Alex's POV:
I twisted my ear again and again to make sure if she had told something by mistake.
"What? What did you just say? "I asked her again to make sure whether the thing I heard was wrong or right.
"Snakes! It's snakes. Do you get it now? " she said again.
"Are you sure, you want a snake? Why?" I asked again because that was the first time I have ever heard someone to have a pet as snake or to gift someone as snake.
"No, mam, we don't have. We don't keep snakes. We have other varieties of other animals. You can see dogs, cats, rabbits...," before she could finish she interrupted raising her index finger, "No it's alright. I just want snakes. "
Now, I'm more scared of this woman. Why snakes?
We walked out if the pet house and then, walked to the toy house.
Oh! she wants to buy him something else. That's good.

~Won't be able to live my life like this. Let me live it today~ALEX'S POV:We are struck in the middle of the way. So, we planned on walking to the nearest place where we can stay but, we walked and walked but, we couldn't find any human beings existing there.I even thought as we were walking somewhere like doraemon's mirror world where no human beings existed.She was walking on heels and I could see the blisters on her ankles but she was still walking with them."I don't think we can find any places like where we want to stay. Let's just return to the car and sleep there tonight. I hope we can search for some alternative tomorrow,"she said."Okay, ....but..., " I said."But,... What?, " she replied instantly."Will you be okay with your legs?, I think they are having blisters,"
~Sometimes others smile could be more valuable to us rather than our own~ALEX'S POV:The bright and warm rays of the sun was penetrating through the glasses of my window, making my eyes go completely blind.I glanced blindly to the rays of sunlight as I covered my eyes with both of my palms with the lazy yawns.The first thing I wanted to do was, I wanted to look at her. I steered my head behind but ended up finding no one. The seat was empty and lonely as it could be.She wasn't in there.I hurriedly opened the door, rushed outside and then checked her outside.She was nowhere. My eyes couldn't actually see her.I ran ahead of the road with my heart ready to burst and behind the road for some metres but couldn't find her.I was breathless and so much worried not to see her around.Resting both of my hands on my knees I breathed hea
~I hate others to view the weaknesses hidden on me. They make me weak and break me using those weaknesses of mine~Dorothy's POV:As I stood in front of that enormous waterfall I was reminded if the time I spent with him. They were less but that were the only time I could offer to him with my busy schedule.As his memories came flowing down to my mind, I felt the sudden warmth on my cheeks.And I knew what they were.I never show my tears to anyone. I never had habit of showing my weaknesses to other people.So, I had no other options other than jumping on the water as I was afraid that he might see that weak side of mine which I wasn't ready to show to anyone right at this moment.Or maybe I may not be able to show it to anyone in future.It felt really cold in the water but inside my heart I felt a lot of warmth. I tried to hide away the tear
~When you walk away from me, I feel like my world is crumbling. Please, don't walk away from me~ALEX'S POV :"Who the hell could ring the doorbell at midnight?"I woke up lasily as I had planned to meet her before she goes back early morning. I had the rough hunches that I wouldn't be able to meet her.I glanced at my watch irritatedly as I walked lazily towards the door without putting any clothes on in my upper torso of my body.I had thought of giving really good words of suggestion to my assistants.It could be no one else except these two, who could actually disturb me at this time of midnight other than them.Sometimes they really knock me off with their such a noisy and clingy behaviours.I unlocked the door in an irritated sluggish tone but when I glanced the person outside my door, my jaw nearly dropped on the floor with a sudden alarm.There wa
~ It is true, time and tides wait for none but what if I run to meet that time and tide~ALEX'S POV:It has been already, two days that I have been back. I looked at my cell phone more than thousands of time, expecting a call from her.My heart got excited whenever my phone buzzed expecting that it could be her calling me but my hopes would just fade away as soon as I encounter other numbers apart from her.I had so many projects to work on after my return. Musical shows, practices, collaboration, video shoots so much of work but...Even in those busy schedules I couldn't help but expect her call madly.My eyes would be stuck on the screen of phone.I was distracted to the hell but I couldn't help myself from it.My concentration was totally zero in everything I was doing. Only, one call. It was only one call, I was waiting for.She
~It hurts when you ignore rather when the world ignores me~ALEX'S POV:I picked up my keys from the table and put on my mask and sunglasses and then, sauntered to my car. I was about to start my engine but the view outside my window made me stop for a while.What the hell ?My badass queen is here!She was totally on her office attire. The perfectly fitted navy blue sheath dress, hugging her body tightly expressing all of her curves was looking extravagantly gorgeous on her. And her pointed pencil high heel was extending her height even more and her beautiful honey brown curls were cascading on her back like they were some most beautiful curtains hanging over.A middle aged man followed her as she stepped outside. He was short, nearly he comes upto her shoulders. I couldn't help but cackle at their height difference.They shook their hands togeth
~ I have more of reasons not to be with you rather than to be with you~DOROTHY'S POV:Oh God!I have really bad days nowadays. I mean I have really awesome and hit days for my business but really tiresome days for my body.I have become like an ass in these some days, the contracts, the interfaces, software, visit in all the game stations. Phew...I am going be more than the ass but I really love it. Because of it, I didn't have chance to remember him and him. Both of them were encircling in my mind like the crazy person.Like how could he just kiss me ? Just like that..But his kiss surely made the chills run through my spines for some seconds. And, I was trying really hard to not remember him.I can't believe that he came to my memory more than that fucking bastard Mike.His memories of five days, it comes flooding in my mind. I am afraid it

