Attraction

Part Thirty Four

"What the fuck are you talking about?" Maria asked again.

Adrian sat silently. He felt his body hurt. But now he regretted what he said more than anything. Just one second of anger was all it took. He knew he fucked up and he shouldn't have said those words about Aila, because he knows they are not true.

He's glad Namjoon knocked some sense back into him. Literally. It would seem pretty boy knew how to fight.

Seokjin was helping Jungkook and Yoongi calm Namjoon down, while Jimin, Hoseok and Taehyung rushed out the house with a first aid kits.

As much as they didn't want to, they gave one to Maria for Adrian.

However when Maria and Antônia tried to look at Adrian's face, he pushed their hands away. He struggled but managed to get up and silently limped away.

Maria and Antônia looked over at Nyala, who had Aila in her arms.

"It's ok, go to him and just....make sure he's ok." Both nodded at Nyala's request and went behind Adrian, helping him walk inside the house.

Aila began to cry again, her nerves having spiked after seeing Namjoon and Adrian fight. The only thing Nyala could do was hold on to her, let her cry on her shoulder as she squeezed Aila tight and whispered encouragement words, telling her everything would be ok.

"Aila," Namjoon began, "Aila, I'm... I'm sorry. I know it doesn't change anything but I'm sorry. I wasn't going to stand here and listen to him disrespect you."

"No Namjoon, thank you for defending Aila. He's hurt but he didn't have to say those words. He's a man and he needs to act like one, not like a prepubescent child, using words to hurt others." Nyala thank Namjoon while she held onto Aila.

All seven stood watching Aila shake in Nyala's arms, her head tucked into the crook of her neck.

They didn't move. They didn't leave. They just stood and listened at how heartbroken Aila was, wishing they could give her the comfort Nyala was offering.

After few minutes went like this, Nyala doing her best to calm Aila down, she took the initiative to talk to Aila.

"Baby, look at me." Nyala began, pulling Aila from her and searching her face. Her heart broke for Aila, but she needed to be strong.

Both couldn't be crying right now.

"Baby... you knew all along?"

Aila nodded her head yes after taking a deep breath.

"But how? Brian tried so hard to delete anything and everything that had to do with them."

Aside from Namjoon, all were shocked at hearing Nyala's confession. Namjoon quickly looked at them and mouthed to wait, to not say anything.

"I ah.... I found these two videos I made before the bonds broke. It was in a folder in my computer, titled for research so I'm sure that's why Brian never looked there. It contained an article and the two videos." Aila's mouth began to quiver as she remembered the videos.

"Oh baby! And you watched them? By yourself?"

"Yeah. I didnt know what it was about. I couldn't remember making anything. So I read the article and then watched the videos. They were recorded before the bonds broke." Aila took a deep breath, feeling better she was finally getting this off her chest.

"Why didn't you tell us!?"

"What was there to tell? The bonds were broken.
We decided to go our separate ways. There was nothing to be done."
