chapter 8

" Can you see me ?" Lily asks.

Ethan doesn't say anything. He goes near her and sits down. There's a light in Ethan's eyes when he sees Lily, Ethan touches Lily's head ,he can't touch her and he doesn't know how to touch it. The light in Ethan's eyes dims.

"you are a soul" Ethan says.

Ethan looks at Bed and says

" This is your body."

"What is your name?" Ethan looks into her eyes and ask softly.

" My name is lily." Lily says softly.

" Why are you in the form of a soul?

Why don't you enter in your body?"

Ethan asks again.

" I don't want to." Lily says and again She hides her face in her knees.

Ethan slowly touchs her hair and ask softly

" What happened?"

Lily doesn't respond. Seeing this, Ethan sits near her.

After some time, Lily speaks softly

" I don't want to live."

" He doesn't love me."

" I have done everything I could, but he just doesn't love me."

" Am I so bad?"

" Don't I deserve anyone's love?"

And Lily's eyes fill with tears.

After some time,

Ethan asks

" What about your family?"

"Don't they love you?"

" I don't have a family "

"They are all dead."

Lily says.

" What about the man who came today?"

Ethan asks again.

" Ivan" Lily remains silent for a while and then speaks again.

"Ivan works for me. I don't love him."

" But he loves you"

Ethan says.

" But I don't love him"

Lily says again.

After a moment of silence, Ethan speaks again

"what's so special about the one you love."

"He is a good man" Lily says softly.

" He is very good. He is very intelligent. He is rich. He helps people. He respects people.He never does anything against the law. He has everything what I want."

" But he doesn't love you " Ethan says. Ethan's eyes becomes a little dangerous as he listens to lily.

" There are many good man in the world. Why are you so obsessed with him."

"I have poured all my energy on him. I have wasted my best time chasing after him. How can I not love him."

Lily says.