After a month.Dorothy's POV :Wantedly or unwantedly, I stood at the aisle for the wedding. Looking at the people all around, whom I used to call the crowds and hated them, I clutched my hands tight on the corner of my designer gown which took quite a long time to be mend.The cape sleeved gown which was showcasing my white arms, designed white floral designs from the V-lines neck to the thin slimmed waist and gradually, spreading finely and thinly on the flares of the gown.I was constantly twitching the flower on the gown, due to nervousness." Oh! God Dorothy. Why are you so much nervous? You can do it, Dorothy," I motivated myself. It's not like this is my first time being together with him. It's just a wedding." It's just a ceremony where you are marrying your husband again. Not more than that," I moaned at myself.With a loud voice, a phrase was announced," And, the bride enters."My heartfelt as if it would stop right at
" Commit thy works unto the LORD, and thy thoughts shall be established." - Proverbs 16 :3Dorothy's POV :It was tough to see him breaking down in each and every notches of his life. It's heartbreaking for me to see him like that.Allie had submitted me with all the information about the Andersons Company. I had a better idea to deal with their business. I got to know that more than sixty percent of the shareholders of his company were willing to sell their shares, because of the company's dropping of share's value in the stock market.I was willing to purchase all of the shares, all sixty percent of it. So, I had acquired all the sixty percent of his shares without even revealing my face and also urged him, that I would be investing for his company willingly but he had to do one thing for me. I will be making an app to upgrade his company's finance. You can't imagine how much profit the online app can get you but the promotional teaser and the theme music s
Alex's POV :My heart broke as she asked me if I was well or not. If I was alright or not? I wasn't? Not even a little bit. The pressure of learning the things that I don't know was more than the grief of leaving the music in the company.I wasn't being able to learn. I felt like a small kid struggling hard with his school assignments and still couldn't do it.Somewhere in my mind, I have wanted, wanted that someone would ask me if I was well or not. If I was okay or not? When she asked me about it, my heartfelt more than broken. I wanted to stay in her embraces as they were the only secure place for me now.Honestly, everything others were frustrating me except her and Gloria in my life. I don't know why but Her happiness with Gloria had made me happy in her happiness. But, sometimes thinking about the departure that which id obvious and sure to happen, ruptures my heart into pieces. And, when I think of her who is more attached to her, it makes me mor
~I am not weak. I was never.I won't let anyone to stumble on my belongings~Dorothy's POV :My heart left its place when she told me everything. Wait! What is this everything? Why did he leave the music for me?" What are spouting? How did I make him leave his biggest dream?" I asked her with a teary voice. My mind refused to agree that I was the reason for his retirement from the music and my heart denied the fact that he gave up the music.I wasn't able to take both of the things." Mam..., that ..., donor...," she stammered with each word that was enunciating from her lips. As always she is always slow or she is scared of me, I can never understand.Wiping away the tears, with my palms, I asked with a gentle voice," Tell me, Risa, everything. I swear I won't be telling even a single word to Alex and never mention your name in front of him. Please for God's sake, tell me everything," I pleaded with all of my heart and soul to her.I
~ Some people we meet in our life are more than just the angel~Dorothy's Pov:Finally, after three weeks I am being discharged from the hospital. I swear, the excitement which I had during the admittance in the hospital faded away just in some days after I joined.My back was aching like the hell by sleeping everyday on the bed. They won't allow me to eat something that I wanted and yeah, not even travel as I wanted. But, I knew that it was all for me. It was just because I wasn't habituated to sleeping and getting rest almost all days.Yeah, my little friend, Gloria would visit me frequently in my room and we would be together with each other almost all the time.We used to stroll around the garden and look at the old people laughing and giggling and make a silly jokes on some of them. As she was more of a patient in a hospital before me, she knew quite some of the people in the hospital and would describe me about them, with he
~ I lie, I tell truth. Everything is only for you~Alex's POV :Since some weeks she has to go through all sorts of tests. I can't even understand what kinds of tests they were but I can feel that she must be exhausted and fed up with all sorts of bitter experiences during the tests, needles, cuts and all.And on top of that, I didn't even want her to know what I have actually done. She might hate me, hate me for being a coward for giving up my dreams for her but I know she would never be able to feel proud even when I gave up her life for music. The music isn't as much worth as she is in my life.Her surgery was scheduled at 11 O' clock sharp. She has been in several tests since then, and she has been going through different procedures since morning.Dad reached the hospital on time. I don't know why but when dad showed up in the hospital, I felt like hugging him so tight as his presence had relieved every cells of my body.They

~I promise to love this man and never let him regret his decisions. I am going to make everything alright~Dorothy's POV:" Aren't you cold?" Alex wrapped me in a black warm cardigan as I grabbed the railings of the balcony and rested my chin on the railing and closed my eyes feeling the cool fresh air." A little," I answered as I inhale the cool and fresh breeze." Who's she?" he asked standing beside me.I lifted my head from the railing and turned to him, leaning on the railings. " I don't know but she is suffering from cancer too. I just felt sorry for that little child and I brought her here up," I answered as I hold both hands on mine and playing with them."Alex, did you had lunch?" I asked him." Yeah. Are you hungry? Want me to get you something?" he said caressing my cheeks gently with his thumbs in a round motion."I am on fast. I cannot eat. Tomorrow, I have surgery, you see," I turned back to see the view of the city.
