Today is 7th February 2020, and the time is 5 o'clock in the evening in Canada.
“Mom, where are my sandals? I told you not to touch them, I have to wear them for tonight’s prom party at college” shouted my daughter Carey from her room upstairs.
She is getting ready for her prom night at college. She is now a teenage girl. She is smart, beautiful and of course with an attitude of her father Steve. I am in the kitchen preparing snacks for my husband and my son Rick. He is younger than Carey, my daughter, my first child. She is a little spoiled child, because of the pampering by her father in everything. She gets whatever she wants right at that moment.
Steve is now running his own company in Canada. He has worked hard to achieve this in his life. He has made sure that his family gets whatever they need and want without thinking twice. Carey, being our first child has got a maximum of her father’s traits but she spends money without thinking much.
“Mom, I will be late tonight so don’t wait for me at the dinner and tell dad to call me when he is back from the meeting. Bye Mom, Bye Rick!" Carey walked out of the door with her best friends and her boyfriend Troy.
Rick and I were alone at home so we planned to watch a movie together. My son likes to watch action and science fiction movies, like his father. I made some snacks for him; he likes to have fries and juice while watching movies at home.
It was 10 o’clock in the night when neither Carey nor Steve had returned from their respective party and meeting. I called Steve and he informed me that he is running a little late but he will be home before 11 PM. I told him to pick Carey from the college as her party would be ending soon.
Steve and Carey came back home by midnight. Steve went to change his clothes and till then I was setting up the dinner table for him to have something for dinner. I saw Carey running upstairs to her room with tears in her eyes. At that time, I didn’t say anything to her but I waited for Steve to have his dinner first and once he goes to sleep, I will talk to Carey.
When Steve was done with the dinner and went to sleep in his room, I went upstairs to Carey’s room and knocked on the door softly. “Who’s there? Just go away, I don’t want to talk to anyone right now. Leave me alone!” shouted Carey from inside. I immediately understood that something was wrong. I opened the door of her room and went inside.
She was sitting on one side of her bed hugging pillow tightly and with her face completely hidden in the pillow. I could hear her sobbing. I went to her and sat beside her, “Hey honey! What happened? You were so excited about tonight’s party, then what went wrong?” I showed my concern by caressing her cheeks with my hands.
She looked up and angrily said, “You won’t understand mom! You will never know how it feels when a guy or your boyfriend dumps you for another stupid girl. You got married to dad, who loves you so much. You both found your love, best friends and soul mates in each other. You can never feel the pain I am going through right now, so just go from here and leave me alone”.
I knew she was just hurt and couldn’t handle her feelings, and that is the reason why she was reacting like this. I got up from bed and went to my room. Steve was sleeping, I went to my cupboard and opened it. I had my diary hidden in a locker of my cupboard. I opened that locker and took out my diary.
It’s been 18 years since this diary has been here and my kids didn’t know about my past life. They just know that their dad and I were in love with each other and finally, with our parents' consent, we got married and since then living our married life happily.
I held back my tears because of what all I went through, only Steve and I knew and not even our parents. Steve and I had a bad past, an upsetting and deprived of true friendship and true love till we met each other. Still so many obstacles to break us apart, but somehow, we both managed to come out of those hurdles and stayed loyal to each other and to our feelings for each other. As I opened that diary so many memories from my past life came as flash backs. I could see everything through my imagination when I started to read it page by page.
Past life of Natalie mentioned in her DiaryNatalie’s POV
My name is Natalie. I am an average looking tall girl with medium length brown hair. I have deep black eyes with thin built. I am more of a tomboyish looking girl than a delicate girl. But I am a very emotional and soft-hearted person. I stay with my family. My mom and dad are working and my brother stays away because of his higher studies. I like traveling a lot with my family and close friends. I am a music lover-soft and romantic music. Since my schooling, I was never a friend of any boy because I was more into my only two childhood best friends. After my schooling, I started my graduation and my two best friends also chose their career paths differently.
Chapter 1
I was in my sophomore year of university. I was a shy person who doesn’t interact with boys like all other college going girls and boys. I preferred to be only with my three girls named tall and thin Charlotte, tall and chubby Sherin and tall and tomb-boyish Shiney during my college years. I used to have fun with my girls, watch movies, go on lunch dates with them every week, play games with them. I used to bunk classes with them to watch new movies, roam around in malls. I used to laugh a lot with them, arranging surprises for each other on our birthdays, chit-chatting with each other during our free times, and after college hours.
During my sophomore year, I had a crush on my senior named Sasha. He was tall, had brown eyes with golden messy hair. My friends used to push me to say to him that I liked him and he looked to me like a television actor. I was so afraid to approach him and to tell him that I liked him as my crush, that even when he was in his last year of graduation and during the fest, I couldn’t give him an gift which I made myself.
During the same year, we had three lateral entries in our batch. I met these people during our lab and library classes only. The girl named Ashley, she was a short, fair, rich but clever looking girl and guys named Andrew and Reece from another batch of the same year.
Andrew was good-looking with his dark black eyes and hair and strong muscles. He was of my height and I found his physique very nice but was afraid to approach him as a friend. Ashley was friendly and I introduced her to my girls' gang. We all were in the same Lab classes including those two guys, Andrew and Reece, and we started to interact a little bit more. With each day passing by, we all started to study together and enjoy our college fests.
As we moved to our last year of college, Reece who was tall, dark, and thin muscled, developed feelings for me which were more than friendly. I couldn’t accept his feelings because I was never into him more than as a friend. He made efforts into spending alone time with me, but I couldn’t get comfortable around him as I used to when we were friends only. We parted our ways on mutual consent as friends only.
Chapter 2Meanwhile, I was approached by Andrew after our College fest and he confessed his feelings of attraction towards me. We started to meet each other without letting anyone know about us inside and outside the college campus. We used to take a ride on his bike to nearby malls and cafes. I liked spending time with him because he was the first boy for whom I had felt something. We used to come early in our classes to spend more time together studying.
I remembered; our group had a bet in one lecture class. Andrew lost that bet with me and was asked to bring chocolates for our whole group after the lecture. When the lecture was over, we started to move into our next class, when he called me on my cell phone and asked to come outside the college. We all gathered outside and he gave us all chocolates. When everyone left for their classes, he held my hands and took me to an empty classroom as he wanted to give me something. I was blushing with his touch on my skin. I felt like so many butterflies are playing inside my stomach. He took out a big chocolate brick for me. He kept a piece of chocolate half in his mouth and asked me for a bite with him like that only, without using my hands. I was embarrassed by this, but as there was no one around, I went closer to him and took a bite from him and suddenly our lips touched each other. This was my first ever kiss and I can’t forget it for the whole of my life.
After a few weeks, it was time for our exams, we all started preparing for them. Andrew was nervous about maths subject and I was good at that. He asked me if I could be his tutor for some days so that he can do well in his exams. I agreed to that and we both decided that he can come to my place for tuition classes.
My parents were very nervous, as I had never had any guy at my home and suddenly there was a guy in front of them for tuition classes. We were
