Part Twenty-Five

Seriously, what is wrong with him? Unsettled with oceans of questions, her body almost collapses, panting. She's catching her breath, ungoverned. Why does he play her emotions? This sh** is the worst! She knew she deserves better that's why she refused to let her guard loosened.

As she looped in the middle of self-chaos, the distinct noise ruled the background adding to the anxiety she felt since then.

*Ring

Her phone ended her delusion bringing her back to the reality of the cruel world. She eyed the caller, unexpressive. Sasuke's name is glued yet she isn't in the mood to talk to anyone. That's right, she's mad, not for Naruto but more to herself.

She despised how her heart responds every time she sees him. She hates her own emotion because she's aware that at the end of every turmoil, she always fits the pitiful category.

She remains calm, smiled as to how she usually deals with everything, and finally answered the call to end this mess soonest. "Sasuke-san..."

[I'm outside the building.]

Damn! As always, he stays there, waiting for her to approach his direction so he can take her home.

How reassuring.

"Alright, wait for me there..."

"Wait! Where you going?" Ask Ayu, confused for sure.

"I forgot something. I need to go to the office..."

"Ne? Just ignore it for a while! Let's enjoy the moment here!"

"Thank you, but I need to go."

"Oh, man! Come on!"

"See you tomorrow, Ayu-san..."

In the parking space of the club X

Every step she took felt like a heavy movement. She's freaking tired yet the frustration failed to shut her system completely. It's like, it's hidden somewhere, grinding her mind so she can be depressed once more.

What the hell is wrong with life though?

She's been with so many bullsh**ts already! Why does it need to bury her more?!

Damn!

"Hinata!"

The sound of his voice sent shivers all over her frame yet she chooses to ignore such emotion because she's scared to be left alone—to be miserable.

Distressed, she doubled her steps so he won't be able to reach her trail, or at least.

"Hinata! I am talking to you!" He screamed with all his strength, pulling her hand so she won't have the chance to walk away from his grip. "What's your problem?"

"What's my problem?" She stared at him, challenging his frosty orbs as if he can see her soul. F***! She hates it so much!

"Why don't you ask yourself!"

"Stop moving! Stop walking out!"

"Let go of my hand."

"Let you go?" He exclaimed, laughing yet it sounded sarcastic. Yes, he's hurting as a man and as her lover. Perhaps, he's crazy thinking that way. "Hinata, you always want to leave! You choose to hurt me. You always!"

"What is wrong with you? Let me go!" She protests since Naruto grips her hands tightly.

"Then what? You'll go far away just as how you left me before? Huh? Is that what you want? Is that what you want?!"

His voice echoed everywhere as the hatred filled his scream.

"Please, I'm tired. I am genuinely tired to argue with you..."

"That f****** time, I am vulnerable and my life is a f****** mess! I'm not even sure if I was depressed! All I know is you! As long as I have you by my side, as long as I have you! I can definitely grip all my sh*** together! But what did you do? You chose to leave!"

"Have you asked yourself why? Naruto? Have you asked your freaking self?!"

"You should have understood! Of all the people, you should be the one to understand me more! Hinata! I'm f****** hurt! You broke my heart million times and I hate you for that..."

She smirks, wiping her warm tears too. "Hate me? Then go on...I think that's better..." She stated and just like that, she began to advance her feet ahead, free from his firm grip.

The swish of wind is gloomy, adding to the dull lights which serve as the only luster of the dusky place.

Her tears drip and it has no intention to end at all. "Hate you? Yes, I trained myself to hate you! I f****** trained to!" He exclaimed while embracing the woman from behind. Yes, he chases her and if he'll do it again, he won't hesitate, never, this time. "But I f******* failed, Hinata! I can't!"

"..."

Silence

"I hate myself more. I hate what I did to you! Hinata, I hate the Naruto who lets you go..." He whispered, crying, and the tears almost occupied her pale shoulder. "Not even once did I forget you. How can I? Hinata...You're the only woman I love. I tried finding you to the rest but I can't... I f****** can't... It's only you, Hina... It's only you who can hurt me as deep as this. It's only you..."

Silence

"And it makes sense now... I'm still the same. I am still madly in love with you... Hina, I love you. I f****** love you and I'm sorry...This time, I won't let you go."
