Chapter 5 - Tendency to run...

In those 1 year 5 month we learned many think about each other like she didn't like eating sweets, even chocolates I don't understand how can a young girl like her didn't like chocolates, candies etc whereas there was no end for my sweet tooth and we often quarrelled each other about our restaurant choices.

What I didn't realize was I didn't know much about her life she had before she met me and neither did she ask for my past and here I am standing looking at the dead body of a young girl who became my best friend, my little sister, my everything and I didn't even know what happened to her.

I looked at the woman standing beside me and asked her in a hoarse voice " what happened to her?" she took my hand led me outside. We sat side by side in a hospital chair she was silent for a while as if collecting her thoughts about what she wanted to say.

" I met Key 10 years back when I was 15 and she was 8" I looked at her confused she understood what I was asking and replied " she was Kiera for everyone but for me she was Key I used to tell her she was Key to my happiness" I smiled when I heard how apt her description was she was a magical Key that brought happiness to all but now my heart is locked forever as my Key was lost"

Maya continued " we were sent to a private orphanage in the name of hostel my mom left me but arranged this prison for me to survive when I was 7 years old. I knew all does and don't but Kiera was innocent she didn't know the dark corners of this bright hostel, she was this bubbly girl who talked to everyone thus got some unwanted attention which she shouldn't have experienced.

I knew where this was going and I stood up not prepared to hear that, she held my hand as I was ready to leave I didn't want to know this ugly truth that she may have experienced. She was angry and annoyed at me "why do you have the tendency to run when you experience some bitterness in life, you can run but then you don't deserve to know about her"

she stood up and prepared to leave " when you are not a coward contact me this is my card and as for Kiera I will make preparation for her you Don't have to worry about that". Echoes of her heels rang in the corridor and surprisingly it matched with my heart beat I analyzed what she said and I was not surprised to find that what she said was true.

I shouted " Stop tell me all about her I want to know I promise I will do anything and everything for her" I was anxious I didn't want my only link to mysteries of Kiera to leave me. she looked at my eyes as if testing my resolve and sat down beside me with a serious look she started " let me tell you what happened 10 years back"
