How dare he say that about me ?! i'm not self respecting ? i'm anything but that . is it because I was tipsy for a couple of days ? is it because I acted like a child ? though I never did . why does his words hurt more than before , why do I care more now ? I rub my hands over my face , my head spinning and I feel sick . I need to make a promise to myself that i'm never again going to fall into those men tricks , I need to focus on the only man that matters to me , my father and that's it .

There's a knock on my door and I hold my breath , I don't want to see his face , I will murder him right here . the doors open and a man in suit walks in , holding purple flowers , my favorites , hiding his face , I quickly stand .

"There is this guy .. who is really fucked up .. in every single way possible " he says and I know who is he . I sigh and sit back as he continues .

"He's an ass who acts like a teenager, he fucked up so many times and he feels like shit , he asks for chances and he gets them immediately but .. he needs to give something back .. he needs to understand that even though it's never going to be like it used to be , he has to thank god for the Eva who is still around after everything had happened " he removes the flowers and walks toward my desk placing them there .

He walks around and kneels in front of me . he takes my hand and kisses it . "I promise that I will never interfere in your life anymore , I lost you once and I won't risk that again , it's your life and you know what you're doing " he says and I swallow hard , oh Max .

"Clearly I don't anymore " I mumble and look at our hands in my lap . I don't know what to do with myself anymore , let alone my life .

"Eva i'm so sorry for everything i've said and done , I swear I was an asshole and I was just frustrated .. please forgive me , i'm nothing without you " I look up into his eyes , trying to read his emotions I don't want to be a fool again I want to believe him but what happened 20 minutes ago is making me dizzy "Eva?" he touches my cheek and I close my eyes .

"I don't know what to do" I whisper . 

"What do you mean ?" he asks and I shrug . 

"Just forgive me and give me one more chance , I promise it'll be the last one " his eyes are glowing , I know Max for a long time but then it felt like I don't know him at all . I sigh and he kisses my forehead "i'm sorry " he says against my skin , let go Eva .

I smile weakly at him and he smiles back "am I forgiven ? " he asks looking at my mouth then back to my eyes , I nod . 

His smile grew and the next thing I know he's crushing me into his chest .

Lucas~ 

I had to kick Natalie out of my office in a decent way without attracting people's attention . which took me forever .

I just wanna see Evangeline and explain to her , but I know she won't let me , I need to tell her the reason I said all those things about her . I will give her a little time and then i'll tell her . why does it have to come all at once ? .

I brush my hand through my hair , fuck everything ..this bitch didn't even believe me ..oh no ! Bonnie ! I quickly take my phone to call her "hey Luke " she says sweetly and I let out a relief sigh ..she's okay . 

"Hey darling ..where are you ? " I ask 

'I'm at the hospital ..I think I'll stay until the morning " 

"Yes , better because I'll be late today " I say and I sense her nod . 

"Are you okay though Lucas ? " she asks and I shake my head fully knowing that she won't see me .
