827 Words
"Shelly.. Shellyyy... You are getting late again..." my mum is yelling again. It's not her fault, its mine. Actually am not a morning person. But what to do I have to get up early, as today am going to the big scary rosewoods forest. I have to do my senior residency there. It was my decision to select a place close to nature. I don't know why, since 3 yrs my heart always longs to go to that place. I was never been there and I love nature. Maybe because of that am dying to go there. Anyways I want to be away from all these hustle-bustle of city lives, constant nagging from my family of getting married. At least this one year I can be myself. After Shane left me I was never into dating anyone. I never felt to be with anyone. It's like when he left me he took a part of me from my self. I felt cheated and used. I don't know why he did that to me. I want my answers but from whom I will get? He left without leaving behind any traces. And I don't know whether to hate him or not. I thought he had his own reasons. Am ready to wait for him if he asked me, but no, he never asked me to wait. He said am not destined for him, am not the one for him. I am not the one then why did he love me, why did he made me feel I meant the world for him. " Shellyyyyyy.. You don't want to go to your big scary forest or what. Get ready soon. Albert will come anytime soon. Your dads waiting for you." my mum is hell-bent on waking me up.. Albert is my dad's personal driver. He has his own car. Dad has complete trust in him, he calls Albert for every of our trip."Am come, just 10 mins mummyyyy". I have to hurry... I looked at my reflection in the mirror. My hair is now long. Shane used to like long hair. But when I was with him mine was short hair. Now it's long. I often wonder what he will be like if he came to know my hair is long. Not only this there are many things that happened in my life after Shane left me. After each incident, I will wonder what Shane would have done if he was with me. Anyways let's get back to work. I have a flight to catch to rosewoods. After landing there I have to get a train to reach rosewoods forest. It's an isolated area. Only 100 families residing there. Since its nearby forest, nobody is willing to go there and work. You won't get a busy OPD there, but it will be calm and peaceful, I hope so. It's the constant yearning towards that place made me choose that as my place to work... Mum and dad were super angry with me. Being overprotective parents, they never allowed me to be anywhere not safe, and here I am going to a forest just to get away from my heartbreak. Let's see what is holding there. I went to the dining room. Dad was all ready to leave me to the airport. My sister Chelsey is pregnant for the 2nd time. " hey shellyyy. Good morning. All set to gooo... I will miss uuuuu" she was sad about my trip. Now she doesn't have anyone to gossip around. She is a college lecture. She is very beautiful and I must say the pregnancy glow is just adding to her beauty. " shesheee.. Shesheee... Don't gooo".. Cried my cute little niece, Aiden. He is now everyone's favourite here. Chelsy's husband is a leading lawyer working in New York. He often drives here every weekend. He can't spend time without Chelsey and his little munchkin. But mum insisted on looking after Chelsy since her maternity leave started. And now she is here with all her mood swings and high hormones. At least mum and dad won't miss me that much. I hope so. "Why are you going.. Are we that annoying that u want to leave us" mum was literally crying? "mum stop being so dramatic,. Its just one year. Those people also need some help right. And I will be here on Christmas vacation. So don't worry" My dad came to me"take good care, my dear. I will miss you. I know you have your own reason ". I smiled at him. After bidding goodbye to everyone I left. I still don't know why I choose this place. Is it because I want to get away from everybody's question about why I am single, I don't know. I just don't want any more dramas in my life. I need a place for myself so that I can think about my life. I just need peace. But little did I know, the real drama is about to begin........
