A MAZE OF GREED

"Don't stop, Ruth. Run, run!" Thea yelled again while moving her hands. Before Edwin turned her around and got a chance to see her face, Ruth pulled her hand up and jabbed his nose. Edwin wailed in pain as he felt his nose go numb with pain. Instinctively he freed Ruth to cover his nose with both hands. He bent over a little as his eyes watered because of pain. "You!" He hissed in anger as he leapt again for Ruth. But she managed to run before he could catch her again. Her head turned around in shock when Edwin's hand tore her dress when he tried to grab her. It also surprised Edwin as he had not intended for this to happen. He looked up from the piece of cloth in his hand to see gorgeous hazel eyes. He stood rooted to his spot as his mind went blank. Ruth managed to get out of the property and ran with Thea without looking back. The guard came panting, but Edwin didn't notice him as his eyes were still trained on the gap in the wall, through which Ruth escaped. He slowly looked at the brown fabric in his hand, and the image of those alluring hazel eyes flashed in his mind. He clutched the fabric tightly in his hand, and the word left his lips in a whisper.

ENGRAVE MY WORDS IN YOUR MIND!

Darius finally left the flock of people and his parents behind as he walked to his room. Reaching the door, he paused for a while, contemplating if he should open the door.

Was he ready? Was he able to step inside the room where her scent used to cover every inch of its space? Was he strong enough to push all those memories to the back of his mind? Would his weeks of isolation come to his use to help him not think about her and her betrayal?

Closing his eyes momentarily and after mustering up all his courage, Darius finally pushed the door open. As soon as the door hit the wall behind it after opening wide, Darius stepped in only to be greeted by the cold loneliness. His steps froze. His brain told him to turn around and leave, only to never come back to this place again.

But his dead heart longed to be here, the only place where he felt close to her other than her… grave.

A chill ran down his spine as he recollected the days and nights he had spent sitting at Lisa's grave.
