2 Chapter 1

[Mavis]

It was night 9:30 PM and I'm walking aimlessly on a road without a direction, when suddenly a car screechingly comes to a stop beside me.

I didn't even realize it until the dude rolled his window and scolds me something incomprehensible to my brain right now. I apologized to him and got away from there.

I think I should clear up my mind a bit which may not be possible with my current mental state.

I hired a cab and then went to my apartment which was about 20 minutes from my girlfriend's or should I say my ex.

I unlocked my apartment and went straight to my bedroom where I shared countless nights with Mia.

I leaned on my bed and started thinking where I might have gone wrong in my relationship.

I am an orphan or became an orphan two years, three months ago when my parents died in a brutal car accident. It was all over news that day when a drunk driver lost his control over his truck and became a reason for the accident.

In that accident about eight members died in which my parents were included. It became a sensation because a famous pop singer was also one of eight members that day.

I was literally caught off by this unexpected tragedy in my life. My parents were everything for me. Even though they argued sometimes we can be considered very happy little family. My parents both were lawyers and pretty good ones at that.

That day was valentine's day and they were returning from dinner when the disaster struck. I couldn't take the news well at all.

Three months afterwards was the first time I met her. Those three months all I did was drink my sorrows away all night.

I didn't even talk to anyone, even when my friends offered a helping hand. I wasn't an extrovert or anything but after the tragedy I unknowinly became an introvert. Disaster struck me harder than I thought.

Everyday I would go to bar at night even though rational part of my brain tells me that this is not the solution, I couldn't help it. Good thing is that I didn't resort to drugs because even before I went to that stage Mia came into my life.

That was supposed to be like every night. I went to the bar ordered my usual and closed my eyes then started recollecting good memories I had with my parents.

I didn't know when but by the time I opened my eyes she was sitting in front of me staring at me. First thought that crossed my mind was that she was cute.

I was kinda numb to everything at that time so even though I know I was the one who occupied the seat first, I stood up and was going to go search for other table to sit.

"Wait!" she called behind me.

I turned around and asked "What?"

This time I observed her more clearly.

She had fair skin, green eyes and reddish brown hair. God she's not just cute, she's beautiful.

"Are you also drinking your sorrows away?" she asked me.

"None of your bloody business!" I answered her and started going to other table but she wouldn't let me. She stood before me with her hands stretched.

"What the hell is your problem?" I growled at her impatiently.

"Nothing, I was also drinking my sorrows away just like you and want to share my problems with you." she answered.

"Why would I care about your problems?" I asked. God, what's wrong with her head, why would she even want to share her problems with a stranger.

"I know but I heard that if a person shares their problems with another person who has problems, then that other person will also have their problems lessen." she said.

"What kind of fu¢ked up logic is that?" I said and went to the table in the farthest corner.

I sat and started drinking again. After sometime I looked at that strange girl. She's still drinking but this time she's even crying. I guess she just wanted someone to listen her problems.

I sighed then stood up and went to her table.

Damn I'm a softie. I sat in front of her and asked what her problem is.

She then started telling me her so called problems.

That's how we started our journey of love.
