Chapter 68: Chapter 68

Water from the tap was flowing continuously making a sound so that Stella's cry would not be heard outside of the washroom as her mother was outside,  resting after taking her medicines.

Tears were flowing continuously from her eyes making her vision blurry but she did not stop herself from crying because the burden on her heart was too much to tolerate for now. It was becoming very heavy and she needed an urgent release before it exploded and ruined everything.

"Damn! Why on this earth did I meet you Damian? Why did I fall in love with you only? Why can't I imagine you with anyone else, even when I know I have no rights?Why does my heart start pounding fast in my chest whenever it finds you around me? Why does my sad mood always cheer up when you are around me?" Stella asked herself, looking at her image in the mirror.

" There are so many questions for which I don't have any answers. And I really don't know who will answer my questions and give my mind some peace. I don't know for how long I will be able to hide what's going on inside me from my mother because somewhere she knows what I am going through. If She could see my pain then why can't you, Damian?", Stella complained.

Stella was busy complaining and crying when she heard a knock on her door making her stop crying.

" Baby, your mobile is ringing continuously. Please come outside, what have you been doing there for so long? Are you okay? ", Stella's mother asked in a concerned voice.

"Yeah Mom.. Everything is fine.. Just give me two minutes I am coming.",Stella replied and waited for her mom to leave her room.

She knew if she saw her like this she could easily comprehend her situation that she was inside for so long crying as her eyes turned red and swollen. She washed her face and came out to receive the call and found Noone around making her relax.

She checked her mobile to see who was calling her late at night and was shocked to see Damian's 20 missed calls and 50 messages.

"Oh! My god, why was he calling me so many times? I hope everything is fine. I should call him back and inquire about this."Stella said and dialed his number to call back when her mobile got switched off due to low battery percentage.

"Oh! No.. Why God? Why do you always choose the wrong timing for me to play your games on me?", Stella complained looking above and making a crying face like a baby.

Stella started running here and there to find her mobile charger but as we all know when we need something very. urgently that thing disappeared from our eyesight. Same thing happened with our poor Stella too.

"That's why Mom always told me to clean my room otherwise, situations like this happened where I can't find my own belongings now.", Stella said, resting her hands on her hips.

Oh! No, I got wet from behind and I did not realize that. How will I realise stupid? When I was busy crying and complaining about him in the washroom that time this happened.

" First of all I have to find the charger and then have to change my dress otherwise I would catch a cold and I can't take that risk.", Stella started talking to herself again.

Luckily, this time she found her charger and put her mobile on charging and went inside the washroom to change her wet clothes.

"Oh! No.. Unfortunately, the whole floor is wet. I can't change here otherwise, I will definitely fall here, making myself all wet again. It's better to change in the room, switching off the light.", Stella spoke to herself and turned to leave from there.

She came outside and as thought she switched off the lights in her room and started taking off her wet clothes and wrapped herself in her favorite pink towel.

She was going to dress up in her night suit when all of a sudden she heard a voice on her window making her flinch at her place in fear.

"Omg! Don't tell me ghosts are knocking on my window to come inside. EVEN I can't switch on the lights to check as I am just in a towel. But I have to go and check there. ", Stella said in her fearful voice, darkness surrounding every inch of her room.

Stella fearfully went towards her window only to witness a tall man entering her room through her window which made her heart start pounding in her chest heavily.

"It's not some ghost. There is a thief coming inside my house at this hour of time. I.. I have to do something to save my house and my mother.", Stella stuttered and turned around in search of something heavy to beat the thief and found a flower vase beside her.

The moment the thief opened the window and came inside the room through the pipe, Stella attacked her from behind on his head but the thief was one step ahead of her or you can say more smart than her as he sensed her from behind and hold her hand to stop her from attacking on him but they got dis balanced making Stella fall on him and the thief fall on the bed holding her in his embrace.

Stella immediately closed her eyes in fear and was going to scream for help when the thief put his hand on her mouth to stop her from screaming for help.

"I think my end is near. Oh! No God. That's so unfair I can't even get some time to bid a goodbye to my mother. Who will look after her if something happens to me? How will her treatment happen without money? I didn't even get a chance to confess my genuine feelings to that idiot, stupid, dumb, Damian. And also I did not get to know the reason why he was calling me so many times? ", Stella complained to herself in her mind.
