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?

    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?   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 beginning

    Flashback : One Month ago,"I refuse to marry him," Rose said firmly.But instead of getting riled up, Daniel just stared back at her with a stoic expression."Aren't you up to your neck in debt Miss Rose? My brother is in love with you. He is capable of not only keeping you happy but also giving a better life to your family. I suggest that you think over your decision one more time" said his brother.Her hand balled in a fist.Those words just infuriated her more because she is anything but one of those greedy, helpless and dependent girls who are waiting for their knight in shining armor to save them from their misery but before she could retort back, Daniel replied sternly instead."Mason, don't do that. It should entirely be her decision and I will completely respect it if she refuses to marry a handicapped person like me. But yes, I would like to state it clear for once that if Rose decides to marry me, I would definitely treat her family as my own." She just stared back at him

    Next day.Rose's point of view:Scene from the Dining area,As i headed out, "The breakfast is ready" I heard Daniel's voice getting me out of my daze."I am really getting late. I'd just grab something on the way." I reasoned out."Everything else can wait. Please eat. I would like to have a pretty company too for a change." He insisted in his sultry voice, staring right back at me.Pretty? Okay..I could feel my cheeks catching fire. I am not used to compliments hence it did feel weird or rather weirdly good precisely.I am sure my face has turned a lighter shade of red. Damn!At least the man knows to charm the woman with words.Letting out a sigh, I pulled out a chair for me to sit right next to him."Who made the breakfast?" I asked being curious."It's Lucy, our only maid. She has to attend her college too hence, she comes early to make breakfast and then attends her college and after college, she works here as helper till late evening." Daniel replied, digging in his breakfas

    Rose's point of view :The next day,On waking up, I was surprised to find myself alone in the bed. It's 8 in the morning and he wasn't back yet.As I walked out of the room, I heard some scrabbling noises from the kitchen. On Walking closer to an unfamiliar figure in my kitchen, I observed a blonde woman engulfed in scratching and rubbing something near the kitchen's sink."Hi, you must be Lucy, right? " I said standing behind her a few distance away. My voice made her stiff like a statue on her spot. She did not turn for a good few seconds. How can I not be suspicious then? Instead of acknowledging my presence, she is acting like a deer caught in the spotlight at the moment.Finally turning her head a little towards me, not completely, just slightly, she replied " Um hi. Yes, I am Lucy" of course i found it strange!"I did the dishes last night. So, what are you doing there?" I asked, curious as i tried peeking a little but couldn't see anything. Her body was covering the sink as

    Rose Point of views :A kNIFE?With my eyes now wide opened, I felt myself frozen on my spot. My heartbeats echoed in my ears and my breath was hitched.Why does he have a knife in his suit pocket? I frowned."Are you okay?" Daniel asked in a calm voice yet it sent shivers down my spine.My mouth felt dry. On lifting my gaze to look at him, i noticed his narrowed gaze on me and thus quickly averting my eyes from him, I just looked down keeping a straight faceDid he figure out that I had seen it?What would I do if he did? But well, that can't be good.I swallowed hard, wishing I could just disappear in the air.Nodding in response, I somehow managed to stand up on my feet."I'd go get ready for college" I managed to say somehow in an audible voice.Excusing myself, I paced as fast as i could walking inside the bedroom.TWO HOURS LATER,In the lunch break,"A KNIFE?" Jessy asked back, clearly astonished to hear about it too."Yeah and could you please lower your voice. You are too lo

    Next Day.Rose's point of view :Scene from the college,"He lied? Really?" Jessy asked again puzzled."Yes" I simply said."So, you mean to say that he just simply refused to accept that he carries some unique kind of knife around with him." She said again."Yes. He said I might have mistaken a pen as a knife. Can you believe him?" I told her."Did you?" I heard her asking back immediately then."WHAT?" I was bewildered by her response."I am sorry but it could be a possibility. Why would he carry a knife with him?" She replied back with a frown.I narrowed my eyes on her and said "Not you at least." "Okay. I am sorry. I didn't mean to imply that you are lying. But maybe....uh, you are mistaken." She replied with hesitation."Yes because I am that dumb, right?" I told her in a louder voice with a glare."Oh, come on! You don't have to get offended" she whines."You know what I don't want to talk about my weirdo husband especially not with you anymore" I said and with that moved to w

    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

    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

    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

    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 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!"
