Scars Between Us CHAPTER 58: Section of veracity
JEREMY POV:I felt frustrated and pissed. This was supposed to be mine and Rosalina's time but she had to invite Jaxon who doesn't leave her, and she is more than fine with it.I don't understand, what does Jaxon have that I lack? They would have never met in the first place if I did not introduce Rosalina to the group.*FLASHBACK*I was walking down the hallway with Rosalina. She is new to this school, so I was walking her around, showing her everything. She is very nice.It's been a few weeks since she joined our school. She is quite introverted, I somehow managed to be friends with her. She is the type where you need to approach her. She is cute. I think I might have developed a liking for her. She has a slight dimple when she smiles and it's adorable. It gives me butterflies in my stomach.The bell rang indicating it was the break. A rush of students came out of the classroom. "Do you want to meet my friends?" I asked turning to RosalinaShe gave me an awkward smile as she shrug

THIRD PERSON POV:Jaxon sat by the critical room as his heartbeat increased with every passing second. He saw Jeremy and Henry conversing in the corner of his eye but he couldn't be less bothered.Brandon had arrived a long time ago and has been dealing with paperwork ever since. He portrayed a calm state but his eyes showed a vivid feeling of pain.The fear came back rushing to him. The feeling of loss from a few months ago as she laid lifeless in the hospital bed. He got up and went to the other wing of the same floor. He walked and came across the room he had spent some of the most horrifying times of his life.Room 2004...He looked ahead with a blank expression. The cabin was empty as no sign of a patient was there. He entered the room with slow steps as his eyes fell to the neatly done bed with the city lights reflecting upon it.Jaxon's fingers traced along with the bedsheets as he closed his eyes reminiscing the catastrophe. Tears fell from his eyes as memories of the girl lay

JAXON POV:My heart stopped, like a clock handle suddenly stopping its process of distributing the seconds evenly among the hours.My head fell to my hands as I tightly gripped my hair."She has to stay under calm circumstances until she is fully recovered" The doctor suggestedEveryone in the room was silent. My head was hanging low. Brandon let out a sigh of grief."What can we do for now?" He asked with a stressed voice."Keep her away from every single situation that would cause her this sort of convulsions," The doctor said"Can we see her?" Jeremy asked with a hoarse voice"Yes, she is in the ICU" The doctor repliedI got up slowly as my mind had given up on my body. Everyone else stood up as we head towards the ICU which was on the 2nd floor. We passed by many people talking to each other but they all sounded monotone.THIRD-PERSON POV:Tristan stared at Jaxon worried about his state after hearing the news. His eyes then diverted to Jeremy. To his surprise, he looked extremely

ROSALINA POV:I was sitting in the hospital bed as I scrolled through my phone. Jaxon had gone out to bring me some food. I was still a bit bothered by his ignorance towards my question earlier.*FLASHBACK*"Why is it that in all my memories, you are there?" I asked again "You just woke up Rosalina, are you hungry?" He asked not bothering to answer the question I askedI frowned at his behaviour. I was about to ask again but he cut me off."What do you want to have?" He askedI stopped myself from asking any other further questions. I stopped and looked at him for a while, silently. He raised his eyebrow at me waiting for an answer."I want chicken fry" I repliedHe smiled at me and came forward. He caressed my cheek."Anything else?" He asked"No..." I said silently"I will go get it for you," He said as he kissed my temple before leaving.I had a blush over my face as he left. I smiled a little before realizing what I was doing.*END OF FLASHBACK*I was still blushing as I thought

THIRD-PERSON POV:Brandon felt exhausted. He has not been able to see his sister ever since she woke up. He was stressed with Jeremy's issue and also he had work to attend to. Fortunately, he was financially very stable, so he was able to afford all the expenses and that did not worry him. He was in an emotional strain. It's not easy for any brother to bear, their only sister going through this.He opened the door to the ward and he saw the scene he wished he would walk into every day. His sister was sleeping while Jaxon was sitting beside her holding her hand, also sleeping with his head over her stomach.He smiled slightly as he took a seat on the couch and stared at them. Looking at them he felt happy at the same time a thought ran through him.'When will I find someone?' He thought and bitterly chuckled as the memory of certain someone ran through his mind.He was snapped back from his thoughts when he heard shifting. He looked towards the bed to see his sister waking up from her

