Ella's POVI was suffocating inside the washroom. No one was opening the door. I am stuck inside attempting multiple tries to open the door, calling out for the help. But neither did anyone opened the door nor did anyone showed out for help."What if everyone left already?" A thought crossed my mind which scared the hell out of me."Ella...are you there?"Finally, someone called me out.I hastily replied, "Yes, please open the door." Eventually, the door open and I saw Kristen standing by the door. I instantly hugged her tight showering my gratitude. "Are you alright? I was really scared when Aviv inquired about your whereabouts with me. I thought you were with him, but how could I be a fool. Last time he left you with me, and here I was roaming around, totally unaware about you being in trouble," Kristen confessed."Thank you so much Kristen for coming searching for me. Actually the door..." She interrupted hastily, "I am really sorry. Actually, we were already warned about the pro
Ella's POVWhen Aviv said we were about to attend a funeral, I went numb and was not able to ask him anything. Numerous questions were crossing my mind, but I was not able to utter any of it. I heartily wished if Aviv could hear those loud questions and provide me with the answers, which I was carving to know. But it never happened, he just stayed mute and dragged me inside towards the hall.Hall was filled with the cacophony of loud music, people were enjoying, dancing, singing, talking and laughing. Gripping my wrist tight Aviv pulled me through the crowd. Once again, I was driving back to our childhood memories, where he used to grip my wrist in a similar manner and guide me to walk.He called Aster who was attending some of his guests. Just in one call, Aster asked for an excuse with his guests and followed us to the corner."We need to leave Aster," Aviv said in an upset accent."What? Why? The ceremony has not come to an end yet, there are still lots of things to be done. Furth
Ella's POVI was not able to accept what my eyes were seeing. I was feeling like I was having the worst nightmare of my life. A nightmare from which I wanted to wake up as soon as possible.God knew how many times I pinched myself to assure that I was not dreaming. I was shivering not with cold but with the truth, which I had to face whole my life that Suzi, one who I took as my sister was no more with me.I was feeling Aviv's grip tightening on my arms and dragging me out of the morgue. Tears were streaming down my tears without any break.My heart was asking just one question to God, "Why God? Why always me?"After so long I was having a bit of happiness in my life and had started to feel my life complete. Getting them in my life I had started to enjoy my life and felt the essence in true love. They were my strength and reason to breathe, but why was I always dropped down like this.Wasn't I supposed to receive any happiness?Everyone who I loved always went far from me. Every time t
Aviv's POVSlowly and gently I held Ella on my arms making sure not to wake her up from her deep sleep. I carried her to her room and placed her on the bed very carefully. I did it being vigilant about not enduring a single chance to offend her deep sleep, as she hadn't slept since the previous night.She was in desperate need of rest to deal with the horrible stuff happening. Catching a glimpse of her sleeping peacefully eased my heart. I gently caressed her cheeks and placed a kiss on her forehead.Time was really being hard on her. I strongly wished if I could take all her sorrows and fill her life with an abundance of happiness. But my every attempt was failing.I stepped out of her room and left my room. I stood under the shower for a long time with droplets of water dribbling down my body. My mind was on chaos. I had no idea about what was going on those few days. I was feeling like I was struggling to capture a flying butterfly, but every time I got close to it, I plummeted ha
Ella's POVI sat on the floor staring at the canvas which had a dull painting. Soon after Aviv left my room, I had woke up. I had no mind of going anywhere, so I painted for a long time.I heard the car engine starting. I stepped to the window, glanced Aviv leaving. I prayed to god deep inside to keep him safe.After a while, I entered the washroom and took a long shower. I wore a light t-shirt and a pair of jeans, then I walked downstairs.I caught a glimpse of Marry being busy in the kitchen. Without informing her anything, I left the house. I walked out of the gate and stood on the pavement for a while. I had not decided where to go but still, I stopped a cab.Thinking for some time, I finally decided and instructed the driver to take me to the hospital. I wanted to see Erik and find out if h had got better or not.The whole way to the hospital, my mind was not able to stop thinking about the incident that occurred. Suzi's face was coming fresh on my mind continuously.I strolled t
Ella's POVIt would be a joke if I returned to Aviv's home after all the things that happened. But still, I had nowhere to go. As I was an orphan, I had no one whom I can rely on.With difficulty, I had got some but one after another they all were fading away. And the saddest part was I had no other option, rather than standing ideally and offering them good-bye.Far at the horizon, the sun was all set to depart giving the final touch of orange to the sky, but I had no shelter above my head. I began to miss my past life, working in-store, living in a small rented apartment.At least I had life, though it was dismal still, I was living no matter how hopeless life it was, the good thing about it was I had no rivalry. I had nothing to prove except earning and living.Time had provoked me twice but that moment, it had slapped hard on my cheeks with none other than my dearest friend Aviv.But I had made up my mind that, I was not going to lose myself this time. I was not going back to those
Ella's POVWhen Megan arrived with the health personnel, they took the waitress to the hospital. Megan and I took a cab and drove to the hospital.We stood in the waiting section anxiously. We both were panicked, as the waitress with whom we had so high hope was admitted to the hospital and the biggest thing was there was very little chance of her survival.She was only the person, who could assist us to reach the culprit. I prayed for her survival.When the doctor appeared out of the emergency room, we hurried towards him."How... How is she, doctor?" I was first to interrogate.The doctor first peeled off the mask from his face, uncovering his upset expression, and replied, "she is no more, we couldn't save her. She lost an excessive amount of blood and couldn't survive."I took a step back feeling numb. The only hope that could lead me to the culprit was proclaimed deceased.My mind only one thought that moment, "How was I supposed to get the culprit now?"Soon the policemen arrived
Ella's POV"Mayalu, please wake up. Mayalu look at me." Far at the distance, I was hearing Aviv's cracked voice. I was hearing him sobbing. I was even hearing his tears streaming down his eyes and suddenly I felt my hand wet.I slowly opened my eyes and glanced around. I saw Aviv sitting beside me lowering his head and sobbing. His tears were dropping down on my hands. "Av..." I called out in a weak voice. Aviv hastily raised his head and glanced at me with eyes full of tears. He instantly held me up and hugged me tightly."I am really very sorry MAYALU. I will never ever shout at you. It's all my fault. I am sorry please don't you ever go leaving me alone," he said in a quivering voice.I was feeling his words going straight to my heart.Since childhood, he was very emotional and sensitive. And this had still not changed.He was very afraid of losing people, possibly because of being an orphan, like me. I thought that he had got a family so he might have changed but no he wasn't. H

