Chapter 2 - Chapter 2; Have we met?

The tick tick of the clock was as slow as ever , his anxious eyes kept darting to the girl and the clock , none of them made a move . The girl stretched forth her hand , " Julian?", she asked doubting.

" Your face ?"

" There's more to me than a face"

" Yet you are without one"

" Am I ?"

" You tell me , what does it look like?"

" Some words are better left unsaid"

" Your face is not a word now, is it ? A picture is worth more than a thousand words, am I right?"

"Am I to know that ?"

"Who are you?"

" You are not within the capacity to question me"

" Yet you are in my place, calling my name , without a face. I believe, I can question you, can't I ?"

" Are you this defensive?"

"Are you this offensive?"

" Hazel"

Julian responded with an arched brow "

Meaning?"

" My name , Hazel"

" And your face?"

"Can you not ask ?"

"You tell me"

Hazel looked around, Julian wasn't falling for plan , apparently, she hadn't expected to be countered so flawlessly.

A perfect escape showed up , it was midnight, or rather, his birthday.

" Happy birthday Julian"

Julian turned to the clock , it really is his birthday. His eyes darkened and when he turned back, she was gone. How?

A smile appeared on his lips , perhaps there is more to her than a face.

.......

" Hazel" he muttered silently .
