Nelson's POV:

The next morning, Ella asked me to drop her at her parent's house.

I dropped her there and left for my own home.

It's been a day since I dropped her there and she is still staying there, uncle told me.

I wanted to meet her, we had to talk about that kiss so I drove to uncle's house.

I found uncle and aunty in the living room where I greeted them and kissed aunty's cheek.

She is like my mother.

"Where is Ella?", I asked them.

The smile disappeared from their faces and I internally started to panic.

"What happened?", I asked when none of them spoke.

"She has locked herself in her room since last night", aunty told me, "she is not even talking to anyone and even refused to eat."

"I guess everything effected her a lot", uncle added with a sigh.

"Did you try to talk to her somehow?"

"She is not ready to talk, she locked the room from inside and is not opening it", uncle said.

This is not right.

"Aunty, do you have something to eat for her?"

"I made sandwiches this morning."

"Can you please pack it?"

She nodded and left, next I turned to uncle.

"Mind if I break the door?"

He gave me a weird look. "Go on but don't hurt yourself."

I gave him a thumbs up and ran upstairs to her room.

I knocked first.

"Go away!", she shouted.

"Ella?"

There was a pause. "Nelson, go away..."

"I won't until and unless you open this door."

"I don't want to meet anyone, I don't want to answer any questions."

"I am not asking you anything, baby. Just open this door."

"No."

"Then this door is gonna break."

"And I have uncle's permission", I added.

I waited for a minute incase she decided to open the door but when she didn't...I kicked the door at the side of the keyhole and barged in.

There she was sitting on the floor with her back against the wall. Her eyes were puffy and red and so was her face.

She looked at me through her tears.

"Look what you have made of yourself, baby", I said walking towards her.

Sniffing, she wiped away her tears and turned her head sideways.

"Get up, Ella", I said extending my hand to her.

"Baby, get up. Please."

When she didn't get up, I grabbed her bicep and forcefully made her stand up.

"Go away, idiot!" She shoved my shoulder.

"Ella...", I said softly.

"Go away!" She started pounding on my chest as tears fell from her eyes.
