New Beginnings
By Vinnie R.
CHAPTER ONE
"So how was it?" He asked as he took a seat next to her on the old blanket. Popping the top off of the can of beer he handed one to Ria... whilst taking a sip from his own can.
"How was what?" She asked sipping the semi-cold beverage and feeling the slight burn down her throat. She had an urge to wrinkle her nose at the taste but didn't least he think she was some kind of wuss. This was not her first beer...but she still did not like the taste, he said it would grow on her she was waiting for that moment.
"The big wedding ! didn't you go?...I mean it's not every day ones father gets married to an heiress!" He laughed. "Got to hand it to you Ria... your old man sure knows how to pick em!"
"Oh Shut up Sam!..." Ria said, annoyed at his reference to HIM!
"That was weeks ago... where are you? And hello he is nothing to me Ok ? Why would I go to that farce of a wedding he could marry the pope for all I care!" She said scathingly.
"Yeah Yeah I know...but man...I mean aren't you even curious as to who she is? She is your step - mom after all. I still think you are making a mistake not talking to him..." Sam said
"I am making a mistake? Sam really...how is that?' She asked. She looked at him incredulously, how can he say that ... he knew exactly why ... he also knew that bringing that man up in a conversation was uncomfortable for her...but no he treated it as though it was some sort of joke.
Ria wondered really why was she even in this relationship with this guy, at times he was such a looser...but then it was not like she was any better. He may be insensitive at times but he was the only one who would listen to her. Everyone else at collage thought she was a weirdo. Not that she cared any.
" Look at you Ria... You are attending St. Bernard's ... this is one of the most prestigious not to mention expensive collages around, not to mention you stay at one of the most comfortable hostels, all your expenses are taken care of... I mean you want something all you do is send him an e-mail and you get it...yet you refuse to talk to the man. I wish I was that lucky...Now imagine if you did talk to him, go home for the holidays instead of spending it alone here girl you'd be rolling in dough! " He said, finishing off his beer and opening a next can. He lit a cigarette and took a drag. "Think about it, and now being married to a corporate queen... you got it made babe..."
Ria looked at Sam with a look of utter disgust on her face. "That is disgusting!" she said . "And hello all the money he is spending on me I will pay him back one day... You wait and see. Just three more years in this place na... three more years and I'll be out I'll get a job and pay him back every black cent he spent on me... I..." She stopped at his laugher. "What's so funny?" she asked.
"Job...are you sure you would even graduate? I mean most of the time you are out of class instead of in it and when you are in you're in your own world...at this rate you'll be lucky to get a leaving certificate... by the way what did you tell the principal about your parents?"
"I told her my father is out of the country and she received an e-mail from him though assuring her that I will "buck up!" She smiled.
"Hmmm devious mind..." He chuckled as he hugged her leaning forward to kiss her. She pushed him away.
"Ohh come on, babe don't be mad..." He said as she turned her head. "Ok Ok I crossed the line I am sorry..." He said seeing that she was mad about her father.
No you're not...you just don't understand." She said . "Why would you, your parents are still together still in love...mine ..mine are dead. You have no idea what that man is like...ohh such a sweet face, but underneath it...God I hate him..." She said bitterly.
The feelings of utter hatred she felt thinking about that man was just unexplainable. The heat of anger that filled her heart. An anger that grew ever since she found those letters.
" He has not been doing me any favors by taking care of me..Ok. Just to make himself look like some saint, he took in his ex-lovers orphan child. And the world said Wha..what a man the high and mighty Veer Pratap Singh...but took me in? really...shipped me off to boarding school, because taking care of a seven year old was too much to handle for a lawyer... then here...showing up once in a while saying he loves me...yeah right. I am nothing more to him and some sort of guilty conscience ... a charity case..." She said, it was hard to hide the hurt in her voice . She quickly blinked back her tears as she took a few gulps of her beer to compose herself.
"Hey I am sorry babe...really ...I shouldn't have brought him up." Sam said moving closer to her. "wanna smoke you'll feel better?"
"no..you know those things would kill you right?' She said, seriously.
He laughed. Taking another drag. Her warning going on deaf ears, sometimes she was such an old woman about some things...Sam wanted to say forget it with her. But she was a challenge, and for a moment he thought she would be easy pickings, I mean she dressed like a call girl, with that red hair, short skirts, tattoos... an easy lay sure.
Especially when everyone else at the school treated her like an alien and why wouldn't they?...she was always in fights, always screaming at any one who looked at her funny, always in trouble. It was in detention class that he met her... he saw his chance.
He invited her to a rave party, which she accepted. And for some reason she thought he was a friend. He had to listen to her one night after she had one to many beers rant about her old man, and just when he thought he was going to get lucky, she fell asleep, then got up and walked back to her hostel without him knowing.
It's been a month now since they been "together" and he was yet to get further than a few kisses her and there, but he had a plan...tonight would be the night, then she could take all her problems elsewhere for all he cared. He smiled as he thought about little packet of pills in the pocket of his bag that would get her to do anything he wanted. All he had to do was slip one in one of these beers.
It was a Saturday night and they were in the old abandoned science lab at the back of the collage that was officially closed months ago after they shifted to a newer state of the art building. Since no one came in the back here anymore it was the perfect meeting place for them to meet without any hassle.
Chucking the cigarette butt he moved closer to her lying down on an old blanket, pulling her down to his side. As he hugged her lightly..."Forget all that heavy stuff . Let's not spoil the perfect night ..." he said placing kisses on her neck.
"Umm...Sam? It's getting late maybe we should go." She said after a while trying to get up.
"Shhh...don't worry it's early, we still got the rest of this beer to finish." He said convincingly.
"No...Really...I don't want any more ...let's just go ..." She said pushing him away and sitting up.
"Oh come on Ri...don't be like that!" Sam said.
"Be like what? Sam you know I am not ready of any of that ." She said looking at him.
"It's been a month Ri...don't be such a prude." He said letting out a breath of frustration.
"Prude? You called me a Prude seriously?. You know I don't take well to pressure, and I don't appreciate you being so demanding sometimes..."
"Demanding?..huh...Well maybe I would not have to be If you were not so stuck up about it" he said his own temper flaring.
Riya looked at him as a feeling of hurt crossed her face. He could be mean sometimes.
"I can't believe you said that to me!"
"Well what else you want me to say. You know Riya if all you wanted was someone to listen to your problems , why didn't you ask your daddy dearest to pay for some therapy sessions...at least some one would be happy getting something!" he said nastily.
"Sam How dear you! " Ria said her anger raising as well.
"How dear me?... I don't know , frankly you are not worth it. I mistakenly thought you'd be more easy going, with the clothes , the hair...but you're nothing like I thought...this tough girl image for what? You're nothing but a wanna be. All show no go that's what you are!!!"
In a fit of anger, Ria took her empty beer can and threw it in his direction, it missed him hitting the desk behind him and knocking over a couple of beakers that went crashing to the floor.
"You bitch! ..." He said
"Get away from me!!! I don't ever want to see you again !" She screamed at him. Angry tears welling in her eyes . How was she so stupid to think he was any different from any one else...
"Who is in there?" came a voice from the main door of the building as lights flashed through the window.
"Ohh Shoot!' Sam said as he turned and hurriedly climbed through one on the windows disappearing in the darkness without one look back.
Ria Picked up the bags quickly to do the same but befor she could make it out the window the guards came into the building.
"Freeze young lady!!!..." The guard said, as she was half way over the ledge. "Drop the bags and turn around!"
Sighing dejectedly Ria did as they instructed.
