The Past by rosebelikov (new reading .TXT) 📖

"I have to tell you something" zarek said in a grave voice. He had stayed up all night working up the courage to tell his wife some important news. "I’m sorry but I can’t talk right now. I have to go to the doctors and I’m already late as it is, we’ll talk when I come home though ok?” Rose said as she quickly picked up her coat and purse then gave Zarek a quick kiss on the lips before she left. Sighing, Zarek sat down on a nearby chair. This was the only time he had to tell her but it just wasn’t meant to be. Not looking forward to what he has to, Zarek slowly lifted himself up and went to collect his belongings from the bedroom he shared with rose.

Today was the happiest day for rose. After meeting with her doctor, her suspicions were confirmed. She is pregnant. After countless attempts of trying, she finally got the one thing she most desired in the world, a baby. Now all she needed was to go home and tell Zarek so that they can both rejoice but first rose decided to first stop at the local store to buy some ingredients to make Zarek’ favorite food. When rose finally left the store it was already night and raining but she figured Zarek would forgive her for staying late out once he heard her news. With that thought in mind, Rose quickly ran home, careful to avoid big puddles. Once home, rose burst through the door exclaiming, “Zarek you’ll never guess what the Doctor sai-“ but her words soon died off because inside their home, Zarek was not waiting in the dining room where he usually was. Worried, rose dropped the ingredients she was carrying and ran to her bedroom only to find it empty. Frantic now, rose ran around the entire house looking for Zarek only to find nothing. “Where are you?” rose whispered to herself as she collapsed in her bedroom, fear engulfing he and tears beginning to form in her eyes. NO! I can’t give up now! Rose, thought as she wiped the tears from her eyes. Getting up, Rose went to check the window in the living room and as she was peering out she spotted a figure under the lantern across from her house. Hope filled her as she ran outside her house and into the rain towards the dark figure. “Zarek What are you doing out here?” Rose said glad that he looked safe” Rose said but once she reached the man he turned around and she realized that this was not zarek but his best friend Thomas. “I’m sorry rose, but I’m not Zarek.

Dedication:
I waited but you never came I stood there in the rain waiting for you in the cold night My tears streaming down my face you could not see them because of the rain My body was soaked but you were still not here I waited and waited all through the night But you never came My heart broke that night when you never came
