Ayden 47. NO PAST NIGHT
AYLA PRESENT DAY I have always been so proud of myself whenever I look at my house. It wasn't that big, but it wasn't small either. I spent my mom's insurance money, my small savings, and the cheque my father gave me after graduation on this lease. Why the hell does this seem so little now? It has been five minutes since Steph left, since the moment she looked at Jayden and smirked since Jayden slammed the door in her face and he turned towards me. That's all he did. We were staring at each other till now. I tried to look everywhere but him. I heard him exhale deeply, and he sat on my couch, pulling his hair over his head. "You don't remember me?" He questioned. I shook my head slowly. He shook his head in disbelief. "According to you, when was the first time you heard about me?" He questioned. "When you attended our college for a....." He cursed under his breath. "So for you, the first time we met was when you spill that coffee on my shirt?"
Ayden 48. IN HER ROOM
A FEW YEARS AGO NOTTINGHAM "Why are you here? Didn't you have an appointment with some company's CEO? You had a presentation. What are you doing here? You don't have to come. Jay...," Nothing she said traveled through his ears. His eyes were fixed on the scar she got on her forehead. "It's nothing," she whispered when he moved the few strands of her hair back. "Where else?" He asked sternly. She threw him a scowl even though her eyes were glossy and she was hurting. "Nowhere," She replied. "You should go," She said again, gently pushing him with her hand. He caught her hand to inspect the wounds. He finally released a breath when he found none. "Don't do that." He ordered. "Don't push me away no matter what." She dropped her head, fidgeting with her fingers. "That's not what I am doing." She murmured. "I don't want you to worry. The purpose of your meeting is too big to stop for trivial things like this."
Ayden 49.IN MY ROOM
A FEW YEARS AGO NOTTINGHAM It was 11 PM when she heard the knock on her window. She was so sure she heard that wrong. But the knock came again. She wore her sweater and her night dress and slowly walked towards the window. "Who is there?" She shouted. The first thought is to call her dad. But it hurts her pride to do that. If she had a serial killer behind that closed window, her father would still blame her. She knew that for sure. The knock came again, making her whole body rigid. "Just open the damn door, Surgeon. It's freezing outside." Came a sharp sound from the other end. Her body reacted to the sound even before she could process it. She quickly opened her windows and let the hanging Jayden climb inside. "What are you doing here?" She asked, running back to double-check the door lock. "Wow..there's a lot of pink here." He commented, scanning through her room. She rested her hands on her hips, giving h
Ayden 50. WE DO FIT
PRESENT DAY AYLA "Marmara Deniz (Sea of Marmara)" I whispered. He didn't say anything but stared like he did till now, blankly. "That's the color of your eye," I said. I didn't notice any movement in his face or his eyes, especially his eyes. But something about the way he looked at me changed like he finally grasped the situation. Shit! The situation. In a hurry to escape, I tried to fall back. He held me by the waist again and pulled me to him so that I wouldn't fall off the couch. Now we are closer than before, my hand clutching his shirt, and his heart, beating fast beneath them. Once again, silence engulfed us. We simply stared at each other without saying a word. I somehow managed to find the courage to look at him again. His gaze slowly traveled down to my lips. If he was gonna kiss me right now, I'll not protest. Of course, I will freak out. But I'll save that for later. But he is doing nothing but simply sta
Ayden 51. NO ONE KNOWS
A FEW YEARS AGONOTTINGHAM "I am not getting it. Why would you meet Nathaniel?" Mason asked for the tenth time. "I didn't meet him. He came to me." "He did because..." "He is Jack's friend. They always come to the house." "The house you live in?" "Yes," She replied, looking exasperated. "And Jack lives at your place because....." "He is my step-brother. And I live at their place." She corrected. "By Jack, you mean.." "Jack Dawson." "Son of..." "Noah Dawson." "Who is your ..." "Yes," She nodded her head, agreeing with him. "My biological father. Is that a problem?" "It is," Mason exclaimed. "You didn't know that Dawsons and Knights are at war since forever?" She shook her head in confusion. "I knew that Jayden and Jack have some misunderstanding, perhaps?" Mason burst into laughter in a sardonic way that made Ayla confused to a whole different level. When Jayden knew th
Ayden 52. TO MY HOUSE
