Evolution to GOD

Chapter 115: Life of Tanya (I)



Chapter 115: Life of Tanya (I)

Tanya caught up to me as I approached the counter, and my eyes scanned the enormous public area, where everyone was busy with whatever they were doing. 

Suddenly, a nostalgic feeling welled up inside me as I strolled towards the counter. I could even feel that Tanya was looking at me from time to time.

“Wait here for some time while I get the pass,” Tanya’s voice interrupted my thoughts. When I turned to look at her, she nodded and started walking towards the counter.

As she approached the counter, my eyes were fixed on her back. I think I should really thank her. This whole time, my mind was fully occupied with her. No other thoughts occupied my mind while she kept me busy the whole time.

The main reason I wanted to take a break was that all these useless thoughts and the instability of my emotions had greatly affected me. Being away from these people for some time could help me greatly.

As my eyes were fixed on her, she finished the procedure and came back with the pass. When she came back, she waved the passes in front of me.

“Let’s go,” she said as she turned around to leave.

This whole time, my eyes were fixed on her figure. Even now, when I was following her, I couldn’t keep my eyes away from her. Even though she looked cold, she rarely acts like that, especially when she’s with me.

In her flowery top and jeans, she looked beautiful. I shook my head as I caught up to her and asked,

“I don’t understand one thing,” 

“Oh, what is it?” she asked, making a surprised expression as we walked toward the boarding gate. To be honest, this world is very similar to earth. Even the terminal was the same, but much larger.

“You are the captain, right? Why didn’t you ask for the special aircraft?” I asked as I locked my gaze on hers. Even though it sounded stupid, my question was just to tease her. But her answer surprised me.

“Hmm, I could have asked, but I wanted to experience a normal life for some time.” Her gaze was locked on me for a moment before she turned her face to look away.

When she said those words, I could clearly feel some pain in her voice. I think her life was really challenging. Maybe this trip would be a really worthwhile escapade for her.

We kept quiet as we reached the boarding gate and found the seat. As we sat, I turned my face to look at her. 

“You know,” I asked her.

She furrowed her brows as she looked at me and asked, “What?”

“You know, you look so much distracted today,” I said, my gaze locked on hers.

Her eyebrows relaxed as a smile appeared on her face. “Really? I don’t think so?”

I shook my head, “Yes, care to share some of your burdens?” I leaned back while I waited for the answer.

She went silent for a moment as her smile disappeared while her eyes were fixed on me. After a while, she let out a sigh and said, “You know that right, you don’t behave like someone who just came out of the jungle after his evolution?”

Those words surprised me, as my lips pursed, but I nodded, “Maybe,”

“You know, normally I am not gifted with words, but I don’t know what happened to me when I saw you. I felt that I could open up my heart to you. Even I have been surprised many times by these feelings.” She paused as she stared at me.

I looked at her for some time, then nodded, “Maybe something clicked between us,”

She nodded and then shook her head, “Maybe or maybe not, but I can tell you one thing, you are the only man with whom I speak this openly,”

Now, this surprised me. Even though I heard she doesn’t talk much. I hadn’t thought that she wouldn’t speak to men.

“Really?” 

She nodded. “You may find it absurd, but it is the truth. And you know what? When they told me about training you, I was really pissed. After so many years I got some time off duty but instead of leaving on vacation, they sent me to train you,”

I was dumbfounded. I really didn’t know that she was about to leave on vacation. Maybe this was the reason she was so excited about traveling.

It was her sweet voice that reached my ears again. “But once I learned that Alexandra was managing this facility, I somehow agreed to come here. You don’t know, but Alexandra used to be my commander a long time back. It was then that we became friends,”

I nodded. Now I understand the reason she was so friendly with Alexandra. But wait.

“You mean to say it was your first time visiting this place?” I asked suddenly.

She had a surprised expression on her face when she suddenly heard my question, but she nodded, “Yes.”

“Then what about Lily? How does she know you?”

A look of understanding formed on her face when she heard my question and a teasing smile on her face. “Ah! You don’t know?”

“Know what?” I asked, as my eyes fixed on her smiling face. 

“Lily used to work under me in the forces. But she took retirement recently and was working here,”

What the fuck! Can’t I find a single normal person in my life? This whole time I thought she was just a normal woman who was working at the facility. But no, she was also working with forces, that too, under Tanya.

“Oh! You really didn’t know then,” Tanya said, as her smile spread across her face again.

I shook my head and sighed. “I didn’t know. I just thought that she was just a normal woman working at the facility. But who would have thought that a special forces soldier would work as a receptionist?”

“Hmm, you are right, but she had her reasons to work like that. You would be surprised to know, but she was one of my elite soldiers. But …” She paused, as her smile disappeared as she closed her eyes.

“But what?” I asked. Somehow, I was really curious to know about Lily. This whole time, I knew nothing about her.

But Tanya shook her head and said, “I don’t want to speak about that. If she wants, she would tell you about her life. But anyway, I think it’s time for us to board the place,” 

She said as she stood up.

‘Huh?’ my mouth went agape when I saw how she avoided the question, but my eyes turned towards the gate where a huge queue was set up for boarding the plane.

I sighed and stood up as I followed Tanya to stand in the queue as we waited for our turn.

Honestly, all these things were really difficult for me to digest. I somehow couldn’t accept the fact that there are even planes in this world. However, almost seventy percent of the population are non-power users and it is the only way of transportation.

But in this world where we have hovering cars, how different a plane would be. Curiosity welled up in my heart as we slowly strolled towards the staff who were checking the boarding pass.

All this time, Tanya didn’t even tell me anything about the destination. I am just blindly following her. Curiosity took over me as I patted her shoulders.

“Tanya,”

“Huh?” She looked surprised at me when she turned around.

“You know, till now, I don’t know our destination,” I asked as we slowly walked forward.

“Oh!,” she exclaimed. As she nodded her head in understanding.

As I was waiting for her to tell me about the place we were traveling to, I heard her voice.

“You don’t have to know anything about it now. You will be surprised when we reach there,”

My jaw fell down when I heard her reply. I could even hear Eve’s laugh inside my mind.

‘What is she playing at?’ I shook my head as I stood straight as my eyes were greeted by the sight of staff who were checking the passes.

As our turn came, the man who was checking the pass was rooted on the spot for a moment, when he looked at Tanya. 

“Your pass please,” He mumbled as his eyes were fixed on Tanya.

My eyebrows were raised, but I suddenly felt an urge to laugh. That guy didn’t know whom he was trying to impress.

And as expected, just as Tanya handed him the passes, his face turned strange when he looked at two passes in his hand. Then he looked up as his eyes fixed on mine.

I suddenly smiled as I embraced Tanya by the shoulders and I strolled forward.

That man had a dumbfounded expression on his face when he looked at me. He would really curse himself that he dared to flirt with a girl who came with me. 

From the time I stood up to stand in the queue, I was the point of attraction of many ladies who were standing in the same queue. Some of them even smiled at me.

Even though I hugged Tanya, she said nothing, but after some time an Enormous Thing appeared in front of me.
