Sacred Sins

Episode 3

Rose's Point Of View,

I know I am just being extra rude but I honestly do not like them, I know they are my dad's family but still, they were not here when I needed them and now they are to attend my wedding like I will forget everything and accept them, how wrong they are, I am just going to meet them coz I do not want to hurt my mom's feeling as she still feels so connected to them and I do not want her to feel bad coz of me so that is why I decided to go down and meet them.

"Here is our Rose", said my mom as I walked down, there were my uncle and aunt and my cousins too, I am just happy to see my cousins after such a long time, so I just pulled them into a hug moment I saw them.

"Hey Alice and Jack, how are you", I asked them as I hugged them so tight and they also came to me and hugged me so tight.

"Rose, we are fine and we really missed you so much and I do not believe that you are getting married, you will go leaving us alone", said Alice to me and I just slowly caressed her hair, she was always attracted to me so much like always I feel a different kind of connection with her and that is why I just love her like my own sister.

"I miss you more Alice and do not worry I will call you to me so that you will be able to stay with me, so you will not miss me", I said to her and she just laughed a little after hearing my words.

"I know you are joking, you will forget us after your wedding", she said in a complaining tone and I just forced a smile on her.

"That is not true baby, I can never forget you, I promise", I said to her and she just hugged me happily, uncle and aunt were looking at me in a hope that I will go and greet them and hug them but I was not planning to do anything like that.

"Hello uncle and aunt, hope you find our house easily, please make yourself comfortable here", I said and looked back at Alice who was still holding my hand.

"Alice, you must be tired, just go and get fresh, mom will send snacks for you", I said to her and Jack and they both looked at me and nodded their heads.

"Thank you Rose", said Alice to me and I just looked at her and smiled at her and she just held my hand and started dragging me from there.

"Hey what are you doing Alice", I asked her but she did not say anything as she was still dragging me and she stopped when there was no one in the gallery.

"Rose, can you stop being mad at them, see I know you are angry with them and you should be, but now it is your wedding and you should be happy, can not you forget what they did Rose, please", said Alice to me and I was just looking at her with wide eyes, how could she say this to me like forgetting everything as nothing happened.

"Alice, I know you are worried coz they are your parents but there is no way I can forget what happened to my dad, you are still a kid Alice, you should not think anything like that okay, just stay out of this and like a good cousin just enjoy my wedding", I said to her and slowly cupped her face and kissed her head, I can understand that she feels bad about her parents but she can not tell me what to do and how, I just know so well what I am doing and I am not gonna regretting anything and I know that so well, I just left leaving Alice alone there and I just went back to my room, I saw Kelly was watching something on her phone and she stopped that when she saw me.

"Hey you are back, I am glad that you are back, you know I was getting bored here alone", she said to me as she sat on the bed and I just looked at her and smiled at her.

"Oh I am so sorry that I left you alone here, but you could have come down, why you did not come", I asked her and she just forced a smile.

"How could I come down Rose, as you know that there was a family time and I do not want to ruin it you know, thank god that I am having phone here with me, so I did not feel that bore", said Kelly to me and I just laughed at her and I sat with her on the bed, I was still a little upset with what just happened, I know I should have been a little gentle to Alice and she should not get involved in just happening but I just could not stop her and now I am feeling so bad, like a villain type.

"Hey what happened", Kelly asked me and I just shook my head.

"Nothing, it is just I am tired", I made a lie and Kelly was just staring at me.

"Oh Rose, you think that you can lie to me, you are getting married, it is your wedding day the next day and here look at your sad face, it is not suiting you know, I am not liking you this face, you should be happy and enjoying and dancing, but no, you are here sad and upset", said Kelly to me and I just looked at her and forced a smile.

"Hey there is nothing like that, I am not upset or something, I am fine", I said to her but she was still glaring at me.

"Who dares to make my wife sad and upset huh, I am not gonna spare him or her, just tell me the name", I heard Denny's husky voice as he walked inside the room with a serious expression on his face.

"I do not know why but she is so upset and sad, since her family, I mean her uncle and aunt came, she is seeming so upset", said Kelly to Denny and he just looked at me with wide eyes.

"Really Rose, you know you could have told me if there is anything that is wrong, maybe I could fix it or something, you know I can help you with anything, why you did not tell me anything, huh", Denny asked me as he came close to me and cupped my face and I just shared a look with Kelly as she got busy with her phone, I just knew that Denny will react like this, I did not want him to know that I was upset at all, he cares about me so much and he got hurt.

