Evalo had never been so confused all her life. Suddenly it's like her world revolved around a subject she barely knew. Every time she had a dream it would be really blurred. Her sixth sense would sniff company but her mind could have been too distracted to send any signals to her heart.
The cold that would engulf her when she was not at work or at school was unbearable, explained why she'd keep herself busy until she had no strength left in her. It was difficult for her to look at the world the same way she did a little while ago. She had grown insensitive to the world that had taught her so much in such a short time.
Evalo is the kind of woman who is in control of her life, her future, her past and leaves nothing to chance. Probably this is enough explanation for her lone ranger lifestyle. She'd stand out wherever she goes and so she found a way to sew confidence into her shy personality fabric.
As much as she is steel strong,Evalo has a weakness, a soft spot I'd say, one she hates with attitude. She hates it because that button makes her weak in the knees, makes her mind wander from work at mid day and clearly makes her heart crave for the forbidden.
She wouldn't hear from Yddif every single day, but the few times she did, she slept peaceful and her smile would beam. She felt a cloud of bliss from the debris of her heart but she was afraid. Scared that history has a tendency of recurring, and so she keeps a safe distance.
She back dates to a year ago when she went out with him, it was the first and had been the last since then. He was a perfect gentle man, respectful, calm , soft spoken and definitely cute. Evalo would never forget the few times their skin brushed and all she felt was warmth, soft and smooth skin that gave forth a voodoo she found irresistible.
As she wakes up daily, amidst the confusion life offers and the work that weighs her down at the end of the day, she finds solace in a phone call. At the other end of the line is a stranger, a friend, she is not sure. She is however sure, he is the only sane thing in her life.
