Light to my Darkness

"Adelia......why won't you trust me? I promise, I didn't do anything with her!"

She whirled around, eyes dancing with fire. "Why won't I trust you? Jase, it was so obvious you slept with her! The way you looked at her, it was full of love!"

"It was in a brotherly way!" I protested.

Tears sprang to her eyes. "Up till now, you're still denying, huh? Well then. Don't worry, Jase. I did something far worse than what you did."

Panic engulfed me. "What? What did you do?"

She stared at me, voice laced with bitterness. "Stayed home and trusted you."

_____________

Jase's life was full of tragedies. First, his twin Sister died in a fatal accident. His parents loathed him, and wished he was dead. Depressed, was the only emotion he had.

Jase had learned not to give satisfaction to those people who put him down. He became a shell of himself --- cold, emotionless. He was no longer the happy-go-lucky kid that bounded around when his Sister was around. That Jase had been killed, Long time ago, by Jase himself. Could he save himself in time?

Adelia had been hated by her Father since young. Her Mother had passed away in labour; just to make sure Adelia was safely born into the world. Her Father constantly abused her, which explained the marks on her skin. Adelia became cold, and shunned away from strangers, especially men.

The only friends Adelia had were Casey and Aaron. However, even they could not break through the walls Adelia had built over her heart from all these years.

______________

When Adelia and Jase met, they hated each other. They did not know how much in common they were; they did not know how great a couple they would be.

However, over time, they begin to find out each other's past. Soon, they became friends and slowly, began to let each other into their lives.

Will they realise their love for each other? Will they be able to recover the old Adelia and Jase?
