WHO IS HE? Sure?
ROSE 'S POINT OF VIEWS: Scene from the living room,Trust issues are nothing new for me.I always take my good time trusting people. But it has never bothered me to such an extent.I guess it's because of the bond that we share.On top of that, it's of course his secret the biggest obstacle!His damn secret! What else could it be?I would never be able to trust him with all my heart unless I knew who he was.Letting out a frustrated sigh, I stood up to scroll across the room.Restlessness has become my constant.Sighing,My mind subconsciously recalled his narration of the night when we first met.His words felt so genuine that evening.I could recollect some scenes from the night in flashes but most of the parts are still blurry. I don't remember the conversation we had that night.I have never been so drunk like I was that night. Ironically, the most important night of my life had to be the night I chose to get wasted.Letting out a frustrated chuckle, I settled back on the big so
WHO IS HE? Bolt from the blue
Rose's point of views :I looked down at the laptop like all my hope lies in it. "This would surely lead me to something" I was affirmed.Walking back in the room and settling on the study table, I wasted no second and started searching every folder for the saved recordings.This is my biggest chance.I have never felt so desperate in my life like I am feeling now.I want my answers.I want some clarity in my life.This has to work in my favor.This just has to work. (Chanting to myself)Come on!With a heavy sigh, I continued the search.AN HOUR LATER,Had expected it to not be an easy task but could never have thought that it would be so complicated.It's quite advanced.Spent an hour of innumerable futile attempts only to conclude that this isn't my cup of tea.Every damn thing is password protected or requires coding.Finally, fisting a punch in the air out of frustration and controlling my urge to scream out loud, I settled on the edge of my bed with my head resting on my palm.
WHO IS HE? Too late?
Tell a lie once and all truths become questionable.Rose's point of views :I was breathing hard. Trying hard to put my thoughts together. For days, I believed in a reality that wasn't real.It was all a lie!Just a well executed lie!I don't even know the person I am married to. I always knew this but it's like now suddenly, the depth of the situation sunk in.My hands shook as tears teetered my vision."Everything is a lie" I murmured to myself.I feel betrayed.He is a liar.I just know one thing and that is I don't want to go back to that face again.AN HOUR LATER,"She took your laptop with her. She is definitely up to something. Why did you just gave it to her?" Lucy asked back loudly "At this moment, my secret is not even the last thing I am worried about." Daniel replied back. He seemed calm on the outer but inside, Rose's absence was killing him."Chase, did you get any leads from her?" Daniel asked.In no time, they heard the sound of the doorbell and Lucy went straight to
WHO IS HE? BACK IN TIME
DANIEL'S POINT OF VIEWS :We think we have finally understood life a little better. We think we have everything planned out and life would go as per our plans but life has its way to come as the most unpredictable entity.If someone had told me that someday, I would be so madly in love with someone that her absence would bother me to the extent that it would drive me crazy and nothing else would matter, I would have surely laughed my heart out at that.But today, it has actually become my reality.How did I end up being this person?It's still baffling!It's been two days since the rose has gone.Time seems to have stopped for me. No work, no distraction is good enough to keep her out of my thoughts.Sighing,It's not like before Rose, my relationships were great. I could never get the right pace in relationships even then. I was never too ready for the long time commitments and yes, relationships for such people don't end up well.But it never bothered me.I never craved for romance
WHO IS HE? The night that changed everything
DANIEL'S POINT OF VIEWS :Flashback continues :It's not just another Friday night.Looks like tonight, Miss Rose has decided to spend all her hard earned money on getting wasted.She already had around six to seven vodka shots and she is definitely having some more.What's wrong with her?Where is that jerk of her boyfriend? How could he just abandon her like that?suddenly i was enraged.I was hating what she was doing to herself so much that i had to curl up my fist to stop myself from bolting there and knocking some sense in her.All these while, maybe protecting her from a far has changed something inside me. Denial would be a lie.I am attracted to her. Attraction Like metals to magnets.It's something new for me as well.Very new!I was lost battling in my thoughts just when suddenly she perked her head up and turned to give a glance to her surrounding and that's when her eyes met mine and they just remain locked then As cliche as it may sound, it was truly like one of those H
WHO IS HE? on watch
PRESENT SCENARIO:DANIEL'S POINT OF VIEWS:Do you ever feel you have fu*ked up somewhere and is actually living a wrong life or a bad version of life you were supposed to have?Well...That's how everyday feels like to me now.Sighing,Nevertheless, i am still here.I don't know if I would get another chance to fulfill my marriage's promises but one oath that I will fulfil until my very last breath is to protect her. To keep her safe. So here I am standing right outside her building in disguise keeping my promise.In disguise because she doesn't have to know about my presence. Never thought I would say this but If my absence give her the peace she deserves, I would happily give up on us for her.I only want her safe and happy.Now that i have lost her, i am understanding the depth of my own love.Love makes you do things you never would have imagined yourself doing.It makes you selfless. Yes the distance hurt but to know that she is safe and sound is also enough.Eluding a sigh,Onc
WHO IS HE? The first meet
Daniel's point of views :"Uh...hi" I finally said mustering up the courage.Her flaring nose and stiffened expression made it quite obvious that she was pissed."WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE DRESSED LIKE A HIPPIE?" She asked back barely keeping her tone in check."Uh...I missed you so much that I just wanted to see you once and so I..." I was replying back when she cut my words with a wry laugh"Bullshit! You are just having a watch on me, aren't you?" she scowled.For a moment or two, i simply gaped back and said nothing.So she know.How is it that she always finds out everything?she is really something Finally eluding out a sigh, i gave in."Yeah. Well, can you blame me for that? I care for you. There is a stalker after you. I was worried for you" I finally replied.Well...it is what it is.Rolling her eyes,"Where did you get this attire from?" She asked, giving me a good glance from head to toe."Um, I just managed somehow" I replied back in low voice An awkward silence f
WHO IS HE? Normal couple?
