Missing Her

Edwin's POV

" It's Crazy." I mumbled myself.

" Hello, Eddie!!" I heard Ellie saying.

" What are you doing here?" I asked and she looked at me weirdly.

" What?!" I asked.

" You are acting stupid. What's happened?" She asked.

" Nothing." I said.

" Eddie!!" She came in front of me hold my shoulder and made me sit on the couch then sat beside me.

" Now spill. What happened to you?" She asked glaring at me.

" Nothing. Go sleep." I said.

She came home today to spend some time with mom and dad as Steffan went to middle East for some business deal. She is irritating me now. Definitely she will come to know that I am messed. It's been 6 months since I last met her. I am going crazy. How can I live without her 3 more months!!! I promised that I won't go there. But I can't hold it back anymore. I swear I will go to Melbourne and kidnap her any soon. I don't know.

" No, tell me." Ellie whined.

" Urrrghh, missing her badly." I said.

" You shouldn't promise like an idiot that you won't go to see her." She said.

" Yeah, me too regretting it." I said.

" Now keep regretting, stupid." She said.

" Why should I regret?! It's only 3 months left. Then everything will be fine." I said.

" Yeah, till then you will get your hair turn white. All of them." She said.

" Silly joke." I said.

" You think it's silly while it's true." She said.

" Well, I don't know. Missing her badly." I said again like a stupid.

" Well, tell me what will you gain not meeting her and what will you lose if you break your promise for once?" She asked.

" I don't know." I said.

" You will lose nothing. Go meet her. She must be missing you too, like you do."she said.

" You go, sleep." I said.

" You are stupid." She stomped her feet and went out of my room.

I sighed. Should I go and meet her or should I not? I was asking myself.

I don't know when I took out my phone out and called my PA.

" Hello, sir." He said.

" Yes, get the jet ready." I said.

" Are you going somewhere?" He asked.

" Yes, I am going to Melbourne tomorrow. Tell the pilot to be ready." I said and hung up.

Am I doing right or wrong?! I asked myself. I dialled her number and called her.

" Hi, babe." She said. I smiled as her voice rang in my ears.

" Hey, babe. How are you doing today?" I asked

" You asked that in the morning too." She said and I chuckled.

" Yeah but it's been long since I asked." I said

" Crazy guy." She said.

" Yeah for you." I said.

" Mr. Stewart isn't it late night there?! Why are you still up?" She enquired.

" I can't sleep." I said.

" Why so?" She asked.

" I am missing someone so damn much." I said.

" That's good that you are missing me no one else." She said and I chuckled. " Now go sleep." She ordered.

" Oh, really?" I asked.

" Really what?" She asked.

" Ordering me?" I asked

" Yes, go sleep. Good night and Good evening too." She said and I laughed. We are in awkward time zone she is almost 16 hours ahead.

" Ok bye." I said and hung up.

Meeting you tomorrow anyway. I went to bed and slept.

Tasha's POV

I was in University. Yeah joined this year. Enjoying University a lot. But today I am getting bored, all the classes are boring. Sucking my mind. I don't know when will I go home.

The class finished and I saw it's lunch time. I slowly walked out and went to the cafeteria. I was thinking about what can I eat now.

" Hey, Tasha?" I heard a girl saying. I turned to see my school friend Tiziana. She is Swiss. She went back to Switzerland when we were in highschool. Now she came back?!

" Oh, hi Tiz." I said. We used to call her Tiz.

" How are you?" She asked.

" I am fine. What about you?" She asked.

" Yeah, I am fine too. What are you doing here?" I asked.

" Well, actually. I am taking courses here." She said.

" Sounds interesting." I said.

" Actually, I was going to attend Medical school but now I think it's not possible." She said and sighed

" Why not?" I pulled her with me and we sat down the table.

" It's a long story." she said.

" Tell me I am free." I said.

" Actually, when I went back to Swiss my parents engaged my marriage with some of their family business associates. But I don't want to marry him. I don't even know him. I so was waiting for a right time and then one day I tried to run away but get caught. They doubled the securities. This time I got a chance when I was going for a camping. I took some money and stole my passport and then came back to Australia. I will be going to New Zealand soon and hide there. There one of my cousins live there. I will hide there." She said.

" But what if your family comes to know you are there?" I asked.

" Soon my cousin is going to settle down in Canada, I might go with her then I will run away somewhere else." She said and I looked at her weirdly. This crazy!!! Why is she running away!?

" Why are you running away when you don't even know the guy?! Talk to your parents calmly, Tiz they must understand you." I said.

" Why am I running away? Cause, people says he is a dangerous Mafia Leader. Can you imagine?! I can think myself to be someone's wife who kills people and who is just a fear for people." She said and I was shocked.

" Mafia!!!" I was surprised.

" Yes, Mafia. Steven Berkeley." She said.

" I don't know him. But I think you shouldn't do it, Tiz. Outside of house this world is not safe for you. Please, come to my house with me." I said. I knew, how innocent this girl is who never crossed her house area now running away like a prisoner???

" No, Tasha. I am fine. It's my fate. Can't help it. I was trying to meet you for a few days. I am really sorry about your family." She said. Her brown eyes were showing how much she meant it.

" It's ok. Don't be sorry." I said. We talked a lot then she was leaving.

" Tiz, please promise me that you will contact me if you need anything." I said and she smiled.

" Sure. I will call your fashion house GS they will let you know. Is that ok?" She asked.

" Yeah, ok." I said.

" Then bye. Maybe some day we meet." She said and I smiled hugging her.

" Bye, take care." I said.

She left and suddenly my mood turned off. I was praying for her safety. I decided to skip classes for today. I got out of the University. I was going home walking cause it's after 2 blocks.

" Hey, Babe." I heard the voice felt I am frozen where I was.
