Enchanted Love

“You know what? I love him” Clara screamed at her father as everyone was glued to the spot. Clara didn’t even flinch once when she snapped like that. She was very hurt from inside.

“Clara?” Her mom, Bella gasped as she closed her mouth with her hand. Her daughter can do anything but going against her father would be the last thing anyone can expect.

“Clara” Ron screamed as angry tears formed in his eyes. He never thought that his daughter would do this.

“Pops, I can make decisions for my life. I wished that you would give these rights to me to decide what is right for me.” Clara spoke, wiping her tears. Bella could see the end of this fight already. She wanted to save them from that but it was too late when she heard the next thing from Ron’s mouth.

“Get the hell out of my home,” Ron screamed out of his lungs. He completely lost his temper when he saw this attitude.

Clara smirked at her father as Bella closed her eyes helplessly. She couldn’t see her family shattering like this.

“Of course Dad” Clara stressed the word dad instead of pops which she used to call him always. Clara doesn’t want to think about anything else as her mind is fully occupied with only the single word, “Selfish Girl”. How can her father call her that?

Since she was five, she did everything to make her pops happy. She loved him that much and she chose medicine only for her father’s dream. But today, she is completely broken hearing such mean things from her dad’s mouth.

If we suppress our likes and dislikes, one day it will explode like a volcano and will hurt everyone around us, especially our loved ones. Clara never expressed that she is doing those for her dad instead she has done things as if she is liking those. Her father never forced her for anything.

The walls of the home screamed loud while the members were mum gazing at each other.

“Uncle” Alex stepped forward to at least try to sort it out in his style.

“Please. We shall talk it out. Don’t be angry. I will bring my parents too. Don’t judge anything without knowing please, Uncle” Alex commented in a serious tone. Bella could see the maturity in his voice. But she knew that this pops and daughter wouldn’t have paid attention to that innocent soul as they are busy blaming each other with their stares.

“Uncle” Alex tried again but before he could say anything further, a loud sound echoed all around.

“Everything is because of you” Ron spoke as he slapped Alex.

“It’s” Alex tried to explain but again he gets slapped on the other side. Alex held both cheeks as if burning like hell. Alex looked at Clara as he knew why she was this angry. This man is surely one piece. How can anyone slap like this as if he is slapping any cow?

Clara came in front and grabbed Alex to save him from further insults. She holds his hands.

“Let’s leave from here” Clara commented without taking her eyes off Ron. That was a shock to everyone. Ron and Bella were shocked to hell. Is she going to leave the home for real? Alex blinked to absorb the words of Clara.

Ron wanted to stop her but his ego was so big that he turned his face making Clara walk towards the door. Bella stood there with no emotions. These people didn’t even look at her side to know what she wanted to do. Bella is kind of hurt with their reactions.

Clara grabbed Alex and entered the cab.

“There is no one for me from now on. I have no one” Clara gets emotional as Alex pressed her hands for support. He gently hugged her from their side to show that he is there for her no matter what.

“Everything will be alright. Now please stop crying.” Alex wipes her tears which were flowing unconditionally.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

“I thought my pops will ask me if I like you or not. That’s why I have asked you to talk to my dad. But he didn’t even think to learn my opinion. Instead, he just slapped me. He called me selfish?” Clara sobbed hard as she recalled everything. Alex listened to everything silently. He doesn’t interfere to give his thoughts about whatever happened.

“Where should we go?” Clara asked as she saw the cab stop somewhere unfamiliar to her. Did she take the decision hastily? She looked at Alex who had a very calm demeanor.

“Relax. It’s my home. And I am not living alone here.” He cleared her points as she sighed in relief. He smiled at her and knocked on the door.

Frank opens the door casually and gets shocked to see them together at this time in front of his home.

“Clara. Come inside dear” Frank invited her, normally hiding his fear. He looked at his son with anger. Alex signalled as if he knew nothing.

“I have always feared that you would bring any girl at night. But didn’t think that you would be bringing for real” Frank whispered near Alex as Alex pouted with a frown. He is not at all fault in this.

“Is there anything serious? I mean you are here at this time?” Frank asked gently and checked the kitchen where his wife is cooking for dinner. He is scared. What if she came to see Clara with Alex?

“Dad, Clara left her home,” Alex said calmly while Frank jerked from his position. His crazy son did take one girl to his home even without thinking about his mom who is equal to the tsunami.

Before Frank could say anything, a big pan flew towards them at high speed. Alex jumped from his position to save himself.

Jenny who threw the pan stood there with fire glares. She glared at both her husband and son who were gulping in fear.

“Don’t you dare to enter my home? How dare you?” She yelled at her husband while he hid behind his son.

“Mom, listen to me please” Alex came forward to calm down his mom while she threw the flower vase towards him again making him close his mouth.

“I am sorry. I shouldn’t have come here at this time. I am sorry. I was” Clara realised what she had done at the peak of anger. She is standing in his home and she didn’t even think about his parents who might get angry.

Jenny turned to her left side where Clara was standing with her head hung low. There is no doubt that Jenny instantly gets attracted to the girl. Clara is like a princess in the modern era. Perfect face with innocence which touched her heart instantly. On top of it, tears in her eyes made Jenny’s anger meltdown instantly.

“Sh” Jenny closed Clara’s mouth with her fingers as she ran to her side.

“Don’t cry dear. What happened?” Jenny asked all concerned while Frank and Alex stood there all shocked to see this side of Jenny. They were expecting her to yell at them and even grab Clara out of their home like an evil mother in law. But she was caring for Clara as if she was her daughter.

“Can I stay here just for this night,” Clara asked, blinking her tears away. Her mind is totally blank. All she needs right now is a little space to empty her mind and heart. She needs to cool her anger head.

Jenny gently grabbed her to her room to make her comfortable.

“You can stay here all the time. Don’t worry dear” Jenny left the room to give her some space.

“Omg, Alex. How did you meet such a doll?” Jenny asked, jumping like a kid?

“She is beautiful and omg what a skin. She glows even in her crying state” Jenny expresses her thoughts about Clara after a five minutes conversation with Clara. Jenny has done psychology and she knows exactly how people are when she talks with them. Now she is really impressed with Clara and likes her like anything.

“Frank, you can sleep on the terrace tonight. Don’t you dare to come near me. And forget about the dinner too. You have hidden this matter from me. So you deserve this” Jenny announced her verdict as Frank pouted like a kid.

Jenny gets to know about Alex and Clara at the party itself and she was very angry with Frank and Alex for hiding this from her. But when she saw Clara, she knew that she was the one for her family.

“And you. If you tell me your love story, I will forgive you” Jenny commented to her son who is very excited to tell every detail to his mom. Frank slowly moved to the terrace with the hope that his son would join him there. Alex forgot about that soul who was waiting for him on the terrace as he was interestingly telling his story.
