“It was an accident Olivia , you didn’t mean to do it , it happened , all of us do mistakes in life , I too have done many mistakes in my life , every one of us do , don’t feel yourself responsible for the death of your mother , It was the Werewolf who killed your mother , your mother would have felt the same way as I felt yesterday , if you would have injured me seriously yesterday , I would have never blamed you” .
“But I destroyed my family myself ” .
“You still have family Olivia , I am your family and I am not going anywhere” .
“I love you Jack” she said looking at me , “you know Jack besides I am Werewolf , I possesses power even when I am a human”.
“Yeah I know that , when Belly or Kelly attacked you , it made a major cut on your hand and you healed it till I returned back , I noticed it but I wasn’t sure then but I am now”.
“Yeah you are right ,but I have more powers than you can even think , I can climb any building , I can keep my body warm even in this cold , I can survive here without warm clothes , I am very fast runner , I can do many things , once I slapped a child in my childhood he was immediately admitted In a hospital ” .
“Then I will try to behave in a nice way with you as I don’t have any plans of going to hospital now”.
“I am not going to do anything to you , I love you”.
“It some relief now” I said smiling .
Best time together
She laughed and kissed me , “I am not going to kiss you for long , and I think you know why”.
“Yeah I know why, by the way why did you slapped that boy in school”.
“He called me fatty”.
“What? ,were you fatty when you were in school?” .
“No”.
“Don’t lie to me”.
“All right I was , everyone is fatty in childhood , it’s not a big deal” .
“I wasn’t fat when I was a kid , fatty ” I said making fun of her .
“Should I slap you now ?”.
“As you wish fatty” I said and she kissed me , “now it seems that I have to call you fatty all the time because I am loving this ” .
“I also know how to kick” .
“Oh , but I am sure , you kiss better than you can kick” .
“I am impressed” she said smiling to me .
“Olivia you are the most beautiful girl I ever saw” .
“I am happy to have you Jack , you are amazing , you make things easier , you can do anything and you make people do what you want them to do” .
“Thanks, but I haven’t made you do what I wanted ” .
“Shut- up now Jack” . she said smiling .
“ Don’t slap me , so do you possess the equal powers every day?” .
“No,Jack my powers increases with the shape of the moon , when the moon is bigger in size , I am more powerful and when the moon is smaller in size I am less powerful , I am just like other human begins that day , if you will kiss me that day nothing will happen to you that day”.
“Then I will make a calendar based on the size of the moon for myself” I said looking at her calendar .
“Yeah you must make it”.
“Tell me one thing Jack , you saw me tuning into a Werewolf , that’s one of the scariest scene , and you know that I am a Werewolf , I can accidently kill you one day , still you are with me , how much do you love me?”.
“I love you that much.. ah if you willkill me I will not say a word, I love you this much , my love for you is eternal , loving you is my life ,I just want to be with you”.
“By the way dead persons don’t speak ,so why did you said that you will not say a word even if I kill you ,you would be already dead then how will you speak ,by the way I liked it”she said smiling .
“You liked it ?” I asked her .
“Yeah , I loved it”she replied .
“That’s why I said that , so what’s next?” I said looking around , “should we clean it?”.
“Yeah we should , I have made a mess ”.
“ yeah you have ,So lets start , lot of work to do here” I said and we stood up and begin to clean the house , there was her old skin “what to do with this ?” I asked her looking at it .
“Let me clean it , you throw the remains of the bed outside”she said
“All right” I said and I came out of that sound proof room .
“Wait Jack”she stopped me .
“Yeah” I looked back .
“Tell me one thing , did you saw me nude today?”.
“Uh , uh , yeah a little , just your ass and back” Iwinked
She turned at me and tried to show me anger through her eyes by making them bigger.
“I am not afraid of you anymore , I have seen you at your angriest time ,and your eyes just make me love you more ” I went near her, hold her and I kissed her .
She looked at me quietly .
“ I should clean it now ” I said looking in her eyes and I came out of the room .
“You should put a limit on the kisses” Olivia said when I came out
“Why did you said that ?” .
“You are kissing me randomly and again and again” .
“ What ? don’t you like that ” I stopped and asked .
“I didn’t said that , but I mean there should be a limit”.
“Oh , if there is no limit in my love , so why do you expect me to kiss you in a limited way”.
“come here then” she said , I went near and she kissed me “why should you kiss me every time , I can start too , I love you too ” We kissed at then we looked into each other’s eyes for a while
“I think you forgot something?”she said while she was still looking into my eyes
“What is it ?” .
“We need to clean this house”.
