Elona's POV

As I continued to sit while my dad had seen Mr Crane out. I was feeling defeated and upset. My eyes caught my book, I leaned forward and brought it closer to me. He had very neat handwriting. One that I would keep and treasure forever. I started to read what he had written.

Love Beyond Reach

In the depth of human emotions, there exists a facet that ignites the soul with a fire that defies reason and logic. It is the intoxicating, heart-wrenching, and utterly captivating experience of falling for someone you cannot have. Such a forbidden love transcends societal norms and boundaries, leaving you in a whirlwind of intense emotions that threaten to consume your very essence.

A chance encounter, a stolen glance, and a heart that betrays all reason. The story begins innocently enough, a narrative spun by the impulse of fate. Two souls, entwined by destiny, yet bound by the shackles of circumstance. It is in this complexity that the true essence of forbidden love takes root.

The object of your affection, the one who fuels the fire within you, is tantalizingly out of reach. Perhaps they belong to another, already committed to a love that predates your entrance into their life. Or maybe, their heart harbors secrets they dare not reveal, unless the world crumbles around them. In either case, you find yourself at the mercy of an unrelenting desire that gnaws at your very core.

Every stolen moment, every fleeting touch becomes a treasure, cherished and hoarded away in the depths of your soul. You walk a tightrope, teetering on the edge of self-control, struggling to keep your emotions in check. The simplest gestures from them, a smile, a word, a casual touch that sends ripples through your heart, threatening to drown you in a sea of longing.

The agony of forbidden love is etched into every fiber of your being. It is a constant battle between heart and mind, desire and morality. You question the righteousness of your feelings, tormented by the knowledge that pursuing this love could cause immeasurable pain to those around you. Yet, you are powerless to resist the gravitational pull of your emotions.

As the days turn into weeks and months, you find yourself entangled in a web of secret meetings and whispered confessions. The thrill of the forbidden intensifies your passion, like a drug that both poisons and exhilarates. Each stolen kiss, each secret rendezvous, is a testament to the depths of your love and the lengths to which you are willing to go to be with them.

But there is a price to pay for such love. It is a price measured in stolen moments, hidden tears, and shattered dreams. It is a love that exists in the shadows, forever denied the light of day. And as the world outside continues to spin, your love remains a silent, pulsating ache in the recesses of your heart.

In the end, the forbidden love you cannot have becomes a haunting melody, a bittersweet symphony that plays endlessly in your soul. It is a reminder that some loves are destined to remain unfulfilled, that the heart can be a cruel master, demanding that which it cannot possess.

And so, you are left with a choice. Do you continue to dance on the brink of forbidden love, risking everything for a chance at happiness? Or do you summon the strength to let go, to release the object of your affection, and find solace in the knowledge that, in love, sometimes the most profound acts of courage come from walking away?

In the end, it is a choice that only you can make, a decision that will shape the course of your life and define the depth of your character. But one thing is certain, the memory of that forbidden love, the intensity of the emotions it stirred within you, will linger in your heart, a touching reminder of the power of love, even in its most forbidden form.

I leaned against the back of the chair as I let out a breath, my feelings heightened by this essay that he had written. Was that meant for us? Me? I wanted to know but I think that I would just not make a fool of myself again, so I will keep a distance.

"How was the tutor session?" My dad asked as he entered the kitchen. I closed my book so that my dad wouldn't see it, although he wouldn't know anything. I had to make sure that my original essay was destroyed.

"It was okay, he helped me where I was stuck and this is for a competition. I do think that Cris has a better essay, she wrote about her mom," I said as I looked over to my dad. He was standing behind the kitchen counter and sipping his coffee.

"That must have been difficult for her to write. They were a very close-knit family. I do hope to see that Tristan has someone in his life. I am taking him to the bar tomorrow evening just to catch up. I think we both need it. Who knows, maybe he will run into someone," my father smirked. My stomach sank at that.

"How about you?" I asked.

"I'm okay. I live for my work and for you. Maybe some day I will make that move." he shrugged.

"I want to go into modeling," I blurted out.

"Are you sure about that?" he asked.

"Yeah, I have been doing my research and I will be applying. I also need to do a photoshoot so that I have my portfolio," I added.

He chuckled, "I had always thought that you would end up being a model. I never told anyone that. I will support you with whatever you want to do, but not anything that will break my heart," he said.

"Thank you, dad," I smiled.

"I think that Tristan might know about agencies, his company has partners on board with all these kinds of things. But find out by him, he will know."

"I might just do that," I replied, but in actual truth, I won't...I do not want Tristan Crane to know that. "I guess I will go upstairs and go over this essay," I stood up and grabbed my things from the table and then I walked to the stairs.

He is the last person that I would ever tell about my modeling. I won't even ask him about agencies, I can do that all by myself as I have been doing so far. He can see me in magazines or runways when I am there.

