OPHELIA: CHAPTER FOUR

Mathew couldn't believe that the love of his life was under the same roof as him. He was itching to talk to her after the game and it had just started. The 3 periods lugged on and it was finally over. Mathew rushed through his post game interviews and grabbed his phone.

Ophelia underscore Williams. He would never forget that username. He typed it into Instagram and saw her profile was public. He began to stalk her. She had been in New York this whole time, in the same city as him. He saw pictures of her at Isles games and he never knew.

She never told him. He was standing next to a concession stand in the arena which was on the way to the parking lot. He was beginning to stress about all the times she was in the same place as him and he never realized it.

Mathew put his phone in his pocket and paced a few steps, running his hands through his dark hair.

"You know, if you keep doing that, you're going to pull your hair out." The soft voice that he knew and loved spoke to him.

A voice so sweet could only belong to Ophelia Jane Williams.

"Ophelia."
