On their way home they parted ways and said their "see you laters," the sun was now setting, throwing pink and yellow dye on the blue and yellow canvas. "What could possibly go wrong on a peaceful day like this? " Thought Ari.
Yet there was a storm heading her way. Reaching home a lovely tended horse was latched at her front door, "I wonder who it is? Perhaps another marriage proposal?" Walking in with cautious Ari approached her front door.
Nearing the door she heard sniffing noises, curiosity got the best of her as she push opened the door revealing a stranger, her mother sitting down crying and her father standing around the dinner table.
"What has happened!! Who are and why is my mother crying ?!" Shouted Ari rudely at the man who she just met.
Speaking very calmly the guy said" she is not your mother as you might've known and neither is this your father." Making gestures very calmly, "your biological parents have been finding you for a very long time and hopes that you will go back." Hoping he was finished, he continued , "I hope you are ready to leave now for we haven't got much time left for this day. "
Tears of anger threatened to drop from her eyes but she will not cry in front of an intruder. She builds up her courage and will her self to speak knowing very well she can't speak properly when she's trying not to cry. "LEAVE!!!!" She shouted.
This startled everyone and she turned and left the room, crying, the tears could no longer be held back. "What a sick joke,"she thought closing the door behind her. Sobbing endlessly into her pillow. While she was crying the man said "I will pick her up early in the morning please be ready by then." Saying this he left, this was a relief to both parents.
Throughout the night the wind was cool, sitting by the window relaxed Ari as she stares at the endless stars thinking how amazing it was. Suddenly a odd sound caught her attention and placed her gaze on an incoming figure, frighten she ducked down the wind still blowing into her room.
"Ari, it's me , Jay " a whisper came. Peering out the window it was truly Jay, a smile a appeared on Ari's face.
"What are you doing here? " questioned Ari.
" I couldn't sleep I was thinking too much I guess, so I went for a walk and I ended up here."
" Do want me to walk with you ? " Asking hopefully.
" Sure, wear some warm clothes it's quite chilly ."Walking out along the footpath the walk through the night was so peaceful and sent an excited feel into Ari body making all the bad things that just happened disappear with the wind.
Suddenly Jay slipped his hands into Ari's hand. Walking towards the park they stopped under an oak tree. "Ari I don't want to be regretful in the future, especially for what I am going to say today." A gentle wing blew as he paused "what was happening?!" Ari thought " I l..li... I like you Ari " He quickly said blushing like a ripened tomato. Ari giggled at the sight, how rare it was for Jay to blush, "cute" , she thought.
" Um don't tell me about what's your reply is mow, please ." Jay said quietly
Releasing her hand he told her to follow along towards her home.
