Falling For His Dark Eyes
Beginning
I am playing on the playground.
Hey, I am Rose and 5 yrs old.
I am here with my mother for the regular playing hours.
Suddenly i turn to see a man in black suit is staring at me. From this distance i can see his dark eyes .He is tall and hella handsome.
His head is slightly tilted with a blank expression on his face.
He looks like this....
Rosie
(Tugging at her dress) Who is that uncle mommy??
Amy ( Rosie's mother)
Which uncle honey??(Looking at that direction)
She looked at the man and squinted her eyes.
Amy ( Rosie's mother)
There's no one honey, are you trying to prank me hmmm....??
Rosie
No mommy, there's an uncle standing there and looking at me.
She looked once more after rubbing her eyes.
I guess this time she saw him.
Amy ( Rosie's mother)
Excuse me sir, Who are you?? ( She called out to him.)
But his expression didn't change, he was looking at me without even blinking.
Rosie
Should i go and talk to him mommy?(I looked at her.)
Amy ( Rosie's mother)
No don't , that uncle is scary. Don't go to him.
Rosie
Please mommy....( showing my puppy eyes.)
At that instant, the time stopped around me. People around stopped doing the things they were doing.
Everything came to a halt.
Rosie
Mommy, mommy( I shook her but got no response.)
My eyes were getting teary.🥺🥺
Just then i saw the man walking slowly towards me.
Unknown man
Hello Rosie.(Deep Voice)
I hid behind my my mother.
His lips bent into a soft smile😊.Looking at his smile i smile too.😄
Unknown man
You know, you are very beautiful..
Rosie
Mommy also says that i am beautiful.
Unknown man
(Chuckles) Will you come with me??
Rosie
No mommy said not to go with strangers. 😗😗
Unknown man
I am not a stranger Rosie, you know me very well.
Unknown man
(He smiled widely) You want or not you will come with me.
When he smiled two pointed teeth peeked from his lips and his eyes started turning crimson.He tried to hold me , i then saw tattoos on his arms.
But not attractive they were scary. Black scary shapes.
I open my eyes sweating all over.
And find myself in my Psychiatrist Dr Row' s clinic.
Dr. Row
Take deep breaths and tell me what you saw once again.
Want to know more..
GO TO THE NEXT CHAPTER.
The unnamed parcel
Dr. Row
Describe the whole thing you just saw.
I tell him the whole dream without leaving any single detail.
Dr. Row
As much as my analysis till now, it seems that this incident actually happened with you at that time.
Rosie
But doctor, why can't i remember it then??
Dr. Row
Unfortunately i can't say anything right now. You say, you remember every single detail then why can't you remember this.
Rosie
I don't know what's happening with me. (frustrated sigh)
Dr. Row
Just do one thing then, try to remember that day. Go to that park as frequently as you can. Try searching for that man. After 15 days come for next session, then we will see if your condition has improved.
Rosie
Thank you so much doctor.
I left for home.
While driving, my mind wanders of to the man. Who the heck is he?? What does he want?? Did i ever meet him??
My phone rang bringing me out of my imagination.
Shayn(Rosie's bestie)
Where are you?? Your parcel has arrived.
Rosie
Which parcel?? I didn't order anything.
Shayn(Rosie's bestie)
But the parcel has your name on it. Just come home soon.
I didn't order anything. Ughhh........ everything is messed up. My phone rang once more.
Rosie
Michelle, what do you need??
Michelle(Rosie's bestie)
Looks like someone is too frustrated. What happened?
Rosie
I can't explain it now, let me get home.
Michelle(Rosie's bestie)
Okay, i am on my way home too. See you soon, lovely.
Rosie
Yeah, you too lovely.
Shayn and Michelle are my best friends. We all live together, after my parents they are my little family.
After driving a long way i got to sweet little home.
So to let you know, i live in Norwell and in addition to that i own a restaurant called "Flowing Valley".
Not only me, both my best friends are my partners.
I rang the bell, Shayn opened the door.
Shayn(Rosie's bestie)
So, the queen is home. 😏
Rosie
(Hit his shoulder playfully.) Shut up. Where's the parcel you were talking about??
Shayn(Rosie's bestie)
At least, set your foot inside the house don't start inquiring outside the house.
Rosie
Okay, Is Michelle home yet?
Michelle(Rosie's bestie)
I am here lovely. (backhugged Rosie)
Rosie
Good enough, let's go inside i have something to tell both of you.
