One last time

Love takes off the mask we fear we cannot live without and know we cannot live within. -James Baldwin It’s hard to forget someone who was once very close to you but it’s harder to stop loving them. This is a story about a young and beautiful woman, Silvia Green who believes that one day she will find someone who will love and cherish her like she is the most precious thing in his life and Kevin Austin whose heart has been broken into tiny pieces by the only important person in his life. His trust and believe in true love also crumbled down along with his heart. What do you think will happen when a woman who wants to be and a man who doesn’t have any faith in love come together? Will they ever find love? Will Silvia manage to ignite the magic of love in Kevin’s heart again or will Kevin make Silvia lose her strong faith in love? ..... In the middle of the night Silvia woke up when she saw him sitting up straight in the bed. Placing her hand on his shoulder, Silvia asked, "What’s wrong?" Pulling her into his embrace, Kevin murmured, "Help me please. I don’t wanna be like this.” .....

*Sniff*

Burying her face on her pillow, Silvia groaned when she heard the doorbell. 

Wait, isn't the pillow suppose to be soft? 'What is this hard thing?' Silvia thought before slowly opening her eyes.

She widened her eyes in shock when she realised that she was snuggling against a pillow but against Kevin firm chest. 

She had her head placed on Kevin's chest and her left leg was curled around his stomach like a snake while his arm was wrapped around her waist. 

What happened to her pillow wall? Damn, she completely forgot about her rolling in the sleep habit.

So she actually crushed her self-made wall down and clutched herself to Kevin's body like a blood sucking leach. 

Burying her face on his chest, Silvia did not know whether she should cry or laugh. He would definitely make fun of her after he wakes up. 

Taking a deep breath, Silvia tried to calm herself down only to get intoxicated by the minty-chocolaty kind of smell his body was emitting. 

" Mint or chocolate?" Silvia murmured before sniffing is chest. 

" Damn it's so hard to tell." Silvia said.

Running her hands through his hair, Silvia asked," What shampoo do you use? Wait is it your shampoo?" before stretching her head and sniffing his hair. 

" It's the minty shampoo that I use and a chocolate flavoured shower gel." Kevin said in a deep voice.

Silvia, who still had her nose inside his hair froze.

Kevin actually caught her sniffing his hair. God how embarrassing. 

" And what are you Silvia? A dog? Who sniffs someone like that?" Kevin asked.

" I-" before she could say anything they heard the continuous ringing of the doorbell. 

" I'll go and check."Silvia said.

Trying to remove his hand from her waist, Silvia said," Kevin your-Ahhh." She squealed when Kevin suddenly pinned her down.

" You think you can just walk off after sniffing me like that?" Kevin asked.

Placing her hand on his chest, Silvia shook her head and said," I didn't mean to."

Inching closer, Kevin said," You didn't mean to but you did."

Silvia gulped and said," Kevin someone is at the door." 

" Hmm I know." Kevin said.

" You know that when someone is at the door, you have to open it right?" Silvia asked.

" Hmm I know." Kevin said.

" Then let me go so that I can open the door and see who it is." Silvia said before gently pushing him away.

Kevin shook his head and said," No first you tell me why did you sniff my hair and my body?"

Silvia sighed and said," I did not."

" Yes you did." Kevin said.

" We can discuss this later first let me see who it is." Silvia said.

Kevin thought for a while and said," Okay, I'll let you go for now." before getting off her.

Silvia quickly got down from the bed, and rushed downstairs.

….

Downstairs.

Someone was mercilessly torturing the doorbell button and which was irritating Silvia a lot.

Unlocking the door, Silvia said," Oh my God will you please-" 

Silvia stopped when she saw who it was. 

" What are you doing here?" Emily frowned and asked.

" Shouldn't I be the one asking you this question?" Silvia said.

Emily frowned deeper and said," I am here to take my things but what are you doing here?"

" Sil who is it?" Kevin asked.

Turning around, Silvia said," It's your friend Emily and her fiance."

When Emily heard Kevin's voice, she quickly dashed inside pushing Silvia aside.

Silvia was about to stumble and fall when a large pair of hands grabbed her arm.

" Be careful Ms Green." Richard said with a huge grin on his face.

Kevin narrowed his eyes and said," Mrs Austin."

Giving him a confused looks, Richard asked," Excuse me?"

Walking towards Silvia, Kevin slowly jerked off Richards arm and said," She is no more Ms Green, she is now Mrs Austin."

Emily frowned and asked," What do you mean?"

" Take your things away within an hour otherwise I'll ask someone to throw them in throw them away. I did not touch them because I had no intention of cleaning the mess that you have created in there." Kevin said.

Walking towards the kitchen along with Silvia, Kevin said," Remember you only have an hour."

" Are you both really married?" Emily asked.

Kevin smiled and asked," Do you want to see our marriage certificate?"

Pausing for a while, Emily said," Well Congratulations then. I am happy for you. Ah finally you are moving on." 

Ignoring Emily, Kevin asked Silvia," What do you want to eat for breakfast?"

Silvia smiled and said," Any think will do."

" Hmm do you want to eat my minty shampoo? I mean you were sniffing so I thought may be-"

Pinching his arm, Silvia said," Stop it."

Kevin chuckled and said," Come I'll make something for you." Before entering the kitchen with Silvia, leaving the other two unwanted people alone.

After they entered the kitchen, Emily entered her so-claimed room and started throwing things here and there.

Seeing her unruly behaviour, Richard asked," What are you doing Emily? Stop it." 

" Didn't you see how strange he was acting? And how can he get married? And also with that bitch? This is too much." Emily shouted. 

" Lower your voice, they can hear you." Richard hissed.

Pacing back and forth, Emily said," This is not something that I had wanted. No no how can Kevin get married? How can he get married with some random woman."

Richard smirked and said," Heh don't you understand what your ex is trying to do?"

" What?" Emily asked.

" He is just trying to show you that is happy and has found someone just like you. He is just trying to pretend and there is nothing going on between them. All of this is just an act." Richard said.

Emily nodded her head and said," Yes Yes you are right. He is just trying to pretend in front of me."

" Hmm just give him our wedding card and just observe him." Richard said.

Emily nodded her head and took our their wedding card from her bag before walking out of the room.

…..

Kitchen.

Hooking her arms around his, Silvia asked," Are you okay?"

" And why are you asking me that?" Kevin asked.

Silvia sighed and said," I know you are trying and I am happy that you actually were serious about that closure thing. But I also know that's it's difficult for you."

Kevin sighed and said," It's fine. I have so many other things to worry about that she doesn't bother me anymore."

" What other things?" Silvia asked.

" Like where should I take you for our honeymoon and where should you take you today and Ahh what should I cook for lunch." Kevin said.

As Silvia was about to say something, Emily entered the kitchen and placed the card right in front of them.
