So, Sebastian's life got smoother day by day. He missed Silvestra sometimes, of course, she was his mother, who raised him alone, like a Prince. I never moved on over her accidental death. Silvestra's diary was appalling and hurting for me, she wrote that she vanished but I wonder if she's still wandering around. I never trusted her, and when I did, it was already too late.
Sebastian was now 19 and he was in a relationship with Peanut, Sheriff's daughter. Sebastian was an introvert just like Silvestra, he didn't have much understanding with us. He usually spent his whole day in his room doing his homework and science projects. Every year, he got an award in Red Feather Science Exhibition, the biggest inter-school Science Exhibition in New York. He passed out from High School, and easily got an admission in College after ECAT with efficient scores. Now that he was old enough and independent, he got the custody of Silvestra's property. With Sheriff's consent, he sold Silvestra's car and bought a new one. Sebastian had an interest in sports cars.
Every night, when I missed Silvestra, I used to sit under the stars and think about her. She used to do so... when she missed me. I know I couldn't love her like she did but I couldn't get peace. Only Sebastian had access to her art gallery. I visited it sometimes, when I missed her. I was sorry. I was sorry for what I did to her. I had no choice later, but I did her wrong. I wish I never had come in her life. She just loved me. And that was her mistake, she loved the wrong person. She deserved someone much caring. But, as she always said, it's all about fate. Who can fight about God's plans?
"Dad... Can I come in?"
"Oh yes Sebastian!"
"Dad I wanted to talk about something."
Sebastian came to my room when Tilda wasn't at home and Skylor was in his room."
"What is it?"
"Dad, I wanted to ask, mom never told me, why did she love you so much?"
I was silent for a moment.
"Look, love is a beautiful emotion, and it's totally natural. Even I don't know why did she love me so much, even when I didn't love her back."
"And why didn't you love her back?"
"Because I was already in love with Tilda, and it wasn't fair to leave Tilda."
"I can understand that, but you didn't even call her once in so many years when she left you?"
"I'm really sorry for it. I wish Silvestra had forgiven me."
Sebastian's silence always reminded me of Silvestra, how much she loved me silently. He quietly walked out of the room.
Skylor sometimes asked Sebastian for help in studies, and Sebastian did his help. Sebastian always loved his brother and he never misbehaved with Tilda. This was what happened because of an audacious mother's teachings. And here I am, Sedrick Stark, in guilt of losing a devoted lover for a whole lifetime.
