She was beautiful
An epitome of perfection
With those loving eyes and welcoming smile
Anyone can fall for her
"Welcome miss Stone.. How are you doing?"
Maria asked with a wide smile on her face which was rare as she mostly had a scowl on .
"I am great Maria, how are you and how are my little bundles of joy? Are they going to school regularly?"
She asked referring to the two children Maria has
Her voice was so sweet and calming
Each word she spoke sounded perfect and her accent was something I never heard before.
It was a mix of British and Italian I guess but altogether it was a voice you will never get bored listening to.
"I am good and so are Evan and Ray, they were so excited to meet you!!They wanted to bunk school to meet you but I insisted them to go"
"Well I am staying here only ,bring them when they come back. I also really want to meet them.."
She was an angel
I mean she is the Heir of billions of net worth and still she is so grounded.
I can't believe this
I can't believe she is for real
"Good Morning Miss Andrea "
Aria said offering her a glass of water
She took the glass and replied
"A very good morning Aria. Thank you"
I stayed silent watching her every move and I must admit I couldn't find a single flaw in her.
I heard Andro's footsteps
When I looked up there he was making his way towards us with long confident steps.
I was staring at him and I thought he was also looking at me with a bright smile but how badly mistaken I was
He walked passed me and I realized he was looking at her as she was standing behind me.
He engulfed her in a hug and sounds of aww could be heard around.
It hurts
A feeling of dread and loneliness engulfed me
I crossed my arms to stop this uneasy feeling but it still lingered on.
I turned around to leave but his next words made me stop
"Miss Brown bring two cups of tea !"
He ordered and I replied without turning around
"Y..Yes S..ir"
I hurriedly ran passed them
I reached the kitchen and filled a glass of water for my medicine
Breathing was getting difficult and I placed the medicine in my mouth with shaking hands.
I inhaled and exhaled huge amounts of air
Breathe ...Saph... Breath
I tried to calm myself but it was easier said than done
I tried to distract myself and started preparing their tea, getting the cups ready and filling the bowls with snacks .
Aria entered
"Hey Saph you need some help?"
"No ..Ari ..I am good"
I said trying to act normal
"Are you alright Saph?Your voice is quivering.."
She asked with concern
"I am fine...It's just that I am having. A flu...it's nothing.."
"O okay let me know if you need something. And Sir is in the drawing room he asked you to serve his tea there "
"Okay.."
With this she was gone
I poured the tea into the golden lined teacups and placed them in the tray
My hands were still shaking a bit and I closed my eyes to relax myself before I face them again.
With a strong grip on the handles I lifted the tray.
I made my way towards the drawing room and as I came near I could hear their conversation clearly
"I told you I am feeling alright Alessandro don't worry"
I looked up to see them sitting next to each other staring into each others eyes.
Their hands intertwined and smiles evident .
"Are you keeping your promise to me "
She asked and I wondered what this promise was
As I made my way towards them with each step I took my anxiety worsened.
"Yes Andrea I am keeping it..I haven't..."
He stopped when he heard the clattering if the teacups my shaking hands were making.
I looked down to show respect and to try to stop my anxiety but it was making my situation worse.
The silence in the hall was interrupted by the irritating sound of these tea cups and I felt both their eyes on me
Please don't look
Please don't look
I was pleading in my mind
As I approached them and his strong cologne entered my sensors my anxiety went to next level
I had a full anxiety attack
Black dots entered my vision and I felt light headed
I tried to shake the hazy images but it resulted me loosing my balance and the teacups having burning hot tea slipped from the tray.
I tried to process what was happening
The hot tea was going to land straight on miss Andrea
I acted fast trying to break the fall
My hand broke the fall and it resulted in the cup hitting my hand and then breaking down into numerous tiny pieces on the ground.
Miss Andrea shrieked with pain as some of the burning tea drops landed on her.
Andro sat up worried and pushed me out of the way to look at Andrea's injury.
My hand was numb just like my mind
But I didn't cared
My thoughts were pre occupied with the view in front of me
Andro was scanning her injuries very carefully and his eyes held so much worry.
"Are you alright....O My god...it looks bad.... Maria...Maria bring the first Aid box ..hurry........"
Her beautiful dress was now stained and her hand had a small red mark
"It's burning .....aaahhhh.....it will be fine.... don't worry ...I am fine.."
her voice came out shaky
"Oh my ...Miss Andrea apply this coolant on it...here..."
