WHEN THE END BECAME HER ONSET...

15. Temporary home

Estella's pov:

I was wondering how could Sam be a kind of foolish person. First I was his bestie then he went for Kelly and now it looks like Kelly is also not the girl. The final destination is somewhere else...there is another girl now and you never know, there could be someone else also, after all, there is no assurance with Sam. Anyways I need to go now. "But where would I go?...I have no place to live at. I don't know for how much time, but I have to do something". I was driving when I saw the same old lady on road. I stopped my car and walked towards her.

"Hey girl, how's it going?", she said with a smile.

"Yeah! I'm fine".

"You look sad what's the reason?".

"Granny, you were right I'm in a parallel universe and now I don't have a place to live in".

"Come on with me", she said. I went with her and she took me to her house. It was a small old hut but when we went inside it was decorated with flowers and it looked really beautiful. The house had a kitchen, a lobby, two more rooms, and of course a bathroom. everything was decorated with fresh flowers. The rooms smelled very pleasant. I wanted to live there forever. I went into a state of mind where everything seemed like heaven. Just me laying in the bedroom which smelled nice and looked very beautiful.

"You can live here with me until you complete your work".

"Thank you so much, granny, by the way, my name is Estella. This kind old lady was very nice and she had a magical vision. I was the one who was thinking badly about her. She looked very beautiful at this age also...she was having white hair but that suited her black gown...

"You might have been very pretty when you were young right?", I asked.

"Yes you're right but it was my fate, no one can stop this", she looked really unhappy while saying all this.

"You look, sad granny, is there anything more going on in your mind? feel free to tell me".

"Yeah, do you want to listen to the story Estella?"

I agreed and she started, "30 years back, I was pretty young living in a rich family in Belgium. I was also from the world where you are from. I wanted to marry a person who cared about me and could make me happy always. But as I belonged to a rich family so my Dad, Watson carter wanted me to marry Mr. Smith's son. Mr. Smith was the business partner of my dad. But the thing is that I never wanted to marry a rich person because I knew that he would never care about me and they are always busy with their work so I left my parents and married a middle-class person namely Shawn".

I wanted to say something but I didn't interrupt because she was overwhelmed by her feelings, so just listened to her and said nothing.

"I was then living a happy life with my husband and two children. It was sudden when my husband died in an accident and after that, I was broken...I had nothing left to do as I was belonging to a middle-class family now, so when my husband died and everything changed in my life. I was in shock by my husband's sudden death and one day I was walking down the street when I had an accident and the same thing happened to me that happened to you.....I came into this universe....I tried to regret leaving my parents but I had done a sin... it was not easy to leave my parents...so I couldn't solve my mistake"

"then what happened to your children?", I asked curiously.

"My children were adopted by a rich family and in this world, they even don't recognize me. But I'm happy that my children are at least happy and have sufficient for their living. But I still regret what I did and this is the punishment from God given to me", Tears were falling down her cheeks while she was telling me all this... I also got emotional. "Now I'm selling flowers for my livelihood. And I could never return to my world because of my incomplete work and I'm spending my life like this only and now I'm also too old and I want to die now".

"I'm sorry granny for what you are experiencing, I know that this would be a burden in your heart forever".

"You're right, now I just want to rest. I don't want to live anymore, I'm now too old to do any work. I pray for you to get success in your work and return to your world soon".

"Yeah thanks, don't worry, what happens, happens for good. "Yes, dear. Now let's go to sleep, let me show you your room", she said while taking me with her.
