Epilogue- You Are My Serendipity!!!!
Anna
I get out of the car, with the bouquet of daisies in my hand. Pushing the big iron gates, I make my way inside. I place the flowers on the tomb and stand back looking at his grave. The words inscribed on them 'A loving son, brother and friend, who will hold onto your heart forever.' He would always joke about it.
"Whenever I die, I want these words on my stone, 'Here lies the soul of the greatest lover the mankind has seen.' " He would say laughing, to always receive a smack from me and others. No matter how many years pass by or how much my life has moved on, he would always remain in my heart. I has been ten years since Nathan left me and everyone else.
My fingers trace around the necklace on my neck. The same one that Adam found. I take the spherical pendant in my hand, and open it to take out that small piece of paper that he kept for me. 'I will love you forever and always' scribbled in his messy handwriting.
Strong hands wrap around my waist and turn around to look in the green eyes of the man whom I have been married to for past six years and wish to always remain together for the coming years.
"Do you want to stay more or should we go?" He ask looking at my face.
"Yeah, we should go. I am done." I say, smiling at him.
Every year on Nathan's death anniversary, Adam would bring me to his grave at leave me alone. I remember the first time, he brought me here. Ever since Nathan died, I had never been to see him. I just couldn't let myself go through all the pain. Adam just called me and told me that he was coming to pick me up. I had no idea about where we were going or were about to do. I kept asking him but he refused to tell me.
Then his car stopped at the graveyard and I felt a chill run through me. I couldn't bring my feet to walk to his grave. I remember feeling wrecked, seeing his grave for the first time. I cried and cried on my knees, saying things to him, asking him why he left me. Adam just held me in his arms until I stopped crying. I introduced him to Nathan. It was like Adam was breaking all my walls down and finally I was letting him.
His lips capture mine for a quick kiss before moving away. He takes my hand in his and we make our way out of the cemetery. My hands unconsciously reach out to trace the faint lines of scar on his forehead.
"It doesn't hurt me anymore, you know. It's been years." He takes my hand in his before kissing the back of it.
The day still imprints on my mind when Adam came to meet me, climbing up through the pipes. I ran away on my own will but as soon as I got away, feeling of emptiness surrounded me. And seeing Adam in front of me, smiling cheekily at me, I couldn't stop the feelings coming over.
When I saw him lying unconscious on the road with the pool of blood around him, I couldn't help but blame myself again for that happened. If it was not for the necklace, he wouldn't have turned back and got hit.
I sat on the seat kept in his hospital room the whole time, until he woke up after two days. I thought, he would hate me and blame me. I felt myself feeling as the bad omen again. I stood back in the corner of the room when he was meeting his family. And then his gaze landed in me. We kept staring at each other without realising that everyone else in the room left.
"I am sorry! It is all my fault." I aid walking towards him and sitting on the chair beside his bed. "I am a bad omen after all." I couldn't stop the flow of the burning hot liquid from my eyes. I kept muttering sorry but after a few, Adam's lips were on mine, moving slowly and sweetly.
"I guess that's the best way to shut you up." He said smiling after pulling back. "And this is the last time that I am going to tell you this, that IT WASN'T YOUR FAULT. IT NEVER WAS. Unless you want Sam to handle you in her own ways."
I just pressed my lips to his, kissing with all the life that I had inside me. I pulled back only to hug him tightly, never wanting to let go.
"Love, I know that you don't want me to let go but its hurting in my cracked bones." I instantly pulled back as soon as he said that. He just laughed. The days following that, consisted of trips to hospital to visit him, helping him in walking and talking to each other. I began feeling the old me again and this time, it came out naturally without trying too much.
From that day onwards, we have been together, helping each other to deal with our pasts and insecurities. I remember Sam and Patricia cursing me profanities. Together they are a deadly combo.!!!! But then, we all were crying and wrapped in a big hug.
Everyone together, put my missing pieces back together and I will always be grateful to all of them.
On my graduation day, I remember being so happy that I practically ran into Adam's arms as soon as I saw him. We hadn't been able to meet each other for a month. We didn't go to same universities but they were three hours drive away from each other. We would normally spent our weekends together before going back into our weekdays schedule. But last month had been awfully busy that we didn't get time to meet each other. Seeing him after a month made me feel on moon.
"God! I missed you so much." He murmured, kissing my hairs before he started kissing me with all his want. I felt something cold move into my fingers. I pulled back to see what it was but Adam was already on his knees.
"Will you marry me?" He gave me a boyish smile, always as charming enough.
"You know, you have to ask this before slipping the ring." I smirk.
"Always the one to ruin the moment. Would you answer, my knees are hurting?" He groaned.
I kneeled down at his level and kissed him, my hands running through his hairs. We pulled apart, after hearing the catcalls and realising we have audiences.
"How is that for an answer.!" I smiled and winked at him.
"Just perfect! Same as you.!"
I was pulled out of my memories, when the car came to the halt. We got out and came out, knocking on the door.
"You guys are finally back." Jeremy said, opening the door. "Sam was giving me more headache than a six year old boy and a three year old girl. God!" He chuckled.
"I heard that darling!" Came out Sam's voice. We went to where she was to see her munching on a sandwich.
"This is the fourth sandwich, she asked me to make her."
"The baby is craving for it." She protested before taking a bite. She is six months pregnant and happily married Jeremy. Who thought a drunken Sam could make such a perfect choice? It is been four years since they have married and already have a three year old baby girl named Karen.
"Mommy! Daddy! You both are finally home." Came running my six year old ball of sunshine. Adam took him in his arms, before sitting next to me.
"You didn't gave trouble to uncle and aunty? Did you Nathan.?" I asked, pinching his cheek.
"No, not at all. I was playing with Karen. She fell asleep, uncle Jer." He turned to look at him. "Girls are so fussy. One time wants to play something else and then she wants to play something other. Girls are so confusing." We all looked at Nathan and began to laugh together, to which he pout. He doesn't like when people laugh at him.
"I am going." He got out of Adam's hand and ran upstairs.
"He is going to be charming yoing man when he grows up." Said Sam. Sure he will. He has got his father's green eyes and my brown hairs.
After, having dinner with Sam and Jeremy, they left. We tucked sleepy Nathan in bed and went to our bed. How did I ever get lucky in love department, is still beyond me but still I crave for more and more for the upcoming years.
I kept my head on Adam's chest listening to his slow heartbeat. His hands wrap themselves around my torso.
"Have you ever thought why god made us meet? I mean, in this whole world, I could have met anyone who wouldn't have looked like Nathan. I mean seeing someone look like your dead lover was kind of hard."
"Maybe he already had better plans in mind." He said, his lips trailing kissing on my neck.
"So you say, you were my already decided fate." I raise my eyebrow, smiling as he trails his kisses down my body.
"I like to put it in different words though." He murmured against my skin.
"Which are?" I ask him, wanting to know.
"You are my Serendipity."
