" Tell me right now! That would be your last words , speak wisely."
" Aaron, what are you doing?!"
" Nina, stay away."
" Speak! Who told you?! Who gave you orders?!"
He started punching his face.
" I asked you something!"
" Melisa "
" That name again. I knew it."
He started destroying him.
" Aaron?!"
" Did he touch you?"
He looked at me desperately for an answer.
" Aaron --"
" Did he touch you? Nina" he demanded an answer.
I looked down, nodding a yes.
That's when I heard bones cracking.
" Aaron!"
He broke his hand.
" Aaron, enough --"
" No--"
I saw the police coming out of there cars towards us.
He started banging his head on the car.
" Aaron, stop! "
The police tried to get Aaron off that man.
" We will take it from here Mr. Wesley." The officer said.
" Aaron, please stop, come here."
He looked at me, his gazed softened.
He paused and came back to me.
" Are you okay? Nina? Did he do anything to you?"
" No, no, I am fine okay? "
He wiped my tears and hugged me again.
" I was so scared."
" You are safe now okay? I won't let you go alone again."
" I thought, -- I was never going to see you or my family again, I was that scared, he was speeding a lot.--"
" Nina, it's over, I am here now right? I will protect you. You are safe."
I nodded.
" Let's go back home okay?"
" The police --?"
" I called them here, We can go home now."
He thanked the officer and we went to his car.
" Your car has this big dent." That man's car did crash but it didn't harm his car that much.
" I don't care, sit."

" You should call your parents, here "
He gave me his phone.
" Where are they?"
" At the court probably."
" Court! Aaron, your hearing?! How are you here?!"
" I left "
" Aaron-- I -- "
" I had to come to get you."
Hearing this made me feel so bad.
I started crying.
" Aaron, I am so sorry , Aaron -- "
He immediately stopped aside.
" Hey baby, listen, it's okay , listen you are important to me . I will always come to get you."
" I spoiled everything -- I am sorry, I should have checked the cab, I am sorry."
" Nina, I never said it's your fault. It's all because of Melisa, she did this, not you. She knew that If you won't be there in the court, I would do something rash which will make her win."
" She did this to get you out of there and this is exactly what happened! I should have been more careful --"
" Nina, darling, you are not listening to me, that man took her name , she is going to get caught in his. Me leaving isn't going to affect this. Someone important in my life is in danger, why wouldn't I go ? "
I looked at him with guilt.
" Remove this thought out of your mind okay?"
I nodded.
" Good girl "

" Did you bite him?" He chuckled.
" You saw that?" I smiled a little.
" Yeah "
" Wow."
" Wow?"
" That's some cool shit"
He laughed trying to make my mood lighter.
" What happened exactly? I saw cuts, he smelled like alcohol."
" Yeah, he tried to force me into drinking it."
" What ? You didn't drink it right?"
" No, I didn't, I broke it on his head , that's why he was smelling like alcohol."
" That's my girl."
He smiled proudly.
He went into deeper thinking.
" What happened? Aaron?"
" Nothing "
" I don't understand why did he want me to drink?"
" I know "
" Why?"
" He wanted to make the scene look like drink and drive case."
" Drink and drive?"
" Yeah, he would ask you to drink , and then get the car at full speed, then he himself would get out of it. You would then try to stop the car, which will lead into an accident. You are arrested for drink and drive."
" Oh my God."
" Nothing can happen to you when I am alive."
" I love you Aaron."
" I love you too."

I called my parents to tell them that I was okay. They asked me to come back home.
He was driving normally, but after sometime he started driving a little bit faster.
" Aaron slow down please "
He looked at my anxious face.
" Okay , okay, I am sorry."
" No, I just-- a little --"
" I am sorry, we will go slow okay?"
He put his one hand in mine and the other on the steering wheel.
" Nina?"
" Yeah?"
He stopped the car aside.
" No why did you stop? Mom and dad must be worried."
" Did he inappropriately touch you?"
" No, no-"
" Then? What else? Are you well? Is driving making you uncomfortable?"
" No, I am fine. "
" Do you want to go walking?"
" Walking? So far." I smiled.
" Yeah, I can do that for you."
" You can , but I can't, I would get tried half way there."
" Then I would carry you on my back."
" Oh really?"
" Of course."
" Aaron, I am absolutely fine okay? I feel a little anxious, but it's okay. Holding your hand makes it all go away."
" Do you want to get out of the car?"
" No, let's just go home, I want to see my parents."
" Sure. I will drive slow."
" Thank you."

He got me home. I hugged my parents on the doorstep.
" Mom , dad."
" Nina, how are you my dear?"
" Nina, are you okay? Everything is alright?"
" Mom, dad , I am fine , everything is okay."
" We were so worried about you! Nina"
They were so overwhelmed.
" Aaron, we couldn't thank you enough, thank you for getting her safe."
" No, it was because of me. Melisa did all this. I should have been more careful."
" No, Aaron. You saved me today."
" You left the court for our daughter, Aaron, we are grateful to you."
" Mom, don't, it's my duty."
" Come in please. Nina tell me everything that happened."

I told everything each and every to them.
" You met Andrew?" Aaron asked me.
" Yeah -- he stopped my way."
" I have to do something about this guy." Aaron said while thinking.
" Aaron."
" Aaron? Look at me."
" Yeah?"
" You are not doing anything okay?"
" Who said I was doing something?"
" Your face did. Aaron, Don't do anything! You heard me?"
He hesitated talking.
" Dad , please tell him, you don't know, he can do anything."
" I won't do anything worse."
" Worse? Means you are going to do something."
" No, I am not "
" Aaron, you promise?"
" I should get going, I have some work."
" Aaron!"
" Nina, let him go home. He should rest."
" Go straight home okay?"
" Yes ma'am, take care okay?"
" Yes "
He left and I rested in my room. I was very worried about him and his case. Everything should be fine.

I know she warned me not to. But well there are some things I don't want to listen. He can't come in between us. Not after hurting her badly.
I went straight to his home. Don't ask me how I got his address, I have my sources. I pressed his doorbell. He opened the door after ringing it twice. He was wearing his headphones in his hoodie playing on his phone. He didn't even bother to look up.
" Yes?"
" I suppose you didn't recognise me."
He looked up at me, stunned.
" You?! What are you doing here?"
" I am here to talk."
" Who gave you my address? Wait, she told you about today, didn't she? She just can't keep her mouth shut--"
" I am here to talk."
I kept my hand forcefully on his shoulder.
" It's just a warning , I don't want you to complain later that I didn't warn you. I could have been worse but she says no. So I listen. But if you speak to her again or even if you go anywhere near her, I will destroy you."
" You can't tell me what to do."
" I can, she is mine. It's up to you to listen to me or not. But I will destroy you. I won't let you hurt her anymore."
" You will hurt her not me."
I looked him in the eye to show him that I was not joking.
" You heard me? I can and I will end you. It would be better if you delete her number. She doesn't want to see you ever again. Don't block her way ever again, she might fall for your crying and wailing but I won't. I am not kind, especially not to you."
" Don't threaten me!"
" I am not, it's just giving safety measures to you. "
I left straight home from here. Without looking back, without regretting my words.
