1 Week Later:- After trying my best to get a normal conversation out of her, it all ended up in vain. Our talk may start with random things but end with her mock. I am trying to get to know her and after sharing a few conversations with her. I came to know that her way of talking is very tricky. She spoke deeply and understood it was beyond my capabilities most of the time. Her words held profound meanings, which are similar to a riddle. Maybe I should tell her straightforwardly that I want to know her and want to give our relationship a chance. “I get it, we cannot love each other but we can at least live our lives on good terms for whatever time we have left.” I muttered
Rebecca POV:-Ryan took it all wrong, I didn't mean it to do it. I can be anything but I can't be a cheater. His words hit me like an arrow as I felt I am immersing deeper into despair."You have proven that nothing but hate is present between us." He said and pushed me away.“Mr Knight-”Before I could say anything in my defense, he left. His tears..He was crying.I broke his heart. I destroyed the house he was trying to build. I shattered the dreams he began to think with me.
“Noo!” I woke up screaming, holding my chest to breath with tears blurring my vision.“No, No, It’s not me.” I whispered in a broken voice.I ran out of the room and looked for Ryan desperately.“It’s not me, I swear.”I lost my breath as it began to suffocate me. Tears brimmed in my eyes as my mind was clouded with terror.My hands and feet turned cold along with cold sweat over my forehead.I entered his studies and saw him leaning on the table, one hand over his face, covering his face while his other hand was resting on the table.He looked like a complete mess, mess
Before my mind could register anything further than this, he picked me a bridal style.“Ryan!” A gasp escaped my lips as my heart skipped a beat. I wrapped my arms around his neck and looked at him innocently.“Shh. Don’t talk.”He looked at me with a hint of something darkly beautiful as we began to walk. I buried my face in his chest and closed my eyes.The melodious sound of his heartbeat gave me utmost serenity, I smiled genuinely, blushing furiously in his arm, drowning in this presence.I found myself losing in his lull and before I knew it, he placed me gently on the bed of our room.“So you burned them?” He asked,
Ryan POV:-‘Oh Lord… where did my emotions lead me?’Sunlight penetrated through the curtains, igniting our room. I slowly opened my eyes and adjusted my vision.I let out a yawn, feeling tired and plopped on my elbows. I turned to my side and saw Rebecca sleeping beside me, peacefully.“Hey…” I whispered.A smile crept upon my lips when I looked at her. My heart began to beat fast, feeling strange happiness inside me as last night's events came to my mind.I moved my hand close to her face and tugged the strand of her hair falling on her face behind her ears.“You are irresistibly
She got ready, coming out of the bathroom after her bath, getting ready as I continued to watch her intensely until she came closer and sat on the bed, looking at the bangles on her hand.I scooted closer to her, not preferring distances from her anymore. I also looked at her hands and began to say."Your hands were empty so I thought I could…" I trailed off and she began to say,"I love bangles, bracelets and any jewelry to wear on hand." She said with a smile. I also smiled back and looked at her.“It looks beautiful on you.” I whispered sincerely.“Thanks.” She smiled sheepishly.She also turned to look at me too as we star
These thoughts caused chaos in my mind as I lost my ability to think and filled up with ultimate consternation. My heart, in that moment, I desired nothing but to become the light of her dark sky. I wanted to become the hand she can hold onto and never let it go. “What have you done to yourself, Rebecca?” I asked myself in fright.I wanted the spark of hope which will ignite that endless fire of happiness in her now. All this time, I pushed her away, now she needs me and I will not back away now.“Why?” I don't know about love but I will surely become her salvation. And I understood it's not our unsavory redemption but her unsavory redemption.Like the more she tries to isolate herself from me the more I'll reach out to her. “I won’t let you reside there anymore.” I'll stir her mind as she won't be able to push me away even if she wants to and I'll be the one she strives for.‘I'll become her redemption.’I walked down and looked at her, since today is Saturday, I am home and I
Rebecca POV:-‘Am I making the right choice by taking Ryan along?’My heart felt faint as extreme dread took over my mind, mixing up my emotions and not letting me think. I began to tremble as unwanted thoughts of despair blended in.Pushing deeper into the depths of turmoil, my grip on Ryan's hand tightened.“It’s alright, Rebecca.”I shut my eyes as my breath became heavy, my heart felt like pricking as the images of the day Jane died came to my mind.“No, it’s not.” I whispered. Tears pricked in the corner of my eyes, my distressed form couldn't even comprehend anything.
