Met in the Rain

Chapter 1

"Why?" Tears rolling down his face. Right now the brave person was broken. He gave her the right to break his heart and that she did. "Why would someone want to be with you?" She asked smiling as she looked at him straight in his eyes. "You have gone bankrupt. Now you are just a no one and who wants to be with a no one? Tell me."

His heartbeat increased. His head was now feeling dizzy. "You............ You were with............ with me just.......just because of the........money?"His voice quivering, his heart wishing she would say no but it wasn't going to happen.

"Yes."She said not even a bit of guilt in her voice . "GET OUT!" He shouted with whatever strength was left within his soul. His legs weren't going to support him for long. His vision now hazy. His head spinning.

"I won't. You should be the one to get out. This house is mine not yours."She said with a smirk on her face." What do you mean?" He asked with a confused look. She walked back to the night stand opened the drawer and pulled out some papers out and walked back to him and held the papers out for him.

He snatched the papers from her and flipped the pages as soon as his eyes landed on his signature his eyes widened. "I never signed on these. How is it possible!?" He asked her. His voice trembling.

"I'll tell." They both turned to the person who had now got up from the bed and moved towards him with a smirk on his face. "Sir, don't you remembering the property papers yesterday?"

He was talking to someone on the phone when his lawyer walked in. "Sir?" He looked up from the floor. "I'll call you later Mr. Arek." He smiled and hung up the call. "Mr. Damien, please have a seat." He said as he sat down on this chair. "Sir here are the papers for......." Mr. Damien started speaking just then his phone started ringing. He turned his phone around and looked at the called id. "Maria? Why is she calling now?" He said in a low whisper. "Give me a second, Mr. Damien." He said to the man sitting in front of him. He picked up the call, "What's wrong baby?" He asked her a frown forming on the other side. "Baby I am not feeling well. My head is feeling dizzy. Please come back home." came the reply from the other side of the phone. His heart started beating erratically because his so called love was in danger. "Baby hold on, I am coming in a minute." He quickly stood up from his chair took his coat and was about to walk out when he was interrupted by Mr. Damien's voice. "Sir please sign these papers. We have to give them by today to Mr. Henry for the project."

"Okay Mr. Damien. Give me a pen." He took the pen from Mr. Damien and signed the papers without reading them even once but there wasn't any need to either Mr. Damien was his most trusted lawyer and moreover his girlfriend was not feeling alright at home. After signing he handed the pen back to him and walked out the door to reach his heart and see if she's alright.

"You both planned this!?" He said pointing at them moving backwards to say he was feeling hurt would be an understatement. He was beyond hurt. He was betrayed by the two people whom he trusted the most on the earth. His girlfriend and his best friend who was also his lawyer. Maria smirked as she walked towards him. "Get out." She said to him. Her eyes held no emotions. When she saw he was frozen at a spot. She called out, "SECURITY!?" the guard came running in. "Throw him out." She ordered him. His tears were falling down his face as he was dragged out the mansion and thrown out on the ground. The gates were now closed and he looked at his house which he built from his sweat and blood but it was no longer his. He got up and started walking. Soon drops started falling down the sky. After a while he was drenched in rain, it was very cold his teeth were clattering. His head was feeling dizzy. His legs were now giving up bit by bit. Just then he heard the thunder striking. His body was now shaking uncomfortably.

He started walking towards a closed store to take shelter from the rain. His body and legs were shaking uncontrollably. He heard someone shouting at him. "Move Mister." But he couldn't. A car was speeding towards him. Its light already blinding his hazy vision. The car hit him but the driver did not stop he drove away. He was now lying on the road. His hand went to his head blood now oozing out from there. Is this how I am going to end? With no one I love by my side. Looks like I came in this world alone and now I am going to die alone too. He thought in his mind. He was going to close his eyes but then he heard footsteps running towards him.

A girl ran towards him. He went to him bent down. "Keep your eyes open mister. Please. It will be alright. You will be alright." She said to him as she put his head on her lap and her umbrella lying beside him on the street. "HELP! SOMEONE HELP!" He heard her shouting but his head was feeling too heavy land he was slowly fading into the darkness with one thought on his mind. Why is a stranger trying to save me when the people I trusted the most stabbed me in the back?

The girl saw him closing his eyes. Tears started running down her own eyes. She didn't know why she was crying for him. She didn't knew why her heart was twisting and churning inside her for a man she didn't even know about. She looked around again shouted for help but in the midst of darkness there was no light or so it seemed.

As tears rolled down her cheeks she heard a screech. She looked up and saw a car had stopped right in front of her.
