True Friends

Roseline's POV

For the past half an hour I have been busy decorating the wall for the celebration.

Liam left me alone by saying that he needs to look after something else. But I know there isn't anything. He just needed an excuse to run away from work. It is his habit since childhood. He runs away after giving his work to someone else.

I didn't mind as well. I love doing it.

As I reached the upper half of the wall, I realized my hands couldn't reach that high. So, I grabbed a stool and positioned it next to the wall before climbing up on it.

As I stretched my body to reach the corner, my ankle suddenly twisted, causing me to lose my balance. Desperately, I reached out for something to hold onto, but all I managed to grab was a frill that tore in the middle. The stool on which I was standing also lost the balance and I started falling back. The ground seemed to rush towards me as I prepared for a painful impact.

With my eyes tightly shut, I braced myself, fearing the worst.
