A Brand New Start

Chapter One (The Encounter)

It was a great day in Paradise City. The weather was sunny with air temperature around 48 degrees. Sheyg rushed his car through the Sunday traffic on South Bay Expressway. He had to pick up an important person at Paradise International Airport.

"Come on, man. Don't let the traffic slow you down." He said.

Two hours earlier, Sheyg made a promise to pick that person up at the airport around eleven o' clock. But now, the time showed 10: 40.

"Still have time to catch up to airport."

From his location to airport, the distance was still around 5.1 miles. Exiting South Bay Expressway, he picked the pace up and increased his speed from 40 to 55 miles per hour down the White Mountain Drive.

"With this pace, I should be able to reach airport on time."

White Mountain Drive is the only available way to get to airport. Even though it was the only access to airport, White Mountain Drive was not really congested. The traffic was quite fluent even when peak hours since most of the passengers from airport were driving to the neighboring city, Fairhaven. Yes, Paradise International Airport was used by two cities around it, Paradise City and Fairhaven City but mostly used by people from Fairhaven rather than Paradise citizen.

Sheyg finally arrived at airport 10 minutes earlier than the promised time. He parked his car and headed to the International terminal.

"It's easy to know where you're heading since the airport only has one international terminal."

Although the airport's name was Paradise International Airport, it actually only had one international terminal of all five terminals it had. The other four were domestic terminal.

Then suddenly, "Your attention, please. Plane Sunshine Air flight number XX-XXXX leaving from Tokyo has successfully landed."

"Looks like it's my ticket to greet her."

Did he say "her"? Yes, he did. The important person Sheyg wanted to pick up was a she. After a short waiting, he spotted the lady he was waiting among the arriving passengers. She was a young lady aged around 21, two years younger than him. Her height was around 5'3" with a very slim figure. A face like an angel although by her pointed ears, everyone could tell that she was from demon race.

Then he quickly shouted," Nerine, Nerine Forbesii. Over here!"

Nerine then spotted him and walked towards him. "Are you Sheyg Thomas?" She said with a very polite manner.

'My goodness, Not only she's pretty by her figures. Her voice was also beautiful.' He thought.

"Um, sorry, Sir, sir, Are you ok?" She politely asked.

"Yeah, yeah, I'm okay."

"Are you Sheyg Thomas?"

"Yes, I am. Wow. I lost my ground upon seeing you. You're um…. Beautiful."

"Thank you."

"Let me carry your stuffs to my car." He said as he lifted Nerine's belongings.
