chapter 10

Narrator's POV :

His blue shirt was dyed in a shade of red from the blood stains on it his hands had blood too one hand clutched his pistol while his other hand dangled as he walked into his room
Lek has come home after killing someone
On the side table of his bed sat two picture frame one was that of a young boy laughing happily as he points to the ocean
While the other frame held a photograph of Lek carrying the young man in his arms both of them happily displaying their engagement rings

Lek picked up the photograph of the boy and traced it ...

" Dana I finally  did it... I avenged you dead ..I killed the murderer who took you away from me .."

He smiled still looking at the boys image

" now it's time for me to come to you ...there is no life here Dana this world is cruel  ...than living life as a dead person inside .. I wish to be with you

Even if I get lost today who is gonna search for me anyways ? "

" i am gonna be selfish one last time ...to come to you ..wait for me in afterlife as you promised baby "

Beam's POV:

I sat silently staring at forths photograph on the funeral table he looked so alive so happy in that picture

I felt a press on my hand I immediately  looked to my right jessi was looking  at me her innocent eyes where filling up with tears ... I pressed my hand on her cheeks and let her lay her head on my shoulder 

With my other hand I pulled back Marco's hair softly behind his ears as the kid just fell asleep laying his head on my lap ... both of them looked drained as they had not slept enough

I turned to take a look at james he sat in front of  forths picture he has been sitting in the same place for a whole day and a half ... I couldn't manage to get him to eat or sleep

I found out about forths family details only after his death
James was jessi and Marco's elder brother and  all the three were step brothers and sister to forth ...

three years ago after the death of his father forth had to take up his father's business and became the leader of DZ too ..

at the same time he came to know about his father's affair with a korean women and how his father had abandoned that women and kids so forth brought them in to his place and treated them as his own family ...

I hadn't shed any tears before any of them ..I had to be strong for the family who forth cared for so much

That's what forth would've wanted me to do to

Narrator's POV :

Charlie walked hesitantly to were James was ..

"James .." he called in a low voice to the figure sitting on the floor

As soon as james heard Charlie's voice he shivered... With all his might he got up from the floor  he had emotions running  wildly inside him hatred..murderous instinct..betrayed feeling..suffocation ..wanting to cry everything only by looking  at this person In front of him 

Just his love for this person has priced the life of his brother

When james found out what exactly Charlie has done he felt dreadful but it was too late ...his love took his dearest brother's life

Even if he killed Charlie now it wont bring back his brother back to life ..

Topping all of this guilt james felt...the guilt that forth had known all along who Charlie was and that he warned james about him was eatting up james heart

James took a deep breath he didn't utter a word to Charlie  and turned to leave but Charlie tried to stop him

"James  listen to me for a moment  ..I truly loved yo.." before he could finish his word .. james collapsed on the floor

Worried Charlie bent down to touch James but the latter shivered in his touch ...

The other two james's bodyguards who was also present there immediately pushed Charlie aside and one of them carried  james away

The other bodyguard looked at Charlie they knew what Charlie had done too they were  angry at him too but without james orders they could not hurt charlie

"Go back ... my boss doesn't want you here officer " he said before following the way the other body guard took james away

Charlie stood there not knowing what to do but he had something to say to James... but understood the situation and left the funeral house without making more trouble

* 2 days after forths funeral  ...*

Beam traced his fingers on the study table as he sat down on the chair ... he was tired not just because of the lack of sleep and intake of food ...he hasn't been able to let out his true emotions..he acted all strong but ..was he fine ? no ..

Now sitting in forths chair flashes of memory while forth was still alive sitting on this very chair working stuck beam .. he closed his eye leaning his head back on the chair trying to fall asleep but he couldn't he opened his eyes again

This time his hand pulled open the drawer of the study table .. to check if forth had any of his sleeping pills still
But the drawer was empty except for one file ... it was his name on the folder ..

Beam pulled it out and opened the file inside the file sat documents... and one letter

It was a brief one ..addressed to him from forth

" love beam ,

if you got hold of this file   then I am not here beside you .. I will apologize to you first for that .. I hadn't fulfilled my promise of staying with you forever even once ...all I bring you is trouble  isn't  it  baby ? 
This document is that of the cafe and this house ...I've brought it in your name .. I can't  leave behind any of the other assets ..because I didnt buy it with my own money but these two I bought with my hard earned money baby ...I hope I will live with you through these  atleast.. .. I wish to talk more but ... I dont know why but my words are stuck in my mind and these tears  keep following  .... why ?

I've loved you beam ..I will still love you after my last breath is gone too ..forgive me once again beam
Live your life like that crazy artist kid I fell in love with ...please

With love ...forth "

How should I react ...what should  I  say ?? Should I forgive him ??

Soft tears flowed down beam's cheeks all the grief he held back finally started to pour out .. as he clutched the letter closer to his chest and curled up on the floor

Note :

[ charlie was the young officer i introduced in before chapter .. .. he was sent as spy to collect details about forths identity by Lek...]
