Sneha's POV (My Moon)

I slowly made my way towards my apartment. Yet again I had to go out and meet Bincy. Yet again he got what he wanted with me. Yet again I was left helpless.

The situation is getting worse day by day. Earlier he just used to touch me here and there inappropriately whenever I would be around him, but now he would call me out to have coffee at cafes, so he could do all he want freely outside the office boundaries.

Its been harder and harder to maintain my sanity. To hold myself together. To not to fall apart.

I finally reached my apartment door and inhaled deeply. I need to be strong, I'm stronger than this. As I pulled out my keys to open the door, I noticed that the door was locked from inside. I have a visitor? But before I could even comprehend it or rang the bell, the door flung open and a hand pulled me inside. And seconds later, I was pushed up against the wall. And all I did was to yelp.

"Why would you do that, idiot!? Even when I asked you not to! Why would you still go there, knowing all well the damn consequences!! Why Moon, why!?" Ryan punched the wall beside me, furiousness was evident in his eyes. I could feel his temperature rising, standing this close, as he pressed me against the wall. I couldn't look him in the eyes, I was just staring blank at the floor of my drawing room below me.

"Am I so useless that I can't even protect you?" Ryan softly whispered, and that only made all new tears to form in my eyes.

Flashback

"Now, tell me what happened?" Ryan turned to me. The ice-cream buckets in my hand started to melt by the outside temperature, but I couldn't careless about them right now.

I gulped, looking back at his deep dark orbs. Everything around us seemed to be shrank into nothingness. The roads, the shops, the trees- everything seemed to lost their meanings.

I wish I could have hold back those tears that day.

Wish I could pretend like I had done till now.

But I just couldn't anymore.

A single tear drop escaped from the corner of my eyes, asking for its freedom. My eyes burnt as I tried to hold them back.

Maybe I could have still made some excuse to all this. I could still lie to him and protect him from all this messed up situation.

But when he pulled me into a hug, holding me securely, I had to drop that mask of bravery I had been wearing since forever. I had to let him in and show him my vulnerable side.
