Amelia. Amelia…Damon kept calling with a low voice, unlike the Damon Amelia knew. He was standing at a distance, contemplating whether to go closer or stay at the distance. Amelia, on the other hand, was just tearing up while laying helplessly on the bed. Saying that her face was pale would just be an understatement. She's lost her glamour to the expression on her face. I can't say whether it's because of things happening to her or anything else, but she looked so unkempt. Just a glance at her would reveal that she yearns to be pitied. “Amelia, I caused it, but I'm sorry.”Damon apologized, but Amelia couldn't mutter a word.“Keep your distance!” She managed to order with a cracked voice when she saw Damon coming to her. Even as she made the statement, tears were still rolling down her chin. She used her hand to clean the tear as she continued to control the runny nose.“I'm not here to harm you. I won't inflict any pain on you”.“What else can you do that I will consider worse than
The moon shone so bright that all the earth's lies had their shadow cast just beside them. It was too bright that one could count the number of trees that grew by the roadside. The gentle breeze of Italy kept the trees dancing to the drumbeat of nature as they created hissing sounds rhythmically. A car headlight could be seen as it was approaching at high speed. The car speed was beyond normal and the roadway noise was too loud. Just in a twinkle of an eye, the car passed across, revealing Damon as he was alone in the car. His destinations were traced as he passed through a wide gate and halted in a well-decorated compound. The guards were greeting him as he came out of his car, but he cared not to return the greetings, rather he hurried into the mansion that was right before him. Considering the look on his face, one could easily spot that there's danger.“Here you are, my son. You're welcome”Said an old that was sitting comfortably on a sofa kept on the pavement as he saw Damon app
While Amelia had checked whether anyone was looking in her direction, she turned her head to see if she would take some of her clothes and leave the room, but her focus caught CCTV cameras fixed just at the end of every partition of the compartment.Ugh!!!!She exclaimed while expressing how disappointed she was. In a few seconds, she went mute. “Even though I escaped from this building, where do I know? Who do I know? Where will I run to? How am I sure I would survive this move? All these cameras are fixed here just to monitor me…”Many rhetorical questions kept popping up in her memory. No one to answer anyone. She shook her head and then skidded down gradually until she was seated on the bare ground since she was leaning on the wall. In a few seconds, after many deliberations, she sighed and let out a deep breath from her nostrils. “Even if I don't make it to escape here, may I have a look at the way things are going on in this building? I'm already spending eternity here without
“Mum, what do you think about Damon and this sudden change of mind? I'm dying inside of me.”Danciana muttered as she could be seen sitting next to her in a car. She muttered her words in a way that hearers would know that she's been nursing grievances in her. The woman grabbed her by the shoulder and drew her closer to herself. Danciana wasted no time before she leaned her head on her mother's side.“My daughter, nothing changed. And nothing will change. He's yours. You know, whenever they think they've grown wings, they behave as they want. But for some reason, his family won't allow him to stick to that plan. I even see it as though he is joking. I have my part to play.” Danciana's mother replied while trying to put on a cheerful face to make her daughter feel better.“Mum, you think so?” Danciana queried while sounding better.“Worry not yourself, my Princess. Things will be fine. Let's focus on the business of today. Remember, we are going to the supermarket for our shopping. You
Damon cared not whether he was respected or not. He moved a step to meet with Amelia, but it seemed he was swimming against the ocean current. He paused for a moment, but couldn't just take his eyes off Amelia's direction. “Amelia, I want to see you in my office now”. He ordered as Amelia cared not to acknowledge his presence any longer. She lifted her face and threw an embarrassing look at Damon. Since Damon already made his command, he threw his face in another direction and couldn't see Amelia when she was using her eyes in place of a weapon.“ You heard me right?”He growled as he turned to look at Amelia. Their eyes cut each other. Amelia nodded her head in acceptance but continued washing her clothes instantly.Damon turned and left the room gently. As Damon got into his office, he was elated that he made it visible on his face. He kept smiling and smiling, not minding that he was alone. He sat gently on his seat and picked a remote control. With it, he turned on a wide-screen
Since Damon began to use those uncongenial words on Amelia, she felt like the ground should just open and swallow her. But that was not happening.“Please, can I go?”Amelia pleaded because she's known that Damon wants to ruin her day.She reiterated her pleas twice more, but Damon didn't reply to her. She began to look for faults in her dressing again. Gradually, tears began to form in her eyes. She waited for Damon's response, but that wasn't coming. Instead, Damon focused strictly on the book he was reading. Turning from one page to the other as though he weren't reading but checking something, with immense seriousness written all over his face.“Who told you to sit?”Damon screamed as he saw Amelia slowly perching on the chair since she was tired of standing. Hot tears dropped from Amelia's eyes as she hurriedly stood up in response to Damon's command. 'If I'm supposed to die here, my prudence can't prevent it. If I'm supposed to survive this, my intransigence can't prevent it.S
“Hey, dad. What's up?”Damon asked as he swiped on his phone screen while driving home.“I want you to be heard tonight. We get important things to discuss”.Her father's voice was heard as they conversed via phone call.“Dad, is that urgent?”Damon asked while acting confusedly.“Is that a promise that you'll be here at the right time?”Mister Floyd muttered while stylishly running his tone to express his words.“Sir, I would like to postpone the meeting to tomorrow, I have to prepare my luggage. I want to, I'm back on a business trip.”Damon petitioned to make his voice sound more innocent.“Spare the excuse, boy! May I not wait a minute before you come? I'm waiting”.Mister Floyd concluded from his end.“So be it, dad”Damon replied angrily and ended the call.He turned his wrist and took a glance at his golden wristwatch that was tailored to fit his wrist. Then it revealed that he was a bit hairy and his veins visible. Maybe because of the way we held the car steering, but his vein
Wow! You're welcome, Ma'am, Rawn.”Damon's father spoke up as he met Danciana's mother and his guard in his sitting room. “Thank you, Mister Floyd.”Ma'am Rawn muttered while avoiding anything that would expose her dentition. The guard was calmly observing the environment.“What do I owe for this unannounced visit?”Mr. Floyd questioned her jokingly. As he sat on the chair at the center of the room, it would take only an observant person to notice that the hand he raised was an invitation to his guard. The guard didn't hesitate to obey his command. He stylishly walked towards his boss and stood by him.On hearing the question, ma'am Rawn snickered and continued…“A Friend owes a friend nothing for a visit. Besides, I didn't expect to be offered anything while coming.”Ma'am Rawn asserted, while her body language spoke differently from what her smile expressed. Mister Floyd turned towards the exit and threw an inexpressible look at the guard at the door. Immediately he left the door a
