Diamond Ash ( Completed )

Parting Ways..

I stood there... Staring at carol..

"What??.." she asked

"How did you know i was not one of them?? "

"Because i am not blind... You looked different.. A bit soft..a bit confused.. A bit terrified...you met me the first time and you cared enough to tell me that what my family would do if i die.. Gangsters are not that caring you know... "

At that i actually smiled... And then another question popped up in my head..

"Do you?? "

"No i dont..in that way... But i care about him... Even about the monster version of him... And that version is i think quite difficult to care about..but what matters is that...do you?? Because he definitely does.. "

"I am still finding out... " i replied...

A part of me knew that it was a lie..but the rest told me it was the most sensible and practical and partially truthful thing to say..

"Then what are you waiting for?? Go find out... And don't give up "

With that i rushed off her room and and went into ours... Stefan was sitting on the bed waiting for me.. When i entered the room stefan's gaze drifted from the night lamp on the table to my face and met mine..

"So what now??" i enquired

He looked different somehow to me... His face... unlike almost everytime..was displaying some kind of emotion...like he had a bad news for me..

"So...this adventure ends here..liv... We split ways here.. "

Nooo... This cant be it..

"But you still have'nt got the diamond.. And i have already told you that i am not leaving untill we find it!!! "

My voice was trembling although i wanted to fight him... Something in his voice told me that this time i wont be able to win the argument and stop him from leaving... But i had to try... It was the only chance..

"Yah...i remember that... But i am not going to find that diamond anymore..."

"Are you giving up??...you can't..yo.."

Thank god he did not let me complete the sentence.. Because i did not know how to..

"You were right you know!!... That diamond was a source of me pitying and punishing myself... Reminder of what i could not have.. What i ruined.. And how i ruined it... But today... I have forgiven myself...you!!!have made me forgive myself... "

"So you are leaving me because i made you forgive yourself?? What kind of idiotic punish is that?? "

"No..noo...no.. Liv... I am not punishing you... Don't cry"

I did not even realize my eyes were wet

He stood up from the bed and came closer to me...cupping my face in his hands...

"I am not crying...i dont cry... I am angry... " i yelled back

My dripping eyes told a completely different story..

"I am so sorry livv... I really am... " he whispered..

"Stefan... If you are going to leave eventually...then do me a favour...and leave right now... I am not good at goodbyes... But for starters... I wish that someday in your life ...you actually feel what you made me go through... "

"Wish granted princess.." he hummed back and placed a small kiss on my lips....

I drowned myself in his eyes one last time... Before he left the room... And probably... My life... Forever...

As soon as the door closed behind him i sunk to my knees....i felt horrible....horribly stupid... For trusting someone again... For thinking that love exists...that finally all of my sufferings will end... That i would actually be happy...

But once again life proved me that love is nothing but a fantasy for some time... And then destruction for life!!!...

I gathered up myself... Once again... Promised myself not to cry...be strong... And move on...

And live alone the rest of your life haunted by the meomories of him??

Maybe

But first things first... I had to get out of here.... But how??

I was in vermont... Probably a thousand km away from where i was supposed to be... Without my passport and driving license... My life sucked... I had not changed my clothes in about a week...i looked horrible... And i did not care...plus i had no money!!!!

Just when i was considering the idea of being a begger... I heard something vibrating... I looked around to find a phone on the bed of the hotel...it was my phone...stefan probably left it here while leaving...

I picked it up to find out that i had 256 mixed calls from Aron and Laraa... And aron was calling me at the moment...

I picked up the phone...

"Hello?? Livv?? "

"Hey Aron..."

"Hey aron?? Thats all you have got??you have been dissappeared about a week Livvv.. No messages no calls...I have been worried to death about you... You crazy woman... Are you alright??"

In that instant... When i felt the worry in his voice i realized that the most important relationship in life is friendship... Family loves you because of the bonds of blood...Love changes you... But friends... they are the ones to hold your hand and be with you in every experience through life...they love you...the real you... And dont have any intention to change you...they are the only ones who throw you in a ditch...laugh at you first and then jump in to save you...

"Livv??? You still there?? " Aron's voice brought me back to reality

"Yup...I am in vermont Aron and i want to get out of here... I cant... because i have no passport no licence and no money... Plzz help me out...dont ask questions.. I will explain everything when i see you.. "

"Fine...Aron is coming to your rescue..."

"Ahh.. You are a life saver Aron..i will text you my address.. see you soon.. "

"Very soon Livv... Take care of yourself untill then... you sound exhausted..ok??"

"Ok...bye!! "

"Bye... "
