What is your reason behind your sudden change in your behaviour?Weber: I...I turned I heard pearl voice. I stood there in shock to scene I witnessed. I saw her standing at bar. She put her hands on the air. She is balancing and walking in bar. She smiled towards me . She threw flash in her hand towards me.I caught it. Omg...this girl drank the flash with drinks I poured  .  I had vodka....which is strong drink in it. I m doomed. This teenage girl drank vodka....think it is water. She gulped the wholesome drink. She must have strong alcohol resistant.  She must be crazy drinker....look at her,she is hanging in bridge.Pearl ( in loud voice): hey ,boy. Give me that water again.Piers: hey...I heard girl's voice.  Now I understand the reason behind the morning 4: 00 am. I don't believe it....you are dating a girl. I m disturbing you on your time. Okay bye.Oh ..God..mu brother jumped to another conclusion.  This girl become drunk. Another side my brother thinking so much. I cut the phone.  I walked towards pearl.Pearl: give me more water.

I m suprised.Wait...what is your age.Pearl : me....whatever...it is. Give to meI m ....wait....She showed  2 fingers and 5 fingers on other hand. She told " I m 15 I think ".Weber: what...you are underage to drink.U totally become drunk. Don't know what are you doing ,pearl. You drank a whole bottle. Today afternoon I think you gonna suffer in hangover.  I went near her. I stood there even. If I took another step, I don't what she will do. I don't want her to do most craziest thing to jump from bridge.  I want her to place her legs  in ground from bar. She put herself in danger Even the breeze hit her. She will lose her hand.Weber: give me your hand. Look at you walking on bar. It is so dangerous. Pearl shakes her head and tol" I will come down if you give bottle of that water .GIVE ME ".I looked at her helplessly.  I don't know what to do with her Weber: you come down I will give you. You are putting yourself in dangerous. You are so crazy,pearl .Pearl put hands around her arms and looked at Me. My eyes widened seeing her . I extend my hand and gestured to take it.Pearl: I willn't believe you. I come with you if you show me the bottle with drink again.I sighed . I took another bottle of normal water.Weber: here ,I have it. Come down now.She chuckled.  My heart pounded faster. Pearl: I knew it is water bottle. I want bottle with that drink.Weber : how are so intelligent in this state ? I cannot believe it is your first time to drink. When I drank for first time , I ended up vomiting on someone. You are so steady.You are driving me crazy.Pearl: ooh, standing on bar is crazy thing. Then I will do one more crazy thing. As .....u don't gave me drink. I jump from hereMy eyes widened as she told . I put my hand on my forehead.  She done what I thought she shouldn't do. She is going to  from bridge . It is my mistake to establish a talk with drunk.I should put my arms around her and pulled her to ground.I went near her. She put her leg on leg and her arms on air like she gonna fly. She stood there in one leg.Pearl: I will jump from here.Whenever I become scared or angry ,I will start to speak in French. I don't know why Weber : ne me quitte pas, pearl.              ( don't leave me ,pearl)Suddenly mind pulled to memories I suffered a lot due to it for past 6 months. 6 months ago,My marriage stopped as bride ran away . I saw hellen on few days later. I saw her with big goofy smile.  She was the source of happiness that time. I knew she is not mine.  I knew she become someone's else. I don't why I am smiling here .She stood there in shooting hall. I cannot take my eyes. The words " ne me quitte pas" in tip of my tongue. Hellen smiled towards someone at sideways.  She ran and hug her husband.  I stood there in front of her. She don't notice me . Hellen: oh ,hubby. You brought my favourite food , cheese rings. You are the best.She kissed her husband. Ooh...God. she never thought of me in her life. Both of them look happy.  My heart asked me " how can you miss someone so much but you cannot have her?".I turned away and walked towards door. My eyes filled with tears.  I put my hands together. I heard most familiar and favourite voice of mine. The voice which have power to stop me and enchant me.Hellen : ne me quitte pas ,Weber.I knew you are Weber. Don't walk away. I want to talk with you.I looked her with damp eyes and hellen gave her worried look. I saw glimpse of guilty in her eyes.While her husband put his arms around her as if claiming it is her. I started to regret why I came here.  