SACRIFICE FOR LOVE
***Episode 10&11***
Eric continued holding her hand and never for once did he let it go.
The walk to his house took them fifteen minutes and he enjoyed every bit of it. When they got to his house Eric let out a sigh.
They entered his house. His house was huge!
Ella felt like she was peasant walking through a castle. He even had maids and butlers that attended to her.

Eric led her into his room there was lot of holes on the wall but it was nice and clean. She sat on his bed while he went into his bathroom to take a quick shower. . When he was done he sat close to her and held her hands.
Eric why are there holes in your wall she asked.
When I fight with my parents I take it out on the walls .
They talked for sometime. He carried her on his back and gave her a piggy back ride downstairs .
His dad was waiting for him in his study. Ella waited for him in the living room.

Eric went in , uninterested in what his Dad had to say
What is it Dad ?
Eric this is becoming tiring, every week you run away. Leaving me and your mum worrying about you. .
Eric smiled. “sure you’re worried. That why you’re out with those hoes and Mum’s out with those moron’s. It’s because I’m your only son. You’re just scared that when grand pa passes away he won’t put our family on the will.
His father got angry. “well, do you want it to end up on your uncle’s side? Eric gave his dad a look that showed he didn’t care. His dad continued talking.
Since I managed to have a son and my brother have no kids, I have the advantage. Son, listen to me. You are my heir. All my wealth will be passed down to you.

Eric looked at his dad disgusted. All you care about is money! You don’t care about me! He yelled as he stormed out of the door opened and grabbed Ella’s hand.
“come let’s go. He said to her. Ella was confused and didn’t know what happened
Eric held his hand and took her to the beach near his house. On the sand there were there two huge rocks . Eric led her over there. He lifted her up and they sat side by side.
They remained silent until Eric took a deep breath of the ocean air.

“I love this place, don’t you ? He said to her smiling .
She returned his smile and held onto his hand tighter.
Eric what’s wrong?”Eric avoided her eyes
“nothing. ”
she turned his chin to face him. “come on. You know you can tell me. ”
he nodded.
“it’s my dad and this stupid feud he has with my uncle. They’re fighting over who will get the larger part in my grandpa’s will. ”
“oh…. She said softly.
” isn’t it stupid ? ” he asked laughing. “my grandpa’s not even dead yet!”
she understood him. So she didn’t say anything because she know she doesn’t want him to worry about it. He threw a rock into the ocean and it skipped three times.
“perfect. He said.
“why is it perfect?” she asked.
Age is nothing but a number right? He asked her, changing the subject she thought about it for a while and nodded.
¤
since i’m older than you by two years that make me your protector i love you….
She felt her heart bubble with excitement but Eric continued talking… As my best friend.
Her bubble bursted. This was not what she expected him to say. She looked at him with wide eyes and asked why your best friend ?
Eric just looked at her and smile. Has she been reading the wrong signs? she thought .

So what do you say?” he asked. ” want to be my best friend. ? Even though it was breaking her heart. She had no choice but to agree. She nodded.
“yes, i want to be your best friend.
“good, he said.
Eric nodded and reached into his pocketand brought out a knife. She stared at him with wide eyes.
Eric what are you going to do with that knife?.
He asked do you trust me?
She nodded without hesitation. She trusted him with her whole heart. He smiled at her. He pulled the back of her shirt down he use the knife and carved a small “E” on her shoulder blade. She bled and he bandaged it for her.
then he gave her the knife to engrave the initial of her name “D” on his back which she did.
He held her close he smiled . He felt sad he wanted to say i love you ella as my girlfriend so she would be his forever but he couldn’t. But he wasn’t the type to admit his feelings .
But he knew engraving thier names on thier back was not just a symbol as a brotherly love. But his promised symbol as a soulmate to her forever....

TO BE CONTINUED TOMORROW
