Charisma

Chapter 35

I was speechless I couldn't find a single word to say
I was finally free?
" as much as I want you to stay
You can't "
He said looking everywhere but not my eyes

Adam

After thinking about this a lot , I finally decided that I can't put charisma's life in danger , just because I wanted her beside me.
Alexander was a dangerous man
He was watching my every move while I've never seen his face

I lived with my aunt for a couple of years until I was 18 it was then when she was diagnosed with heart cancer
She died after 4 months leaving me nothing but a message telling me everything about my mother and father and how they were killed

I couldn't find a proper job since I never went to college , I know there's a lot you can do without a college degree
but I ended up working with illegal stuff for a living such as selling and buying guns and drugs

One day at 4am in the morning I was up drinking when I got a call
- hello?whos this?- I said
- Your nightmare, Alexander - he said back
And it was true
Every friend that I got a little close to he would get rid of that's why me and nick rarely talk so he couldn't kin about us
But it was then that I realized that I should never love or get attached to anybody
I wasn't ready to lose someone else
I just focused on finding him
And kill him
I tried for like 2 years with ridiculously amount of researches
I couldn't even find in what country he's staying

as much as I want you to stay
You can't
It was the hardest thing for me to say , I would have never imagined myself saying those words

But I couldn't put her life in danger I know he'll find her and kill her if he ever finds out that I'm in love with her

Alexander , I won't let him hurt another person I love

I know I'm letting her go , but I'll always be watching her , protecting her.
I guess that's better for both of us

I knocked on her door
" Charisma" I said
" are you ready?" I asked

" yeah , I'll be down in 5" she said through the door and I could the excitement in her voice  , I mean of course she surely misses her family a lot

Charisma

I still can't believe I am going back home
I've missed Rose , and I've missed my mother a lot
But there's something I can't understand why did Adam let me go all suddenly ,
I applied some mascara on my eyelashes
I then placed everything in its place
I wasn't packing anything
These aren't my clothes nor my makeup
I took one last look at the mirror
Then headed downstairs

" Charisma , I made breakfast we should eat before we go , we've got a long drive ahead of us" he said

We silently , not sharing a single word ; i looked up at him, I wanted to ask him so bad why did he change his mind all suddenly , but I didn't , I put my head down again , finishing my pancake

*****
The drive was silent as well
And I've just realized that the drive is super long

Finally , I could recognize the familiar houses , all still the same

Adam stopped the car but not In Front my house I looked at him
"I can't park in front of your house , the polices are watching your home 24/7" he said explaining

Adam

" it's fine " she said smiling weakly
Her hand reached for the handle
Thats when I spoke
" charisma" I said making her look at me
" what we spoke before.." I said looking down
" don't worry Adam everything you told will be kept as secret , I want you to make sure that no one will ever know about what happened to your parents , promise" she said smiling at me

" I am gonna miss you " I said fixing my eyes on hers
" I-I um I will miss you too " she said as she blushed
*****
Charisma

When I got into the house , everyone went crazy and they started kissing me and hugging me
And everything seemed so perfect , but I don't know why I feel a weird thing inside of me
I shook that off and excused myself , to go to bed
I miss my bed
I didn't take too long to welcome the darkness

I see him approaching to me with a gun in his hands
"I see that you're getting a long you two"he said I looked behind me to see Adam
My heart started to race so fast
"No! Don't kill him"
"I guess I have to , he knows our little secret plus he's trying to get you away from me"
He said smirking
After that he pulled the trigger
"Noo!!!! " Adam was laying on the floor blood running from his stomach
"I am sorry Charisma I couldn't save you "Adam whispered
"No!Adam wake up please!"
I felt someone grabbing me by my upper arm
"Come Charisma lets go"
the disgusting man said
"No!leave me alone!"
"Stop fighting you bitch!"
"Stop! No!"

I woke up all sweaty , then I started crying I wasn't sure if the dream was the only reason

Maybe I really do miss him
