Once out of the Sophia's room, Lisa submerged her face in her own palm and set
about to be in tears. Samuel contemplating at her for a long period of time, went close by her and held her in his warm arms, placing her head in his shoulder.
"Sophia was this vary broken Samuel, when uncle aunt left this world. The blank gaze she held at that time were strongly implying she is broken to the core, as if she is all alone."
Lisa spoke in between her sobs.
"I don't know Samuel, what have transpired there in between the two, but now Sophia is holding the self-same look, as if she is all forsaken again. She already had started to fall for him. Why would that son of bitch smash to smithereens her trust?"
"Calm down Lisa. This is how life is supposed to be, sometimes it's a unwrinkled sail and at times it is full of fraught. I am not saying that what occurred to Sophia was a pleasant able or should have happened but, the deprivation she is accommodating herself to today will have a hand in her reviving back a lot stronger in time ahead and subsequently sun will shine brighter on her side."
Samuel did his best to calm Lisa down in most suitable way. After few minutes Samuel recommended Lisa of them returning back home.
When they were out of the building, Lisa spoke to Samuel. "You may take your leave, I want to carry on being with Sophia for the night."
"But Sophia wants to be isolated for the time being."
Samuel tried in his finest way to account for, but Lisa spoke again "I won't go in. I'lII stay out-of-doors."
"And what's the use Lisa, if she will come to know that you stayed here because of her she will for once again feel distress."
Lisa considered things put forward by Noah for sometime and letting drops of tears fall from her eyes, she spoke "I feel so sorry for her."
"So do I, but let's not escalate her anguishment, if we are not able to haul down it." Nodding her head in agreement, Lisa walked in the direction where Samuel had parked his car, both of them droved off without even distinguishing devil in darkness.
Just after Lisa made her way out of Sophia's room, Sophia climbing down the bed and closing the door, she discarded Noah's blazer and every other piece of cloth. She went in the washroom and stood beneath shower, letting freezing cold water hit her body and the ugly marks he had left all over her chest.
As the cold water hit the ugly bite where Noah had sank his teeth in her collar bone, she screamed and yelled in pain and get down to cry her eye's out, with her tears passing from sight in between the water dribbling down her hairs and forehead. She let out all her pain and mental trauma while crying out, screaming loudly, not just for molestation she went under but the way she has never been treated ever but also the pain of loss she is front onto, the man she liked, she felt his hearth around, is the man who deceived her, never had slightest liking for her but was with her just for her body and was a pure lust for him.
For an hour or so, she drenched herself in the glacial water in the frosting weather and getting out of washroom she felt tired from the frightful circumstances she had experienced.
Getting on a loose off white night gown, she get on the bed, to have some sleep with her still thoroughly wet hairs. Still sobbing and crying over her misfortune, she fell fast asleep. Just as moon was registering her sleep full of nightmares, a tall figure intruded in the room and slumped in the chair present in the room.
"You refused me Sophia, you slapped me, you kicked me."
After a pause remembering about something and clutching his jaw he spoke again "But these are not your mistake. You looked at me as if you are disgusted of me, you walked out of room even when I tried to stop you and above all you let another man carry you when rejected my touch. Why so?"
Thinking for a moment he spoke again "You should have not."
Getting up he walked near her and brushed his fingers through her cheek that was stained with dried tears "I'll have you, any other way it takes me, legal or illegal, even if I have to marry you, I'll. But now I won't let anyone other than me to even have a look at you."
Looking at her, to be specific ogling at her he again begin to loose his mind, he spoke again "You are mine, for once and always, mine to look at, to touch, to devour."
Having a pause for a moment, being in a deep thoughts he smirked cunningly and spoke again "To love.. "
After saying his part, Noah ran his long snowy fingers through her damp hairs and sat beside her taking captive of every bit of her beautiful heavenly features, though in discomfort, still most artistic, he would have eternally got glimpse off.
Spending good amount of hours with her, he came out of apartment, just when she set in motion to stir in her sleep.
Driving back home he arrived back to his room and standing in balcony, he instanter begin to notice her absence, the way she talked to him, her beautiful alluring smile, her innocent expressions, utterance and the whole of her.
Lightening a cigarette, he smirked mentally picturising, 'Soon darling, soon you will always be in front of my eyes to consume you anytime I wish for.'
Sophia wake up as she felt some kind of uneasiness. And after gaining consciousness from her not so comfortable or at ease sleep, first thing her olfactory senses registered was the lingering heavy cologne of someone she can put finger on.
Instantaneously when she felt compassionate towards whom it be owned by, her pulsation rate heightened many folds and she walked in the direction of main door but found it perfectly locked.
It might be her imaginative faculty and conceptualizing so, she moved herself to the kitchen-diner area to have herself a glass of water.
Sipping water down her throat and soaking it wet, she installed herself in a stool and unwantedly tears fell down and she again begin to cry which turned to her loud wail.
As she extended her hand towards her chest to calm herself down, she felt the pendant dangling over her slender neck and her cry come to standstill.
Looking down, she discovered the same pendant that Noah had hung around her neck and every other moment where she lived to the fullest with Noah came running to her mind, leading fresh tears forming and when she was not able to contain them they fell out of her eyes.
