*The Best Fall*

  I was on a research on some kind of herbs for the cancer cure . My name is Diandra - Dr.Diandra - and I'm a scientist. I was in the thick forest of North America when I heard something tremendous crashed on the forest floor . I turned to search the place where the sound came . There was a black, thick smoke from the west side . I rushed to the incident location .
  The thick smoke wafted everywhere when I reached the location . I saw a tremendous helicopter debris in my blurred and that was when I heard somebody groans . I stepped into the debris and saw a man was laying weakly on the floor . I approached him and his bare skin was dirty . He looked very fatigue so, I carried him out of the forest to my metallic black truck . I started the engine and hit the clutch straight away to my apartment . He was unconscious though I had woke hum a few times .
  His body was numb but still too heavy for me to carry him to my apartment on Level 10 . Glad, the elevator was empty . I kicked the front door open and laid him on a bed in the guest room . I rushed into the kitchen to get a glass of water and go back to the room . I sprinkled some water to his face . He suddenly winced and I was glad he still alive . I ran to my bedroom and got a pair of trousers and a blue shirt which my brother left during his visit to my apartment last month . He was pressing his temples with his fingers and did that ouch-my-head-hurts face when I came in .
  "Here's your outfit . Take a shower and wear this ." I said . He looked up to me . His face was still dirty with black spots and sweats . His violet-blue eyes flared, questioning .
  "Where am I ?" He asked .
  "You're at my home . I'll tell you later after you're clean enough to sit on my sofa ." I teased .
  I showed the bathroom to him and he straight away stepped in . I made a mug of hot coffee for him .
  "Hey, thanks ." Suddenly, his voice came from my back . I turned to look at him . Deadly, I was shocked . He was tall, tanned and muscular . His jet black hair was tousled . His white contortion of teeth flashed as he smiled . He was drop-dead gorgeous and handsome .
  "S-Sure . Welcome ." My words stammered . How could I resist a handsome man in my house ? "Have some coffee ." I held out the mug for him . He thanked me and grabbed the mug . He sauntered to the beige tone couch and sat on it . I was stiff beside the counter .
  "Hey, why don't you sit here with me and tell me everything . And, another thing , you look shocked ." Again, he flashed that seductive grin . Without saying anything, I sat in front of him .
  "Who are you actually ? I mean, are you an army or what ?"
  "Actually, I don't remember anything . Thanks to the suit I wore that reminds me of my name and who am I . I was an air army and my name is Marco ." He grinned and held out his hand to me . I grasped his hand and shook them .
  "I'm Diandra Anderson ."
  Then , we sank into a deep confab . I told him how I found him and everything about me . He seemed to be jocund to hear my story and I never felt so relieve when I shared my stories with other .
  "So, can I stay here for a while until I found myself back ?" He asked . The coffee that I sipped almost burst out and I quickly swallowed it into my throat .Oh my goodness ! How can I resist this handsome man living in my house ?
  "Sure . I-It doesn't matter . Make yourself at home ."
  "Do you want me to wear this clothes everyday ?" He asked . His grin and tone were wry .
  "Nope ."
  "So..." He lifted his chin and right brow."
  "Let's go get some outfit for you ." I smiled . I grabbed my Honda City's key and stepped out the front door . Marco, smiling, followed me .
***
  It was weekend . It was peaceful, quiet day . No calls . No works .Only bed, pillow, TV, snacks and ... Marco . I woke up quite late that morning . Suddenly, a scent like roasted salami wafted into my room . I slouched to the kitchen and saw Marco was cooking .
  "You cook ? Breakfast ?" He smiled that seductive grin, again , and nodded . I stood quietly and stiffened on the floor, watching him getting the meal ready .
  "Diandra, why don't you get yourself ready and then we can have breakfast together ?"
  My reverie broke . I spinned on my heel and realized that I looked like a zombie with the haystack-like hair . How embarassing !
  
  I wore the sleeveless blue flannel shirt and a pair of khakis . Marco saw me sauntered from the bedroom and shaped a smirk . I sat on a chair in front of him and grabbed the cutlery . I took a mouthful of the sandwich and it tasted like a professional chef's cooking . He saw the jocosity in my expression and giggled .
  "Oopss."
  "It's okay . Just enjoy yourself . Bon apetit ."
  I took another bite of the sandwich . "Don't you mind if I ask ?" He nodded gently . " Don't you want to find your family, home ? I don't mean to, like, expel you out b- "
  "It's okay . I don't mind." He cut my words . Then, he continued, "If you don't mind to help me."
  "But, I;m quite a busy person."
  "So, I;m gonna stay here with you, Diandra ." He grinned .

