STAR WISH

Chapter -11

                                                                            TRUTH, WHICH HURTS

 She got up the next morning and she freshened up and wore dress from the wardrobe.

'It's so silent. Seems like Aiden for work." She thought .

"Ahhh! Why are sitting here like a statue? Aren't you late for work.", Olivia looked at Aiden who sat on the sofa. She went to the dinning area. There was some food on the dinning table. Seems like the chef has arrived. Her mom already informed about that. She served herself some food and she saw Aiden sitting on the opposite to her.

"Why you are eyes are so red? Didn't you sleep last night?", Olivia said with a teasing smile. She thought she went extreme with him that made him this disturbed.

But when Aiden slammed the diary on the table. She wouldn't even move a inch.

'I guess I am the most unluckiest one on this universe.', she gulped looking at it.

Olivia almost choked on the food ."What ....why w..why are you having that." She struggled to say.

"Can you pls explain me this?", he said.

'When did it became like this? What should I tell him? Should I just say everything and die? No, then there won't be any way to return. But I am left with no choice now', she said to herself.

"That's just a di..diary.", Olivia shuttered in fear.

"This is just diary. What about the content written inside?", Aiden said calmly which made Olivia to panic even more. Because in the story Aiden has h temper. In the end it was always Laura who can deal with this personality of him. The more calmer he looks , the more angry he is. Oliva was silent.

"I TOLD YOU TO EXPLAIN YOURSELF. OR DO YOU WANT ME TO MAKE YOU EXPLAIN?", he shouted at her approaching her slowly. She stood up tried to make him calm. But he was just a few inches apart from him. She knew whatever the lies she says, he won't believe her. It is better to tell him the truth. She closed her eyes," yes its true. This world is just a novel ", she said hoping this good be the best decision and she explained the characters and how she came and told her about her phone which traveled with her.

" How can I believe you?", he asked her looking at her eyes. She couldn't keep the eye contact because she felt guilty for some reason.

" I can tell your secret that no one knows now. You have either habit of sleep walking in your childhood right. So you tie yourself to your bed to avoid it. No one knows it even your mom or Ravi don't know about it.", Olivia said praying that he could calm down after hearing the truth.

Aiden just threw the vase next to her at the wall. Olivia got frozen and she automatically had tears in her eyes. No matter how much Olivia is strong either physically or mentally but any one can be scared if they see the angry.

He took her diary. After giving her one last look, he just left the house. She stood there crying.

Days went by. And the wish to return back to her world never got subsided. It's been a week since she lastly saw Aiden. For the past week, she never smiled or looked happy. She is very homesick. Alice and Stephen are worried about that. Olivia couldn't even sleep. All she would think was 'What will happen next? What will Aiden do now? Will he tell this to everyone? How will I survive?'. In the afternoon, she got a message from Aiden.

She opened hoping that it won't be a bad news. Her eyes widened upon reading the message.

"Meet me in the Stars & Stripes Café at 5 pm. -Aiden"