Maria said rushing with ice packs and creams
I didn't even looked down to see my own hand as my eyes were fixed on the amount of pain I caused her.
Stupid!
Stupid!
How can I be so stupid!
I burned the daughter of a millionaire
Her family will sue me
I was cursing myself in my mind when Andro turned around to look at me
"How dare you!!"
His voice held so much anger that I felt like crying
His stare made me step back with fear scared of what he will do
"You clumsy woman!! Keep those disgusting hands of your steady or go die somewhere!! How dare you hurt her!! Do you even know who she is!!"
"Alessandro..stop..it's alright.."
Andrea pleaded from behind but he continued to use the words which were breaking me piece by piece
"Lowlifes like you don't even deserve to step into a place like this bit we were generous to offer you this job....but you being a ungrateful brat couldn't do one thing right.......Hell you can't even walk properly how come you were hired for this job!!"
Endless tears were flowing down my cheeks as he continued to reprimand me
"Alessandro..Please...stop"
"No Andrea I will not stop. Can’t you see what she did.....You are too innocent and generous... you don't know girls like her.....they envy you and when they can't compete against you they engage in these dirty tactics .....bloody disgusting people...."
I looked up into his eyes ....my eyes asking him if this was what he thought of me...
I was never this low...
How could he even think I did this deliberately!
"Oh my god...your hand..."
Andrea said looking at my hand
Everyone looked at my hands and had a shocked look
I looked down to see my entire hand turned red with blisters everywhere.
I felt numb earlier but now as I saw my wound I started feeling the suppressed pain I was feeling
My teardrops were not just because of his words but also from the pain of this burn
Andrea rushed towards me with a worried look at her face
"Maria..bring ..the coolant hurry. We need to call the doctor.."
She was something else
So pure and caring
My eyes lifted to see Ando
He had a expression I couldn't decipher
His eyes were fixed on my burn but I couldn't tell if he was worried or not.
But soon that expression was gone as he turned around and left.
I looked at his retreating back wondering since when did he become so heartless.
---------------------------------------------------
"Take these medicine for 1 week and the inflammation will be gone. But these marks will remain...."
The doctor said looking sadly at me but I didn't cared.
These scars were nothing compared to the scars on my soul.
Andrea was still sitting with me talking to the doctor
"I am really sorry ma'am"
I said referring to the burn on her hand
"It's alright they will heal but yours may not.....I will get you a special scars medicine ..it definitely works...don't worry they will vanish with time'
She said with a assuring smile
"If it weren't for you my entire thighs and hands may have burned ....thank you ....."
"Sapphire "
I said and she smiles
"If it weren't for me this entire accident wouldn't have happened....Madam Andrea this was all my fault ..you should scold me instead of thanking me.."
"Sapphire mistakes happen all the time ,we should learn to accept forgive and move forward in life....life is too short to worry about them even for 5 minutes when you definitely won't remember them in 5 years"
Her words had so much meaning and reality that I felt blessed to be in her presence.
She was truly what Andro said about her
She was truly all that I could never be
She was a replacement which was original while I was actual which was a replica.
Once she left wishing me fast recovery,
I picked up my diary and entered another entry into like many others
28th may,2018
Dear diary,
I write with a burned hand and a scarred soul,
All those events my eyes behold
She is meant to be his I know this for sure
But my heart can't stop loving him more and more.
She said moving on is life
But how can I when my mind is stuck on that night of 29th
Love is a disease I heard people say many times
And now when it stuck me I realized they couldn't have been more right.

lost loveFlashback"How dare you break these cups!! I will cut your entire pay!""No ma'am please!!I am really sorry. It won't happen again...please I need this money..."The lady with specs looked at me with a disgusted face"Then go to the guest and ask for his forgiveness, if he forgives you then I will as well.."I turned around and looked at the handsome man who was standing at his seat and wiping the coffee stain on his white shirt.O man I an damned today I thought.I dried the sweat on my palms on the apron of my dress and made my way towards him.He was surrounded by his associates who kept shouting that how ill mannered the waitress was and how she destroyed his thousand dollar shirt.As they saw me approaching their accusing fingers pointed towards me"Hey you!! Where did you ran off to!
