Kiara point of view….
My throat went dry, the way his eyes narrowed and glared me, I was almost on the verge of passing out. He is handsome, six pack abs, challenging personality but the thing that makes everyone hate him is his nature. That bully nature. Even today when the old friends or old classmates accidentally stumble by and see him, they sweat only by getting a glimpse of his face.
The time really had flown by but his old self still holds that dread that can kill anyone!
“I…. I” I fumbled.
He slightly bobbed his head allowing me to go further unfortunately, I did not know where to start from. His eyes were enough for me to start sweating!
Honestly I was never courageous enough to open my mouth in front of him. He threatened me like the monster of any horror movie with disgusting teeth, long nails and lips covered with sticky drool. Yuck!!!!
I could not take my stand ever just because of this imagination of mine towards his personality! He motioned me with a light nod to go on. And I could not for my voice was gone. I could not speak any way in front of him.
He waited for a minute or two until, “Fine, this is the first and last time I am letting you go. Don’t you dare to be extra smart in front of me” He sighed freeing my hand. I held my heart thanking my stars.
However, I wonder how on earth did he become so understanding that he let me go without any punishment? In the college he would, not on any cost let any student go without having them answering his questions. Even if he was satisfied with their answers, he would end up giving them the life long threatening memories.
“You really have changed? I can’t believe it.”… I murmured.
He looked down at my face like a tall man looks down for a kid listening to her words. I backed away moving near my room’s door again to me on safer side that if he does anything then I can at least run in and get myself locked until Raven comes.
Rather, he does something I could have never thought him doing so, “Come on we are playing UNO” I was dragged by my elbow unless we came to the hall that has the Uno cards already distributed for two people with two bottle of soft drink and KFC chicken buckets.
Uno!!! Really he wants to play Uno with me?
Gosh, I was just loosing my mind, nothing else. Everything that was happening to me right now was too alien to believe on. I got to marry my freaking ex boyfriend who I loved like my heart beats, then we moved in together in a new bungalow he bought for us and now I was sitting across his bully brother on the floor with Uno cards in my hands playing with him even though I did not want to.
I was liking it. At least this life was better than my life before marriage. I would only have been sitting in my room during weekend, think about the past, cry on emptiness and hollowness in my life and sleep. I was now being able to live my life properly like a living being.
“Uno?”… I announced, I was left with only a Single card that was too the ‘Plus 4’ card.
I cannot suppress my chuckles seeing Girard face. Through out the round I made him take so many cards and now he had a whole bunch of them while here I was sitting on Uno. “Hmm you look dumb but you are freaking intelligent!” I don’t know whether it was his compliment or taunt, yet whatever it was I whole heartedly accepted it for his idiotic expressions were worth watching.
Girard thought for so much time as to what should he do next, and then he threw a ‘Plus4’ card on me. I pretended to be very sad where from within only I know how happy I was. “You might be intelligent, but I am an ace in playing Uno? No one can win this game against me.” He self praised himself and I rolled my eyes.
“Come on, take it.” He took a sip from his soft drink laying down on his elbow partially. I nodded in yes that he proudly pulled his collars nevertheless the next moment when I threw my plus 4 cards on the floor he screamed loudly hitting his head in defeat.
Gosh I was damn happy. “Freaking hell? How is that even possible?” he exclaimed. The guy who had always troubled me in the college was now sitting in front of me like a loser! I did a happy dance running all around in the house shouting loudly ‘I won! I won!’ And there, he like the stupidest person that he is, preferred to eat chicken rolling his eyes.
I twirled and whirled around everywhere in the house. There was no stopping to my excitement until, “Ahhhawww Kiara? Not again” I covered my mouth in fear because I knocked Raven down in happiness!
He sat on the floor balancing his weight on his elbow while his phone was lying on the floor beside him. Raven caressed his butt wincing in pain.
“Ohh!Kiara, you are really a trouble making ass!”
“I am sorry I am Sorry I am sorrrryyyy.” I bent down pulling Raven to sit straight, I can see he hurt his back.
Girard was enjoying the scene eating now from, what the fuck, my bucket, shamelessly. He was on his stomach resting on a big fat feathery pillow that I bought.“Will you ever sit quietly or is it necessary for you to create mess around. Around me, to be precise?” he rubbed his left arm.
“I am sorry actually I was too happy to see you coming in.” I told him rubbing along on the affected area. “You know I defeated your rowdy brother today. He is so dumb I am telling you.” I laughed on my own joke whispering the last sentence near his ear while there, my laughs faded away within a second realizing that, Raven was intently gazing my face as if he has never seen me ever before.
I stilled, my heart beats started to grip the pace. His eyes never left mine and the expression he held were like stomach churning.
Author’s point of view…
Kiara looked down sensing her cheeks turning red over his burning gaze however what she didn’t know was the inner turmoil that was playing inside of him.
“He is not dumb Kiara, you are too innocent that you can’t understand the difference in his behavior. You didn’t defeat him, he purposely lose the game so that you can win!” Raven spoke to himself looking towards Girard who smiled with hands raised high up in surrender.
Raven caught him?
The two brothers talked using only their eyes that poor Kiara could hardly understand anything. The two of them smiled, looked down then sometimes at Kiara then finally at her finger that has his ring on it. It was the proposal ring that Raven gave her years ago while proposing her.
She still, has it?
He was intrigued to see her affection towards him. In spite of experiencing the worst of heart break, unexpected betrayal and his cruelty she was still ready to love him madly. Indeed, Raven rejected one of the most precious gifts of the life he was presented with, by God.
“It still hurts?” She inquired with a pout again hanging on his shoulder. This act of hers made Raven to pull her close and kiss her forehead affectionately.
“Nope, not like before.” He replied hugging her close to his heart.
Agreed he took some of the most nonsensical decisions in life yet it was not too late to mend things right? Uhh… maybe that is why now Kiara was standing in his arms being hugged tightly because he understood her worth in his life.
Or maybe because of something else?—Uhh, only God knows.
Tbc…

