He can't seem to pull himself together. He wanted to piece together all the things she would say or do which would link where she was. He only saw one photo of some women but that is not enough, he at least need some address or even a city which could link where she is.


She must have left some kind of clue, he thought. He can't think straight. He does know she came from new york city but it is so big how is he gonna find her. Just as luck wasn't ringing his door, it rang on the television. Accidently, he turned on the tv and there he heard her name. His eyes focused on tv, where he saw taylor in bandages around her head, glasses covering her eyes as she walked with her dad out of hospital.


Apparently, there was something he didn't know about her. She just wasn't normal girl, she is famous. 


He also knew where to find her, now media is fastest than a wifi signal. He found the closest airline which can reach him to her. He doesn't care how much money he would waste, all he needed was her right now.

Taylor smiled at her father, as he tucked her in and sit on corner of her bed.


"You never did this in years as I was growing up," She said. His father didn't said anything, he just kept staring ahead.


"I know you might be feeling guilty but it's okay, I'm happy you're here," Taylor told him, he look at her a smile coming on her face. 


"I can't believe how I treated you, I ignored you, I hurted your feelings, I'm sorry taylor, I'm so sorry," He pleaded, coming near her.


"Dad," A sobbed escaped her mouth, as she came closer to her dad as he wrapped his arms around her. It felt weird for taylor because she never hugged her dad and now she was doing this and it felt like first time. For first time in her life, she was hugging her dad.


"It's okay, it's okay dad," She whispered against his cuddle, he kept shaking his head. 


"Sweetie, God I'm so sorry," He said, he composed himself as he let go of her. He wiped away her tears, she smiled even through her tears.


"I've missed on so much, on your first boyfriend, your first love, your first heartbreak, your first time laugh, I've missed so much taylor and now I'm gonna make it right, I want to know everything," He said, she laughed and nodded her head. She wanted to tell everything to her father, about edward, about his likes and dislikes, his smiles, and the way he makes her smile.


"Tell me about that guy, who made you happy for so many months," He asked. 


"What is their to tell dad?" She asked, looking at her hand. Her mind filling with edward's smile, laughs and cuddles.


"How did you met him?" He asked, she blushed thinking back to the time, when she hated his guts and his teasings and now she just wished he was here, even if he fought with her, she just wanted him with her. She doesn't care if he would talk to her, she just wanted to see him, feel him and cry in his arms.


So she told her dad everything from his flaws to perfect person. How he made her feel, how she felt when he was with her, how he protected her from the whole world and how he didn't care what she was.


At end of night, she cried. She cried so hard, she can feel her tears on her bed, her body weakening and her chest hurting from hiccups and her head swimming in air, of depression coming towards her.


She knew she doesn't need edward, but she wanted him. She misses him more than anything. Everyday is like a punishment for her. She felt her body failing everyday.

Edward took off his glasses, as he glanced at JFK airport, everything was hustle bustle there. There were taxis, he doesn't even have any idea where he wanted to go. He doesn't even had her photo but he does know her name. He asked some people, they shake their head and laughed. So he asked a woman, who just smirked at her.


"So you're also in line of being something of her's?" Edward got confused. "Oh don't gave me that look, you're also fan of her,"


He wanted to tell her, he was everything she had but this new information was disturbing him. Of course, she lied about everything and maybe this is also one of her twisted games. 


He ignored that chatty girl, and started to walk towards taxi's with his small backpack. 


"Where to?" The driver asked, he smiled and said, 


"To central park," Little did he know what life would be taking him to.