We all go inside and sit on the sofa.
Shayn goes inside the room, comes out carrying something in his hand.
Shayn(Rosie's bestie)
Here's your parcel.(Hands her the parcel)
Rosie
But i really didn't order anything.
Michelle(Rosie's bestie)
Should we open it? 🤨
Rosie
This package is looking suspicious.
Shayn(Rosie's bestie)
Look here's written "To, Rosie, From , your long lost LOVER." Woah i didn't read this before. Your lover huh??
Rosie
Do you want to die??😡
Michelle(Rosie's bestie)
You know he is like that. Let's just open the package.
We all open the package slowly, eying it suspiciously the whole time. After taking off the ribbon and the gift wrapper we finally got the box.
Shayn(Rosie's bestie)
Open it.
Rosie
Okay, fingers crossed🤞🤞. I am opening it.
After opening it, i got shocked as hell and seeing the expression on my face, my friends also freaked out.😨
Want to know what's inside??
KEEP READING......
Maple Bay
Place: Norwell "Sweet home"
After seeing the thing inside the package, my eyes popped out of my head
There were two pictures inside it.
Shayn(Rosie's bestie)
What happened?? You are looking like you saw a ghost.
Michelle(Rosie's bestie)
There's something written behind this house's picture "Our little home, love." And who's this man, do you know him??
Both of them turn to look at me.
Rosie
How did he even manage to get my address? I thought this man was non-existent. But here i am looking at his picture.
Michelle(Rosie's bestie)
What are you murmuring?? You never told us about this person.
Shayn(Rosie's bestie)
You didn't say that he is your ex or something. When did you date him??
Rosie
Both of you keep quiet and listen to me. Do you know where do i go nowadays. I never told you but from past 2 months i am taking therapy.
Michelle(Rosie's bestie)
What are you taking therapy for?? Are you depressed??
Shayn(Rosie's bestie)
Do you have any mental illness?? You are going to a psychiatrist and didn't think about telling us. Did you even consider us your family.
Michelle(Rosie's bestie)
Calm down Shayn. At least let her speak.
Explain it. 😒😒
Rosie
Okay.(sigh) So, i am having a strange dream nowadays from these past 2 months. There i see a man, a hella handsome man staring at me and asking me to go with him. And when i refuse he turns into something else. The picture is of him after the change.
Shayn(Rosie's bestie)
What did the doctor say sbout it??
Rosie
He said that in some phase of my life this incident actually happened and i have actually met that man. But i didn't seem to remember the incident.
Michelle(Rosie's bestie)
If something like that happened, wouldn't you tell us??
Rosie
That's the exact point, i really don't remember him.
Shayn(Rosie's bestie)
And now looking at this package we get to know that this person actually exists.
Rosie
Exactly, it means that incident actually happened. I just need to remember it.
Michelle(Rosie's bestie)
(Taking Rosie's hands) How can we help??
Rosie
We have to go our hometown, Maple Bay.
Shayn(Rosie's bestie)
Why??
Rosie
Do you remember the park where we used to play often. I always saw that man there, standing at a corner of the park staring at me.
Michelle(Rosie's bestie)
So, when are we going??
Rosie
Wait a min, if we all will go, then who will look after "Flowing Valley"
Michelle(Rosie's bestie)
Don't worry about it, Mary can handle it.
Shayn(Rosie's bestie)
When are we leaving for our lovely Maple Bay.
Rosie
Let me search for train tickets. (Scrolling through my phone) There's a train after two days. Should i book it??
Michelle(Rosie's bestie)
We should go there as soon as we can, it will be better.
Rosie
I booked it, let's go then pack our things.
Shayn(Rosie's bestie)
Let's treat this trip as a break fron work. (enveloping us both in a group hug)...
Life is better when your lived ones are with you. I am glad they both are coming with me, with them being by my side, i am stronger to face the truth.
Setting feet on the station every single memory. Every single incident, joy, sadness, excitement, i don't quite know what to feel.
Should i feel concerned about the man or should i thank him for making me return to my hometown.
Shayn(Rosie's bestie)
Stop thinking so much Rosie. Let's go, check into the hotel. (worried expression)
Rosie
Hmmm.......(smiling)
Michelle(Rosie's bestie)
Are you not going to come.
Just then someone called my name from behind.
Turning back i saw her standing there with open arms.
I ran towards her and hugged her tightly.
WHO'S THE PERSON I SAW??
