Chloe POV
I ran from the place but I couldn’t hold my tears. Last night I had developed so soft corner for the man but now it was destroyed completely. My heart was never in so much ss before but only a single person made feel this way.
I couldn’t even express how am I feeling when that person said Mr King beat his own flesh till he couldn’t breathe. Just how could he be? Isn’t he his son too then why is there so much partiality between them? Why?
My feet kept on running until I saw the person again in the parking lot.
"Excuse !!" I could no longer control my breath.
"Yes?" He turned toward .
"Where is he?" I m still trying to slow down
"Who?" he asked again.
"Aa - Aaron where is he?" I asked.
"I don’t know", he said and was about to leave when I held his hand.
"Please stoppppp"
"Stop, therefore"
I kept on holding his hand while my entire body shivered the way I ran from the upper floor.
"Please stop....I know you can’t defy your boss but please I need to know. Tell I won’t tell anyone you inford or anything. I will quietly do my work. Please see.....it all happened because of and I can’t hold the guilt soone hurt because of ", I almost beg.
"I took him to his ho last night so maybe he is getting treated right now", he said and left.
I can’t say how glad I was when he told .
I didn’t delay anymore but got a cab and went to his address. For the last ti I looked toward the hospital top floor but that wasn’t even my fault. Last night I didn’t want to leave because I had the thought sothing might happen to him but in reality it was not him but I.... Unknowingly pushed soone to die.
Inside the car the entire ti I was thinking about Aaron. I don’t know how he is. I don’t know how he reacted years back but seeing him I couldn’t say just how miserable he is.
I clearly rember when I saw him looking at Aaron for the first ti on our break period I really thought just how much this guy’s in love with his brother but couldn’t say. I had the feeling that if he can love his brother like this then how would he even love the person who is going to spend the rest of his life with him. She must be lucky right?
But who could have known I’m the unlucky one.
The ti when I went to get a letter from my friend I saw how his face looked so lonely as if I could hold that little boy and pat his back saying everything will be alright. He needs to be strong but now I’m the one who made him like this.
I kept on hitting my nails.
"Miss, we reached your address", he said.
I quickly ca out of the cab and paid him.
"But this is more than the cab fare?" The driver stopped .
"It’s ok to keep it", I said and ran inside.
I didn’t even have the chance to stay there and fine money when it already has been hours.
As I reached in front of the mansion the doors were already opened. I could see zero people there.
"Anyone ho!!!"
I called nurous tis but no one responded. I road around the hall and still found none but when I was about to sit on the couch I heard a loud scream.
"Ahhhhh"
"Leave eeee!!!"
"Let go!!!!"
"It hurts!!!!"
"Let go!!!"
Those screams were echoing around my ear making clench my heart.
I slowly stepped toward the upper room. My heart keeps making try to stop but I just couldn’t. It already makes hurt just hearing him cry like this then if I see him how much guilt I will hold. I’m still scoring. I followed my step and reached near the first room where I found an old man standing.
"Excuse !!!"
"I tried to call everyone nurous tis but when I saw none I ca up."
I said while hesitating but the old man kept glaring at .
He slowly tried to move toward .
"Who are you?"
"How did you co here?"
"You? Are you Ayla?" he asked but I don’t even know who she is.
"Ayla? Who is she?" I asked.
"I’m not Ayla but Chloe", I said looking down.
"You are his friend?" he asked.
I don’t know if we are friends or not but seeing him getting hurt makes feel like I’m his friend.
"Yeah I m", I said while he let space to co toward him. There was a doctor and a person I don’t know who was standing quietly. While Aaron’s body is completely marked with whip marks. He kept on mumbling not to hit him. He kept on screaming at mom. He kept on crying when soone touched his body, which was enough to break a person.
"Were you the one who call him last night?" the old man asked.
I nodded.
"Why?"
"If you are his friend you must have known what the guy was doing to him right?" as he said I clenched my fist.
"Sorry, it was my fault."
"I beca soft hearted and made him bear the pain", I kept on hitting my lips while saying.
"I told him not to go,’’ the old man said.
"I told him not to call him brother but this was the first ti he agreed with him as his brother but see what they made him?"
"They don’t even see him as a human being."
"They kept on eating his life."
"I never wanted to hate that boy as well if Morris could have treated both equally but he never bothered to look at my little child but when last night he heard the other one not waking up he begged to contact Morris. I denied it but he didn’t listen."
"He is just like his mother. So soft hearted even though it will hurt them only", he said holding so much expression together.
I wanted to go to him and give him a hug.
I wanted to tell him to please calm down but I couldn’t as all of this happened just because of .
While I was talking to him I felt Aaron’s scream go louder than before. It was so loud which made pull toward him making him hug in front of everyone.
I patted his back.
"Aaron"
"Aaron"
"Everything is ok"
"Calm down"
"Sleep well"
"Everything will be fine once you wake up from your dream so sleep well till then", I said like a lullaby and it worked like a charm which put him to sleep.
I patted him in places where it doesn’t hurt.
The old man left the room. I don’t know why but soon others too left the place. Soon Aaron started snoring which made it easy to apply the dicine on his bare body.
"Sleep well", all I can say is that but so unsettling feelings kept on growing making unable to think.
What more troubleso thing is going to happen to .
What more do I need to see?
I don’t know.
I ca out of the room when I saw a girl standing in the middle of the hall. As I saw her she looked away from with a hurtful expression as if I’m the one blad for this.
I went closer to her.
"So from now on don’t co here", old man said while I was all clueless.
"You made him sleep?" he asked while the girl was still looking at .
"Ah yeah he is sleeping", as I said she ran from the mansion.
"Can I ask who the person was?" I asked.
"No one soone who kept on clinging on to my little boy so I ward her this ti so that she won’t pester him anymore", he said casually.
"Oh ok I’m going now", I was about to leave and he stopped .
"Where are you going?" he asked.
"Ho?"
"Have breakfast with ", he said.
"But I-
I couldn’t say.
"Is there any problem?" he asked.
"Ah no let’s go", I followed him toward the dinning while my body shivered from top to bottom. The anxious feelings kept hovering over .
"So what do you do?" he asked as he took a sip of his coffee.
"Ah I’m studying computer science in the sa college as Aaron", I said.
"Oh nice, you will be a great help to us in future", he smiled again making all clueless..
"Ah I didn’t understand", I said.
"It’s ok there is no hurry."
"I didn’t know this little boy had such a pretty girl as a friend", it sure made blush.
"Co ho whenever you want. We both will be happy to see you", he kept smiling.
It feels as if I’m attending a marriage interview.
But I’m sure it’s not.
