Samuel moved Gaura away from his chest and stared at her face. It was covered with tears but she looked peaceful while sleeping. She was exhausted physically and emotionally.Samuel lifted her in his arms and took her to the bed. He gently put her in the bed and then laid next to her. Pulling her closer to him, he kissed her forehead. He protectively hugged her and closed his eyes as he was tired too...............Gaura rolled on the bed and slowly opened her eyes. It took her few minutes to remember what happened last night and she sat up with a jerk. Knowing that there was no way she could do anything, she combed her hair with her fingers and got out of the bed. She took her clothes and walked towards the bathroom.She didn't know how long she stayed under the shower as her mind was fill with all the thoughts she had to do next but still she was unable to make a decision.She came out while drying her hair with a towel and found Samuel sitting on the couch while waiting for her.S
"Daddy, I want this flower." Gaura shouted to get her father's attention who was trimming rose plant."No, Gaura." His father glanced at her while she pouted and tried to break the big red rose. The moment she held the stem she shrieked as few thorn pierced in her hand.Her father threw the tools and tried to help her but she didn't let go of the stem."Gaura, leave it. You are only hurting yourself."Gaura sniffed while her eyes were full of tears."But daddy, I want it.""Come on. Listen to me. Let it go." Gaura slowly opened her fingers and let go of the stem. Her father lifted her in his arms and brought her to a nearby bench. He took her hand in his and examined her wound."See, you didn't want to let go and now you hurt yourself. Gaura, sometime it's better to let go of the things which hurt you the most.""But daddy, it won't hurt me it you trim the thorn." She objected while Mr Brown smiled."But what's the benefit. It will die in your hands.""But it will die there too." Gau
Gaura was lazily sitting on the couch while her eyes followed her father who was leaving for the office. He didn't look at her and this broke her heart.It's been three days since she came to her house and Samuel didn't stop her either but her father was angry over her decision of coming home.Few minutes later, her mother came and sat beside her who immediately hugged her mother."He is still angry with me." She sobbed while her mother patted her head softly. "Are you going to talk to Ronnie? He already came many times and....""Please mom." She tightened her grip on her mother."I can't....""You can't keep doing that. You need to face it.""But mom....""No but, you are my brave little girl and I believe you. No matter what you decide, just remember that we love you and we are always with you." Gaura smiled while looking at her mother's face."I love you mom.""I love you too my little flower. "At the same time, a maid entered and informed them that Ronnie was outside as he want
Samuel sat back while Gaura was still holding his wrist. Seeing him sitting back, Gaura confusingly looked at him."Aren't you going?""You are holding my hand. How can I go?""Just pull it. I won't hold onto it forever.""I am not that strong." Samuel smiled painfully.Gaura stared at him and then slowly tried to free his hand but Samuel put his hand over her's."Don't leave my hand." He begged her while Gaura looked blank.She looked in his eyes and smiled brightly for the first time in last six months. She tightened her grip on his hand who got the idea what she decided. Samuel felt relieved like a heavy weight moved from his chest. He pulled Gaura against his chest and hugged her tightly...........................Ronnie looked at his watch and then at entrance. Gaura was nowhere to be found. He got up and picked his stuff. He knew she will never come. He already lost her when he decided to leave her at the alter."I am sorry."He whispered as a tear rolled down his cheek......
"What are doing sitting here? How many times I told you to not show me your ugly face, you weirdo." She glared at the new boy who was sitting peacefully on his chair minding his own business and this pissed her."I don't know why you are mad because I am ugly." He looked at her making her gasp. This was the first time he talked back and she did not have any answer.Everyone in the school knew that Sally had a special grudge on this new boy who transferred to their school six months ago.Could it be because he had that kind of aura around him that makes everyone bow to him or because he was stood mysterious. Even his best friends did not know anything about him, who he was and why he was so good in everything.But this was not the reason Sally hated Lucas. She hated him because he was one of them. And who were them? Well it was the group of people that were in a cold war with Sally and her friends.No one knew when this cold war started but everyone knew that Sally's gang hated Victori
He was sitting with books around him as today Mr Henry was going to bring his daughter here so he could get some help from her. Everyone in the country knew about the prince but nobody ever saw him for security purposes. He was good in studies but not in math. He hated math and few days ago when he was crying while preparing for math test, Mr Henry, who was his personal bodyguard since the day he born, gave him an idea of bringing his daughter. Moreover, she could never leak any information about him or else her father was going to kill her. "Come inside." He herad door opening and Mr Henry talking to someone. Sally saw a boy sitting on the carpet. He got up and turned towards her with a smile while Sally was frozen at her place. "Sally, this is prince Lucas." Lucas glanced at Sally and he could swear that he saw her soul leaving her body. For past six months, she badly bullied him. What if her father knew what she did? She saw herself being killed by her father. "You ..." Lu
"Oh look, the prince Lucas is coming with his girlfriend." Sally looked at her left where her childhood best friend Ronald was sitting. "What are you doing? Stop it." She warned him in low tone who glanced at her."Why? Are not to going to bully him today? Are you alright? Let me see if you have fever." He touched her forehead while Sally pushed his hand away in annoyance."Well, you don't have a fever." He was sure of this while Lucas glanced at them as he passed near them while Sally tried to hide herself."Oi Lucas, aren't you going to greet us today?" Ronald called him while Sally was horrified as her eyes met with Lucas and she could feel her soul leaving her body. The expressions in Lucas 's eyes were that of as a hunter looking at his prey."Hello Ronald, sorry I did not see you because of your such short height." Lucas replied with a smile making the other boy boil with anger."Don't you speaking too much today? It seemed like you need to learn a lesson, right Sally."But the
Lucad looked at his left trying to figure out why Sally was sitting there and Sally was also thinking the same."Are you stalking me?"Finally Lucas opened his mouth while Sally rolled her eyes."No, my prince." She sarcastically replied while Lucas tried not to smile over how annoyed she looked.He just arrived and found that Sally was sitting with her friends on the same row as his. Now he was sitting between Victoria and Sally, while one was all friendly and nice the other was cold and annoyed.The movie started and this was when Lucas realized that it was a horror movie.He never liked to watch horror movies. What's wrong with people to see these movies where there is no good storyline just a ghost killing everyone.He was sure that real ghosts would get scared of these fake ghosts.On the other hand, Sally was silently watching the movie when she felt someone grabbing her hand. She was sure that Lucas was trying to scare her but jokes on him as she was a hardcore fan of horror mo