  I was on my way back from the grocery store and suddenly, I heard a cat's mew . I searched for the sound everywhere and found a grey kitten on the bough of an apple tree at the park . It was trying to get down from the tree but it couldn't .
  So, I took off my shoes and climbed on the tree . It was tall and I was a flight-risk and fear of falling . I forced my body higher to reach the bough . The kitten kept mewing even louder and people who passed by was staring . I held out my hand and made some kind of sound that could attract the kitten . It walked slowly on the thin bough towards me . It was shivering . I grabbed it in my hand and hold it tightly . When I was on my way to get down, my balancing lost . I know that I would fall so, I hold the kitten even tighter . And, bukk !
  Luckily, the grass were not so harmful for a fall . My neck felt awkward and my left leg hurts . I released the kitten gently and groped in my pocket for my mobile phone . I pressed the number one by one and someone picked the phone .
  "Hello" I heard a seductive male voice on the line .
  "Marco ? Can you help me?"
***
  Marco didn't stop chuckling . He laughed out loud at first but he stopped doing that when I shot him a squint .
  "Why don't you keep the kitten as our pet ?" He asked, still giggling .
  "Hello . No pets allowed,remember ? And, please don't use our." He chuckled. His eyes were still on the road . The car cornered to the left and parked in the parking lot . Marco helped me to move and open the front door . He, then helped me to lay on the bed and spread the blanket over me .
  "Feeling better ?" He asked . I just nodded . The cold air from the balcony wafted in and it shivered me .
  "I'm cold ." He knew what I meant and closed the sliding door of the balcony . Then, he sat on the bed beside me .
  "So, can I leave now?" He asked in whispering voice .
  "No . Stay here."
  "I can't, Diandra ."
  I forced myself to get up and embraced him . He was shocked with my action but then, he wrapped his arm around me . There was something I just knew . I love him . I'd fallen in love with him . I love him . He had stolen my heart . He's kind, nice and caring . He's the man I'm looking for . He's the one . I love him .
  Then, I sank into my dreams in his warm embrace .

  The sunlight stabbed my closed eyes through the sliding door . I forced my eyes open and when I was about to get up, I saw Marco was sleeping really soundly on the floor . He had brought the pillow and blanket from his room and slept in my room to accompany me .
  I walked, crippling, to the kitchen and heated last night lasagna . I poured some orange juice enough for both of us . The house was quiet so , I switched on the TV .
  "Breaking news . A US air army had been reported missing during a mission in North America mountain ranks . Marco Edison, 27, who was handling the army's helicopter suddenly lost control and the helicopter crashed . Edison was not f-" I switched off the TV . The remote control fell on the carpet .
  "Diandra ? Are you alright ?" Marco was standing behind me . His expression was puzzled .
  "I've found your home ." I went to the phone and dialed the military number . He watch me callously . "Hello . I knew where is-" Marco pulled the phone from me .
  "Hello, sir . I'm sorry . Wrong number." He pressed the red button and looked straight into my eyes . His flaring eyes made me shudder .
  Shockingly, he brushed his lips on mine and laid another kiss on my forehead . "I don't want to go back . I'm not going anywhere . This is my home . Our home." He kissed me for one more time . I was stiff in front of him . My hand punched his broad chest softly and I laid my head on it .
  "I don't want to make you sad. You missed your family."
  He wrapped his arm around me and buried his mouth in my hair .
" I love you and I want to be with you ." He murmured . "There's no point of going back home without you . I will bring you to meet my family ."He suddenly on the ground on one knee and he took my hand in his . He laid his lips on the back of my hand and said in his seductive, honey-like voice " Will you marry me so that I can go home with you forever ? I can't give you a platinum pendant nor diamond ring neither but, please answer me ."
  "Yes, I will ." He grinned and rose to hug me . He laughed happily and hugged me tightly . He held my shoulders and stared deeply into my eyes . His face was  a few inches from mine .
  "You can fall from the sky." I said .
  He chuckled. "You can fall from the tree." We both giggled .
  "But, the best fall is .." I continued .
  Together we said, smiling in the center of the living room "..is to fall in love with you." Grinning, we stepped together to the front door .
