Chapter 1 - From Where It All Begins✨️

Present day; New York

"...And they lived happily ever after" What rubbish love story it was, I said closing up the book, aunt Jennifer had gifted me on the 18teen birthday, I hated love stories for every possible reason on this planet Earth.

Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Serena Hamsler, just turned 18teen like a month ago. My name meant 'tranquil, serene'. It was name by my uncle Benjamin who believed that I will bring peace to the world someday. So hilarious right.

As I was going to put my book in the shelf, a strong wind blew and one book felt out of the shelf, it was book gifted to me by Uncle Benjamin at my 15teen birthday. Just before he left us and dissapeared God knows where.

I was really really close to my uncle, as he never had a family as he was too busy with his work( he was an archeologists and history scholar) he used to stay with us and he was really really close to me. He loved me and my twin Thomas a lot. But on the eve of my 15teen birthday, he gifted me this book and said," Dear Serena, you are stronger than you think, no matter how far or near we are, you and I you will always be eachother's biggest support system and I wish to see someday in life again." I laughed at his sentence that time, little did I know his words hold so much of weight.

He went missing after that day. My family, my dad left no stone unturned to search him but unfortunately he was never found. People in our family had started believe that he is no longer in this and won't ever return but I had faith, that he will.

I removed the book from the floor, hold it tight to my chest, suddenly the electricity of the whole city got shut. I could see something like a shooting star from the window which was like pink in color, suddenly the electricity came back, and I thought maybe it was imagination and I went sleep.
