Priceless

  *Daniel’s pov* I tried and tried to find something worthwhile in Rose’s cabin. I didn’t find anything that seemed out of work. I don’t know if I could ever call her Aubrey. She will always be Rose for me. Rose. Delicate, gentle, and strong. I needed to know what secrets she was hiding that was troubling her. I would not think twice before taking all those horrible things away from her at any cost and hiding her safe from the entire world. She deserves calm and peace. She deserves everything. Just as I get searching the last cupboard, the shrill ring of my phone alerts me. My stomach twists when I see it’s Sophie calling. I had this weird feeling nagging at me that I pushed down not so long ago. “Is everything okay?” are the words that drop out of my mouth just as I answer the call. “Dan- Daniel, um,” she takes a breath in before continuing, “um, I think you should come here-” I end the call before she says anything more. This can’t be good. The familiar feeling of p

Have you ever watched a movie with a massive cliffhanger and wondered all the year about what must have been in the ending for it? Daniel was somehow in the same situation right now. The moments from an hour ago were resurfacing his mind. He was confused; very confused right now. “Yes, it’s him. He’s here.” Her voice echoed in his mind, re-walking him through the memory. He had returned back to her house after dropping her to ask if she wanted to have dinner with him. He was confused when he heard those words. Who was she talking about? And to whom? “Yes, I understand, sir,” she spoke up again after a moment. After a brief time, he walked in through the open door. She turned with an impressive speed and with a scary expression on her face. Just as she recognised him, her face turned from scary to scared. She was still in her white gown, her hair now messier than before and her face make-up-less which just made her look prettier than before if that was possible. But right now, D

The Halloween Night

  Parties weren’t Daniel’s favourite part of the holidays but right now, with Rose on his side, he would be lying if he said that he wasn’t looking forward to them. Rose. Rose, who beautifully graced with her mere presence, was on Daniel’s mind more than he’d like to admit. The complete car Daniel didn’t say a word still mesmerised by her beauty. It was when Rose started a conversation that he spoke up, “So, you invited everyone from the office?” she asked. “Uh, what? Yeah, yeah, um called- I mean invited everyone. Though it was at a short notice I think most of them are coming,” he replied with his eyes fixated on the road. He did try to steal a glance at her while turning or looking at a car behind but no one had to know that. When they reached the destination, Rose’s eyes widened upon seeing the place adorned with pumpkins and other spooky stuff. The place, obviously, screamed richness buried in it. Just as Daniel quickly hopped from his side and opened the car’s door for Ro

  Have you ever been in a situation where your heart wants you to do something but your brain tells you the logical reason not to do so? Like you are on a diet yet you crave ice-cream. Daniel felt somewhat similar right now. Rose had not been to the office for a couple of days and even though she never was the one to be seen all the time, he missed her presence and he would definitely not admit it if you’d ask him. He called her twice each day with the same question of ‘How are you today?’ and every single time she had replied with ‘Better than the last time you called.’ Daniel’s Halloween party was now a day later and currently, he was on his way to Rose’s house. It had been four days since he had seen her, it surely had felt longer. After some small talk, they were now talking about the things happening in the office. Well, he was talking and she was just listening. “…Sean had been pretty mad about it,” he said while she nodded in response telling him to continue. “So, that’s
