Its Too Late To Forgive

Terror crept into her eyes and her breathing laboured.

"Turn around "

....the voice commanded in the darkness.

Bella's knees were as heavy as lead, she did not move. Constantly consoling herself that 'he was not talking to me'.

"I will say once more and the last time. Turn around you cleaner aunty."

Swoosh...

like lightning stuck her heart.

She knew that she has to do as he said, there was no running option now. Her teeth chattered and she turned around stiffly, on her knees.

The atmosphere became extremely odd as that man spoke. All the young masters immediately guessed that something was amiss as soon as they heard their elder brother's words.

All the attendants were happy and started whistling and giggling. They knew that now they will be witnessing a great show.

Bella's eyes were flowing with fear. She wanted to run away from here.

She has spent her 1,460 days in the prison. Each day waited a new punishment, a new torture, a new break down.

After she crawled out of that bottomless abyss, she never ever dared to have any feelings for this man.

What she felt now was only bone deep terror and fear. And frankly that was not only by this man but by everyone around.

"Raise your head".

The low voice ordered her and Bella dared not disobey. She did everything as said like a puppet.

Since the beginning, the booth had dim light. When Bella first came in, she didn't even dared to raise her head, actually she never did anyways also, so it not a surprise that she missed seeing him.

Henry Jackson was sitting in a corner most couch like a king, his long slender arms resting on the sides of the couch. His face had showed no signs of any emotion but his eyes starred at her like a hungry wolf, ready to pounce and rip her into shreds in a second.

In these four years of time, Henry Jackson polished himself into more dazzling personality. He just sat there emanating a mesmerising aura.

Even so.., Bella did not dare to raise her head and look at him. Instead she buried her head more into her chest and cleaner uniform.

"Hmmm..."

Henry snorted and thought, 'Why didn't she come running towards me after realizing that it's me sitting here? Doesn't she remember my voice?' Henry was actually upset by this thought of his.

Once Henry had gone to US for 3 months for his business course. The day he returned to A city, his flight of almost 8 hours late.

Bella waited for him for almost 9 hours. As soon as Henry came out, Bella ran upto him, climbed into his arms like a monkey. She entangled her legs on his waist and hands on his neck.

She never cared what others thought about her. For her, Henry was the only one who mattered.

More Henry tried to push her away, more she hugged him tight. Finally he had to give up. He carried her like this upto her car and then finally Bella got down from him.

Though Henry always ignored her, Bella never gave up on her love. And some how Henry always expected her to be around and enjoyed her lingering onto him. He always felt at ease when he could see only his image and love in her eyes.
