Third person POV
Realizing who the person that caught her, Noor quickly moved away from him and adjusted her clothes clenching on her hijab while avoiding his eye contact.
Leo didn't liked she moved away from him as he clenched his hands sinking the lingering warmth from when he hold her before she fall down from the stairs.
Truthfully Leonardo was mesmerized when he saw Noor walked down the stairs. He felt as if he was watching an angel from a far.
A pure innocent angel descending down from the stairs.
An angel that's caught in the cage of a devil.
Her over-all white outfit shinning like bright lights as if her armours protecting her.
Everytime Leo is near her, he always smelt this scent of vanilla essence emitting from her making her smell heavnly sweet as if telling him to devour her right this instant.
And everytime Leo is near her, traits of fear and uneasiness would crawl within Noor making her anxious.
Noor felt overwhemly nervous and she felt her body getting fearfully cold by the dominaring presence coming out from the guy beside her.
She always felt her body paralysed whenever around him, one moving step and she will fall down due to her weak leg because of her trembling legs.
Ya Allah, help me out in this situation. I don't want to be alone with him.
As if her God has listened to her prayer, Jack's voice was heard calling out Noor's name as if looking for her.
"Oh there you are" Noor sighed a relief seeing Jack and her reaction didn't gave Leo a good reaction.
Taking this chance, she walked away from him and went to Jack as he gave a warm smile seeing how beautiful Noor looked at the white dress Michelle gave her.
Even though she was covered head to toe, her face was like a lightening bulb shinning like the brightest star .
" You look beautiful" Jack complimented making a blush spread across Noor's cheeks.
Noor is not used to compliments from others because she never got any from anyone. It's the first time hearing a compliment from Jack and she really doesn't know how to react or respond when someone compliments her.
Specially Michelle who never miss to compliment her.
" Thank you" she replied casting her gaze down as the corner of her lips curved upwards.
Noor never felt intimidated when with Jack she felt comfortable but at the same time her heart stayed uneasy.
She never understood why her heart contradicts with the comfortable feeling she has.
However, when with or in the presence of Leo she felt intimidated by him and uncomfortable but at the same time her heart never once was uneasy .
Now that was a big puzzled riddle not in the right place.
Noor did noticed the difference but never knew why her heart's feelings are in the opposite place for the opposite persons.
Wherever whatever Noor does confusing things only happened to her which she doesn not have the knowledge why is it happening.
Leonardo was looking at her, even though her back was only in his sight he is still damn sure he wont like the expression Noor is showing right now to Jack who just complimented her.
What if he compliments her too? Will she smile and thank him too? But why would he do it?
She avoided him like he wanted so why does it bothered him if she is close with other guys?
" Let's get going . Suzy is being really impatient." said Jack who literally tried to escape from Suzy's grumbling who was complaining about being late for shopping and seeing that Noor wasn't anywhere in sight, he took the excuse of going to bring her to escape the irritation.
" Leo? Did you got the keys?" Jack asked seeing Leonardo who entered the house again from outside because he didn't take his car key with him.
Leo gave a curt nod and the three of them exited the house together. The weather was not too hot nor was it cold. It was mild as if perfect for an outing.
Setting out of the house Noor saw Suzy bickering at Michelle while the latter was ignoring her by being busy on her phone.
It's been a while since Noor came out. She was literally as if locked up in that deserted huge place and forgot how beautiful the outside is .
" Finally you guys arrived. My ears will be bursting blood anytime soon if this bimbo doesn't shut that annoying mouth of hers" Michelle complained walking towards them while sliding her phone in her back pockets and taking her sunglasses off of her head.
" I am sure you handled worst than this" Jack smirked while Michelle rolled her eyes at his words .
" But it weren't as annoying as her. I feel like I am 30+ years older just breathing the same air with her!." Noor can't help but chuckled and so did Jack.
" Let's go" Leo announced wearing his sunglass as he walks towards the yellow Jaguar F-Pace which he recently bought two months ago.
