"were they meant to be? The promises you made to me... Did you mean even one of them?", I said to him still not facing him fearing his reaction. Was I hurting him? Perhaps. Was he hurting me? Definitely. 

"I'm just trying to save you...", he mumbled only antagonising her more. She stayed silent for a bit processing what he had said, the silence creating a chilly atmosphere with them both having a lot to say but what could they say. "Saving me from what?!", She finally looked at him and he could see tears welled up in her eyes making his breath hitch. "You do realise doing this is hurting me more right? I don't care what comes my way as long as I'm with you but please don't make decisions for me. You don't want to stay with me, that's fine but please don't give the reasoning that it's good for me..", she continued.

He hadn't expected this reply, he had hoped she would hate him, perhaps slap him but here she was hurting instead and her words had hit deep for him. Why was he making her decisions? But as soon the thoughts came he remembered the dying faces of all those he was close to. He didn't want her to go through the same fate so he would make her hate him even if it meant playing the villain.

But as if reading his thoughts, before he could do anything which he might regret forever, she smiled at him and said, "I will always be there for you, even if you hate me" and she turned around and walked away.

When she was out of sight, she slid down the wall and sat there finally letting her emotions out in the form of a crystal of tears, holding so much pain.