Hurry up or else we will get late,” I called out knocking on the door.“Yes, coming,” he replied and in a short while the door opened revealing my handsome twenty-five years old son Lucas.“Oh! My godbrother you are looking so handsome,” Mini my sixteen years old daughter said from behind me.“What do you say, Maggie?” she asked her twin sister Maggie.Maggie scanned him top to bottom and rolling her eyes said, “uh! Satisfactory.”“Come on, Maggie don’t be so mean. It’s his wedding day,” Mini said in annoyance.“I am just kidding you look so good, brother,” said Maggie and ran towards her brother to hug him.“No, no not my arms,” Mini said and jumped into his left arms.Lucas hugged them both and said, “thank you, my cute sisters. You both are also looking beautiful.”“Hug him as much as you want,” I said chuckling, trying to barge into their conversation.“Hm, what does that mean?’ questioned Mini looking at me.“He is going to get married today, so of

Aviv's POV“Don’t remind me of that day, Garry. I really hate those moments when I was suffering in that prison, all because of that Ella…” Becca muttered.“If only she had not killed my mother, she would at least be spared but she crossed all her limits. So I had to give the taste of what she did with me. Now I have sent her to the place where she can never come back,” Garry said clutching the glass tight.‘So, this was it. I wondered why Garry was taking help from the one who murdered his mother. Becca had lied to him saying Ella killed her. Very well she played,’ I thought inside.“But I must say, I really enjoyed pressing that button. I wanted to see them turning into pieces but unfortunately, I couldn’t risk going near their Mansion and just entertained myself by clicking the button,” Becca said.Anger simmered inside hearing her and blood boiled up. It was her the reason behind the blast at my house. It was time for them to pay for the deeds they had done. “How dare you try to h

Aviv’s POVEarly morning we landed on L.A and walked towards our mission to find Ella.“So, where do we start?” questioned James getting on the cab.I slipped inside the cab and thought for a while.“We should start from hospital, I guess,” I replied solemnly.“Yeah, we can start there,” Erik agreed.We drove to the hospital right after that.“Have you seen this woman?” I questioned the receptionist showing her the picture of Ella.She glanced at the picture carefully and said, “isn't she the one who lost her baby?”“Yeah…” I hurriedly nodded my head.“A day before she came and was asking if she could check the CCTV footage,” she replied.“And?”“I couldn’t let her do that as we couldn’t let her check it without our boss's permission and he was out of town when she was here,” she replied."A lady lost her child in your hospital and you didn't let her check the CCTV?" I was losing my mind."That is how it works here sir," she replied."Great, you don't care what the patience faces in yo

How can she be this easy-going?As I was lost in thought, I heard the door opening and someone walking inside. I closed my heart and gulped hard.Trying best to not vent my anger on anyone, I said, “I don’t want to hear anything, Erik. You better leave yourself or else I will not regret chasing you away.”

Not just child I was supposed to save my family, Erik and Mary they were my family. Now they are gone, Ella is also gone how am I going to survive?”I watched my home falling into ash, in which the ash of my family was also mixed. I wanted to catch those ash and keep it with me. I stood on my feet and tried to collect the ashes on my hands but no matter how hard I tried to catch, I was not able to collect any of them.