"Hey, hey, listen to me Denny, there is nothing like that okay, I am fine, see I am smiling too, it was just our wedding stress you know, that I will leave my house and everything and come to you and live with you, that is why I was a little upset, there is nothing like what you think, okay", I said to her as I maintain to force a smile to him and he was still cupping my face and looking straight into my eyes like he was trying t read my eyes, but there is no way that anyone could read my eyes that easily, I know very well how to hide my real emotions, so there is no way that Denny could sense anything.

"Oh really Rose, you really do not need to worry about anything you know, I will take you home every time you will feel like that and also you do not even need to think about anything as mom would be living with us, so you will not miss her, so I do not think that you will miss your home that much after that", said Denny to me and I just nodded my head as I was agreed what he said, he is right, I will not miss my mom coz she will stay with me but he is gonna miss so many things.

"Yes, I do think the same Denny and for that, I can not thank you enough, you know you made me so happy when you make mom ready to stay with us, you know so well that I can not leave her alone", I said to Denny and he just nodded his head.

"I know baby, I know everything, you do not have to worry about anything, I am here and I will handle every single thing", said Denny to me and I just placed my lips on his, I know it was not the right time for this but sometimes he just says things that touch my heart and I can not control myself from kissing him, I just wrapped my arms around her neck and started kissing him hard and I just as I know he also gets excited and started kissing me hard, I know he was being rough but it was fine, I was enjoying it, his kisses having magic or maybe his lips are having magic, every time I kiss her I feel like I can not stop, I want more of that taste and now he was also holding me from my waist and cupping my face from the other hand, our kiss was getting deepened with each passing second until we got interrupted.

"Guys, I am still here, have some shame or get a room, tell me what I can do for you both, huh", I heard a naughty voice of Kelly and we just looked at her as she was looking at us with wide eyes as we totally forget that she was also here, Denny was looking so shy at this moment as it was really hard for him to even look at Kelly and Kelly was laughing so badly on this.

"So Denny what you think, you really want to get a room, huh", Kelly was just teasing him and I was just enjoying the view as he was really looking so shy.

"I think I need some fresh air", said Denny and walked out from the room with that cute and shy face and Kelly just looked at me and we both laughed so hard.

"You should not have done that to him, you know he is so shy, and now see, he just went out of the room", I said to Kelly and she just looked at me, trying hard to control her laugh and I just glared at her.

"Well, I was not planning to do that but it just happened, you know it was the very first time when I saw someone kissing that wildly in real, but you know if I would have an invisible person, then I would surely enjoy the show you know, but it was a little shy for me to see that, so I just have to interrupt", she said and I just hit her shoulder.

"Oh my god Kelly, just look at you, how shameless you are, how could you even think like that, you shameless fellow", I said to her and she started laughing so hard.

"Poor Denny, he got so shy", she teased again and I just hit her head again.

"Kelly, you are not gonna change right, always like this", I said to her and she proudly nodded her head.

"Yes, like always", she said and we both just laughed again so hard.

"Hey, dinner is ready, aunt is calling both of you down", said Alice as she was standing at the door and looking at us and I just shared a look with Kelly as she was looking at me.

"Amm come to Alice, you can come inside", I said to her and she forced a smile and walked inside as we both were sitting at the table.

"Kelly meet my cousin Alice", I said to Kelly and she looked at Alice and smiled so softly.

"Hey Alice, nice to meet you", said Kelly slowly and offered her hand.

"Same here Kelly, nice to meet you too", said Alice with a smile and they both just shake their hands.

"So, what is going on in your life Alice, tell me something about yourself", said Kelly to Alice and she just got a little uneasy by that question I do not know why.

"Well, I am in my high school now, waiting for being into college, I heard college life is too much fun and that is the best time of your life", said Alice and Kelly just laughed at her words and I just know she should not have a laugh, but to be honest I also wanted to laugh at that, but I just glared at Kelly and she instantly stopped laughing.

"Hey I am so sorry, I really did not mean to laugh at all, it is I am wordering that how come teenagers assume that college life is so much fun and the best part of our life, that is not true honey, it is just an illusion, there is no fun, there is just stress you know, college life sucks, you should enjoy as much as you can in your scholl period coz college life will give you headaces, those dramas, those stress, those exams, that is really tough, I mean you will feel like you are living hell, I am just saying this by my personal experince, trust me Alice, there is nothing good about college life coz the tension of your future will eat you alive until you find out that what do you want t do in your life", said Kelly as I was just looking at her with wide eyes, I just know whta ever she said was true but I do not think that she should have tell her to Alice like that, she was so excited to go to college and now I just have no idea what is running into her mind coz her face is looking so serious at this time and I just glared at Kelly with angry eyes coz Alice is still a kid, she was not able to handle this no matter how much true it was, Alice was just looking at me with helpless eyes and i just do not know what the hell I should say now, I do not want to see her upset.

