54 The love of thirteen years (2)

Samantha​ walked to the guestroom grumpily.

After taking a shower, she changed into her nightwear and she then laid down on the bed, staring at the ceiling quietly.

Suddenly, a beam of sparkling blue light reflected on the white ceiling and then gradually the whole room was glowing in a mesmerising blue light.

For once Samantha was startled but then upon realising something, she lowered her head to find the beautiful little pendant hanging on her neck, was indeed the source of light.

It was an extremely rare gemstone, crystalline blue in colour and in the shape of a water drop, the gemstone was indeed mesmerising to the eyes.

Once light is directed on the gemstone, it will glow enormously emblazing the surrounding. Just like the sky radiates the sunlight.

That's why it's said that it represents 'the sky'

Samantha sat up, holding the pendant in her hands.Her thoughts drifted over to the past.

"What's this? it's very very pretty" A young girl was smiling cheerfully holding a beautiful pendant in her hands

"It's something that I treasure. It represents the sky" A young boy replied

"Sky? means you?" the girl asked puzzled

The boy merely chuckled

"But you said it's your treasure, then why are you giving this to me?" The girl spoke hesitantly

"Because I've started treasuring you more" The boy spoke seriously, staring straight into her eyes, he continued pointing to the pendant "Remember I'll be always there for you"

The pendant was a gift to her from the man. The keepsake of their young innocent love.

Since that day, she had always kept the pendant close to her, it gives her the sense of security, that no one else could provide. She felt loved, she felt protected whenever she wears the pendant

She was waiting for him for past twelve years.

Sky

Her love

She thought her love for him was so deep that there's no place left for anyone else.In the past twelve years, she had too many suitors but no man was able to move her heart.

But Ethan Go...

There was something about him, that makes her unable to resist him.

Maybe it's his eyes, that resembles to that of sky or maybe it's his touch or the way he cared for her

No matter how hard she tried to steel her heart, he still was able to melt her.

A tinge of disgust rose inside her, she can't help but feel this way. Isn't it the same as betrayal.

No...she loves sky. She had loved him all these years, she can't betray him at this point.

Just as she was deep in her thoughts, the door opened from the outside.

She hurriedly wiped her tears and hid the pendant
