AIDEN'S POV:

I took out my mobile which was fit in a selfie stick and placed it in front of us. This technique should definitely work, after all girls go crazy for photos and especially selfie. "Come on Ms. thief, let's have some photos, say cheese." I started clicking photos thinking that she'll open her eyes after hearing the "click" sound but even after clicking a dozen of photos, she was still not opening her eyes. I saw those photos and she was looking really funny in them. Clenched teeth, closed eyes, scared expression, oh my god!

"Ms. thief, you're looking funny in them and I'm sure you'll regret looking at them later." I was amused, she didn't even open her eyes for photos. Interesting, she must belong to those rare category of woman who don't run after photos. It was almost time to land down and she was still not opening her eyes, gosh she's missing so much. No, I won't let her do that. "Ms. thief." I put my hand over her to convince her but the next moment, she held my hand tightly and my heart.. skipped a beat. I looked closely to her face which was sweating and pale.

All this time as I was trying to help her, I thought she was scared for nothing but right now, I could... I could feel how stressed she was. Her hand that was holding me was hot and I could even listen to her heartbeat that was beating irregularly. "Ms. thief" I called her out and her grip on my hand increased. I was so close to her, her features were so beautifully visible. Her breath was falling on my face which was doing some magic upon me. My eyes were stuck on her face and my mind was stuck on her increasing heartbeat.

I don't know what came into my mind, I just wanted to soothe her pain, I just wanted to make her relaxed and the only way I saw at that moment was to..

HELENA'S POV:

I was scared as hell, I was feeling like I'll fall down the very next moment. My body was heating up and my heart was racing with fear without any ease. I couldn't see anything around me as I was too afraid to open my eyes but then I felt a hand over mine. I knew it was him and it's strange but I felt as if... As if nothing will happen to me until and unless he's with me. He was the only ray of hope in front of me right now so without any second thought, I grabbed his hand immediately and the next moment I felt chills down my spine.

There was some kind of peace around me, and it was helping me to relax a bit but the next moment, something happened that blew my mind. I felt... I felt a kiss on my cheek! I couldn't believe it, I felt as if I was dreaming! My eyes went wide open, and I looked towards the direction where I felt a kiss to see whether I was dreaming or was it reality. And I realized it was not dream when I saw him staring at me.

"Don't be scared, I'm with you and I'll never let anything happen with you until I'm behind you. Trust me." I was confused with myself, I should be getting angry for what he did but right now I wasn't angry at all. I wanted myself to shout on him for doing that but the words that he spoke looking into my eyes were roaming all over my mind, distracting me from speaking anything to him.

"Deep breath." He ordered me with his eyes still staring at me. "Ms. thief, breath..." I came out of thoughts when he said it for the second time and like a puppet, I started following his instructions. I started taking breaths and every time I did, I was feeling a bit relieved and light. "Now, look around. The endless sky that holds a different beauty will make you feel that only if you could live freely in the air forever. But the green hills below that makes us realize that we're supposed to go back to the place where we belong. So it's the little time we have, don't waste it, just enjoy without any second thought, without any regret."

Although his words were passing through my ears, those words.. went straight to my heart. I don't know if he said it to make me feel relaxed for the situation we are in but for me, those words were for the real life situation I was going through. I wanted to move on, I was doing my best and somewhere I felt I succeeded as well. I didn't have love for Andrew in my heart anymore, I didn't trust Melissa anymore but the wound in my heart was still fresh and every time I would focus upon the wound just the way I was focussing upon the fear of open height right now.

But the way he said, I should enjoy the moment before we come to an end to this little journey in air, I felt it's important that I enjoy my life with the people who are mine before my life comes to an end. I got a lesson for life today and for this, I shall always be thankful to him.

"Come on Ms. thief, go on. Don't miss this chance." As he said that, I nodded at him with my subconscious mind and turned around towards the sky. "Speak out the thing which you want to do in life here, promise to yourself that you'll never give up so that the whenever you'll feel low in your life, you'll remember the promise you made to yourself when you were high in the air and fight until you get it. So that your efforts to fulfil that promise would be as high as the sky." If someone says words do wonders, I believe up on it from now on cause right now, his words were doing wonders to me.

I closed my eyes and all the moments of my life flashed in front of my eyes, be it the happiest or the worst moments in my life. As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw the blank sky. I felt that this blank sky will be able to gather all the things going on my mind. "I want to live my life without any regret, without any more pain. I just want to live my life with the people I love and I promise I'll do everything to make it possible." I screamed on the top of my lungs and I meant every single words I spoke.
