PRESENT

No warmth. No one breathing beside me. I didn't need to open my fucking eyes to know that Mary is not here.

But the question is: Has she gone for some tests or did she left?

I opened my eyes and scanned the room. The bed was as cold as my heart without Mary in it. My brother was knocked out cold as well. The amount of alcohol is now running high in him. The guards I saw patrolled like I ordered them too.

Mary . .

You always manage to slip through my fingers.

I sighed and decided to wake my brother up.

"Alex." I said.

"Alex. Mary has left us. Again."

And just like that my brother was standing on his two feet in an instance. He looked everywhere in the room, every nook and corner but Mary was not here. I sighed and put my head in my hands. After the incident this was bound to happen. Mary has lost her faith in us again. Why wouldn't she? We had managed to let her get hurt twice in our own watch. We have caused our girl more pain than anyone else ever has.

"She left." Alex's broken voice could be heard from a distance. I merely nodded my head. She left us. No way in hell will we be able to track her. She's fucking good in laying low. After 4 years we found her coincidently yet we lost her again.

Alex's shouting could be heard in the mall hall. There is no use in trying. It will tire us out. We will not find her. We will not find our hope, our beacon of light, our Mary.

I looked around and noticed my wallet on the side table. I picked it up and checked the money. Though I never bother to check but today I did. Maybe, just maybe, she forget to took money and will use her cards; this was we could track her down. I just closed my eyes when I saw the money gone.

Mary is not a gold digger. Never had she let us spend openly on her. She hates fancy stuff. Relief coursed through my veins. At least she has money. She would not be in trouble. Me and my brother earns for her. $2000 is nothing. I'm angry at myself. I should have kept more. She only took $2000. I walked out of my room and saw Alex grabbing the security guard from his neck.

"Brother." I said and made him look at him. Alex whipped his neck towards me so fast I was amazed that it is still attached to his fucking shoulders.

"She left." I stated. Alex looked at me like I just asked for his kidneys.

"She can't." He said and returned his attention towards guard who was still wriggling in his grip.

"She has. Took the money as well." I dropped the bomb of "untraceable" on him.

First the first time in many years, I saw my brother's shoulders slump. He was defeated. Dejected. Just like me. Mary doesn't wanna get found. She will lay low forever. I can never blame her. It was not her fault.

"She did the right thing." Alex said and drooped to the floor. "We couldn't protect her. Fuck, brother. We couldn't protect the Only girl that matters. She left us again. Again in this dark mess I call my fucking life. I'm lost without her brother. I've no purpose without her. What will I do?"

"We need to get out of here, brother." I said and walked out of the hall. I do not want anyone to look at me. Not in this vulnerable state. I took deep breaths as soon as I came out of that suffocating shitty building.

Mary . . Why again? Couldn't you trust us?

How could you even ask such a thing from her? She trusted you 4 years ago and she trusted you now as well. You fucked her up at every chance you got. You cannot protect her. You are fucking useless piece of shit man.

All I could do was punch the wall nearest to me several times until my knuckles bleed. At that time I let it out. I cried.

The fucking Ukrainian Wolves cried for their beauty. For their girl. For their Mary. 

I'm Lost Without You Mary. .
