Memories

Chapter 15: Sarah

Rocky and I were having a nice pillow talk, but it was interrupted by Monica. As the door opened, I shouted, pulling the blanket over me, "Ouch!"

Monica turned on the light, and said, "I'm sorry, but Diana has something important to share with you."

Rocky also covered himself with the blanket.

Diana stood behind Monica, closing the door after her.

"What is it?" I asked. "Is it something really important?"

"Yes. It is. Or why would I disrupt your beautiful moment?" said Monica.

"What is it? Is she in any big trouble? Is it about a boy or something personal?" I shot the questions as I couldn't believe Diana was in trouble. I mean she's a happy girl. Always a happy girl. I never had seen her upset and stressed. But I could tell seeing Diana's serious face with no smile on it that Monica wasn't joking.

"Should I leave?" asked Rocky.

"It's fine. You can stay here. As Sarah's boyfriend, you are a part of our tiny family of three best friends. I think you can help with this matter if you want," said Monica.

"If it's in my capability, it'll be my pleasure to help you out any way I can," said Rocky.

I loved Rocky's reply. It made me smile with joy. I knew he was a perfect guy with a kind heart.

I wanted to keep looking at him ... I wanted to be lost in his eyes filled with innocence and love.

"Danny is here," said Monica.

I turned to her, shouting in shock, "What? Who's here?"

"You heard me right," said Monica. "He's here. He has planned something sinister, and she's using Diana to achieve his wicked goal."

"What is it? What the fuck does he want?"

"I don't know much," said Monica. "Only Diana can tell us more about it."

"Let me enlighten you," said Diana. She walked forward and stood two steps ahead of Monica. Then she said, "She wants to ruin your life."

"What the fuck? For what?"

"For what you did to him when you guys were in a relationship."

"What did I do?"

"Break up," said Diana and Monica in unison.

"He wants to ruin my life because I broke up with him?"

"Yes because he thinks it was his insult. Remember he tried to slap you, and Monica stopped him?"

"Yes. I do."

"That is the main reason. He has kidnapped my brother and forced me to bring him here as my boyfriend."

"Fucking asshole. I'm not gonna leave him. I will kill the bastard if I need to."

"Calm down," said Rocky, gently putting his hand on my shoulder.

"No. I can't calm down. Who the fuck is he to decide if I want to stay with him or someone else. That fucking bastard misbehaved with me all the time I was in a relationship with him. I didn't give him one, two, or three chances but so many to change himself and have me as his life partner forever. But his anger and attitude issue forced me to break up with him."

"Why don't we call the police?" asked Rocky.

"If we called the police, he will kill my brother," said Diana, and she broke into tears.

Monica wrapped her arms around Diana's shoulders. "Don't cry. Everything will be fine. Nothing will happen to your brother."

"Monica's right," said Rocky and Sarah in unison.

"I have a plan," added Rocky.

I looked at him in wonder. "Are you sure it will work?" I asked him.

"Yes. It will work," he said.

"What is it?" asked Monica.

Diana stopped crying and focused on Rocky to listen to him carefully.

"Danny doesn't know me," said Rocky. "But if you want, I can introduce myself to him as Sarah's enemy."

"I'm lost," I said.

"Me, too," said Monica.

"Okay. I will go out of this room getting angry at Sarah. I will curse her, spit on the floor here, and threaten to kill her. I'm sure Danny will reach out to me to join me in his plan.'

"And Sarah just has to do the same. I mean she will get angry with me. She will slap me. She can even throw some stuff at me.'

"Please don't throw that lamp at me," he said, looking at me. "Pillow will be fine."

We all cracked into a laugh.

Then I said, "The plan sounds great." I turned to Monica and Diana and asked them, "What do you think guys?"

"He's smart. I liked him," said Monica.

"Great choice, Sarah," said Diana, smiling.

"Thank you," I said.

I turned to him, and told him, "Now I really believe, you have the power to win me as your life partner."

I closed my eyes and neared my lips to him, and he understood my signal.

We exchanged a quick pack of a kiss.

Diana and Monica kept standing at their places, looking at us, wearing a smile of happiness on their faces.