“ Oh yeah ” I said and I came out of that room , I went to her bedroom and I threw away all the broken furniture , I looked at Belly and Kelly , they were just sitting and looking at me as I was throwing stuffs out of the house
“ Why don’t you make them work ?” I came inside and asked.
“Do you really want me to untie them?” .
“Yeah you can untie them if you can make them work”.
“Aren’t you afraid you them now?”.
“I am not afraid of those two little wolfs , I have seen a bigger one yesterday” as I said Olivia looked at me in anger “I was just kidding , why I will be afraid of them ?, you can control them”.
“You are turning to be brave , very brave , I like that” she said and went near to them , “so do you really want me to untie them” she asked me holding the knot .
“Yeah sure” I said .
She looked into the eyes of those wolfs and said something and untied them .
They came running towards me , as they were running towards me , honestly , I got afraid for a second , as there was no way that I can even outrun them but strangely they begin to lick my feet
“how was that ?” Olivia asked laughing as there was still signs of fear over my face
“Enjoying yourself ? , It’s not funny” I said as I tried to distance myself from Belly and Kelly
“It is funny to me” She said winking
“So that’s what you told them to do?” I asked Olivia.
“No, they are showing their loyalty to you by licking your feet” she came near me and said .
“But it’s enough , now make them work” I was feeling uncomfortable with that too much licking that’s why I wanted them to leave me and I was still little afraid of them, she understood that , she looked at them and they went inside .She made them work .
“Wow you had a nice time with her , you are really romantic Jack” doctor said .
“Thanks , and yeah I am not that much romantic , It was just her beauty” .
“No , you are , when I first saw you , I didn’t thought that you were that much romantic , but you are that’s amazing , I am loving your story” .
“Oh , so yo
u are ?” .
“I have not even read a Novel more romantic than your story , so tell me more , I am loving now” .
They were carrying the broken furniture out and I and Olivia were just sitting holding each other’s hand and we were drinking the coffee .
“So do you know anything about the dreams we saw about each other?”I asked her .
“I don’t know that , I just know , I used to see you in my dreams, you used to look more handsome in dreams , you don’t look that much in reality tough” she said and smiled .
“Are you serious ?” .
“Yepp , I am serious , I used to dream you Bald , maybe you can go bald , then you will look amazing” .
“So , you are playing with me ?” .
“No I am not , she said and laughed” .
“But to me you look even more beautiful now, ” I said looking into her eyes .
“Maybe we got connected when we born” she said to me
“We may have , I love you” .
“I love you , very , very , much”. She said and kissed on my cheek .
“Ok , see these sisters are working well ” I looked at those two wolves and said , and Olivia looked at them .
“Yeah , pets sometimes gives you benefits”.
“I looked at my watch it was three now ,oh I must go now ” I said standing up.
“What ? no one is going to ask where you have been”she said holding my hand .
“Gerard will definitely , he would have told mom that I am missing and before police start searching for me I must go” .
“Yeah you are son of a mayor , police will start searching for you”she said and I looked back at her in surprise .
“How do you know that ? , I told you my father is a clerk” I asked her .
“You can’t hide anything from me Jack, I saw your father , when he came to leave you here , I have seen him on newspaper” .
“I am sorry for telling lie about my father’s job” .
“Its fine but why did you did that”.
“I didn’t wantedyou to know that I am rich , I just wanted to live with you like you are”.
“I liked them ,Jack” .
“What ?”
“Your feelings for me, since the beginning, you just don’t wanted me to feel inferior in front of you , just because of money , I liked that”
“Thanks for always being an understanding person, I love you”
“I love you too” She said and stood up and walked towards the door
“So I must go now”
“Yeah” she said and I kissed her on the forehead and I wore my coat and I begin to go .
“I will visit you soon ” I said and hugged her
“I will wait for you” she said and I left her .
Angry Adam, Gerard And Mom
I begin to go to the village , I met Adam he was going somewhere in his car , he stopped his car looking at me .
“Where have you been the whole night , I searched for you the whole night” he said .
“I am sorry , if you are still angry atme because I leftthe ladder and you fell down”.
“No , forget it , I am fine ,tell me one thing,where have you been?”.
“Ah ! I was in the woods” as I said that he came out of this car .
“What ?”he said , “tell me one thing , do you heard a voice of a Werewolf ?”
“What , no” I said making surprised face , “why are you asking this ?” .
“I am asking because I heard the voice of a Werewolf twice , I told my friends” .
“Did they believed you?”.
“No they didn’t” .
I found some relief as he said that .
“Why will they believe you , they did right , no one should believe you , why do you make stories of werewolf again and again?” .
“Let no one believes me but I am sure that it was a Werewolf I heard yesterday night , I will catch that Werewolf alive this time and everyone will believe me this time , they will have to, if they will see the Werewolf themselves , are you sure you didn’t saw the Werewolf yesterday?” .
