Chapter I: History is always THE WORST subject.
2nd March, 2013.
It was my 19th birthday my entire family, friends people and my other significant had gathered to celebrate my day. It was all going so well until he dropped to his knee pulling out an extortionate diamond ring from his pocket and proposed me.
With his deep voice he said, "We all are imperfect aren't we? trying our level best to fit in this world which we never ever but we still try. The day I met you was the day I realised I found my world somewhere I fit perfectly just without changing myself that somewhere is you. You are my world and would always be. With you I can be the sailing ship in a disastrous sea, with you I am complete. I being a flaw and you mending all my faults we can work together and can be flawless. Will you Helena Leicester allow me the privilege of spending the rest of my life with you, would you be my part, path and parcel of my life? I know I am being a lot dramatic right now but it's no wrong time to express my feelings for you is it?"
I could hear several gasp in the background. Jealousy was so expected emotion which was clearly seen on their faces. Many people couldn't stand the view which they were witnessing.
Holy s**t! I didn't see that coming right now. I mean who really wants to get married right away? Like seriously? 19?! The 'Prince of Hevadal' was still on his knees in front of me. Those hazel brown eyes were completely into mine. He asked again, "Are you going to say anything?"
"Wh-what?!! I understand - I know, that we have been together for several months but i still don't visualize my future with you! I mean come on I just turned 19 and you expect me to get engaged? Yes! I do love you with all my body, mind and soul but I'm not ready for this step of my life right now." I replied.
He was out of words and his warm gaze turned to be cold as snow. I could feel the rising emotional tension between us- Oh my God losing it! The aggression in him just made me blue. I could hear whispers behind my back God these people are just entertaining themselves with this s**t show.
With one last look he stormed out of the hall. I could feel myself trembling on my knees praying to God everything between us would be just fine after the scene.

Since the day he proposed me on my 19th birthday things were not the same. He was no longer himself, his personality, character changed and he was no longer the person I knew, the person I loved. Imposing aggressive love, rude remarks, abusive nature from his side were the common entities in our daily conversation. I could see our relationship going down. Where I was completely broken and helpless to mend things back to normal. If I ever had a chance, I would erase the memory of that day from our minds but unfortunately it's not happening. I loved how we were in the past, the flowers, picnic and the best part Horse riding. I want to cherish those good days again.
One fine day we were walking in the aile. The silence seemed to be a loud voice between us and AGAIN he asked me,
"Will you marry me now?"
"I once said No. Not right now. I'm not ready right now. What part of this sentence don't you understand?
" Why are you being Bitchy?"
"I'm not being bitchy it's just you are being so desperate to get engaged to me and I don't like it. Just cut it please for God's sake" I replied.
"Shut the f**k up! That very day I didn't say a word to you doesn't mean that I'm voiceless or I'm going to take your s**t or be a polite nice guy to you. You should feel yourself lucky that I asked you out, there are many girls in line already to get under the sheets with me." He said.
"Who the f**k are you to shut me off every now and then? I'm not your puppet. If I want to marry I will, but if I don't I WILL not! You better understand that." saying that I walked away from his sight.

A few later he showed up at my door. I politely let him in. The moment we both were in my room with privacy at it's best, he muttered the spell 'Imprecatus' 'Null Imprecatus' was my counter attack. He was caught red handed. I assumed he never expected me to fire back.
"What the f**k was that? So now you are using spells against me? If I'm not wrong, Imprecatus is a spell to make the opposite person do what you want them to do. So hard guess you are more using magical powers to get myself married to you? You are being a total d**k right now don't you know that?" I was furious.
"This wouldn't had been the same if you little piece of s**t would have silently agreed to marry me and of we both are still not on the same page I guess it's time for me to cast black magic against you, what do you think huh?" he replied.
"You are a complete psychopath. Don't you understand No means No. I am- I'm totally done with you. Babe we are done for good now. Now for f***s sake get your ass out of my room."
But things didn't turn out the way I thought, instead he took a step towards me. I knew there was no good intention. The physical tension was growing each second and before he could do anything bad I shouted the spell 'Nikaldetaus' and strong force was exerted towards him throwing him out of the house.

With every single day passing by my hate towards him grew. He showed up at my doorstep almost every day, threatening me to get engaged. I tried my level best to distance myself from him but he always showed up out of nowhere. On top of it my parents were also forcing me to get engaged. I was so f*****g done with respect to every aspect of my life right now. I wanted to start it all over again and change almost everything. The negativity he radiates from his presence around me just makes me nauseous. 9 months! 9 f*****g MONTHS! that s**t head was tormenting and torturing my mental state. Those bloody eyes haunt me till date. Those days were the worst time of my life, it was a complete roller coaster ride for my mental health. Already the rising irritation regarding the sky roaring fame of my parents and their wish to get myself engaged with him just made me finalise my decision of leaving my Homeland.
It was the 6th of December, 2014 maybe just a normal day for you guys but for me it was the day which entirely changed my life. I belonged to... Ne- Neverland. A place not for the human race but, a place for magic and its people. Yes! I belonged there. I have quite a bad history at that place and hence never going back there.

(Present day, 2021)
"I am getting the hell out of here where neither you nor him can ever find me. He will not let his curse on you because your existence doesn't matter to him; all he wants is to take control over me, my body which will never happen until my last breathe."
Bell of the alarm rings out of nowhere. I open my eyes and realise that it was just another nightmare. The memory of that day I left my Homeland doesn't disappear from my mind. I, I am Helena Leicester, just an ordinary girl working at Walmart. I am here serving people in the Walmart store living a really peaceful and happy life. It's been more than 7 years now that I'm hiding my magical gift from these normal beings. I wonder how different my life would have been if I didn't leave that day. I glanced at my cellphone it's already 9:00 a.m. (shouting) Shoot I am freakin' late again.
