Walking home from school was always a sinking feeling for her heart. But today it was different, Every step she took reminded her of her sprained ankle and an empty stomach.
Her brown hair reaching her shoulders were all tangled, her face looked pale, her lips, nose, and cheeks seemed to have become a deeper shade of pink and her hazel eyes were so dark they could be brown. Her blue sweater wasn't helping with the cold and her feet were heavy like logs of wood. Her ankle strained everytime she put her weight on it causing her to hiss and wince at the pain
The snow was thick, she kept her eyes on her feet and focused on the number of steps she took because she knew that if she would look up her eyes would give her away. She knew that if she started crying she won't be able to stop. The burning in her chest was getting hotter every moment, the knots in her stomach getting tighter. 48. 49. 50...57.. 59... 72... 104. She counted. Her breathing getting faster by the second. Her head pounded and rang like a doorbell.
Before she knew her eyes filled up. As she tried to stop herself she was already on her knees, hands covering her face, she was crying and sobbing, even beneath the afternoon sun, everything looked gloomy, dark.
Between her sobs she whispered, "mom, please come back, how will I ever tell belle that her mom is dead? How will I go through school, college ?..how am I supposed to accept this?..mom". It is never easy to lose someone we love, but this 15-year-old lost her mom, the very lady who was supposed to help her grow and become a young lady, love her, teach her, scold her...but now it was all lost she was gone.
Rosette couldn't bring herself to imagine her life without her mom. She stared at the snow covering her black leggings, she didn't care about the cold biting on her fingers, she just sat there on her knees and cried, cried till her eyes burn and her face became red. She thought about her fathers face and how it had lost all its charm overnight. she was scared for her little sister who knew nothing of the world. she thought and thought till the snow was knitting itself in her knees with cold jaws.
She was scared and broken inside but she knew that when she will walk through the doors of her house she'll have to be brave, if not for herself then for her sister. If that little girl who had now placed her faith in her teenage sister, saw her cry she'd shatter like glass.
Libelle is just 10, how would she ever get over this .. will she be able to be the happy cheerful girl she always was.. would she be able to love and care about anyone without the fear of losing them ..without having a feeling that any moment they wish she could vanish from her life.
These were the thoughts that were haunting her. She thought all this was about her sister but little did she know she was also talking about herself. Love had become a fleeting feeling for her.
A constant fear of loss.

CAELUM'S POV":Working was always the best thing I could do, these files that I had been checking had been edited so well that it had been so much easier to review them. I really wanted to know who wrote it. I rang the small bell on my desk, a moment later my assistant was standing outside knocking at the door."Come in Angela""Anything you need boss?" she also meowed in her seductive voice.I gave her a disgusted look and asked "Who edited these files?""I did sir. Aren't they good?" she smiled obnoxiously bright for someone who was outrightly lying.Just by looking at her freshly manicured nails, I could tell that she hadn't touched the keyboard in a while, which didn't really bother me because the only reason I kept her around was due to her ability to get work done. She was good at manipulating people into doing the work she assigned and keep a tab on everything including my work meetings.I gave her a cold look, her smile crumbled from her glossy lips. Today she had crossed her

She had kept her makeup to a minimum and stained her lips a soft pinkish color. Eric looked at her hungrily from the dining table while she arranged the plates.The stare was enough to make her flinch but she dare not do so with Amy around. Her dad was about to come back home. Amy came down the stairs wearing an emerald green colored dress. It hugged her curves just right but the dress wasn't much fitting for a family dinner. Eric wore an olive suit with peach pants and a white shirt. Just then they heard the screech of tires on the gravel outside. Their dad was home. "Is everything ready dear?" Dad came into the room, smiling, and looked at all of us."Yes, dad everything looks lavish and delicious here. I don't think anyone can tell differently" Eric said while

CAELUM'S POV:I never wanted to come to this useless diner meeting, but who would have thought that even one of the biggest business tycoons would dread an old lady's words.I was so sure that I would be bored to death in this meeting, but then again what choice did I have. Grams made the last call and when I say anything is better than making her angry then grovelling to seek her forgiveness I mean it. When we entered I had a certain picture of this family as grams had associated herself with it. When I saw Mr. Carter, I thought that this family would be a finery, but when I was greeted by his wife, I was more than disgusted. She shook hands with me and rubbed her thumb in a weird way on the back of my thumb while pulling away from the hand. Like hell, I knew what her intentions were. Then coming to her son, Eric carter looked nothing like his father. I did know that Mr. Carter had remarried after the death of his first wife, but this looked disgusting.When he said he had two daug
