Chapter 5


while she was playing her violin, all the trees bowed to her, not only the tree, the birds, the animals came out of the woods and did the same thing, even the lion. He came in front of Linda and bowed to her. The sunlight rays began to focus on her, the sky started turning pink and the moon started appearing although the sky was just a scattered handful of stars which looked magnificent. The stars were shinier then they ever were and they threw down its spears of light, brightening up the sky to the mixture of pink, yellow, black and boom! Everything disappeared, the sun was to where it was positioned, the trees, at a 90 degree angle, no animal was to be seen, not even the birds and her eyes were open. Yes, they were open, that’s why everything disappeared. She hasn’t witnessed that herself, nor does she know she is special.
I was numb after I heard what happen. My memory is blurry but I’ve heard of this situation, no, I think I’ve been through this.
My thoughts get interjected when I witness the most beautiful moment of my life.
Linda and Evan are walking around the tree, holding hands when abruptly Linda stops and takes out something from her box. ‘Evan, promise me you will keep this safe?’ She hands him a locket shaped as a key. Linda unbuttons her shirt revealing a heart shaped locket.
‘Only the key you have can unlock the locket I have’
 ‘So does this mean I’m the key to your heart?’ she lightly punches Evan and he laughs.
‘Yeah kind of’
‘I swore to keep this key safe until it unlocks your heart, by the way, when can I unlock it?’
‘Hey it’s not funny!’
‘I’m serious, when can I?’
‘On the day of our marriage’ Linda shyly speaks.
Evan’s cheeks turn red but he keeps on walking.
‘Linda, you don’t have to feel that you are alone, you have me and that’s enough. You don’t need millions of friends by your side but only one who will stand by your side when the millions are against you.’
Linda has tears in her eyes and Evan takes her in his arms.
‘I’ll always be here with you even if the world is falling apart.’
I don’t know what to say. I brush my hand over the key shaped locket I have on my neck. Is that me? It’s not possible… I’m not Evan… I am just over thinking.

Chapter 7 The doctor leaves Evan numb and shocked. He falls down on his knees and cries for hours and hours. Regaining his courage, he stands up and walks into Linda’s room. ‘Hey’ ‘Hey’ Linda offers a smile and Evan smiles back ‘We have to talk Linda. I was just messing around with you. I and my friends planned on pranking you.’ ‘Ok…’ Linda lightly laughs while twiddling her fingers recklessly. ‘What do you mean?’ ‘All this I love you, you love me, we love the whole world nonsense   was fake. Everyone hates you and besides, why would I even like a girl who can’t walk anymore for the rest of her life. So let’s end it here. I laughed, my friends laughed. We are happy. No one cares about you. Who did? Your parents suffered because you came to this world with your stupid powers, they were kicked out of the village because of you. Everyone hated them because of you, why would anyone like you after what you did. You shouldn’t have come to this world. I never should have met...

Unconditional Love

It all started with a beautiful morning. The sun shinning brightly through the muffled clouds; the orange trees laced with sunlight, the birds chirping a humble tone, the air heavy but gentle at the same time and the wind politely crashed onto my face like a wave out of the ocean.   It was a Friday and my 970th day at the foster home.   Why I was there is probably what you’re thinking, right? Or why am I using past tense? Am I dead? Or am I about to die? Or did I write this manuscript and then I died? Or am I still alive? You will sooner or later find out. Either one. So the foster home was it? Well I was not like all the others. I was kind of unique, or different or exceptional or special or anything else which you think is the opposite of normal. Stuttering is a speaking disorder which isn’t a big deal for some people but for me it was. You see, my family abandoned me when I was five when they found out about the stuttering.   It was a wintry and cold and humid...

Chapter 4 ‘I’ll get married. Yes! Oh god, I should start preparing for my marriage, cook the food, the decorations, my dress, oh my there is so much to do.’ Suddenly she trips and falls down. ‘I forgot the most important thing. I have to find the man of my dreams first shouldn’t i? Oh god, who will marry a piece of trash like me?’ Linda murmurs as she stands up and brushes away the dust on her clothes. ‘I will’ a boy walked up to her. His hands crossed at the back of his hips. She stopped dead in her tracks. She turns around slowly and covers her hands on her face, closing her eyes. ‘Please don’t kill! Please! Ill give you my house, and my clothes, and my food and…’ the boy walks up to her laughing and taps on her head. ‘Hey, I’m here to be friends, not kill you’ Linda’s jaw drops and she stares at him as if he just slapped her. ‘My friend?’ ‘Yup, your friend.’ Linda screams as she just discovered a cockroach on her hand. And in the spur of the moment, she grabs the boy’s hand and...