“Ah ! , I . I am sure ” .
“All right , I am going to market to buy some traps for that Werewolf , I will definitely catch it this time , he said sitting on his car ,” .
“Do you want to come to the market with me ” he added .
“Absolutely not , I have work to do at home” I said and he looked at me with serious face .
“Don’t waste your time you will not find anything” I said to him as he started the engine .
“We will see ,the whole village will see and finally you will also see” he said as he drive ahead .
His words gave a lot of tension to me , they made me afraid , I got afraid for Olivia.
“I have to save Olivia from Adam , he will do anything to prove that there is aWerewolf in the village , he was right years ago , he will be right this time too , I have to save her ” I said and Gerard came running to me .
“Hey slow down why are you running?” I asked him.
“Why did you kept your phone switch off ” he said as he came near me , catching some breath
I looked at my phone it was broken down .
“Your mother have called me 100 times since tomorrow , she disturbed my whole beautiful night because of you”.
“ Did you really counted ?” .
“No but my phone did ” he said and slapped me .
“Hey ,What was that ?” I asked .
“Your mother said me to slap you , I just followed her order” . He said and slapped me again .
“Now what is this for ?” .
“This is for destroying my beautiful Christmas” .
“Give your mobile to me ” I took phone from him and called my mother .
“ Hey mom ” I said .
“Jackare you all right ?Your father and I were afraid , why was your cell phone switched off , we could not even eat the whole night”.
“I am fine mom and I am sorry ” I said .
“How are you? , are you all right son?” father took phone from her and said .
“I am fine absolutely fine, I am better than ever” I said , I still had a minor cut on my hand , which I didn’t saw earlier and Olivia also failed to see that cutGerard looked at the cut in my hand , he took the phone from me and he told mom about the cut .
“ Mam your son is not all right , some kind of animal has attacked him”he said on phone .
“ Give me the phone ” I said and took it from him .
“What is Gerard talking about Jack?, tell me truth Jack” my mom suddenly got angry.
“I am fine mom , Gerard is tellinga lie , it was just a dog , and didn’t I told you about the girl of my dreams”.
“Yeah”
“I was there with her , in her house and I am fine”
“I don’t think so Jack , come back to NewYorkit’s your holidays now” .
“No mom , there is no need, I am fine , I am doing good things in my life , I am really happy here, I am happy with her , did I forget to tell you her name is Olivia , she is really , really different”.
“All right then I am coming there to be with you” .
“No mom , just remain there”.
“What? you don’t want me to come there ? , you don’t want your mom to come there?” .
“No mom , I didn’t mean that” .
“So what do you mean?”.
“Mom it’s a difficultclimate , really difficult , it will be not easy for you to live here , so I am saying that you must stay there in new York , I don’t want to disturb you mom really”.
“I hope everything is fine with you there”.
“Yeah mom everything is fine , I will call you latter now , I love you mom”.
“I love you Jack” she said and I disconnected the call and I begin to go .
“Hey where are you going , don’t you want food?” .
“ I am not hungry” I said and threw his phone to
him .
“Where are you going ? , will you tell me anything ?” he ran after me and asked .
“I have some stuffs to buy” I said .
“What do you need now ?” Gerard asked as he was giving me money for that .
“I want many thingsand your money won’t be enough to buy all the stuff I need, so you better keep it in your pocket” I said and went away .
Renovating
I walked to the bus stop took the bus and went to the market by the bus ,I bought a lot of stuff that day , I did not only emptied my wallet that day but also the money I had in my account , it was dark when I returned , I went to Olivia’s house with a truck , Kelly and Belly begin to bark at the truck hearing them bark Olivia came out , she was surprised , I was standing there with a truck .
“Hey,Jack what is this?” she asked curiously as she came out.
“This is the truck , its used truck ,it’s very old , it’s a classic , do you like it ?”I said looking at the truck and then I looked at Olivia .
“Yeah it looks nice , I love vehicles with red and yellow color” she said as she came near .
“I need your help in something? Will you help me?” .
“Off course ,what’s that ?”.
“It’s difficult , can you do ?” .
“Yeah I can do anything for you” she said as she looked at me and I looked at her too thenwe went to the back of the truck
“Really ? You bought this all”she said looking at the things I hadbought for her .
“Yeah I bought this all really , this things are also real” I said and smiled .
“Was it necessary?” .
“Yeah it was necessary , how I could let you sleep on the floor , I need your help to carry this inside , so are you going to help ?” .
“All right , I will” she said.
We carried bed , couch and chairs inside .
“ They were really heavy ” I said at last as I felled down due to tiredness .
