0 Celsius: To thaw a frozen heart novel Chapter 7

He just dived into the pool and that also deliberately near me .

I need to talk to him

At least I need to try

"Andro ....I mean.....Sir...I...I...was serious when...I said ...i'll do anything for your forgiveness...please give ..me a chance"

.

.

There was silence for a minute as he kept staring at me

"Okay then jump into the pool"

He said straight without blinking an eye

He knows I can't swim

Then why is he asking me to jump into the pool..

Is he testing me?

"What happened Miss Brown? Afraid? Are we?"

I looked into his eyes to see he was dead serious

I took small steps towards the pool

This is my only chance to get forgiven

I have to do it.

With each step I took my heart beat accelerated.

When I was a few steps away from the pool I saw blue water and thought of how deep it went scared me

It is very very deep...If I jump I will die

I thought

"Come on ..this is your only chance"

Andro said leaning on the wall of the pool with his elbows resting on the edge of the pool.

I looked at him and debated what to do....my legs were shaking and I don't know if another panic attack was coming

"I......I.....am.....af... afraid...of...water...I can't..."

For a second Andro had a look of concern on his face but next I felt a strong grip on my ankle and I was pulled towards the pool

It was so sudden that I didn't even got a second to hold on my breath and as my body landed on the surface of water large amount of water entered my mouth blocking my oxygen supply.

I moved my hands frantically trying to find anything to hold onto

Hoping for anything but was met only with water.

I opened my eyes to see blue colour everywhere

My view was hazy but still through it I could see bright sunrays over me.

I tried reaching for them...moving my arms legs everything but all in vain.

All of a sudden I felt myself coming on the surface of it,I sucked little amount of oxygen I could but before I could breathe I was again pulled back into the depths of water.

Sunlight was going further and further away,

My body was sinking deeper and deeper ,

My lungs were exploding and the little amount of air that I had managed to hold till now was escaping as bubbles.

My attempt ceased from exhaustion

My eyes got heavy and as I was going to accept death a strong grip on my arm pulled me back.

"You lost your only chance ....I thought you really wanted my forgiveness but guess what I was again wrong...."

His breath could be felt on my earlobe as he whispered his next words

'....you only want to come back in my life for money.."

With this he pulled himself away from me making my heart jump in fear

I grabbed his biceps laden arm refusing to let go

"Pl...ease....Andro....don't leave.."

His strong hands unwrapped my arm from his and left my hand...

I shrieked with fear as I felt myself going down while he turned around and got out from the pool.

"Andro...I...am...dr..owning!!!!!"

I shouted with all the strength I have hoping he will come back to save me

He is not coming back

O god I am going to die today

"You can't drown in a 5 feet pool when you are 5'7 inch ....idiota!"

He said turning around

Hhh?

I left all the struggle and let loose my body

Within seconds my feet touched the floor of the pool

Ohh I am safe

Silly me!
