Staring at her picture in his phone, Ethan sits impatiently.
His right leg shaking ,as he anxiously waits for the person to come."Mr Lockwood. Good morning."
Surprised,Ethan gets up. Shaking his hand.
Dressed in black, the person looks around to see that no one was around.To only feel comfortable and settle down.
"What is it that is so impossible?"
The person nods, handing him over a folder.
While folding his hands on his lap.Anxious of how he will react.
"All the information is in it. It seems more was hidden than we thought."
Ethan nods, running through the pages.
"Medical reports?"
He asks in surprise, to only look up at the person briefly.
"No Mr Ethan. Not just medical reports but fraudulent
"Karma has truly been a boomerang in every sense.I never realised what I gave you.Untill I got it back in the end."....................................................He sits there , surrounded in chaos.His own breath the only thing , audible to his ears.With eyes fixed at the letter on the floor ,he was feeling numb to all humanly emotions."Why Soph...why..."A broken cry leaves his lips as he holds his hair in his hands, running them down to look up at the ceiling.The tears that trail down, don't stop. Instead they re route to come down to wet his ears.l now.He breathes heavily, still not able to believe it.Trying to calm himself, considering the possibilities.Knowing already that the solution was only one....To see the truth with
"Beauty is to be achieved not gifted.Scars are to be embraced not humiliated.For the very lines on a caterpillar that are ridiculed as ugly one day.Form into the scales of a butterfly that are desired and appreciated.- suzangill© ......."How would it have mattered Ethan?"She asks, staring into his eyes. Making his fingers to caress her waist with his thumb."You didn't even trust me enough to tell me Vivian.""It was as much of my child as it was yours.""I was it's father dammit!'She breathes heavily, getting up to make his fingers drop from her waist."A father who was in love with another women Ethan""A father who left his mother for her.""A father who called me a whore!!"He closes his eyes, breathing heavily.To start again in desperation."But I didn't knew Vivian!"
Ethan's povI was sitting on the breakfast table, reading the newspaper.When I hear heels clicking.My eyes wander up to the staircase,to see long slender legs come in my view. To be followed by an hourglass figure and finally her face.An aqua blue dress highlighting her curves,as she walks down elegantly."Yes. I will be there in 10""No. Don't wait. Begin with it. Okay bye."I immediately lower my eyes as she looks down.To continue drinking from the cup of coffee on my table.Without acknowledging me, she goes to the kitchen to only come back and ask me."Where are the helpers today?"I look up at her through my cup and lower it."They are on a leave. They informed yesterday."Realisation covered her features as she runs her fingers through h
Vivian's povThat assho**! What does he thinks of himself!Acting all caring, making breakfast for me, tending to my injury.Like he is the most caring husband in the world.When just yesterday he was calling me a who**! Calling me names and humiliating me.No matter what he does...I can't forgive him.Especially when he made me live in that hell for 5 years.I will never forgive him!Walking inside,I greet the director and we directly start with the shoot."So today's shoot is a bit intimate Vivian. I have our male model here...you guys are to kiss on screen."I look at the actor who approaches and smiles at me ,and I just nod awkwardly"Excuse me director."I say, getting him in a corner."What happened Vivian?""Director I not comfortable with this. I told you before also... anything is fine till getting intimate, kissing and stuff."
