Dark Light

In the town of Luckenberg there lived a family one of the richest one . There was seven members in the family , Johnsons were well known for their wealth . But untill one day their daughter meets a stranger in her class . What is that persons intention ? . One morning , Sophia was on her way to college campus in her car . On her way the car was suddenly stopped . '' Why did you stop all of a sudden ?'' asked Sophia . '' There is someone on the road '' the driver said pointing at the road . ''What's all the crowd gathering for ?'' asked She . ''Oh that boy is helping the injured man '' Sophia said ''let's wait for a while then '' . After some few minutes the man was sent to the hospital for treatment . The crowd that was gathering cleared up . '' We can't see people like that now a days can we ?' said the driver . '' Yeah but anyway i am late for college drive fast '' said Sophia . The driver was driving faster than before . After some minutes she reached college . When she got off again she bumped into someone . '' I am sorry '' the person said . ''No it's okay '' Sophia replied . When she looked at the face of the person she bumped she realized that it is that boy she saw on the street a while ago . ''Are you that person whom i saw in the streets helping the injured man ?'' asked she looking at him . '' Well umm yeah did you see me there ?'' asked that boy . '' Yeah it was a good deed no one does that for a complete stranger they see in the roads now a days '' she said complimenting him . '' I feel pleasure helping people '' the boy replied with a smiling face . '' I think i have seen you somewhere before but can't remember where '' Sophia stated looking at him '' What is your name ?'' . '' My name is Edward William '' the boy replied confidently looking at her with passionate gaze . '' I guess i don't know you sorry my name is ....'' when she was about to say something . ' ' I know it's Sophia Johnson , you belong to one of the most richest families in here there is'nt anyone here who has'nt heard of you or your family '' the boy remarked . '' Guess everyone knows us '' replied Sophia looking at him with hawk like gaze . ' ' Are'nt you late for lectures ?'' asked the boy looking at his watch . '' Oh god i forgot about it we can chat later '' saying this she hurried off to class . Edward also got going following her behind . When Sophia arrived at the class the professor had arrived already . ''She will scold me again i am late for three times this month '' Sophia thought to herself . But she made up her mind to enter no matter what happens . So, she enters without thinking . '' Miss Johnson you are late for three times this month what will you do about it ?'' the professor ms.Iris asked her . ''I am really sorry i am late because of the traffic '' she apologized . '' I really am fed up with all of your excuses you understand ? just because you are rich the college rules does'nt apply for you don't think like that , now get out '' she yelled . ''But ms.'' Sophia was about to say something . Just then a voice came from behind her . '' I can explain miss '' said the voice entering the class . '' Is that you Edward ?'' Sophia said surprisingly . '' Yes i am '' Edward replied . ''and who are you again ?'' asked the professor . '' I am Edward Johnson i belong to this class , miss sophia was late because of me ''' he said . '' And why is that ?'' asked the prof. .'' Cause an accident happened today and she was late because of the crowd gathering there i can confirm that '' he stated . ''If you say so .. ... okay you can come in Sophia '' the professor permitted . '' Edwardthis is the first time i saw you why is that ?'' asked ms.Iris . '' Maam i am always at home because of my illness i have amemia , today i felt like coming thats why i came '' Edward replied . '' I see that's why your records are all blank it's okay come sit down beside Sophia the class will start '' she declared . THe class started . Sophia was looking at Edward . Sophia's P.O.V ''i wonder why he saved me ? only because i am rich ? or does he has other intentions ? no matter what he does i won't fall for his tricks '' . '' I won't be late again so he does'nt have to cover for my mistake ''' . ''But what's the look in his eyes it's as if it can devour me completely '' '' What does he want from me ? money ? my attention ? or something else ?'' '' But i feel as if i had seen him somewhere before where i can't remember i think when i was little , then i should ask my dad he might know something yes i will ask him '' . When she was thinking about all of these Edward was looking at her from the corner of his eye mesmerized by her beauty . All the class talked about Sophia behind her back cause they were jealous of her wealth . She was bullied actually , but she did'nt say anything about it to her family . She has always been like that . BUt Edward had noticed all of this and he got angry from all of these . When the class was over it was lunch break , Edward came up to talk to her . '' Miss sophia lets have lunch shall we ?'' he asked coming in front of her . '' Well i am kinda hungry ... ohkay let's get go to the cafetaria then it will be my treat then cause you saved me there back then '' Sophia said . ''Let's get going '' he said . They both went to the cafeteria and ate . After their lunch was over they went to the garden while walking talking about all kinds of things , about their lives their problems and about how she was bullied in her class . After talking for a