HER LAP OF LUXURY

CHAPTER 8

"You must want to spend your life with yourself first."
~Rupi Kaur

EVELYN'S POV-

After 3 years~

"Our personal helicopter will pick you up at 6 tomorrow. Sleep well and don't be late in the morning." Diana shuts the door of my room declaring about my trip to North Carolina.

I am visiting my Aunt, who is a single mom. She has two daughters who are 4 years younger than me. I like those girls. I haven't met them from a long time. Since my 12th is over, dad asked me to go and spend some good times with them.

I felt relieved knowing that I will be finally out of my house. It's like I am caged here. Not allowed to go out anywhere alone. Parents accompany me everywhere. That girl who is restricted from hanging out with friends, I am she. I have been a very private person from my childhood. Barely had friends. Only that one person was close to my heart, Evan.

He left me hurting me so much. I wasn't much mature to understand but his words had surely hurt me even at such a young age. He came out of a sudden, but left again without giving any reasonable explanation. He disappeared leaving me a scribbled note on my desk.

I will miss you. No one can ever replace you. Take care.

Goodbye.
~Evan

I have no idea where he is or what he is doing. Every part of me misses him like hell. I wonder if he ever thinks of me.

His bestfriend,Steven,never answered me with the truth whenever I asked him. I am tired of running after people. So many sleepless nights thinking about him. Today is one of them. Many mysteries I am bounded by. Who could ever understand my emotions. He left whenever he wanted. Like there's nothing. I don't even know if I am sad or angry. Waiting for him to give an explanation or not. How can my heart even forgive him for that.

Even Andria, who is currently dating Steven tried asking him about Evan and why he left. But still I never got an answer. Andria is my friend who is the closest to me till now after Evan. She knows everything about me and also helps me in my times of sorrow. She accompanies me everywhere as I am way too innocent to handle people out here and she is completely aware of it. I love her for this. And this years, she has become like my sisters. We don't share a relationship that tied by blood but we do share a relationship that is tied by hearts. Sometimes, you can see how even your own people don't understand you while people who don't relate you do well.
