"Barry, how many times will you call me? I will be there in half an hour!" I said into my phone.
"HALF AN HOUR????" he repeated my words.
I laughed and said, "Barry, it will take time for me to reach there. I'm not fast like you, I use a car and the car is slower than you. Be patient."I said smiling.
"But..." he was saying when I interrupted him, "Barry, bye." I said laughing and hang up the call.
I went inside the photo studio.
"Is my photo frame ready?"I asked the person at the counter.
"Yes, miss. Here." he said and handed me a photo frame.
It was a picture of me and Barry.
I smiled and said, "Please, wrap it." He nodded and took the frame.
I am going to Barry's house for dinner. So, I thought I will gift him something. I am wearing the red dress that I bought in Singapore. He will be happy to see me in this. I blushed to imagine his reaction.
"Here." he gave me the wra
Rosy's POV :I came back home after meeting Barry. I closed my eyes and sighed."Are you alright, Rosy?" he asked me.I opened my eyes to look at him standing in front of me and nodded."I'm sorry, Eric. You had to do all this for me."I said looking down."Hey! Rosy, I love you! I can do anything for you! You are the love of my life and also my wife." he said smiling and hugged me.I hugged him back smiling, happy to be with him."You have lied Barry about yourself. He misunderstood everything about you." he said still hugging me."It's ok. I don't care. I am happy that he is happy at last. Now, I am free from my guilt."I said holding him more tightly and relaxed.He smiled.I am Rosy, a hundred-year-old vampire.I was the only daughter of a magistrate. My parents loved me so much. But, then suddenly my fath
Ring... Ring...My phone rang.I smiled to see who was calling and answered."Hello!!! Rosy!!!" I said smiling."Happy anniversary!!!!!" Rosy and Eric said together."Thank you so much!!!"I said smiling brightly.Just then Barry came into the room."So, where are the love birds this time to celebrate their silver jubilee?" she asked."In a forest." I said making a face and looked at Barry."What??? In a forest???" she asked shocked.I was about to reply when Barry took my phone from my hand and said into the phone, "Rosy, let us celebrate our special day. Bye."He hangs up the call and looked at me.I looked away."Let's go. I have something to show you." he said and stretched his hand to me smiling.I sighed and took his hand and got up from our bed to stand on my feet.When we came out of the main door, he li
I am standing on the bridge looking at the cold waters below. The water seems to be calling me. It's time to pay for all the mistakes I have made this past year. I have to end all the pain that's in my heart. I was about to jump when I heard someone say; "Hey! What are you doing? Thinking of jumping? Ending your precious life?" I turned to my left and saw a handsome guy of around my age standing ten steps away from me. He too was looking at the waters below. Why is he here? I was curious so I asked him, "Why do you want to know? Are you planning to jump too?" He turned to face me. It was dark there but I can still see his handsome face. For some reason, he looked shocked and surprised. I waited for him to reply but he just stared at me. So I said, "Yes, I am going to jump but what are you doing here?" At last, he composed himself and replied, "No, I'm not
Barry's POV It was a usual day for me. I had nothing to do. This is common when you have lived for 100 years or just alive. So, I decided to take a tour of the city which is my usual habit at night. So, I started running enjoying the cold night wind on my face. I am Barry. A hundred-year-old vampire with super speed, super eyesight, super hearing, and whatnot. Being a vampire gives you so many powers...superpowers. I see a girl standing on the bridge looking down; maybe she is planning to jump. I can pass my time today by talking to her. I will help her if I can and if she doesn't want my help then she can do whatever she wants, who am I to stop her? I went near her and stood a few steps away from her and looking at the waters below. I asked her, "Hey! What are you doing here? Thinking of jumping? Ending your precious life? " I saw from the corner of my
Jane's POV: I was staring at him. He looked concerned. Now, I noticed how handsome he is. His handsome face was breathtaking and his blue eyes were concerned; but why? And how did he save me? I was wrapped in his arms. I shook all the thoughts away and pushed him hard. He let me go. I shouted at him, "You saved me, how dare you? Didn't I tell you to leave! I am not the one you knew yet you interfered in my plan to die. I am not her, I am Jane! Jane Macarove! Do you understand that I failed in my attempt to end my life just because of you? Do you know how much courage it takes for someone to decide and try to end their life? I don't want to see you ever again in my whole life! " He looked hurt and tried to say something but I stopped him, turned around and ran. I ran as fast as I could let my tears fall freely. When I couldn't run anymore, I started walking slowly. I saw a bar
Barry's POV : I was waiting for her to answer, concerned but she did keep staring at me. Then suddenly she tried to push me so, I let her go. She shouted at me angrily, "You saved me, how dare you? Didn't I tell you to leave! I am not the one you knew yet you interfered in my plan to die. I am Jane! Jane Macarove! Do you know I failed in my attempt to end my life just because of you? Do you know how much courage it takes for someone to decide and try to end their life? I don't want to see you ever again in my whole life!" Then she turned around and ran away. I was hurt not because of her words but because she was hurt. But, why? Why does it concern me this much? Why does it hurt to see her hurt? I never felt like this not even for Rosy. I hardly know her and her sadness concerns me this much, why? I want these answers and the answers for the questions she refused to tell me.
I woke up to find myself in my bed. But, how did I get here? I was drinking at the bar. Was that all a dream? But my head is hurting like hell. I check my hand, it's scratched. So, it was real. But how did I get here? Maybe I am not a bad drinker and I managed to come back home by myself. Mark must have lied to me; he had always lied to me. I suddenly remembered that he saved me, that stupid guy. I really don't wanna see his face ever again. I got up from my bed angrily and shook my head to clear my mind. I shouldn't think about him, anyway I won't meet him again. And now I should get ready I have a job. But before that, I have something to do. I took out all the pics of Mark tore them and burned them. I also deleted all his pics from my phone. I don't want him or his photos or his memories in my life. I sighed and closed my eyes for some time. Then I went to take a quick shower and got dressed. I'm not hungry so I
"Jane! Jane!" Emma and Lily came running to me when I reached the restaurant. "What happened?" I asked tensely."Someone bought the restaurant and our new owner will be coming any minute!"Lily said tensed."What if he changes the staff? I don't want us to separate."Emma said with tears in her eyes."Emma, nothing like that is going to happen. Trust me we will work here or anywhere else but together." I said hugging her.Lily hugged us both.I was tensed too but I don't want to think anything negative. Everyone was here and they were all tensed.Just then a guy in a black suit came in. He was handsome with black hair, brown eyes, and a handsome face. He scanned the restaurant thoroughly and then cleared his throat and said, "Excuse me, I am John. I want all the staff to assemble here and stand in a line. Sir is going to be here in few minutes."We all stood side by side in a line. John was at t
