9:00 pm...
Three cars were now moving towards the dark west woods, at a rapid speed. They all were coming from different directions of the city and had met at a junction, which was usually secluded and dark.
They sped on the long lonely road, one after another, feeling the sadness and helplessness in their hearts.
Soon they halted one after the other, and turned off their ignitions, at the corner of a road. They got off from their cars and walked towards each other.
"How are they both?" Xio Lee looked at Elizabeth and Lillian, while they all walked inside the woods.
"Ohh! Don't ask!! Rose has been crying all day. She has not eaten anything at all. At times she says she hates Rhehan, then she says she loves Rhehan! The other moment she starts trusting him, that he can not do anything! Maybe Cheryl is at the wrong. Then the next second, she is kicking her punching bag, considering it to be Rhehan!!" Lillian sighed, feeling extremely helpless and defeated.
"Ohh!! Yeah!!! The boy is a typical crybaby like me!!! He is not doing anything but starring at a blank wall and crying. He does not even talk to anybody! Now I know how irritating I am , when I am sad!!! I really doubt if the boy has even cheated. But then he says Cheryl showed him the pictures and he was in her room. So I don't know!" Elizabeth spoke looking at the two, shrugging her shoulders.
"Cheryl!! This girl, she is doing a movie with Kareem right? Then what was she doing in Malaysia?" Xio Lee frowned looking at Elizabeth.
"I don't know! Maybe Kareem had sent her. He succeeded in his plan after-all. Rhehan told me how the girl had been trying to seduce him all naked in a pool and he literally had to literally throw her away." Elizabeth retorted in anger.
"Hmmm! I don't know! It is also a part of her nature. That day in hospital she was even trying to make a pass at me. Then she instantly fled, when I shouted back at her!" Xio Lee nodded in disapproval.
Elizabeth and Lillian looked at the man in surprise, thinking about various possibilities.
"I guess only old monk can solve this now! I am loosing my patience, thinking about it all day! Also, looking at the two sad kids, is making my heart bleed." Elizabeth pressed her forhead with her hands.
"Don't worry! We have always recieved guidance from the old monk, we will get it today as well!" Xio Lee patted their shoulders, while they speedily walked towards the monastery.
"Don't be scared Lilly!" Elizabeth smirked looking at Lillian, who was even now uncomfortable going to the woods, after so many years.
"Hah!!! Don't forget I am the original enchantress. I am not scared of anybody!!! AArghhhh!!!!" Lillian clenched Elizabeth's hands, as a gigantic snake approached them crawling towards them speedily.
"Ahh!!! How are you!!" Xio Lee bent down touching the body of the snake. The snake lifted its head and slithered near the man's ear.
"Ahhh!!! You are a good- good girl. I love you too. Come let's all go to old monk." Xio Lee held the gigantic snakes body, and warpped it around his neck.
Lillian who was earlier walking in centre, had now pushed Elizabeth in centre. She herself was now walking at a distance from Xio Lee, holding Lizie's hand.
After a fourty more minutes of constant walking and meeting various other animals, the three finally reached the monstery. They prefered to walk this time, because Elizabeth was tremendousely scared of riding on the back of a hyena or a lion.
"Ahhh!!! Home sweet home!!!" Xio breathed the fresh air of the place, feeling extremely elated.
They all entered the monastery, bowing down before the statue of the The Lord Buddha and towards other monks.
