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.

EVEN IF THEY ARE MY DEAR ONES!

Thea was restless since she got to know about the dead body near the coast. She sat with Elsie and Ruth, mulling over it but to no use. She still felt nauseated, and her head ached. She looked tired and pale.

"Thea? What is wrong with you? Why do you look like that?" Ruth asked, sitting beside her.

"Brother Edwin told me that you vomiited and are feeling nauseated." Elsie added.

Thea didn't understand how her health turned bad like that.

"I am not geting any good sleep lately. I think it is because of it." She said though she didn't quite believe it herself.

"Are you sure? I think we should get you to the physician." Ruth didn't look convinced by Thea's reasoning.

Thea shook her head. "No need Ruth. I will... be better after some rest."

"Then you should do just that Thea. Brother told you to go home and rest and here you are worrying about everything but your health." Elsie chided her with a frown.
