Sapphire's POV

It's two days to A's birthday and the same day I got my heart shattered into pieces 6 years ago. Its been 6 years since that horrible day but I still remember every detail of it and all the heart wrenching memories, like it was yesterday.

I opened the door to A's house, Mr and Mrs Williams were out for their business and I entered the house to give a surprise to my dearest best friend and and my darling Boyfriend by bringing him his favourite chocolate chip cookies. I heard sounds of deep breaths and a girl,maybe it's A's elder brother and his fiancee.

I trudged through the stairs on the first floor and a heart rending site greeted me. There he was, my best friend and boyfriend, kissing Sara Phillips(the head cheerleader of our school) shamelessly and when I realised what I saw,our eyes connected but there was no shame or guilt in those beautiful deep brown eyes I had fallen for,instead it was showing contempt and a strange satisfaction. My best friend had betrayed me and more so, the love of my life has hurt me,so I did the first thing that came to my mind; I ran...ran away from the harrowing scene I had so unluckily witnessed, I ran through the streets where both of us had grew playing, where we had shred countless heartfelt memories and finally stopped in the woods at my secret place of thinking which I had shared with only A, my unfaithful lover...

I remembered his devilish eyes,they were so different from the ones my A had but now he wasn't mine, I remembered him kissing that bimbo and an immense wave of heat went through my spine, all the boiling anger inside me exploded flowing through my magic in the form of flames through my clenched fists, it was then I realised that I had set this part of the forest on fire, burning away the secret space I had shared with my unworthy love. Not only had I begun a forest fire but also a storm,too wild and ferocious for me to render on an usual day. But today was no usual day, it was a day I had lost the most important part of my life, not only my love but also my trust in love. I ravaged a hurricane in my town that destroyed half of the telephone lines and flooded the remains of our not so true love spot...

I replayed the whole event again through my mind, probably an 8th time today when Loren, my colleague at the art gallery came rushing towards me.
"Sapphire!! Are you alright, you look awfully pale"
"Yeah, I am fine, thank you. Why did you come running though?"
"Oh yes,the boss wants our 'new' curator to arrange a gala two days from today for the auction of a few prized pieces that we recently shipped from France"she said with a teasing smile.
"Okay I will get on it, but stop calling me the 'new' curator,it's been a week since my promotion now." I nudged her and gave her a wave as she went away to her glassy cube. Becoming an art curator was the most precious goal of my life but last week when I finally achieved my professional goal, I felt happy but there was a hollowness in my heart, making me realise yet again of the missing love of my life.

I gave a heavy sigh and decided to concentrate on my work; this was the first time I was arranging the gala single handedly,taking full responsibility of its success and I was not going to let anything or anyone get in the way of it. Besides working would allow my mind to rest away the painful memories of my golden past which had ended too miserably and kept haunting my dreams till date.