while , Edward blurted out '' Will you become my friend , and i will be yours ?'' . After a minute of pause she responded after wondering about what to do '' Yes i will be glad to cause you are the only one who talks with me in my class '' . ''Let's exchange contacts then '' he suggested . ''Yes i will be glad to '' she replied . They both exchanged contacts . After that they both went to class ,. When class was over they both waved their goodbyes and Sophia got into the car and left . Edward went on his own way . When she reached home she saw her dad and brother bickering . Without thinking she asked '' why are you quarreling ?'' . But they did'nt listen to her and continued quarreling . ''Why can't you hand over your business and wealth to me aren't i your son ? do you think i am not responsible enough or something ?'' her brother asked . '' NO but i can't leave everything upto you '' her dad replied . ''And why is that cause you have Sophia ? she and i both are'nt equals to you right ?'' he retorted . '' You both are equal but she also has the rights for everything i can't give you everything right ?'' her dad asked . ''You always do that why ?'' asked her brother . '' Don't be stubborn , enough is enough i won't listen to you you got that ?'' he rebuked his son . ''Fine then i will tell mom about it remember it '' saying this her brother left . '' What will i do with him ?'' he was agonizing over the matter . ''Oh Sophia my daughter when did you came home ? i am sorry you had to see all that '' he apologized . '' I came back from college quite awhile ago , why were you quarreling ?'' asked she . '' Oh it's nothing it's just your brother's usual tantrums he's planning on starting his business which has no gain losses only after i had refused it he said to give all of my wealth and property to him and from now on he will handle all the business from now on '' he said lamenting . '' But he said that he will tell mom about it what will you do then ? she does'nt like him getting refused for anything then ?'' she stated . '' Oh you don't have to worry i will make your mom understand , you both are precious to me '' he said patting her head . ''Its all because i remarried after your mom had died i am sorry '' he apologized . ''No you don't have to blame yourself you married only because i was little that's why '' she said consoling him . ''How was your day ? '' he asked . ''It was normal only i got scolded by my professor for late '' she replied . At that moment her brother had called his mom and told everything that has happened . '' Its such a touching reunino between daughter and father we don't get to see that now a days but me and my son does'nt get counted as your family dear ?'' a voice said , it was her step mom . '' You both are my family dear i love you all ''' her father replied . '' Your words and actions does'nt match , then why did you refused my son when he asked you ?'' she yelled . ''What your son is doing is called nothing called rubbish , he wants me to invest money in something which has no profits he's becoming stubborn day by day '' he shouted . '' He's your son if you want him to do something to something to do in your life then let him try something what will you use all your money for then what's your wealth for ?'' she yelled . ''Or are you planning to use your money for your daughter only ?'' she glared at Sophia . '' What are you talking about Sophia and he are both dear to me they are of equal importance to me '' he stated . '' I know that you onlyb think about your daughter that's why you are'nt plannig to let him start his business i know it but your daughter won't be here forever he's your successor is'nt he or is your daughter of more importance than my son '' she shouted . ''Enough is enough i don't want to listen to anyone or anything Sophia and my son they are all equal you should tell your stubborn son that i won't change my decision '' he shouted . ''Everyhting is the fault of your daughter i know it why did you had to marry me after your wife had died in the first place '' she glared looking at Sophia . ''Are you out of your mind ? you damm woman you are after my money only '' Admist all this Sophia could'n take all the bickering so she ran upstairs to her room . why did this had to happen to her only ? . She just could'nt take it all . Ever since her dad remarried it's been that way . She only wished for a loving fmily then why this ?. She locked her room then went to the window as she had always done ever since her childhood . From there , she looked at the cherry tree which her mother had planted when she was very little before her mother's death . Only after when they had become rich her mom and dad started quarreling very often and after one year later her mother died of illness or something that's what she had been told . Looking at the tree she was remebering about the times when her mother had been alive and they used to look at the tree when it was in full bloom in spring . '' Mom come back please , will you come to me ?'' Sophia prayed with her heart . Suddenly there's a buzz sound . She went to check it . It was her phone someone sent her a text message . '' Who's this unknown sender ?'' she thought to herself . ''Why are you standing by the window ?'' it said . She was quite surprised how did the sender knows that she was standing by the window . Is it a stalker ? . ''How do you know that ? who are you ?'' she replied back . Then she looked out the window but did'nt notice anyone outside her window . '' I know everything , i know everything about you and your family the reason why you are looking at the window and remembering about your mom right ?'' it replied . '' How do you know that ? who are you ?'' she replied . '' I am omnipotent , i know everything , or you can say it's telepathy joke i am an unknown person who can solve your problems , i know that your step mom quarrels with your dad very often '' it replied back . ''That's not true they are a very good couple '' she replied back . ''Miss Sophia you should not tell any lies , it's a very bad thing '' it replied . '' If you want any kind of help i can help you getting rid of your troubles like the problem within your family '' it replied . ''My family is not facing any kinds of problems we are a very happy family and my dad , mom and my brother along with my grandma and grandpa and my uncle they all love me '' she replied . ''You know very well that's not true , then what's about the thing your father taking over someone's property is it true ?'' it replied . '' What's that i don't know anything about something like that my father got the secret treasure from someone that's how he became rich '' she replied . '' You know too little about everything your father took the treasures worth of billions of dollars away from a person that's how he had become rich and your mom and dad quarreled about it everyday after that she had decided to committ suicide or she was given drugs everyday that's how she had eventually died '' it replied . '' But mom had died or an illness how's that posssible ?'' she replied . '' I won't tell you anything for now that's all you can know for now , but let me tell you one thing that your family is in danger and the one who's responsible for this is your family itself , goodbye '' it replied . ''''Hey who are you tell me that ? '' even if she sent tons of messages it won't reply back . '' Is this really true ? all that that person said ?'' she thought to herself. But she did'nt had the courage to ask dad about that nor even her mom ,. So while thinking about it all what's true or what's false she fell asleep on the bed . The next moment she woken up it was the sound of her phone it was ringing . She got all afraid of it she picked it with quivering hands . ''Hi Sophia , how are you doing '' said the voice over the phone . It was Edwards voice . '' I am fine why did you called me ?'' she replied . '' Its nothing that matter , but did something happened ? your voice sounds as it's creaking , are you okay ?'' he asked . '' No i am okay nothing happened '' she replied . ''Are you sure ? you can tell me anything you know if only you think of me as your friend , if you don't no need to say anything '' he sighed . She was thinking about whether it would be right to tell him or not after a minute of pause she said '' Actually something happened '' . THen she told him about the matter that has happened . After hearing about it everything Edward said '' that we should discuss about it tomorrow at college don't tell anyone about it for now '' . ''I know they will be worried i won't say anything '' she replied . ''Okay then i am hanging up for now '' said Edward . '' Okay then see you at college then , goodnight '' she replied . ''Okay then goodnight '' saying this the call ended . At this time it's already night . Someon was knocking on her door , it was a male voice . '' Are you there ? open the door it's me Samuel '' the voice said . She recognized right away it was her brother . She went with quivering hands and touched the knob then opened the door . She was wondering what he's doing here . She opened it there was the sight of her brother , who as not her own brother . '' Why did you take so long to open the door huh ?'' he demanded . ''I was sleeping that's why '' she murmered . '' Anyway i only wanted to see you and talk with you i heard that you were walking with a boy in your college is that true ?'' he asked sarcastically sitting on her bed . '' YEAH SO WHAT ?'' she asked in a low voice . '' You are supposed to talk to anyone in college he may be planning to use you to take all of our money away don't talk to him again or else ... '' he paused . ''Or else what ?'' asked she . '' Or else i will do this '' saying this he held her hand and pinned her onto the bed . ''Hey what are you doing ? leave me alone '' she protested . '' Oh so you can talk back now i see but how will you free yourself from this huh '' he said holding both of her hands together . '' Please stop he's the only person who talks with me in the entire college don't do anything to him '' she pleaded . '' Why should i listen to you ? will you give me anything in return ?'' asked he smirking . ''What should i give you i don't have money like dad does '' she replied . ''Oh dear it's not the money that i want it's you , you know thta we are not blood related or anything so ... '' he paused looking at her body exmaining it properly . '' So i want you to do what i tell you to do if you don't ... you know how much power we have i can destroy his entire life getting him out of his college and even from this world '' he whispered in her ears . '' NO '' she whimpered . '' So then will you do everything that i tell you to do ?'' he smirked . '' Yes i will or else you know what i will do to him ;'' he laughed . ''Why did this had to happen to her '' she thought to herself . '' This was a warning i am leaving now come and have dinner '' saying this getting up he left . '' I am sorry Edward '' she cried out .
