Memories ! I personally believe it can be the best punishment for one . Where there are no physical scars but the pain can be worse than any physical injury . Here Our own mind becomes the prison and their is no escape . You are stuck in it where no one will come to your rescue but you . Here our enemy is the good memories that haunt us in our vulnerable moments . Funny , that we don't even have any defence mechanism to defend ourselves . Our alley becomes the enemy and all we can do is just feel the pain when it hit our weak point . It is said that one can endure or cure the physical pain but it is the emotional pain that break us apart and their is no sound or scar to acknowledge it's happening . It is a kind of pain that eats us from inside and we Don't even have any logical explanation .

Last night was one of those nights where my mind turned against me and my heart . It attacked us with all the memories that I have buried deep down and never wanted to revisit . When we are going through heartbreak our mind adds other painful memories to intensify it to an extent that all we feel is helplessness and darkness around us . I found myself stuck in the darkness of self loathing and despair with not a single ray of light around .

After Elliot left last night or we can say after I forced him out , I cried my heart out . I fell asleep when not a single ounce of energy was left in me and now I woke up on the couch with a terrible headache . And my eyes are puffed courtesy of last night .

I dragged myself to get freshen up . This is what I hate the most . I am not talking about freshening up . It is what I hate ,when we have to behave like everything is fine , that you are fine , when in reality you are everything but fine . Ignoring the headache , I got ready and face myself in the mirror . Damn , I look like s**t !! I applied concealer under my eyes and did my make up to look presentable . Once satisfied with my look , I headed to the kitchen and gulped the aspirin with a glass of water . That was when I noticed my hand . The cut was not too deep and will heal in a few days . It does not require bandage yet I cover it up with white bandage . I am already late so I will grab a cup of coffee on the way . I took my backpack and left the apartment . As soon as I step out , I noticed two well builded men standing there with their hands locked back .

I stood there totally clueless with eyes wide open . I am still in process of digesting the events from my abduction to showing up of Elliot and now I am finding these two men outside my door . It is all too overwhelming .

I asked "Who are you and what are you doing here ?"

One with blonde hair bowed and replied "We are appointed as your bodyguards , so we are here to protect you ."

There was no emotion in his voice .

"Who appointed you ?" I asked even when I very well knew who it would be .

Before he could open his mouth a voice came .

"I appointed them ."

I rolled my eyes and turned to face Elliot. He was standing before me in a designer three piece navy blue suit with a stoic face . There was no playfulness which would never leave his face during our brief affair . I feel bile raising up at the thought of calling it an affair , when it meant something to me . I don't know about him but it was more than something for me .

I shook all the thoughts from my mind and snapped "I don't remember asking for it !"

I will not let my emotions take control of me . Never and especially not in front of him . He stood there with no expression on his face while the other two men who were appointed as my bodyguards without my consent flinched at my harsh tone .

"When did I say you asked for it ? It is me who appointed them and you have no say in this ." He replied with a cold face . My heart drops in my guts at his cold demeanour . I hate him so much right now . I don't get it , how I fell for him .

"And who gave you the right to decide anything about me ?" I snapped back in a harsher tone . If he thinks that I will give in then he has another thing coming his way . I stood their eye to eye , having no intention of backing down . He can not decide everything on his own in my life . He just can not disappear on me and come back when he wants to .

He let out a sigh and said " They are for your safety . I am still in the process of finding the main culprit who wanted to abduct you . And I believe you are smart enough to know that those who kidnapped you were contract kidnappers who do such things for money ."

Yes , it is true but I will not let him have his way with me .

"I don't need your protection . I will take care of myself like I always do ." I am not ready to let him off the hook . He can not just come back and behave like everything is fine between us .

"They won't bother you and will maintain the appropriate distance . You will not even know that they are around ." He reasoned out , but I am still not ready to back down .

"I said , I don't want them . I can take care o.." I began but was cut short by Elliot.

He took my hand in his and asked "How is your hand ?"

"None of your business !" I pull my hand from his grasp and turn to leave . I have had enough of him . I made my way to lift when I caught a glimpse of Elliot from my peripheral view signaling his men to follow me . I shook my head and entered the lift and pressed the ground floor button as soon as possible . I let out a sigh of relief knowing that they won't be able to catch up with me .

I hurriedly went on the street and hailed a cab as my car was at the office . I got into the cab and told him the destination . He was about to pull away when two men entered the cab , one in the passenger seat and the other beside me in the back seat . How the hell did they come down so fast ? The cab driver said "Hey hey hey , It is already booked . climb down now ."

The guy in the passenger seat replied "We are with her ."

The cab driver turned to me for confirmation and I nodded my head . Throughout the journey I keep my eyes trained on the by-passing scenery . It is so exhausting . As soon as we reached, I stepped out and paid him the fare . Blonie and black haired guys keep following me . I was about to push the door when the blonie did it for me and held the door for me to enter . I straight away headed for Jack's cabin . Both the guys did not enter with me but stood on the door like guards .

I slump down on the sofa that was placed on the other side of the table . Jack raised his eyes from the file that he was working on and gave a bright smile "Hey , very good morning to you too ." he greeted me in his chirpy voice . My headache was back with the little encounter that I had at my doorstep a few minutes back with Elliot . And his loud voice was irritating me beyond limits .

"Not everybody are having a good morning ." I snapped .

"Oah , Who is behind your diseasters .. I mean dull mode ." He quickly changed his flow of words at my pointed gaze .

Once again as it dawned on me what had happened in the last 16 hours , my lips trembled and tears threatened to fall . I bit my lower lip in order to prevent myself from crying . Jack instantly gauged my emotion and hurried to come to me . He took me in his hug and let me cry my mesires on his shoulder .

"It's okay . See , I am with you ." He kept chanting in my ears .

"Everything will be okay . I won't let anything harm you ." He was trying to calm me down without even knowing what was the issue . I was holding onto him and let everything out with my tears . After what felt like eternity , I stopped crying when there was nothing left in me . Jack offered me a tissue box and cleaned myself dry . Along with my tears , the make-up I did was washed away .

"You look like s**t ." Jack commented .

When he felt like I was calm enough , he offered me a glass of water and asked me "what happened ?"

Without meeting his eyes , I replied "He is back !"