  • My Best Friend's Dad   Piano Time

    TristanI changed out of the clothes I had worn to court as soon as I walked into my bedroom. The suit felt like it belonged to someone else now, someone who had spent the morning sitting beneath a judge’s eyes while strangers dissected pieces of my life.I pulled on a pair of dark jeans and a charcoal sweater, shoved my hands through my hair, and stood in front of the bedroom mirror for a moment. I looked tired. My face had the same hard lines it always carried, but there was something behind my eyes that hadn’t been there before. I looked like a man who had been forced to understand that money couldn’t solve everything, influence couldn’t fix everything. Sometimes you could have everything in the world and still be completely powerless. My thoughts went immediately to Elona.Tomorrow Grace would take the stand. And I was going to be there supporting Elona at her appointment too. I didn’t know what scared me more. What Grace might say. Or whatever the doctor would say at the checkup.

  • My Best Friend's Dad   Campaign Planning

    ElonaThe moment I stepped through the glass doors of VFS, the smell of hairspray, coffee, perfume, and fabric hit me. There was something almost comforting about it. The building was always alive in a way that made it difficult to think about anything outside of it, but also difficult to move past the fact that these girls know my life and Tristan…everything around it by now. People moved quickly from one room to another, garment bags hung from racks, assistants carried clipboards, models crossed the polished floor in heels, and somewhere in the background, a hair dryer roared continuously. Usually, I loved it, but today, I needed it. I needed the noise, something ordinary. I needed to pretend for a few hours that my life wasn’t sitting inside a courtroom.“Elona!” I turned around. One of the assistants waved me over.“Morning.”“Morning. You are needed upstairs for measurements.”“Already?” I asked in surprise.She laughed. “Apparently, you’re getting taller.”I smiled faintly. “I’d

  • My Best Friend's Dad   Preps

    TristanThe drive home felt longer than it should have. Reggie didn’t say much and neither did I. The city moved past the windows in a blur of glass, traffic, pedestrians, and afternoon sunlight, but I barely registered any of it. My mind was still inside that courtroom. Grace’s face, Alex’s confidence, and the judge’s voice.By the time Reggie pulled into my driveway, my shoulders were so tense they hurt. He put the car into park but didn’t immediately switch off the engine. “You need to breathe,” he said.“I’m breathing,” I replied.“You’re barely doing it.” I could feel his eyes on me.I looked through the windshield. “I don’t know what the hell we are going to do.” I still didn’t feel like we could win this case.“We are going to prepare.”“For tomorrow?” I asked.“For everything.”I turned towards him. “She takes the stand tomorrow, and she gets to tell them whatever she wants.”“She gets to testify.” He said as a matter of fact.“That’s what I said.” My blood began to boil just

  • My Best Friend's Dad   Finally Prelim Hearing

    TristanThe courthouse smelled like old paper, polished wood, and fear. I didn’t know how else to describe it. Maybe it was because fear had become the only thing I could taste since I walked through those doors. It sat at the back of my throat, bitter and metallic, no matter how many times I swallowed.I sat beside Reggie on one of the hard wooden benches outside the courtroom, my hands clasped between my knees, staring at the closed doors ahead of us. I hadn’t looked across the hallway once. I knew Grace was there. I could feel her presence without seeing her and that was the problem, every part of me wanted to look.I wanted to know whether she was nervous. Whether she was sorry. Whether she was sitting there with the same confidence she had when she first made those accusations. I wanted to see her face and find some indication…anything, that she understood what she had done, but I refused because I knew myself.If I looked at Grace, I wasn’t sure I would be able to keep the disgu

  • My Best Friend's Dad   Quick Visit

    ElonaThe studio had emptied surprisingly quickly. Only the distant sound of hairdryers and voices carried faintly through the hallways now. Stylists were packing away equipment, assistants wheeled garment racks towards storage, and somewhere nearby, someone laughed loudly enough for it to echo through the otherwise quiet floor.I adjusted the strap of my gym bag over my shoulder before reaching down to pick up my water bottle.“Elona.” I looked up. Madame stood near the doorway to her office, one hand resting against the glass frame. “I need a moment.”My stomach tightened instinctively. “Of course.” I followed her into her office. She closed the door behind us.“You may sit.” I lowered myself into one of the chairs opposite her desk.She remained standing for a moment, sorting through several large black portfolios before selecting one. Without saying anything, she placed it in front of me.I frowned. “What is this?”“Open it.” I carefully lifted the cover. Inside were concept sketc

  • My Best Friend's Dad   Flare Ups

    ElonaThe elevator doors slid open onto the fifth floor of VFS, and I stepped out with my gym bag slung over one shoulder. The polished white floors reflected the overhead lights so perfectly that it almost hurt to look at them. Everything inside this building was pristine, perfect, and spotless. Nothing inside me felt the same.My body moved on instinct more than anything else. One foot in front of the other. I smiled when someone looked my way. I kept my shoulders back. I kept my chin level. This was me being a model, surviving on repeat.My phone felt heavier than usual inside my bag.Rowan Patel is dead.No matter how many times I replayed Tristan’s message in my mind, the words refused to settle into something believable. Rowan had been alive two days ago. He had been sitting across the dinner table from us, having dinner while Tristan argued with him. Now he was gone.I swallowed the lump growing in my throat and continued to walk towards the changing rooms. Heels were striking p
