All Chapters of MY ARABELLA: Thousand years of loving you: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Three weeks laterZoe stood behind the stage, sweat dripping off her face and her palms getting moist. Even when AC was available, she still felt hot.It was time, the day she had been preparing for but it felt like she had never been ready for it. She walks and takes a seat on the sofa, with a deep sigh, she bows her head trying to keep her cool.She is the next step on stage after the ongoing contestants are done and she is trying her best to be her utmost best but things seem to be taking a different part.There is nothing she could think of but Arabella, ever since that incident happened, they haven't had much to discuss and it's pretty frustrating.She isn't sure if Arabella will attend, but deep down she hopes she does."You'll get there in five minutes!" A brown hair man of about his thirties informs.Zoe nods, "Thanks" She grabs the bottle of water by the side and gulps it down.A few minutes passed and it was time for her to go on stage, As she walks in, she never stopped gla

People change, desires differ from the usual and the heart yearns for something else, that's what we all are made to believe but then, it seems as though things get to take effect only if we condition our mind to believe in it.It's been two years now but Zoe was still the same, thinking about the same person and her heart keeps yearning without ceasing.She stood before the tall building, lost in thought while staring at the black clouds that sprawl across the sky, billowing in from the east. The air grows heavy and the humidity presses down suffocating everything beneath it. The scent of rain is dark and heady, the stillness falls over the street and in the silence comes a low crackle of thunder rolling across rooftops to the patterning of tiny raindrops.For a moment, everything stops, even the wind holding its breath. A streak of hot silver splits the sky and the downpour begins The weather was as gloomy as how Zoe felt she stood like a statue oblivious of her surroundings and e

"What's with the look?" Evie grumbles feeling uneasy under Amanda's glare."Nothing" Amanda shrugs, turns and picks up the teacups taking them to the sink."Is there something you wish to talk about?" Evie couldn't understand why she would call her in without any reason."Why does it seem like you are in a haste to go?" Amanda retorts with a question."Of course I am, why won't I?" Evie foolishly answered without thinking." Oh!" Amanda exclaims and faces her with lowered gaze, Is my little niece perhaps in love? " She raises a brow." Jezz, Aunt, what's come over you? " Evie exclaims, almost shouting. Face red in embarrassment." There, I said it... I knew it" Amanda said with a satisfied look seeing Evie's red cheeks." You are truly in love" she adds, concluding her observations." Can you stop? I'm not, ok, we are just friends " Evie tries to deny but her face sold her off."Friends that love each other" Amanda chuckles, shaking her head."No, we don't!" Evie denies."Yes, Evie...

"Where do you wanna go?" Zoe asked from behind, putting on her shoes.Evie's attention was on the picture on the table. It was the picture of both Zoe and Arabella, they look so happy and inseparable that Evie found herself feeling jealous."I don't know!" Her voice was soft, she lowered her head not wanting to look anymore.Deep down, she wants to ask who she is but she dares not. It's not like they are close friends anyways."What about I take you for lunch?" Zoe proposed."I've been eating too much lately" came Evie's short denial."Drink?" Zoe asked."I'm too young to drink, Aunt has specifically warned me not to" Evie grumbles in her stomach, she doesn't understand why Amanda keeps on setting rules for her.Though she has never minded any of it until now, it's suddenly becoming a hindrance for her when it comes to Zoe."What then should we do?" Zoe didn't know how to go about celebrating her when all the things she has in mind are impossible to do."Guess we'll just walk around,

Evie turned around in her bed feeling stuff in her chest and uneasiness in breathing, she froze at the sight of someone staring down at her.That someone makes her heart flutter in excitement and pound in anticipation. It was Zoe, it can only be her.She blinks, assuming it's just her imagination. Closing her eyes, she takes a deep breath and opens her eyes and behold, Zoe was still there staring at her."I must be dreaming!" She mutters to herself, still in disbelief."No, you are not," Zoe voiced, stunning the wandering girl.Evie scrambles on the bed adjusting herself to sit upright, "Zoe?" She calls out, making sure she isn't hallucinating.Lately, she's been seeing Zoe more often in her dreams and even tends to envision her in everything she does. Right now, she isn't sure of what is real and what is imaginary. "Are you that sick that you can't see or what?" Zoe questions with a slightly raised brow."It's real, she's here" Evie murmurs blinking at Zoe, "h-how did you get in? "
