Stolen Love
Boredom grew over me as I watched my mother work harvesting the vegetable, letting out a sigh, giving her the hint that I was bored. She turned to look at me with her uplifting, cheerful smile as I laid on the grass, “Proserpina come over here” springing up I trotted over to where my mother was, she fixed my Light pink sun dress, giving me the compliments on how pretty I was and gave me permission to play in the park nearby the house, only the park, thanking her with a hug I left, skipping down the suborn neighbor's paved sidewalk to the park, Seeing my friends swinging on the swings I ran to join them. However, they were not as equally happy to see me. I tried to join in and play with them, but they just turned to me with and started barking, cruel, and harsh remarks about me and my family, embarrassed and upset I ran, so they would not be able see my tears I ran into the tall grass fields where I stumbled across a stunning, gorgeous patch of flowers, knowing I was not allowed to be here away from the park, I hesitated for a second debating if it was smart to spend some time picking some flowers. I scanned the field I did not see anyone, walking closer to the flowers, picking a few for mother when I turned around to see a man behind me, I was too far from anyone to hear me scream and he was too close making it so I could not run. The man did not want to hurt me he kneeled down and picked some flowers, “these flowers are extraordinarily beautiful, don’t you agree young girl?” Yes, I have never seen flowers quite like this. We kneeled down for some time picking the flowers. He looked up at me are eyes locked there was something I couldn’t not understand I did not fear this man, his voice was smooth and deep with a calming effect as we spoke, “Little girl do you have a name”? My name is Proserpina, but you can call me Rose. He stood up and grabbed my hand helping me up, “Rose such a beautiful flower, just like you” feeling flattered by the nice man I thanked him we walked back to his extravagant black mustang cobra with golden rims on the tires, shaking my hand, he spoke, “Rose it was a pleasure to meet such a sweet young lady my name it Pluto, I hope we can meet again” I agreed with him, I enjoyed our time together and wanted to see him again. Putting the flowers in the trunk of his car, we started to say our goodbyes, he offered me a ride home, I did not see a threat with the man, I agreed to the kind gesture. We set off I told Pluto how to get to my house, but he went the opposite way. I began to get Concern asking where we were going, the sweet man I meet in the fields was starting to scare me. He Assures me that I was safe he wasn’t going to hurt me, Terror started to overpower my petite physique making me shake. With a quiver in my voice I asked again asserting force and power in my weak voice. Where are we going and why! Pluto responded “You are going to come live with me at my mansion and help out” my mind raced with confusion, unable to processes anything I was unclear why he wanted me, was he lying? Is he going to do something else to me? We sat in quite utterly silent the rest of the ride, the hours went by Intel he broke the silence “We are here this is home”. Two golden gates open reviling the enormous mansion, getting out of the car we were greeted by two mammoth like dogs, when the dogs came trotting over to me, I made a whimper in fear they were going to hurt me, Pluto guaranteed that the dogs will not hurt me unless I try to leave. Knowing that I was now a prisoner to Pluto frightened me, knowing I may never see my mother or life outside his house created a rage of wrath inside me. Trying to hide it as we walked up the stairs in his house, opening the door, he gave me a map of the house. The mansion had everything a person could desire I was astonished, however, I could never be satisfied with all he offered, I will always long for my freedom and my mother, “Oh, I missed her vastly, I missed the smell of her golden hair, and I missed the smell that lingered on her clothes”. Pluto led me to my suit, he told me dinner would be ready in 10 and left me be. My emotions all over the place, I had so my anger and fear and sorrowfulness but then I was also excited and amazed with this house and all it offered. I cleaned myself up and went downstairs where there was a feast, my efforts to fast, staking I was unhappy failed.