The partyA grand party was being organisedInfluential and powerful guests were invitedThe already clean castle was being cleaned to eliminate every single dust particle.And everyone around was busy making everything perfect for the perfect night"Saph !! What are you doing standing here!! Go and fetch miss Andrea ...ask her to check everything. Also help her to get ready!! Go!"Maria ordered with a stern look"...sure..ma’am right away.."I reached Andro and Andreas room and debated if I should knockI didn't wanted to disturb them...I raised my hand to knock when the door swung open revealing a shirtless Alessandro standing in front of me.His set of perfect abs distracted me and instead of looking at him I bowed down my head"..I......I......."My stuttering started again but before I
He knowsAlessandro's p.o.vSapphire BrownWhen I hear her name the first feeling I feel is betrayal....Betrayal for playing with my heart like a child plays with a toy.Betrayal for pretending to be the girl I would fall for and not what she was.Betrayal for saying that she loved me when she only loved my money.I still remember that day like it was yesterdayThe day our paths crossed and got tangled.Flashback 3 years back........'Bon appetit'A simple cafe with a simple nameWith wonderful food and serviceIt was located in the heart of the city with business skyscrapers all around it.I was having a simple meeting with my associates when a girl came with our orderShe looked down minding her own business like we were minding oursBut soon our businesses interfered as her hands s
I just can't live without you2 years backA girl sat on the bathroom floor with blood flowing through the glass shards on her palmsStaring at the wall where the broken mirror showed her crooked reflection.UglyUnfaithfulBetrayerDeceiverWere the words floating her mind as she sat numb under the pressure of her own thoughts and accusations.With no one to ask her if she was fine and no one to take her out of her misery she stayed there till the light outside changed to darkness.Only when the lawyers phone ringed next to her did she woke up from her state and looked around.The white tiles were coloured in red blood and pieces of glass were all scattered around.Balancing herself up she reached the phone and accepted the call with bloody and shaking fingers."He...llo."Came her weak voice"Hello
Petty tasks enormous pressureFew weeks laterI was back to normal nowAndro not even once came to visit me and I somewhere in my heart did felt bad.But again who was I to expect when I don't even deserve him.Today I resumed my work and the first duty was to clean his bedroom.I was aware that Andrea and him were sharing the room since last one month but my heart was not ready to accept that they were sleeping together.As I knocked and opened the door the sight that welcomed me opened my eyes into reality.Both of them were sleeping peacefully ..Andrea's head was resting on his chest while his arm engulfed her waist.They were cuddling together and involuntarily a memory flashed in my mind that made me take a step back...Flashback"Stay" He spoke a single word but his eyes conveyed millions
Inferno of emotionsHis heart was brokenCracked into two by events of pastWhere the other part was hidden by him somewhere where it could never be found again.She knew his heart like her ownAs once they beated as a whole.She was going to mend his broken heart.Even if she had to break her own heart into two,Just to complete the jigsaw of his heart's missing part.Even if after it her heart would be sacrificed but stillknowing that his heart was complete she will be satisfied....................................................................Walking down the streets alone with your phone battery dead, at 11 o clock at night. Through a deserted street with sounds of cats meowing and stray dogs growling is an indication of a bad omen.Unless an angel comes and removes the albatross from around your neck.
Hate PersonifiedI know he hates me now...But to this extent....I could have never imagined....Yesterday I was fired from my jobLast night my clothes were literally thrown out of his mansion..And today I was refused each and every job I interviewed for....They simply rejected me with one line"You shouldn't have messed with such a powerful person"Sitting on a bench with my suitcase at my feetA sub in my handAnd few bucks in my pocket was ISapphire brown drowning in my tears.The teardrops were reaching my lips as I took another bite.They made my food salty but that was my least concern.I was hopeless.

Mission to devils caveA heartbreak is not the end of this worldBut deception is.A rejection can only hurt youBut a betrayal kills you.But you can still surviveYou can survive if you freeze your heart and lock your emotionsYou can survive in the shell of a person you once were.And today I just happened to realise how strong of a shell Andro had build around him.As I came out of the bathroom fully soaked in water and back in my senses I was met with his presence.Sitting on the sofa ,scrolling down his phone."1 month"He spoke without looking at me"1 month you have to leave this town and never come back..all your needs will be provided with. You could find a decent job and live your own life without messing with mine...best for both of us"He got up to leave but I will not accept my
