Derek comes dangerously closer to my face , fear clutches my heart but I don't show it up on my face . Derek pulls me by my wrist and he throws me onto the bed . Derek then cages me between his arms . I closed my eyes in fear . I could hear Derek laughing and saying, " Oh....what happen lady, Are you scared . Let me now show you what I am capable of .You will now know what happens when a woman hurts a man's ego" . His strong grip was enough to freeze me in one spot . No matter how hard I tried to get myself free , I felt his grip getting tighter on me .

Tears trickled down my cheeks as I thought that now I am screwed up . But then I remembered the cell phone kept on the coffee table of my room . I opened my eyes , I aimed my target and Bang !!. Well I hit a hard kick at the pervert's crotch and then pervert Derek rolled over the floor groaning in pain .

I quickly ran over towards the phone and I made a call to Sam . Within a fraction of seconds Sam barged inside the room along with the police . I then exclaimed " This pervert was harassing me ! ". Derek retorted " She is lying! first she invited me to the room now she is falsely blaming me !".

Sam then said " Inspector ! throw him in the jail . Beat him black and blue!". Derek lost his cool and he shouted on Sam " You boy ! you have planned to trap me with this girl but listen this will cost you beyond imagination . You are taking revenge because I eyed your sister, damn she is so hot in the shower !". Sam punched Derek right in his face and then Sam thundered
" You monster now you will rot in the jail because now you have yourself confessed your crime. Jerks like you have shamed the whole mankind, you even didn't bother about the fact that you were our friend ! You did what not even a grave enemy would do to me . Don't call yourself a man because real man respect women instead of snatching their dignity . Don't you ever show us your bloody face again , Now get lost ! ".

Police hand cuffed Derek and then they dragged him away . Sam and I hugged each other in joy and happiness . Finally Derek the evil head is in jail . Stacy and Aunt Jane are also happy because they finally got justice .

After spending five blissful days we returned back to Goa. These 5 days were daunting for me as I have imagined serval times about my departure in my thoughts . My heart wants to ditch every law of nature that separates me from Sam but my logical brain is giving me several reasons to go back to where I belong , one such reason is my little bro Willy .

Sam's parents are coming home after 3 days and I plan to escape this world exactly after 2 days . Sam has masked his inner feelings so I don't know if he is feeling remorse like me . The last two days of mine here,quickly passed away in watching movies with Sam and Stacy . Poor Stacy does not know that soon I will escape in the thin air as if I never existed in their life . Within short span I have created memories for lifetime , I have saved my aunt and Stacy, thrown a criminal behind the bars.

I now even have a lover in my life but tragically I will own my first love story as an incomplete yet beautiful tale , I thought to myself and tears trickled down my face . I was letting my tears flow freely when a hand passed me a handkerchief . I took that handkerchief and I thanked Sam for offering me that handkerchief . I wiped my tears then I looked Sam with a smile filled with sadness .

Sam sensed my sadness and he said ,
" My love you are feeling gloomy but you should be happy that you will soon meet Willy and your parents .You will enter your world where new opportunities are waiting for you". I hoarsely said " But Sam a world without you will feel so dark , how will I live without you, tell me ". Sam said " Just come with me and I will answer all your questions ".

I nodded my head and I walked behind Sam .We walked some distance then after walking some more steps we were in a place unknown to me . I looked at this place and my eyes bulged out in pure amusement . This place looked similar to a place straight out of the movie Avatar . I exclaimed, " Is this for real Sam !". Sam replied, " Yes this place is for real . I wanted to show you this place" .

Godly god this place is heaven with the a beautiful lake , a dark forest with trees and thousands of fireflies in the air . With open mouth I blankly looked at the beautiful fireflies and lake water . Tonight it is new moon and no moon is shining in the sky .But still in this darkness too the fireflies are illuminating the dark sky and earth .

As I was admiring the fireflies and their light , Sam spoke, " Liz tell me one thing that if moon does not show up, will this earth remain dark at night ?". I replied ," No Sam! God never leaves this earth dark , there is always a source of light to the darkness . Like tonight Fireflies are lighting the darkness ". Sam smiled and he said, " Liz you have answered all your questions yourself . Just like god never leaves his earth dark in the same way ,he never leaves his creatures in darkness , so I assure you that I and you will never find darkness in life even after you leave me ". I nodded my head in a yes .

We hugged and kissed each other with warmth, love , affection and longing . I felt like the time stilled and the earth stopped revolving because this moment is magical filled with butterflies of sensations of touch , craving of longing love and the fireflies surrounding us in spirals .

As we moved apart a firefly sat on my nose . It tickled me and I laughed . Sam too looked at my shining nose and he said " This firefly likes your nose but I like your rosy soft lips ". I elbowed Sam then I said " Sam Parker what will you say to your sister Stacy and my Aunt Jane when I will disappear out of the blue ?". Sam became serious hearing my question . He replied " I will say that you had applied for a scholarship in USA and recently it got accepted . You didn't wanted to upset Stacy and Jane that is why you left without telling them . Liz.......just write a letter for them informing about the same scholarship that you got in foreign .Leave rest of the things on my shoulder , I will handle everyone here .

We walked back to the house . I felt a sudden wave of sadness while I entered the house . I looked at the sleeping figure of Stacy before disappearing into my world .Tears filled my eyes as we walked to Sam's room . I saw the wardrobe which transported me here and a shiver ran down my spine .
