He thought she ca into his dreams.
" I am longing to be with you, to be in your arms. To hear you whisper that you still love . Longing for the mont when we can be together again…" he said in a slurred voice and again closed his eyelids.
She turned her face and leaned towards him. She kissed his forehead with tear-filled eyes.
" Ad… Every day without you is like living hell. I could not express my pain to you in words. We need you so much but we are not lucky to have you in our lives." She said to him while crying.
" We are not destined…." She added.
She walked towards the gifted bonsai tree in his room and touched gently on it. A small smile ford on her lips. She kissed the flower of the tree and said, " I wish our love would have blossod like you with beautiful flowers of joy and happiness"
She removed his shoes and socks on his feet. Then she covered it with the sheet.
Before leaving his room, she looked at him and walked out crying. At midnight she walked on the empty streets. After controlling herself, she booked the cab and reached ho.
….
…..
The door of her ho was open, she understood Ruby and Martin would be worried about her. She saw Little Sam was sleeping on the couch in the hall whereas Ruby and Martin were sitting in the chairs, waiting for her.
" Kathie…" Ruby ran towards her and hugged her.
" Are we looking like fools to you? Don't you have the common sense to call us or ssage us? Do you think of Sam? " Martin shouted at her angrily.
"Martin…..calm down. I made Sam sleep with difficulty. If you shout, he will wake from his sleep. Please…" Ruby interrupted.
" Sorry...Martin. One of my colleagues was not feeling well and I took her to the hospital. After that, I accompanied her ho. I waited till she was okay. At that mont, I forgot to inform you and also my mobile was in silent mode" she lied.
" Next ti, attend our calls. We were so worried about you as you didn't answer our calls.." Ruby suggested but Martin left to his room with a serious face.
Katherine nodded her head and picked Little Sam in her arms from the couch. She walked silently to their room and placed him carefully on the bed. She took a pair of pajamas and went to the dressing place in the room. While changing into her pajamas she noticed the bite of him on her cleavage. She touched over there and rembered his words. She felt so guilty for his suffering.
She quickly wiped the tears at the corner of her eyes and walked towards the bed. She laid beside Little Sam and cuddled him. She looked at Ruby who was already sleeping. She closed her eyes thinking about Adrian. She was so worried about his state. Sleep was far away from her eyes.
Thinking for a long ti, she decided in her mind to make him hate her so that he would be happy in his future. She knew it would be her heart who hurt more by this decision but she had to.
…..
...
Adrian slightly opened as he started missing the warmth against his body. He sensed the familiar surroundings.
He held his hand on his forehead which was aching badly. Then he rembered the fight between both of them in his cabin and how Katherine tried to stop him. He also rembered that he was too drunk last night to drive. He could barely walk so Katherine drove his car. He recollected how she apologized to him with teary eyes.
He had been looking for the woman and he had been looking for her for a long ti and now, she is suddenly here, he is talking to her.
Since he joined the company he was about to pick up the conversation of the past relationship and she was trying to avoid the topic. He was confused why Katherine had been acting so weird because last night was why, he had to be sure of that, he needed to know why she was acting this way, this...this way.
Her eyes haven't changed, her facial expressions haven't changed, but the voice is different a different voice. A different tone and the words she speaks are not what he had expected.
He can't bring himself to open his mouth and speak her na. He was talking to her but he didn't find her beside him.
What if she is a fignt of his imagination?
He winces when he feels the prickling sensation of the mories and he wants to fight it but he can't fight it.
The mories he's feeling are like a thousand knives stabbing his heart. He wants to scream out loud but no sound cos out. Katherine is saying her na over and over again, and still no response.
He screams out in agony, "KATHERINE!"
She just stares at him as if she is staring at sothing she can never have.
Her eyes beco like edges of the white, her face has no more expression. Her body is motionless, her mouth twisted to one side.
He reaches out one hand, he has to. He reaches out to touch her but the touch is just like his hand reaching out for air. Like he is reaching for sothing that isn't there.
He feels the pain more acutely this ti and he feels the pain in his heart more than he has before. He feels like he is being torn apart.
He cries out, but what he hears is nothing.
He can't see her anymore but he has to know if she is real, he has to know if she's still standing before him. And although he can't see her, he senses her presence.
He felt that familiar pull on him, the sa pull he felt when he was looking for her a few years ago. He tries to ignore it but he can't, it's too strong and it's getting stronger. He is speechless, he doesn't know what to do.
He is so weak and he can barely even move. He can see her, he can see her just like he had seen her when they had parted ways six years ago. She is still standing before him, the sa beautiful Katherine.
There is a tear on her cheek and she's sobbing and her tears fall upon his face, she looks distraught.
He can't move to wipe the tears away. He wants to touch her and he wants to hold her in his arms.
He wants to reassure her and tell her that everything would be alright. But he can neither do what he wants nor what he feels.
He is powerless, frozen at this mont. He does not know what to do and what is worse, he doesn't know if she is real or not. He is still holding his hand, the one which is outstretched towards her.
He wants to reach out and touch her, he wants to hold her and make her feel better.
He blinks and his eyes hurt as if soone had been rubbing salt into them. He is wiping the tears on his face as he opens his eyes, she has disappeared.
He looks around. He is in his bedroom, he hadn't felt this when he woke up earlier, he was not tired at all.
He could not figure out what had happened. Katherine had left him and he was never sure why she had left him but he rembered how she had cried over him, she had cried for him.
Sighing in frustration, he laid on the bed and closed his eyes. He sensed her hand stroking his hair. He could sense her fragrance on his bed. He could sense her warmth close to him. The sa warm feeling that he rembered from six years ago.
The feeling of the touch of her hands on his forehead, the feeling of her lips on his cheeks. He could feel her emotions and he could feel her sadness.
He felt the pain of her tears. He could feel her arms around him. He could feel the trembling of her body. He could feel the paleness of her lips against his own. He could feel the closeness of her breath. He could feel her closeness as he breathed in her scent.
He got up from his bed and noticed sheets over him. He also found his shoes and his socks were removed from his feet. Then he realized it was not his imagination but she was real. He sat on the floor as he had done many tis before, six years ago, sitting with her. He saw the clock hanging on the wall. It was 2 in the late hours.
He leaned his head back at the edge of the bed still sitting on the floor and closed his eyes.
" I had no choice left with to go away from you. Do you think I would be happy without you? " he recollected her words.
" Buttercup....I will show you what I can do to get you back???" He challenged her in his mind.
