I Found You ~5

 

Ryder’s palace

“Ryder” his mother called him. She is a lady of middle-forty with beautiful amber eyes and blonde hair. Ryder was in his room when his mother called.

“Ryder, get ready we are going to meet your Ela.”

“What!” he stood from his chair, “seriously mom, we were going to Ela’s house.”

“Yes” she went to her son and held his hand.

“I haven’t met for years_mom. I wonder what she would look like? And what about Jack. aren’t we gonna visit him?”

“Of course we will._Ela and Jack would really be happy to see you.”

“Yes, mom_ when are we going?”

“Now”

“What!”

“Yes her house is not far away. She lives here.”

“Really,_ i can meet her today.”

“Yes, haven't you remembered.”

“I forgot”

“So get ready in one hour.”

“One hour!”

“What you need more time.”

“Nooo, I will be ready in a second, mom.”

“Ok sweety.”

And he collapsed into his chair. He was so excited to meet his childhood friend, he was smiling looking at the roof.he then took an album from a drawer and happily looked. When his got Ela picture, he gently drove his hand and mumbled

“I hope Ela and Jack are a couple now.”

“Ella__i got to say you something” said the six-years old Ryder, running towards six-years old Bella, who was standing in his garden.

“ I have something to say”said both

“You first” spoke Ryder.

“Nooo you say.”

“Girl’s first.”

“Fine” Bella grabbed Ryder’s hand “Ron.”

“I think_i love you.”

“What! Seriously.”

“Don’t you like me?”

“No_i mean i like you as a friend, Ela”

“So”

“So_i can’t be your boyfriend.”

“Why__because i am ugly”

“No, you are cute. But__Jack__i meaan_i have a girlfriend”

And remembering that incident Ryder became sad. Pain can be seen in his eyes. He mumbled to him in a low and sad voice.

“I wish I could.” he spoke looking at the picture and then leaned, taking a deep breath“I hope Jack would be a better boyfriend than me.” and he smiled in pain.

Ron returns for his Ela

 Knock knock, there was knock at the door. Mrs Jennifer went to open the door. As she opened, she saw Ryder and his mother Mrs Oilivia. 

“Mrs Oilivia___Ron__sso many years after.”

“Yes Mrs Jennifer, we have traveled with Ron’s father all this year, so we got no time to visit.”

“That’s no problem” she looked at Ron. “Ela has always waited for you to visit her. She can hardly forget you.”

Ryder’s smile showed how happy was he to hear that “is that so?_is”peeing in “she here today.”

“Oo” but Mrs Jennifer's face fell down, but she quickly asked them in. She let them sit on the sofa and brough mango juice for them.

“Ron” spoke Mrs Jennifer

“Yes aunty”

“Ela has been to her friend’s family farm with her friends. She won’t be back for a week.”

“Ooo” Ryder became sad.

“But you can go to her room”

“Agh”

“It's on the first floor_ her door is decorated with daffodils.”

“Ouu sure aunty.” he stood up and ran to Bella’s room that is upstairs.

“So,how long are you here.” Mrs Jennifer asked Mrs Oilivia.

“Maybe for a few months or days.”

“Oh I see.” and so they continued their talk. 

As Ryder opened the door, he saw the pictures of Bella hanging on the wall. At first he thought he was in a dream. So he rubbed his eyes properly. But still he sees Bella pictures.

“Seriously, am i truly in love with Bella, that I see her everywhere.” he said in irritation. “At Least not for today.”

He went straight in and touched Bella's picture. He then looks around,but he sees Bella’s pictures with her family, with her classmates, with Jacob and Rosie and her travelling pictures. He then approached Bella's study table, and looked at her notebooks. He then noticed the childhood pictures of Bella with Ryder and Jack. There was also a solo picture of him on the wall. So to break this dream, he pinched himself hard.

“Ouch!” and then looked around. Nothing has changed. He then in this believed looked close to one of Bella’s childhood pictures hanging on the wall. Then he recognized the Ela’s blue eyes, brown hairs,pink lips coincided with that of Bella’s

“so_Ela_is only_Bella. What!” he clenches his hairs hard “so_ i am in love with Ela.” and he collapses to the chair. “What Ela_Bella_o my god.” he then noticed a notebook, seems to have a daffodils image on it. He drew the notebook from the below. It’s a dairy, it's Bella’s dairy. He opened the notebook. There was his childhood picture, below which is written.

