Impossible (TS)

chapter 2/2

One day Lilly was awakened by many cries, she wondered what could well provoke them. A few minutes passed then a woman arrived at the door of her cell, she broke the bars and approached slowly Lilly who had risen in the meantime.

- Miss, how long have you been here?

- Several months I would say but I'm not sure.

- You are the only prisoner here, finally you and another young man. He told us who you were, so we did some research, we didn't find your parents, I apologize.

- They died a year before I was locked up here, that's probably why you haven't found their trace.

The woman felt extremely embarrassed to have recalled bad memories to the girl.

- It doesn't matter don't worry, I'm used to not seeing them anymore.

- Oh okay, so miss Lilly, are you coming with me?

- I don't want to stay here ...

The two women joined another man who was in the company of Keith in the hallway at the bottom of the stairs. Lilly was surprised to see him here as pale and thin. He was the young man who had been found here too.

The two people who looked older than Keith and Lilly left in front, the two young people followed them slowly from afar.

- You must be happy to be free? Keith said then.

- Yeah, it's always better than staying here, but what are you doing here?

- My father quickly understood that I was bringing you clothes, so he decided to lock me up too. Agents came, having finally realized that we were absent, and they locked up my parents.

- But are you going to live here all of a sudden?

- No, I'm going to catch up on my year and then I will see well afterward, by the way, you also have to pass your year.

- No kidding? I thought I had it by being locked in the basement of a madman!

- You're still so annoying!

- And you still suck!

Lilly left to join the two agents who had taken the lead, leaving Keith alone behind, lost in thought.

A few months later, Lilly returned to her establishment to finish her studies and be able to pursue her dreams, although in reality she abandoned them all now wanting to go to another country and start all over again.

When she learned about returning to the class that she should not share her room with five other people but with only one, she was delighted but when she knew with whom she would share her joy quickly left. She now had to hang out with Keith every day.

During the first weeks, the two young adults spoke to each other very little and avoided each other as best they could, which was not easy since they had the same lessons.

After several weeks, ignoring them had become impossible, the teachers took pleasure in making them work together, having fun watching them bickering all the time.

One fine evening in the Lilly bedroom, lying on her bed, thinking about her relationship with Keith. They were still fighting as much as before but more in the same way. At first, they were mean to each other with pure wickedness, now this was no longer the case, they were mean but kindly. Unwittingly they took care of each other, they got closer, and that everyone had noticed, everyone except them.

In her mind, Lilly then thought of the possibility of falling in love with the beautiful brown that is her roommate, at that thought her cheeks tinged with red. She had to admit it, which was unimaginable in the past had become a reality.

- Why is a tomato lying on a bed? Said Keith making fun of the shade the young woman's cheeks had taken on.

Lilly didn't answer and started the bedroom.

- I'm going to get some fresh air. She said simply before closing the door behind her. Keith, who had long ago started to have feelings for the young redhead, had the feeling that Lilly loved someone.

The idea made him shiver, he could not accept that she was with someone else when she did not even know the feelings of his comrade.

He decided and left their room to join her to admit her feelings, he knew that Lilly often went on the bridge over the lake to find herself alone.

When he arrived on deck what he saw broke his heart, Lilly was crying with her head buried in her arms, she was sitting on the ground, knees bent.

Keith slowly approached her and stooped down beside her, placing a comforting hand on her back.

- Why are you crying? He asked cautiously.

Lilly only answered with a groan between two sobs. He then took her in his arms, stroking her back, he knew she often cried at night, but he had never seen her, he had just heard her.

- I don't want you to cry ...

They stayed like that for a good ten minutes, until Lilly's tears stopped flowing.

- Why do you care so much about me, you should have left me there ... she breathed then.

- I couldn't have left you alone when I love you. He replied, cheeks pink with discomfort.

Lilly did not know what to answer so she remained in the arms of the one she loved for a while until he moved, he moved away from her to come and kiss her tenderly. He expected to be repelled by the beautiful redhead, he was then surprised when, on the contrary, she responded to his kiss.

When their oxygen started to run out they reluctantly parted. Keith gently took Lilly in his arms and went to their room, he then put her in his bed and came to lie down beside him.

History does not tell us what happened that night, but their future became happier. When they finished their studies, they both left to live in a country very far from their own to get away from their bad memories.

A few years later Lilly had become pregnant and Keith had asked her to marry her. Their daughter owned her father's eyes, and her mother's hair.

The poor girl did not know that her family was surrounded by a curse, so the story continued indefinitely.

The loss of her parents, sadness, hell in the cell, joy, love, a new family, then premature death.
