Baby, You're Mine Only

Chapter 12

(Steven's POV & A little introduction on him)
___________________

After a long while and distance, Her car stopped in a remote area, in front of a large gate, and with the low walls, one could easily see the things inside, from the outside, even from the inside of a car.

The scene was filled with dark green and some colourful things. And anyone with a good eye sight could tell that the inside of the boundary was filled with green plants and all fully bloomed flowers, even all of them were appearing dark due to the black night.

My car was parked a little distance away from hers, so I could easily see her black shadow like silhouette. She didn't get out but stayed in the car with her head bent down a little on the steering wheel.

The night was darkening and no other lives were present nearby except our two cars, so I could clearly hear her cries which were escaping her mouth. Then suddenly...

"Ahhhhhh! WHY?!  WHY?  WHY  DO  YOU  HAVE  TO?  COULDN'T  YOU  FIGHT  A  LITTLE  MORE?!  YOU  COULD  HAVE  BEEN  SAVED?! YOU Could have been saved!"

Elina's sudden loud yell mixed with her crying slowly quitened down as only her cries were left.

I was in pain after losing Miss Elizabeth. But hearing her moanful screams, the ache in my heart worsened. I had never seen her cry before and now that I was seeing her breakdown, I wanted to go near her and took her in my arms and say, "Don't worry! I'm here for you!"

But I couldn't do that. Not yet!

So at the moment, the only thing I could do was clenching my hands together tightly, as I felt my nails digging my skin apart and going in.

"Sir?"

I broke out of my self-hurting state, when I heard Jeremy, my driver's voice as I looked towards him through the rearview mirror with a raised brow. Worries were evident in his eyes as he again opened his mouth, "Sir, are you okay? Will you like to go and comfort the Miss in the car?"

The only thing I liked about Jeremy, this driver of mine is that no matter how cold I behave to him, he would always look at me with worry and care. He's a middle aged man and after his young wife's death in his prime age, he didn't remarry and so he always took care of me like his own son, after getting this job.

And clearly if I could say, Miss Elizabeth was the mother figure in my life, Mr. Jeremy is the father figure.

So, later I also started to open up to him and he more or less knew about Elina. And I bet, he had already guessed that the lady in the car is her.

"Sir?"

"Oh yeah! Umm... no. Let's wait!" I had again dazed off, I bet so he again broke my daze.

After sometime, Elina's cries stopped and her car engine again came back to life, as she started to drive and turn back.

Luckily, Jeremy had fast reflexes as he had already hidden our car in some bushes nearby. So as soon as Elina's car turned and left, Jeremy also started the car and followed it.

Then, it stopped in front of another large gate. This time, she pressed the horn twice in front of it, and soon enough the gate was opened by two guards who saluted the car when it entered through the gate.

My lips stressed to form a smirk as I muttered inwardly, "Oh... so this where you stay, huh? Elina Lewis?"

At least, despite the chaos, in my life, I found out where the love of my life stayed. And then, it wasn't that difficult to know about her daily life and her lifestyle.

So, despite the difficulty, I got admitted to the same university with her, in the middle of the year. And there it was... the news that made me the happiest man ever.