“Why   can’t   i   forget   you,

                       Why  can’t  i  stop  loving  you

    Why  why  why!                                          ”

He turned the pages. It seems like, in this diary she wrote about her feelings for Ron and what pain she is in. she wrote that 

“How hard I try to forget him, my feelings for him never fade.. Sometimes i just wishes that he returns for me and say I love you”

 She has written a lot about her feelings for Ron. where she even congested 

“ I have waited for him for 16years, will he return to end my wait? I believe my love will make him return to me one day” which actually moved Ryder’s heart. Tears rolled down his eyes. He mumbled to himself

“So that’s the reason__you never dated anyone___Ela___you are such a fool.____all these years_you loved me__and__i___left you for Jack.”

And there he remembered an incident from his past with Jack. He and Jack were playing with Belle in Jack’s garden. Suddenly Bella’s mother Jennifer called her.

“Ela , come girl, time for your meal.”

“Yes mom” Bella rose and walked as she said “bye guys. See you tomorrow.”

“BYEEEEEEE” both Ryder and Jack waved their hands to her. As Bella went off. Jack suddenly spoke

“She is so beautiful.” 

Ron looked at Jack and noticed that he was blushing.

“hey__Jack you are blushing.”

“What!” Jack was shocked

“Heiiiii, Jack__do you like her?”

“what!___Noooooo I don't” Jack denied, but he started to have goose-bumps on his hand. Ryder noticed that.

 “You do like her,” he teased Jack.

“What! Nooo” Jack blushed more. There was a little smile on his face he couldn’t hide.”

“You do” and Ryder tickled him “you do” and Jack shouted “Hahhaha_stop ronnhahahha_no_stop it____haahaa_Ronnnnnnnnn_'' tears rolled from Jack. At Last he confessed “okk_ok_i do i do_haha_stop”

“Really Jack” Ryder stopped tickling him. But this time Jack tickled him “Jack_jack__no_heeehahahha_please___sorry sorry sorry JACKKKK__HAHAHAH”

“Why don’t you like her, Hae” spoke Jack as he tickled Ryder.

“Yes___heeh____jACK_STOP I WILL die”

“So why are you teasing me ha.” Jack stops tickling Ryder. Ryder roses from the ground and removes the grasses.

“Off course, I too like her, but the way you blushed_ha_was funny for me”

“So_you want more tickle”

“Nooo__so when are you proposing to her.”

“Ooo_i don’t know_” suddenly Jack became sad “i don’t think she likes me.”

“Why” Ryder sat down

“I think she likes you.”

“Me”

“Yes_____but whatever” he gave a big smile to Ryder “we are friends__and whoever she chooses among us, i will be happy.”

“Are you sure?”

“My mom says that___ i just want Ela to be happy.”

“That’s my friend.” and Ryder jumped over Jack.

Ryder laughed, as he thought of Jack. He then turned the page.

“Today is my 23rd birthday and Jack told me that he likes me and he kissed me.”

“What!” Ryder, as he read the lines, he stood up from the chair. He then read

“He asked me for a date. But I refused him. I felt bad for him. But he is right sooner or later I have to move. I guess I should move now. Maybe now”

“Nooo, Ela.” he kept the diary aside. And began to roam in the room.

“What should I do?_____”he sat on Bella’s bed “I really like Bella___but she hates me___oooo we did i even try to kiss her that day___oooo men_____i shouldn’t have done that, Belle hates me because of that_____ooo” he lied on the bed “men____if she really move to Jack wait waitttttt_” he rosed “why am i zealous__all these years i already assumed them to be couple_so_WHy am i zealous.” he collapsed to the bed “seriously”.

“ROOOOON” Mrs Oilivia called Ryder.

“Yes MOMMM” Ryder roused up from the bed. As he walked to the door, he clicked every photo of Bella and their childhood, that were hanging on the wall. He even quickly took photos of some pages of Bella’s diary.

“RON, we need to go.” as his mother started walking up. He quickly rushed to the door 

“Yes mom”

“Come on, we must go.” and she headed down.

“Yes” he for the last time had a glance of Bella’s room and left.
