What is stopping us?

Who do i choose?

"Missed me?"

"What the hell are you doing here?!!!"

"Well that's no way to greet me."

"I thought you left to go visit your family?! You have to leave immediately!"

"Well yes but I never lied. I did come to meet my family."

The door opens and Alizeh's eyes widen. I turn around to see who it is.

"Murat? Thank you for coming! Help me save Alizeh and Meera."

I'm so glad he's here and he has something in his pocket but I can't see what it is. He starts walking towards me and I feel relieved but he passes me.

"Umm you want to help Alizeh first?"

Then I noticed. He grabbed my arms and tied them together. He then walked towards Maya and They smiled at each other.

"Rahul I want you to meet my brother Murat Arnav Malory."

"No. B-but your with Meera! HOW DARE YOU BETRAY HER."

"Ugh yes Meera she was so annoying sometimes you know? I really wanted to slap her but I had to wait for my sisters plan to work first."

"W-why are you doing this!"

"AFTER MY FATHER KILLED YOUR MOTHER HE HAD TO PAY FOR THE CONSEQUENCES! And by doing that Meera's dad shot him dead. All because of the affair he was having with your mother. I was only 5 years old when I witnessed him getting shot in the head!
So now your gonna have to pay for this. So now choose who's life you rather save."

He took a gun out of his pocket and pointed it Alizeh and Alizeh was starting to panic.

"No!"

"Ok then."

He then pointed it towards Meera. Tears started forming my eyes as I can't imagine a world without meera and Alizeh.

"HOW DARE YOU GAMBLE WITH THEIR LIVES!"

"Choose or I would choose for you."

"I'm not choosing let them both go!"

"1"

"Murat I swear let them go."

"2"

"You know what just kill me!"

He stopped counting and looked surprised. Mayas face turned pale. She whispered something into Murats ear but he pushed her away.

"You would rather die instead of them 2 dying? Wow you are a hero? But let's analyze things real quick."

Analyze? What does he mean by that? He walked towards Alizeh and hold her chin up so that she can look at him. I could see the fear in her eyes.

"Alizeh, Alizeh sharma. A woman you just met. Let's see.... she helped you with your addiction. But she is also rushing you to quick right? She stayed with you all these years and she loves you. But now the question is... do you love her?"

I didn't want to respond because he's right. I just me Alizeh and she was their for me, and she really loves me. But do I love her enough to choose her over Meera? He pushed Alizeh to the ground and started walking over to Meera's unconscious body. He held her up. Murat started shaking her until her eyes were finally open. I tried to move out of these ropes to save Meera from his filthy hands.

"Ahh yes meera. Your childhood sweetheart. I mean she is the only person that really understands you right? She has been there for you your whole life and has even loved you. But of course you being you, you were blind enough to not see it."

I looked at Meera and her eyes had tears I couldn't handle this I didn't know what to do.

"So Rahul.
Who
Are
You
Going
To
Choose?"
