Celia’s POV
Looking at the waves that are rising above to the heights as if they are trying to reach sky at some attempt, sat a girl with no soul, her mind is now void. That girl is me. All I could think of is the water. The deep blue ocean is sometimes calm bestowing the greatest peace one could ever afford, and sometimes, its tides are agitated, as if they are waging war against someone or something. Sometimes, the water looks like dancing to the dull roaring tune of wind that is travelling over the surface of the ocean as though it is happy to reach the land after a long journey through mountains, rocks and valleys. Sometimes, it is so silent. It is apparently not the serene but there is veiled sadness in the air. And sometimes, it is wild and ferocious threatening every cell.
For one month, I did nothing but stare at the ocean. When I was before it, I don’t think about anything at all

Celia’s POV The Annenberg Community Beach House features spectacular views, a children's play area / splash pad and a historic pool and Marion Davies Guest House offering docent tours as well as classes and rentals. It is a public facility, open to all with no membership required. This unique place is one of the reasons why Santa Monica is considered one of LA's nicest beaches! Back on the Beach Café is also on site and offers beachfront breakfast, lunch, and dinner. This is the first and only thing I came to know about in LA. Ryan and I are walking in the sand. The wind is roaring today. I wish I had tied my hair. It is falling into my mouth whenever I opened my it to respond. “Thanks for agreeing.” He said turning to me. I envy how his hair stayed still on his face and he pretty much didn’t seem bother at all. It has always been like that. “Oh. No mention. It’s high time for me to have a n
Celia’s POV I could feel him rubbing my hand continuously to keep me warm. I couldn’t even protest. I have no mind and energy for it. We hail a taxi to home since I am in no position to walk. It is just a ten minutes drive to our houses and in the mean time I get back my senses, started to breathe without opening my mouth and feel terribly ashamed about the pain that is consuming me. We went to our floors silently. When the elevator door opened and we got out, I apologized him for my mess. Abash is a little word to explain what I feel. “It’s okay. You have got a panic attack, Celia. You weren’t yourself back there. I think you need help.” He said all the way while walking me to my flat. “No. I am fine by the way I am.” I said trying to sound causal while pulling my jacket more close to my body. “Celia,” He caught my hand making me stop, “I am not saying this because I am a the
Celia’s POV It has been one month since Lillian got married to Zed. It has been two months since I am seeing a therapist and made a new friend- Ryan, the Harry Potter, the wizard in my life. It has been three months since I lost my pregnancy- my twins died. It has been four months since Alexander left me, since my life became upside down, since all my dreams along with my heart has shattered. Shattered is a little word. I think I am getting better, or at least that’s what everyone is thinking, because, I was one of the active participants in Lillian’s marriage. Alexander has become a Voldemort in our family. No one raises his name. If the topic comes, they would say, that brute. But this is no joke. I could not sleep if I don’t have the pills. Even when I did, there are always been nightmares. I might be having busy days since I am now working as, I don’t know what I sho
Back Story: Sasha knocked on Ryan’s door during the time she thought that no one would notice. Ryan became perplexed looked at her at his door steps but invited her cordially. “I just want to know how she is doing.” She said before giving him a chance to offer her a cup of tea and at least the seat in his living room. “Fine. She has a lot of progress in two months.” He replied trying to be as assured as he can. “But, the dreams didn’t stop, did they? I am afraid. You know when her twin died, she shut the world and the next three years, only god knows how she was and what is running on her mind. She isn’t eating much. She used to be a glutton.” Sasha enquired worrying while a half smile appeared on her face thinking about the days when they filled their tummies more than enough with good food. “They don’t seem to get away easily. To be frank, Sasha, sometimes, I feel like she is putting upon an act in front of us. She no more has any hopes on her lif
It didn’t happen as easily and hastily as I think it was. He was there, right in front of my popped out eyes staring at me. His body, immediately jerked forward when he saw me almost tripping up. I crash into people, vehicles, even walls in the process of escaping from him. He came down running, sprinted after me. I heard him calling which I barely recognise as my name. Finally, I succeed in sprinting faster than him and hailed a taxi to the home. My inside and outside are burning. It is definitely not the temperature but my own heart that has lied deep beneath the layers of my chest which is a living proof for my pain. I could constantly feel it there. It is like the world around me is blind sided. I could see nothing but his eyes which stared as if he did nothing. I feel them piercing right through my skin like always. I could still see them like someone captured that moment and kept his portrait in front of him. “Miss?” It is the call of taxi driver finally opened my e
Celia’s POV I wasn’t planning to go to my flat. But, I got no option since Ryan is not home. I am not planning go to the hospital and disturb him. I want to deal this myself whether I fight or give in. Giving in is never a part of the plan. But, there is his touch which is real, warm and feels like worthy of another mistake. I will be doomed if I took that path. One thing has never changed. Pushing him away is always difficult. I spent most of the time driving here and there and it is midday by the time I reached my flat. I opened the door just to find my couch occupied by the one man I am trying to avoid. There is no surprise. I saw this coming. All I have to do is mask how much his presence is effecting me. I folded my hands across my chest waiting for him to response. The irony of life – How in a span of five months, the person with whom I was going to have babies has now become a stranger. He looked up, his legs are little wide, his back is completely leaned on the couc
Celia’s POV “You lied to me. This is Alexander’s apartment. You never told that.” I said silently. Ryan was really surprised when he saw me near his doorsteps. In a day, I became homeless again. I wonder if I ever had a home before and if I will ever have a home in the future. “I don’t know who own that. I just knew that it wasn’t Zed’s cousin’s, ‘cause Zed never..” He went mute. He sat beside me without giving another thought. If anyone passed beside us, I don’t know how they would feel. But this situation reminds me the day when mom threw us out because I did something rebel and Cayden supported me. We sat at the doorsteps planning to conduct a mini strike. If only, times are good, I would have happily laughed thinking about that. Now, the whole situation is so excruciating that I wanted to turn myself invisible and escape from this world. He sighed trying to take my hand in his which I immediately jerked a
Celia's POV I have no idea how many times we did many dirty things in the car out of love, lust, anger, fun and frustration. This is weird. So weird sitting silently beside him while he is driving to what called as my house. Five months ago, I was his. He was mine. And now, no matter what happened, things are not getting back again. I can’t let that happen. He do tried to talk, tried to touch, and I always flinched. The hurt is too obvious on his face. It pains me too. But, the past doesn’t change so easily, does it? “That's it? You have nothing to say to me?” He questioned while I fumble to type the password. “You said what you have to say and you showed me what you have to show. I watched and I listened. What else do you want me to do?” I asked calmly and at last, entered the correct one. He scoffed while I waited for him to leave, “Come hom
