THE MIRACLE UNIVERSE DAUGHTER : A HEARTBEAT OF LOVE

CHAPTER 22 - THARA’s P.O.V

I wore a lavish green and sea-blue sweetheart neckline with a split dress on my birthday, and when I saw myself in the mirror, I was surprised to look at myself and it was just a simple dress, but the colour of the dress and my skin tone with my blue eyes complemented my good figure perfectly. The dress was a gift from my mom, Rachel.

I was climbing down the stairs when I heard the birthday melody, everything started to play, and I was scanning the crowd when, on top of everything, my eyes landed on my man. Once we had finished cutting the cake, he asked if we could dance, and I immediately agreed because I love him so much. That thought gave him a smirk on his face. I kept my head high as we danced slowly, and when his breath touched my skin, I felt some kind of spark of energy flow from my spine to my brain.

Then, all of a sudden, he lifted me high in the air for a swirl. I gasped in awe, and that made us laugh out loud together. I was standing in front of him between his legs, and clutching his blazer, I was standing and laughing with him when I felt a hot fire radiation from him that made me leave a space between us.

His eyes were glowing a golden yellow, and he suddenly pulled me to the backyard garden, where the sea could be seen, and, with a chill breeze present, he told me that he wanted to ask me something personal. I said OK. He told me that he wanted to be my life partner for the rest of my life and to love me more and more every day. I got proposed to by saying, "I LOVE YOU." That, too, from my man of love, gave me goosebumps.

I saw him eye to eye, and I want to tell him that I may not say it every time or with the right word, but I would love to have you in my life. It is much less formal to say I want you to be completely mine than to say you are mine for the rest of my life. Immediately I had a thought to tease him, so I replied to him in a serious tone by telling him, "I too love you a lot, more than a friend, but I couldn't see you as anything more than a friend in any way; if someday I feel something for you, I will tell you at that time."

I didn't completely reject his confession, but I did accept it wholeheartedly inside myself. I didn't respond positively or negatively either. I don’t want to be locked into this love confession, but I love him more than anything, and now is not the moment for me to open up about my feelings when I could have been playing with him instead. Anyway, he is mine right now and forever. Whenever I attempt to be myself around Aaron, I feel as though something is missing from me. Likewise, even after his confession and two years later, we are still close. I never confessed to him throughout the two years that have since passed.

I am now 20 years old, and Diya has been with me since I was six years old, and we used to fight, cling to, and love each other like sisters. One day, while waiting for my other friends in the cafeteria with my best friend, Diya, from nowhere, my heart began to ache, and I became uneasy in my seat while Diya went to pick up our order and returned. That time I had a vision stating Diya, who was coming with our drinks, was possessed by evil, and if I did not collide with the situation, she would be dead. I'm not sure what it was, but I didn't want to drink that drink.
