Doubt thou the stars are fire;
Doubt that the sun doth move;
Doubt truth to be a liar;
But never doubt I love."

#Tristan pov#

I was waiting for my girlfriend Sophie in a cafe, when i got a call from Harry requesting me to pick his most special guest from airport. He messaged me her picture on phone. Sophie and i were supposed to be meeting in a cafe today. I knew already she won't come, but i was still waiting, hoping positively. She was always busy in giving other things more time than me.

I put the engine of my car to life, and went to pick my sister's soon going to be husband's Indian guest. I liked Harry very much, he was a very decent man and a perfect partner to my sister. With him my Aleesa seemed so much lively and happy.

She was already waiting outside, sitting over her luggage, a little lost. Her feet tapping the surface and her eyes wandering the unknown country in search of a known person. Harry had told me, she had never went out of her house alone, let alone the city. I thought if Sophie looked the same, while waiting for me this innocent and this natural . But what an impossible thought .

I don't know why but i decided to not disturb her, but just looking at her from distance. So, just like her i took a seat over my car's bonnet and kept gazing at her.

She was wearing an ankle length light coloured flared skirt, don't know exactly what colour it was, just like other male, i was bad too at judging colours, but it was somewhat between ligh pink or light peach, matching with a white plain t-shirt, and a blue denim jacket over it, a bit oversized making her look cute. She had black brown mixed long hair, and they were tied up in a pony tail. She really was beautiful.

After half an hour, she finally made a move and so did my eyes with her. She went to a small ice cream parlour, and after a moment she freezed as if something hit inside her with a lot force. I went there, and she was holding out something that looked a lot like money, but of different country, and i then made a guess of whole situation in mind and paid for her, and it hit right.

When i told her, i had came to pick her and i expected her to get mad at me. I was there for 30 minutes already, and i knew she had noticed me too.

But she just said " i was waiting for you" her voice was soft and her tone was normal and not what i expected it to be like.

She looked more graceful near me, but she barely looked at me.

The ride to apartment was quite, neither did she spoke nor did i, but it was a comfrotable silence. When she looked Harry she ran to him, and started crying. Her crying was not, i missed you a lot type but different, she was crying heavily as if she was carrying a lot inside her soul and with that familiar warm touch she lost it.

She then met Alessa, and Alessa gave her a sunflower boquet. When she came to me for collecting her bags, i noticed she was wearing a locket with a sunflower pendant. They might be her favourite flower.

#Sia pov#

It was my next day, i woke up at a very odd time, it was 11 a.m. I was a morning person and would awlays wide awake at an early hour. But yesterday flight got me very tired and i got rid of that exhausting feeling by sleeping for a very long time.

Harry and i talked of our childhood memories, our families, about people whom i didn't remember much, and also about people whom he had forgot. Alessa was sitting close to Harry, listening to us with so much interest. He was interpreting things to her inbetween, as now and then we were talking in our language, since emotions are better expressed in mother language only.
And she was listening , with a feeling of learning more words. They both looked really cute together.

Whole day passed by talking, laughing and eating. Harry told me, how he wanted to celebrate every day with Aleesa, and decided to do a ring ceremony only with there close people.

"Sia we'll be going to work also, we have a very important project to work on, can't afford taking days off " harry said to me. Harry and Alessa worked in same office, the same place, where there love story began.

"Oh" i said

" I'll take you to the city tour after some days" Harry said.

" But don't worry you won't get bore, you've to do the preparation for our ceremony" Alessa said instantly, flashing a cute smile.

"I ....but i don't know places here"

"Tristan, will help you"

"i don't now what exaclty I've to do"

" I'll write down the things" i was happy to see how friendly she was.

"Amm okay then" i agreed to her, why wouldn't i?

"Today take rest, we'll start from tomorrow" Alessa said while picking her purse.

"Plus if you wish to go anywhere, tell Tristan"

"Amm alright"

"Okay then see you in the evening" they both hugged me and left for there work palce.

I took a bath, got dressed up in a jean and a white t- shirt. Half a day was left yet, and i had nothing to do. I heated the already cooked food, and made tea by myself. It took me half hour to made it, not that i was doing something special to it, but was searching for the things in not so known kitchen.

I took my food and tea, and sat over a beautiful couch. House was all silent, also Tristan was no where to be seen and i didn't cared enough to look for him.

I switched on the T.v and my phone also. Harry did some settings to it last day, and now it was working. When i opened it, it started buzzing continuously with so many useless notification, there was a call from Dad, Diasy and Sam ..... what from Sam too?? And some messages from him as well.

Why the fuck was he troubling me now, why can't he just leave me in peace now?
I texted my Dad and Daisy first, telling them I've reached, and was fine.

Then opened that mutt's messages.

Sam: i miss you sia

Sam: i won't let you go this easily.

Sam: i know you still love me.

There was a picture sent by him too, it was from our first date, i was sitting close to him, with my face lying over his chest.My face got red, with anger. That fucking twat was getting on my nerves, first he cheated me and then instead of feeling sorry, he was only troubling me more. I got hot headed, seeing what a shameless person he was. Then i did, what i wasn't supposed to, i just banged my phone to the floor. This was expected as i didn't have Daisy there to make me calm.

I was standing there quite, looking at my phone, not phone now, but the scattered pieces of it. I was focussing at the floor, thinking things with absent mind. Then i saw two feets, i looked above at the body and then at the face. His face was bit blurry, then i realized i had tear in my eyes. I turned around immediately , hoping he didn't see my watery eyes and red face.
