Always is not. Every day is.

chapter 14

Allon's POV:

I pace myself with indignation building inside of me. I walk faster and faster towards the reception of the back hall. I cannot control my anger because I cannot ignore this fact that Ryle snapped Layken. Like seriously? How dare he?

I quickly pay the amount and buy the meet and greet ticket knowing that I almost spent all of my savings but that isn't prior than layken. Nothing is more prior than her.

I walk through the door and enter the hall. There, just there I spot Ryle taking a picture with one of the girl, his so called fan. Ignoring guards and everyone including the camera clicks I walk towards Ryle pushing myself past the crowds.

"What the fuck do you think of yourself?" I shout while walking towards him making the whole crowd go silent. Not caring for a second that he is one of the many famous singer and not a street wanderer.

"Excuse me?" Ryle replies as he finally notices me referring to him.

"Yes you! Who do you think you are? A big person who can snap people or let's say his fans whom he doesn't even respect."

Ryle takes a step closer towards me. "So I guess that you are umm, somehow related to that girl who just came here few minutes ago unsure of the reason. Who wasn't even able to say something because she is retarded or something? Who was moreover wasting everyone's time? Right?" he spit every word bitterly silently laughing in between. Of course he doesn't want anyone to be aware of his original character.

"Just shut your hole" I scream.

With these the guards in the hall starts moving towards me but before they could kick me out, Ryle's friend- Ridge stops them making Ryle go suspicious.

"What Ridge?" Ryle say directing his words towards Ridge.

"I am going to shift this crowd to the next hall meanwhile you talk to this lady" he say referring to me.

Before Ryle was able to stop Ridge, who I suppose is one of the kindest person I have ever seen in my life made the guards to shift the crowd to the next hall.

"What is this all about?" Ridge ask me politely when the hall goes empty ignoring Ryle completely who is still frowning.

With the soft tone of Ridge I become unable to hold the tears back anymore and after what seems like longtime I let those tears fall down my cheeks.

"Heyy, why are you crying?" Ridge ask me while shaking my shoulders a bit.

I don't have time to do all this melodrama so I compose myself and walk closer towards Ryle who is still trying to understand what is happening all around.

"She came here to give you this canvas that she painted herself after I surprised her by buying the tickets to your concert because damn! She is so mad after you not like a crazy fan girl like others but because she respects you on behalf of your mentality, your feelings and your songs. Later I surprised her even more by buying her this meet and greet ticket because this was the only way by which she would have been able to give you this canvas which means a lot to her. Not like you would have paid any attention to it out of thousands lying on the counter. She was really excited about all of this especially about meeting you but you took this little exuberance from her. You ruined everything." My voice crack as more tears flow down my cheeks. Ryle expression changes a bit.

"You don't know anything about her. She call you her savior because she believes that you are. She almost killed herself after bearing all the tortures. She was on the last point of committing suicide but you and your songs saved her from doing that and morphed her into a complete different person and you think that she is stupid. You might think that all of this is a joke or a complete shit but it's not. She was still lost in taking in and handling the situation because it all seemed a fantasy to her that's why, that's why she was unable to say anything because she didn't know what to say and you snapped her. Of course you don't know anything about this, how would you? But you could have. Instead of disrespecting her and letting your guards kick her out. She didn't deserve this. Ahh but why the hell you would have given a fuck. You are same like everyone else. Just want to earn money and fame. If she would have known what a bastard you are before God knows for what would have happened." I bend and put the canvas on the ground and take a step back.

Ryle didn't say anything neither I expect him to say. His expression is all blank.

"Um, actua—"Ridge try to say something after a while but I cut him off by saying "it's done. Not every human is as kind, sweet and understandable like you. It's not your fault Ridge. "

I wipe my tears with the back of my sleeves and exit the hall leaving the two of them confused.

As I reached the parking lot I see Adam standing by the car while layken is inside.

"What did you say Allon?" Adam ask me as soon as I reach the car. Ignoring his question I open the door to the driving seat and Adam also gets in. I adjust the seatbelt and my rearview to look at layken whose eyes are all smudgy and her nose pink. My heart swell.

"What did you do? Where is the canvas?" she manage to ask with a very slow broken voice.

"I went flying on him, insulted that bastard and snapped him back. Though I didn't kick his family jewels or break his nuts. Sorry for that babes. " I wink at her from the rearview with a smirk on my face kicking the engine dramatically.

Her mouth escapes a silent innocent laugh.

OH God!

I drive back home in silence, all the way clenching and unclenching my jaws and my fist.

That son of a bitch.