This was the perfect time to talk to him.I wore a beige-coloured sweater with black sweatpants. I combed my hair, grabbed my phone, and head out. The winter wind hit me.I suddenly received a call from Jaxon. I decided to pick it up.Rosalina: Hello?Jaxon: Rosalina? Where are you?Rosalina: I am going to meet someoneJaxon: Who?I remained silent contemplating whether I should tell him about it. But there was nothing to hide so I just decided to tell him as he will eventually know.Rosalina: JeremyThe line on the other side remained silent as my anxiousness increased.

ROSALINA POV:My eyes opened slowly adjusting to the light. Everything was just the same as it has been since the day I have come here. A shiver ran down my spine as I remembered all the horrible incidents that occurred to me here, in my room.I felt two muscular arms wrapped around me and light breathing on my neck giving off a ticklish feeling. I jolted up from my position causing the person holding onto me to flinch awake from his sleep. He sat up rubbing his eyes. His eyes shot open as he saw me"Rosalina? How are you feeling?" He asked worriedly placing a hand on his cheek"What are you doing here?" I asked coldly as I yanked his hand away"You fainted after the incident. I ran after you and you almost got into a crash again...." He said as his voice cracked"T-Then you fainted. We called the doctor came for a check-up" He finishedI looked at him as anger rushed through me. After all these years of torture for no good reason at all, he still has the nerve to stay this close to m

