Beyond The Tales- Chapter 7


“It was an evening well spent.” Emma is talking to Isabella who is excited to know how her evening with Harman was. 
“Was it romantic? Tell me everything.”
“It was very romantic,I haven't seen something so beautiful”
“I knew it,you and Harman are perfect for each other. I am so excited.”
“Yeah, they are perfect for each other.”
“They? are you even listening to what I am saying.”
“Harman and Jo they are perfect for each other.”
“Who is Jo? I don’t get it, what do you mean?.”
“I met Jo today, Harman’s girlfriend.”
“Wait what?girlfriend?when did this happen?”
“Harman met her in Melbourne and they have been dating for a while.”
“what? that doesn't even make sense, what about you?”
“What about me? you always knew there was no love story here, stop looking so bumped.”
“But you are my best friend and I want you to have the perfect love story.”
“And I am his best friend and I want him to have the perfect love story.”
“Emma, there is still time they are just dating if you feel something for him just tell him, you don't want to ever regret it.”
“You know when he introduced her to me I had this sinking feeling like something wrong was happening,I ignored that feeling then but now I know, I am scared that I will lose him and things are never going to be the same.”
“You don't have to feel that way, just tell him.”
“That is not how things work Isabella.”
“Then how are they suppose to work?Tell me what do you think is the right thing?”
“They are the right thing,the way he looks at her, the way his eyes light up when he is talking about her that is right.Do I wish that would have been me? yeah, may be but it is not.I am sure that there is someone who will look at me like that someday.”
“what if he is the one, he is the one who is suppose to look at you that way and he just doesn't know it yet?”
“Bella this is not my love story it is theirs, mine is somewhere out there or maybe not. I just don't think that this one is mine.”
“Emma remember the first love story that you ever  wrote in which the boy tells the girl that you can’t force someone to love you but you can’t even force yourself to stop loving someone, today you are that girl. You love him and there is nothing wrong in that stop telling yourself you don't just because he loves her, look into your heart do you love him ? if yes go tell him that, remember you will never know what he thinks until you ask.” 
“Tell him? what do you want me to tell him? that he should forget her and love me instead because I don't want to loose him? That in the past six years he has been the centre of my universe and he is the reason that I don't hate mornings anymore. You want me to tell him the time we spent together star gazing is the highlight of my day and just his name makes me smile. You want me to tell him that I can’t stand how awful as a cook he is but I love when he cooks for me, you want me to tell him that he has the most horrible taste in books but I still read all those books cause I love when we spend hours talking about them.You want me to tell him that I love him like I love the characters of my favorite books not for his look not cause of the way he smells but because of his heart, his thoughts and the way he makes me feel. I can’t do it Bella, I can’t. 
Suddenly the phone in the room rings, 
“Hello, were you sleeping? Sorry if I disturbed you.”, said Harman 
“No, no I was just, forget about it nothing important. Tell me, you okay?”
“Yeah, I don't know why I suddenly had this feeling that something wasn't right. Emma do you wanna go star gazing.”
“Now?”
“Yes,if only you want to.”
“I will see you in five, bye.”
“Bella,I got to go. He needs me.”
“I agree, he needs you.”

Treat Others As You Want To Be Treated

My motto has always been when in doubt write it out, I have been thinking about this for a really long time and I think I have finally  found the words.  You got to do something for me, think about the last time you bumped into someone or someone by mistake hit your hand. I doubt you can recall this instance now think of the time when someone said something to you which made you feel really small or miserable. I am sure you could think of at least one or two. Look at it this way when someone bumped into you it must have hurt you that time may be it even left your skin red, got a few reactions out of you. On the other hand when someone said something to you, randomly used a few words which left no physical scar on you it is this instance that you clearly remember, you know why because it is the way they made you feel.  The sad fact is that we have all done this, we have become the generation th...

Airport Romance- Chapter three

This is the moment I know I should say something to her something that would make her feel better, but I am out of words. It is so refreshing to see someone who is so in touch with her emotions. “God, here I am telling you my life story and I don’t even know anything about you. So what are you running from?” saying this her switch has worked again, there is a massive smile on her face and the spark is coming back. “I am running from my work, same old boring story.” “It cannot be that bad, what do you work as?” “ I am an actor.” “An actor, I haven’t met one before, are you any good.” “ Decent, I have a few fans here and there.” “Give me you phone.” “Oh okay, here you go.” I am not sure what she is looking for, but I can see her trying to google something. “You call yourself decent? God how many awards have you won?” “I have  a long way to go trust me.” There it is again she knows I am an actor and just like everyone else she is going to act all weird now. ...
