It was a good day as all the days had been since Bella had accepted me for who or what I was. It felt like a dream, not that I could sleep. She could and as I watched her drift into deep sleep her shivers made me realize she was in dire need of a blanket. I went to fetch one from her cabinet but there were none. Thinking that she must have left it in the dryer, I went to pick one. For the first time I was standing in her living room when a particular picture drew my attention. It was a familiar one, of a particular waterfall. I felt a hollowness like never before. The waterfall was still hidden from other humans, so how did that picture end on the wall of Bella's house.

I went home as the sun rose but Alice was not there , she and Jasper had gone to a concert in New York, she would be back tomorrow night. As the school drew to end , I was getting anxious. So as I dropped Bella to her home, I dropped my car at mine.

She was finishing homework as I entered in her room. Charlie would be home later than usual. I directed her to the picture as we went downstairs to cook dinner. "Do you know where this picture was taken", I asked nonchalantly. "That was a picture taken by my aunt. She died before I was even born. But her collection of photographs was a prized possession of Charlie, she replied. "I would often stare at them as I grew up. She was talented with camera. Her death broke dad. He rarely talks of her you know", she continued.

I could hear her words but with each word i felt like I was being shaken up. " What was her name", I asked. "Annalise or Anna as she preferred it", Bella replied not noticing my frozen body on her steps. She was usually very observant.

I took the knife from Bella's hands and started to dice the vegetables as per her instructions. "She seems important to you , But you never mentioned her before", I said. "It was never brought up, so I didn't. She was full of life you know, always travelling , always smiling. The photos she took are amazing. Each one containing a story of sorts. Let me bring them. Wait a moment", She replied as she made her way to grab the pictures.

As Bella showed me each picture , I knew It was my Anna, my sweet beautiful Anna who took them. What game was the fate playing, maybe she was the cruel harpy laughing as she hurt me again and again.

I found the picture which I had taken of Anna , on her fateful birthday. There were a substantial amount of my pictures too, no faces only side profiles. Anna always was protective of me, hiding me when I didn't even notice her taking my pictures.

Pointing to one of my pictures Bella said" Her boyfriend, some guy named Masen was there till her last breath. Dad never met him , but he was the one who took care of aunt Anna. He even paid off all the hospital bills. Everybody wanted to meet him, but he had a psychotic break and was admitted to a mental hospital after my aunt's death. She was so happy with him, It was all very tragic. A love story that would never be completed. I hope he was fine in the end and moved on. That is what my aunt would have wanted"

I had moved on and I was happy with Bella, maybe It was her blessing in some form as I looked at her picture , her beaming smile burning me through them.
