Kiara

Chapter 6

Jordan woke up with a throbbing type of headache. Maybe it was the effect of yesterday night. He was lying on the floor. 

"Kia", he called out in a still sleepy tone.

There was no answer. 

He slowly got up and went into the kitchen to get himself a glass of water. As he was going, he saw the wedding ring of Kiara on the table. Suddenly he remember everything. 

"Shit!", he swear. "Kiara saw me and Naomie together".

He remember confessing his love for Naomie. He went inside their bedroom and found all the things of Kiara missing. As he open his drawer, he found some papers and a card.

'Happy birthday my lovely husband. I feel so blessed everyday knowing that you are in my life. Your love is the most precious gift that you have given me. Nothing could compare that but still on your birthday i have chosen a very small gift for you. I love you a lot'.  It was written on the card and enclosed with the card was the contract papers.

Jordan could feel tears stinging his eyes. He wanted to apologize to Kiara. He tried to call her on her phone but she was not picking up. He send her a message begging her to reply his call. Moments later he received a message from her.

'Don't look for me. Wish you all the happiness with Naomie'.

His heart started beating rapidly, his eyes were moist and he felt a sudden weakness. Kiara had left him. He try to phone her but this time her mobile was switch off. 

It was one of the hardest decision to make but Kiara knew that she had to do so. It's no use living in a dreamland that one day everything will be ok between them. She decided to leave Jordan the moment he confessed that he love Naomie. No woman could bear that and Kiara didn't want to lead a life of lies. Jordan made his choice. He no longer loves her so no use been in his life.

Kiara wanted to cry but she knew that tears would make her weak. She tried to hold it back. She will do as if she never met Jordan and had never love him. But she still love him and knew that it would be difficult to live without him. So she took the decision to end her life.

She phoned her father, borrowing a mobile from someone as she already threw her own one.  She wanted to tell her father that she love him before she commit suicide. She heard her dad voice and realized that she missed him a lot. Suddenly she wanted to hang the phone. She no longer had the courage to speak.

"Will anyone please speak?", her dad said irritably.

"Da..",she could no longer manage to speak more. 

"Kiara", her father said in a severe tone. "What do you want now?".

"I just wanted to tell you that i love you a lot...", she was fighting back her tears and her voice began to tremble. "Please forgive me if possible..."

Mr Robert knew that something was wrong with his daughter. He surely wouldn't forgive her for marrying that jerk but today her voice seem so distressed. This was not the day to turn away from her.

"Where are you?", he demanded.

"That's no.. no .. longer important... dad", she was trembling.

"Where the hell are you Kiara?", her dad said in a serious tone.

"I don't know."

"Kiara", her dad said in a worried tone. Then he said in a more serious tone."Address Kiara?"

Kiara ended up giving her father the address.

"Stay there itself. I will there in a few minutes", her father had ordered her.

She return the mobile phone and murmured a thanks. She walk a little more and was soon on a bridge. She will give her life now and will forever be free from this heart pain. As she walk a little further, she began to see everything black. She fell down and she remember nothing more.

Jordan was still in shock and refuse to believe that Kiara left him. When he check his mobile there was at least ten miss call and several messages from Naomie. She wanted to discontinue this relationship as it might affect his marriage. Jordan phoned Naomie and told him about Kiara leaving the house. She expressed her sympathy and offer to drop by his place to console him.

Kiara open her eyes slowly and found herself on bed. Maybe she was already dead. But as she begin to regain her senses, she realized that it was her very own bedroom. She was in her dad's house. She found her father beside her, looking at her with worried eyes.

"How you feeling?", he asked casually.

Kiara nodded her head in an attempt to tell him that she was feeling better. Her dad was expecting answers from her but she didn't want to tell him about Jordan.

"I was not born yesterday, Kiara", her dad said. "That guy was not worthy of you. He was just using you and i could see that. I simply didn't want you to destroy your life because of him and that's why i rejected him".

Kiara show no reaction and bow down her head with guilt.

"Rest for now and i will see what to do with that jerk".

"I am dead for him now", Kiara said. " If you love me, just forget about him".

Her father didn't insist. Letting go of the past is the best option now. However, he knew that it will not be so easy for his daughter. He saw the way she loved Jordan and knew deep within that it will take her a bit of time to stabilize her life. Whatever her decision, he will support her fully.

Naomie was feeling really sad for Jordan and that's why she bought one packet of drugs for him to forget his sorrow. He would feel relieved with that. Jordan was feeling very sad and it took a while before she could convince him to take the drugs. She was happy that he accepted.
