Chapter 56

Jane quickly ran to him "what are you doing you will catch a cold" she put the shower off and got a towel

"what are you doing here?" Chris asked, his voice almost coming out like a whisper

Jane was going to speak but she was startled, the almighty Christopher was crying, he was actually crying, and she felt really bad for him, that relationship must have seriously broken him for him to actually cry

"you need to get out of the water you will catch a cold and you might get a fever" she complained

but Chris didn't answer her, he was just looking at her, he was in a daze

"you really need to leave the bath tub, don't be stubborn at least not today, please" she pleaded

"if you refuse I will have to get your parents" she was about to stand up but held her hands

"please don't go, stay with me" he begged

Jane was shocked, did he just say please right now but quickly recovered

"fine I won't leave but you must get out of the water

he didn't say anything but when Jane dragged him he didn't refuse, she took that as a yes and tried her best to pull him up, he didn't make it any easier for her either, he leaned on her

she was able to manage to bring him to the room and help him sit on the floor

"you need to pull your cloth, or you will catch a cold" Jane said

"she's the cause, she made me what I am, how dare she?" Christopher said and he was obviously crying

Jane was dumbfounded she didn't know what to say or do, he was actually crying

"is she your ex girlfriend?" she asked

Christopher didn't say anything, he only nodded

"well you have to move on with your life, I know she must have hurt you a lot, for you to still be hurting this much, but you can't keep doing this to yourself, you are not only hurting yourself but also the people around you" she said looking into his eyes

"I wish it were that easy, but she she did more than just break my heart, she turned me into a monster, she made me do the unthinkable, I'm a monster Jane, a monster" he said more tears rolling down his face

thinking that he was talking about his cold and arrogant behavior "you can always become a better person, you just need to forgive yourself and let go of the past" she said again

"it's not in my place to forgive, it's hers" Chris said

Jane didn't understand what he just said and she didn't try to think much of it

"you need to pull your cloth Sir" she said again

"I can't, I don't what to do anything" Christopher replied, he just wants to go back in time and stop himself from commiting that horrible act

Jane was confused, who should she call, he won't pull the cloths and he won't allow her call his parents

"can I pull them for you" she summoned the courage to ask

Christopher chuckled, how funny he thought

"do whatever you like"

Jane moved closer to him and start to undo the button of his shirt, she tried to look away as much as possible but she just could not keep her eyes off this hot guy, and thank goodness that all the lights in the room were not on he would have clearly seen her cheek burning

she saw that scar again and it was like she had not seen it before, a lot of emotions surged through her, he reminded her of herself, she also went through a lot of pain when that bastard defiled her like that, she also contemplated sucuide until she she knew she was expecting Chris, her life took a new turn and she was determined to live for her child, but sometimes it still hurts her and a lot of what if can't help but run through her brain that she sometimes blames herself

she didn't know she was crying until she felt someone's fingers on her cheek, she looked up and it was Chris and for reasons she could not explain she cried more, she closed her eyes and let all the pain go, all those times she had pretended to be happy just for Chris, she could not cry in front of him or anywhere close to him for fear of him knowing

Chris held her close to his chest and allow her soak him with her tears, he felt incredibly sad, he didn't like seeing her like this, when he felt she was a bit calmer, he spoke

"are you crying for me?"

"yes" she answered even though that was not what she meant to say but sincerely she was also crying for him, she couldn't imagine Chris going through that, no human should go through it

Chris brought her face to face him, he couldn't believe what he just heard, this woman was crying for him?

"really?"he asked softly

"yes, and I'm also crying for myself, I can imagine the kind of pain you must have gone through, it really hurts" she said her voice breaking

Chris felt his heart melt with those words, no one other than his family had ever cried for him and it feels so great to know someone cares for him genuinely

"thank you" he said and pulled her closer for a hug, he had originally wanted to kiss her but he didn't want it to seem like he was taking advantage, that was why he hugged her instead

Jane didn't say anything, she just allow the tears flow even more, the stayed like that for minutes

Jane remembered that she had to treat his wound and he also had to change his clothes

she pulled out of the hug "sir you have to change your clothes I will go get the first aid kit while you do that" Jane said

Christopher didn't argue but only nodded, he stood up and made his way to the bathroom, Jane left the room to go search for the first aid box
