Love? or Hate?

Determination

Adhena's Apartment

She looked in to the mirror. Her face was a mess. Her eyes are red and swollen. Her face have become pale.There was only one earring in her ears. She splashed water on her face

"No more crying Adhena. You have to be brave to face everything. ".

She came to her room wiping her face. She sat on the chair near the window and looked outside. she can see herself on the window pane. There was little pain in her lips.she touched her lips and thought

you only wanted me to stay away from you and your family. So I did that and closed all my feeling in a corner of my heart. Now you are only making it hard for me to do what you wanted.

what are you planning to do chris? I just don't wanted us to get hurt again. That's why I hid my feelings from you today. You don't know how hard it was for me.The moment I saw you I was trying my best.

when it all happened back then I never blamed you or your family. I thought everything is a misunderstanding. I even came to tell the same to you. But you never understood me. You just threw me away. Now also you are not able to get me. You are only thinking about that incident. Why? Why are you always ignoring me? My feelings? I didn't do anything wrong? Now you don't even trust me. You are questioning my feelings? I was always open and sincere to you. How could you say that to me?

You think only you suffered after that incident? No. You don't know what I have gone through these years. I always wanted to know what happened to my sister.You think I ignored her and enjoyed my life? I just needed a space to breathe, that much was enough for me to search for her. Every day I am struggling so that I won't lose the only person who loves me. You don't know anything?

A drop of tear started flowing down. She wiped it and said to herself "No more tears". I don't know what is in your mind? But I have ran away from my past for long. Now I want to face it. I want to know the truth. May be this is the only chance god is gonna give me. I will prove my sister's innocence to you. She can't cheat anyone. She was so pure. I won't let anyone bad mouth her. I never did anything for her. Now is my chance and for that if I have to marry you, I will. But before that I should make sure even if I am not here my mom will be safe.

Her eyes had a determination and her mind had a plan.

Greens villa

First thing Chris did the next morning was to arrange a meeting with Peter. He looked at his bandaged hand. He can't hide it. Anyway It doesn't matter No one will question him other than Peter. He put his coat and left his room.

When he came downstairs, He found living room all in order. All the mess he made yesterday has been cleared. He called sarah

"Sarah"

"Yes Mr Adam"

"I will be having breakfast outside. I will be coming back today. No need for dinner"

"Ok Mr Adam"

"And.....Sorry about the mess in the kitchen and living room. It's good you find a new vase so soon. "

"Thank you and sir I got this from the kitchen. "

she brought the pepper spray towards him. He became stunned. Adhena took a pepper spray with her just to get some water. He took it from Sarah. He smiled.

Sarah was watching him. What the hell he did to that girl? Suddenly He saw her watching him. He became serious and Said

"hmm...You can leave. "

"Ok Mr Adam"

Sarah turned and left the living room. He put it in his pocket and left the villa.

Adhena's Apartment

When Adhena got up she was feeling very heavy. Jen and lily were waiting for her eagerly. lily looked at her face said.

"oh addy you were face swelled like anything. I will make some cool packs"

Addy smiled and replied "That's ok dear"

Jen said "First we will have something"

Three of them sat around the small table to have the breakfast which lily prepared.

Jen asked "So... How are you feeling now? "

"Much better Jen"

Lily is some one who is very impatient when it comes to many things. So she directly asked Addy without any introduction.

"Addy.What you decided? Are you gonna marry him?Did you find any other way to stop all this"

Jen stared at her and pinched her "Why are you impatient? "

However surprising Jen, Addy replied.

"Yes lily.I am gonna marry him If that is what he wants. I can't fight against it. Really I don't have a choice. "

"But Addy.. He is angry at you and your family. We can't say what he is planning? How can you blindly go into it"

"I am not blindly going into it. I know now What he thinks about me and my family. I don't know what he's gonna do to me or the real reason behind his proposal. But I know it is not love rather it is because of hate. "

Jen looked into Andy's eyes. she was scared but at the same she had determination in her eyes.

"What's your plan? "

"I am gonna face my past. I need to prove my sister's innocence. I need to find the truth. And since my dad wants this marriage to happen I will make this opportunity to help mom"

"Are you planning to bargain to your dad? Whether he will fall for this? "

"I have a chance, So I will try.And one thing I know how much ever chris hates me it will be better than what I suffered in my home from Charles. "

Jen sighed "Charles is a devil. When are you planning to talk to your dad? "

"Chris said he will call a meeting with my dad. I have to do it after that because I want to know how Chris deals him. "

"" Hmmm... " Jen looked worried.

"Don't worry. I will be careful. Now lets leave for work. I can't lose it with all this going on. "

lily said "yeah.I have kept the cool pad in the fridge. Please use it before going to freshen up. "

"ok"

"And Addy,Always remember we are here. We will always support you. "

This words from lily actually shocked Jen and me. But it was a relief. she knows I am scared but she didn't said anything.

Addy hugged her and Jen joined in. Thank you God for bringing them to my life
