I Need You

35. A promise to be broken

There is no sign of him in the room when I wake up. Just then I hear car sound from the driveway. I rush downstairs and head out of the door. He stops the engine when he sees me. "What's wrong sweetheart" he says getting down from the car. I don't speak anything. I just hug him tight. I don't want him to leave. 

"Promise me that you'll come back soon D" I ask him still resting on his warm chest. He rubs the back of my head and says ok. "This is the one promise I don't want you to break" I say with a cracking voice. "I'll not" he says and hugs me tight. "By the way nice post" he says winking at me. Last night I wasn't able to catch up sleep. So I made a collage of mine and Aaron's pics and then posted it on my instagram and twitter with a caption MINE.. 

"Tell me what does D mean" he asks when he is in the car. "I'll tell you when you comeback" I say looking down. "Don't cry when I am not around sweetheart. I can't even think of someone else trying to comfort you when you are sad. Be in my shoes till I get back" he says rubbing the tears rolling down my cheeks. I nod and give him a smile. He shouldn't worry about me when he is on a business trip. He waves to me and leaves the driveway.

The house feels so empty and dull without him. I just roam around the house and cleaned it thrice. I don't know why I am feeling bad about him leaving. He would have stopped if I asked him to. I went to his room and sat on his bed looking at the pictures. He looks so happy in these pics. I have made him sad all these years rejecting and pushing him away. But he waited for me to come. For us to be together.

My post is loaded with a lot of comments. I spent my day reading each one of them. Some are not happy with this. While are some are very happy with me being with Aaron. Many wanted me to be with Noah, but we are nothing but friends. Even Aaron has many fans. Mostly girls. They are quite disappointed according to their comments. I took a shower and went downstairs to have some food.

Aaron's POV:

I promised her that I would come back, but I don't know if I would. I am not sure of it. Yesterday I chose mandarin so that she wouldn't understand what I am speaking. I told everyone to support her and take care of her when I am not around. Most of them are old, so they are passing on their position to their next generation. She would have a fresh start if I don't come back.

Austin moved out of the house recently. We got information that he is Switzerland. I am going alone. I don't want anyone else to lose their lives coz of him. It's good that no one knows that it is Austin. I don't Mia to be sad anymore. I just now made a promise that I may break at any point today or tomorrow.

I keep looking at the her post. Just the simple MINE explains everything. She looks pretty and happy in those pics. I just want her to stay like this.  I prepared everything for her to be happy. But I didn't give her a chance to chose. This time I made a decision for her. And I think she would respect that. 

I arrived at the destination. But I wasn't expecting him to have security. The house is fully packed with security. The long flight and the drive is making me weak, but I am strong enough to face him. I won't let him go now. I waited till it is dark.

There are men every where watching. I silently went into the house. I searched every room but he isn't in there. I went into his study and he's there. Looking at the files very relaxed. The door hits the wall when I push it making him look at me. I don't have much time, his men would be here in anytime.

"What brings you here Aaron my boy" he says smiling. "I know who you are and what you want. But you ain't getting it" I say with a firm voice. "And is that why you trained my daughter?" he asks with a cunning smile. I want to break his teeth. "You don't deserve to be her father. You don't deserve her. You tried to kill your own daughter" I say gritting my teeth.

"She isn't a big deal Aaron. I even killed my son" he smiles for that. Only for the reason that he is her father I am holding back. But he don't deserve to live. His men come in time and hold me back. "I'll kill her after I finish you of Aaron" he says with a dreadful voice. 

I punch him hard and he falls back. His men try so hard to hold me back but it ain't helping. Austin takes out his gun and shoots me. I push his men aside and take my gun out. I aim the gun at him but all I see is Mia's face. They both look a bit similar. I can't do this. I can't 

He shoots me again and again. I run to him, but he escapes. He runs out of the house. I follow him into the woods. The wounds are fresh and pouring out blood, but he needs to die. He should die.

I shoot him in the leg he and we both fall down to the ground. Later I feel someone's hand on my leg. I open my eyes with difficulty. I see someone dragging me to the house. I try to get out of the grip, but this man is holding me hard.

When he leaves my leg, I look around and I see all the files and men in the room. I wince in pain only to make them laugh. They beat me on my open wounds and they are getting their satisfaction,

"There wouldn't be anyone to stop me from having that position" Austin says keeping his foot on my throat. I choke for air. "No evidence and no person who knows the real me right" he says walking to and fro. "I am the king and I am the only one" he says before lighting the lighter. The house is filled with gas. "Bye Aaron" he says locking the doors from outside. He didn't even let a single person leave this room. All his men are here. They run around in terror. But it is too late, he throws the lighter in the room and then he escapes.
