"Harley, I know I don't always listen to you, I take advantage of you all the time. You only ever wanted the best for me but I never saw that...I'm sorry" tears fall from her eyes like a million rain drops in one tube, "I never meant to make that wish, I want to take it back but I can't, so please Harley, please...you have to remember me, I'm your sister- you are my sister, you are the only thing I have left...please, REMEMBER ME!" she intertwines her fingers to Harley's, hoping the touch helps but the latter, with a hard stare right into the eyeballs, looses her hand from Maia's,
"I'm sorry Maia but apart from the fact that we are neighbors, I don't know you. Leila is my sister. Maybe I look like yours but I'm definitely not. I would never forget my own sister." Harley spins on her heels to leave but cold hands hold her back,
"no! no! She's not. I am" Maia turns her teary eyes to Leila at the left corner, "Leila, help me please, tell her please! You know the truth just tell her...please," Harley swings her head to where Leila is standing,
"I don't know what you talking about!" Leila says, (inside her mind) «I am just a magic fairy accomplishing what you wished for in the first place. I can't help you... sorry»
Maia turns back to Harley, glazing deep into her brown irises, tears fallen from hers, painfully slow.
"Harley? Remember Me!!!"
*SLOWLY BEING EDITED*
Zane had a special mission to accomplish. No one could find out that he's undercover. No one. But with those hazel eyes and her smart mouth he couldn't stay away from her. She was making him feel things he never knew it was possible. Yet bringing her into his world was dangerous especially because of her sudden connection to his case.
Katherine has a baggage full of insecurities and trust issues. She never had an official boyfriend and being 24 that's socially unacceptable. The danger those grey eyes emit should scare her away. He was trouble and she knew that but she couldn't help it. The attraction she feels towards him is scaring her. Is it worth taking the risk?

"Can you cook?"
"I can"
"Good, what about laundry and cleaning?" I nodded.
"Fuck Angel, you're like the perfect woman and you still want me to be your friend" He joked and found myself laughing.
"Because I am the perfect housewife?" I asked arching an eyebrow.
"No, because you are the perfect combination of smart, beautiful, and skillful." I blushed at that and I wanted to look away but one of his hands stopped me and turned my face towards him.
"Get used to hearing compliments because you're going to hear them often in the future. Now, about my offer..." He gave me an expectant look.
I thought for a while. I still wasn't sure it was a good idea but I liked working at the shop and still wanted to work there for a little while.
"Alright, let's do it," I said.
"Now? Here? Damn Angel, first the fiancé thing, and now this. For someone inexperienced, you sure move fast" He joked and I laughed.