Scars Between Us EPILOGUE
6 YEARS LATER The soothing wind of the autumn brushed past the busy streets. Every moving creature craves to return to the comfort of its house. Except for one person, who sat with his heart warmed up for an arrival he awaited. His eyes wandered from place to place trying to take in every bit of the place, to be able to put it down his memory lane as a remarkable day. A day to remember on days of the missing comfort. Impatience was all he felt, cursing at the time for moving so slow. Showing his full anger towards the roads which delayed the presence of the one he begged to meet. It's been six years. No contact. Both are busy in their own lives trying not to care about each other's lives. When one might have succeeded in the race but the other seemed to have horribly failed. Maybe, he didn't even try to. The atmosphere got comforting and lively the moment his eyes fell upon the café door which opened with a woman coming in with a smile. She smiled at the workers who had returned th
Scars Between Us CHAPTER 71: Two direction apart
ROSALINA POV:My heartbeat is increasing with every passing second as I await the waking up of the raven.He fought for me. That's what was lingering in my mind. A witness who had a complete idea of the incident had told us about it. My bruises on the back were being treated. They stung and I hissed in pain."Please be careful," Jeremy said to the nurse who was treating meHe then looked at me with a soft smile which I returned and then looked back to the unconscious figure. We were all very tense about him."Thank you Rosalina" Henry suddenly said"For?" I asked confused as there was nothing to thank me for"For protecting him. If you hadn't shielded him from the hits then his condition would have been worse" He explained and nodded in understanding"You're welcome" I whispered and it was silent for awhileJeremy came up to me and kneeled before me."You...Feeling fine?" He asked awkwardly"Yeah...thank you for asking," I said again looking awayHe nodded and then moved away. Everyon
Scars Between Us CHAPTER 70: Redamancy
HENRY POV:I was passing by the university's open area. I ran out of supply for a pen so I was heading to the store to buy some, but as I was going I heard the commotion. When I go forward to see what was happening, I had to go through the crowd. My eyes widened as I got into the crowd to see what was happening.There was Jaxon with blood running down his head which made his whole face look like a blood moon, getting kicked by a few juniors. He looked like he was having difficulty breathing but was trying his best to fight back. I went forward to stop them only to be hit to the side by one causing me to fall. I frantically looked around trying to think of a way to help. I got up to go and ran to call the others.I ran through the university corridor as fast as I could. Suddenly, I saw Tristan by the locker area."TRISTAN!!!" I screamed causing him to turn flinching"What the fuck Henry-""Jaxon got into a fight and now he is getting beaten up. We need to help" I said in one goTristan
Scars Between Us CHAPTER 69: Sulit
THIRD-PERSON POV"What?" Rosalina asked as memories of her being the same flashed through her mind"Yeah...Few guys at school sexually harassed her. She could not take the pain and lost her mental balance" Jeremy said looking down"How is she now?" Rosalina asked"She is better. She will get discharged within this year" Jeremy repliedThere was a moment of absolute silence. None of them said a word as the only sound heard was the clanking of glasses."I am so useless as a brother," Jeremy said"Not more than me," A voice said from behindRosalina's head jolted up in the direction and her eyes widened. Jeremy sat up straight as nervousness took over him."B-Brandon?" Rosalina said stuttering"Why are not eating anything chubs?" He askedRosalina did not reply. She just maintained her silence."I am a much more useless brother. Do you want to know why? Because even if knew what was happening with her I did not take any action. Did not protect her the way a brother is supposed to. This i
Scars Between Us CHAPTER 68: Enigmatic situation
THIRD-PERSON POV:Jaxon's expression darkened. He felt anxious and angered. Calming himself down he asked"Who?" He asked"Jeremy" Rosalina answered back blandly without any expression"Why?" He asked in a low voice"Cause I want to talk to him. Any problem?" She asked raising an eyebrow"Certainly. You cannot go to meet him" Jaxon said growling"Ohhh and who are you to say that?" She asked in a sarcastic tone"Rosalina listen to me you cannot go to meet him!" Jaxon growled at her againRosalina felt scared at his expression. He had towered over, his nostrils flaring from anger and his eyes red. Rosalina shook her indicating a negative answer.Jaxon ran a finger through his hair abruptly in frustration but what caught his eyes was Rosalina flinching. He came forward at her"I-I just wanted to know W-Why he did it" She answered as she covered herselfJaxon stared at her confused."P-Please don't hurt me" she whisperedJaxon's shoulders fell. His eyes softened at her vulnerable state. H
Scars Between Us CHAPTER 67: Reinitialising
ROSALINA POV:"Cause I don't want to lose you again," He saidI cringed at his cliché words. I lightly shivered at it in disgust and he gave me a questioning look. I rolled my eyes and walked forward.I heard footsteps behind but ignored them and kept on marching forward. I stood at the bus stop waiting for its arrival. I felt a presence beside me and looked to find Jaxon staring at me. I sighed and moved away which made him move with me. I let out an annoyed huff."What classes do you have today?" He asked softly"None of your business I see there," I said with an annoyed expression"Well, it is. If it's related to you, it is" He replied"It never was. And it isn't now either. We are no more. So you are just acting like a stalker" I said and walked awayTHIRD-PERSON POV:Her words hurt him like someone stabbing him with a sharp knife. He stared at her with eyes full of emotions to which she stayed oblivious.The bus arrived and without looking back Rosalina entered and punched her ca

THIRD-PERSON POV:Brandon's eyes widened at Rosalina's statement as she stomped out of the room. Jaxon just stared at the figure with a blank look as it faded away into the corridor."This is going to be very difficult" Nick blurted outJosh glared at his obvious statement."I will go talk to her," Lia said suddenly marching forward.Everyone looked at her with a hopeful look but Jaxon. He had a blank expression on his face, staring at the door.Lia went forward and knocked on the door. There was no response so she just decided to enter.She walked into the room searching for the figure. Her eyes landed on the girl by the bedside bawling her eyes out. Lia felt terrible for not being there to support her friend when she needed it the most. For judging her without any proper explanation. Tears weld up in her eyes as she stepped forward.She kneeled behind her and rubbed her back."It's okay. Let it out" She whisperedRosalina burst out crying as soon as she heard the voice. She needed s
