Blake : I had no idea what to say to her or what not .

I didn't even know how she felt at that moment . She remained frozen at the spot staring at the screen .

I had already called her name twice and she hasn't responded yet .

I gently stroked her facing moving so that she looks at me .
" Al look at me please . I am dying here . Just say something anything . I am will to tell you everything but just say a word . "

She kept quiet but then lifted her eyes . My world just went haywire , she looked so sad . Her eyes were full of questions but she was scared to know the answers .

I brought into a hug and kissed her hair . She didn't hug me back but the moment I tried to look at her again she hid her face in my chest .

I patted her hair and then zipped her dress.

I don't know why everytime we move a bit forward something like this happens .

We both know that the start of our relationship was difficult . I hated her for the fact that she forced Lisa away but then as we spent more and more time together I knew that there was something hidden in this story .

She kept sighing in my arms .

" Al let's just sit down okay " I brought her towards the sofa that was set on the far end in my office . I made her settle down and grabbed a glass of water and handed it to her .

" here take this "

She hesitated a bit but then gulped all of it down . I grabbed one of the chairs and placed it infront of her as I sat down holding her hand .

I knew what she might be feeling . She had always felt a bit inferior in comparison to her sister . She would never really say it .

" Al you very well know how our relationship started ." she just nodded and looked down .

" I was promised to Lisa and I had kept that in my mind long enough for her to have importance in my life but the day she left I wasn't heartbroken or anything . I just felt bad that once again she had to sacrifice everything and thats for your selfishness. "

She took in a sharp breath and looked up at me .

" You are saying this after knowing everything " she stood up but I forced her to sit down again .

" Listen to me first before you set out on any sort of conclusion "

" But after I got to know you I realised that the story that I was fed was just a lie. I knew you better than to steal away your own sisters husband . And then I started to find more about all this . "

I said gently stroking her palm . I took a deep breath before I started again

" I had hired a detective earlier to find something about Lisa but he failed miserabl . He got some information from her last photo shoot 7 months back but that's it . Then just a few months back your parents contacted me . They were concerned about both of there daughters and since then we were searching for Lisa . "
Her eyes were now filled with tears .

" I know you would hate me for hiding this stuff away from you but I never really wanted to do that . I love you Al and I didn't want you to be in pain . You have suffered enough and I couldn't bare to see you hurt more than you already have . "

" you were in contact with my father . Did he ever asked anything about me or my mother did she said something about me " Her eyes were filled with curiosity.

I cupped her face and placed a lingering kiss on her head .

" they always have . Not even once the ended the call without questioning about your wellbeing . They love you Al and they always will no matter what. "

"But why did they never once tried contacting me directly . I was always so scared that they might hate me . I could never even get myself to talk to them . " She said as another tear rolled down her face .

" One day soon they will talk to you but right now even they need some time . Till now they assume that Lisa had ran away because of you . So they might need time to understand the situation . Al it's just that and not anything else. "

I sat down next to her bringing her to me . Trying to calm her down . She kept on crying .

" I don't know what I am feeling right now Blake. But please just take me somewhere . Somewhere far away from all this . I can't handle it . It's just too much . "

I grabbed her face and kissed her tears away . Then I kissed her temple as I stood up and held out my hand for heheto take . She wiped her face and took it .

I lead her out of my office and towards hers to grab on her things .
It was already two and a half hour after the office time so nearly all the employees had left.

I was relieved that no one got to see her in such a condition otherwise rumours would have been flying already .

I held the gate for her and she just sat down silently .

I didn't said anything . I knew she wanted time to understand everything .

Alyssa : I felt suffocated in that room.
Blake and my parents were trying so hard to find her or gain any sort of information while I had known throughout that why she had ran away and with whom .

I felt so bad for hiding it . But what if I had told them and they might start to hate her. She is in a situation where she needs her family the most but instead she had to run away from them .

" Are you feeling any better Al ??"

His voice brought me back to earth .

" so amm how was Lisa in her last photo shoot did she seem to be fine . "
I said clearing my throat .

" Al the picture you saw was from her last photo shoot but it's been 7 months . So we don't know much ."

Again I felt guilty for hiding the truth .

" oh but don't you worry we'll find her soon enough . " he said giving me an assuring smile .

He had always been so nice and I was the one to doubt on his faithfulness . I was beyond ashamed . He had been helping in finding my sister and here I thought he had feelings for her . I am stupid so stupid .

We soon came to halt and I was again taken away from my thoughts . It seemed to be a place in the outskirts of the city . So calm and beautiful .

" where are we Blake . "

" you wanted to go to some place far away from everything so I brought you here . Its Cole's farmhouse . He comes here often to spend time with his family and friends . "

I just nodded as he held my hand and led me towards the entrance .

But I didn't felt like going in . I wanted time to think everything out .

" Blake let's just be out for a while " I said stopping him in his tracks .

" sure but I'll just check everything inside and then I'll join you . "

I looked at him confused as instead of going in he started to pick up different pots .

" what are you doing " I questioned.

" ohh I am looking for the keys . Be generally place them under one of the pots . " He said scratching the back of his neck .

" You can just call him and find out which one it is . "

" but what's the fun in that. "
He said chuckling but with luck as he picked another one up he got the keys .

Then there it was his huge smirk plastered on his face .

A smiled brought itself on my face as I thought of him .

I lied down on the grass . Staring at the open sky full of stars before I fell into sleep .
