NOT YOUR EVERYDAY LOVE STORY: THREE CHANCES

Maya's pov “ Please don't leave me, you promised that you would stick with me for a very long time, you made me fall for you and now you leave me, that's not fair,” I knew crying wasn't going to bring him back, but I couldn't just sit there and watch him leave me. “ You want to save him that bad, I'll help,” “ Who are you,” “ Who I am shouldn't concern you, what I can do for you, is what you should care about, so I'm going to ask again do you want to save him that bad,” “ Yes, I do, he's the love of my life please save him,” “ What are you willing to sacrifice for that to happen,” “ Anything, tell me what you want,” “ I want nothing, but you should ask yourself, what's more important, his life or your love for him, you can't have both,” “ Why can't I,” “ Very ambitious, you are just like your mother, but that's a story for another book, you can't have both that's all you need to know,” “ I choose his life, bring him back, I can't bare to see him like this,” “ I can't bring him back, but you can, I'm going to send you back to when it started, one year ago when you first met, you have to change his future, you mustn't let him fall in love with you because if he does his fate will be the same as you see right now,” “ What are you saying,” “ You have three chances to restart and if you fail each time his death becames even worse than the previous, but remember changing the past doesn't only affect both of you it affects all those around you,” “ Take me back, I just want to save him,” I couldn't tell what was happening but a big white light was surrounding me I had to close my eyes, the next thing I heard was a familiar voice calling me. “ Maya, finish those dishes soon, you know the young master is coming home for the first time, there is alot to do,” “ Mama! You don't know what I've been through, it was so hard,” “ Girl what are you talking about, they are just dishes, it's not the farm,” Ofcause I had really gone back to one year in the past, alot had happened in just this one year, I remembered it very much… One year ago. “ Maya finish those dishes very soon, you know the young master is coming home for the first time,there is alot to do,” “ Mama! I hate doing dishes, it's so hard,” “ Girl what are you talking about, it's just dishes, it's not the farm,” “ I wish it was the farm,” “ You are a very lazy girl, you better get married to a rich man then,” “ Gross, I'd rather stay with you for a very long, time,” “ Well unlike you, I don't have a very long time,” Things were different then, before even meeting Max, it was just me and my mother. She used to work in the Anderson mansion, that's where she met my dad who was the gardener they fell in love, got married and had me. The Andersons were very kind and they gave as a home and growing up I knew the mansion as my home. Mr Anderson had sent his son to a boarding school in another country at a very young age, so I was the only child growing up in the mansion, I might have been the maids daughter but I didn't feel like that. “ Why is he coming back now?” “ This is his home, he can come whenever he wants,” “ Is it really his home, he's never lived here,” “ So many questions, girl go do your job,” I was do upset, I knew it was never my home but for some stupid reason, I just didn't want him to come back. “ Maya, how are you today,” “ I'm fine Mr Anderson, you look worried, is everything ok?” “ I'm just nervous, Max has not been with me for a very long time, it's going to be a big change having him home,” “ Why did you send him away, did he do something bad,” “ Not really, it wasn't safe for him back then, with my line of work and being a politician, I had alot of enemies, but I'm retired now, I need someone to take over my business,” “ It's still not safe for him,” “ That's why I had him go through alot of training, including military training, he can take care of himself now,” “ So are you going to pick him yourself,” “ I think that's a good idea, he will be happy if I did,” That day wasn't as magical as it looked,I didn't meet Max at the best time in his life because his father that he hadn't seen in a very long time, died before reaching him. Mr Anderson was ambushed on his way to the airport. “ He was a nice man, that I can tell you,” “ Guess I will never know, why? Why didn't I get the chance to meet him just once,” Those were the first words Max said to me, what could I do then than just stay right beside him, I didn't know anything about him but we both shared a similar pain and I wasn't ready yo relive it twice ………………………………………………………… “ Maya how are you today,” it is so weird how the conversation still starts the same way. “ You look very nervous Mr Anderson, I guess you miss him that much,” “ Do you know why I sent him away?” “ Because he wasn't safe with your line of work you were scared that's why you sent him away to have more experience,” “ Have we had this conversation before, I'm getting old,” “ You might have mentioned it,” I knew what would happen if he got in that car, I had to stop him, I couldn't let him just die. “ Mr Anderson, you know children can feel when their parents are nervous, if you go to that special moment will be ruined, let the driver get him,” That was perfect, the driver returned back with Max, I wanted to run and hug him, I did it, this was starting well, when. “ I have bad news, Maya you have to calm down,” “ What's going on,” “ Your mother got into an accident, she didn't make it, I'm sorry,” Running to the hospital, seeing my mum lying there lifeless what was going on.She wasn't ment to die today. “ She looks like a good person, it's sad I couldn't meet her,” those are his first words to me? This wasn't right, I couldn't except this, when suddenly… “ Maya finish those dishes very soon, you know…” “ Mama? You are alive, how is this possible,” “ Girl are you cursing your mother because of dishes, it's not the farm,” what was going on, I was back to this morning.
