What Are We?
538 Words
Confused,broken and lost.
That's how my past few days were.
I sticked my hands out of the window and watched the environment around me.
The urge inside me to punch the wall grew again.I tried to resist it.I was so frustrated.I had no one to talk to.
Coming back from the balcony,I stood in front of the creamy wall.
Just as I was about to punch the wall,a hand grabbed mine and pushed me to the wall instead.
"Why are you so disobedient?" Luke asked me as his body pressed upon mine.
I looked down at him.He grabbed my jaw and made me look into his eyes.
"Tell me." His voice was strangely calm which was even more daring.
"It's my wish!" I replied,trying to stand up for myself.
"Do you remember when I said if you are hurt,I am hurt?" He asked.I nodded.
"Then?" He asked.
"Promise me that you won't ever do it again." He said in a strict voice.
"Promise me." He whispered again.
"I promise." I whispered back.
"What should I do if you break your promise again?" He asked.I went silent.
"Don't make me regret my decision Lucia.Don't hurt yourself.Don't make me do things I don't want to." He said and left.
He left but his strength,his words and his scent remained.
"If you are hurt,I am hurt." These words lingered around my mind for the rest of the night.
"If you are hurt,I am hurt."
"If you are hurt,I am hurt."
His whispers lurked around the room.I could feel his presence even when he wasn't there.I could hear his voice in my sleep.His exhales in my ear.
"If you are hurt,I am hurt."
If I am hurt,he is hurt.
Do I mean so much to him? Does he really care about me? Does he really love me?
What was love?
The feeling I feel towards him,is that love?
Wasn't love forbidden between us?
Didn't I come here to avenge Alex?
Why doesn't Alex matter to me anymore?Is it because I never mattered to him?
That night,I jumped over his body just to save him from getting shot.Without thinking,I gave up myself just to save him.
When Walker sent his men to kill him,I ran faster than the light.Even when I got hit by the car,I didn't stop.I dragged my injured body and ran to him just to save him.
I didn't poison him.I could've but I didn't and I don't and will never regret this decision.
I betrayed my fiancé,my family,my country,just for him.Do I care about it? The answer was simply no.
Whatever happens, it's for the best.If Alex hadn't died,would I ever meet Luke?
Maybe in a different way or in a different world.
But what would I do in this world without him?
He killed many men just to save me and he was willing to protect me no matter how dangerous it was for him.
He accepted all the threats which included his life,just so he could save me and stay with me.
He was cruel, ruthless and heartless to the entire world but when it comes to me,he was kind,generous and a man no one can match upto.
Why? Is it because he loved me?
"What was love?What are we?"
