6 YEARS LATER The soothing wind of the autumn brushed past the busy streets. Every moving creature craves to return to the comfort of its house. Except for one person, who sat with his heart warmed up for an arrival he awaited. His eyes wandered from place to place trying to take in every bit of the place, to be able to put it down his memory lane as a remarkable day. A day to remember on days of the missing comfort. Impatience was all he felt, cursing at the time for moving so slow. Showing his full anger towards the roads which delayed the presence of the one he begged to meet. It's been six years. No contact. Both are busy in their own lives trying not to care about each other's lives. When one might have succeeded in the race but the other seemed to have horribly failed. Maybe, he didn't even try to. The atmosphere got comforting and lively the moment his eyes fell upon the café door which opened with a woman coming in with a smile. She smiled at the workers who had returned th

Rosalina POV:It was a gloomy and cloudy morning. The rain was torrential. The surrounding was tranquil and the only sound that could be heard was the rain enveloping the ground into its embrace. The weather was quite comfortable. The sight of the trees getting refreshed by the touch of rain and dancing in the directions of the wind was mesmerizing. Even though the morning was gloomy but I enjoyed that kind of weather.I looked up at the clock and saw it was 6:30 am.'I am early' I thought.As much as I enjoy sleeping but waking up early in the morning was a routine. I prefer to utilize my time rather than wasting it by fooling around, not that I have anybody to fool around with. I decided to get up and get dressed for school.Since it was a cold day I decided to wear something simple and comfortable. So I chose something like it.Makeup was never my thing as it made me feel heavy and I couldn’t apply i
Rosalina POV:The bell rang and it was time for recess. As usual, I was walking alone as I have been for the past years. I reached my locker to get my earphones. I grabbed them and straight went to the roof to calm my mind. I sat there and listened to the melodious music while enjoying the view of the cloudy weather.I was sitting alone until someone came and sat beside me. I did not bother to look as I knew who it was. I was getting myself ready to hear his demeaning words. Then the person spoke"Do you always come here during recess?" The person saidI looked at the person startled. To my surprise, it was not who I thought it would be. It was the new guy. I was expecting it to be Jaxon as he comes and insults me sometimes when I am on the roof."Yes," I responded calmly"Nice," He saidThere was a long silence after that, then he spoke again"So have you thought about it?" He saidJAX
Rosalina POVI was speechlessly gazing at the mobile screen. Tears of pain started to stream down my eyes. Then my phone vibrated signalling I have a notification. I opened my phone and saw a text saying'Are you okay?'I was confused. Wondering who sent it, I replied immediately out of curiosity and panic.'Who are you? How did you get my number? Who gave it to you? And also how do you know about what happened?'After a while, the person replied saying.'Woah so many questions. You are one curious lady aren't you?''Answer my questions I commanded him or herThe person replied'Alright. Answer 1: I am someoneAnswer 2: I have my waysAnswer 3: A human being Answer 4: The social media and even if you don't have an account I am sure you somehow saw it.'
JAXON POVI was about to turn and leave when I heard a scream making me flinch.For a moment I got confused as to who was screaming and then I realized the voice sounded familiar.Rosalina…Not giving it a second thought I ran back to her house. As I was about to enter I see the door is closed.Getting frustrated I started banging on the door. I kept thudding on it harshly and hitting it with my arm, kicking it but nothing worked. This is some good material.Then it hit my head that her house has a back door.'Maybe that is open' I thoughtWith the thought in my mind and hands trembling I went towards the back of the house where the door was located. My hands touched the doorknob and turned it.It was OPEN! I quickly entered the house and saw the mess. My heartbeat began to escalate due to fear. I carefully went through the house, observing everything. I started to look fo
JAXON POV:"So miss innocent... Ring a bell when I say 'James'" I spoke to Rosalina dauntingly.I expected Rosalina to give me a proper reaction but rather than a shocked face her face reflected bewilderment which in turn got me confused. Then she spoke"He is your friend right?" She said raising an eyebrow"Correction! Was!" I said"Yeah, you two had some kind of fight and then you broke off," She said"And after I stopped being friends with him, you took an advantage of the situation that we won't talk to each other anymore and had slept with him as you did with every other," I said in a serious and attacking tone.There was a moment of silence. A look of absolute confusion and anger flashed through her face as she looked at me while I tore her down with my scrutinizing gaze. The density of the air thickened with every movement the larger hand of the clock made. Tension built in my core making me fee
JAXON POV:I was furious after the incident that had happened with Rosalina. What a heartless person she is who without any hesitation she just accepted all her unforgivable sins. What is wrong with her?! She did not even bother apologizing and rather began rambling in a somewhat psychotic tone. But for some reason, the pain in her eyes was as vivid as the view of scenery before one’s eyes. After I revealed the truth rather than a shocked expression, her face was varnished with disappointment. I shrugged off the thought and continued my journey.I wanted to clear my mind which was messed thanks to Rosalina. I think going to a bar may help.JEREMY POV:It was a hectic day for me. Classes, practice, and assignments were all eating my head out. After a long and comforting shower, I sat on my bed with my phone just to enjoy my leisure time before diving into sleep.I was scrolling through my social
