Elena's POV
"Why?"
I mumbled weakly while standing up from the bench. In this very moment, I have lived all the memories with him from the start to the end.
Yes, for me this is the end as I always wanted my story to end on a happy note so I try not to remember what happened the next morning as my heart clenches by its mere thought.
I could see into his eyes that he has also lived those days again in the same moment.
As I stood to face him, the little boy ran away with the ball. My eyes hardened as I want to show him how much I hate him now and his eyes that held love before were now aching for some kind of revenge.
"Why?" I asked again this time louder and sternly "Why have you came back now?" My eyes that held thousand of questions narrowed a little "To reopen the old wound? Hunh?"
"Wounds? I was here to see how far you could go for money" he smirked finally speaking

Is everything fine?" Raphael asked when he found his wife low in energy. "I just get tired of running behind the culprit all day long" she answered him. "Culprit?" His eyebrows knitted in confusion "When did you join the police?" He asks still standing on the door.

The anxiety and nervousness are at their peak. My palms and feet are numb and my head is so full of thoughts that I can't think anything specific. The only thing that my heart is chanting like a mantra is that every time this day should not turn out to be a dream. I want it to be a reality. Strong emotions have overpowered me, making me feel surreal. We have kept the wedding very simple as our families are small. My family has arrived two days back and Raphael has invited a few of his colleagues to attend the wedding.

He was trying to eat with his left hand.After giving it a thought, I decided to go into his room. The ignoring game is not going to work for long.He

I never thought even in my worst nightmare that he can trade his mother for money and love. This is not the person whom I loved and if this is his real face then I am not going to accept him in any way. I flinched at my place at the gunshot and snapped my head in the direction of the voice and found Xaphan standing there with a gun pointed towards the sky, firing in the air. He was looking drunk as his eyes were bloodshot red and his knees were wobbling. He was not able to stand still on his feet. He yelled like a beast and pointed his gun towards Lucifer. "How dare you?" He roared, clasping the gun with both hands and making the balance. "Put the gun down, Xaphan" Lucifer instructed. But he was too high to give heed to anything.
