Lola's POV
So I decided to move under the seats of the train pulling the girl together with me. I have never been terrified like this. I couldn't imagine how these girls felt all this time.Fear and hope brings mixed feelings to the body. I will just try my best to get them all safe.
Two men with guns came looking for the girl.... I could hear their voices speaking.
" get out you little freak! You think u can get away from us?"
That's when the train stopped. Before I realized what was happening, the cops came inside the train....
We heard gunshots being fired....
The girls started screaming and my heart pounding covering my ears....
tears involuntarily rolled over my face.
The police took over everything and the girls were all safe.
Seems like they were all kidnapped and haven't seen their families for almost months...
They had to stay at the hospital for a night since it was too late. I checked on each of them and promised the girls I would come first thing in the morning.
........
The shock hasn't even left my system when I went home. And knowing that one of the guys had escaped wasn't helping at all.
The police wanted to ask me some questions so I have to be there in the morning.... the only thing I need right now is a warm shower and a good nights sleep...
I miss lance already. But I understand he has somewhere to be. I am just glad we are all ok for now.
......
As I got out of the shower, I took a large breath out.... feeling so warm and peaceful at my home. Tonight was a lot of mess.
I changed into my night gown and went on for a lotion to put over my legs and feet.
But then I heard my flower vase crash in the living room.......
I stopped walking and then closed my bedroom door. My heart was just pounding over my chest...
I heard voices down the corridor getting closer to me each moment....
It was just terrifying....
I rushed inside my closet as hear the lock of my room turning....
they kept on slamming and slamming on the door.... but a few trials later I heard gunshots and the door flew open..
I had to hold my mouth from screaming...
My heart was pounding and my body shaking.
Tears rolling down nonstop.
That's when my phone rang on my hands.Xander's POV
I just finished my meeting and on my way home. I saw missed calls from Lola a little bit earlier. Ughhhh it wasn't right of me to lie about my mom like that. I should surprise her with a Valentine's Day gift.... I am gonna propose to her and tell her everything from the start.
She would hopefully accept me as I am....
......
I brought some flowers on my way to Lola .... rubbing a hand on my left side of chest... feeling the proposal ring under my jacket.
I hope everything goes as planned....I parked my car downstairs and headed for the elevator...
I should call her and surprise her while she is speaking to me.... imma make this night the best of our lives.... I just can't wait for new beginnings with Lola...
.....
I called Lola and she picked up in an instant... am surprised she was this fast....
" hey baby ... how's.." I was cut off when I heard her terrified voice whispering over the phone.
" they are here inside my room... they gonna kill me lance..." then I heard her scream so loud.... and laughter of a bunch of guys.
My body stopped moving ... I couldn't take control over my body anymore.
The sound of her crying over the phone woke me up of my paralyzed state and I started running towards our apartment door....As I broke into the door I saw Lola kneeling down on the floor and a guy with a suit holding a gun over her head...
Before I even said a word, he shot her and blew her head off.
I was unable to handle all the pain and knelt down seeing her beautiful body lying over there.... covered in blood...
Tears kept running over my face and anger boiled over my head...
I had so many plans for us... I never got to introduce myself as the real me.... she never knew my name....
Then I felt one of the guys hitting my head with a big iron bar and I fell over the floor.
That's the last thing I remember before darkness took over my eyes and silence over my ears.
....................
My whole life was shattered right there...
I had lost everything. She was my everything... she was my life..
Her smile, her laughter, her innocence...... she was the brightness to my dark life...
She was my drug, a drug that numbs all the pain this life threw at me.... and I was a worthless human without her...
My life just went off in a single sec.
I saw myself growing old with her... getting married, having kids, riding bikes on the evenings and midnight naked swims.
I had planned it all.... I saw it all through my eyes.... both of us with grey hairs and old, reading books around the fire place in our living room....
I saw it all.... watering the flowers in our backyard... splashing purposely over her body.... having water fights and makeups later
.
I saw it all.... steamy nights where we both become one.I saw it all.... clear as visions but I guess it was all a dream... a vivid dream that was all a lie.
It broke my heart into pieces, shattering every wall as much as possible....
Drilling holes over my blood veins and listening to the slow and painful drip of blood out of my heart.
What have I done to deserve this? Why did I have a taste of her in the first place? What was ur reason God? What's ur reason to turn everything down on me?
I am no longer a living human
I am the living dead....
So torn in a way that I can't have myself back again.
It was all gone in just a snap of a finger....
