Since birth, everything kept on being taken from her. Her life, didn't seem hers. She kept on being stripped form everything important to her in the most brutal ways.
This time, she had finally reached her limit of being stolen from. Finally, she fought back. As she stood there, holding his hands and refusing to let go, the feeling of touching his skin made her stronger. This feeling, was what she wanted; craved for.
¨Fucking let go!¨
The anger in the girls face, didnt intimidate her anymore. Kirsten kept on holding her treasure, her head staring at the cold pavement.
¨Anthony! Do something about her!¨
She seemed tense and finally let go of his hands as she now made her way to approach Kirsten. In a sudden motion, her hand was in the air; seconds away from meeting Kirsten's face.
¨CLACK!¨
She let out an agonizing scream as Anthony bent her hands and held Kirsten close to him. A prince protecting his princess.
Kirsten was overflowing with mixed emotions. Happiness and confusion was spilling from her.
¨Maggie, take this as a warning.¨
¨Don't ever come near her again, I won't hesitate to break it next time.¨
She scowled and made her way to the black Prius, holding her arm tightly.
¨I'll promise you this, as long as I'm near, nobody will hurt you again.¨
As she stood there, staring deep into his eyes, the cold raindrops on her face, turned into streams as she held unto him tightly. It was the first time, she had cried while holding onto someone.
It felt peaceful, to let out all those stored up tears while feeling safe.
Indeed, he was her saviour.
