Can't let you go

"Oo you think I will be scared.Scared of losing such a incompetent worker.You quiting ain't my loss.So give the 5millions and leave wherever you want"
"5millions....whyy." Pete voice was void of no emotion.It was like a broken doll speaking.I couldn't see the pain formed in his eyes.He was truly hurt and I was responsible for it.this was what I wanted to hurt him the way he hurted me.But I am not satisfied.
Masking my emotions I uttered "Company policy, employees who leave before the bond period needs to pay 5 millions.Nothing personal."

"I will pay." Pete muttered those and left. And seeing him all lost stirred unknown emotions.If at all Pete never betrayed me,If at all he was the same I first met.I guess we could have been different.The past haunted me.The memories of Pete laying on some else bed flooded my brain.
   It took a lot in me not to trust the situation,maybe Pete was innocent,maybe he was trapped by someone.I wanted to confront and ask him directly. The next day when I went to meet Pete,he was gone,leaving a note reading "I don't love you Vegas.I never did.Though it was fun the while it lasted but now I am bored.I found someone more rich and handsome than u.I am leaving and I don't want you to tag along like some lovesick puppy,move on."

My whole world stopped when I read that note.I tried calling Pete but he blocked me.I searched all the places he might have been but in vain.It took me 3 months to finally realize that Pete actually left me.He left me for someone.Some rich man he said.I would fucking kill that shit who stole my pete.
And finally after all the turmoil I cried.I weeped like a baby.I remember going to my mother,laying on her lap and crying.I Wept for hours,until sleep replaced my tears.

My sunshine was all fake.I couldn't distinguish whether I was dreaming all along.My mental and physical health was shit.

It took a lot in me to be what I am now.Feelings those are dead.All I want now is money.Money so that no one ever leaves me.And I guess money is power.As I gained money and fame.People started noticing me.Boys and girls trying hard to get a piece of me.I enjoyed,May be because I wanted pete to know I am more rich than that jerk he left.
Revenge is all I wanted.I wanted Pete to beg for forgiveness to realise what actually he lost.To make him all pathetic and weak.And I am closer to my goal but it feels like I am dying inside.

Tears gathered my eyes.I was trying hard to maintain image of being a cold emotionless jerk.And I don't think I can last long if I see pete broken.

My thoughts were broken when Taiwan laid his hand on my shoulder.And then I knew I fucked.I called Taiwan my boyfriend and I am sure he won't leave me until I answer him.

Taiwan raised his eyebrow.Wanting to know why I behaved the way I behaved.Sighingly I replied "Leave it Taiwan.I am not telling you shit.Leave me alone."

5millions,I am getting 5millions and shoving them to his face.I don't care if I am getting well paid or whatever benefits I am getting.I want self respect.And I know Vegas won't give me that.

My vegas who used to call me sunshine is now glaring me as if I am some shit.
My heart is paining.I don't want this.I deserve better.
With that I signed my check and headed to Vegas office.

"May I come in Sir."
"I am busy.Wait till I call."

5minutes 10minutes 20 minutes 45 minutes and still not a word from that asshole.Is he playing with me.Enough is enough.I am not letting him make me weak.I entered the office.Vegas looked at me glaring and with a cold harsh voice said "I clearly said I am busy. don't you understand it.Leave now"
Not minding his words I placed the letter.
"HERE it is, my resignation letter and that 5millions.I have nothing to do with you or your sick personality."

"You aren't going anywhere.I am not accepting it."

What the hell does he want me."what the fuck vegas.u told the policy I followed now what.do you want my life."

Vegas smirked "That's a good trade.I might accept if you give your life to me pete.But if not then you are not going anywhere"

"And why it is."I asked frustrated

"The thing is,your role in my company haven't yeiled any profit so I am letting go of someone who haven't contributed shit.But to think again.This is your habit.Leaving as soon you get bored.As soon you get what you want you leave.Leave the way you left 7 yrs before."

"What did you say.What gave you the right to point fingers on me when you are the one at fault.Arent you tired of playing the victimcard.Get a life Vegas.You and I both know whatever happened between us and wherever we are now is all because of you.You wanted me to leave and I left so what do to want.And even now,I am leaving because you are making me.So stop blaming me and check yourself." I stormed out ranting all my frustrations.
