I was sure that I didn’t deserve this. No matter what it is I would never treat them like they treated me now and that made me angry. At that moment, I knew they hated me and the only way I can limit the damage is if I walked away from them, first.
“You know what… never mind.” I stood up wiping my tears vigorously. ‘Stupid tears just don’t know when to stop.’
“I thought we are still friends. Now I understand that we are no more. I wouldn’t disturb you guys anymore.” saying that I exhaled deeply trying to control my emotions.
“Aves…” Jay called me before I step out of the door.
“Stop… Just stop.” I said holding my hand out towards him.
“You were walking away like I wasn’t there kneeling in front of you.” I couldn’t hold it in anymore.
“I loved you both so much. One mistake… that is all it took for you to throw me away. I mean it wasn’t even a mista

You are my FLAME Forever?
In the upcoming weeks, a lot has happened. We were almost at the end of our high school days. I didn’t feel bad about leaving it all behind. Maybe I will miss my grandma and all of our favorite places where we used to hang out. My favorite tree at school, the ice cream parlor, the park, my roof, and the lake, where I went on my first date. I would miss all those places but I was more excited about our future together in London. Jackson’s issue was covered up by his parents like it was nothing. They made some kind of deal with the police and the girl’s parents to draw a veil over it. The parents agreed to it because they didn’t want the entire town to know about the scandal their girls were involved in. That’s the perk of having rich parents. You can do anything and get away with it. But thankfully Mr. Donan refused to graduate Jackson from our school strictly. So he was sent out of the country to continue his studies by his parents. No o
You are my FLAME Bucket list.
“Jay, open the door.” I banged on the front door for the third time, but there was no response. Vian and I showed up at Jay’s house as soon as it was dawn. I had a plan in my mind to take Jay’s mind off of things. Vian didn’t know anything about my plan, and I was planning to keep it that way until its time. “If you don’t open the door in three, I am breaking in. You know I will do.” I sent a warning. I was about to kick the door in frustration due to lack of movements on the other side but the door opened suddenly making me stumble. Thankfully I balanced myself by grabbing Vian who was standing beside me. “What?” I heard Jay’s curt reply standing with an annoying look at the door. “Get ready. We are going somewhere.” I didn’t give him time to say anything and went inside pushing past him. “Not in the mood.” I heard him from the back. ‘Well, too bad. I didn’t come here
You are my FLAME Hints.
It’s been months since I came to London. We successfully graduated passing the final exams with flying colors. I miss old town badly, but I promised my grandma to visit often before I left. London life was very much different from the life I had in my grandma’s town. Even though I have been visiting my mom every summer, staying here, permanently felt different. The city was always busy, and it was hard to keep up. I felt like I was always running. I helped my mom with café work in the morning, and I worked at a pizza shop as a delivery person in the evening. I applied at the University of London for an English literature course and was waiting for a call from the office. It was my mom’s idea to apply to that college. She thought if I go to college in London then she can spend more time with me unlike before. She had this beautiful picture of my future in her mind where I become a professor or a writer, fall in love, and start a family in London. It all sounde
You are my FLAME Jealous.
It was that day I was the most excited in my life. I woke up early that morning to choose what dress I was going to wear and how I was going to style my hair. It took hours for me to choose a perfect dress. I was in a good mood for the whole day. My mom looked at me weirdly when I was whistling while helping her in the kitchen. My brain was firing serotonin all day keeping me high. I was looking at the clock every five minutes expecting it to strike at 4 pm. I told my mom that I was going out with Vian and started getting ready an hour before. I wanted to look beautiful, but I didn’t want to come out like I was trying too much. I decided to go with a simple purple crop top pairing it with high-waisted jeans and white sneakers. I let my hair down styling it with light end curls. I kept my makeup minimum but concentrating more on my eyes. I used eyeliner and mascara to make my eyes lookout. Vian used to say that my e

At midday, customers coming to the café had reduced rendering me to be bored. I was feeling lazy and irritated the whole day. My mood was oddly off, and I just wanted to sleep in all day. Willie and Damon came to be with us taking a day off. Damon was so happy that his dad let him bunk school, and he was so excited to play games with me all day. But I couldn’t keep up with him for more than an hour so I let Sofia take care of him. I took my sketchbook out after a long time. I didn’t have anything particular in my mind, so I just started drawing a beautiful dress I saw on TV. I was watching the met gala on TV a week ago, I was astonished by a dress worn by a popular model to the gala. I couldn’t take my eyes off of it. It was a floor-length gown with a thigh-high slit and only one arm covered in fabric. The silhouette itself wasn’t exceptionally unique, but the pattern on the dress dropped my jaw. Reminiscent of bea
You are my FLAME Starry sky.
I called Jay after a while staying with Damon. It wasn’t hard to distract Damon. I just had to ask him if he wanted to play games with me. “Hey, Jay, What’s up?” I tried to sound cheery hoping he forgot all about last night. “Can we meet? I want to talk.” He asked me. I noticed the discomfort in his tone. We never acted formally towards each other before but then we never said things that hurt each other either. “Sure.” “Let’s meet at the coffee shop near my dorm. See you there, Aves.” The way he called my name made me smile. That was kind of saying, ‘I forgot all about last night so you don’t need to worry about that.’ I could have called him to our café, but I didn’t want to when my mom is upset especially when the matter is related to them. When I arrived at the coffee shop he wasn’t there yet so I decided to wait while having a cappuccino. So I ordered before. “Hey Aves,” Jay came in and sat on the chair across me announcin
You are my FLAME Promises.
The wind that blows stops for no one, Like unfettered dreams, boundless and free. This spinning earth won't ever forget you. Each new day dawns just for you. A brand new day peeks from my heart. Awaken Oh, my soul Seize the day in your hands. And spread your brand new wings. Little by little, life's burdens start to weigh. With each new dawn, the longing heart pines away, As the days fly by, desires lay in wait When you speak with me, Hope blossoms anew. Tomorrow if I wake up beside you, A brand new path becomes ours. ................................................ “Will you stay with me forever?” he asked me. No matter when he asks me that question my answer will always be ‘yes’ but I didn’t say it out loud. I knew somethi
You are my FLAME Dear Jay,
I told the name of the hospital to the driver where he was supposed to drop me after a second. My mind never once warned me to change my decision. I knew it in my heart that I had to go to Jay. ‘I don’t care if I was going to meet the queen, Jay comes first.’ When I reached the hospital, I asked for directions from the receptionist at the front desk and almost ran to the ward that she pointed out. I saw Jay sitting on one of the visitor’s chairs in the hallway. He looked aghast. He wasn’t sobbing but tears kept racing down on his cheeks. “Jay,” I called out his name slowly walking towards him. He turned his head towards my direction looking at me with his sad eyes. As soon as he saw me, his chin trembled even though he was biting his lip to control himself and his eyes poured out tears in a flood of uncontrollable tears. I ran to him and hugged him. He hugged me back tightly throwing his hand
