AUTHOR’S POV
When Sara noticed Silas finally walking toward her, she sighed out in relief. For a moment, she thought he was going to leave her like this.
She guessed, she was wrong about him once again. Nothing new, anyway.
Silas kept walking until he was standing by her head. Sara craned her neck back to look at his face but the pouring rain was not letting her keep her eyes open when she looked up.
“ I hate rain… ” Sara mumbled under her breath, her voice disappearing behind the loud pitter – patter of rain.
“ What’s your problem now? ” Silas pursed his lips, his eyes narrowing down to glare at her.
She looked weird like this. Her clothes were soaked just like her body and hair that were sticking to her face.
Silas refrained from looking at her for more than a moment. It was always dangerous looking at her.
Earlier, Grandfather Albert tricked him into meeting h
AUTHOR’S POVSara leaned in and smashed her lips against Silas’s thick one’s. His eyes went wide at another unexpected gesture.When she rested her right hand against his cheek, he sighed out and gave in. It was Sara. He could never resist her or push her away. It was impossible.His hands shot up to hold her waist as she stumbled forward. Her lips moved against his at a steady pace.Sara did her best to pour all her desperate emotions in the slow kiss but she knew it was not enough. It was never enough.They needed communication.But, she didn’t know what to say to him either so she just sufficed with deepening the kiss for the time being. She could just hope Silas didn’t push her away.Silas pulled Sara closer instead of pushing her away and tilted his head to kiss her deeply. His teeth grazed her lower lip before he soothed her lips with his tongue.Sara moaned out feeling the w
AUTHOR’S POVTaking a bath hurriedly, Sara wore her Night suit and sprinted down the corridor to reach his room. She turned the doorknob but it didn’t open.“ Ungrateful Bitch locked the door! ” She hissed to herself and smiled creepily.Climbing down the stairs, she got the spare keys from the kitchen drawer and came back up. Inserting the right key, she unlocked the door and turned the door knob, pushing it open.Humph! Her smile widened. She stepped inside the dark room and closed the door instantly.Running to the bed, she plopped down on it when a yelp sounded from underneath her.“ Oops! Sorry. I thought you sleep on the left side! ” Sara snickered and rolled away from him to lay on the empty side.“ You did it deliberately. ” Silas accused, pushing the duvet away from his face.Sara held her laugh back because she knew he was right this time. This was the p
AUTHOR'S POV“ Marry me! ” Sara had said this to him out of nowhere as they both sat side by side on the two swings.The kid with light brown eyes had choked out on his breath. “ Why? ”“ Because you are my first and last friend. I will wait for you to grow up, I will wait for you to come and marry me. ” Sara had explained to him and he had promised to come to marry her when he got old enough to marry someone.They both promised to never leave each other but when Sara’s mother died such an unfortunate death, she lost every good memory with everyone. She still remembered him though. For a little while, she remembered him, but by the time she went to meet him again, he was gone from the orphanage.Where did he go? She had asked this to everyone but no one knew. He just disappeared and she didn’t even know his name. This filled her up with more hate. People always lied and their promises
AUTHOR’S POV“ I think I love you for no apparent reason. ” Sara whispered to Silas who was still feeling dumbfounded.He wondered if he had started hearing things. He was in the phase of shock which passed quickly and he entered the phase of denial in a mere moment.Sara blinked her eyes rapidly, the realization dawning upon her. She said that out aloud, right? She flinched internally and her cheeks started to heat up.“ What? ” Silas sat up, his eyes fixed at her red face.“ I mean… I mean I think I love you but I don’t know what loving someone feels like so I am not sure if I love you or not. I am not sure if it is really love or not. ” Sara didn’t know what she was talking about anymore. Her heartbeat was drumming in her ears, sweat beginning to coat her nape.Silas’s eyebrows pulled together to form a frown. What was she trying to say? He was having a ha

AUTHOR’S POVIt was the dumbest thought she could ever have. Sara thought and decided to confirm if it was really Albert Alexander or not.She opened up her mouth but the old man with an awfully familiar voice, didn’t give her any chance to speak.“ Is Sara around? Don’t tell me you still haven’t told her… ” He sighed exaggeratedly and Sara’s blood froze in her veins.“ Tell her about yourself soon. You can’t keep this up. ” He advised, thinking of her as Silas and hanged up on the call.Sara pushed the phone away from her ear and stared at the screen for a good minute, before silently placing it down on the side table.This was not really true and he was not hiding anything. Must be a wrong call, she lied to herself, trying not to panic or feel hurt.She was in a phase of denial. She trusted him so much that she didn’t want to believe there coul
AUTHOR’S POVLast day had been beautiful. She confessed to Silas and he did too.For a moment, Sara forgot about everything but the logic and facts forced her to think about everything again.The voice definitely belonged to Albert Alexander and what he said was…Terrifying for Sara.She had to confirm things so she asked her private detective to run a background check on Silas again.
