Aaliyah's POV
He wanted explanation, and he wasn't going to give in this time or else he'll hire a detective my mother's words continuously rang in my mind 'never let anyone find your dirt by anyone else but you, it always messes things up man up and say that by yourself'I knew he'd judge c'mon we're talking about him here I took a deep breath and decided if he wants to know I'll let him know even though it means opening old wounds I'd do that.
We went inside the study room I was beginning to think it's more like confession room to him he always says everything in here only and it's kind of annoying, I made myself comfortable because we both were in for a very long night.
"Explain" I heard his commanding voice and I flinched a little now i know why talha was flinching like that huh karma.
"I lost my father in very young age I was only 10 and since then my mother was the one who took care of us we were always treated as royalty always getting what we wanted one way or another and the only thing we lacked was love, a mother's love, in order to fulfill all our wishes she became our father. I wanted to be loved and that's when I found myself searching for that love outside our family but little did I know that I was becoming a playgirl changing boyfriends like clothes and finally I fell in love or so I thought but after 8 months found him cheating to me I was devastated but I pulled myself together and that's when I met him. Talha shaikh we were total opposite I was fire and he was water I was wild and he was shy I didn't even noticed when he broke the walls around me and made himself comfortable in my heart.. he decided to change me change my playgirl ways and he did I didn't dated anymore I searched my distraction in parties and nightouts he controlled them whilst i used to go everyday for clubs and nightouts I went once in a month or 2 soon I found my distraction in working everything was going good until one day he called me and that day was the most drastic day of my life.
flashback...
Today was a great day I got promoted at my hotel I was literally on cloud 9 but sadly I didn't had anyone to share my happiness with talha has been acting so weird lately he doesn't talks at all as in he just killed someone and now hiding, for all I know he probably would've.I decided to ask him what happened to him and made my way to the house I wanted to share this news with madre she would be so proud of me I can practically hear her excited voice in my head, Hah funny I know.
I got done with my dinner and was helping my mother with the dishes when I heard my phone ring and suprisingly it was talha who wanted to meet urgently I scoffed and told my mother I'm going out and will be back in sometime according to him it's very important I made my way to the address which was only 5 minutes away from my house only to see talha pacing back and forth there I made my way to him and I was truly worried he looked so worn out he wasn't his usual self
"Talha what's the matter that it couldn't wait till tomorrow?"
"Aaliyah what I'm about to do is surely gonna make you feel like I'm a total asshole but you need to understand it's for the best I truly love her" and that made my heart skip I clearly didn't had any idea what he was talking about and I waited patiently for him to finish.
"Aal I've been lying to you I'm in love with a girl we've been seeing each other past 2 years and recently made it official but the thing is she doesn't feels comfortable with our bond aal she feels insecure and she wants me to choose between you and her and I choose her aal I'm so sorry but we need to call off our friendship it's been great 4 years with you aal I'm so proud of the person you've become but I'm afraid I have to call things off I love her too much and I can't loose her from now onwards you're nothing to me but a stranger and I'd like it that way" with that he walked away.
I was numb, I was confused, I was hurt, suddenly I couldn't breath at all it was all too much my legs were on grass yet I still felt myself falling in dark abyss and that's what realization kicked in I'm having panic attack and my fucking luck no one was in sight I guess that's how im gonna die.
I heard stuff moving I heard my mother's whimper I could feel my brother's plea for me to wake up but i couldn't open my eyes i wanted to open my eyes and assure them I'm fine i hate it when my mom cries with all the force in my body I opened my eyes my throat felt like crumbled paper so dry I mustered enough courage and grasp my brother's hand and his head whipped up I would've sworn he looked like he saw a ghost I told him to give me water soon my mother was by my side scolding me seriously scolding me to go out and pass out like sure madre next time when I pass out I'll make sure i pass out on the highway suddenly everything came rushing back.
The meeting, his words the hurt, his betrayal, karma was definitely getting back to me after some time I led someone in my life too much I led someone in my heart and they realized only way out was breaking it so they broke it without any hesitation.
I felt so stupid I led people in just for the sake of love and they played me dirty. very dirty 4 years ago i thought nobody could break me now cause i didn't gave them chance to do it little did i know history will repeat itself and this time it'll take everything from me. He took everything from me my trust, my wish to love someone unconditionally, my belief, he left me and this time I was damaged beyond repair.
I made vow to myself to never ever let anyone in my life I was too good to be loved destiny has made it clear I'm definitely not the type to be loved at all so I did the only thing I dreaded my entire life I became the person I wouldn't ever wish upon my enemies I became cruel. I worked hard I betrayed I exposed the secrets and made my way till here.
The most dangerous thing was people feared me because everybody knows. I don't wait for karma to get back at them I do that by myself and then too in most painful way I hit where it hurts the most.
Heyyy sooo she confessed finally yaaay!!!
Wait for ajmal's reaction loviessss
Hasta luego....
