FLASHBACK:Rose's point of views :Scene from the bedroom,It's still unsettling what happened back in the living room. What was that?Daniel isn't someone who could be trusted and I know that.He has a secret of his own. Then why did I feel what I felt in his presence?Why did I feel safe and relieved seeing him back home? There was certainly an undeniable connection. A sense of comfort in his presence.Urgh!What's wrong with me?Why do I always fall for the wrong guy?Is it Stockholm syndrome?Well, Daniel isn't my captor though. Neither does he seem like the wrong guy.But he could be a wrong guy.This attraction can't be good. Not unless I know his secret.Eluding a sigh, memories of the incident flashed in my eyes.Who was that person on the phone call?Where did the person in the backyard go? I did see someone in the backyard. Who was he? Daniel's behaviour was also very odd. He seemed aware of something.Clearly, he knows something I don't know. Is he trying to protect me

Creepy

A week later,As Rose sat in the backseat of the car by his side, she felt a pang of conscience asking her why is she still with him?The thought has been bothering her for a long time now. Although she has been feigning indifference and giving cold shoulder to Daniel since the past few days, she still just couldn't figure out what is stopping her from cutting the ties off with him for once and all."Thanks for accompanying me to this party" she heard Daniel's soft voice that interrupted her thoughts.But giving no response back and she just kept her gaze firm staring outside the window.Her ignorance did hurt him but like always he shrugged the thought away.Nevertheless, he was genuinely happy to still have her by his side."A happily ever after feels like an unfeasible dream at this point of time but no matter what, at least he would keep his promise to keep her safe until his very last breath" he thought.TWO HOURS LATER,Scene from the party :Rose stood there in one corner of t

Complicated

NEXT MORNING : Daniel's point of views :Scene from the living room :Daniel was busy on his laptop when Lucy walked in."She left early today as well?" Lucy asked as soon she stepped in the room.While I just nodded back in response."Don't you think it would be better if she is aware of the whole truth?" She asked back.My eyes instantly went on her.Heaving out a sigh,"That would just make her more anxious. I would never want a life like that for her." I replied to her back."But she doesn't trust us and that's definitely not a good thing" she said."I know but winning her trust isn't my concern right now, keeping her safe is." I told her.The next second, my phone's sound filled the air space."Hello" My eyes slowly widened."WHAT?" I said out loud not believing my ears.SCENE FROM THE POLICE STATION :"The number by which the stalker had contacted your wife is no longer available as expected. We would let you know if we find any other information about the stalker Mr. Maxfield

It has become hard to the extent that she cannot even differentiate between her reality and her imagination now. She felt there were eyes everywhere, on the street, at home, just everywhere watching her!It was frustrating!Sighing, as she shut the laptop, she noticed Lucy walking in."Looks like Daniel is late again.

LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT?

DANIEL'S POINT OF VIEWS :I never wanted to have anything in life that I couldn't stand losing. But now, it's too late for that.Rose has become an obsession for me already.Not seeing her makes me anxious.They say after love, no one is what they were before. I couldn't agree more with that.It's love that has put me in the dilemma of either taking the chance of losing her by confessing the truth or putting her life in danger by not telling her the whole truth.Either way, I'd be losing.Sighing,What can be sadder than realising that you have fallen madly in love with something that might never be?The thought formed a sad smile on my lips."Daniel.." I heard a faint voice that got me out of my thoughts.It was Lucy walking in with a familiar face."This is Jessy. She is here to meet Rose." Lucy said."Hey. We met at your wedding" Jessy said."Yes. Hi" I said.In no second, Rose walked out of her room too.Looking at Jessy, she acted to follow her in the room when Jessy said "We'd

Another rainy night

LATE NIGHT,Rose's point of views :Ever since I have known that there is a freaking psycho that's behind my existence, a moment of relief has been so hard to attain.I am just always afraid. I have been getting nightmares almost every second night.Now, Scrambling through the streets, I didn't dare to look behind me. I was scared.Scared of being chased by someone.It was yet another rainy night and I couldn't spot a single soul on the road, at least not as far as I could see.I tried listening to footsteps but the rain was deafening with occasional blares of thunder.The street lights above were illuminating the deserted road. Taking a shortcut doesn't feel as good an option now as it seemed earlier. Darting across the street, rushing towards the corner, I froze on my spot.The lights in the area were out. I could feel my heart pounding in my chest now.I scanned the lane to search for some hope but could find no one.My eyes grew wide as soon as I heard a splash behind me.Insti

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

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.

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

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
