Ariana waited for three long hours on the shore, for him. He did not show up. She waited in for another three hours, after completing her assigned task, he still did not come to meet her, by that time. She felt upset. She made her mind, consoled her, saying that he would be busy with work. But it also her, wondering who else would be chasing him. Living a life in hiding, without peace or permanence. She could not imagine the pain in his heart to think that he has been wronged, his family has been brutally murdered. Her heart ached for him. Her tears whelming her eyes, for him. She realized how truly, madly and deeply she had fallen for the Phoenix. She took a deeo breath and she dived into the sea, to return back home before she gets caught.
"What happened?" He father asked her. She said nothing, shaking her head and tried to be as pleasant as she could.
"Just a little tired pa, a good sleep will do ne better," she said.
