Cost Of Loving Novels & Stories

“I love you, my sweet Theresa. Don’t marry him. Marry me, instead. He doesn’t love you like I do. No one loves you like I do.” Her eyes moistened with tears as she listened to the steady beating of his heart. How could things have gotten to this point? How could he let them? She should hate him for the way he’d treated her -the things he did and said- but she still loved him. Heaven help her… she still loved him and probably always would. She lay in silent misery until the beating of his heart and the warmth of his body lulled her back to sleep.

Because love, in my world, isn’t pure. It’s divided. Dangerous. And it always demands a price.

Hoping that one day I'll have someone to cherish and love. Moving swiftly to where my book collection was, I picked one that was titled, 'Perfect Chemistry' by Simone Elkeles. The love story of Brittany Ellis and Alex Fuentes is so beautiful. Two people from two different worlds falling in love has to be the most endearing sight ever. Maybe one day I might experience such love, until then I need to pack up these books before Natalie gets here. Putting all the books in a box, I checked the time on my phone and it was past 4 pm. I decided to wash up before she got here.

His eyes were so sharp and she saw sincerity in them. Zoya was left speechless. "Promise me Zoya you won't blame this on your Father." "No Prav! I can't accept it!” "You love me, right?" "Of course I love you!" “For me that is more than enough. You know Zoya! Four hundred thousand rupees is not much. Your father even offered me two million rupees to leave you. But I refuse. Love is not a matter of nominal numbers. To me, you are far more valuable than anything else!"

If you subtract half of the night, the busy work, how many years are left? Even if it's just a few days or months with him, it's still worth it. Judy touched the four-leaf clover pendant around her neck and asked, "Is this necklace expensive?" If it was too expensive, she was afraid that wearing it out would make her a target for thieves. Lewis hooked his lips and said, "Not expensive, a little over ten thousand. This is the cheapest gift I've ever given. You can't let my girlfriend celebrate her birthday without a gift. This necklace is called Lucky Love. Meeting you is my luck."

"Why the hell are you in Brooklyn?" "I got married, Dave." Silence. Heavy, stunned silence. "You... you what?" "I got married. To a mechanic. His name is Sebastian. He's broke, he's gorgeous, and he hates the Vane family. It's perfect." "Sienna, have you lost your mind?" Dave shrieked. "A mechanic? Do you have a prenup? Does he know who you are? Does he know you're worth fifty million dollars?" "I'm worth zero dollars, Dave," I said, looking at the empty fridge. "That's why I need the advance."

I had tucked her away in these pages, kept her safe and intact, and now she was standing right beside me. Loving Roman used to cost me everything. It used to feel like I was trading pieces of my soul for a glance or a kind word. It was a transaction where I was always in the red. I would give, and he would take, and I would be left wondering how much longer I could sustain the debt. But now? Now, the cost was nothing like that. It cost nothing to love him today.

“Don’t have it? Ask from your lover! He looks very decently dressed, doesn’t he? That car outside also cost about three million, right? I didn’t expect that you can actually hook up with such a young lover at your age. Hey, gigolo, pay up for your woman!” “Bullsh*t!” Aino was annoyed.

In the end, he hung up. I stared blankly at the banners outside the bus window. How ironic. When James sponsored Tina, he never batted an eye when he paid for Tina. Every year, the Jennings family ranked first among the aid teams supporting the countryside. Yet now, when I wanted to spend my own money on my own medication, that was a waste in James's eyes.

With all my love, O.J❤️❤️💡
