He doesn't want to delay anymore.. After seeing Oliver and Kyra this morning, he knows that he can't delay his confession anymore.
