　　"Don't tell me about those stupid things. You and I both know that we weren't bounded by that stupid deal. It was just for your protection nothing else. And Miss Ularu, I took her side only because I respect her father who is my former business partner. I thought you two just had a misunderstanding and I tried to stop you two but you were lunging at her as if you were ready to kill her. I thought if you harmed her then I would have a bad impression on her father who was once my teacher but never really thought that it could have been this serious. Fine! I agree what I did was not correct, a mistake. I shouldn't have raised my hand on you, hell I still curse myself for that but you. You shattered my heart into pieces" he said and all of a sudden the anger that I felt subsided with a feeling of worries.

　　"You could have asked me hell you could have confronted me. You were married to me and even though we didn't share the same feeling still I couldn't cheat on you. I expected you to ask me if it was related to our life. Every time I asked you that you can ask me anything you thought I was always asking you about that Nicholas. All you ever think is Nicholas! Nicholas! and Nicholas!" he sneered and his face contorted with anger scared me.

　　"How many times did I ask you not leave?" he took a menacing step towards me.

　　"Hu? Tell me! How many times did I ask you not leave?" he asked and I remembered the day when I was packing my stuff to come back home with my father. He did try to stop me. Not directly but indirectly.

　　"Answer me!" he snapped catching me off guard.

　　"Zachary I..." no words formed on my mouth as the burden of guilt felt on my shoulders.

　　"Did it ever fell before you that maybe Ularu was lying to you? You idiot.. You fight with me for every single little thing but you couldn't confront me about her. Hell, you could have asked me directly if I liked her. Did you really never notice how I felt for you? I have been in love since the time I had met you and every time you ignored my feelings. Have you ever felt or even realised why I cared for you?" he asked and the air in my lungs exhaled out as the words sink in.

　　"Zachar-"

　　"Once again! You showed me that you feel nothing for me. I am the only stupid one who has always longed for you. And I believe that I will always remain the only one," he said the last part slowly but I heard it. Before I could say anything he turned around and walked out of the room.

　　"Zachary! Wait!" I ran after him out of the room.

　　"Zachary please listen to me!" I begged running after him but as I was about to touch his arm he turned around and snarled on my face showing me a warning finger "Don't touch me" his voice laced with poison which hurt me.

　　"Za-" he didn't even let me finish because he opened the door and walked out slamming the door shut after him.

　　"Zachary," tears fell down my eyes as I stood there feeling hurt because I was the reason of pain for the person whom I loved.

　　"I told you!"

　　"I fucking told you that don't believe her. She is a cheap woman and I knew that type of woman would go to any extent to break healthy relationships," Kiara yelled at the top of her lungs pointing an accusing finger at me while I sobbed wiping the tear away using a tissue.

　　"I have hurt him badly Kiara," I sobbed and hiccupped.

　　"All this while I thought he was the one who hurt me but every time ... every freaking time he proved me wrong. He has always saved me and he has always loved me damn it. I am so stupid. All this while I have been the one who had hurt him and now he is so much in pain...oh my god! What am I going to do now Kiara? Tell me! Please tell me!" holding her arm I pulled her towards me but she jerked her arm away from me.
