Darkness....

"mm... mmm. . mm....stop.. mmmm.

This sounds!?

" OMG! Office romance... Ohh how lucky they are..!! Let's see who is the 'CEO eating Sectary' couple making full advantage of empty building when I came near I saw a woman forcing herself on on him - Manager Lin.I quickly marched my footsteps towards her and detached herself from him and gave a tight slap on her face on impulse.

" Slaap...

It was so powerful that a clear sound was echoing in the whole basement, the impact was so heavy that she fall down.

"What the hell... Before I could complete a large hand grabbed my collar with force jerking me off aside and helping to her aid.

What the....!!

How dare you slap her ? " He said it while pointing a finger at me in demanding and obnoxious way totally opposite from his usual self.

I thought he was single maybe they have started dating recently yeah....this is it they have just started I had known him for like four years.....no...be positive... Yeah," she repeatedly chanted the words just like mantras for raising equanimity in herself.

"Because she was forcing herself on you ,I said regaining myself the preposterous look in his eyes was revealing the truth that I don't want to interpret. As the saying goes your eyes without speaking confess the secrets in your heart and his eyes were clearly flaunting it.

"Though you are dating her I want to tell you that I like you, " I said it with grabbing all of my sanity and courage left within.

"Will you considered my proposal", she said while choking on her words.

"Slaaappppp.....

" You... You bitch stay away from him , she said in complete rage and and fury . She was fuming for that but right now she doesn't care because for letting go she has to confessed her feeling she been harbouring for him all this while.

She would rather be destroyed than defeated because what remains is guilt just like termite they eat you up from inside remaining the thick walls only for showcasing to others.

"You .. ..really fall for my farce,did you?

I was just being considerate and amicable towards you pitying on your condition otherwise who would have talk to an ugly frump up bitch and a charcoal piece like you", he sneered at his words making a vomit like face showing how ugly of demoness she was!

Her eyes grew bigger at the last words spoken out of him.Everytime when he used to sweet talk with her, passing jokes and making her feel special like she is the only one was all just an act to pity me by showing his kindness.All of a sudden she realise at the end of the day it was all an endless pool of lies.

She felt like all of her senses have gone numb the world around her was revolving,suddenly her eyes became blurry her body was floating. 'The thing ' inside her chest was uncontrollably paining as if someone has pierced a thousand needles into her hearts, her lungs were heavy suffocating her and tears were threatening to rolled down from her cheeks.

She was not that shaken when she slapped her so why is it damn hurting me so much now , her whole body was paralyzed ; her mind couldn't able to digest the words. The liking was abraded and was replaced only by anger and hatred after realizing the epiphany of the statement.

" Sympathizing me, fuck off ! that sick bastard really have nerve to say that but in reality it was me who help him by teaching the ABC of events whether it is managing,socializing planning or organizing. Surely I have been suffering but I didn't loose my rationality, no one has a right to point a finger on my colour, character and worth.

" Slap....

"You really have balls to snatched my hardwork claiming them as yours and even saying you have sympathised and pitied me",I said in guttural and cold voice while raising my volume.

" Thank god! Your true form manifested in real time otherwise I would have never known how uncouth cuckold and bastard of a man you are or I would have been really fall for your farce and yeah, I look at his one ass of a girlfriend and said, " Please keep this to yourself I don't use secondhand and retard men like him ".

" Y- You.... "

I just want to get out of here and quickly get away from there because I can't stand both of them anymore.

"So It's true, when all is said and done, grief is the price we pay for the person we like. "

....

The sun rays were falling on my face alarming me that it's time to wake up but being a slouch have it's own perks you are a innovator of your own dreamland.

I unfolded the stick and draw the curtains covering the whole window resulting in utmost darkness in the room, I sigh a breath of relief and drifted of to sleep again.

But this time sleep was playing a hide and seek with me I probably can't find sleep in my eyes though they were heavy and swollen.

I made light breakfast for myself I didn't know that rejection can upset your stomach instead of heart :pancakes with chocolate milkshake.

I was sipping through my milkshake,

Lightbulb!

A brilliant idea pop in my head I remembered the hidden camera he had installed in my office bag stealthily just to keep a tap on me from any recuperation. I was literally mad at him in tyro but eventually gave in to his demands and quickly dialed his number. I'm not that of a saint because I like to hold deep grudges against people who tries to harm me or the people I love and repays them with interest as a remainder that Says'Dont mess with me".

Ring....

Tomorrow when he came crashing through my apartment just for seeing that I was doing okay, he always check on me like parents check on their children before going to bed, warmth spread through my heart even if the world gave up on me but he can't he will fight with them just for me.

I love him. He is the best buddy, brother and friend one can ever get. Actually I'm indebted to him for loving and accepting me the way I'm. He has filled the gap with his love that others failed to or thought so that I'm not worthy of it.

"Hello....

..

..

"Hello, hello what did you do to yourself..... Hello, he asked being panicky and breaking me off from my trance.

" Just relax, I heard him taking a breath, "I wanted your help the hidden camera you installed ..... He cut me off before I could complete what it's with people , cutting me off.Did I forgot to check the recent trends??

"Sigh"

"Oh I like this version of yours : fierce as tigress yet calm like ocean before storm so whose life is at consent?

Well someone knows me better, " The work is already done you just have to use your magic and spread it out like air that it should be up on tomorrow's headline, "she said in stoic and cold tone giving chills to his body proving his point said earlier.

" Okay, bye the way are you okay", he said with concern.

"Yeah I'm totally fine , bye.....

...

Last night when he said those words as if lightning struck through her, all the memories of her horrendous past came flooded through her reminding her of a girl struggling to be loved.

The abused,harassed and scared little girl though timid but she still wanted to shine brightly even in darkness just like stars : people can't help it but fall in love with them.

She was not that hurt like people who suffer from breakups ,she is not even crying pools of blood for him, last night the words he said it triggered the sensual memories of past that she has buried deep inside in her brain and heart, the feeling of being unrequited revealing her real timid self. Someone said that change is necessary but we cannot change the way who we are in reality and once again she was falling into the darkness.

It was not like before its cold ,numb ,empty , suffocating , the ray of hope is gone now its just darkness and my heart is hollow and its paining. She cried the whole evening tired of being rejected,being strong, carrying facade, fake smiles, being mature she was tired of everything for once she wanted to be real and carefree.

Pop..

Pop..

Pop...

A sudden voice in the dark room gathered her attention breaking off from her trance. She reluctantly rose from the bed and picked up the mobile on the cabinet.

It has four messages and 10 missed calls from her dad,"Uh!? I forgot about the dinner", but one thing caught her attention there was an email. She open the mail, it was from Marine Institute, she was agape, astonished,baffled by seeing her, one can easily say that these adjectives are not enough to describe what she is feeling right now, it was an ecstatic feeling of dreams comes true. she started flickering up and down she would have never thought that she would got the chance to study there.

But how? I never applied for admissions , I open the enrollment form for entrance test of Institute, it stated there that tomorrow you are presence is required for the confirmation. I think I needed a way out from all of and I got it. I booked the plane tickets for tomorrow morning.

I don't care right now how I got it I just knew now I can fulfilled my dream and this is a perfect chance to get away to my freedom.
