YAYA'S POV...

"He killed my mom."

Blinking away those uncherisable tear drops, I gazed straight away to the moon. The vibrant rays of the full moon that gleamed the whole portico area, the serene water of the pool that barely touched our feet, brushing against each other's skin. The warlocked atmosphere, seemed too strong for the time being as it took me aback to my childhood, when there had had no moment that doesn't accomodate my mother's memories within it.

I really miss that era when I used to be the most carefree about every single material in this cruel world, being in her arms. The era, which gave me a combination of thousands of fairies in one single human being.

My Mother.

Out of nowhere, my iris got filled with some tiny unwanted droplets. I swiftly diverted them to him, only to find his strong gaze. ready to pierce out anyone's mind.

"Just tell me what he did!"

His calm voice was enough for sending cool shivers, down through my spinal nerves. A little did I know that it was nothing but the calmness before an impending storm.

"It was just an another hard evening when I already faced another war between my parents. It was just past by it, that a cold war was going on. Although, I was used to it but still somewhere, it pierced my heart to the core. Huff, being a kid. I always longed for having a happy family but ig The Divine was not pitiful enough to give me that."

I sensed a cold thumb, made it's way down my cheek and that was when I realised that I was in no state to refrain myself.

He pressed his lips lovingly against my temple, rubbed my back in such a soothing manner that involuntarily manifested only pure love and support. I wonder, how could I distrust this man. A stringe of guilt crept over my heart all of a sudden and to the amuse, he seemed to be cognizant with it so easily. He smiled softly and tugged me close to his chest.

"Just don't let it bother your heart anymore. I will always be with you. For now, continue."

I nodded my head while my heart profusely perceived relaxation at his soporific words.

"It was just the eve before my 6th birthday. approx 8:30 at night when my father returned home with an another women, clinging around him. That women claimed to be his wife who was pregnant with his child. And that was it, my mother lost the battle of life to a major heart attack. It just came as a major shock to my kiddo brain which fell blank in no time."

A deep sigh left out my nostrils as I gulped the huge lump that has been formed in my throat since long and let my head rest on his well-built shoulder.

"After she left me, my father and my step mother were kind enough to sent me for school but never let me socialize much. They never allowed me to persue any of my dreams but always prioritised my step-sister. When I crossed 18 yrs, I told them about my wish for becoming a psychiatrist & expectedly, they never agreed. According to them, I can never succeed in that field and so should try to become either an employee or a school teacher. Still, I was determined to somehow push myself upto my aim and henceforth, I started attending the psychiatry classes in my college, without their acknowledgement. It was going well, untill my step-sister got to know about these and revealed them to my so-called parents. You know what happened after it!."

My breaths went much copious as those dreadful memories reshuffled my mind and tried to rejuvenate my wounds again.

Neither he tortured me physically but mentally & so with my mother. That creep murdered her. But, still he is roaming all around with no sign of repention.

It was then, realization stroke me. I was actually inundated in a tight hug by my man while I was literally a crying mess till.!

Fine.

I lost it.

I lost the war to my heart.

I broke out.

I don't know why my heart feels so relieved, whenever I cry out. Rather, I don't know, why I feel so sleepy, just after my heart gets over with relieving itself?!

As per my acknowledgement, I was never a sleep-head but since I ever cried, I always felt sleepy just like this current situation.

"Forget about everything. Just sleep now. I love you!"

These last words hit me differently today. It re-filled my heart with an unacknowledgable pleasure, an unimaginable peaceful feeling.. before I let the deep slumber enclose me.!

"Ya, I am still confused. Confused with a question.!"

I chuckled at his bewildered yet cute face and kissed softly on his cheeks. "And, what's that?"

"How did you managed to live in that hell? As u know that I left my family just on the age of 15 due to this same reason then how could you?!"

"Well, not same reason but a bit different man! Mine was a step-mother and yours, step-father."

"Yeah. But how? I wanna know."

His cute questions, nonetheless resulted my lips to quiver for a small smile. With an inchmeal, I headed towards the balcony, which was till luminescent with the bright beams of the white moon. Comprehensibly, I discerned his steps following mine. No sooner did I stopped near the railings, his mischievous hands made their way through my waist and tugged me closer.

"Those last words of my mother, protected me." I cuddled a bit closer to him & closed my eyes, worshipping the tranquility all around.

"If you ever discover yourself,
Amidst of the imperishable depression:
Gaze at the moon-
For a time being;
You'll rejuvenate
A new era
of the solemn inclination..."