ROSE'S POINT OF VIEWS :Daniel and I were anything but a normal newly wedded couple in the months we spent together.I admit there was always an attraction but never thought it was so deep that now the separation is so painful.Sometimes it takes someone's absense to make you realise the value of someone's presence.It's so true.Can't believe i miss him.I should have felt relieved when he was talking about the separationBut I didn't feel an ounce of relief.Sighing,Things have just got sadder ever since I have moved out of that house.It's like everyday, I am secretly waiting for something. I don't even know what exactly. Just something that would make sense.This is not how I expected my life to be. Especially not in my twenties. I should be happy. I never wanted this marriage in the first place. It was impelled on me! I don't understand the delimma. Why aint I feel good about the separation news?Daniel is willing to let go.Why am I not happy then?My heart goes out for him I

WHO IS HE? Different
Rose's point of views :Time flies.Tomorrow is our eight months dating anniversary.Yes...It's been eight months since I moved in with him.It's been eight months of us dating.Heaving out a soft sigh,A blissful eight months I can say.We got to know each other better.And,Day by day,Piece by piece,Slowly and soundlessly, I fell in love with him deeply.I realised that Daniel is more than just a charming, sensible, Mr. Always the serious, stoic expression guy that I used to think of. He could be funny and romantic at times too. Yes! Romantic too. His tender caresses and those passionate kisses take my breath away and leave my soul in a never ending trance.Anyways..The best part is that he totally gets me.It's hard to put it into words what it's like to be with him.For me, he is like a shade that I can walk into, anytime life burns me.I have never been so 'Me' before him.There is never an effort with him. Basically, our bond grew stronger over these eight months.Or so I t
WHO IS HE? I love you too?
Daniel's point of views :Seeing her after so long and just being so close to her, It felt as if someone up there finally answered my prayers and I only wished that the night never ends.Confessing my love was just in the fit of impulse with no expectation.I have confessed my feelings to her innumerable times before too but she never reciprocated them. I have always believed that love is not something that needs to be chased or forced on. Thus, I have always respected her feelings even though it killed me to push her away.But now, when she said..."Daniel...I love you too"Everything just freezed for me. I couldn't believe my ears. For a second, I thought I was totally imagining it.I felt so unsure if I heard it right.Those words are what I have been longing to hear her say since eternity.Did she actually just say it? It still feels unbelievable!"Huh?" Yes! That was my response.She chuckled clearly seeing my flushed expression."I love you Daniel" she said again with a smile i
WHO IS HE? The right one
Rose's point of views :He finally looked up. He had his mask on that covered half of his face but as soon he looked up, those deep as ocean, brown eyes met mine and it was as if the time just stopped.I already knew who he was.And then finally...He took off his mask.A soft gasp escaped my mouth and my hands instinctively went down.He is here...Is he really?Am I dreaming? I pinched myself. It did hurt.He is actually here standing in front of me staring right back at me. He has changed. He looks different with a grown beard and long hair that reached upto his shoulder.Yet his stare still had an effect on me.With his gaze firm on me, he said nothing but simply stared back unblinked. While I couldn't form words too.This feels unreal.Why do all the fairytales feel true each time he looks back at me?"Are you okay?" He asked back in voice lacing concern that got me out of my trance.I noticed how my breathing has gotten rapid now.His expression wasn't his characteristic stoic
WHO IS HE? caught
Rose's point of views :It's 3 am,The world out there probably half slept and half awakened.The freezing chill outside my living room's window, moonlit desk by my bed, I am observing everything. Inside, it isn't completely dark even with the lights switched off.I am sleepy and tired yet lingering to stay awake in my living room, observing the CCTV footage. Can't miss the chance. One irrefutable evidence is all i need.Jesse is pretending to sleep in my bedroom with her back facing the window. Not only did I need her for the plan but I also lacked the courage to do it by myself. She was aware of the plan and all we are doing is just waiting for the right moment.Apparently ,Nothing strange has happened so far. Or am I missing something? I couldn't tell.With another yawn eluding my lips, when my eyes shifted back to the laptop's screen, I noticed the uncanny finally.I moved closer to the screen and my eyes gradually widened.A shadow?When I slightly zoomed in to my bedroom's
WHO IS HE? Neighbour
Rose's point of views :New day, new morning.Weekends are finally over and unlike others, I don't get Monday blues.I like my work.My work is like an escape from my reality. The reality that has nothing to offer but loneliness. Hence, I look forward to my work. I look forward to meeting new people, to know their story, to give my contribution in their life to bring a good change and to take a lesson for me to keep on continuing. There are too many silent sufferers out there and I want to reach out to them. Help them!That has been my driving force for a year. That is what has kept me going.I paused for a moment to look at myself in the glass window.Hmn. I look normal. So normal that nobody would ever guess that beneath the facade lies a perfectly flawed woman with a broken heart.That's good!With a sigh, I walked ahead.Walking outside the narrow lane, as I crossed the road to reach the bus stand, I saw a similar face staring back at me.Being not a very social person, I often
WHO IS HE? Nice guy?
