Star Crossed

Alone in my wonderland

Alara

I stared at the blue sky above me and it never fails to amaze me. I am sitting on huge rock beside this river that falls from this cliff through the huge body of water below.

Behind me is where you can see a rain forest that has lake in it.

This is the place where I end up staying when I am asleep in reality.

Inside the forest there is also a library because I really love reading.

I spend my whole time alone in this wonderland.

Or so I thought.

I hear footsteps behind me. I turn around and what I saw made me astonished.

I saw A guy with a dark black hair, Tanned skin, hazel colored eyes , Luscious lips, Defined jawline, thick arched eyebrows and a pointed nose. "Welcome back, Anastasia." He said and smiled at me.

Yes... His lips are curled up with a smile but his eyes are saying differently

His eyes were sad, It's like they are tired of waiting for something.

It's not just his eyes that caught my attention that much... It is also the name that he used to call me.

Anastasia

"Pardon me, But I think you've mistaken me for someone else" I said to him

He looks at me with his eyes and the sadness that they were hiding became more visible.

"Anastasia....It is not funny" He said in disappointment. "I am Alara, and I am serious." I said. "Is that so?" he asked. I just nod.

"Who are you and why are you here?" I asked him. "I am Liam." he answered shortly. "It's a nice name." I said. "Someone special made that name for me. " He said. "Your mom?" I said. He laughs a little bit. "No." He answered shortly.

"oh.. " I said a little bit embarrassed for. Being unintentionally funny.

Liam

"Who are you and why are you here? " those words were like a stab to my chest as she said it. I guess she forgot about me. It's been twelve years since we met.

twelve years since I waited for her.

God I miss Anastasia.

"Alara? I think you need to wake up." I said to her.

"Oh... Yeah.. You're right. I guess I'll see you tomorrow." She said...

And with that, She's gone.

I am once again alone in this wonderland.

Alara

I woke up in a hard and dirty ground. I saw grandma sleeping peacefully beside me. I kissed her cheeks. She was covered with dirt just like me and we both stink.

People calls us a street rat and I simply don't give a f**k about it.

We do everything we can to get ourselves some food. We never steal.

We maybe dirty but our dignity is clean.

"Alara! I saw some farmers earlier and they said that they need some help! " Rose shouted from the distance.

I stood up from the ground and said goodbye to grandma before leaving.

I run through Rose and I finally reached her. "Good morning Alara." She greeted. "Good morning." as we walk I can tell that Rose noticed my uneasy look.

"Hey, is something bothering you?" she asked.

"No... Just tired." I lied. To be honest Liam's face never leaves my mind.

I think... I've seen him before. I just don't know when...

His name is also familiar... Liam...

I decided to brush it off and focused on my reality.
