Chapter 4

That day I found a friend, who was close to me as a sister. When I was in hospital, she was crying all the time. Once I wakeup, she asked me why I helped her, "Because I want you to be my friend" She smiled and said "from now on I own you my life". I was first shocked by her statement, but I did not wanted a slave or something, what i needed was a friend. My father was standing behind her, I saw him for once . He nodded as sign what I wanted to say. 

He came forward with a paper in his hand. Here, He forwarded the papers to her. 'What is this?' she asked. 

"From now on You are no more an orphan" he replied with a small smile. 

She was shocked with hearing his words.

"What do you mean" she said

"This is your adoption papers, my family had adopted you" I said 

I could see many expression on that little girl's face. "why?"

"Since my father has adopted you, we are sisters. And sisters do not own anything to anyone" I replied 

She wanted to say many thing but she was so messed in emotions that she was not able to find the words that could express her feelings. Within a second she busted into tears. She ran to my bed and hugged my tightly while crying. This is how I got one of the best people of my life. Even though we became sisters but she had maintained and imaginary line in our relationship. She always treated me with respected, even after all these years she is able to express her self, but didn't allowed herself till the extend where people could say we are friends. But still she understands me best, and I understands her best. After growing a little I started working, and stablishing my company, she decided to be with me as my assistant. We had same level of education, she is no less talented then me but still instead of making her own identity she choose to be my side. 

*Present*

Alice, are you okay?

"Hm.. I am "

"Alice, you know that I can read your expression very well, so there is no benefit of hiding it from me, You are worried about him right" 

"Yes, Even he is not someone close to me but, I don't want anything to be happened to anyone because of me." I replied

"Don't worry it's not your fault, not this time, and nor ever before. Whatever happened was there own fault, you had denied they should not had came close to you. It was there greed which led them to there endings." She was trying to console me.

*Emma's phone rings*

She received her call, when she was talking, she had the same expression which I never want to see, which makes me hate my self all the time. After talking she cut the call and she was avoiding looking at me, as she knew what I was thinking. 

"He died " I asked her with no expression 

She looked at my face with pitiful eyes "It's not your fault"

I sighed, at the time driver informed we reached our building. We went inside. "I'm going to take shower, after that I'll sleep, don't wake me up for food" saying that I left for my room.
