We Could Be In Love (English)

Chapter 12~ Stranger's fight

"Graynard stop! Let me go!" I tried to pull away from him but it didn't seem to be enough for him to stop. He pressed his lips against mine hardly that it made me not to breathe properly. One hand around my waist, and the other behind my head. My body was shaking and I couldn't even manage to stand properly because of the different sensation it brought to me. I really wanted to fight against it but I was too weak. "Graynard please stop it!" I couldn't recognize my voice anymore. It was too husky and low. "Please stop!" I begged. This time he let go of me but he just remained standing in front of me. He licked his lips as he looked deeply into my eyes. I couldn't control the emotion that filled me. My eyes watered as teardrops flowed freely on my cheeks. I let go of a heavy sob.

"I'm sorry Alexis." He almost whispered my name.

I didn't answer him instead I slapped his face. He didn't move. He didn't even say anything. He just stood there watching me crying softly. "What did I ever do to you?! Huh? Granard? What??" I asked him. He raised his hand trying to comfort me but I stopped him. "Don't you dare to touch me again!" I managed to say between my sob.

"Look... I'm really sorry for----"

"For what?! For screwing up my life!!? My heart felt like it would explode any second. "Your sorry is not enough! Your sorry can't heal the pain I have in my heart, even the anger I have for you!!"

"Alexis...."

"Stop calling me Alexis! You have no right to call me in my name.! You are no good to me!" I shouted at the top of my lungs.

"If you don't wanna accept my apology then fine!!" He fired back and it added to my resentment. Why was he acting like he was the victim here? "Don't tell me that I am the only one who has a mistake here.! Remember, you also have."

My head was spinning and the words he was saying couldn't register to my mind anymore. "Leave me alone Graynard!" I said instead while wiping my eyes with the back of my hand.

"Why can't you defend yourself now? Because What I said is true. Right?!"

"I said leave me alone!!! I don't wanna see your face anymore!! So leave the hell out of me!!!" My voice sounded like a roaring thunder but there was no sign of fear in him. He just gave me a glance before turning away.

A sudden relief I felt as he finally disappeared in my sight. Then I looked at my hands that were still shaking because of anger. He was the first person who made me extremely angry. I closed my eyes trying to forget what had happened. But the more I wanted to forget about it, the more it played in my head and it made me insane. I wanted to shout! I wanted to tell the whole world how devastated I was. I was just grateful that he finally went away and never came back. If he had stayed more, I might have hurt him again and again until I lost my power. But hurting him physically wouldn't have been enough, I wanted him to feel what was inside of my heart.

I looked around me. It was getting dark and my aunt was probably looking for me. I wasn't able to tell her where I was going for she was in the market when I left. I just sent her a message to say that I would be back by five but I guessed it was almost six in the evening. I took a deep breath as I opened the door of my car and got into the driver's seat. I wanted to stay for several minutes more but I didn't want her to worry about me. I didn't want to give her an idea that I was in trouble again which was true. I had no choice but to keep it from her especially about me and Glenn. The fight we had because of Graynard. I was certain that if she had known about what happened in the restaurant two weeks ago, she would have been so distraught. That was the reason I never told her about it. I already did everything just to persuade her not to go to the cops and complained. Though I made her agree with it, it wasn't still an assurance that she would just keep quiet and I knew that she would discover it one day. I sighed and made a last glance outside before I started the engine and drove away.
