Chapter 2: The Kiss
- "Please, Adrien, you have to forget about me," I told him again because he didn't reply. He entered and sat on the sofa.
- "Talk it out, today. Whatever you want to say" he said slowly.
- "Adrian. Whatever happened... Three years back
- ... It's over. Now, I'm over everything. So.. Don't come back in my life, please" I said clearly.
- He stood up and went towards the door. I thought he was leaving. But he locked the door instead.
- "What the hell! Open the door" I yelled at him.
- "Answer me. I loved you still you betrayed me why?" he said and took a step towards me. I took a step backward.
- "Why? Why can't you see me in your life?" he said and again stepped forward.
- "Why? Why do you say that I betrayed you when you cheated on me?" he was coming forward with every question and I was moving back with the same pace. He was so angry. I could've fainted.
- "Why? Why can't I move on like you?" he stepped forward again.
- "Why? Why did you do all that, Marie, Why?" he said and was very close. Close because I was stuck between the wall and him.
- "S
- ... Step back... Backward" I said with courage.
- "I won't today"
- "Why are you doing this? Ruining my life once was not enough?" I questioned him, by looking at his bloodshot eyes. They were red because of anger.
- "You ruined my life!" he said and shook my shoulders. I was startled.
- Suddenly his hands went up to my neck.
- "No... No!! Please
- , Adrian, step away!" I said and started crying. I wanted to go away. His touch was giving me chills. Although I could've just run away, his hands were not so tight, but my body was not listening...
- "I can't stay away anymore, Marie" he came and he came
- closer and kissed me. I was startled. I was losing it... My conscience. With all my courage, I pushed him away.
- "You... You are worse than a beast... Adrian... Mark my words... I hate you!!" I said and somehow I managed to open the door and run away.
- This was the first time I said those words directly to him. Our relationship was very complicated. So... I knew he would break it. And he did. Now... It's been years. Can I really not go away from my past?
- I ran and reached
- the park. I sat there. I was crying. But somehow I managed myself. Then I thought to go to work. It can only distract me from this mess.
- I reached my office. There's still one hour left before this office calls it a day. I don't have any important work. But I did. Some of the work of tomorrow. I hope I forget what happened today till tomorrow.
- Why did he do that? He knows... He knows it
- 's just too much. I hate him. I told him today. I wish... I could just disappear... Or he does.
- I reached my hotel. I'm happy he left. The door was locked from outside. I entered it. There was a note on the table.
- "I heard clearly what you said today, Marie. I don't have any doubts now. I just did that... Because I have lost my mind. I thought... I thought that if you feel the kiss you would get back all the memories.. Memories when we promised to stay together forever.. Memories when we held each other for eternity... I was stupid. Now.. I'm going to leave you forever. That's my promise. You'll never be able to see me again. I hope you live happily. You don't have to know any Adrian now. Your Adrian will be dead for you.
- - Adrian"
- "What... What... Why... I didn't know what was happening. I was crying. Yes, I was. I wanted him to disappear but now.
- .. When he did the same... Why am I crying... Please Adrian… I never wished that you disappeared. I hope you... I hope you break this promise... "
- I laid on my bed, half crying. I felt like my world is becoming more
- … More disastrous. With him... Without him… I couldn't decide. I wanted to go away. But… Now… I don't know what's happening. I wanted the night to end... Please.