"Who...who are you?"She manages to ask in a quivering voice, to only make the person grip her hair and pull her scalp."Just shut up and come with me."Dragging her, she thrashes. Trying to let free but the grip of the man was stronger.The gun pressed on her forehead."Leave me...what have...I ever done to you?""Why...why are you doing this?"He doesn't answer. Pulling her more harshly that earlier.Tears spilling her eyes as she struggles in vain."Ple...ase.."She pleads. Holding his hand."I said shut up or I will blow your fuc**** head!""No..I....Ahhhhh"A scream leaves her lip ,when suddenly a gunshot resonates."Fuc*!"The person screams and next she knows, his grip on her hair looses as he holds his shoulder that was bleeding.More bullets are shot and she closes her ears with her hands, seeing the man crouching down near a car and firing back from w
"You were chasing it blindly, oblivious of everythingRunning, stumbling , weeping in the desire to get that one thing.Unknown of the one, standing behind you.Drenched in the rain.Holding an umbrella , to give you respite ,despite her pains." .......................They walk in ,with the staff at their leads. Taking in their luggage.Vivian's footsteps stop suddenly. Looking at the big doors. Breathing heavily.She has met her in law's only few times, but now. It was time to finally be welcomed to the family.To Ethan's family which was now hers as well.The word 'family' has only given her pains in the past. Loosing her mother, suffering through her step father Roman and Aliza's hatred.Clenching her fists,she feels nostalgic and anxious about this. To be only surprised by warm fingers sliding in her palms.Interlocking her fingers with them.
"I wanted to burn myself to fuel the heat of illuminating your life.Yet, what a fool I was to forget that oxygen is a must for a fireAnd I was already dead from the inside ."- suzangill......Vivian steps out of the shower, with a towel wrapped around her wet hair.Humming the music to her favourite song when suddenly she goes silent.Her eyes fixed at the figure sitting on her bed, with a book in his hand."What are you doing here?"She asks , suddenly conscious of the robe wrapped around her body.He looks up from the book at her from above his specs frame, which were balanced on his perfect greek nose."Reading Vivian. What kind of stupid question is this?""Yes I know. But why are you reading here!"And he gives her a duh look, looking back into the pages of the book.She can't share a room with him, especially not after he screamed at her earlier.She didn't wanted h
They exit the hospital with Vivian's phone ringing in her pocket.She takes it out, to see Elijah's number flashings.It's been days since she last met him.Looking at Ethan,who seemed busy on his own business talk. She picks it up."Hey""Don't hey me Viv! It's been almost a week. And you didn't even once called me!""Ehh I am sorry Eli. I..I have just been busy.""I don't know. I am coming to pick you up today. I want to talk to you regarding something important.Be ready.""No wait Eli listen...I.. I am no longer in our old house.""We have shifted to Lockwood Estate."There is silence on the other side, when he exclaims suddenly."What! But why! And why am I getting to know about this now?""Something urgent came up Eli. I will tell you later.""Okay fine. I will come to Lockwood's estate to pick you up then. Be ready by 7""Umm Okay...okay I will meet-"She didn't g
"Each inch of her skin talks to me in conundrums of jest.Her eyes, her touch,her lips are nothing but tools to hide the insecurities further in their depths.She asks me what I love the most about her scarred self.And I answer, pulling her closer to my chest."Your imperfection itself"- suzangill...2 years later"Will you fuck**** watch the road Del!"Elijah screams, hearing his heart thudding in his chest. While Delia simply smirks at him, still not looking in front."You doubt my driving hon?"He tightly held the seatbelt, to only hear a chuckle from behind."Speed up mom! I am loving it!"The 9 years boy ,speaks coming forward to settle between the seats. His elbows place
"When the time is right, even the land and sky unite by the threads of rain.Then what are two broken hearts.For the mighty, to be sealed to never be apart again ." ......Vivian gets up from the seat, pushing him aside to rush out of the room.To only have Ethan run after her."Vivian wait!"He calls after her, but she doesn't stop desperate to leave him. To only have him pull her from her wrists,and enter a room. Closing the door after himIt was a supplies room with no one there. She looks up at him with teary eyes, to only have his eyes to soften.Blocking her by placing his hands on her either side, he looks down at her with concerned eyes."Please! Let me go Ethan. Don't stop me now!""First answer my questions Vivian. Is Nix my daughter?"She looks up, unable to speak anything.While he cries desperately himsel