Two things that Leonardo likes the most are Cars and Guns. From the latest to the oldest models he has all types of Cars and Guns.
He keeps them as a collection and also sells them in high price by renovating if needed. Anything Leonardo Chris Henz sells always shook the market place crazy.
Seeing the yellow car was the only vehicle, Noor felt uncomfortable going in the car of his nemises especially with Suzy along.
She knows where ever Suzy is present it will be like thorns all around her.
" Um Noor , why don't you go with Jack?" Michelle suggested sensing Noor's uneasiness in taking the ride with Leo and Suzy.
She knows her only friend has really bad ties with them.
Hearing it Leo stopped in his tracks before he opens the driver's door. As if curious he waits for the response from the girl but was really disappointed hearing it.
" S-sure" Noor sighed a relief followed by Suzy's comment before she went and sits at the passenger's seat.
" Agh- Thank the Gods. I don't want that bitch to ruin the newly car Leo bought by her disgusting smell. I don't know why we are bringing her along with us in the first place"
Michelle felt like she wants to pull Suzy's hair bald and step on her ballon like butt which she likes to sway around so much but Noor held and stopped her.
" If you hadn't stopped me she won't be having eyebrows to show anyone at the Ball" Noor chuckled at her words as Michelle groaned and stomped on the ground before she goes and sits on the car.
Her eyes travelled at the last person who was yet to enter the yellow car and for some reason she felt he was angry at her.
That was confusing. It isn't a surprise he is never showing any other emotion other than anger and numb expression to her but this time it seemed to be something else.
" Noor let's go" Jack called out and she gave a small nod with a smile not before glancing one last time at Leo.
Driving on the way to the mall, the ride with Jack was nice. He kept it away from being awakward by telling Noor funny moments when he and Andrew were in the missions as if telling stories to a child.
" Leo got so mad at him for throwing an actual mud!" He exclaimed with a huge grin remembering the memory of Andrew misheard Leo saying mad as mud and threw it on his face.
Though the consequences he got from Leon was equivalent to his action. Cleaning the stable and washing the horses for two weeks was something Andrew least thought he would get because.... let's just say he and horses has the same relation Michelle and Suzy are having.
But the mud on Leo's face and the expression he gave was damn worth to watch was what Andrew said .
He even has a picture and video saved sent by someone.
Noor giggled imagining the dumbfounded face Andrew would probably have while Leo with his usual stone faced expression.
" by the way Jack, Why did you suggest I should go? " Noor asked wanting to know the answer ever since he made the idea and was soon dragged by Michelle.
" No reason. I thought you would want to go out and take fresh air since you are forever home" he replied as he turned the steering wheel, going around the small park roundabout that's sparkling water to the grasses and plants from the sprinkler.
" And I've always wanted to buy you some things" he added as Noor perked hearing at it.
" What do you mean?" She asked not really sure what he meant behind those words but she had a hunch.
Jack didn't say anything further and just smiled at her before looking back at the road again.
Ten minutes later they reached the mall and fancy would be an understatement if you look at it.
Noor was standing infront of the largest extravagant mall she never dreamt she would any day and now here she was.
MashaAllah-!
As they set foot inside going through the automatic sliding door and passing through security checkpoint they finally entered.
Saftey first!
Noor's eyes shine with stars in them like a kid seeing new toys from outside the glassmirror of the shop as she saw her surroundings with a wide smile stretched till her one eye to the other.
Everywhere where brands that costed more than atleast five years of her previous salary and people were wearing and buying them.
Realizing the place was not even for someone like her that couldn't even afford it her excited expression died down.
" J-Jack here... this is.... I don't think I should be here " she said tugging on Jack's jacket showing her uneasiness.
" Dont worry I told you I wanted to buy you some things so...." he trailed as he took out his wallet from his inner pocket of the jacket and took his debit card from it " Here, you can use my credit card"
" WHAT?!"
