End (Flash Back)

His father's death broke him so much that he has lost himself but I won't let him go this easily. I will convince him no matter how ugly he could get with me. If he tries to push me away, I will get back to him with double the force. I can't throw him into the fire, knowingly.

I know enough to sense that Mr. Adam died while serving in the city and he left his family behind to protect them. However, Mrs. Adam knew that and yet she hid it for some sake. Something wasn't right there and she knew it. Almighty forbid, I can't see him going through the same thing. So, I clench my fists and grit my teeth and fired the bullet and realized it too late what had I done.

"I love you." My voice came out soft and low but enough for him to hear.

I don't know when I moved from my position and knelt down in front of him but I was on the floor, reflecting a person who was lost, tired and hopeless. I was facing the floor and not looking into his eyes, afraid for his answer.
