"15 February..." Cally readout.
The diary cover was quite delicate and pages were yellow loosely held by the cover presenting how old it was. Looking at how carelessly it was jotted down anyone could imagine that it was written by a kid.
"Luna has gifted me this diary, she told me to write in it I think to improve my English I'll write in English in it rather than Chinese." Carla read further under her breath.
She turned some of those foxed pages, "Today Luna brought some bread from the market, it was tasty. Luna is the best in the world. I love her." She read in a low voice.
Repeatedly reading the name 'Luna' made her wonder who she is so to find it out she turned more pages,
"25 February,
I miss mom and daddy, if only we hadn't shifted here then they would've been with us."
"But now that Luna is here I'm not scared anymore. She loves me the most."
"28 February,
Sarah opens her eyes and finds herself lying on the floor of a darkened room. Her hands are tied and so are her legs while her mouth is stuffed with a piece of cloth. As she gets adjusted to the dim atmosphere around her an unknown voice welcomes her,"All awake now?" The voice asked.Sarah struggles to sit upright,"A-a don't stress yourself. After all, you're my daughter in law."Sarah's eyes widen and she looks in the dark in front of her as she realises to whom this voice belongs."Don't be surprised. I know everything about you and Niall." Flora replied."Uh! Wait, you might be surprised because it's me!" She added."But...according to your statement to the doctor, you remember everything, don't you? Then...you're still surprised? Interesting..."Flora was sitting in on a chair just in front of Sarah crossing her legs.Sa
Earlier in the afternoon...Jeremy ran to the Carter Mansion only to find Flora missing. He knew that Flora is connected with Sarah's incident. He was so eager to find Sarah that he barged into every room while Drake tried to stop him.Drake finally lost his temper and when Jeremy came out of the last room of the mansion Drake yelled at him, "What the hell are you finding?!"Jeremy held Drake's collar aggressively and pushed him towards the wall,"Where is she? Where did she take Sarah?" He kept yelling at Drake."Who?" Drake was baffled"Your mother! Where is that b*tch?!""Mind your words!" Drake yelled and jerked Jeremy's hands."I know you're worried about Niall, but mind your words she is Niall's mo-""Shut the f*ck up! I know very well, what kind of mother she is!""A mother who conspired against her own son! You call her a mother?!""What
Cally kept seated at her place and smiled slightly as she heard the answer of Leo."How do you know?" She teased him."Wha-what?" He stuttered."See I heard what you said."Leo sighed in frustration and stood up to go."What was the result? Did you pass the exam?" She questioned and Leo got froze at his place."Ho-how did you-""I read everything from that diary of yours and I know that you're that boy who wrote the diary. You used to live in China, correct. But it's just the half story, and...I know who can tell me the other half."Cally stood up and went towards him. She stood in front of him and looked at him who was looking down."I know that you're in pain, but trust me only if you'll share it you can get out of here, of the darkness.""So you've to tell me, what happened? Did you meet her at the riverbank?"Leo kept looking down while shivering a little, he
Something has been bugging Drake while he drives his way steadily towards the court. He knows that all these times the sins his mother has committed can never be cleaned but still he wants to be punished for what his mother did.He looks at his mother who has been looking outside the window, in the reflection he can see her smiling over something which makes him go fierce."Why are you smiling?!" He yelled making her flinch.His eyes stuck in the road looking at her from time to time.Flora looked at her only child who she loves from the core of her heart, "Son-""I am not!" He yelled again.Gradually his eyes flood,"Why you hate Niall? Why did you-" His vision is getting blurry due to his tears he is holding back."Why did you ruin his life, why?..." the question came out as a whisper.The only road which leads to the court has arrived now. Behind Drake's car, Jeremy has been driving too with Sarah who is restless in her seat.
Cameras started to flash as soon as reporters arrived at the scene. Emma ran towards Jeremy while Niall just knelt for Jeremy who had just now shot down."Jeremy..." Niall's eyes flooded with tears.Jeremy looked at his friend who is almost about to sob."You- were right!" He stuttered."I-" Niall's voice crackedJeremy's breathing is unstable..."Your brother..."He whispered."Your brother...was right too..." He said."He- protected...yo-" Jeremy is struggling now.His chest aches as the blood keep flowing out. Niall tries to cover his wound and stop the blood from flowing, but all in vain. Nothing works..."I was so...busy with being angry with both of you...forgive me..." Tears flowed down while his voice became as low as a whisper.Jeremy slowly kept his hand in Niall's which was on Jeremy's chest."Don't- don't feel guilty, you...had your problems..."
Everyone's at the hospital, while Flora was taken to the police station. She is not allowed to meet his son until she confesses everything.Sarah is sitting on a bench beside Cally and Lisa, in front of an operation theatre waiting for Jeremy's to come out and inform them about his health. Here Emma is roaming around the whole corridor as she is worried. Both Drake can Jeremy she can't afford to lose anyone of them. One is her brother and the other is her best friend.In the silent atmosphere, someone comes running,"Sarah!" Anna exclaims as she approaches her behind him is Ray.Anna hugs Sarah wipes out her tears."I heard whatever happened, how's it going right now?" Her concern can be seen on her face.Ray stood behind Anna his eyes wandering, searching for Lisa. When Sam else came there too.As soon as he came Lisa stood up,"Lisa!" Sam exclaimed and she hugged him tig
Everyone stood up as the doctor came out after operating Drake."How's he?" Merylin asked as she went to the doctor in a hurry.The doctor removed his mask, "He was severely injured and his neck his broken. We had to perform some surgeries to stitch his forehead which had many glasses shreds stuck on it. But fortunately, he is alright. He will be shifted to the VIP room and then you can meet him but only two at times. Try not to crowd the room."As the doctor went Merilyn took a breath of relief, she was made sit on the bench by Hannah. And everyone present there sighed in relief too.Soon after five minutes, more Jeremy's doctor came out too."What happened, doctor?" Emma asked."We've taken out the bullet from his chest, but we can't say anything still. it will take at least twenty-four hours to regain his consciousness and if still he doesn't then...he might suffer from a coma.""No!" Emma yel
Cally ran towards Leo's room but was stopped in middle."Why?!" She yelled at the nurse."Doctor he is going crazy...no one's allowed to go inside." She kept her grip tight."Nurse Mable? Where's she?""She...is not here. She is missing." The nurse replied."I have to go inside!" She yelled and tried to get rid of her grip but instead, she was held even more tight with the help of make nurses."LET GO! HE NEEDS ME!" She yelled but no one dared to do so.Until Ray came,"Let her go!" He yelled and they got their hands away from her, shuddering in fear."Cally you can go inside, I'll handle.""But sir-" Whoever interrupted was glared by Ray.Can't went inside and was again welcomed inside the darkroom, she felt the same she had felt when she had entered it the first time. She was scared, she didn't know where he was standing and this time the room more good than ever.
