Opening about the past

It's been 2 days since rose is living in that villa. Annie is taking care of rose very well, and rose got really close to annie. She's feeling so comfortable living in stranger's house which she never felt since her parents died.

IN THE MORNING

Rose is now in the bedroom, waiting for annie to bring her breakfast. She's been eating in the room since she's here. Now it seems like she's recovering really fast. She looks more healthy and sound. Indeed annie is taking really good care of rose.

ROSE'S POV :

I'm getting bored by staying in this room alone but I can't do nothing except this. I was in my room thinking annie will come anytime soon with breakfast and the door's being opened.I thought, it's annie. My face lit up as soon as I saw annie.

Annie came with lots of food and glass of chilled fruit juice. The food looked so delicious and mouth watering.

As soon as she came near me and handed over the food tray to me, I started eating and it was indeed delicious. All the time when I was eating, annie looked at me with caring and loving expressions on her face. As soon as I finished eating, she took the tray and gave me medicines.

ROSE : "Annie...When will my medication stop?"

ANNIE : "It's a 5 days course rose."

ROSE : "Okay..."

( With that annie was about go then rose said.)

ROSE : "Annie, could you please be here for sometime with me? I feel so alone and bored here."

ANNIE : "Umm...Rose I'll come in an hour as I left with some more work."

ROSE : "Will you come for sure!?!"

ANNIE :"Yes, yes... I'll come."

ROSE : "Okay... I will be waiting...!"

ROSE'S POV :

After taking medicines, I asked annie to stay with me but she said, she's left with some more work so she'll come in an hour. I felt a bit dissatisfied but that's true, she has many works to do right. She can't stay with me chatting and laughing, but she managed to say, she'll come in an hour after doing all work. I'm really liking her so much, I don't know why. Whenever she takes care of me, I feel like my mom is taking of me. I'm getting used to her caring and loving behaviour, but also I know one day I'll have to go from here and leave annie here and that's true though. I'm just a stranger here, I should not be like this, but I can't help, I missed this love so much since ages.

I've been thinking more and more and was deep in my thoughts when my door got opened and there was annie.

ROSE : "Annie...!!"

ANNIE : "Yes...How are you feeling?"

ROSE : "I'm fine and bored annie..."

ANNIE : "Okay, now I'm here to be with you..."

ROSE : "Are you done with your work?"

ANNIE : "I'm done with all the work, I'm free now."

ROSE : "That's great...!!"

( With that annie came and sat near rose.)

ROSE : "Annie had doctor checked up on me on that day?"

ANNIE : "Yes...yes, doctor had checked you and gave you medicines which you were taking since that day."

ROSE : "Okay..."

ANNIE : "Can I ask you something?"

ROSE : "Sure annie...!!"

ANNIE : "What happened to you that night? I mean, why were you in that state?"

( By that question, all the past scenes rushed in her head.)

ROSE : "I ran from my marriage."

ANNIE : "What!?! I mean, do you someone else?"

ROSE : "No annie... It's just that, my parents died when I was 15 years old. Since then, I was living with my paternal uncle and aunt. They were so rude to me. My aunt used to abuse me and hit me whenever she got angry or frustrated. I was like their slave. My uncle.....Even though he was my uncle but he never stopped his wife from hitting me. He used to see me getting abused. Their son used to pull my hairs really tightly cos he liked me crying and begging him to stop, and now... they want me to marry their son who is one and only to them. So, I managed to sneak out from their house on that night, though it was hard but somehow I came out of that house.

I was running on the scary road at mid night and then suddenly everything got blurry and I was about to fall down on the road when someone came and held me preventing me from falling."

"I couldn't see his face cos of blurry vision, may be he was none other than your sir."

( While saying this, rose's tears were rolling down her cheeks continuously and annie felt so sad and bad for her.)

ANNIE : "So sorry to hear that.... Don't cry...!! Everything will be alright."

ROSE : "I hope so annie."

ANNIE : "I'm so proud of you for running out of that house...!!"

ROSE : "Thank you annie..."

ANNIE : "But rose, why do they want you to marry his only son?"

ROSE : "I don't know annie...they said, there is a purpose behind, making me marry their son and after they will be done with their purpose, they said, they'll throw me out of their house."

ANNIE : "Do you have any idea about that purpose?"

ROSE : "No...!"

ANNIE : "It's okay, Don't stress yourself."

ROSE : "Hmm....."

ANNIE : "But rose, if you leave this house, where will you go then?"

ROSE : "I don't know. I should seek something to make my living."

ANNIE : "Why don't you live here for some more days?"

ROSE : "No, no...I can't leave here like that."

ANNIE : "Listen to me rose, you said, you ran from the marriage so they must be searching for you. If you leave this villa anytime soon, they'll find you. So it is good to live here for some more days as no one will ever doubt, you being here."

ROSE : "But annie...How can I live here? I'm just a stranger."

ANNIE : "You are not a stranger anymore."

ROSE : "So nice of you annie...but what about your sir?"

ANNIE : "Don't worry about that. I'll talk to him."

ROSE : "But I live here only for some more days, okay."

ANNIE : "As your wish."

ROSE : "Hmm..."

ANNIE : "Okay so, I need to go now."

ROSE : "Annie.....?"

ANNIE : "Yes? What happened? "

ROSE : "Can I come down to have food from now? I feel so bored here living in this room all the time."

ANNIE : "Are you feeling okay now?"

ROSE : "Yes!! I'm."

ANNIE : "Okay then, come down from now."

ROSE : "Thank you so much."

( With that annie smiled and left the room.)

ROSE'S POV :

As soon as annie left the room, I fell back on the bed thinking, I feel so relieved now after letting out everything which I was holding on since ages. I felt happy at how she listened to me patiently. She said me to be here for some more days but I felt uncomfortable. I feel so strange cos my own people abused me and now the strangers are trying to heal me. As annie said that, they must be searching for me as I ran from the marriage, I got scared. I don't wanna get found and get abused again, so I agreed to stay here.

I don't know why, but I feel so safe here as if it's my healing place. Whatever, after some days, I'll leave this house any way and find any job to work and earn for my living.

( By thinking such things, she fell asleep.)
