Outside Alexander's house, his parents and sister were waiting for their son and his wife. "Daphne, go check on them. They are taking so much time," Ophelia told her daughter.
"Okay, mom," Daphne stepped ahead but stopped as she saw her brother and his wife. "Wow," she was stunned to see Anastasia. "Sister Ana looks beautiful," she mumbled and ran to his brother.
Alexander tightly hugged her. "We missed you, Brother," Daphne said and then pulled back.
"I am Daphne, the younger sister of Alexander," she introduced herself to Anastasia, who smiled and gave her a hug. They both pulled back when Daphne got aside.
Alexander's parents came forward. Anastasia greeted them. "This is my father, Jason and this is my mother, Ophelia," Alexander introduced he
Alex sat beside her on the bed and handed her the ointment. "Sorry again," Anastasia grasped the tube from him and told him to move his t-shirt up. Alex removed the t-shirt which bewildered Anastasia."Why did you remove it? You only need to-" she paused as she was shocked to see the large bruises on his back. She felt guilty for acting that way."Complete your words," Alex stated as he tilted his head back.Anastasia opened the cap of the tube and took the ointment on her finger. She pressed her finger gently on the middle of his back over the scratch mark. Alex felt a tingling sensation as Anastasia's finger moved over his skin. She applied the ointment quickly on his back and told Alex to turn back. He did so.For a second, Anastasia was stunne
"Alex, there is this woman whom I am destined to marry. Do you want to know about her?" A young man named Hermes asked. Both were dressed in the college uniforms and laid on the green grass ground, gazing at the evening sky."So, arranged marriage still exists. Strange!" Alex raised his eyebrows."It happens. She is pretty. I never saw anyone like her. Father showed me her picture. I think I am not handsome enough to stand by her. I envy your looks," Hermes said and chuckled."Does looks matter?" Alex queried."It does matter in a few places. After two years, I will get married to her," asserted Hermes. "I need to work on my resume and get a stable job," stated Hermes."Did you send her your picture?"
"Brother, where is Sister Ana? I have something to show her," Daphne asked. Alex's father had also come and was watching TV with him while his mother was preparing dinner."She is in the room," Alex replied, who was busy on his phone. Daphne left the living room and went upstairs. She knocked on the door but when Anastasia did not respond, she pushed the door and went inside.To her surprise, Anastasia was not there. Daphne checked the washroom but she was not even there. Daphne came downstairs and told Alex that Anastasia was not in the room. Alex lifted his eyes from his phone while his father looked at Alex."She might be in the washroom," Alex stated."No, Brother," Daphne replied. Alex knitted his brows and stood up from the sofa. He called at Anastasia'
Ophelia gave an ice pack massage to Anastasia. "Mother, please do not touch my foot. I will do it," Ana asserted."Lay down. Your foot is swollen so much. Why did you go out alone?" Ophelia scolded Anastasia who smiled. She was touched by this gesture of Alexander's mother."Why are you smiling? I am not praising you," Ophelia stressed her words. Anastasia suppressed her smile and shook her head. It was heartwarming for her. So this is what they say a mother's love is! She contemplated."Mom, I will do it. You shall go down," Alex offered his help. Ophelia handed the ice pack to Alex. "I will send your meals upstairs," she said before leaving the room. Alex sat near her foot and applied the ice pack.Anastasia looked at Alex and asked, "How did yo
The next morning, Anastasia and Alexander were ready to their leave. Daphne was a little sad as she did not get enough time to spend with them. "We will come next time and then we will have fun," Alex patted Daphne's head, who hummed.Waving at them, the two got into the car and left for the city, to their home. It was still early morning. Ana wondered how did Alex arranged a taxi in that early morning."If you want to sleep then you can. Just place your head on my lap and sleep till we reach our home," Alex stated.Ana shook her head and averted her gaze from him. She rested her head on the head restraint and closed her eyes. A few seconds later, she felt Alex's head on her lap which shocked her. She confusedly looked at him and asked him what he was doing.
"Ana," Alex shouted, who had stood near the counter. He grasped her both hands and asked her if she was fine. He cupped her face and examined it. "You did not get hurt, right?" He asked worriedly."Alex, I am good," Ana told him and then looked at the pan. The fried egg had burnt entirely. "I-I was cooking and--" Alex looked towards the stove and then pan. He chuckled and put his hands down."Couldn't you wait for some time? You have given me a heart attack!" Alex rested against the counter as he glanced at her."I was hungry. I thought by watching the cooking video, I would be able to cook something for us," stated Ana. Alex amusingly looked at her. He grasped her both hands and drew her closer to him. Anastasia was bewildered for a second. He locked her in between his legs and gazed into her eyes
At noon, Anastasia and Alexander reached the airport. They took the flight and in the next three hours, they reached Switzerland. Their guide, Sam Matthews, was already at the airport, waiting for them. He met them and welcomed them."Give me the suitcases. The cab is parked outside and we will be in the Eden Resorts in an hour," Sam told them."Nice. Let's go then," Alex stated and looked at Anastasia, who nodded her head. They went to the cab and left for the resort. Anastasia was enchanted by the beauty of Switzerland.Alex looked at her and smiled. 'She hardly smiles,' he thought. Sam told them about the places where they had to tour from tomorrow. Anastasia was keenly listening to him. "The Sigriswil Panorama Bridge is a marvelous engineering craft. You will enjoy the view from there," Sam told them
Anastasia tilted her head and peered into his eyes. "I am sleeping," Anastasia said and laid down on the bed. She turned her back towards Alexander and looked at the glass door which opened in the gallery."Are you afraid that I will be like your ex?" Alex asked, bewildering Anastasia. He sipped the champagne from the glass and then continued, "Ana, I will prove my words through my actions.""Why do you want to start a relationship with me? My life is a mess, Alex. I do not want you to get involved in this mess," affirmed Anastasia."You are my wife. It doesn't matter to me whether your life is a mess or full of happiness. You will find me in every situation," Alex replied to her. Anastasia did not say anything and closed her eyes. It was a tiring journey for her. She drifted off to sleep.
Alex looked at Anastasia, who was not happy. "We have to go to a party tonight. Your brother, Nicholas is celebrating the happiness he got after becoming the CEO," Alex affirmed."I do not want to go," Ana replied as she wiped off her tears. "He will taunt me and my father," she added."In the presence of your husband, no one can make you feel low. You cannot let him think that you have fallen weaker. Show him that his mere achievement does not bother you much," proclaimed Alex. Anastasia peered at him for a long time."Don't encourage me so much," Ana mumbled when Alex drew her towards him by grasping her arm. "This is the only thing you can have to stay stronger in front of your rival. It's only the beginning, Ana. Nicholas might be happy today but no one knows about tomorrow," Alex proclaimed."Hmm. I trust your words," Ana asserted. Alex told her to wash her face and then come downstairs to have lunch.
Five years later:Time passes soon but some memories are still with you- good and bad both. Same thing happened with me. I have finally achieved my dream of being a news anchor of 9 pm show. My parents, my brother and my friends are proud of me. They daily watch my show which gives me immense pleasure.Whenever I watch at this main desk my heart pounds.

My world stopped at that distance, the time stopped and my heart beat too.My only first and only love ended u
