Reflections Of The Past

"I have to leave now" Iris straightened her long skirt and was ready to leave

"But it's just 9. It's not that late. I can drop you home." Edwin offered not wanting to be alone missing Stella all over again.

Ashamed of herself, she kept her head low and in a teary voice she admitted, "I have to go."

"You don't want to go?" he asked her although he knew the answer.

"I never wanted to" she said her voice nothing but a slow whisper.

"I wish I could hold you back and never let go." He said softly

'Nobody wants to live a life of a prostitute. Who would? I'll take her out of it.' Her repeated in his head 'But I need my time to settle things first.'

The new business he had planned for both the girls was only a rough layout and he feared of things not working out?

I took a deep breath, "I will drop you off"

"No" she denied abruptly, her eyes staring her feet "Don't let me stoop that low"

"let me escort you to the cab then?" he quickly removed his wallet from his back pocket

"please don't" Iris begged

Edwin nodded sitting again dejected and disappointed "One more wine please" he ordered as he watched Iris exiting the doors of the diner

Iris feels like she was falling from a huge cliff and it wasn't a terrifying fall; she was flying.

She was smiling as she wasn't landing on the bed of roses, the smooth, soft, bright and beautiful petals are welcoming her.

Just as she was about to reach the ground she noticed that roses are guarded with thorns.

"I love Edwin" she shouted and then cried "but love is not a bed of rose it is a bush covered with thorns. I can see it and feel it from a distance but I can never enjoy it or touch it."

She cried bitterly as she stood in front of Edwin "What if Stella wants to take off from your relationship?" she asked "What if Stella cheats on you?" she stared at his expressionless handsome face, "Would you for once at the least consider me?"

She wondered how she got the courage to speak the world, her heart beating wildly "each day you admitted that you were in love with Stella the situation was exactly synonym for me as I too was falling for you every hour, every minute and every second that I spent with you."

"Tell me Edwin Tell me" she was crying loudly now"

"Honk!!!!! HONK" the loud noise startled Iris

"are you alright ma'am" the cab driver asked.

Iris realized she had dozed off on her way to the hell hole

She wiped off the sweat drops cause dby her nightmare and wondered what would have Edwin answered her if it wasn't a dream.

Instead her conscience jumped in to answer her

"NO!!! You are dirty, untouchable, you are a whore, no good for Edwin. Edwin is an angel, he deserves better, much better than a F##ked up whore, he deserves a sylph- a fairy like Stella. He deserves Stella and both are made for each other."

She blocked her emotions on her small walk to the washroom and removed her long skirt to display my hotshots and netted stockings.

She opened her ponytail to let her dark mane flow down.
