Chapter 0348
"I should be asking you that. You suddenly disappeared. I've been trying to get to you all day and throughout the evening to no avail."
"And that's why you came over and waited for me?"
"Yes."
"You didn't have to do that! I'm not a child!"
"I know. But I did and I will do it again the next time you decide to act like a rebellious teenager!"
"You are impossible!" I walk past him and head into the house. He doesn't leave me be, he follows me all the way in and now we are in the living room, staring at each other and sighing at intervals.
"You look downcast. Tell me what happened." I start shaking my head in denial. Just thinking about what happened a while ago makes my heart hurt. If I start talking about it, I might cry.
"Nothing happened. I just needed some fresh air." I lie.
A wasted effort because Kyle doesn't look convinced. It is impossible for me to lie to him.
"You know I know that's a lie. You are also well aware of the fact I won't stop asking and I won't leave until you tell me what I need to hear. So let's not waste each other's time. Start talking." He bullies me like always. I let out a heavy breath and place one hand on my waist while the other tiredly massages my forehead. My head thoughts are bouncing like a toddler on trampoline.
"I told Ashanti." I finally talk after a long moment of excruciating silence between us. His mouth falls open as he stares at me, totally stupified. "No. You didn't!"
"Yes, I did. I had to. The last thing I want is for her to find out from someone else. She's going to hate me more than she already does." "How did she react?"
"She's completely heartbroken." I say in the most melancholic tone. "She.. she tried to hide it by acting tough and nonchalant about the whole issue, but I saw it in her eyes, I heard in her voice. She's hurt. She's angry. She's dissapointed. And do you know what makes me even sadder?" "No."
"She told me it's a sign that we are not meant to be with each other."
"She didn't mean those words." He tries to assure me but I shake my head.
"She did. She even left afterwards
"Because you let her go."
"What was I supposed to do? Lock her up in the car and bring her here by force?" "So, are you going to give up on her?" He asks, totally ignoring my own question.
His question makes my brain tick
like a time bomb. Just the thought of letting go of Ashanti makes my heartbleed like it has been cut open in two halves. Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
I will die before I let go of Ashanti.
"No!" I deny quietly. Firmly. "No. Of course not. I'm not going to let her go. I could never do that!"
"Good." He points to the staircase. "I know this is going to be hard, but go up there, take a shower, warm, cold, however you want it, eat something and then rest. We'll tackle this problem tomorrow, together, like we always do when there's a serious problem at hand. You are not alone in this. If you lose Ashanti as a mate, we, the subjects of this pack, will lose a great Luna and I'm not going to sit back and let that happen."
"I don't think I'm going to sleep tonight."
"Do the first two at least. I swear I'm going to tell Charlotte to monitor you and get back to me. If she calls and tells me you're being stubborn, I'l return and just so you know, I won't mind giving you a bath and feeding you myself."
My face turns dark.
What the fuck!

"Kyle you have over stayed your welcome. Leave my house." I order with a stern voice. His entire frame shakes with laughter.
"Be a good boy and do what I've asked." He gives a gentle smack on my shoulder. "Good night." Then he leaves.
I shake my head and start heading towards the staircase. Thoughts of Selena and Ashanti creep back into my consciousness as I ascend the flight of stairs.
My life is so complicated!
