When Hate Turns Into Love~

When Hate Turns Into Love~ (part-23)

"Riva, who did this to you?!" Just as I was running towards her someone just threw something at my head and... I fell on my knees but I didn't faint..
With my eyes half opened and blood running down my forehead, I saw a man coming from the back of Riva. He was wearing an orange scarf with some patterns on his face and that is why I wasn't able to see his face..
He came and untied the cloth from Riva's mouth and eyes.

Before I could say something, five men surrounded me and one of them held my shirt's collar and started beating me. They all had scarfs on their faces..

Riva's POV-
I had a feeling that Aron was somewhere around me, I could feel his presence. All of a sudden, I heard his voice- "Riva, Who did this to you?!" I was 101% sure that it was his voice. I wanted him to know where I was so I tried to shout but was unsuccessful..

I could hear someone running towards me, the steps were loud as there was silence and nothing else.
But suddenly I heard a rod or a metal thing hitting something very harshly..
I had a bad feeling about it. Before I could even realise, there were tears flowing down my cheeks..
Just then someone else came from the back and Untied the cloth on my eyes and mouth but my legs and hands were still tied.

I-I saw him getting beaten up by five men..
"Aron! What are you doing?! Fight them!!" I screamed.
He wasn't able to respond..
