Chapter 9

Brian POV

the day before

It has been a month since I last came home. I made sure that neither do I or she cross each others path, but I couldn't stop my mind from drifting back to her thoughts. And when her tiny body crashed into mine earlier today, I had to resist the urge to hold her.

The house was empty and silent. If it was any other time before I got married,I wouldn't have bothered much. But after the wedding , this empty place was always filled with noise and warmth. It always felt as if someone lived here. Kiara was to be given credit for that.

The day  usual started with her rushing to work as she tends to wake up late. She never changed did she. Old habits die hard. And in the evenings the living room would be filled with noises of her Asian drama or with loud music blaring from her room of EXO or any other Kpop bands. But today, it is silent and I find myself affected with lack of noises which I usually hate.

Just to make sure what caused this silence , I go check in her room. She wasn't there. Neither was she taking a bath.I searched the whole house but she was no where to be found.   Where could she have gone? . I call Ann to check whether she has an idea where Kiara could have gone. But to no avail, Ann didn't know. 

I wait for her in the living room, maybe she might come late. Time passed but she didn't come back. With each hour passing by I could feel the anger in me bubbling up.  I tried calling her number, but she didn't pick up. 

Where the hell did she even go that she doesn't even pick up my calls?!!! 

Next day

I stride towards my cabin, not giving a damn but all the stares I was getting. All I could think of was her. She didn't return home the whole night, neither did she come today morning. 

Kiara Lacce, you sure have the audacity to not return home yesterday night and dare not inform me about it.  

With no longer being able to control my anger,I make way to her desk. And there she was grinning while looking at her phone. I grab her arm harshly and drag her to my cabin. Not giving a damn about all those curious eyes. All I need are just answers , nothing else bothers me now.

I slam her to he wall and trap her between my arm and the wall. Not losing my grip on her arm. The closer I stood to her, the stronger was the scent of a man on her. And the fact that she was wearing her yesterdays clothes, gave me no reason but to lash out on her.

I may not involve myself with her, but she belongs to me . And I don't like others touching mine. A storm was raging inside me. And I lash out her, while throwing some hurtful word at her. But they were all I felt.  She spent the night with a man and she dares telling that to me in calm tone.

She lashed at me back for accusing her. And how I failed at being a husband. Her eyes welled up with tears. Since we were kids, she always used cry when she felt unfair or she was angry. And this made me realize that she wasn't lying and wasn't guilty of anything I accused her of. 

A part of me was relieved at that, but a part of me was still confused. She was the same Kiara I knew of. But what changed her that she didn't recognize me. Do I not ring a bell in her mind? I still haven't gotten over how long I had been away from her.

I kinda low key feel bad for wrongly accusing her. And Imma try making up for this. 

She didn't change. So maybe I can try giving our marriage a shot. Maybe.

Authors Note

Hey!! I updated once again. So I've been thinking that I should try updating every week, though I can't guarantee it. 

Btw what do think of this Brian's POV?  Its so hard to write his POV!!!

Do you think Kiara and Brian knew each other ? If they did , why doesn't she remember him??
