Sapphire "You called me, pretty girl?" Sean asked as he approached me. "Where were you?" I asked in a stern voice. I didn't know how to not show this anger anymore. It was getting into my nerves and I can't help even a bit of it. "I was with few of my mother's friends. They were forcing me to stay inside-" "-and get drunk and completely forget you have you date standing outside, waiting for you." I completed it for him. He frowned and moved closer to me. "What's wrong? Why are you mad?" "Why am I mad?" I faked a laugh. "Great. I am completely fine roaming around aimlessly in this place while you enjoy your time inside." "I was not enjoying myself inside, Sapphire, if that's what you are thinking." He said, anger evident in his voice. "A friend of my mother wanted to buy one of her painting and he had me stuck theiwr. It is my mother's art gallery and it is my responsibility to take care of it. How could you even think I'd do such a thing, satpphire? I brought you here, didn't I?

"How did you meet my grandson?" "Um.." I hesitated, "there's nothing interesting about.." "Oh come on. Every high school girl's life is interesting.." "Okay so.. I met Sean a few years ago. Like, I didn't meet him, but I crashed into his party. So that was when I first saw him.." "Aw.. that's so cute. carry on." "So.. like a few weeks ago, Sean wanted to be my friend.." So I ended up telling her the whole thing. Of course I had to miss a few details but I pretty much covered everything. She would occasionally say My grandson's such a charmer That is so cute Oh, I wish I were in your position. Why didn't my husband find these to woo me? "That's because, grandma, you are too old for that." Sean commented about the last remark. "It would, not only embarrass grandpa but would make us hide our heads under the table if he got up now and announce he is your fake-boy friend." "Don't you ever dare call me Old, you get that? I still look prettier than your mom." She glared and crosse

My father looked offended. He was angry and it was getting on his nerves,too. It's better we end it. This week has had enough drama already. "Sapphire.." My father warned me with anger. "Do not talk to her like that." Sean said, now glaring at my dad. "You can't tell me what I do with her-" "I can and I will." Sean cut him off. "She might spare you for this but I won't. So, please watch where you are going." "Sean, wait-" I tried to calm him down but Sean already was ahead of me, his chin up while he spoke to my father. "What makes you think she's going to stand this? What is she to you?" Sean said. "She is our daughter." Helen said. Helen was the type of woman that cares less about thereality. Now is exactly the time where she needs to dig out of a powerful comeback to support- or rather impress my father. "And we hold every right to correct our children." "I am not your daughter" I made my point. " Never was, never will." "Is this how you speak to your mother, Sapphire?" Hel

Sapphire I wriggled around in my bed for a quarter hour before I decided to get my ass out of it. Sean promised me that he would take me to Nina's house today. If there is another person that deserves an apology, then that would be Nina. I have been anything but nice to her. She wanted to be there for me. She tried to pull me out of the trap that I was paving for myself. But I'd didn't listen. She tried. But I failed her. I not only failed her trust but I failed out friendship. And I had to build my strength to face her. Though it is surprising that she is still mad at me even after knowing what has happened to me, I should care less about it right now. Because after all, I am like this because I didn't listen to her. I had pushed everything away and suddenly my new friends were allied. I left behind everything for them and it is indeed very stupid of me to do that. I deserve this. I deserve every bit of this for the foolishness that I still carried. Last night was wonderful. The

Sapphire "I am so sorry, Sapphire." "Hey, it's okay." "Really, I'm such an awful friend!" "It's okay, you didn't know, right?" "But still, I should have been more persuasive. I knew you were stupid and I still let them get you." "Hey!" "I don't know if I even deserve an apology from you. My negligence has a worse impact than yours." "It's okay. I don't mind, really." "I'll make it up for you. I will even let you borrow my lunch tomorrow-" "Nina?" "Yea?" "Shut up." "Okay." Sean said there was an interesting cafe in the next street that offers coffee in a very modest charge. I instantly agreed on that because standing on a street and discussing our school's gossip is unhealthy. There are so many people that might hear us. Sean said he doesn't care if the prices are high, but it pulls me back to see him pay so much on my food. So, when we did reach there, Sean asked Brett if he wanted to join us. More like, informed him that we're out. And Brett couldn't resist himself. Bu