Two year when by I never have been so happy but for the 2nd month I became vulgar and foul-mouthed, the ragedful fire that grew became to overpower me I was in a war with myself I began to fall deeply in love with Pluto, I saw this side of him that I never saw before he was kind and passionate, he was always enthusiastic no matter what we did he made all my pain and troubles vanish, we would have picnics under the large oak trees by the stables and have such great convocation about are life, he told me about his past, he lost his family in a fire and was disowned by everyone he was accused of unspeakable actions that ruined his life, he resorted back to his house unable to leave without being shunned he spent his time building into his own kingdom. I felt so much compassionate and sympathetic for Pluto, he was such a kindhearted gentleman. I no longer not miss my old life I enjoyed it here and that made me furious, I started to act vulgar trying to stop the deep affection I towards him, I could tell the Pluto was unpleased with me he allowed me to act disrespectful Intel now. I was waken by being drenched in icy cold water, angry I started striking at Pluto where he grabbed my hands and dragged me out of the house throwing me onto the wintriness freezing snow. He started to shout at me “I tried to nice to you, you have everything you want you are not expected to do anything and this is how you repay me?!” I could tell that Pluto as about in tears I stood up dusting off the snow and began to stand my ground. “I never asked to be taken from MY home from MY life and become a prisoner by you! I am only 14 years old and I’m stuck living alone with one person a 27 year old guy. I don’t care what you give me I will never be happy because I long for something much for that money can never buy. I long for freedom and love witch I cannot have living here” Before Pluto could speak I Continued to rant. “ I hate you for what you make me feel, I hate how I no longer desire my old life, I no longer want to be free because…”cutting me off Pulling me slowly toward him. He learned in placing a kiss on my cold icy lips, the kiss was hard yet soft, it was Fiery yet passionate, it was filled with our hunger for each other but it was also filled with love. Looking up at Pluto knowing that are love for each other was prohibit we did not. In silent, we went inside the toasty warm home and snuggles on the couch until I fell asleep. The next day I woke with Pluto calling for me in the front lawn, he was standing with his prized mustang named Pharaoh, I was unsure why he began to speak “would you mind going into town it and get some food and anything that you need? I looked at him speculating why, he gave a chuckle spoke “you are no long a prison you can come and go as you want, or if you want I can bring you home.” My eyes filled with joy hugging Pluto I got on Pharaoh, gave Pluto a kiss and galloped off, to the market, once I got there I tied Pharaoh the post with the other horses, I started to look around where I stumbled on as older widow, selling vegetables, once I passed her she ran up to me giving me a hug falling her knees crying out to God thanking. At first I was confused not sure who this lady was but after she took off her hat I then realized it was my mother last time I saw her I was 12yr now I am almost 15yr. I missed her dearly but, my love was now for Pluto. I wanted to stay but I knew if I did she would take me home, out of fear and panic I ran cause cayuse crashing Intel people knocking things over trying to lose her. I ran to Pharaoh but in a panic I cut is rains jumping on his back and taking of back to my home with Pluto. Once I got home I raced into his sweet with panic in my voice I told him how my mother saw me. He grabbed me holding me in his arms, petting my long dark brown straight hair, assuring me that he would protect me that he would not let anyone separate us because are love was to strong kissing me sealing the deal. I know will not leave Intel I was 18yr I would not risk losing my love. As I was cleaning the house the Gard dogs started to bark, I ran out front where I saw the police, holding Pharaoh Rains, I then knew I messed out, when I cut the rains I left this tag where they traces it back to me. My heart stop, as I watched the police barge in investigating the house looking for Pluto, I was allowed to get my stuff where I left a note explaining to Pluto what happen and I will return tomorrow night. The pain I felt being ripped from my home to this small shack in the suburbs upset me. The food was disgusting, the bed where hard and the house was too small with too many people. I did not care that these people where my family, I acted as if I was okay with all of this. Going to bed I waited intel everyone was asleep, sneaking down the old wooden stairs, once I got out side I push the old station wagon down the drive way, I did not want to wake anyone, once it was out of the drive I got into it and started to drive. I knew that I was going against the law being only 14 and driving but my love for Pluto had no boundaries. getting to our house going upstairs where he was waiting knowing that this might be are last time together we spent in in silent laying with in the bed resting my head on his chest hearing his heart beat I started to cry. I know that we could not run away and that once the polices come Pluto would be senates to death. We spent the rest of the night in tangled the Egyptian cotton sheets as are souls became one. We awoke to the sound of the dogs, barking and the sound of sirens. Knowing the police men where here, the dogs cannot stop the armed police men, we herd four gun shot, ending the sound of the barking dogs. Pluto got out of bed and walked down the stairs with out saying a word to me. I raced to the window watching what he was doing. I watched as he held a gun behind his back as the police offences surrounding him. Waring to drop the gun he lifted up is empty hand making a finger gun, with a large grin on his face he pulled the fake trigger, However the Police pull the real trigger. I watched as is corpus fell lifeless onto the ground. Knowing that my true love was dead I watched his blood fill the pavement I screamed unable to control my emotions I grabbed his switch blade from the night stand and ran down the spiral stair case. Exiting out the french doors I held the blade to my throat I started screaming over the police officers, I stood in the pool of blood. I have already died there was nothing more to live for. I yelled to the Police offerces “you cannot tell me who I can and cannot love, you killed my True love now I shall die”! I saw my mother in the back behind gate. I did not care I pulled the blade across my throat feeling the blood start to poor from my neck Falling in the pool of blood, as my eyes locked with Pultos for the last time I took my last breath and said good bye to this world relzing how I was onces pure before my love was stolen by the man I died next to. I died with next to my lover and with no regret.
