All Those Lies

After making me wait for 45 minutes an agent guided me to a room and left. I tried to open the door but it was locked. Fuck. The room had no window only a ventilator at top of the right wall, a table which had two chairs on the opposite side and a glass of water. I sit in one of the chair and keep waiting. I know he is making me wait purposefully but he should know with whom he is messing with so I took the glass of water and smiled. I heard a noise from behind and here he comes with all glory. 

"Oh my my! Here you are Reyzel. I was dying to see your face" I said batting my eyelashes dramatically. 

"Outsiders like you are not allowed to call me by my first name Miss Wheeler"

 Outsider? Oh yeah that's what's I am. An outsider in his life. 

"I'm extremely sorry, Officer Kingston. I swear that was a slip of tongue."

 He is heading towards the chair and I can't stop myself from laughing. However he was cautious to look at the chair before sitting. When he saw the water dripping from the chair I fake,

 "Oh Officer, I was so eagerly waiting for you that I mistakenly drop the glass. It was completely unintentional." I emphasized on the word 'completely'.

 "Then how come the glass didn't break?" Oh shit! Umm

 "You can say that that's my Superpower" I wink.

"Stand up" He shouts. 

"Oh please officer don't be mad at me. As I said it was completely unintentional"

He slams the table.

 "I said stand up" So I did. 

 "Sit there" He points at the wet chair. He is kidding, right?

 "I'll count up to 3.If you don't sit within that then I'll charge you for harassing the SSA. Remember the one who holds the power here is me not you" 

Damn. Wait what's SSA. "Senior Supervisor Agent. " He says. 

"I didn't ask you. Did I?" I reply trying to win the battle that I'm already losing.

 "One" "Two" Fucking bustard. "Thr.. "

Having no come back I sit in that chair. I can feel my ass drenching. I guess it is called tasting your own medicine. Well played Officer. 

"How long you know Mr. Parker? " He asked.

 "Eight months" I replied keeping a straight face

"How long you have been dating him?" I look in his eyes . They are holding an expression that I can't understand but I reply

 "I broke up with him a month ago. That makes the answer seven months. "

"On a scale of 1 to 10 how sad you are? "

Zero. No maybe one. "Fiv... No six. Six"

"Why? Didn't he love you enough? Or you were with him for the Sugar? What do they call? Sugar Daddy?"

Did he, did he just call me a gold digger? Control Eve Control. He is trying to provoke you. 

"Nope" I replied as sweetly I can." I didn't even know his father was that rich. And for your kind information I am a graphic designer. I can earn enough for me sitting at home." I smiled again. He must hate my smile.

 "Then was he another quest of yours? Or lemme guess, Sex? Don't tell me you loved him. In your eyes I can see everything else but grief for his death. Why were you with him, Miss Wheeler? Why? "This time he is a little loud. He is yelling at me. 

"My sex life is none of your business. You are an Agent not a gynecologist "

"Then answer my question. Why were you with him when you barely knew him? I can come to two conclusion. 1.You had an ulterior motive or  2. You were to desperate to have someone in your bed ,in your life." He whispers the last words.

 "Which one Miss Wheeler? "

"None. Why the hell you keep repeating the same thing? I didn't kill him and that's what should fucking matter"

 He gets up from his sit and proceeds towards my direction. He is now too close. I can smell his cologne. This is too much to handle. 

"You have a dirty mouth Miss Wheeler. Mind controlling that? "

"I talk dirty with dirty people like you" I answer back. 

"You know me for a day and you are already calling me dirty, Miss Wheeler? "

Oh now he will pretend he doesn't know me. Okay okay "My eyes never fail to know what lies beneath a person."

He closes the gap between us and level himself so that his eyes meet mine. Our lips are an inch apart and I can feel his breath. 

"And that's why you always target the innocents? "

'He wasn't a innocent. He was a goddamn cheater" 

"Where is the pen drive? " 

Shit. "I couldn't find it. "

"You couldn't find the pen drive? What do you think of me, an idiot? "

I try to explain him "Look Rey. It may sound weird buy the pendrive was at my home. I had kept it in a drawer. But yesterday I couldn't find it. I don't know how it disappeared but trust me I haven't. "

"Trust you? Nice joke. First you show no grievance over the death of your Ex and now you say you lost that pen drive on basis of what you called him a cheater? Huh? And don't fucking call me by that name."

I look at the man in front of me. It's not the Rey I knew. It's the first time in my life I heard him curse. I lost my Rey. I lost him that day. I don't know why I am feeling bad. I can't call him Rey? I hold back my tears. I had promised myself I wouldn't cry anymore. Not for him at least. He steps away.

 "Get out and don't even dare to leave this city. You'll be under our constant monitor" I walk towards the door. 

"Stop" I turn back at his direction. He is removing his jacket then he wraps it around my waist and tie it. Taking responsible for his action.

 "Don't worry. I'll return it"

"Burn it but don't return. "
