I Closed My Eyes And She Slipped Away นิยาย & เรื่องราว

She closed her eyes. “Adrian.” “Hm?” “I’m glad the terrifying thing didn’t work.” He stayed quiet for a moment before pulling her even closer. “So am I,” he said softly.

I stood up from my chair and walked towards where she was seated. “Iris,” I called slowly, trying to hold her hands but she drifted away immediately. I know so many thoughts would be running through her head right now. “Please!!” She whispered with her eyes closed. “I should probably get going.” a deep sighed escaped my lips, sadness lingering in my every exhale as I watched her walk away. **** IRIS

-Wait, I don't understand this sudden change," she sounds discouraged. I shake my head and without turning around I speak: "There is nothing to understand. -I close my eyes and take a deep breath. You should be happy because I'll be out of your hair for a while. -I open my eyes. I'll see you later. -And I leave, taking long strides and without turning my eyes towards her so as not to regret what I have just decided.

I want to keep talking. But I can’t. She lifts the newspaper again, flipping the page. "Another missing person," she murmurs. "It’s like people just disappear overnight." I smile, even as the tears slip down my cheeks. "Yeah," I whisper. "It’s just like that." Her figure wavers. The kitchen dissolves. I am slipping away. I welcome it. The pain. The exhaustion. The weight of my suffering. It’s all fading. Finally. I exhale softly, my body surrendering to the darkness. Finally, I’m getting away.

A painless departure was perhaps the best gift I could receive. I closed my eyes, a single tear rolling down my cheek. Slowly, I drifted away.

She knelt, her lips close to my ear, her voice as light as a feather. "There is no next life for you, Silas." She stood, looking down at me. "We're even now." Then she turned and walked away without a backward glance. I watched her figure disappear into the distance, and felt the last beat of my heart fade away. The moonlight fell on my face, just like the first time I saw her. She was huddled amongst the bodies of her pack, her eyes empty and lost. I had held out my hand and said, "Come with me."

Escape! As foolish as she knew that was, she found herself sprinting off but not for too long. The floor beneath her slid open and she fell, a scream escaped her lips but it became silent immediately as the floor closed up perfectly, erasing every trace of her ever being there.

I said to her, even though I knew she could not hear me. But as I started to pull away, I noticed something that caused my heart to skip a beat. Her eyes…they were closed, but they were fluttering. Almost as if they were about to open. “Oh my goddess,” I said, taken aback. Was I hallucinating because I wanted her to wake up that badly, or was this really happening? Then Cassie’s eyes opened slowly.

her hands flew on it's own accord to cover her eyes from the vigorous gleam. She flickered her eyelids, tearing her hand away, slowly opening it to witness her yuvraj but her smile immediately evaporated in the thin air seeing a pretty lady sliding out from the adjacent seat. She quickly tangled her arms around his bulky arm as they stepped inside the palace, crushing her already tattered heart mercilessly...

I left, shrugging off her hand, sliding into the veil the moment I could. ***
