《THE COUNT》

epilogue

The new year had started.
The stars were brighter than before.
The war was still going on.
The hatred of Andrey’s seemed to have no end.
The love for Andrey and Zayn were still in Justin’s heart.
The love and hate never seemed to stop.

Jason sat in his office,
things were different now.
He knew he was different ever since his confession.
Was it even a confession?
Jason didn’t know,
but he thought it was.

London had been bombed.
Exactly after Jason left the Bieber’s mansion.
He had passed right by the explosion.
Jason was right,
it was a new life.
The war had entered the city of London.

There was a great comet.
Jason was studying it carefully,
but could not fully focus.
Jason couldn’t decide if it was Justin or the bomb.
Maybe both, Jason had a decision to make.
Everything had changed for him.

Countess Selena McCann,
he had no love for her, but cared deeply for her.
Andrey, his old friend.
He no longer saw as a friend, but just as an acquaintance.
Justin, a new interest.
Jason loved him, but could not love openly.

The office with books all around,
seemed like it had no more meaning.
The bottles of wine and vodka had disappeared.
Jason had done what surprised him,
he threw them away.
He hid them away from himself,
he let his unwanted wife have them.

Jason’s mind had been enlightened without the alcohol.
He had missed so much while drunk.
He had made so many mistakes.
Jason vowed to never touch alcohol again.
He loved his life without it,
even if Selena was still stuck with him.

Selena was changing as well.
It wasn’t her personality.
Selena would never change that aspect of her life.
Still, Jason saw something else in her.
He didn’t know what would happen,
but it would be something drastic.
All he knew was that he was never going to be alone with his wife.

Jason never wanted to see Zayn again.
He had gotten a letter from Zayn in the mail.
He knew it wasn’t Zayn’s words.
Zayn couldn’t write with such vocabulary.
Jason never even read the full thing.
The player wanted Jason to beg for him to come back to London,
He refused without writing a letter back.
Instead, he took the letter and tore it to shreds.

Andrey was still angry,
he was still furious.
The hatred in his heart kept growing.
The love for Justin was completely gone,
there was nothing left for him.

Justin was trying his best to move on.
His reputation was barely saved by Jason.
While outside, his was viewed as a hussy.
Justin was not.
There was never an official announcement of his engagement.
He did not know Zayn was married.
The family and Jason defended Justin well.

The letters from Zayn had stopped.
It wasn’t just one time that he wrote the Jason.
There were multiple times,
Jason wondered if the money he gave him was gone.
He never read the letters,
he always burned or tore them.

Jason felt a presence in his office.
He looked above his book,
there in the doorway was Selena.
He looked down back at his book.
Selena knew Jason no longer tolerated her.

From Jason’s quick glance,
he noticed a packet in Selena’s hands.
He did not anything though,
he refused to speak to her.
Selena had grown tired of it and never got used to it.
Jason had not said a single word to her in months.

Selena laid down the packet on his desk.
Jason grabbed it,
he looked at the name on it.
Zayn Kuragin.
He scoffed and threw it in the bin.

Selena quickly grabbed it out of the bin.
“Jason, it’s from Zayn.
This message is urgent.” She spoke, trying to convince him.
Jason didn’t reply, but kept on his studying.
“Zayn has gone to war!” Selena shouted,
she still didn’t get a reply.