My heart was torn to countless pieces. Regret ate me upon seeing her like this. She let out loud sobs as tears also rolled down my cheeks in heartbreak and remorse as Rebecca began to say between the sobs. "Please Ryan.. I beg you. Take everything away from me.. But.. But please.. Don't do this for me.. I.. I can't live without you.. You are my everything.” She cried. “My life.. My breath.. My heartbeat.. My smiles.. My reason to live.. Everything resides in you. Please don't take it away… please don't leave me.. I will do anything. But please.. Don't hate me. Don't leave me…” Her words evoked woeful tears, the realization that my presence is all she needs and I failed to realize this. “You are my hope for tomorrow.. After taking me out from the abyss. Don't leave me there anymore. After becoming my light, don't fade away.. Please, I beg you Ryan. Don't do this to me…" She begged, lowering her head. A loud gasp of sob escaped my lips as I held her hand and kissed them, rele
Ryan POV:- There is an eerie silence in the house. It doesn't feel like home at all. I missed Rebecca a lot and felt so heartbroken when I couldn't be able to tell her how much I love her and what her worth is; which is greater than any riches of heaven. Even if I try, I can’t tell her how vast my love for her is. A pain inflicted on me and hurt me a lot to see the empty wall as no sound of Rebecca can be heard anywhere. No smiles of hers reached my eyes. I want nothing from God but to bow in front of her. I worship you too. She is present in my very prayer but Dad plus the doctor's words are pushing me in turmoil. I have to let her go because I am
My eyes slowly opened when a bright light fell upon my face. I blinked a few times to adjust my vision. My heart felt hollow as I felt so weak. I looked around and found myself in Marianne's room. My throat was dry. I shifted and saw Marianne, sleeping on the couch. “Papa…?” I slowly sat up, my head hurt along with an aching pain in my heart. I put my hand over my head and closed my eyes, feeling heartbroken. “Marianne?” The creaking sound of the door made me think that it's Ryan so I quickly shot my head but the one who came was Papa. "Papa." I whispered. "Oh, My child, Finally you are awake." Papa came and patted my head. He sat beside me as I
Rebecca POV:- My everything came to halt when Ryan told me that we have lost our child. My world came to a crash, my breaths stopped, my mind went blank, my reason to live suddenly began to feel meaningless. “What have I done?” I was willing to bear any pain with a smile but this is something unbearable. It's all my fault, my pathetic decision killed my child. “No, this has to be a lie…” I was on fire, my eyes couldn't see. My body couldn't feel anything but devastation. A deadly ravage roamed in every inch of my core. I was losing my breath. Nothing in this world can be comparable to this heartbreaking pain. I was damaged beyond repair, killed from inside.
An involuntary smile crept upon my lips when I read it. Getting some motivation on how to love from him. If Jayden loves someone, that person would be lucky. If I didn't give this to Rebecca, I would be unfair. I can feel the pain of his words. I put it in my pocket and went home. My heart skipped a beat as unnerving thoughts stirred my mind. I went home after two days, I hoped Rebecca would be alright. I guess at that time, she must have thought about things… about us. Now Jayden is gone, the only way to find liberation for Rebecca is.. divorce. I shuddered when I thought about it. I swallowed hard and searched for Rebecca. “Where’s Rebecca? I told you to
"Don't touch me!" I said, holding her arms and pushing her away, unintentionally it was a little hard which caused her to stumble and it tore my heart. How can I be so harsh? "Why are you doing this?!" She shouted, falling on the ground. "I never desired you in the first place, get out of my life." I said looking down at her. Her breath hitched when she heard it. She looked at me with a hint of astonishment. Invoking a ravage inside her, throwing her into an endless pit of turmoil. “W.. What?” She kept looking at me to find any hint of affection but the only thing which was plastered on my face was seriousness which intoxicated her in venom.
Ryan POV:- I have told so many harsh things to Rebecca, she is hurt. My words are breaking her heart, my whole being is giving her scars. I am doing things to her which I never thought I would. I am deliberately pushing her away and being this cold to her hurt me. I don't want to do it but I have no control over my senses and I am lost in the delusion that she can only be happy if she stays away from me. “Doctor, I complied with your word but… my distances were only hurting her.” I said sadly. “I know, Rebecca told me. Ryan, I know taking the responsibility of an emotionally fragile person is extremely hard. I doubt you could do it.” He sighed. “There is a possibility,
The next day, I woke up and saw Ryan sleeping beside me. A smile crept upon my lips when I saw him but It was a sad one and the only question on my mind was, 'Why are you refraining yourself, why are you pushing me away?' I closed my eyes and remained like this, not wanting this moment to end and wishing that he doesn't go back to his cold personality again. "Are you awake?" He asked softly, my heart skipped a beat, worried he might not scold me. I nodded and said faintly, "Thank you." He hummed and shifted. We both sat up and I kept smiling at him. No words were exchanged between us as we both got ready and he did what my Father did.
None of us spoke another word after it as the time passed quickly and I went home even if I didn't want to. "Where were you?" I heard Ryan's strict voice from behind, he was leaning on the wall looking at me direly which made my heart race at his dominance. "Why do you care?" I scoffed, folding my arms. "I am tired of living in that room. I will sleep in my room, come if you want." He said nonchalantly. My eyes widened for a second when I heard it. A shiver went down my spine, I turned to look at him. "Don't leave me, Ryan. Please." I said in a barely audible tone. "I won't stay in that room. Learn how to deal with your fears." He said firmly, which immerse
