Salvation

Chapter 62: Salvation

"It's been a while since we both went out together" Argon started the conversation.

"Yea.. I never expected it but it is nice," then Argon stopped in his tracks.

"I still love you Maurice" for a little while no one moved as if time stopped fot the both of them...

'Please say something' it is what Argon prayed..

It was his foolishness that separated the two of them...

Maurice finally turned to him with a weak smile,

"We already made our decisions Argon.. We fell apart and it wasn't because of fate or someone else"

Maurice just took a step closer to Argon

"It was our decision, You chose your brother and I chose what I thought and still think up until this moment the right decision"

then she continued walking without waiting for him..

In the past 4 years that they were separated, He remained while Maurice grew up and moved on.

She grew and moved on without him..

Maurice gave him one last glance, " Let's do a rain check on that dinner" then she waited for him to respond but she got none. "I don't think that this will be the right time, I'll go ahead"

Once again he let her go and this time it was Maurice who walked away from him.

Madam Hera was waiting for Argon in the conference room...

He called early in the morning that there will be some changes regarding Luna and he wanted to give a heads up to her before the news even broke out..

"Thank you for waiting for me Madam," then Argon took a seat before he continues "I would like to inform you that Luna have changed management starting today and agreed to continue our contract with you and your company if you will be willing to.."

a silence took over between the two of them.

"I see no problem with that. I'll let our legal team handles the legality over at end."

"Thank you Madam" then Argon stood up and gave Madam Hera a deep bow

"There's no need for you to thank me Argon.. we have been doing this for years and I am actually indebted to those kids especially Mia"

Argon can see tenderness and amusement in Madam Hera's eyes as she say those words but he cannot recall an incident in where she will be indebted to those kids especially Mia who rarely gets out of her studio.

"I do not follow you Madam"

Madam Hera just chuckled at Argon's confusion..

"You see, I almost gave up in life itself but sometimes you just need one random encounter for you to regain yourself"

Devastation is an understatement to what Hera is currently feeling at the moment, truth be told she just wanted to die..

All this time, two if her most trusted person in her life have been lying to her and stabbing her in the back..

Her sister that she thought supported her but stole what should have been hers and her lover that only approached her for the sake of stealing her designs

Bofh of them betrayed her and make it as if it was her obligation to give up everything to them.

She wants to die.

"The water will be much more comforting than be alone in this cruel world"

She is ready to jump.

She want to end everything..

"Excuse me? Do you work at Movement?"

Hera was interrupted by a young girl whose eyes are full of enthusiasm and hope.

All she can do is nod at the girl in front of her.

"Wow!! Are you a designer? Actually I love Movement! Thank you for all the great clothes! I'll look forward to the next collection!" then she ran back to her friend

"Terrence! She works at Movement as a designer"

Hera looked at the two teenager that walked passed through her and saw a glimpse of hope for her.

That someone do appreciate her works and looked up to her.

It was enough that day to keep her going that eventually saved her from a foolish mistake she was about to do..

Argon wasn't shocked with Madam Hera's connection with Mia because he saw it multiple times before..

Thank kid had a knack of uplifting others and motivating them to be a better version of themselves

Before that incident 4 years ago, that child was like a furball bouncing from one place to another.

"She really is something, that child" Madam Hera cut off Argon's thoughts

"She do have a knack of saving others and self destruction"

"She can't even save herself"