"Hey Ros, whatever Kelly said about college life, it is true", Alice asked me and I just took a deep breath as I have no idea what the hell I should tell her now, she is looking at me with hopeful eyes like she is expecting a different answer from me and I just gulped hard and looked at her as I cupped her face and nodded my head.

"See Alice, half of them are true, but not all, if you already know that what do you want to do with your career then your college life would be so easy, all you have to do is follow the right path, that way will lead you right to the bright future, did you get what I mean Alice", I asked her and she nodded her head with a smile.

"Now I know what I want from my life, so I will make sure that my college life will be fun for sure, I will not let make it a headache to anyone, thank you so much for your help Rose", said Alice to me and I just smiled at her and nodded my head.

"I will be always their honey", I said softly and she smiled hard at me.

"Now come, aunt is waiting for dinner", said Alice and I nodded my head again.

"You go, we will be there soon, okay", I said to her and she nodded her head and left the room and I just glared at Kelly as she was looking down already, I know she did not mean to say all that but she did.

"Hey Kelly, are you okay, what just happen to you, from where that hate came, those harsh words for college, why, can you please tell me what happened to you", I asked her and she just looked at me with teary eyes, no, no Kelly, please no, you do not have to remind me all that, please.

"I can never forget what happened in the college Rose, no matter how hard I try, I just can not take that out from my f*****g my mind and it sucks you know, it really does, you have no idea how helpless I do feel, still I feel that helplessness, why the hell I was not able to help her and save her, I really wish I could do that, but now I just want Alice to be safe", she said and tears started rolling down from her cheeks, I know she was trying to hold them from so long and I was doing the same, trying hard to control them but I just could not do that.

"Shh, hey, shh, relax, Kelly, I am here with you, just relax, I am feeling the same as you, same helpless, the same feeling, just relax, that was passed, we can not change it, so you should not cry now, just relax", I said to her as she was crying hard and I just pulled her into my arms and she cried a lot on my chest and I just let her cry coz I know that she did not cry from long as she was just trying hard to control it, but it was needed, I know how suffocating she was feeling deep down when she was trying to bury the truth deep down in her heart, she was dying each passing moment so it was needed that she cry and let out everything she was hiding from so long.

"I am so sorry Rose, I am really sorry, it is your wedding the next day and look at me, I just ruined everything, I ruined your evening and I did not mean to do that, just trust me, I did not want to do that, it just happened", she said to me and cried even harder and I just wiped her tears.

"I know Kelly, I just know so well, and I am not blaming for you anything, you did not ruin anything, I am fine, see I am fine", I said to her and she was just looking at me and trying to say something but like this, it was so hard for her to say something.

"I am really sorry Rose, I could not help to control myself, I just miss her so much, I miss her every single moment Rose", she said and more tears fell from my eyes too, I was trying hard to coo her but it was getting really hard for me coz now I was feeling so weak again and I do not want to feel like that, I just can not do that, I can not be weak like this, so I just took a deep breath and wiped my face and then I wiped Kelly's face.

"Okay Kelly, enough, for now, you will not cry anymore, if she will know that we are crying like this, she will not like it and you know that, so stop crying now and be a good girl", I said to her and wiped her face tight and made her drink some water and just then my mom walked into my room without knocking.

"What happened Rose, you know that everyone was waiting for you at dinner, Alice also came to call you for dinner, then what is taking you so long, why you are not coming honey", my mom asked me and she was looking at me like she was trying to read my face and I just turned my head into the other direction, I know if she will continuously look at me like that she will know that I was crying so she just looked at Kelly and her eyes were still teary and mom got worried.

"Kelly, you were crying honey, you both were crying, why, what happened, is everything fine", mom asked Kelly and she instantly smiled at my mom.

"Yes aunt, we are fine, I was just crying coz Rose is getting married and then I will be alone in our group and I will miss her so much, so that is why I just could not control it", said Kelly and she is pretty nice with making lies.

"Oh honey, I just can understand that but you do not need to cry like that, I will also miss her but see most of the time I will be with her so it will not bother that much, but I will call you time to time and you can come to meet her anytime okay", said my mom to her and wiped her face and placed a soft kiss on her head.

"You okay Rose", mom asked me and I just nodded my head.

"Let us go dinner is waiting for us", said mom and we all walked down with her.