Grasping the pendant in her fist, Sophia pulled it to break it free from her neck, scratching herself in the process and threw it along with cord to unknown direction. Hiding her face in her palm, she inclined her head in kitchen slab, sobbing and crying. Again she fell asleep this time in a completely different place a different position. When the first light of the day hit the earth's surface, Sophia woke up with suppleness over her neck because of bent sleeping position and pain along with it because of the scratch she herself caused.
Sighing in her condition, she walked in her bedroom and freshened herself up after cleaning her home.
The pendant set she threw last night, picking it up, she stored the it in a pouch with other precious'.
She hoped to keep it firmly so as if ever they cross path, she could return it back to him. She don't want to own his single penny after whatever have happened.
As it was Sunday, she had a day of rest so, after making herself presentable by hiding the bite marks under scarf and dressing up the deep teeth indentations she has over her collar bone, she went to the Church to find her mental peace and cope with the deep rooted trauma she had recently experienced.
Riding the bus still in state of daze, she set foot on Lighthouse Church and settling herself in a pew, she folded her hands and closed her eyes, but as soon as she did tears started to soak her cheeks.

She didn't had any complaints neither did she had any extraordinary desires to ask for but she also didn't wished her first relationship to turn this ugly, where she feels disgusted of him.
Spending an hour or so there, nearest to almighty, feeling her heart getting light, till her heart content, she got out of church and she went straight back to her apartment. Finally getting there she called Lisa and just after few rings went through, her call was answered.
"Hey Sophia." Lisa responded soon after answering the call.
"Hi Lisa, what are you doing?"
Sophia asked Lisa, straight coming to the point.
"Nothing in particular."
Lisa responded very cautiously.
"Can you come over?" Sophia asked.
"Of course, I'll be there in five."
Lisa replied in a gap of a breath and immediately she hanged up the call and walked in
the direction of parking area to have the car ride to Sophia's apartment. Getting at Sophia's door, Lisa inhaled a long breath before ringing the bell and after a few minutes, door shot open and Sophia came in view.
Lisa looked at her face and only one thought crossed her brain, she had lost the spark and glimmer she used to carry over her eyes. Still she is as beautiful as ever, but she had lost the shimmer she carries in her face, same way the last she time she did when she lost both her parents. The red shot eyes with puff around them and her sad expressions clearly spoke her long time crying condition.
Still in this condition she passed her best smile, trying to show that still she is the strongest. Lisa engulfed Sophia in a tight hug and when break her free Sophia spoke still smiling.
"I am totally fine Lisa."
Lisa looked at Sophia and found a still smiling face but this time eyes filled with tears
to the brim.
Placing her warm palm on Sophia's cheek, Lisa replied "Of course, you are."
And passed her a warm smile.
"Get in."
Both of them went in and sat on stool present in the kitchen-diner area and talked for
a moment of odds and ends and finally Sophia brought up the topic of previous night. "Lisa, I want to talk to you about something." With a quiver in her voice, she spoke. "Yes Sophia, please." Lisa replied in her softest tone.

After a pause of two to three minutes, Sophia spoke.
"I-I can't give you all details about the last night."
Sophia stammered and a lump formed in her throat while travelling the memory lane
of last night.
"But the thing is, I and Noah are not together anymore as we don't see love and relationship in similar way."
Sophia finally spoke clearing her throat and trying her best not to stammer further and break into tears.
Lisa let out a heavy breath and spoke "Are you alright."
This time Sophia didn't opened her mouth to reply, rather she just nodded her head
smiling.
"I know you already fell for him Sophia. And to be harassed by someone you like is totally a nightmare."
As soon as her statement hit Sophia's ear, her eyes moistened and she begin to cry out loudly. Lisa embraced her in a warm comforting hug after standing up from the stool.
"It's okay Sophie, calm down."
Separating herself, she made Sophia look at her and spoke again.
"Sophia, sweetheart, we have to have different experiences in our life, sometimes it's because of our own decisions and sometimes it's like a calamity, we don't have control over it. We can't let these dark clouds hover over our life and stop our progress." "I know that must have been the worst experience you would have ever had but Sophia look at brighter side. You fought him, you kept your dignity and willingness above everything. You proved consent is most important thing in this world either be it anyone."
Listening to her words, Sophia's cry ceased but still was weeping and suddenly she
spoke "Lisa I want to shift to my parent's house."
Lisa kept on looking at her in daze. She had finally agreed at what she was asking
Sophia to do from past year.
"I can't spend time in this house. Everything reminds me of him. I don't want to remember him anymore."
Holding Sophia's face high in her palm, Lisa spoke with a smile "I'll help you how so ever I can. Just tell me when ever you want to get shifted there."
Sophia lightly passed her a smile and rest of the day was well spent chattering and eating take always by the two best friends.
Next day with a fresh mind for a fresh start, trying to forget that fateful night and more categorically Noah, when she arrived the galley, she went straight to her cabin and as soon as she unfastened the door, she found it to be decorated by flowers, flowers that pushed her back in the memory lane, bouquet of white daisy's, same as it was past few weeks back, causing to increase pace of her heartbeat, feeling nostalgic. Recalling someone in particularly exceptional.
