Episode 14

"You are stopping yourself from being happy..." He spoke almost in a whisper.

Charm pulled her arms away from his and held his cheek.

"Yes and ..I am someone that is more afraid to hurt anyone..."

He looked into her eyes.."well Charm...I am Afriad of losing the one I love" There was a short pause as he said slowly..."I Have feelings for you Charm...I always did..."

She stood up...it was too late.... or was it too early...She had to go with this...she searched inside her for some anger...she wanted to be mad at him...to be annoyed... She kept wondering...If the person then that had said their forever ended...was the same person now. The attraction could only pull her out of her limits....She didn't know if she still loved him... all she knew was that everything was good that Moment...She, Scott and the Garden... Pulling her in for a planned Kiss...He hesitated...but she pushed forward and let her lips meet his...Their tongues..meeting each other..More passionately and longer...The attraction burning within them...Charm could feel the adrenaline rush...Her Heart Beat faster...she missed this...his lips, his touch...this was the only thing that cleared her mind she felt... as his hands grabbed her body to his...She felt once again how it feels to be yearned for...she felt like Scott's only hope at that Moment...her anger hidden within...almost half buried...this was her definition of pure bliss...he was her drug and only she knew that.

"Soo are you guys dating now?"

Trisha asked as she handed her a cup of coffee in the Crunch restaurant...they both sat opposite each other....on the table thinking.

"He confessed his feelings...and you kissed..so...it means.."

"But I didn't give him an answer..."

Charm said looking down at her feet.

"You're crazy..did he ask you for anything?"

"No"

"Good his short term love is unconditional..."Trish added rolling her eyes.

Charm smiled remembering his favourite poet's words about unconditional love.

"You have to get close to Scott ...so close that hurting him in the end ... would make Rache happy..."

Charm... thought about that.... would hurting Scott be easy...she stared at Trisha...seems her best friend seemed really interested in getting rid of Rache.

"So your saying that the only way to get rid of Rache is to do her bidding?"

Trisha smiled at her"Obey her... simple"

When charm got home...she saw her mum crying. It at first Seemed to Charm that maybe she and her step Dad had a quarrel. She kept asking her mum...What was wrong, The terrified look in her eyes gave Charm a sudden frightened Chill.

"Mum you've got to tell me...what happened?"

She cleaned her tears"Charm it's nothing...go to your Room..."

"Mum!!....quit acting this way...tell me!"

At first Charm's Mother didn't want to say anything... It made Charm a bit scared...she looked around for her step dad but he was no where to be found...then the doorbell rang.

Slowly Mrs Linda Smith....stared at the door...she seemed terrified, Charm picked up all the orped strength left in her and Moved to the door.. opening it.

She was shocked as she saw who stood there smiling at her. At first she seemed to be lost for words...what was happening...The figure that stood before her...The same smiling face ...which she last saw years ago was standing right in front of her... Her tongue felt Dry....she wasn't able to talk....the figure had to spur her, it came boldly the voice visibly heard.

"Malia?....is that you?"

Hearing this Charm immediately stepped back in shock leaving the door handle.... there was only one person in the world who called her by that name...only that person knew her by that name....that same person was the first Husband to her mother....That same person was carrying the title of being a Father to her....that same person abandoned she and her Mom...years ago to live with another woman.

What was he doing here....and what did he want....Rage and anger consumed Charm...she glared... at him no longer in shock but in Total disgust....she found her voice finally...The anger gave her one.

"What do you want?..."

The figured shifted his head to look in as Linda ... Charm's Mother approached the door too...Charm turned to stare at her mum.

"Mum...what could this man be doing here?"

Linda eyes were filled with tears...she didn't reply Charm she spoke directly at her ex husband" Christian....why don't you just leave us alone... please we don't need this now....we.."

Charm got irritated....more than annoyed she was furious...why was mum begging him...she wanted to shut the door...She hated this Man...he was the worst...

"I believe we have a lot to discuss...Linda" his voice was firm and unaffected...He was serious now. Linda sighed "Charm...go to your Room"

"Mum!"

"Just go....Now!"

Bitting her lip she moved angrily upstairs...

What was happening....This didn't happen before...Why was he here... Why was her present past turning into a present future...she was confused...All these things seemed new to her...her thoughts went wild...What was she going to do....Was this All Rache's doing...she thought about summoning her.

"Rache...."charm mentioned her name hoping that she would appear..

Unfailingly she did appear.

Her outfit was changed and it seemed to be a purple gown she was wearing....Rache was more beautiful and real as the day passed by...Her wings were much bigger and her gold ornaments seemed to shine as brightly as a sun. Even her hair seemed longer... beautiful...she was humming a Certain song...and played with her fingers as she leaned on the desk at the corner's of Charm's room. Charm hadn't noticed her at first because her head was buried in her arms...lost in a maze...she wondered why there were changes to her plot...her story....she wondered why different events began to occur....She didn't feel in control anymore... Something was fishy and she knew it...that was the first time she saw her mum that terrified. Suddenly She saw bright light in her room and slowly raising her head she turned to the direction the light was emitting from...Her jaw almost dropped as she saw Rache...to be honest she almost forgot who it was ...but recalling herself...she Knew that the overwhelming look of Rache was wayy less important than...The problem at hand.

"Rache..."

She mentioned her name... looking up Rache smiled.. and replied"You have questions.....The questions you are the reason to....The questions you are to answer for"

Looking confused Charm stared at Rache..."what is that supposed to mean?....my Father... a useless human being shows up after how many years and I f**cking have no idea why...he is here....and my mum?.... She's terrified like she's hidding something...how do you expect me to feel...this is the worst suspense ever!" she ran her hands through her hair..."Rache tell me why all these are happening"

Rache stared at her..."You made many minor changes so Major events began to occur...hahaha"

She stood up and moved close to Charm... taking her by the arm...she took her close to the window."Look outside...and flow with the show..."

Immediately she vanished into thin air....Charm gasped as she saw what was happening and ran downstairs.
