"Return of his soul"

Chapter 8

Miller Schwarz pov:

I opened the door for Sezal. She came out, her long, shiny hair flowing with the wind. "I wanted to bring you to the beach, as I said in class today. I owe you an apology. I hope you will relax here," I smiled. "I guess the apology is accepted then," she chuckled with excitement.

My steps guided her through the beach, and she was walking with her eyes closed. I think she was enjoying in the fishy smell of the beach, the loud sound of the shore, and the fast-slapping wind.

"Something Terrified me, I wanted to bring you to a place where we can talk easily," I said. "What is it?" Sezal stretched her arms in the air.

"Here's the bench, we can sit here," I pointed. We both sat. "I want you to stay calm and listen to me," I leaned back on the bench. "Miller you're making me worried" she positioned her body towards me.

"You tried to attempt suicide 2 months ago?", I gave her a concerned look. "How  do you know that", Sezal's eyes got widened and she stood up. "You sneaked into my private files?", she was about to slap me but I held her arm to stop her.

"Sezal! Calm down". I said in a polite voice. " you intrude my privacy and asking me to calm down? What kind of jerk are you", her jaw muscle tightened. 

"Now It doesn't matter how important those files were, I just want to know what made you hate your life so much that you didn't even think about your parents". I said rubbing my back.

"You don't know anything about me, Miller", she pushed me and wiped her tears. "Sezal, that's why we're here! I want to know everything about you, tell me! I won't judge you", I ran hand through my hairs and gasped.

she lowered her head and sat on the ground. I sat beside her. "My parents never wanted me. When my mom was pregnant with me, they were preparing for a boy.

 unfortunately I came to this world, dad wanted to threw me away but mom saved me, later on they tried again for a boy but my mom couldn't conceive and had a miscarriage.

dad left us both. Mom really loved dad. After he left she blamed me all life for their divorce. She stopped loving me, and always acted as I was nonexistent for her. I learned to live by myself".

When I joined highschool everyone bullied me for being broke. I started emotional investing in animals. They were my coping mechanism against pain. Then I met my lovely bird,

His death was last straw on my grief. I decided to end my life although even if I die there is no one whose going cry for me. Unfortunately I was saved. I had been recording all my traumas so one day if I meet dad, I am going tell him, look what you did to your daughter", She looked at me

...............................................................................................

I pulled Sezal through her dress and hugged her. while she was clutching on my shirt hard. we looked in each others eye for a whole minute until a tear shed from her eyes. I wiped her tears with my thumb. 

"Those files were locked with password, how you got access to them". "umm, I hacked them", I tiled my head. "That's a crime, and If I tell this to cop, you could have been in a serious trouble." She raised an eyebrow. "You won't right", I gulped.

"Now you know everything about me! are you going  to use this information against me? Headline Miller Schwarz saved a poor girl" she looked above in sky. 

"Why would I do that?", I freaked out. "Fame! Of course", she shrugged her shoulders. "I already have enough of fame. By ruining someone's life won't make me famous"

"Then why are you taking interest in me?", she sent a confuse look. "I Think, I See my future with you". I made a slight smile, . "Future?" her eye got widened.

 I shook my head. "Miller, we just met", she signed. "The way you look at me with those pretty eyes, Makes me want to burn this world for you?",  I bit my lip and made a slight smile. sezal  gasped with widened eyes.

"Sezal Have you ever fall in love before", I asked with a smirk. "Should we leave? It's too late," she stood up from the sand and ignored my gaze.

"Sure, I wonder if you feel cold," I asked, pointing at her skirt.

"No, it's fine," she nodded.

As we were walking to our car, I brushed my hand across hers and held her hand. Sezal looked at me, and I looked at her with a smile.

Sezal's POV:

I never Thought I would open up to someone, but Jacob was correct - Miller does like me. His  eyes shine when he's with me. After a long time, I felt butterflies in my stomach. 

 I also like spending time with him, but there is a fear in my heart that I don't know is removable or not.

He drifted his car out of the parking. "Oh, sheesh! Miller is Cool ," I bit my lip and mumbled.

"Get in, hazel!" Miller said as he rolled down the glass of the side windows.

I sat in the car. I was sleepy. The thought of what if someone would leak my suicidal video online and my mom would see it gave me panic all day. Now, all I want is long hours of deep sleep.

"Hazel, you're not saying something." he looked at me with concern.

"I was exhausted all day. I couldn't sleep," I said, yawning.

"You can close your eyes. Your house is far, it will take at least half an hour to reach home," he rubbed the back of his neck.

"How about you quietly drive, and..." I smiled with a low giggle.

"And?" He raised an eyebrow.

I think in my mind, and I keep looking at you with my sleepy eyes.

"You know, hazel, you're one of those people who is so hard to understand," he folded his arm behind his head and leaned on it.

He looks cute when he's confused. I want him to know, should I say to him? I took off my heels, folded my legs, I was slowly blinking while his presence beside me keeping me warm because I knew I was safe with him.
