The red string(William James moriarty)|| Moriarty The Patriot

Chapter 33 (Surprise party?!)

Everyone! I am sad to inform you that I have to go to my boarding school for months. I am unsure of when I will be back again but when I will, I will be posting a lot. And besides I have complete all the manga chapters.

I was planning to write more but I only have an hour before heading back to my dormitory *sad face insert*. So the rest of the story will have to wait for a while.

I hate to go back to school...but I guess it will be fun...I hope. But please look out for the next chapter once in a month.

Miss ya all!

"I am leaving!"

Emilia let out a shout before starting to head to her clinic. She closed the main door to the Universal Exports building and started walking in the path she usually goes to. Except today she felt a bit different...she couldn't term it into words properly but maybe it was loneliness? She was unsure of this uneasy feeling she bitterly disliked.

"I wish he was here..." Emilia muttered in her breath while her head was facing the ground, she just couldn't look up for she would burst into tears immediately if she saw her surroundings.

The reason was quite simple, today was her birthday. She missed a person dearly and wished to see him again, which is her husband. Years passed by and the desire eventually grew, despite being in the presence of so many loveable and kind figures her heart ached for someone who was probably dead.

Another sigh escaped her mouth as the thoughts flooded her mind. Suddenly she stopped in her tracks and rose her head to see a certain particular sight which she treasured.

There was a big tree inside a park which could be seen from outside due to its massive size, the thing which made it different from the other trees in the area was that it was the only tree which gave lovely pink leaves in the spring and red-dried leaves in the autumn. But it was not the only thing which made it memorable to her, a certain memory was attached with it which was replying in her mind over and over again.

(Flashback~!)

5 years ago...

Two young lads were walking in the park in an indeed peculiar way. The girl was blindfolded  while the boy led her the way, both were giggling and talking  merrily with each other.

"Have we reach the place yet?" Emilia held his hand firmly so that it would be easier following him without giving him any trouble. While small giggles escaped her lips, curious for the gift her fiance would give her.

"Yes here we are!" William paused in his tracks making Emilia stop as well. He took off her blindfold off counting '1,2 and 3 in the small process.

"The tree?" Emilia questioned unable to understand why he would choose a spot which they regularly pass by to reach their respective work places, he could have choose something odd not that she disliked it, it was just that his choice was something she never expected.

"My plan to make you puzzled seems to have succeeded I presume?" He lightly chuckled as he walked upto the old tree and caressed it gently, also enjoying the view of the falling Sakura petals.

"I wanted to make it a very memorable part of your life which you could view every single day while you go to your clinic." He glanced at her with one of his rare angelic smiles which was enough to make her blush.

Tugging a piece of hair behind her ear she mumbled with a sweet dye of red on her cheeks,
"You have planned something special no?"

He merely nodded and pulled out a jewelry box from his coat pocket, and handed it to her motioning to open it herself. She curiously yet gently opened the box revealing a shiny red Ruby which matched the colour of William's scarlet eyes. She picked it up and placed it in mid-air which was in the direction of his right eye and began admiring how well the jewel resembled the colour of his eyes.
