Narrator’s POV—
They all saw the only very old picture of Philip which was not quite recognizable though all three of them recognised him clearly! Not only that, his cruel and dirty face stirred a lot of nostalgia and sadness!
“For us it is easy but I don’t think it will be that easy for someone who has just seen his picture! That too this kind of black and white old picture!” Adrian said.
“It is true. And I don’t think that we should think too much about it now. Anyways, he can be anywhere and anyone! I mean you two are born with the same features but look at me! You guys never would have known about me if I didn’t tell you! God knows how Philip looks! And if by chance Mrs Murdock has really seen him, then it is clear that whenever we come across a person even vaguely similar to him, we should be cautious! That’s all we can do!” Sebastian said.
“Yeah….but still seeing
Narrator’s POV—“Daddy! I have never been on an aeroplane! It was so big! We all were flying and then Zooooommm!! And I was feeling tikles………”“Oh yeah?”“Yes! In my stomach! Here……when the plane was moving up”Emily smiled looking at Adrian who walked in front holding Arian in his arms towards the exit. She was behind them. Coming back to Odessa after more than three years now was a very big decision for her! She has many good memories of Odessa. It is the place where she has found Adrian, her lover from her past life! Also it is the place where she has conceived Arian!But at the same time most of the worst memories were also those which she has faced here! The way Adrian treated her when she first arrived in Odessa and then the way he pretended to remember their shared past and love her for months only to throw her out after humiliating her! Even tho
Six months have passed and finally it was a similar night when all the family members were having a fun weekend together. Sebastian and Edith have also joined them! They were engaged now! Adrian clinked his champagne flute with a spoon drawing everyone’s attention as they sat in front of the Cottage in the woods enjoying a nice picnic. “Okay everyone, attention please! Though it has become quite normal for us to have fun on many weekends like this, yet today’s dinner is special because I have a special announcement to make! Emily’s jaws dropped hearing Adrian and she was a blushing mess! Edith who has become close friend to Emily noticed her blushing face and whispered, “Why are you so red?? What’s going on?” “I…” “So, I would like to share a good news with you all and that is……” Adrian looked teasingly at Emily and his heart skipped a few beats seeing her blushing face! “I am ….going to be…a father again!! Emily my beautiful wi
Prologue—“Please don’t do this! Don’t ruin my reputation like this! Delete the picture…” Red with shame I cover my body with my hands and almost beg him.“If you don’t want this to go viral, submit to me and do as I say! Don’t worry doll, I have no interest in you but nobody dares to do what you did! I can’t let a poor beggar girl spoil my image! Can I?” Adrian William Ford, the rich but spoiled jerk of a boy said shooting a disgusted look at me!“Now, now..tell me what will you do? With one single tap on my mobile, this picture of your sexy boo*s will go viral, will be on every mobile, for show!” while holding his mobile on left hand and with his right hand finger pointed on the sc
Me and my mom reach the New Castle airport and decide to have a cup of coffee while waiting for the car which is supposed to pick us up from here and take us to Odessa, but is running a bit late. We step into a coffee shop and take a small corner seat.“Mom! I will go and get our coffee. Do you want to eat anything?” I ask my mom seeing her looking nervously at the prices.My mom is very smart and hardworking and it is only because of her day in and day out hardwork, in a small designer boutique that I could study in a good school till now! She saves every penny she can and we have always lived life, calculating every cent we spend and every cent we save! That is how life has been after my father died when I was only a little girl leaving not much for us!“Mom!” I squeeze her hand seeing her calculating h
Emily’s POV—My first day in the new place had a bad start spoiling my mood a bit. Not only my mood but my dress as well! I am not only angry on the spoiled d*ck for behaving like he owns the entire place but also because I didn’t do anything about it! I should have told him off!I am usually quiet and I like to stay away from trouble but I am not weak! I never was! If someone behaves oddly, I don’t hesitate to respond appropriately but just half an hour back in the café, I was humiliated by that jerk but I stood still like a statue!I release the breath I was holding without even knowing, still feeling irritated and disturbed by the memories of that recent incident as I sit in the car along with my mom.
Narrator’s POV—A week passed and Emily and her mom Sella Miller have settled down in Odessa. Sella has even joined a local boutique as a cashier. Emily has been having these dreams which have only got more and more vivid! She thought many times to wander in the woods but thinking of what unknown dangers might be hiding out there for her, she refrained from doing so, until this Saturday morning----“Emily! Get your things packed for Monday. Your text books, stationaries, dress…whatever you will need on Monday!” Sella chirps happily while eating breakfast with Emily.“I have already set my dresses aside Mom! Don’t worry!” Emily replies taking her eyes off the newspaper. She is looking for a part time job of a waitress or baby sitter. She has been working in New Work as a private tu
Narrator’s POV—“Hey Mom! I got the job!” Emily couldn’t wait till she reaches home and calls her mom while driving back.“That is really great Emily! I am so proud of you dear!” Mrs Sella Miller says with tearful eyes! She really is so proud of Emily! “I will make some pancakes for you for lunch Emily!”“Thanks Mom! I will be back soon!” Emily happily ends the call as she drives her car through the meandering narrow path, running like a snake through the woods. The road is empty in the afternoon and Emily without worrying about the road enjoys the cold weather, the green and brown leaves of the tall trees that bordered the road and the simple serenity.She is lost in her own thoughts. After thinking about how she will buy a new dress for her mother and make a good turke
Narrator’s POV—Rest of the day passes quickly and Emily spends most of her time lying in her bed, pondering about the memories. She had a shocking revelation and has been able to solve the mystery of the dreams, flashes and memories! Only a few pieces of the puzzle were left to be solved but one thing she was sure about. Her eventual shifting to the new town Odessa was definitely a call of destiny!Sunday morning Emily wakes up early and quickly gets dress after her morning routines! She is happy today because her best friend Linda is supposed to reach by afternoon.“Emi! Will you go to the market and get some meat and groceries? I want to cook something good for Linda and you!” Sella says while placing a piece of egg on Emily’s plate. She ruffles Emily’s hair and smiling kindly she says in a soft voice, “I am happy that we both shall join work from tomorrow and my girl will be able to have proper meals fr
