Chapter 2: Torn

Zayn's P. O. V.

"Catherine!" I screamed from the top of my lungs. As I saw her body slowly turned into ashes on my arms. "please don't leave me!" I plead to her, but I only got hollow stare from her once beautiful, sparkling eyes that resembles the peaceful blue sky, now it's nothing but a pair of lifeless blue orbs...

As I watched helplessly as her body, her face, her long beautiful hair, that I once known, and loved, fade into ashes, my body trembles, my soul felt eternal numbness, and my eyes cried rivers of tears...

They took her away from me! The only person that I loved, the only one that I put my full trust on, the only one who gave me strength each day, my life, my soul, my reverie... I will never forget the day they took her away from me...

..... September 13, 1893.....

I open my teary eyes from my nightmare, no it wasn't a nightmare it was a memory, a memory that I have long buried from the depths of my soul, but somehow today, it found its way to the surface...

When I checked my phone for the time, I realised how that horrible memory decided to haunt me today, it's just exactly ten days... Ten days before the 118th anniversary of that dreadful memory...

Somehow that day manage to resurface not only the memory itself, but also all of the painful emotions that comes along with it, the pain of losing someone, sorrow, hatred, longing, sadness, despair, and fury...

As I propped myself for a bath, to get ready for the long day ahead of me, I was flooded by questions, seems like they run through me just like the water run down my body...

I heaved a deep sigh... I wonder what does she look like today, is she living a good life? Does she have a loving family? Love... How about a partner? I wonder if she's already in love with someone else, does he love her with all of his life? I hope she's being treated right...

Will I ever get the chance to see her again? Will I ever get the chance to see her beautiful blue eyes again? Will I ever get the chance to see her smile again? Will ever get the chance to run my hands through her soft hair? Will I ever get to hold her soft hand again? Will I ever get to kiss her again...?

I wonder what does she look like now... Does she still look like the first time I see her ? Angelic, divine... How about her voice? Will I ever get the chance to hear her sing to me again? And her laugh... Damn... Her laugh that beautiful sound that can calm the most horrendous storm down, her laugh that can bring the sun in an instant, her laugh that can send you into overdrive...

I finished my bath that was full of unanswered questions... I quickly dressed myself for the day, I decided to wear all black. Black shirt, black skinny jeans, black rubber shoes, and of course black leather jacket. It symbolises my mood today, mourning...

When I reached the school grounds, I suddenly felt a bit uneasy like something unexpected is going to happen... But i just dismissed the feeling, I thought maybe it's just because of the dream I had earlier.

But on my way through the hallways to go ahead to the locker area. I stopped dead on my tracks, my eyes widened in surprise, my jaw dropped to the ground, my hands trembles, my whole body shivers, and my tears threatens to fall.

There standing talking to the dirty wolf, is the love of my life! In all his divinity! Wait! He's a guy now? But I can't be wrong, those blue eyes, I know a lot of people has the same colour of blue eyes, but those blue eyes that I love were different amongst the others, they stand out because of their brightness, their spark, the kind of spark that will send your stomach explode butterflies.
