Denver

21: Gun Shots

Author's POV,

Looking outside the window,
The buzzing streets,
The people gathering,
Smiling.... Talking,
And there she was,
Looking as troubled as ever,
Looking at those people walking around laughing,
Smiling with lots of freedom
Just like her previous self,

But no one can tell what
awaits them in the future...

Just like what other's say,
The future really is unpredictable..

From others view she might be
The luckiest person,
Having the love of a great man,
A great family,
She has it all,
But only she knows how everything took a turn for the worst,
How much it hurts,
How she feels...

Loving a monster is one of the
Sickest feeling she can think off....

Hate -don't know..
Hate is hurtful but love is hopeful,
But without hope there is no love,
There is no hope in this story
Don't expect love from her
From now on....
That's all she knows...

Meriella's POV,

"Ma'am, we are here "

Said the driver pulling at the side
Breaking me from my trance..

"Ok "

I said stepping out of the car,
How can he do this to me,
He warned me saying that,
If I have even a little bit of affection
For my family,
I have to obey him....
Or else he'll destroy them
In the worst way possible...

*flashback*

' don't you dare fight back Ella,
Cause I have the life's of those
In my hands who are dear to you,
I hope you realize that
And don't dare to test me,
Cause you don't want my hands
To slip and accidentally kill them,
Don't you ella'

'You can't,.....
You won't be able to'

'Why can't I Ella,
Don't you think a person who is capable of completely erasing your existence from this place till now,
Won't be able to kill some people
Who are just as small as
Bugs in front of me...

Now....
Be a good girl and select a beautiful dress tomorrow'

*present *

This was the last thing he said
before going away..
His threatening voice
Was lingering in my head
Warning me again and again,

Fate really does like to
play with people,
It really has made my entire life
Like a fiction,
A story for others..

I then went inside the shop,
The attendant looked at the
Guards surrounding me
And then at me smiling
Professionally...

"would you like to take a
complete look at all dresses by
yourself mam,
Or would you like me to
Accompany you"

She asked..

"Thank you for asking,
I'll look around by myself"

I said giving her a small smile.

I then started looking at
the dresses,
Suddenly my eyes got stuck in
One of the best things
I have ever seen,
A whitish grey gown,
The grey color was just like his,
Wait,
Why am I suddenly thinking
About him??

I pushed the thought aside
And glanced at the dress for a while And then walked away...

"So mam,
May I know your pick"

She asked

"That one "

I said pointing in the direction
Of the most simplest dress
I have seen,
Without any designs,
It was plain white..

" Ahh....
Are you sure mam,
Please don't mind my intrusion,
You would look beautiful
In any dress you would wear,
But that dress is too simple
To hold your beauty "

She said with sincerity,
I know it,
But this isn't a marriage
Out of my will...
I knew that the dress was never
Been liked by anyone,
If I didn't think of buying it...
It would continue to be here
Till the end...
But I really want to piss
that monster off
At least this once..

*bang bang bang*

Suddenly there were voices of shooting of bullets,
many people entered with arms
Shooting the guards and others..

"Ma'am,
Please quickly find a shelter,
I'll shield you. "

Said one of the guards

"But but "

How can I leave someone
and run for my life

"Ma'am run "

He shouted and started
firing at others.

I don't know
But all of a sudden
I felt that I became numb,
It was as if someone has
glued me to that particular place,
I was unable to run,
I was only able to hear those
gun shots and cries of people,
I saw dead bodies of people on floor
With blood oozing out of them..

No I can't,
I can't die here,
I have to get a hold of myself,
I ran and sat beneath a table
which had covering all around
Wrapping my arms around my knees
Which I held close to my chest
I was afraid that if they even
hear me breathing,
They might find me
And kill me,
I am afraid

"Where is she?
Did you find his lover? "

"No boss"

"Keep on the search "

Then one guy came near the table
and held the clothing and said

"Found you kitten"

*bang*

The bullet was shot right
in middle of his head,
There was blood all over,
He then fell down,
His lifeless body in front of me..

"Are you alright Ella"

Worry lacing over his voice
His breath panting showing
That he came running here
Concern flickering in his eyes.

There he was,
Holding his hand out
for me to reach,
I quickly held him,
Tightly hugging him,
Like he was my salvation,
What I needed the most,
My only ray of hope...
Taking him by surprise but
Soon he composed himself seeing
My trembling form..

"Shh... Shhh...
It's ok I am here for you ella,
Now no one can hurt you,
Calm down,
Everything will be alright now"

It was funny how he said
no one can hurt me
But he was the one who
hurt me The most......
But ironically,
I felt relieved hearing that...

He then princess carried me
I held him tightly
Nuzzling in the crook of his neck

From his mouth he was whispering
Smooth nothings in my ear,
From his one hand he
held me to his chest,
No distance between us
While with the other he was
Continuously shooting without a halt...

When we exited the shop,
There was a surge of reporters coming towards us..

"Mr Denver ,
what is happening here,
Who's this? "

"Is she the woman you
have affair with?"

"Are you cheating on miss Frisca ? "

There were many questions...
Ruthless ones...
Dirtying my dignity as each
question passed by...
My head started getting heavier,
Tears brimming in my eyes when...

"She is my fiance"

He said looking directly
right on their face...
Anger evident in his eyes...
Was he angry for me..
