He was just few steps away from holding me, when I immediately took steps back too fast. I saw him approaching me, but I didn't wanted to face him just now.

I turned and ran really fast, I knew if he wants, then he will surely catch up with me in no time but he stopped just after a step or two, listening something in distant.

I took the opportunity And ran as far away from wood as possible. I made it to beach shocked that I was not out of breaths even after running half miles.

I slowed when I was sure he was not following me. I looked around wondering why he suddenly stopped coming after me.
With my brain so heavy with the things that unfolded in front of me just in a blink all I could think of right now was to go back home, where I always belonged to. I felt like everything will fall into place if I hide myself from it. But that was just not me.

I didn't wanted to ask Leyla for help and Ted, he is not even in the list. So I took a cab back to home.

Fortunately mom wasn't home she just left note for me:

Sorry sweetie, I am busy with exhibition, I won't be able to join you for dinner, why don't you ask Leyla for Night in? Keep it in mind Night "in".

"Sure"
I mumbled throwing the letter back on dinning table.

I went in my room to take a warm shower. But with the volcano inside me even hottest temperature of water didn't relaxed my body. I knew I would look like a red cat afterwards, but honestly there were more things to concentrate on.

I revived the whole episode that happened today at beach. The way Ted behaved, they way I felt so uncomfortable between both of them.

How I suddenly now know that my whole life was a lie. How I fell for a werewolf. How I always had this instinct about his reality which i kept ignoring,

And the worst part was I still didn't hate him, I don't know actually, may be I am scared or shocked but definitely not hating him. I just couldn't hate him for what he is. In fact now I was more sure that I love him not just the simple way. But the kind of love that could change the entire meaning of life making your life more meaningful.

Right now all I hated was not knowing and it hurts how I didn't even bothered to approach him, But could I have known about it if I had done so?

When I didn't even knew about the people I have known since my childhood. I hated how a guy I knew since childhood now suddenly seems a stranger to me. I could feel the warm tears searing in my eyes thinking of how my best friend...

And just then I heard a disturbance in house. Unlocking of the door, and sound of steps climbing stairs, It rang alert alarm in my mind. I came out of shower getting on a bathrobe, I got out of bathroom and picked up a vase on dressing table just when the door opened...

" Emrale. "

Leyla called slowly, and looked at me with eyes wide open.

I kept the vase back on its place.

"I don't wanna talk about anything please."
I told her, warned her actually anger ready to pour out.

"Fine, but you just can't walk around ready to beat up everyone around you."
Leyla said. Very cautious to not put any joke in her tone.

"I wanna stay alone for a while just leave me alone."

I told her this time not caring to hide any anger.

"Now that is not fine! You know I am not gonna leave you alone. We can - "

Leyla began as if things are good enough to be explained.
