Grace's P.O.V.

It's raining, even the rain want to hide my tears. Today my 2 year old relationship was broken up my boyfriend, Lucas. The reason he gave me was that i am not wealthy enough to engage with him.He said that i bring him and his family nothing but shame. The fact is i am Grace Smith, the mysterious CEO of the multinational company in USA.He's talking about wealth (smirk) , i have enough wealth to get his whole company bankrupt, but i hid this fact from him because i wanted a true love,was that too much to ask. In 22 years of my life i have encountered many people who were just clinging on me because of my background.

Being a prodigy, at the age of 20 itself i was doing my post graduation in finance in London.Besides this i also did my work as a ceo.I purposely hid my background.I never showed off, never wore branded clothes.I was very happy with this common life and in the first year itself i got into relationship with these heartthrob of our college, Lucas. He was tall, handsome and rich. I always asked him what he saw in me to which he always replied that i was his love at first sight.It always made me blush. According to him i was just a commoner but he treated me like a princess. We had our first kiss on my 21st birthday and never got into physical intimacy. I know Lucas wanted it many times but i was reluctant because i wanted more time and Lucas respected my decision. Both our families knew about our relationship. Lucas' family were always a bit rude towards me because of my background (which was fake) but my family was very happy for me for getting loved by such a handsome and wise man.Today i went towards his house to celebrate our graduation and also tell him the truth about my background. There was no one inside and the door was locked as he was out celebrating with his friends .I had a spare key and thought that i will suprise him when he will come home. i went inside and started baking cake and his favourite dishes. I was blushing imagining his reaction to my surprise.Finally it was 8 pm amd i was sitting on the sofa waiting for his arrival. I also locked the door so that Lucas would think that no one is inside.Then i heard the sound of Car's engine, i hurriedly went in the corner to hide and give him a suprise. He unlocked the door. I peeping just when i saw Cristina, a famous model in london beside him. They started kissing each other.It was a surprise for me as i never ever thought that he would cheat on me. To confirm the situation i took out my phone and called him. When he saw my number on the mobile screen he just ignored it. Cristina asked him the reason to which he said that-"This bitch never allows me to have sex and always i have to satisfy my hunger with someone else." I was shocked to hear this. I was controlling my tears thinking that how many times he must have cheated on me. Then again Cristina asked him why he didn't break up with me. Lucas said- "i thought she was some big shot because she always used to do important projects hiding away from everybody ,so i got into relationship with her. But then i got to know that she is nothing but a commoner. Her parents were just mere workers and the projects were useless, all related to her part time job.Now stop this all. Let's continue what we were doing."I was fumed with anger i got up. They wese surprised to see me. Lucas and i had a verbal fight. He said a lot of things to me. He showed me his trueself. Deep inside I was hoping that he would be sorry for his action but to my surprise he told me to get out from his home and never see him again. I took my belongings and ran away. I sat on a bench weeping.I was immensely heart broken .Just as i was thinking about my past i saw a man approaching towards me. I was not able to see him properly. He's lips were moving but i was not able to hear anything. Later,the moment he helped me to get up, i collapsed.

David's P.O.V.

I was exhausted from searching jobs and giving interviews.It was a long day afterall.As i was going towards my house and figuring out where to apply next,i saw a girl crying her heart out under the dim light of street light.Her hairs were long black. She had a fair skin .Even in this dark night under the dim light, her skin was glowing. Her slender hands were busy wiping off the tears on her face which were continuously rolling down..Even in her miserable state according to me she was the most beautiful woman I has ever seen in my life. It was a love at first sight for me.As I went towards her I observed that she was trying hard to supress her tears but it came running down her cheeks showing how deeply she was hurt. I din't know anything about her, it is my first time to see her in this area but still watching her cry made my heart unstable. My heart ached.So I went towards her. I called her out but she didn't give any response, finally she saw me. We made an eye contact. Her eyes were the most enchanted thing i have ever seen. I asked her about her name and where she lived so that i can drop her. But she didn't reply. She was just staring at me. Then i thought to get her a bottle of water but then what if in the mean time she went somewhere.So i came up with an idea to help her get up so that we can together go somewhere near the convenience store and get her a bottle and make her feel relax. I grabbed her had, it felt very warm as if i cannot let this hand go away from me. She didn't retreat her hand it was more like she didn't even know what was going on with her. Anyway you should be at ease as you are being helped by a gentleman, I chuckled while thinking this. Suddenly she fainted. I panicked as to what happened. I tried to wake her up but in vain. I immediately gave her a piggyback. Her whole body was on my back.She was so close to me what her chest was rubbing my back. I suddenly realised about my perverted thoughts and came back to the situation. I took her to the nearest clinic. I was so panicked that the doctor himself got scared but after he examined her carefully he said- she was overflowed with her emotions that too on empty stomach because of which her blood pressure got low. You should take care of your girlfriend. I blushed after hearing this but

i replied- no she is not my girlfriend.

