High School: Way to Forever

Her mother was stressed and it surely was not about her late arrival at home.

"Mom what happened?"

Mother turned and saw Anna coming towards her. She holds her hand and said,

"Anna, someone called me today and said you can't hide anymore."

Hearing this Anna's eyes turned cold. She can feel her mother's hand trembling.

"Don't worry mom. No one can find us. We are safe."

"But Anna that call....."

"Who called you?" directly asked Anna.

"Anna, it doesn't matter who called or not."

Anna narrowed her eyes. Mother Marrie knew that she can never hide these things from Anna, even if she is not willing to tell, Anna can find these out very easily.

"It was his rivals."

Anna sighed.

"Mom, you trust me right?" hearing this mother hugged Anna.

"An, you are the only thing I treasure. You are my gem. After your brother's death, I can't afford to loose you also. I can never live without you, you know that. All this is happening because of me. I allowed your father and you started....."

Anna interrupted, "No mom. Its not happening because of you, its all happening because of that person whose genes are inside me. I made a big mistake. I shouldn't have forgotten my identity and this might not happen.You are not at all responsible. Don't worry, I will see what I can do. This will never happen again, I promise."

Mother's eyes were filled with tears but she knew for her daughter, she has to be strong.

After consoling her mother, she went upstairs. She locked her door

Anna was standing in her balcony, staring at the sky and thinking about all those memories that she had kept hidden in her heart.

She closed the entry of her heart, when she was 14.

She let go of her memories, her past.

But her past is never leaving her.

She left the window opened and sat in front of her laptop. She messaged some people and after getting reply from them, she was assured.

.....

But when she was staring at the sky, in someone's eyes, her photo was a star which completed his eyes.

Alex, was today emotionally down. He hated that look on Anna's face when she was afraid, afraid of being caught.

He wants to help her from front foot but he knew this wasn't the perfect time. For now, she has his back , if not infront of everyone but he is always there for her in shadows.

He knew that she is capable of managing these things but still he was scared.

Scared to AGAIN loose her.
