Obsession ~A Hidden Love~

We can see a girl around 23 sitting on a couch looking at her hands which was holding a ring of engagement.

The smile on her face was unable to explain, the air pods were plugged in her ears as she was talking to someone

"I can't explain the feeling Dan. I am feeling so many things at a moment. Happy, nervous, sad" she said.

"I know my love and this happens I am also nervous but I am not sad like you." he said from the other side.

"But after the wedding we will move to America so obviously I will miss my mom and dad that is why I am sad." She said while he chuckled.

"I know Alana but if you want we can take them with us they can live with us here." he said while her eyes sparkled.

"Really?."

"Off course I can't see you sad you know that right."

"But they will not agree." she said making a sad face.

"Now this is on you if you can manage to convince them."

"Alana, come on go to your room and sleep it's quite late and tomorrow is the big day, go and have some rest." Mom said coming down the stairs.

"Ya ya I was just going." Alana said.

"God you kids, can't you wait for a day after tomorrow you can talk how much you want right?." Dan chuckles from the other side.

"I think we should sleep now or else your mom will kill me." Dan said from the other side.

"Yeah you are right" She said.

"Good night my love"

"Good night" Saying so they hung up.

"Now go to your room and sleep tomorrow is a big day." she said sitting beside Alana

"I am gonna miss you both." Alana said putting her head on her lap.

"We will also miss you as you are the only child of us." she said.

"Mom, why don't you both settle with us in America?." She asked with a hope

"Are you mad Alana this can't happen."

"Why not Dan also want you to stay with us." She said getting up.

"Alana We can't do this, it's impossible we will stay here only, your dad has a business to look after." she explained while Alana Sighed.

"Ufff you are so stubborn"

"Yes Yes I am now go and sleep." She got up kissrd her mother's cheek and left to her room.

Meanwhile In America

"Mom, what is this behaviour? You know I have an office to handle here and you want me to come with you just to attend a wedding? Are you serious?." The boy on a call said in anger.

"But Chris she is my best friend's daughter and also you used to play with her in childhood have you forgotten?." Her mother replied calmly.

"Mom it's 15 years old thing, I was a kid, I don't even remember her properly and I am sorry I can't come." He said sitting on couch loosing his tie.

"Chris please I promised her she wants to meet you and its just a matter of a day."

"Mom-" he stopped as the girl standing besides him snatched the phone from his hand.

"Hello aunty, how are you?." The girl asked.

"Oh Jannie I am fine, how are you doing?."

"Great! Aunty don't worry he will come I will make sure to send him." Chris shows her eyes and tried to snatch the phone but she stopped him showing hand.

"Are you sure?." His mom asked

"You know me right?." She said winking at Chirs while he sighed.

"Off course I know you well, thanks Jannie."

"The pleasure is all mine." she said and hung up.

"Jannie What is this behaviour? You know I can't go, I have so many meetings to handle." He said being frustrated. She held him by his neck pecking his lips.

"I am here to handle everything Chris, you don't have to worry, you go and enjoy, it's been so long since you were away from your parents they must be missing you." she said, trying to make him understand.

"You are right but you know I can't stay away from you." he said pulling her close.

"I also can't but You should go Please for me Look , I promised her." She said, showing her pleading look to melt him.

"Ok fine just for you." he said She smiled giving him a kiss of a few seconds.

Alana's POV

I am sitting in front of a mirror looking at myself. Today is the day finally, the 5 year Relationship of ours is going to get a name.

"Alana!" I turned around listening to mom's voice. She was in tears.

"Mom what happened? Why are you crying?." I asked to get up, panicked.

"You are looking so beautiful dear!." she said I sighed releasing a breath.

"Mom, you scared me." I said taking her in a hug.

"Anna, where are you-" Dad stopped as he looked at me.

"Alana?" He asked, not able to believe his eyes.

"Look, our daughter is looking so beautiful." mom said to dad. My cheeks were getting red.

"I am looking the same, my beautiful daughter." he too hugged me.

"She has grown so fast!" They were talking to each other and I was getting all emotional.

"Yes I can't believe this is my Alana, god bless you my child" dad said side hugging me again. I was in tears by now as I realised I am going far away from them.

"You made me emotional" I said, wiping my tears.

"Aww don't cry or else your makeup will ruin and Dan will get scare" mom said with a tease while I chuckled

"Mom!" I said and she laughed.

"Anna let's go down guests have arrive we should be there" he said while they both left.

**************

In the hall everyone was present there enjoying themselves while waiting for the groom.

"Anna?" She turned around listening the voice

"Oh Mary, finally you are here." she said, hugging her.

"Yes finally I am sorry for being late as you know Chris he takes time to get ready so..." Mary said.

"Chris? Is he really here?." Anna asked, looking around.

"Yes there he is, Chris!" Mary called out while he came near them.

"Hello Aunty, how are you?" He asked while she hugged him.

"I am fine Chris, how are you? It's been so long since I have seen you." Anna said.

"Yeah you know first I was busy with studies then business." he said trying to end the conversation as soon as possible.

"Yes yes my son has become very hardworking" Ronnie, Chris's dad spoke with a tease.

"Dad!"

"Ok ok you go and enjoy." He wanted to say something but just nodded and left.

"He has grown, A mature man." Anna said.

"Yes, Alana as well. I can't believe we came to her wedding, And you know what I always thought I would make her my daughter in law but as I got to know that she is in love with someone else I dropped the plan" Mary said expressing her feelings.

"I thought the same but as It was Alana's choice so I had to accept." This time it was Mart Alana's dad.

"Yeah" The conversation continued.

Back to Alana's pov

It's been an hour I am sitting here waiting for them. I was calling him but he wasn't replying maybe on the way.

"Alana!" I turned around to see Stella. She is my cousin as well as friend.

"They here?." I asked for the 20th time.

"No! Alana mom is calling you she said maybe they are stuck in traffic and you know everyone is asking about you and him so better you come down." She said While I nodded. I came down taking slow steps as Stella was walking beside me.

"See the bride is here!" I listened to the voices all over. I met everyone one by one!

"Aww Alana my dear child you are looking so beautiful" I turned around listening to the voice.

"Mary aunty I am so glad you came I was waiting for you." I said, hugging her.

"Of course How can I miss this, My daughter's wedding?" she said while I smiled.

I turned around searching for mom, I looked at them as dad was also there, but the expressions on their face tensed me. I went towards them as they were reading some kind of a paper.

"Mom, Dad?." They hide the paper instantly.

"Alana dear what happened?." They asked acting normal but I know something is fishy.

"What are you hiding?."

"Nothing to worry about it's just-" I snatched the paper from her hand. It was a letter.

To Alana,

I am sorry to say but I can't do this, yes I know I was the one who proposed you to marry me but as today is the day I lost all my strength, I just can't do this I am still not ready. I hope you will understand me. I can't face you, I just can't. I am sorry...

~Dan~

I was shocked, I lost my balance but someone held me.

"Watch out!" He said I looked at him, he was a stranger.

"Chris, please take her to her room." mom said while he nodded.