Even after I undergone a lot.Hellen : I....I....am sorry for i done.i knew I done a lot. You got hurt because of me. I knew I broke your heart and made you to hate me. I am sorry again. I ran away from there. I don't want our lifes miserables because of my lie that I act like I like you.I want to move on and forget me. I don't Know about you . In my eyes , you are still my best friend.  If you want someone to talk ,I will be there.Her husband: you are so pathetic . I am so sorry for what u undergone. It will be nice if you forget her from your life.I smiled and wiped tear from my tears.Everyone don't understand me. In this world eyes  ,I look like villian who forced a girl to marry me. Now too, I heard whispers like how good hearted hellen, she is talking to Me and become wellwishers of my future.Nobody saw pain inside my heart. Her husband told those harsh words with big friendly smile.I looked her with pain. I looked at their interlocked hands. Still now, my heart expect the words from here.  If she ask me to don't leave me and be in her life. I will be there for her." I m not one near her. She is happy.Once she told  * my love for you never ends *It just words or lies to her...but for me those words are my matters to meHer smile matters to me."Weber: I understood now only .....You are  not mine ,never was. This fool always understand everything late.Even you broke my heart, still I wish you best in your life.Congrats for your wedding. Without waiting for her answer. I walked away. While she stood there and called me to tell something. Hellen :  ne me quitte pas ... ne me quitte pas .... ne me quitte pas .Her voice started to haunted me in dreams . Still now ,I affected by her nightmare. More often those words create something. Pearl's voice brought me from my memories. Pearl: you are not giving me.  I m gonna jump.In blink of eye, she jumped from bridge.  she flew in the air downwards.  I went to bar of bridge. She fell downwards with a innocent smile in her face I told "  ne me quitte pas ".Ooh ..God. she fell down. It look like that pearl don't know swimming.  In the way, she fell from here. I need to save her. She is really crazy.I jumped from bridge and I fell into water. I immersed inside.  I saw pearl  sunk inside the water. She tried her best to come up. As i thought, she don't know swimming. I took her in my arms and I swam to shore. I placed her in grassland.  I looked at her uncounsiouness one. I placed her on my lap.I put my hand on her cheek and shaked itMy heart leapt with sudden fear. Again my lips chanted " ne me quitte pas ".I started to rub my hands on her cold hand. There is no movement from her other than her breath .My mind dumped me with thousands of questions like what to do, should I call her relatives? How can I contact her? Should I call to hospital? I have lot of questions My heart: do first aid for her?I placed my face mere inches from her. I don't feel her breathing against my neck. I put my hand on my neck and I don't  know what to do. Did I kill someone? Nah...she must be swooned .it look like I need to do something. I checked her pulse. I don't feel anything.my crazy heart goes crazies. I creeped out in fear and worried about her.My childhood first aid came into my mind.One thing, you should press against her breast....nah...I wouldn't do it. It make feel advantage of innocent girl. I should place my lips against her to treat her. It look like second steps are less humiliating than first one.I Pinched  the nose of the pearl closed. Take a normal breath, cover the pearl's mouth with mine to create an airtight seal, and then give 2 one-second breaths as i watch for the chest to rise.I continued to treat her. I cupped her cheeks. I closed my eyes. Suddenly I felt two hands on my shoulder and pushed me away.I opened my eyes to saw pearl in anger mode.She looked at me with red eyes and she wiped her lips . She put her hands on cheeks. She looked at me in shock and suprise. I saw blush coated in her cheek like mine. I and she looked like tomato in red. I felt embarrassed as she woke up at unexpected time. I don't what she thinks. She may think me as prevert.She lookat at me . She shouted " MY FIRST KISS...HOW WOULD YOU DO THIS TO ME , MY FIRST KISS?....IT WAS MY FIRST KISS.MY FIRST KISS!!! I m going crazy. do you know from childhood I am anticipating for this?I always thought of first kiss is from my love of my life. I never expect it from a stranger. weber: I m sorry.  