Emma was taken aback by his question which she was running away from. Her ownself has asked her for a hundred times this as well but she unknowingly always ends up being the starlight for him in the dark. His one painful hiss and it gives her tons of ache, his one smile and she is like a dancing twilight. She is so confused by her dismantled state but whatever it is she finds peace in it and that's what matters for her.They might not have a romantic relationship but they surely have those invisible ties which keeps them close to each other. And she secretly keeps on cherishing it, making Shawn think he is putting efforts while Emma is just making him do a little and returning it with a multiple of three to it.With the air thickening lightly with the unwavering emotions in the air Emma feels her smile gone. But then as she tore the eye contact something flickers in her head and with a soft smile embracing her lips she looks back in his eyes again.“Because I want to be the pain in yo
Shawn was walking back and forth in his cabin near the large window sills of that skycrappper. The world seened under his gaze as he could find the people walking by or cars moving in a minion size. He had a charming smile over his face while his chest broadened up thinking, “No.. one will try to hit on my girl now. Nor can anyone dare to win her heart and snatch her away from me.”Good job, Shawn.. I'm proud of you!He himself was busy praising himself and patting his back when Emma entering his cabin with a soft knock stood amused. That grinning victory smile and jolly face was a rare moment to witness. Her eyes almost bulged out and she quickly fishes for her phone and take a snap before she miss it. She was smiling softly with the pictures she captured when Shawn finally notices her. And she straightening her back pushes her phone in her pant pocket.Shawn was taken aback with her presence and quickly clearing his throat he masks up his expressions in a stoic one going back to his
Sitting at his chair inhaling and exhaling softly Shawn wanders, “Where did I get myself stuck? She is like a sudden thunderstorm.. lightning and shaking my office as she dashed off.”Shaking his head off with whatever happened just now he quickly dials his idiot friend, Garry. His legs unable to calm down makes him walk to and fro between the clean area. His whole white flooring was covered with shattered and broken pieces of that statue and vase which was about to land on him. And then office files with papers scattered here and there making him curse under the breath seeing the blunder.After a few minutes of trying, Garry finally answers his call, making Shawn shoot at him. “She made her words true..! She made my world upside down just because I asked her to be my assistant. But what's wrong with it?”, he said in a go and Garry was perplexed with what he was saying. While caring less if he was understanding his words or not Shawn continued. “I just wanted to keep her to myself a
Calling the housekeeping staff through Susie Shawn gets the mess cleared up making Susie contemplate that she is surely going to have such scenes witnessed more in future. But then it made her laugh in her head knowing Shawn was so petrified and scurried up with Emma being here. He is totally a different person than she ever found him in her 4 years of job."But ma'am for sure is scaring. My soul almost left my body went she looked like that to me. So, sir... I can understand him", she mutters to herself in her head.“Pl-eas-e get me a cup of strong coffee first and look where Emma went. She is not answering her damn phone”, he hisses and Susie nodding runs to bring a cup of coffee for him. While the cleaning staff doing it's work leaves from there making Shawn breath in relief.Where are you Emma?? My head is hurting because of you, now.Lowering his head, he held it in his hands as he was trying to calm his mind with his eyes closed. When a soft knock lands on his door after a few m
The day passes in a blink and night hovers the world spreading its darkness all over the sky. The moon was spreading its soft dim lit glow with a warmth that surges straight to the heart. Shawn was sitting on his balcony with a glass of scotch in his hand as he stared at his hand. That platinum band was dangling over his finger– the finger whose nerves go and reach straight with heart. It was supposed to be Emma's name printed over there on that band but it held Elena's name. A pang of pain and guilt heaves his heart and he sighs heavily, taking that ring out from his finger and holds it between his thumb and index finger.“You have been like a curse to me… snatching the most precious thing in my life– my love, My Emma. It hurts her to see you adorned on my fingers but what can I do if I don't wear it, they'll go behind her. And that I can't let happen”, he whispers, talking with the ring in his hands.Thinking for a deep moment and gulping the brownish golden liquor he breaks the gla
Last dayReturning home Emma changed into a cord set chocolate brown colour short above her knees, a tee with spaghetti sleeves and oversized shirt over it. Her hairs were left open as her head felt dizzy and preheating the lunch box she had, she sat for lunch. She didn't want to think about whatever happened today but unfortunately everything was haunting her.After lunch she decides to read a book, listen to music, walk in the lawn, do laundry but nothing could divert her attention. Feeling tired she lays over her bed with her hairs hanging down. Closing her eyes she tries to sleep and she even gets in it successfully. When Shawn's charming face flashed in front of her eyes, she could hear his words ring her head. Please trust meDon't leave me… EmmaThis is all for your protectionGive me one more chancePlease believe me..I'm dying without you…I need you EmmaShawn was begging and crying near her, falling on his knees while she was standing straight. He was pleading with his ha
Shawn's face got flushed red as if he was caught in red lights and quickly averted his gaze. He cursed himself internally to sound and act like a jealous hypocrite. Looking everywhere but in her eyes he started coming up with an idea but miserably failed under her keen eyes.“Shawn…”, she asks with a teasing grin and he turns away. Her eyes danced with mischief as her plans worked nicely of irking him. “I– I.. ”, running out of excuses he starts coughing hard again and Emma shakes her head at him. “Fine. Don't answer. Let's have breakfast first… I'm hungry!”, she changes the topic and savours the pancake first.Sighing softly, Shawn turns to gaze upon the breakfast she brought. Omelette bread sandwich, pancakes, half boiled eggs, juice, classic salad, cookies which he ate and cupcakes and coffee. “Did you make all this..?”, he asks. “Umm… yes. I made everything apart from the boiled eggs. I don't know when they get ready, it's a bit critical for me”, she says and he chuckles lightly
Throughout the day, Shawn constantly keeps calling for one particular name that was "Emma... and Emma." He doesn't seem to be able to stop only and was persistent to call her for every minor and major things. As his mind, heart and soul was everything was stuck on her. She felt like the oxygen to breathe and water to be hydrated and health for him. He kept his schedule light for today as well cancelling few of his works. And the work he was left with didn't interest him at all but her.Susie who was doing her work silently in the corner was amused by Shawn's different behaviour. She was shocked and tired of hearing that *tring tring* sound of intercomm. Her ears almost started hurting while head was starting to pain now.What's wrong with sir today? Is he intentionally irritating ma'am?She mumbles to herself seeing Emma's worn out state and fed up face. She herself was getting irritated and her legs were starting to hurt as she kept on doing in and out. She could barely work on the d
