Chapter 19- A broken heart never heals Part 2
Xiaoyu
I can't believe I let him play me, again…" Xiao said sadly, tears streaming down freely.
"Miss Ling, are you alright?" asked Charles, worriedly.
Xiao turned her vision to the window and stared out at the buildings, it was raining…perfect weather for a gloomy person, like herself. She sighed heavily and cried… she felt drained…emotionally…
"Why did he do that? … I just knew he never did love me…he just used me, like a fool…and I believed him…" she muttered.
She turned up the heater, and shivered…
She thought deeply again.
"And what was Ethan doing with Christie?" she questioned herself… Try as she would, she couldn't stop thinking…thinking of Jin…What was he doing now?
"No…I can't think of him…he belongs with Julia now…" she said.
Jin
"What have I done…?
You hurt her…
"No…"
You betrayed her…
"No…"
You have no one now… let me out… I can help you…
"Leave me alone DEVIL!" Jin yelled in anguish and clutched his head in pain.
"Jin?" came a soft voice.
Jin turned to look at her…his left eye crimson…slowly flickering… his hair dripping wet from standing out in the rain, the bangs in a mess on his forehead…his muscular chest rose and then fell down again, because of his heavy breathing…
"Jin, are you okay?" Julia asked again, worriedly and began advancing towards him.
"S-stay back……" he said stammering, his crimson eye slowly turning to brown the red…then brown again…
"Jin…it's okay…what we did…" she began, but was cutoff.
"Never happened…" he finished for her.
"What? But…" she asked surprised.
"Look, I'm not in the mood…" he said, "Xiao saw us…"
"Xiao? She came here?" asked a worried Julia.
"Yes…look…just…just leave me alone…" he said sadly, "I need time to myself…"
"No Jin, I can't leave you in this state…you look a wreck…" said Julia and placed a soft kiss on Jin's forehead, but he pulled away.
"I know you care a lot, Julia…but…" he was cutoff.
"You do love her, don't you?" asked Julia.
He remained silent…
Xiaoyu
"…Home at last…well…if you call it a home…" she said gloomily.
She ran upstairs to her room, and threw the keys on the bed side table then flopped down on the bed, and cuddled a soft pillow in her arms, and cried…
"Why, Jin? …Why…?" she questioned herself.
"I hate myself so much now…why didn't I go with Ethan?"
"Miss Ling, you're so filthy…! C'mon now! You have to go for a shower! It's already so late!" came the voice of the maid.
"I need to call up Clara tomorrow morning …" said Xiao.
"I've laid out your pajamas on your chair, right there!" she said pointing to her PJs.
"Thanks…I guess…" she replied.
"Ah, and Master MacMillan has returned finally!" exclaimed the nurse as the door bell rang.
"Hmmm…okay…I have to ask him about Christie…" she said, "But first…I need a bath…"
Half an hour later…
An aromatic scent of wild flowers filled the room making it cozier and pleasant…
"A hot bath was all I needed to get me better…!" she said aloud, trying to sound happy as she slipped her feet in her fuzzy, pink slippers and made her way to her warm soft bed…
"Going to bed, so soon?"
Ethan.
"Yeah, I'm kinda tired, unless you didn't notice…" she said sarcastically.
"Some one's in a bad mood…" he countered jokingly.
"Yeah…" she said bluntly.
"Hey I got your ice cream, and this is the thanks I get…" he said sarcastically.
"I'm sorry…it's just……I'm not in a good mood…" she said wearily.
"Why? What happened? I told you I couldn't make it today…" said Ethan.
"Yeah, cause you were with Christie…" she replied, and the clasped her hands over her mouth at what she had said.
"How did you know?" he asked surprised as well.
"I have my ways…" she said, a small smile crept onto her face, and disappeared as soon as it had come after remembering what had happened.
"Why were you with her?" she asked curiously, trying to forget what had happened between her and Jin…
…and Julia…how could she have done that to her?
A small tear trickled down from the side of her cheek, and she quickly wiped it away, trying to hide it from Ethan… too late…
"Hey, I saw that…" he responded, referring to the tear, "What happened Xiao? She's an old friend…we met before…" he was cutoff.
"It's not that…it's something else…I should've listened to you Ethan…he was nothing but a liar all along…"she said sadly.
"Who's "he" ?" Ethan questioned curiously.
"JIN! THAT'S WHO!" she screamed angrily, and sank down…tears flowing freely.
"What happened? Did he come here and do something to you? I'll kill him if he did anything to you…!" said Ethan angrily.
"I don't……want ……to ……talk about ……it" she said in between hiccups, tears still pouring profusely.
"Shhh…come here…you can talk to me…" Ethan said carefully scooping up the trembling girl in her arms and placing her onto the bed.
"N-nuh-no……I ……n-need to……be l-left alone…" she stammered.
"No you don't…I'm here for you…I will always be…you know that, don't you?" he asked wiping away her tears.
"I saw…t-them……together…I-in…b-b-bed……HE BETRAYED ME!" she yelled.
"Shhh…forget about him…he doesn't deserve some one like you…" Ethan said comfortingly while pulling the covers over her, "C'mon get some sleep, tomorrow, we can sort things out…"
He was about to leave when Xiao stopped him, "Ethan… wait…" she said softly, and wiped away the remainder of tears on her pink face…
"What is it Xiao?" he asked.
"I-I…I don't want to be left alone tonight……I'm scared……I ……" she was cutoff, by Ethan placing his index finger on her lips.
"I understand…" he said, removing his shoes…and lying down beside her, he placed his arm on her waist and his hand gently stroking her hair…
"Shhh…it'll be alright…I'll take care of you…" he said softly…
…And within a few minutes…she was asleep…
