I'm ain't yours

Chapter 6

*Talia's POV*

My phone beeps just as I'm done changing into a shorts and white t-shirt. My brows furrowed when I read the text from the person I haven't seen or hear from a very long time. I sigh and head downstairs just to see Adam in the kitchen. "Ahm... Adam?" He turns and smile at me so I try so hard to smile back but he notice it. "What's wrong, Talia?" I hug him tight before I was about to destroy this day.

"Hey, your making me nervous. What's wrong, really?" I heaved a deep sigh and look at him in the eye. "I understand if you don't want to come with me but I will still go there. Adam? I think I know someone knows where Nathalie is." I wait for him to say something and I can see from my peripheral vision that his hands tight into fists. "I will go with you." I saw seriousness in his eyes and I nod.

"Give me your keys, I'll drive." He nods and throw me the keys to his black Lambhorgini. I drive so fast that I can hear Adam curse in his breath. If this is not a serious time, I would have laugh.

I drove slowly and stop on an old apartment. I look at him and we both sigh. I nod and got out of the car. When he get near me, he holds my hand tighly and I gently squeeze it and give him a reassuring smile.

Inside was horrible. The paint in the wall was cracked and I almost puke because of smell of pee. Adam squeeze my hand and together we climb the metal stairs that I'm afraid to give up.

I stop in the end of the hallway in the right. I look at Adam like asking him he was ready and he nods. I heaved a deep breath and knock on the door. We heard some steps hurrying inside and a moment later a man with messy black hair slip in the door. When he saw me, he give me a yucky smile.

I can feel anger in my whole system and I let go of Adam. Pushing the door open and punch Taylor's face. "Tell me what you know?!" I yell at him and grab him in the collar of his shirt and he's looking at me with full of fear. I feel Adam's hand in my shoulders and I calm down. He recover from the shock I guess when he saw me punch the guy.

"You better spill what you know, Taylor or I will spill all your internals right now." I warn him but then Adam's hand squeeze mine. Damn! I can't control my anger. He get away from me and

sat in his dirty couch. Now that I calm down, I can clearly see that his apartment is a mess. "Give m-me.. the.. m-money f-f-first." He stammer because I keep on giving him stares with daggers.

I slip my free hand into my back pocket and throw him a cheque that contains 1 million dollars.

"Spill." I said sternly like an order. "Nathalie shows up in my apartment a few days before the wedding. She said that she can't do it because she's afraid of being tied, so he ask for my help.

He asked me to help her sell the engagement ring to have an additional money to get away. In the day before the wedding, I accompany her in the airport wearing a disguise. You can't find her anymore because she keeps on running away and she said she's not going to stay in one country until she was far away from here. Even if it means she would went into the other side of world where no one would ever know her."

I sigh in frustration. "You better keep your mouth shut about this, Taylor. You know what I can do, what WE can do." He nods nervously and we turn our back, getting out of this horrible place. I heaved a deep sigh and inhale the fresh air outside. "I don't understand..." My gaze turn to Adam that standing beside me. Head down and his face is full of confusion. I look at him with sympathy and heartache.

"I'm sorry, Adam. I never should have told you about this, you should have never felt as horrible as the smell inside." To my surprise, he chuckles and then smile at me with understanding. "I know.

I'm the one insisted to come." I smile and squeeze his hand that I didn't realize intertwined earlier when we got out together. "Let's go?" He nods and I quickly drove our self back at the mansion.

We sat in the couch tiredly and sigh in unison.

"If she didn't want to tied with me... then why... why did she said yes in the first place?" He's more like talking to himself than talking to me. He look at me with so much confusion in his grayish eyes. I sigh in frustration as I can't answer him either. "I don't know what's inside of my twins mind, Adam. But... from what I know of my sister, I believe she's confuse and in times like that she... she's always running away." I sigh and rub my throbbing temple. I'm stressed with that sister of mine.

"Who is that guy, by the way? I've got really shock when you punch him." He asked and I chuckles. "It's Taylor and my ex-friend. He's a journalist actually that's why I paid him big, bigger than he asked. He's Naths fling though, I don't know what he saw with Taylor. I only saw him as an idiot little whiney bastard." He's eyes widen and I laugh. "Sorry. My mouth can't stop when I'm angry." I sigh and lean my head on the couch armrest.

"Ugh! my stomach wants to eat." I said and walk my way to the kitchen. It's past lunch already and my tummy wants something right now. I saw Mrs. Austin in the kitchen and preparing something delicious in a plate. "I figured out you'll be starving so I cook some lunch already." I squeel in happiness and hug the elderly woman in happiness. "You're the best Mrs. Austin!" I settle down in the dinning waiting for Mrs. Austin. Just as Mrs. Austin arrives with the food, Adam sat beside me.

"You seem so happy." I laugh. Damn it! I'm so moody when I'm hungry and I think Adam notice it. "I get it. I get it." I look at him with daggers and he quickly raised his hands in surrender but chuckling.

I happily dig in my food not noticing Adam's surprise? or I don't know what's his reaction called, it's mix up.
