Merging Destinies

       Honey. The most disgusting word for her. Before when they were still together, she felt that this endearment is the sweetest but after seeing the real him, she only felt disgusted.


       "Don't call me that way Alex. We have ended our relationship a long time ago." She calmly replied.


        "It is not up to you, honey" Alex replied while slowly making his way towards her. He threw away his cigarette after making a long drag. He puffed the smoke just like he is in a leisure walk.


When Alex is face-to-face with her, she would like to step back but decided against it. She cannot back down now. He lifted his right hand intending to caress her face but when he saw the disgusted face of the woman, he threw a slap instead.


          A resounding slap were heard in the quiet alley. The escorts of the woman were shocked and immediately pointed their guns towards the man. Consequently, the men brought by Alex were also triggered and pointed their guns to their opponent ready to rain down bullets to protect their boss. 


Alex looked at his palm, it stings because of the force he put into that slap. Then he looked into the woman who fell down holding the left side if her cheek. Her long hair which were tied into a bun were now loose and disheveled.


         "Get up" he monotonously commanded.


         She was taken off guard. She did not expect that he would slap her. Now, she felt dizzy and her stomach wound is now hurting to bad. It is now fully opened and she could feel her blood drenching her underwear. She does not have the strength to get up now.


         Picking up her courage again, she raised her head and glared at him. "What do you want?" she demanded.


         Smirking, he replied "What do I want? Don't you already know? I want you stay with me and become my wife."


        "Ok. I will be your wife but you must let these people go. This is just between us, they are unrelated" she said acting like she resigned to her fate.


          He squatted down while reaching out his hands to grab her chin. "Why so compliant Kara? Are you really protecting this people? Aren't they insignificant? I can give you more if you like, they can be easily replaced. Or…" he whispered. "…you are protecting your bastard child?"


          Kara immediately shivered and thought 'run'. When she was about to slap his hand to escape from his grasp, a loud thunder attacked their ears then the heavy rains poured in.
