Cursed By Fate

Days turned into weeks and weeks into months Laura and Carl were still apart with no hope of coming back together.

Carl decided to come up with a plan and involved Carolina and James, his friend. He planned a meet up and they decided to meet at Carl’s place .

Later that evening James arrived with Carolina. Carl was shocked to see them together ” what’s with the two of you ?” Carl asked.

” I don’t get ?”Carolina asked .

” You are always both showing up everywhere together these days which has begin to make me wonder what is going on between the both of you ” Carl replied.

Carolina and Jame glared at each other and smiled ” just come off it dude and let’s go straight to the point of why we are here ” James shut Carl up with his words.

” Alright , if you say so, ” Carl said and went to sit on the couch .

” So what’s the plan?” Carolina asked.

“As you guys know, I am still in love with Laura and I can’t see myself doing anything without her …” Carl said.

” We know right . How do we get involved in this ?” Carolina asked .

” I want us to come up with a plan that will bring us back together ” Carl replied

” I don’t think there is anything we can do to help you Carl , we have tried our best talking to her but she is not ready to listen to us . ” James said.

” You know what Carl , we can’t help you. You’re the only one that can help yourself ” Carolina said.

” How do you want me to help myself when I have tried all I could ever think of but all is not bringing any positive results ” carl said tiredly .

” It’s the weekend Carl . Laura still loves you!! so just go meet her at home and make things out with her.” Carolina advised.

Carl thought about it and saw that the advice could be an opportunity for him to get back together with his love . He quickly grabbed James car key and ran outside to the garage to go to Laura’s place

Carl drove to Laura’s house, his heart racing with excitement and nervousness. He had been given a chance to make things right, and he was determined to seize it.

As he arrived at her house, he saw her sitting on the porch, looking beautiful and serene. He took a deep breath, got out of the car, and walked towards her.

“Laura,” he said, his voice soft and gentle. “We need to talk.”

Laura looked up at him, her eyes guarded but curious. “What is it, Carl?”

Carl sat down beside her, his eyes locked on hers. “I know I hurt you, Laura. I know I broke your trust. But I want you to know that I still love you, and I want to make things right.”

Laura sighed, her expression softening. “Carl, I appreciate your apology, but I need time to think. I need time to heal.”

Carl nodded, his heart heavy with regret. “I understand, Laura. I just wanted to tell you that I’m willing to do whatever it takes to regain your trust. I’ll wait for you, no matter how long it takes.”

” I don’t need you to wait for me Carl , just move on with your life like I have done with mine ” Laura said and walked away.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Carl decided not to give up and followed her right away. ” I’m so sorry Laura, I don’t mean to keep the secret from you for that long ”

” Your apologies are useless now Carl , just go away !!” Laura yelled at Carl .

” No, I’m not Laura. I still love you !!

” You hurt me Carl , I trusted you but you broke my trust in you and I hate you!” Laura burst into tears .

” And I love you Laura ” Carl said and hugged her from behind.

Laura couldn’t get herself away from Carl’s tight hug , all she could do was burst into tears.

Carl patted Laura using his hand to stroke her hair ” I’m so sorry baby, I didn’t mean to hurt you Laura” Carl said slowly.

Laura cried all she want and looked at him, her eyes searching. “Carl, I still care about you. But do you think I can do this ??”

” Yes you can Laura . We can make this work between us ”

Laura nodded her head and said ” I don’t want you to ever hide something from again”

Carl nodded, determination in his eyes. “I wont, Laura. I promise. I’ll do whatever it takes to prove myself to you.”

Laura nodded, a small smile on her face. “I hope so, Carl. I really do.”

Carl’s heart leapt with hope. This was a start, a chance to make things right. He would do whatever it took to regain Laura’s trust, to prove himself to her. He would wait for her, no matter how long it took.

They both sat down and talked about everything that has happened to them during the period they were not together .

As they sat down, Carl took Laura’s hand in his, and she didn’t pull away. They talked for hours, sharing their feelings, fears, and hopes. Carl told her about his regret, his sorrow, and his determination to make things right. Laura shared her pain, her anger, and her struggle to move on.

As it began to get dark , they both felt a sense of relief, a sense of closure. They realized that they still loved each other, that they still had a connection that was worth fighting for.

“So why did you hate werewolves that much ?” Carl asked Laura the question he has been wanting to ask Laura .

Laura told Carl the story of her childhood, how her father was killed by a wolf even though she was not told that a wolf killed her father and all.

“I’m so sorry about that Laura but not all wolves are like that . Some are gentle just like me ” Carl defended himself .

They both spent the whole night in each others company, having some lovely moment together .
