Chapter-21

Cherish's POV:

later,

I tried to sleep in the bed, as Riccardo just placed me in the bed. He covered me partially with the comfort, he didn't spoke word the entire ride.

Riccardo switched off the table lamp as he said, "You should sleep, Cherish... don't think about today too much."

He was about to leave, I found myself grabbing his arm. I said, "Riccardo..... don't leave me alone..."

I faced him as my eyes got teary because of everything. I said pleading, "please..."

I don't know why, but everything can't be like this. I don't want to feel lonely.

He feels like he will protect me, he will never abandon me.

I need that right now.... at least right now.

Riccardo looked debating, but he got in the bed finally. He slept beside me pulling me closer to him.

Riccardo said, "Wife.... I said.. don't worry.... I am here...."

I know...

I am glad in some sense.

Whatever you are... you didn't hurt me till now.... never ask for anything in return.

I think, you don't have any bad intension against me....atleast I HOPE SO.....

Riccardo was looking at me so was I.

I had lot to speak, lot to complain... but will he listen my story.... or dismiss me as my brother did, saying I am just a burden... and selfish too.

or he will betray me like my father...

Or Accuse me like Wade.

He sad placing his hand my cheek, "Sleep...."

I asked instead, "You lied.... about your hand...."

He pulled his hand off me, he looks like he is guilty.

But I don't feel bad about it, I am just thankful he saved me.

I hugged him as I said, "You hurt your knuckles today... so it's not a lie either....." I embraced him searching for some comfort.

I felt his hand caressing my head, Riccardo said, "I didn't wanted to lose you..... I admit... my actions were childish..."

Wade's POV:

I kept the glass down, giving up on everything.

I sat on the floor as everything became too much, I lost her.

I lost the women I love, she betrayed me.

She said she loved me, but she married some rich old guy.

Cherish, why you did this to me?

What I said to her in anger?

I need to call her, I need to talk to her. I need my answers, I need my girl back.

She cannot leave me, she has to love me..... I can't live like this.

I called her again, but her phone isn't connecting. I hate every moment of this, where did I lack?

Where did I lose her?

Why would she choose someone else instead of me?

I felt someone's hand on my shoulder, Helena sat down near me. She whispered, "Wade.... look at yourself?... why are you suffering when she doesn't care?"
