His first love (chapter Twenty-seven)

"Dave"

His eyes takes familiarize of the bouncy brown hair floating on the slim shoulders with dyed wine on the sides of the hair. Her cat eyes attracts in the past memories.

"Bella" he calls , doubting the vision infront of him. How long has it been?, she can't possibly be the one in front of him.

Ten years, she walked out those doors , ten years her vow to never to return stays in his memory. The calm eyes were in terror that night, fading her glow in the darkness.

"I can't take it anymore, you're great guy but..this has to stop. I want a breakup" a low sighed exhaust his lips as she ended their years of relationship like it was nothing.

"Can you at least tell me the reason why you're breaking our relationship?" He asked , taken by the sudden changed in her heart. There wasn't any fight between them nor differences that couldn't be talked out.

These same lips in sight stayed muted that night to all his question, her feet walked out with no return looks at his fallen face and broken heart.

"I need your help, can we talk , somewhere private" she requests with eyes on James that made not a move to her pleads. His hate for her still intact even after years.

That year even his plead was rejected by her. He recalls his Friend chasing the car she boarded, begging for her to stay and grant him a second chance of wrongs he knew not of but she was too high to come down.

"Please, it urgent. I can't take it any longer, I need you Dave" she pleads out, bowing her head in her hands.

"It killing me"

James head waves to the opposite in sight of Dave's plead to grant them space. His legs stays stick on the chair. Even with little interest on what his eyes are scanning,he stayed put on it just to have her corrupted of her agenda.

"Please, just a minute"

He conceals in on Dave's plead, in huffs he walks out shoving her out of the way.

She grabs the seat left free by James after a go for gesture from Dave.

"How can I help you?"

"I don't know what's happening to me, I just don't feel myself" she said out , an awkward sight of him observing her body movement.

She tries to maintain as much as she can not to appear insane to him. As much as she needs his help she hope it won't be a scandal one cause it might affect her career and life.

"Can you tell me more about your problem" he furthers in , standing the pen for the pure sheet.

"I get scare of everything, I see clowns. His voice is still in my head, I know it him. He's doing it all to get back at me both him and her", her body moves in motion, sending her hands round her body frame and hair which her fingers left tattered out. Her voice above it natural tone.

"Who's he and her?" he asked pending down her statement. His eyes still capturing her hands, it views her eyes going for the corners of his office shifting her body in cage to the chair.

He can tell she has anxiety and hallucinations from her constant stare at his door way, skipping his presence and chatting a leave me word to the door but clearly there's no one.

"Bell" he calls her by the doll name he used to call her. She's quick to respond to his call, she turns her focus at him.

"Who's him and her?"

"He's my ex. I dated him for three years and ended breaking up cause he was too possessive. He didn't take our breakup so smoothly, he swore to get back at me. And she's the one I got replace of. Her show was given to me , she also didn't take it well. Ever since , I've been having troubles" she concludes .

"How sure are you that they're behind your attacks"

"Only he knew am scare of clowns" well not only him, Dave too is aware.

The last her colleagues played the front game to her of clown party, she passed out. That night he spent taking care of her.

"I keep seeing him every where in clown costumes, and her voice of vengeance is all in my head, I hear her".

"You could have easily dealt with it there why did you ask for my aid?" He asked baffled at her decisions.

If she's struggling with mental issues the states is her best option to cure her disease, she's a resident with life to hold on to. Why did she fly all the way back?.

"Because I don't want it to go out . Even a little glimpse of my mental state can ruin my career and life." Oh how did he forget, she's a world renoun ballerina, a news of her mental state can cause her immense loss. Asked off shows posted to her, lost of endorsement that she's championing, in all no one will ever contact her if it gets out.

"I can't risk my career like that, I'll lose everything if the media gets hold of it. My departure was in secret, no one knows of my location" she opens out, he clearly knows how she treasures her career.

It was one of the foundation of their breakup.

Her skills are that of a goddess, many companies butt in with contracts, at last she signed a contract with a foreign company.

"And you believe having me as you doctor would be safe" he hinted with a crooked brow

"It might have been years but I still know you. I trust you more than I trust myself, just please help out"

"I won't say no, as a doctor it an obligation to treat every patient if handy enough to. You're a patient"

"And there ends the one minute" James intentionally barged in , shutting eyes with Bella.

"I think it time you make a disappearance"

....

With several days of anger Dora finally gives in to let him pass with his wrong. The store was stocked with the closed sign on the door. Leaving them with privacy to their satisfaction.

He cups her cheeks with a peck in her chin then helps straighten her laptop. His hands massages her shoulders while she types the last chapters of her book. She folds in a disturbing sigh with the ring of her phone.

Edward answers the call and aid it to her ear while she type .

"Yes" she responded to the chat on the other end,

"no way, does she knows ?" she asked suspending her fingers, she hooked the phone in control, sending it for the other ear.

"Hell , what. Should we tell her?"

"You're right it best she comes to know from him" she ends the call with a loud gasped ,taking Edward on his toes.

"What happened?" He concerning asked.

"Dave's ex is back, Dora phoned to tell. James informed her"

"Bella is back?"

"You know her?" She attack with heavy eyes stab at him, her head driving in jealousy of how he got to know her.

" We met several times while visiting aunt and my cousin " he blunts our with late regret.

"Cousin?, Edward how many more secrets are you hiding from me?"

"None, besides the truth of Dave and I being cousins, there's none". He hastily responds .

….

"So are you off to see brother in law?" Samantha joke out with a chuckle. June smiles it off, kissed her father goodbye then leave for her fiance section.

On her entering to his office she bumped her head on hers, both syncing apologised with a smile off. Well let see if that last long.

"Hi am Bella" she introduces with a sweet smile that can warm any heart but James .

"June" she sends forward her hand to her grip.

James soon fall out, catching the scene.

"June, I see you've met Bella. Bella this is June Dave's fiancee" he intentionally introduces with a grin .

"Hi, am Bella Dave's ex" she spikes in return.
