Ring... Ring...
My phone rang.
I smiled to see who was calling and answered.
"Hello!!! Rosy!!!" I said smiling.
"Happy anniversary!!!!!" Rosy and Eric said together.
"Thank you so much!!!"I said smiling brightly.
Just then Barry came into the room.
"So, where are the love birds this time to celebrate their silver jubilee?" she asked.
"In a forest." I said making a face and looked at Barry.
"What??? In a forest???" she asked shocked.
I was about to reply when Barry took my phone from my hand and said into the phone, "Rosy, let us celebrate our special day. Bye."
He hangs up the call and looked at me.
I looked away.
"Let's go. I have something to show you." he said and stretched his hand to me smiling.
I sighed and took his hand and got up from our bed to stand on my feet.
When we came out of the main door, he li
I am standing on the bridge looking at the cold waters below. The water seems to be calling me. It's time to pay for all the mistakes I have made this past year. I have to end all the pain that's in my heart. I was about to jump when I heard someone say; "Hey! What are you doing? Thinking of jumping? Ending your precious life?" I turned to my left and saw a handsome guy of around my age standing ten steps away from me. He too was looking at the waters below. Why is he here? I was curious so I asked him, "Why do you want to know? Are you planning to jump too?" He turned to face me. It was dark there but I can still see his handsome face. For some reason, he looked shocked and surprised. I waited for him to reply but he just stared at me. So I said, "Yes, I am going to jump but what are you doing here?" At last, he composed himself and replied, "No, I'm not
Barry's POV It was a usual day for me. I had nothing to do. This is common when you have lived for 100 years or just alive. So, I decided to take a tour of the city which is my usual habit at night. So, I started running enjoying the cold night wind on my face. I am Barry. A hundred-year-old vampire with super speed, super eyesight, super hearing, and whatnot. Being a vampire gives you so many powers...superpowers. I see a girl standing on the bridge looking down; maybe she is planning to jump. I can pass my time today by talking to her. I will help her if I can and if she doesn't want my help then she can do whatever she wants, who am I to stop her? I went near her and stood a few steps away from her and looking at the waters below. I asked her, "Hey! What are you doing here? Thinking of jumping? Ending your precious life? " I saw from the corner of my
Jane's POV: I was staring at him. He looked concerned. Now, I noticed how handsome he is. His handsome face was breathtaking and his blue eyes were concerned; but why? And how did he save me? I was wrapped in his arms. I shook all the thoughts away and pushed him hard. He let me go. I shouted at him, "You saved me, how dare you? Didn't I tell you to leave! I am not the one you knew yet you interfered in my plan to die. I am not her, I am Jane! Jane Macarove! Do you understand that I failed in my attempt to end my life just because of you? Do you know how much courage it takes for someone to decide and try to end their life? I don't want to see you ever again in my whole life! " He looked hurt and tried to say something but I stopped him, turned around and ran. I ran as fast as I could let my tears fall freely. When I couldn't run anymore, I started walking slowly. I saw a bar
Barry's POV : I was waiting for her to answer, concerned but she did keep staring at me. Then suddenly she tried to push me so, I let her go. She shouted at me angrily, "You saved me, how dare you? Didn't I tell you to leave! I am not the one you knew yet you interfered in my plan to die. I am Jane! Jane Macarove! Do you know I failed in my attempt to end my life just because of you? Do you know how much courage it takes for someone to decide and try to end their life? I don't want to see you ever again in my whole life!" Then she turned around and ran away. I was hurt not because of her words but because she was hurt. But, why? Why does it concern me this much? Why does it hurt to see her hurt? I never felt like this not even for Rosy. I hardly know her and her sadness concerns me this much, why? I want these answers and the answers for the questions she refused to tell me.
I woke up to find myself in my bed. But, how did I get here? I was drinking at the bar. Was that all a dream? But my head is hurting like hell. I check my hand, it's scratched. So, it was real. But how did I get here? Maybe I am not a bad drinker and I managed to come back home by myself. Mark must have lied to me; he had always lied to me. I suddenly remembered that he saved me, that stupid guy. I really don't wanna see his face ever again. I got up from my bed angrily and shook my head to clear my mind. I shouldn't think about him, anyway I won't meet him again. And now I should get ready I have a job. But before that, I have something to do. I took out all the pics of Mark tore them and burned them. I also deleted all his pics from my phone. I don't want him or his photos or his memories in my life. I sighed and closed my eyes for some time. Then I went to take a quick shower and got dressed. I'm not hungry so I
"Jane! Jane!" Emma and Lily came running to me when I reached the restaurant. "What happened?" I asked tensely."Someone bought the restaurant and our new owner will be coming any minute!"Lily said tensed."What if he changes the staff? I don't want us to separate."Emma said with tears in her eyes."Emma, nothing like that is going to happen. Trust me we will work here or anywhere else but together." I said hugging her.Lily hugged us both.I was tensed too but I don't want to think anything negative. Everyone was here and they were all tensed.Just then a guy in a black suit came in. He was handsome with black hair, brown eyes, and a handsome face. He scanned the restaurant thoroughly and then cleared his throat and said, "Excuse me, I am John. I want all the staff to assemble here and stand in a line. Sir is going to be here in few minutes."We all stood side by side in a line. John was at t
Barry's POV :I bought the restaurant where she works and the bar where she drinks, to be close to her.I know she is angry that I bought the restaurant and on top of that I made her my personal cook and waitress. But, I want her to be near me and this was the only way.I asked her friends, Emma and Lily about her past life. They first hesitated to tell me anything but when I told them that I have to know this so that I can understand her more and get involved in her life, they told me about her past.They told me that, she is the daughter of a big businessman and a year ago she met a guy who was a waiter and she fell in love with him but her father came to know about this six months ago and he disapproved of him. So, she left her home and everything for him and called him to tell him that she left everything and will live with him but when she went to him, he was not there and his p
Ring... Ring...My phone rang when I was about to enter my kitchen.I was surprised, as no one calls me this early in the morning. I went to check my phone. It's an unknown number. Who can it be?I picked up the call, "Hello?""Bring coffee to my room." a familiar voice said."What? Who is this?"I asked surprised."You didn't recognize my voice?" he said shocked, sighed, and continued, "It's me, Barry. Your boss. Bring coffee."Now he wants me to bring his coffeeto his house and how did he get my number in the first place. He really is a stalker! This is the limit!!"You are my boss only in the restaurant so, wait until my shift starts. I'm not gonna deliver the coffee to your home."I said irritated."Ok. But you can bring coffee for your new landlord, right? " he asked.New landlord?!! What is he talking about? He didn't...