Sapphire I dragged my suitcase out of my room and pulled it through the stairs. It comfortably slid through it and landed with a thud on the ground. I hushed to myself and took careful steps down and straightened the suitcase. And then, moving over to the front I started pulling it toward me, stepping back slowly. I hit my back with the main door, and didn't realise it until it happened. Sean's impatient honks were heard through the thick door and I opened it with a close proximity to hit my head. When my face was finally thrown out of the door, I scowled at him in response. But I highly doubt he could even see that though his windows glass up since his annoying honks never ended. I quickly put the note I wrote for Juliette on the adjoining table and pulled my suitcase out of the door. As I involuntarily swiped the little sweat forming across my forehead, I slowly shut the door and locked it. I checked it for assurance and turned around. I dragged the bag down with great difficulty

Sapphire When I was told we're going to a summer house, I thought it would be cute little house alongside a beach with a small gate and a room for a short family. But it was nothing like what I imagined it to be. To say it's huge is an understatement. I doubt if we can note it as a summer house because it's almost like a mansion. Not a huge royal paintings kinda mansion but bright technology kinda mansion. Both the ways it was a mansion. I felt Sean's fingers closing my jaw up, that has been gaping at the sight before me for the past 10 seconds. "I didn't know a summer house could be this beautiful." I said. "This is not the summer house, pretty girl." He said, with a chuckle. "What?" I asked. "This is where my grandparents live when they need their alone time. It's their holiday place most of the time when they aren't fine to travel around the world kicks in." "Why did we come here?" "We're going to stay here for tonight and start to the summer house tomorrow in the morning

Sapphire I got a bit too enthusiastic for our next date and ranted a few random excuses for Peach to believe my urgency to leave her. Ofcourse she was insistent to know about the awkwardness of the situation but I made sure I acted well in front of her that she would have no clue about what we're up to. I asked Sean for help to convince Peach but he just flipped it off. He said he couldn't care less about the whole matter and asked me to feed some noses into her brain. But that's not that easy to do. Peach might act like a kid, but she is very smart. She can sense if anyone is lying and would quickly sense the fishy thing. Though it is good to have her here and she's very good at heart, it's very difficult to keep up with her. She talks a lot and she has so much in her mind that I'm afraid that I'll fail to keep up with her. And back to where I was, I hurriedly walked from the gallery and headed to the stairs. In my over enthusiasm, I took two steps at once and tripped over the las

Sean Her face lit up like the night sky. She widened her eyes as her face broke into a huge grin. She looked dreamily at me and then back at the muffin I was holding. Though it was a small thing, she seemed pretty happy with it. I silently took out my Polaroid and captured the face while she looked up at the fireworks a few moments back. When she finally did land her eyes on mine, the genuine smile spread across my face made the moment even more magical. It's so unfair she can look so beautiful without any effort. She hardly tries to put make up, or anything for that matter. Yet she manages to make me fall for her every moment I look at here. The love that I have for her drives me insane. It's not just once, that I fell for her. She can effortlessly male any man fall on his knees. She creates an aura around her that no one can resist. "You knew it?" She asked, incredulously. Darling, I've been in love with you for a long time. "Of course." I said, carefully picking my words. "

Sapphire."How's it?" Sean whispered into my ear, making a tingling sensation.We were right now standing on the deck of the ferry, on the top most floor, while the rest of the family stayed down.After our little make out session in Sean's room, my face was all flushed with red. Though his warning seemed intimidating, I can't refuse to say that it was tempting.We got down and met Julia. She's changed plans and came here directly to travel with us.We soon got into the ferry and set off. Everything was going fine and his family greeted me, and that's when Sean decided to pull me up.I warned him I don't want to get caught making out by their family but he just waved it off and dragged me up.As soon as I climbed my last step, he sealed my eyes with his hands and said he wanted to show me something.He guided me to a certain place, carefully taking small steps with me. He slowly took his hand off my eyes."Amazing." I breathed out, looking at the view before me."I knew it." I could fe
