1 Week Later:- After trying my best to get a normal conversation out of her, it all ended up in vain. Our talk may start with random things but end with her mock. I am trying to get to know her and after sharing a few conversations with her. I came to know that her way of talking is very tricky. She spoke deeply and understood it was beyond my capabilities most of the time. Her words held profound meanings, which are similar to a riddle. Maybe I should tell her straightforwardly that I want to know her and want to give our relationship a chance. “I get it, we cannot love each other but we can at least live our lives on good terms for whatever time we have left.” I muttered
Rebecca POV:-Ryan took it all wrong, I didn't mean it to do it. I can be anything but I can't be a cheater. His words hit me like an arrow as I felt I am immersing deeper into despair."You have proven that nothing but hate is present between us." He said and pushed me away.“Mr Knight-”Before I could say anything in my defense, he left. His tears..He was crying.I broke his heart. I destroyed the house he was trying to build. I shattered the dreams he began to think with me.
“Noo!” I woke up screaming, holding my chest to breath with tears blurring my vision.“No, No, It’s not me.” I whispered in a broken voice.I ran out of the room and looked for Ryan desperately.“It’s not me, I swear.”I lost my breath as it began to suffocate me. Tears brimmed in my eyes as my mind was clouded with terror.My hands and feet turned cold along with cold sweat over my forehead.I entered his studies and saw him leaning on the table, one hand over his face, covering his face while his other hand was resting on the table.He looked like a complete mess, mess
Before my mind could register anything further than this, he picked me a bridal style.“Ryan!” A gasp escaped my lips as my heart skipped a beat. I wrapped my arms around his neck and looked at him innocently.“Shh. Don’t talk.”He looked at me with a hint of something darkly beautiful as we began to walk. I buried my face in his chest and closed my eyes.The melodious sound of his heartbeat gave me utmost serenity, I smiled genuinely, blushing furiously in his arm, drowning in this presence.I found myself losing in his lull and before I knew it, he placed me gently on the bed of our room.“So you burned them?” He asked,
Ryan POV:-‘Oh Lord… where did my emotions lead me?’Sunlight penetrated through the curtains, igniting our room. I slowly opened my eyes and adjusted my vision.I let out a yawn, feeling tired and plopped on my elbows. I turned to my side and saw Rebecca sleeping beside me, peacefully.“Hey…” I whispered.A smile crept upon my lips when I looked at her. My heart began to beat fast, feeling strange happiness inside me as last night's events came to my mind.I moved my hand close to her face and tugged the strand of her hair falling on her face behind her ears.“You are irresistibly
She got ready, coming out of the bathroom after her bath, getting ready as I continued to watch her intensely until she came closer and sat on the bed, looking at the bangles on her hand.I scooted closer to her, not preferring distances from her anymore. I also looked at her hands and began to say."Your hands were empty so I thought I could…" I trailed off and she began to say,"I love bangles, bracelets and any jewelry to wear on hand." She said with a smile. I also smiled back and looked at her.“It looks beautiful on you.” I whispered sincerely.“Thanks.” She smiled sheepishly.She also turned to look at me too as we star
These thoughts caused chaos in my mind as I lost my ability to think and filled up with ultimate consternation. My heart, in that moment, I desired nothing but to become the light of her dark sky. I wanted to become the hand she can hold onto and never let it go. “What have you done to yourself, Rebecca?” I asked myself in fright.I wanted the spark of hope which will ignite that endless fire of happiness in her now. All this time, I pushed her away, now she needs me and I will not back away now.“Why?” I don't know about love but I will surely become her salvation. And I understood it's not our unsavory redemption but her unsavory redemption.Like the more she tries to isolate herself from me the more I'll reach out to her. “I won’t let you reside there anymore.” I'll stir her mind as she won't be able to push me away even if she wants to and I'll be the one she strives for.‘I'll become her redemption.’I walked down and looked at her, since today is Saturday, I am home and I
Rebecca POV:-‘Am I making the right choice by taking Ryan along?’My heart felt faint as extreme dread took over my mind, mixing up my emotions and not letting me think. I began to tremble as unwanted thoughts of despair blended in.Pushing deeper into the depths of turmoil, my grip on Ryan's hand tightened.“It’s alright, Rebecca.”I shut my eyes as my breath became heavy, my heart felt like pricking as the images of the day Jane died came to my mind.“No, it’s not.” I whispered. Tears pricked in the corner of my eyes, my distressed form couldn't even comprehend anything.