I done cpr to save you. don't worry, it doesn't count as kiss.pearl: I m always dreamed  of getting kiss under romantic cherry blossom and snow , by the side of silver river....it has to be like my name ,pearl.weber: how can that suitation happen? Do you know what you are saying?what the hell with silver river and cherry blossom?Look like she was in still drunk state. She don't get out of that state.Pearl stood up in anger . She pouted and turned her away.Again she shouted at top of the voice " I don't care.  I want to universe to welcome my first kiss. And now in reality,  I got my first kiss at lousy bridge.".Ooh God...this girl have read so much fairytales.  Think everything like a crazy dreamy girl. I never expect this side from mature girl like pearl. Only drunken time,she show this side I think.She still continues to accuse me as if I done big crime.Pearl:  YOU RECKLESSLY STOLE MY FIRST KISS AND THERE WAS NO FEELING. Where is all dizziness and sweetness?I sighed and stood up. I cannot bear her cringe side. She totally lived her life in dreamland thinking about her charming princess.  She is still 15 year old.I don't what to do. I m literally suprised for her alcohol resistant after this much happened. Still her words are clear. Still her her leg wiggled and but she stood straight. She jumped in air in rage and looked at me.She pouted and told me " hey ,you ..how are you going to compensate for you done to me ?"I put my hands on her shoulder .I looked at her eyes. Weber: I will be responsible for you. Pearl: what do you mean?  You stold my first kiss.  You are talking like flirty one in comics.pouring your chessy words to me.I looked at her eyes. I don't why. I feel like I attracted to her. I felt like I shouldn't lose this crazy girl from my life. For this night, she made forget reality and made Me happy.I want this girl in rest of my life.When I see her, I feel like I am being best of Me.Webet: i promise you I will be responsible for you. You are going to be in my hand.  You are talking about that kiss. Isn't first kiss? I will return to you.I kissed her again. I don't know why. I felt like I want to taste her lips again and again. I craved for it. Even while speaking I don't see her eyes. My eyes went to her lips. I cannot control myself. I don't get enough of her and her heart shaped lips.When I took back. I saw her in closed eyes as if she cherishes it like me.I smiled. She opened her eyes and pouted.Pearl: don't smile like that.Weber: you are so adorable I cannot stop smiling. Pearl put her hand on forehead .she put her another hand on my sleeves and she looked at me.Pearl : I feel dizzy. Don't forget your promise....She swooned in my arms. Finally this girl lost her sense and her drunken mood went off.Next day ,I called hospital van.they took you. I find your  sister  worried on corridor. I went to see you. I overheard the conversation between you and her.Arlene : sister ,you finally woke up. Do you know how much I afraid when you found unconscious on bridge?Pearl: what are you talking about?...did I find in uncounsiouness there. I m sorry for make you worried. Arlene: do you remember happened in yesterday night?Pearl put her hand on forehead and tried her best to think. She looked at her sister helplessly. Pearl: I don't remember anything.  I remember only running in tears on bridge. Next thing , I don't remember much.Arlene:maybe you forget it...as you intake alcohol for first time. I don't understand why you did it.Pearl: what? I drank it....I don't remember anything.  Who gave me alcohol while I am underage? It look like i went in hands of bad boy.Arlene: no...i don't think so. You came here without any scars or injuries.  You just fainted. Maybe you intook it unknowingly. Pearl: who find me?Atlene: a passerby find you alone in bridge.They called hospital and asked ambulance to come here. Then he ran away from that place as soon as van came. He didn't enter inside.  He escaped.  That young boy must be kind hearted to save you.Pearl: I should thank that boy .without him, I don't what will be my suitation now....I have strange dream like I meet a handsome man....I don't remember his faceI walked away from her room. I put boutique on hospital desk. I told myself " it look like she totally forget Ms as I thought.  She must not rem6me even I went front of her. I will be loser. It is also good ,she don't remember me. I don't want her to see me. I just be her dream ."I took the ring which I stole from her . I took the ring from pearl's hand. I knew it is important one for her. I took it when she I brought her to shore as laid there in faint condition . I took ring from her to keep this beautiful incident and beautiful creature who created it for Me.
