"Those butterflies in my stomach are dead now" she said.
"That means you haven't met that person yet." He smiled.
"I once did and that's what killed them inside me. Killed those feelings inside."
"Love is kind. He was not."
~♡Thank you all in adva...
This might be a sensitive concept for some of you loves. So please read it on your own decision.
“Pl-please stop it!” she begged for what it seemed to be the hundredth time with the ounce of energy she had. He mercilessly rammed into her back and forth with a stupid smirk on his face as if testing her strength. “It hu-hurts.” she sobbed for the last time as she fainted. She didn’t know what he did to her after that, but she woke up in the middle of the night after that incident. For the ‘she lost count’ time it happened, again against her will.
After all this time I loved him for what he was, yet he does this.
Am I just worth this?
The thoughts swam in her mind after she saw a completely unknown figure in the mirror, with multiple bruises some of them became permanent; on her wrists, neck, and back; swollen and bleeding lip. She was disgusted. She felt impure and destroyed. She repeatedly splashed her face with the cold water as if it would wash her thoughts away, as if it would sooth her pain. The physical pain could be overcome the pain that was emotional was unbearable.
What went wrong?
Why it all started?
After taking a hot shower her thoughts cleared as Ivy went to living room and flopped on sofa drinking water. She switched the TV on hoping for some distraction only to be surrounded by her past.
---Flashback---
Two years ago
“Oh my God. You look stunning. I-I don’t know what to say. My daughter is getting married!” Ivy’s mother exclaimed while her father was on the verge of tears. As for Ivy she was very excited to marry the love of her life. She tried hard not to ruin her make up by crying (out of happiness of course. I mean how you will feel if you marry the love of your life. I can’t relate. Ha-ha)
She had far more dreams of achieving things in her life as she knew her love will always support her.
Everything started a year ago (yes again flashback. Please bear with me.)

“Hey Ivy! Spare some time for me you rude girl.” Ray said scoffing as they walked the corridor of their school.
“Okayyy. What you want to do?” Ivy asked
“Let’s go to this café which I discovered yesterday.”
They both walked together talking about this and that. For Ivy the world completely vanished when Ray was with her. She would without any hesitation talk about anything because she knew Ray would never judge her. She would keep blabbering he would listen to everything.
“Ray I feel so comfortable with you even though we meet recently”
“Haha that’s my vibe I guess.”
She playfully hit his arm as they drank coffee together. How much Ivy wished to be on a date with him.
Ray walked her home (till her street) and flashed a smile while waving goodbye. Ivy couldn’t help but smile at his cuteness all along her way to home.
10 00 pm
“I wanted to say this to you personally Ivy. But the time I spend is never enough to do things with you.”
Ivy smiled like an idiot as she read the message.

Babygirl?! What the hell! What’s with him suddenly!
Ray was one of the friends with whom she felt comfortable and happy. He has been always supporting her back. But these questions were unfamiliar to her, especially from Ray. She was feeling insecure. She immediately shut the phone down and went to sleep.
Why would he ask me those? It was creepy. I should avoid him.
But she didn’t know was that she was completely in love with Ray and that she would do anything for him.
She drifted to sleep and woke up at morning and started to get ready for school. After her morning routine she ate breakfast then on her way out grabbed her phone. Then she remembered the night’s talk and that Ray would come too. She was perplexed as to how to face him. But then she remembered she did nothing wrong and went on.
She was nothing like a great student, acing subjects or any sports activity, anything, all she did was to write. Write for her-self and to her hearts content. She was happy with the small group of friends who always supported her, Mia, Daniel and Ryan. As for Ray, she felt like he was across the seven oceans. Ray was already a destined business man as he was to take over his father’s company. He had everything a person should have; looks, style, brains, money. Only thing he wanted was a qualification and it was not that much difficult for a man of his status to get one.
She was welcomed by her friends when someone tapped her shoulder. “Hy Ivy!” “Oh! Hai Ray.” Ivy tried to keep it cool though she knew she was blushing and she also knew Ray noticed it because he was smiling. Why would you blush? You idiot.
Ray turned to her friends saying, “Please let me borrow Ivy for a moment.” They all nodded and Ivy followed him.
“Sorry about yesterday Ivy. I went too far. Too too far. I don’t know what got over me” Ray apologized. Ivy felt bad and said, “Its ok. But please understand I don’t exactly like this. I only would show the full me to my love who is committed to me and not anyone else who passes by.” He reassured her with his smile. How she wished to see him all the day. And she also knew she had no chance.
The bell rang as everyone rushed own the corridors to their classes. “I gotta go!” Ivy said as she joined her friends on her way to classroom.
“Then all I have to do is to make you fall. FOR ME.” He thought.
