Enchanted Love

#######

“Love?” Clara asked showing her dimple smile to flatter him as always.

“You don’t say that you love me often. But your eyes, your actions speak volumes about your love for me” Alex places so many kisses over her hand as she smiles broadly. Of course, he is always right when it comes to judging her. How can he do this with ease?

#######

Alex and Clara remembered their little moment back then. Clara knew that she can’t deny him even now. How can he just easily judge her actions and intentions? She blinked to absorb his words as his grip over her shoulders deepened. Her mind snapped at her to get away from him. But as usual, his chocolate orbs have some magic magnets that make her blank every time.

“Was it me? Love? Concern? For you?” Edward’s words broke their little moment as all gawked at Edward. Everyone around there could see Alex was talking about Clara.

“I didn’t scream. I was glad that the punch landed on you before me.” Edward added with a serious tone as all gaped at him while Jason started laughing. To be honest he started enjoying their rants and mocks.

“Even I was glad that I was first. Because the second punch was much deeper than mine” Alex laughed as he looked at the deep black marks of Edward. Of course, the punch got stronger with Edward and even worse with Jason.

“I don’t know who shouted when you get punched. That was just 5% compared to my darling. she was scared and panicked when I was attacked.” Edward spoke now in a serious tone admiring Alina who shifts her gaze away from him. Of course, she is angry. But shouldn’t it be the other way?

“Yeah, because I hate white colours” Alina replied with a scoff.

“What?” Edward is unable to understand her words. But the tone implied that she is angry. But isn’t should be him who is supposed to be angry?

“What if you lose your life and I had to wear a white dress lifelong? Can you imagine?” Alina asked as Edward gasped loudly. That was rude. Alex started laughing and of course, Clara couldn’t control it as she burst into laughter. Edward gaped at them as Clara closed her mouth instantly. She can’t side up with Alex and tease Edward.

“I know we have not much space. But can you sit down?” Edward spoke as Clara turned red to realise her position. Alex looked at Edward all annoyed. Is it that important to say? Edward smirked back at Alex. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction.

Clara pushed him instantly and sat beside him, having her eyes glued to the floor.

“When I was getting punched, I didnt hear even a shocking gasp. They were all busy. Thank you guys” there comes Jason as everyone turned to his side with wide eyes. Did they realise that till now? Hell no.

“Jason, we were scared of course as these two are such weak creatures of God. Didn’t you see how they tried to save us?” Alina replied instantly.

“We were scared for you too. Why did you think like that?” Clara felt bad. She didnt scream or anything. But she was too scared to see them all like that. There was no exemption.

As time gets running, the pain starts increasing. Jason began murmuring in pain. They all had only a little meal as the tiring day made their appetite vanish.

Alina was continuously looking at Edward for him to talk to her. But he teased her and flirted with her in front of all but he has not talked to her since the Mira incident happened. She is more pissed off now.

She grabbed her purse and wrote something before anyone could see her actions, she threw that to Edward’s face and got up to leave the room. She already saw a beautiful green land behind the home. So killing time would be easier there.

Edward opened the diary which she threw at him.

“Come backside, or else be ready to get a kiss in front of all” Edward widened his eyes at her words. It’s not blackmail but a threat. He knew that she could even do more than that.

He dragged himself instantly. and went away but couldn’t get rid of that diary which fell over the side table.

Alina and Edward were standing there for five minutes and yet they did not speak anything.

“If you think that I would apologise to you for whatever I did with Mira, I will not apologise ” Alina snapped in the silent place, gaining Edward’s attention. He looked at her with a blank expression.

“I am hurt. Surely I am hurt by your actions. But I won’t want you to apologise for such things. But I will feel good if you realise how much it hurt me when I came to know such things. It does hurt me when you hide things from me. It’s not about Mira. It’s just I thought you would never hide anything from me.” Edward gets emotional as Alina’s face softens. She didn’t expect this side for sure. She looked at him for a long time as Edward shifted his gaze. He is angry, mad and hurt but he too knows to let things go when it starts affecting their happiness.

“Edward, I didnt mean to hide it from you” Alina grabbed his arms softly but he gave a small smile.

“But you did. Now anything and everything won’t change the fact that you hide things and it will always be a speck of dirt in our memory” Edward is too sensitive when it comes to his close relations especially when it is Alina.

“I am sorry” She mumbled finally when she realised that it was her mistake. She was hell angry with him when he went silent all of a sudden. But she did realise that he was hurt and that’s why he became silent.

Everyone looked at them through the window and was relieved that they, at last, sorted their differences. They can’t handle another couple fighting for sure.

Alex Clara looked at them and was in awe of their maturity. They did start to love after marriage. But their love seemed to be so mature and cute.

“Is it the exact problem between us?” Clara asked pained.

“Yeah, but here Edward is not hyper like me. He always chooses words whenever he gets angry” Alex could see what went wrong actually.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

“And Alina is not like me to hold onto things even though it’s not her fault.” Clara has never accepted this so far. But now she knew that she is a little more adamant when it comes to proving the other person wrong.

“I was ten when Mom was pregnant. When that accident occurred, it took one whole year for her to recover. But years more for me and Dad to recover. I know my explanations won’t justify my actions that day. But even now if my mom gets hurt, I can’t imagine my state and I can never hold my temper.” Alex commented still his gaze over Edward and Alina who are hugging now.

“I was wrong and my words were so mean. But you know right? I will never say such things for us?” He asked as he shifted his gaze to Clara.

“That’s why I shut my heart and was annoyed realising how you left me that day.” He added but she gave a blank expression making it hard for him to think about her thoughts.

“I don’t want to be alone anymore” He voiced out after a little silence. He slowly grabbed her tiny hand and hugged those fingers with his fingers.

“Please give me only one chance. Please. Forgive me. Forgive my words which I didnt mean. Forgive my anger which has separated us and I will never get angry.” He paused to see her. Clara was just staring at him with the same blank expressions, making it tough for him to proceed anything further.

“Please, Jaan” his words ended as they filled tears in her eyes instantly. Jaan? Does she feel the same connection with that name anymore?
