"I do not have enough time! Meet me at the bridge on Saturday night. I will take you away from here!" Evan was so stunned to hear the voice that she trembled unconsciously! Her eyes did not even blinked with the thought that the image would vanish once she would close her eyes!

"Father! Is it you?" her hand moved forward even before she could think and tried to snatch the cloth away from the face of the man but he held her hand before she could touch it and then turned towards the stall!

She instinctively followed the man, forgetting about the existence of leo when she felt a hand on her shoulders.

"Where are you going, Evangeline?"

"Leo!" Leo frowned when Evan held his shirt and pulled it with tears and shock in her eyes.

She was looking terrified aas if she had seen a ghost!

"What happened! Did anyone try to come closer or say anything!" Small accidents were common in the fair but the threat from before and her terrified face scared him too as he took her in his arms and scanned the whole area when the girl started to struggle to break free!

"Leo.. I think…" Evan stopped as she did not know what to say! The whole family knew that her father had died! If she would say that she had seen his eyes then who would believe her!

They all would think that it was an illusion. And if her father was pointing at the letter she had received, would it be appropriate to tell Leo about it!???

She suddenly felt torn and did not know how to continue…

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

"What do you think, Evan? Is everything okay?" he thoroughly regretted bringing her here! Why had he chosen such a crowded place in the first place!

There was no romantic moment as he had thought but the plot had suddenly changed to a thriller one and he hated it when he was in the light and his enemy was in the dark!

"Yeah.. I think I paid him double and forgot to ask for the change. Wait here, I will go and bring the rest of the money back!" three deep lines formed on his forehead as he narrowed his eyes on her face!

"Just that?" She looked like she had seen a ghost. Her eyes were widened and she was not even able to form a sentence for a few seconds! Why did he feel like she was lying to him!

But he discarded the idea just when it was in his mind! His Evangeline would never lie to him!

"Let the money go! The skewer has too much oil. Let's look at other places for better dishes!" He held her hands and dragged her away as she turned and started at the place where the man in the cloak had talked to her but she was not able to see anyone with that description anymore as if everything was just her illusion.

Her mind felt a bundle of nerves as she did not understand what was happening to her! Just when she was scared that something would happen to her happiness, the bad omens started to show one by one that she is not even able to wrap her mind around all of them.

"Leo, I am feeling tired! Shall we head back to the palace!"

​ "Let's not think about food. The fireworks are going to start soon, shall we find a place and sit?"

They both blinked as they spoke simultaneously not expecting the other would say just the opposite thing!

"Oh, sure! I should have known that you are tired!"

"Of course, I love fireworks!"

They both stared at each other for long and then chuckled!

"It is fine if you want to go! We can come back some other time!" He rubbed her palm with his thumb to assure her but she shook her head as her heart filled with guilt.

Just to run away from the problems, she forgot how much effort he had put in that night! And her father.. She was just imagining him because she was missing him!

That was all an illusion! Just an illusion!

"No! It would be okay if I lean on your chest and see the stars and fireworks. I am sure you will hold me well if I feel tired!"

Without another word, he took her in his arms and brought her closer to his chest and took a whiff of her fragrance to calm his agitated heart!

Though he trusted her unconditionally his instincts were telling him that the danger was looming over their head. Yet he could not let her go!

Even when she left him just for a second he felt an emptiness in his chest. He just could not let her go!

Closing his eyes, he took a few deep breaths and then stared at the girl who had taken his heart and made him so helpless!

"Even! If I ever lose you, I will die, I swear! Promise me no matter what the reason is, you will always hold my hand in the end!" the girl blinked as her heart clenched.

If it would have been a few hours earlier, she would not have hesitated at all. But now.. She stared at his hands and then at his face with complex thoughts in her heart she was not able to resolve!

She felt like an invisible thread was stopping her from promising him but when she stared at the dim eyes of the man who was looking at her as if she was his whole world, she felt like those soulful eyes were spellbinding him!

Could his love be a lie! No! She could believe in anything but not that it was a lie to use her!

"I promise. But then you have to promise too that you would never lie to me or break my heart!" this was the last chance she was giving to him, to her and to their relationship..

"Of course, you are my everything!" with that not the hands but the lips sealed their eternal promises!
