For-Getting You

Chapter 20. Love Lost

Keira's POV

"Good Morning" Betty is trying her best to cheer me up, "Here you go have some delicious breakfast" she put an plate of sunny side up, toast and strips of bacon, my mouth is literally watering,

"Thank you mom" she giggled at my words,

"So found any new job"

"Nope I'm trying my best though" to forget my old job and to forget him but the more I try the more I'm thinking of him, Mary and Erik called me they said sorry for thousands times and they were not even guilty of anything but still they felt bad that they were not able to help me.

Mary told me that Erik is looking in the matter and he'll prove it that I'm innocent, I wish all gets well.

I picked up my phone to check some jobs, but the first thing that pops on my screen shocked me it was an news of Troy, I put the fork down, I read it carefully, Mr. Troy Adams was seen romancing his new Assistant in middle of street, these lines were breaking me, then the picture of Troy and that bitch kills me even more, her back is hitting the car and Troy is holding her arm he is standing so close to her.

I don't know when but an lone tear escaped my eye.

"Keira are you alright" Betty came to me, she looked at my mobile screen and she squeezed my shoulder to reassure me "I told you, it's alright"

"You were right" words came out from my mouth.

"Now stop crying, hey look I know you love him, but see he don't deserve you" she wiped the tears.

"I'm crying because how stupid I was that I thought he is a nice guy, he did all these things just to get me fired so he could appoint her" I hate him.

But I'm happy that his reality came out at least now I won't feel bad for him, Betty is right he don't deserve me, he is a liar, schemer and asshole and I'm honest and loyal.

I hate you Troy Adams not because you fired me but because you lied.

Troy's POV

"How can you be so careless? Don't you think about your reputation?" Erik days pacing in front of me.

"I have told you plenty of times before I'm still telling you I.don't.care" I start to work again,

"You fired her because she was throwing herself on you I get it but what about this.. This news is telling the other story about you"

"Erik stop exaggerating, this will be removed, now you please let me work" I pointed on the file in front of me.

"What she'll think about it?" his words made me to swallow hard to control my emotions my heart was already asking the same question.

"Whom are you talking about?" I sighs.

"You know exactly whom I'm talking about Kiera what she'll think of this"

"That is not my damn problem, I don't care what she'll think she is nothing to me" my heart aches at my own words.

"You don't mean it, just confess it Troy that you miss her, that you think about her, that you want her, that you love.." I cut him off in middle.

"I don't love her!" I snapped "I don't.. The one I used to love is dead, and I still love her.. I don't love anyone else" standing from chair I turn my back to him facing my huge office window, I hear the closing of door behind me.

Love, this small word uncovers so many wounds, the pain I felt, all that happened seven years ago, everything, everyone are so changed but me my time, my soul is still there, it all seemed like yesterday, I can still feel her around, her smell is still here with me, I still remember that day when I lost her.. when she died in my arms..
