AUTHOR’S POV
Taking 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 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

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.
