Illusions (Enoch O'connor)

Chapter 14: No

Zaira Pov:

Slowly the door opened. Out stepped one of the boys I've missed the most.

Instantly I ran to him. Engulfing him in a hug. I burry my face into his neck and began sobbing.

It was him. It was Johnny Boy. He looked almost the same as he did before. Only now he had a small scar on his cheek.
I know I should be mad he fucked with my head but..... I can never be mad at my Johnny Boy.

He rubbed my head as I cried. " It's okay short-cake. It's alright now, I'm right here." He soothed me as I whimpered and cried.

I looked up at him. He was older. He was taller and more muscular, but other than that he was the same old Johnny Boy.
" Why would you do this to me!? Why Johnny Boy Why!?" I shouted in tears.

He hugged me and I swore I felt a tear hit my shoulder as he spoke to me.

" We had to. We had to protect the Daughter of the Enchantress." He said in a sadden tone.
For four years he was gone. Four years I belived he was dead, and I'd never see him again.

Lilly looked at me and shook her head. " Mister Condor knew this was for the best."

I stopped.

Slowly I let go of Johnny and turned to Lilly.

" Mister Condor knows......he knew what I was going though and he let it happen?" I asked.

Lilly turned her head to the floor. Eventually she nodded her head yes.

I put my hand over my mouth. " Is he the only one?"

She shook her head, " No. Rachel, Ryder, Roni and Doni knew. We couldn't tell Light becuase we knew that once he saw you sad he'd break and tell you. So we changed his memories too...."

I looked up at her, " How's Riddian?" I asked hopefully.

Her entire mood dropped.

She pulled letter out of her pocket and handed it to me.

" We'll be downstairs. Read that."

I know these last few chapters have veen short but bare with me. I'm doing this for a reason. Please don't hate me.
