12 Outre Happening

"Zeri why aren't you eating are you okay??" father asked.

"uuhm i'm okay father, i'm just not hungry" i replied by staring at food in front of me.

"why didn't you go with Remus, he came here to take you to Xenia"

"i don't wanted to go" i replied with frustration.

"But Aila insisted me to send you, and you've told her that you would come to stay, what's the reason why don't you want to go??" he questioned.

"i don't know father, i just don't want to go" i retorted and rushed to my chamber.

i got into my chamber and locked it, i was melancholized by his response i never thought Remus would ever respond so harshly towards me, his words in my head knives in my heart i was unable to get his words out of my head i buried my face into pillow and cried my heart out a cool breeze coming from my balcony awakened me from my dreamless sleep, i didn't know when i was drifted into deep slumber, i stood up from bed and walked into balcony cool breeze blowing away hair from my face, the woods from my balcony looked so peaceful they were just at the end of our gardens. since i was child i wanted to explore the woods but father disallowed me from going into woods, i just don't understand why everyone claim them to be dangerous, i will go in there someday proving everyone that if i make my mind no one can stop me from doing that, precisely Remus .

'' Princess you're still sleeping, wake up "

"wake up Princess Zeri I've bought break fast for you and you haven't eaten anything since yesterday come on wake up " Laura quoth.

"hhhmmm okay " i said in slumber voice.

"Princess can i ask you something??" Laura asked  whilst brushing my hair.

"yes, you can ask me anything and you don't need to ask my permission for asking me anything" i stated looking at her through mirror.

"why didn't you went with Prince Remus for sojourn to Xenia" she questioned.

"he denied taking me into woods, so i didn't went with him" i answered.

"Princess you don't know that they're dangerous, you by mistake also shouldn't enter them" Laura distressed.

"why you all say so i just don't understand, have you ever encountered anything dangerous in them" i asked in witty.

"i never gone into woods" Laura quoth.

"then how can you claim them to be dangerous, how can you judge them on other peoples rumors when you never gone into them,"

"Remus said the same he never gone into them and claims them to be dangerous, he even said me not to come if i don't want to. so i didn't went with him i never expected he would ever say something like that to me- i struggled whilst tears formed in my eyes " he hurt me so bad this time and i'm not attending the ball" i broke down into tears.

"calmed down Princess i can understand how hurtful it would be for you"

but i couldn't stop myself from crying, tears were unendurable.

i was in the Masquerade ball surrounded by people in masks while i was wearing red color mask which had beautiful red spirals falling down from sides of mask reaching my jaw line, my eyes searching for him everywhere but he was nowhere to be found.

"can i have a dance with you??" he asked.

his voice was familiar to me when i turned around to see i met with those brownish ember eyes, he was wearing reddish brown color mask and he looked so good.

"sure you can Bloom" i replied with smile.

he took my hand into his and wrapped his another hand around my waist and pulled me closer keeping mere distance between our bodies.

"you're looking enamours Zeri" he uttered.

"thank you Bloom"

we danced for wee minutes, i wanted to see him, dance with him and to be with him in his arms  but he was still no where to be seen i was missing him so much.

"excuse me" i said and tried to move away, before i could completely move away from him he grabbed my waist by his both hands and pulled me closer to him.

"where are you going? Zeri" he asked me by tightening his grip on my waist the closeness between us was making me uncomfortable.

"i'm thirsty i need something to drink" i acknowledged.

"okay i'll get wine for you"

"no i won't drink any alcoholic beverages"

"are you serious "

"yes i am very serious"

"i'll get something for my own " i quoth and got away from him.

i took a glass of juice and walked into the corridor which led to a balcony, i stood there alone thinking about him where he would be, i was snapped out of my thoughts by someone's giggle i turned around and went back into corridor, i saw Ashley giggling she was in the arms of someone i was unable to see his face because, his back was turned on me but he somewhat looked familiar from back, i hid myself behind the drapes and saw him turning around and when i saw his face i was hit by thunderbolt, i felt like floor beneath my feet was moved i can't believe my eyes it was Remus, he was kissing her on neck and whispering things in her ear on which she was blushing and giggling, my rage was raised to the peak of mountain and i can't stand seeing him doing all that things with her, i walked towards them and pulled him away from her.

"what are you doing with her" i asked him aggressively.

he looked at me like he never knew me, he looked so peculiar.

"he's mine and he's no more yours" Ashley babbled.

Remus stood beside her wrapping his hand around her waist.

"why the hell you're with her, you said you never felt anything for her" he pulled her so close to him and kissed on side of her head.

"please don't do this to me i love you so much more than anything" i said whilst tears slipping down my cheeks, his expression was like i don't care.

"what happened to you Remus"
