~ CHAPTER 2 - Shades of anguish ~
Emotions is an ocean of memories and nightmares...
One cannot escape it but also cannot avoid it....
. . .
Thunder roared when the man set his foot on the ground. A girl in his arms as their blood dripped down the river. The silence was submerged by the siren gleaming on top of the hill.
His whole body injured as he placed the girl down a tree. His feet dragged him towards the car, which was now thrashed all over. He broke the car window when he saw the smoke coming out of the thrashed car.
There is no way a car would survive when it was knocked down a 900-foot hill. His tears were brimming out of his eyes as he tried to push the woman out. The lights shone down upon them, and the sounds of people trying to reach them reached his ear.
He carried the woman towards the faraway tree as the car blasted behind them. The woman held her baby bump securely despite the fact that she and her family had just been in an accident.
- R...R...Reena?
Her voice faltered as the ambulance and the doctors held her up and swept her into the stretcher. The muffled voices were slight clear to the woman as she held onto her last energy.
Doctor - You and the baby are gonna be fine Mrs. Desai...
The doctors words echoed as tears made their way out. The man held her hand and the other wrapped around the little girl who showed nothing but a cold emotion. The woman reached the small hands and held it onto her big ones.

- Y...Your heart w...will mend R...Reena...Love will mend...S...Someone is born to mend it and save you m...my li...ttle d..dove....

. . .
The sun shone brightly as the girl sat across the small pond among the huge garden with a book in her hands. The wind gusted up removing the hair strands that landed on her face as she swiftly turned the pages of the book.
She was the definition of a goddess except that goddess wore an elegant expression but she didn't. Her face showed the expression of ice cold. Her thoughts were muffled by the unfair memories.
- Reena!!!
The sound echoed like a thunderbolt as she looked up at her sister who wore a frown expression on her face.
- I've been calling you for the past five minutes....Where were you?
She asked as she fold her hands to her chest and narrowed her eyes. Reena sighed as she stretched herself before standing up, grabbing the books that was scattered all over.
Reena - Nothing you need to know Ayush.
Her voice came cold as Ayushka sighed. This was not new for the Desai sisters, everytime Ayushka takes a step closer to her sister Reena always backed away. As if she was something that needs to avoided.
Ayushka held Reena's wrist when she about to leave the library. Reena stilled but her expression were blank. Ayushka sighed as her eyes welled up with unknown reason.
Ayushka - Why do you avoid me?
Her voice came out in a whisper as she held onto her tears. Her breath ragged as her tears made their way out and down her cheeks. Her grip on Reena's wrist tightened when Reena didn't turn moreover look at her or showed any expression.
Ayushka - I don't care what others say but please.....please don't avoid me....I beg you Reena Desai....
Her lips wobbled as a sob left her mouth. The years she put up with Reena's actions are long gone. And now she just need her....Her sister whom she loved with all of her heart.
Ayushka - I Don't care about your Alexithymia or whatever....Just don't make me feel that I'm invisible to you....please Reena....
She pleaded as Reena turned, her expression stayed cold. Not even a single emotion was seen in her eyes. Ayushka bit her lip when Reena reached her hands and removed it from her wrists. She turned back and left the room without saying anything.
' If only she knew....'
The maids and guards bowed as Reena walked across the huge hallway to her. The doors closed behind her as she placed the books down the wooden table in her room. The room fell silent as she sat on her bed, her hands reaching towards her necklace as she twirled it.
No one understood her especially someone like her and she never expected anyone to either. But...When it comes to someone you love with all your heart it hurts like nothing. It's not like she doesn't want to show any emotion It's just that she can't.
The heart that belonged to her, the heart that was filled with every happiness and love was not with her anymore. That shade of her left a long time ago and she didn't know how to retrieve it. A long sigh left her mouth as her thoughts drifted away to somewhere that felt like home....or a certain person....
. . .
- Update...
The deep voice echoed through the phone as the person holding it sighed at his boss's command.
? - You're becoming obsessed...you know that right?
- I didn't ask you to update my status....hers!
? - So you're admitting that you're obsessed with her?
A low curse was heard on the other side with a growl along with it. The man chuckled as his grip tightened around the tree's thick branch.
? - Just so you know I'm literally sitting on a tree to watch your 'love'...
He pressed the word love as he chuckled and held onto the branch above him and jumped down landing on the other side of the mansion. He huffed and ruffled the leaves that stuck in his hair.
? - You could just say it to her you know? Just the fact you're the one that sav-
His voice cut off by the growl that was heard the other side.
? - Well she spent most of her time sitting in the garden and reading a book then went to her room before having a slight sister time with her sis....and now she's in her roo-
He sighed as listed the things that Reena did the whole day before stopping at the middle.
- What's wrong?
? - She's getting hurt bhai....You need to say it soon.....She's hurting not only herself but the others around her too....
His voice faltered as he remembered the times Reena got lost in her thoughts as she looked out into the distance as if she's waiting for someone....someone close to her....
? - I'll call you back...
He sighed not being able to accept the things that happened to both of them and how they both hurt each other. He hopped on his bike as the engine roared he clicked his watch as they blinked and showed the location of Reena.
He nodded and drove his bike before stopping at a bar. The bouncer looked at him and bowed before opening the door which led to a place that filled with music and the smell of alcohol filled his nostrils.
He looked around searching for a certain person who was busy wasting herself. He smirked as he took steady steps towards her...Just like a predator preying on its feast.
- Gotcha....