Endings should be happy right? But maybe sometimes in reality, this happiness is far fetched.It's a dream, a wishful thinking which is not achieved. But this does not mean, one should give up finding it.For the past is a testimony that hardwork and persistence has given one everything.Success, happiness and even Love.Perseverance has made the struggles to surrender.Even I tried , trust me I really did. But I gave up on it.I gave up trying to make the heart feel love, that has stoned to it's confines.I got Ethan for myself, but I only got back a shell. Who laughs at me a fake smile, pretends to be happy, but cries at night. A person hollow from his inside,with his heart missing.A person who takes care of me, is concerned for me but could never love me.It's been 8 years.8 years of our lives w
"I thought forgetting you was easy, to only realise.That something always seemed to be missing, left behind.Untill that day, I saw your eyesMaking me see all the happy and sad memories combined.Juxtaposed side by side,Finally completing all the missing pieces of the puzzles of my life." .... 8 years later"Next Maam Sophie!"The attendent at the reception of the hospital says, making Soph to stand up. Her hand intervined with Ethan's warm ones."This way please!"She says making them follow her towards the doctors cabin. The door is opened and they are greeted with the doctor's happy face.With the doctor getting
The cold breeze hits her face as she looks at the men surrounding her.Cleaning the tears running down her eyes."You want me right? I am here."She says opening her hands and surrendering herself. Knowing well that she was outnumbered to defeat so many men alone.If she can even keep Soph safe,it will be alot.James approaches her, looking behind her to clench his fist."You bitc*! Go and get her!"He orders and his men approach her. Guns pointed in their hands as they come closer to her.She doesn't resist. Looking at James with dead eyes. As his men hold her arms roughly."Aren't you a clever girl?"She scoffs, to only have James point his gun at her head. Ready to end her."I would love to see your father's face on seeing your corpse.""What a cruel play of desti
Till I was living for others, my happiness was running after theirs.The second I started living for myself.I didn't even feel the need to look back." - suzangill ....... Vivian's povEverything has a limit in this world, which once crossed could cause havoc in nature.May it be the calm sea at rest that rises into tsunamis.Or a simple beehive, if intruded to have the little bees kill a person in seconds.And this limit for me has been crossed. My patience has worn off and the box of lies has overflown.I knew what Ethan was doing.I heard him talking to his father that night, I heard everything.Yet, I
" We were not a power couple.We were two people bound by heights of misconceptions and hateYet I don't know whyIn you I found my soul mate".......Ethan's pov"What the hell Vivian! I told you I fucking hate you! What goddamit proof do you need for it!""Fine. I believe you.""Then you won't mind me doing this will you?"Lifting the gun and placing the nozzle of it on her temple, she looks at me with dead eyes.I stills, the challenge in her eyes. Forcing me to surrender and tell her the truth.But I don't....I can't tell her. She won't let me go otherwise.She will happily exchange herself to save Sophie.That's how much selfless my little Phoenix is."Please...just listen to me. Keep the gun down my little Phoenix. Please don't
7: 58 pm.A warehouse at the outskirts of the city.A slap echoes , breaking the silence in the room. Elijah holds his cheek, looking down at the floor breathing heavily."I am ashamed of calling you my Son! Such audacity to go against your own dad to help those bastards?""If there is where your loyalty lies? Go and never show me your face again!"Elijah clenches his fist, to look up at his father. Almost giving him a helpless look."Dad there is no gaining from this! Why are you so persistent to get this sick revenge! Please forget about it.... please!"James sees red, holding his collar and pulling him."How dare you even say this! Your mother....that bastard killed your mother while she was pregnant!""I know dad but it was a mistake! It was an accident! You have ruined your entire life for this
I thought she resembled a breeze of warm air, that soothed wherever she went.To only realize now she was blender of the air itself.That turned the hot loos to chilling needles of piercing rainLetting her typhoons out that she till now keptHarboured to rest. - suzangill© ......The first rays of sunlight illuminate the room ,as a couple stays entangled in the silken sheets.Their legs enmeshed together and bodies pressed against each other, radiating heat.While one was in deep slumber, the other couldn't find sleep.Lost in the thoughts of the events that waited to be unfolded, marking the journey of their karma and deeds.His knuckles caressing her cheek, enjoying