Rose's point of views :Not belonging is a terrible feeling. It makes you feel awkward. Never thought I would have such a feeling sitting in my own living room.Letting out another soft yawn,But I really don't belong here. These are not my people.I feel stuck in this Crowd with the majority of the unknown faces. Time to time, my eyes instinctively went to the wall clock. I'd rather have prefered to be alone reading a book and eating the leftover pizza in peace than sitting in my crowded living room, sipping alcohol, looking at the bunch of nincompoops dancing to the deafening music."Will you stop being grumpy?" I heard Jessy talking.I gave her a glare."When I had said party, I didn't mean you taking a corner in the room cursing under your breath. Just relax and enjoy" she said. "It's in my nature to stay in a corner and just observe others." I replied back."Come on!" She said,"I still don't understand the purpose of this party" I told her, annoyed by her over persistent natur
WHO IS HE? crazy?
ROSE'S POINT OF VIEWS :Next morning started with the continuous sound of the doorbell that woke me up.Looking up at the wall clock, I realised I slept longer than my usual time. The terrible headache made it even worse."What a perfect start of the day!" I whined getting out of the bed.With a loud growl, I walked towards the door.I knew who it could be.Who else!It has to be the most annoying person I know."WHAT?" I growled unlocking the door."What do you mean by what? I have been so worried for you since last night. How could you just hang the phone like that? What's the matter with you?" Jessy blabbered."Could you please lower your voice. Damn it! I just woke up" I told her with gritted teeth."I understood that by noticing your grumpy self. I got you breakfast. Get ready and come out fast" she said in a lowered voice this time."I am not hungry. It's my day off. I will eat my breakfast for lunch. So thanks and now just leave me alone" I snapped back "You are more grumpy to
WHO IS HE? overwhelm
Rose's point of views :There are times when longing for you overwhelms me Daniel and I think of you with clenched teeth because it's just so frustrating!That's exactly what happened today.Mike was indeed a great guy. He was calm and composed and so well mannered but the problem was me. I couldn't help but compare him with you. The way he talked, the way he smiled back, the way he was groomed today, I judged everything and compared everything with you Daniel like you are the top notch bar I have set for me and then somehow his charm just faded and I just ended up missing you even more.After that, I declined his offer for a second date.I felt bad doing that but I just couldn't say a yes.It's all your fault Daniel!I wonder when will I stop searching for a smile just like your's and wonder when will I stop looking for the familiar spark which you used to have in the eyes of others.Why is it so impossible?I let out a sigh walking down the lane. I don't know if you have really m
WHO IS HE? Second chance?
Rose's point of views :"Will you hurry up?" I heard Jessy growl."This is my best speed. Besides, we are just going to a cafe nearby so what's the hurry?" I replied back simply."I have a date later on. I have to get ready for that. I haven't even decided on the dress yet" she said."Another date? With whom? The same guy you met last month? What was his name? Sam? " I asked back."No. This one is a new one named Jason. I met him in the library last week." She replied back as we moved out of my apartment."Wow! That's fast! Until last week you were with Sam and now Jason. Must say You move on really fast" I commented."Well, you should too. Daniel isn't coming back after all" she replied as we got settled in her car.Ouch! That pricked!Gulping the lump of emotion i felt,"I...i am not waiting for him either" I retorted back."You don't have to lie. Not at least to me." She replied back while driving."I am not lying!" I told her straight away.I was."Okay, Great! Because you should