Doctor- come on brat. what's there to hide from me. I can see how panicked you were when you brought here here. Anyway i leave your girlfriend to you please take care of her she is very weak.

I looked at her she made a movement. I got excited as to what should i tell her. She opened her eyes. I saw confusion in her eyes so i explained her the situation. She was silent then she said thank you for taking care of me. Her voice pierced my heart like an arrow. It was so beautiful. She asked me my name to which i replied-David Watson.Then i asked her about her name, family and her place. Her name was Grace, Grace Smith. What a beautiful name she has. It suits her. I thought. Further she that she was doing her post graduation, originally she is from New York and she didn't want to go back to where she currently lived in London. I didn't ask the reason for it and went out to buy her some medicine and food. Finally i came inside.I saw that now her mood was little lighten up.Doctor recommended her to rest for one day and give some supplement like glucose.I took care of her by cleaning her feet, helped her wash her face. She said that it was all unnecessary but i said that i am doing it because i want to. She blushed a little which i thought was cute .Later i slept on the couch and she slept on the bed. I told her if anything bothers her just wake me up. I got on the couch. I was a little reluctant but then asked her if she could live in my apartment. I know it was very straight forward but i just asked her.She didn't answer i thought she slept.The couch was small for me but still i was not bothered and instead imagined about her blushing face. i don't know when i slept.

Grace's P.O.V.

I woke up and i noticed a man's back facing me .May be he's the one whom i saw before i got collapsed. I thought.He was talking to the doctor. I pretended to sleep and heard their conversation. I listened to the doctor, he was talking about my health then he said about me being this man's girlfriend and I felt that he blushed a little but I was curious about what he would say further to which the man replied no she is not my girlfriend and I felt relieved hearing that. When the doctor left I open my eyes and maybe his saw me making some movement. I was acting innocent as to why I am here then he explained me the whole situation I was very thankful to him for helping me in this miserable state. So I thanked him for helping me with my head lowered then I shifted my gaze towards him I saw him for the first time. He had a fair skin and had a very tall figure.To be frank he was more handsome than Lucas and looked trustworthy but for now it still didn't matter to me because I was in a state where I can't trust anybody. I asked for his name to which he replied- David Watson.He then came near me and asked my name and something about my family and my home I told him my name and also that I was doing post graduation and for now I don't want to go to that home where I lived. I thought that why should I go in that home where I have a lot of memories of me and Lucas in there I wanted some time to make me more stable. After that he went outside the room maybe he also felt uncomfortable with me. I was then emerged with the thoughts of what happened I was wondering if this all is happening for real and this man who is too genuine with me with his gestures is he really that good or he is also two faced like others. Suddenly the door opened and i was surprised to see him back with medicines and some food. As i was having my food the doctor recommended to get one day of rest. I was a little reluctant but before i could answer. The man replied- as you say doctor. I was shocked to hear this. I was wondering that will he take care of me for the whole one day? Will he wash my feet? I was immersed in my thoughts when suddenly i felt cold on my feets. To my surprise he was really washing my feets. I was a little shy to let him do this chores so i asked him to not to do it. But he didn't listened to me and further he even helped me wash my face. I was feeling so warm inside me. Come to think of it. In this time period of 2 years Lucas didn't take care of me even when i was sick and this guy in front of me was being so genuine. He helped me the whole day. Finally it was night and time to sleep. He went on the couch to sleep before which he told me to wake him up if anything botherd me.I nodded. I saw that the couch was small for him to fit but he still slept on it. After some time he suddenly asked whether i can live with him. I didn't know what to answer and he also didn't asked me anything further. I was still thinking that whatever happened yesterday was the worst day in my life. I literally watsed my two years on him.I was so naive to believe him.I was sobbing silently. I don't know when i slept.