Raven was in the wash room changing his clothes. While Kiara stood across the balcony enjoying the beautiful scenery there, many a thoughts struck her mind!The month of October with winters approaching was best. The heater was on, how everything unlike a new couple’s bed, their bed was not decorated with flowers! There were no fragrance candles too.

CHAPTER 11Confession.Raven’s point of view…Her skin was as soft as silk. The more close I held her the more I craved her skin. She has not changed even a bit.

They wanted to own her as theirs but I got to mark her with my name.I met her on the college gate for the first time. It was her first day, she was a transfer and the topper of her state who was given the opportunity to study in our esteemed institute. Her first gaze was magical. It was enough to bring someone like me on his knees.She spelled me such that I ended up proposing her.I ravished her skin as much as I can. She never permitted me to go beyond neck kisses that was frustrating, but having her so close— was like a dream come true. Where in the college all the ot

The white shining flooring has the reflection of all the objects kept in the room. His big fledged room with a massive foyer, a comfy set of peach colored sofas, and the teak wood furniture with white paint complimented the room well.There was floor to ceiling long balcony curtained with shady curtains while the ceilings dim lights made everything clear that there was no one else other than her in the room.

CHAPTER 13His outburst!Author’s point of view…It was 7.00 in the morning when Girard and Raven decided to take a leave from the hospital. Billy though could not get relief from his pain but as for now he was sleeping peacefully under the effects of sedatives. Once he was peacefully taken over by the slumber, the appointed officers allowed Raven to only see him through the circular mirror built in the door.His parents, Mr. And Mrs. Carter were sitting next to little boy on the either side on the stools. They were not so old, their physical appearance— pleasing and impressive. While Mr. Hardin Carter was dressed in his suit, there Mrs. Kelly Carter seemed beautiful in her night gown. She was time to time caressing baby Carter’s hair adoring his pallid face. On the contrary, Mr. Carter tiringly sighed, he was in his formal clothes indicating h

Raven immediately left after that incident and right now only Kiara was left in the house with her cruel husband’s bully brother who was proving out to be her only company now.Having settled together on the breakfast table, they silently sat not uttering even a single word. She was lost in her reverie crying her heart out quietly while her brother-in-law sat there watching her longingly. “What is wrong with him? What is he hiding from me, and you?” Girard was playing with a fork until he heard her heavy voice clearly indicating her agony.Although he thanked the lord that she at least s

CHAPTER 15Disturbed souls.Author’s point of view…There has to be at least some space for a person to be able to breathe unfortunately, for Girard, it seems as if he was locked in a square shaped room that hardly had a steps distance around. His throat turned as dry as desert while his eyes filled up with new badge of tears. Having mixed emotions of fear, regret, anxiety and serenity going through him, he looked nowhere but her face.On the other hand, she only smiled. A smile that said so many things yet nothing. Kiara was baffled to see him in such state. Never have she ever in her entire life thought that she will one day get to see her bully crying like that in front of her. The sight was amusing but still saddening.The two of them stood face to face staring each other. Even not for a nano second did their eyes diverted or blinked. Such a cri

Was that even true or was he just hallucinating to hear his voice! Wasn’t he in the hospital admitted.Uhh, may be he was perfectly alright as said by his brother and was back to him!Or you can say his grandparents bought him here so that he can meet his father?There were many questions rising in his head— some good and some bad. However, he did not even think about Kiara for a moment. He was too happy to have his baby back that he completely forgot about her. He forgot that still she was unaware to that innocent secret of his life and there are chances that she might end up separating away from him!

He in fact he kneaded his together with force in order to rub off the hallucination, if it was any.Albeit, it was not!He took few steps forward roaming around in the place. There was not even any path to follow— just an empty land that ran white in the front as long as eyes could catch the glimpse of it. He slightly rubbed his hands together feeling cold.The temperature has gone down all of a sudden. He looked around albeit to find none unless, “Dadda!” He looked everywhere, in all the four directions looking to for the source of the voi

She suddenly felt like a fish drawn out of the water and thrown of muddy ground to suffer.She was still in daze that her eyes several times blinked. Had she imagined him saying that! She asked herself while her lung blew and such long breaths. Raven though was not in any mood of pretending it was her imagination. The way he got back on his legs and faced the open windows of their room, his tongue spoke again, "I just proved your swears wrong, Kiara. You said you were pure, didn't you? If you were pure why would you yearn to my sexual advances like that" he raised his eye brow giving her thought looks.Kiara wh

There was nothing he could say as his son was actually crying because her uncle Girard has held him within his arms not letting him go to his mamma. She was on the bed looking extremely sick with red eyes and yellowish pale skin. There was a bottle of glucose hanging on the bedside while the pipe kept attached to the back of her wrist.
