The Cursed Girl

Chapter 22

Gwen

"Are you okay?"

"I am okay. You don't have to worry about me." She nodded but he face was telling that she was not at all satisfied with my answer. "Tina I am fine and don't worry I won't do something crazy. Maybe it was just my fate to know something which I might have never knew." She sighed.

"So what are you going to do? Will you go to Italy?"

"I don't know let's just see what will I do. I guess I will try to discuss this with uncle and aunt first."

"Don't discuss with them about this just now. Take your time first. It may could be possible that your mother and his sister used to look very close but didn't really have a relationship." I sighed at her concern. I removed her hand from my shoulder and hold them between my palm.

"Tina don't think that I am weak now. I am strong enough to face what is coming in my way. Now I know that there is no time for me to fall back and cry all my life. Now it is time for me to face what I had to face long back ago and now it is the time and if you keep worrying than I will trembled. You keep your faith strong." I said and she nodded and caressed my face.

"Well you know I always wanted a daughter like you who is well disciplined and sweet like you. Well maybe I wasn't really lucky enough to have a daughter like you that is why I wanted Leandro to marry you and become my daughter in law but I am ill fated. I hope whatever decision you make will be good only and won't make you fall in the trouble." I nodded.

"I won't let you down."

"Whenever you will be needing me, you know where to find me."I nodded and she went to her home and I sighed. I looked at the pendent which was in my hand and I was holding it tightly. What is going on around me is unknown to me but I am determined to find it so that I don't  want to live in mystery. I want that everything come in the light. I looked at my watch and found that lunch time was also gone and I sighed. I was really late and my stomach was growling but thank god that I had took some bit of the tea and cake that was offered by Mr. Jefferson. I still can't process what he told me.

"Can it be possible that you are my niece of my long lost sister? You look exactly like her and as much as I remember you have the exact same colour eyes which are kind of rare over here. and these eyes colour she had inherited from her mother only"

"You mean my leafy green eyes?" I asked him and he nodded. I don't really know what I should say to him.

"Don't be uncomfortable Gwen. I don't really want to make you uncomfortable. But this is just my assumptions." 

"Mr. Jefferson, I don't really know what I should say because I had never been in this kind of thing before but I guess now this thing had arrived than I will surely consult my grandparents and will let you know." He nodded.

"Please take this card and when you find you surely tell me. Because I really wish this thing to become true. I couldn't have great time with my sister but I want my niece in my life."

"I hope....." I don't really know if I should say this or not but if this become true than what. "what you wish become true." He nodded and we left. 

I had never really thought that I have to look forward to see something like this. I want to talk with someone about this and I only know one person with whom I could talk about this. Tsetan. I come inside and found aunt was picking up the dishes. I shouldn't be asking her for the food now. Because I have already missed it and when I didn't get the breakfast than I guess I shouldn't really except for the lunch as well. I skip that. I will go out and will feed myself. I started to look for Tsetan for that firstly I have went to his room but I didn't find him there and I went from here and there but didn't find him anywhere and then I have found him coming inside through the door.

"Tsetan." I called out and he looked at me and then looked away and started walking away and this is kind of weird.

"Tsetan." I again called out for him but he didn't even look back. I ran towards him and block his way and he looked away.

"Tsetan what is wrong?" He didn't said anything but get aside and started to walk and I hold his hand and he stopped and he looked at our hand first and then on me and that too with cold eyes.

"What is wrong Tsetan? What I have done that is wrong?" I asked him while I was holding back my tears and I don't know when they will come out of my eyes because they are traitor. He jerked off his hand.

"I have just realized my mistake and want to avoid it." He looked at with so much hateful eyes.

"Is that mistake is me?" My voice was at the edge of breaking but I hold on myself. He looked away.

"Yes, I don't even want to face you. Everyone was right about you that you are a curse and can never bring happiness in anyone's life but will end up destroying everything." These words I have heard so many times but when it had come from his mouth I am feeling so much devastated. I don't really know what I should say and I looked down and one tear roll down and I looked up at him with mocking smile. 

"You have realized....."I gulped. ".....soon. Now I guess we would........." I looked away as I didn't even have the courage to say this. "........part our ways." After so much patience I have finally reached to where I was supposed to be. Why the hell I was still having the hope on him? "It was really a mistake..........." I looked at him and he was still looking away from him. ".......It was really a..........mistake." I said and I couldn't hold on it anymore and turned back and run away through the doors and ran and ran till my feet could take me. I come across the crowd and started to find a isolated place and found a park which was having less people. I sat over it.

"Yes, I don't even want to face you. Everyone was right about you that you are a curse and can never bring happiness in anyone's life but will end up destroying everything." 

I thought that today I will light up my heart but instead my heart got more heavy. Will I die with this heavy heart which doesn't even pour out so many things out of it and always carry another pain? I took out the pendent. Why my dad had bought this pendent? Was this for my mom? But this was the not the thing which was roaming inside my mind but Tsetan's words and I didn't realize when the silent sob turned loud. Why everything has to be happened with me only? Then I suddenly remembered what I have told to Tina.

"Tina don't think that I am weak now. I am strong enough to face what is coming in my way. Now I know that there is no time for me to fall back and cry all my life. Now it is time for me to face what I had to face long back ago and now it is the time and if you keep worrying than I will trembled. You keep your faith strong." 

Here I am seeing myself weak. I wiped my tears and hold the pendent tight in my hand. I can't cry more. I can cry afterwards but before that I have to find mysteries and even if I have to do that alone than I will do it.
