The Mystery: Story Of Love And Faith
                       When Brian saw Elley's angry face. He started trying to make her understand. He made her calm; but Elley wasn't responding as he was expecting.                       Meanwhile Natalie started laughing to calm down Elley; but Elley tempered and she started seeing Natalie mysteriously. So, first of all, Natalie stopped laughing then she started explaining her point of view. She breathed deeply and said to Elley, " Oh sista, how naughty you are! I was just kidding. Now stop ignoring me. How did you think that I will forget to bring chocolates for you? " " Umm... What do you mean? " Elley asked and narrowed her eyes." I mean nothing. Just give me your hand because here is your favourite cadbury and other candies. " Natalie said and handovered all chocolates to Elley. " Wow! You naughty devil! You made my day Natalie. Thank you so much for this. " Elley said excitedly and without wasting time she started eating Cadbury. Brian was looking both of them. So, he insisted Elley, " Elley, dear. Please, give one candy to Natalie also. "" No, I won't. " Elley replied." Why? " Brian asked." Because it's her punishment. How could she lie to me? She lied and laughed on me. So, I am punishing her. Now, I am sured that next time she will not do such things again. Neither to me nor to anyone. " Elley explained her view.                        Then she started enjoying her treat again and on the other side Brian and Natalie also started smiling when they saw Elley's happy and satisfied face.                        They three were having nice conversation and spending nice time together. They were happy and smiling continuously but suddenly door of that room opened. A dog entered in the room and ran fast towards Elley.                        As soon as they saw the dog, their eyebrows raised in excitement and they all started smiling but suddenly Brian looked at the door and his smile automatically faded; because he saw someone at door whom he didn't like much.                        That person was a young man, whose age was among thirty five years and he was absolutely looking pretty handsome and well dressed like a businessman.                        He had olive skin, green coloured eyes, attractive beard and mysterious smile also; but as he entered in the room Brian didn't feel well.                       Unexpectedly, he stopped smiling and his face converted into impassive. In short, Brian was little upset by seeing that person in front of his eyes.                        Apart from this Elley was completely ignorant of Brian's inner feelings. Rather she didn't even notice that guy. She was happy by seeing the dog. So, she was busy in playing with the dog.                        Natalie noticed that Elley had started playing with the dog. Obviously she quickly thought to leave. Hence she said good bye to Elley and Brian, then she left the place and went back to her home.                        Later, when Natalie went outside the room the young man (who had entered in the room with the dog) started talking to Brian.He said to Brian, " Hey, any updates Brian? Is Elley fine now? I know, I rarely visit here. So, I can't spend enough time with her. I apologize for that but believe me bro, in every single moment I pray for her betterment.                        Also I trust you so much that one day you will definitely cure her; but sometimes I feel like she is not trying her level best even under your control.                         Anyways, I have to neglect negative thoughts. So, tell me, do you have any idea that how much time she will take to recover? Because I really feel helpless.                        Brian, literally I am shattered into pieces. Her abnormal acts made me worry about her. It hurts when I see my fiancee is behaving like a little kid.                        It hurts to see her in this situation. Moreover, I am fully scattered. It has been two years and still she is not recovering. You know, How painful it is! "                        On the one hand that guy (who had mentioned himself as Elley's future groom) was expressing himself and on the other hand Brian was listening his words carefully.
