Chapter 50: 50

"Tell me why did you call me here?" Ayla said while James was sitting just right in front of him.

"Why are you such an impatient little girl? We just came so why so much hurry? Have some refreshments, cookies to fill your tummy to your heart’s content then we’ll talk", James said while pushing a glass of orange juice toward her.

Ayla raised her brows seeing his behaviour.

"What has gotten to you?"

"Do you think we are here for a date? No right? Then come to point or I will just leave", she said and tried to get up from the place when James held his hand making her face come closer to his.

"What the hell are you doing?" she shouted and broke through his hand.

"What? You are about to leave so I just tried to stop you. Why are you acting like this as if you are still in love with me?" James’s eyes grew darker.

Huh! Love? With him? I must have gone crazy to say I loved him. I must have gone crazy to think he was my first love when it was all an illusion trying to blind my eyes, Ayla thought.

"Why so silent?"

Ayla chuckle and said, "I m just wondering how dumb you are."

"What do you mean?" he asked.

"As you said you still wonder if I love you when you clearly never made me love you," she spoke.

James stayed silent.

"To be honest I never spoke about this to anyone till now. Not you nor anyone else even my family. Being with you was a good feeling which made me think of being in love but it was just an illusion for me.

But being with Aaron was precious. I don’t quite remember how was my relationship with him before I lose my memory but someone I feel a glimpse of his holding me tightly in his ar-

"Stop it, Ayla!!! I didn’t bring you here to hear your stupid imagination", he burst.

"Stupid? Do you think my losing memory is stupid or do you think when I see a glimpse of my lost memory is stupid when you clearly know it’s not? Or do you think me being in love with Aaron is stupid?"

"Talking with you is stupid", James said.

"Then you shouldn’t have called me here in the first place", she said.

"But when you instantly came here hearing from me made me wonder just how freaking you are in love with me.

Did I make you desperate?

Did I make your heart throb?

Or did you feel butterflies in your stomach?

Tell me, Ayla!!!"

Tch, so delusional, Ayla thought.

"Don’t be in delusion", Ayla said, sipping her juice.

"I’m not delusional but you’re falling for an asshole when you can’t even make up your own freaking brain," he said.

"What are you saying?" she asked.

"As you said at first you came out of nowhere to a conclusion and confessed to me asking me if I took you to the hospital that day. Then you kept on following me here and there to get an answer and made me agree with you but the moment you saw me and Yona kissing you put the blame on us and came out of the situation.

But now you are saying that your first love is him? Then why blame me when you are not in love with me? Was it fun, Miss. Ayla White? Was it fun to make me feel guilty for so long?"

"I-

"What are you? You are just toying with each one’s life you know. First me then my brother now there is another one named Xenon. Did I say it right?" he raised his brows while Ayla was still looking for a word to make her come out of this situation.

"Can’t you say?" James kept on asking.

"I said it clearly, the one I ever love is Aaron," she replied.

"Then what about Xenon? Don’t you love him? Is that a friend with benefits?" he asked.

"No I do love him too", she replied.

"No Ayla, one person can’t be in love with two unless one is lust or obsession. So tell me what you have for whom?" she asked when Ayla started biting her teeth.

"Tell me, Ayla!!!"

"Just shut your freaking trap, James. You are just trying to manipulate me at each question you ask me. I don’t see where you are going but I can see all you want to prove is that I’m just a selfish bitch who is in love with no one. Is that right?" she asked.

"Yes, it is the answer", James answered.

"No James no you are just lust. If what you said is true then what are you when you confronted me in front of me after you kissed Yona and later you came up with that Jace told you to act with me but you didn’t want to hurt me? So still you still choose affection and lust at once.

Then are you a selfish bitch too?"

"Ayla, mind your tongue!!"

"Why? Did it hurt you? But can’t I see you bleed?" she started being sarcastic.

"Whatever you are doing will never bring Aaron to you. I will never let that happen. I will never repeat the same mistake which will make him lose his mind."

"Then let’s see if you can succeed or not ’’, she said and left.

After a while, a person in a black outfit came and stood in front of him.

"Did you take shots clearly?" James asked.

"Yes boss, you can check it out", he said and handed him the camera.

He kept on scrolling through the picture with a wide smile growing on his lips.

"Yes you did a good job", he praised that black outfit.

"Now I will see how Aaron will ignore my word after this", James said and dialled his number.

He was still waiting for the call to connect when his eye fell on the person whom he kept on looking at with a shocked expression as if he saw a ghost.

"What is she doing here?" he said while running after the person but she lost in the crowd making him anxious.

He kept running while he was out of breath. He couldn’t take it anymore, still, he was on a run where he couldn’t stop but run until he reached the stage he wanted to.

"Hey, watch where are you going?" someone shouted at him for hitting.

"Sorry but I’m in a hurry", he said and ran again till he reached near the completely silent beach.

"Where did you lose?" he asked while holding his temple while his eyes turned to full of tears and his heart kept on beating louder.

While he was thinking, some glimpse started playing on his mind.

"James, you deserve this treatment."

"Do you think what you are doing is good?"

"Do you think this is going to bring happiness?"

"If you are thinking then you are wrong because one day you will destroy everything because of this fucking obsession of yours."

"And that day there won’t be me."

"There won’t be my shadow."

"And there won’t be any sign of me who you once made it feel like a love."

"Mark my word!!!"

Why is it running inside my head? Why? It has been fucking years then why now? Why is she still messing with my head with just a single glimpse of her? Why? , James thought.

"Get the fucking out of my head!!!! I don’t need you!!!’ I don’t need anyone as long as I can have my brother acknowledge me. I don’t need anything!!!! Go away!!! Get the fucking mess out of my head!!!"" he kept on shouting on an empty beach.

"She is making some changes inside my mind once she tries to do it with me. No, I can’t let it happen. I can’t let it be my weakness. I could never. I have to stop it before it eats me up from inside. James, you need to stop. Yeah James you need to fucking stop thos.!!!!!"

"Love is dangerous!!!"

"These feelings are like slave."

It will pull you to a place where someone will order you around. It will make you behave like a dog as if someone put a shackle on your neck and pulled it to act like a dog licking their foot, he thought.

"Stop it!!!!!"

"Yeah I need to concentrate on Aaron. I need to stop him loving that trash bitch. Yeah this is why I came here and nothing else and I need to act on that ." he said and started coming out of the beach.

When he saw the girl who made him run around like a dog. Now she was standing right in front of his eyes while he froze in place as if someone made him toe in a tight row which he even can’t get away from.

"Long time no see"
