My head was spinning as I grabbed my red winter coat and told the guys that I had to run to my office and I would be right back.

I hurried into the elevator and turned around to see myself in the mirror. My eyes were sparkling with tears and my lipstick was ruined by my sad smile. This wasn't supposed to happen. Ever.

I picked up my phone to dial Zayn's driver, Casper. He told us that he would be driving around the neighborhood, ready if we wanted to go out. First I said that it wouldn't be necessary but I guess he was right. The way down seemed forever and all I wanted was to get out of there.

Finally I got to step out of the grey cold building. The fresh air didn't affect me at all. I couldn't feel my fingers or the cold breeze that played with my hair as I ran to the car that was waiting for me.

" My office, please" I said as I stepped in. Casper nodded his head and smiled as he drove off. My head was filled with millions of question and I got a head ace when I knew that I couldn't answer one of them. How was I supposed to go through this now? The only thing that my true family member left me was now being taken away from me if I wouldn't take a responsible choice.

But that was the problem. I didn't want to take the responsible choice. But did he? What was he thinking? Didn't he want to be with me? Was all of this a lie? A big fat lie?

I didn't notice how long the car ride was. I just stared out of the window, not caring how the city lights filled my eyes and made them burn a little. I just sat there, thinking, worrying, trying to keep my mind together.

" We are here" Casper looked at me through the little mirror. His face changed when he looked at me.

" Are you alright Mrs.Richi?" He asked worried.

" Thank you" Was all I could say as I opened the door and got out. I had no words for anyone at the moment.

The security guards that stood in the lobby didn't even bother looking at me as I hurried inside to get to my office. I took the elevator and played with my fingers because of stress. Did my aunt ever get in any trouble this big?

Like usual my question didn't get answered and I hurried into my office where I threw my coat on the floor and sat down in my white chair. I turned around to look out the big window. The city was wide awake and the river looked darker than ever. Somehow I felt like I could relate.

I turned around again and reached out for one of the drawers in my desk. In the corner of the drawer was a little heart shaped box which was the only thing my mother gave me before I left her. I picked it up and opened it to see a little key that had access to another drawer. I put the box down and stuck the key in the keyhole.

My heart took a skip as I saw what I was looking for. I picked up a black mask. My fingers played with the silk before I turned it around to see what stood inside.

"Don't look for me, it's better if we keep our distance"

I felt the tears build up in the corner of my eyes before I threw it away. Why didn't we keep distance? Why would he leave his mask with me, saying this when he found me and didn't want to let me go?

Why was I always crying because of him?

Did he know how little time we had?

Was he okay with this all?

The distance between us had never been so much and it was only getting worse with every minuet.