PRESENT DAYAYLA "One minute, I was fine. The other minute, I could feel the tears rushing down my pillow. It hurts when I try to clench my jaw or grind my teeth. The left part of my face hurts, you know, from my head to ear, ear to teeth. 'It's stress,' Blake would say. But it doesn't hurt any less. "I have experienced this kind of pain many times. I would take a pill, and it would go away. But today, when I was lying in my room alone and staring at the ceiling, I wonder, how long I will have to take the pills to make the pain go away. How long I will have to do it alone? "I took out my phone. I found no one, absolutely no one to talk to. I was too angry to talk to Blake. I can't believe he spread a rumour that I got pregnant when my mom died. I can't believe I actually become pregnant at the end. Quinn will be asleep. I am not close to Daisy and Steph to disturb them in the middle of the night. And Yeona has already done a lot for me. "Suddenly, as if
Ayden 53. IN HIS HOUSE
"Why would I go to your house?" I asked him, confused. He shrugged, looking at the traffic before us. "The rain has already stopped." He let the car window down and looked out. "The sky is clear. I think we both need a distraction." "So?" I asked him. "Why don't we go and enjoy the view?" He asked. "What view?" I asked him in return. "Jupiter and his four moons?" "Jupiter!" I exclaimed. "We can see its moons too?" I asked him in wonder. "I have a 16-inch telescope. So I figured you might wanna see it. Why? is that a no to you?" He asked me. Something tells me that he knew the answer. "No, I mean, yes. Evet, it's a big yes to me. I am just confused why you wanted to do that." I told him. "Is I just wanted to not good enough reason?" He questioned, raising his eyebrow. "It is. But you gain nothing out of it." I answered. He smiled at my sentence. "Why do we always have to gain something?" He questioned just like Kemal did ear
Ayden 54. MAKE YOU MINE
AYLA "You did what?" Quinn asked me for the second time. "I went to his house," I told her slowly, looking towards the living room. "To?" "Well, if you ask me why exactly I had gone, I would say for Jupiter." I heard her sigh so loudly that I am sure, she is trying to control her anger. "Even I haven't seen Jupiter, Ayla. Most of the world's population haven't seen that fucking planet, and they are surviving." She yelled from the other end of the line. "You don't understand. It is a one-time opportunity for me." I tried to explain. "Seriously, Ayla? You followed a guy, who is your forgotten ex, to a house so far away that you even doubt there's a single soul in the two kilometres radius to see a fucking planet without informing any of us! Is that what you are telling me right now?" I released a heavy breath. I shouldn't have lifted her call at all. "It sounds worse when you put it like that," I said slowly. "Because it is worse

Ayden 66. SAY YES
AYLA | NOW My hands are clammy. I stared at the road ahead, sitting in Jayden’s fancy car. The speed hit over 70, and when the hood of the car opened without me asking for it, I released a breath of relief. I closed my eyes, my face towards the sky, and the wind swayed my hair. It’s going to be a mess, I’m sure. But I enjoyed this moment. The wind, the freedom, the thud in my chest, the moment of no thoughts, the clarity in my bones, I love everything about this moment. Did I ever think that I would have someone to depend on completely? That’s exactly what I am doing. I am trusting him with my heart, and my body. I am going to take the leap of faith in him, in us, and I hope fate plays in our favour. We entered into a sumptuous upscale street with many apartments and villas here and there. Either side of the road is lined up with maple trees. I bet it looks more beautiful in the daytime. Jayden stopped the car in front of a tower. Of course, it’s a skyscraper, or how else w
Ayden 65. TAKE ME HOME
AYLA | NOW I hugged my diary and wiped my tears. I had something I thought I'd never have: a father figure, a brother, and a man, my man who loved me unconditionally and who protected me."Nothing you do will make him leave you." Henry told her. And somehow I did something that made him leave. But he came back for me. He said that he came back for me six months after he left, which is exactly two months after I woke up, and he saw me in Blake's arms. That must have hurt. He felt betrayed. I think I can finally see his pain. He was ready to give Ayla a chance even though he believed that his father died because of her. His love is incomparable. How did I get that lucky? How did it all go down? For now, I closed the dairy. My body and mind were desperate to see him, see the guy who gave me the world, and nothing about him changed now, even though I didn't remember him. I squealed in joy as I got ready for the office, putting some extra effort into my hair and make-up. I chose a two-p
Ayden 64. HIS LOVE
AYLA | THEN He is crazy. She is going to kill him for sure. He even locked her in the car, went to the department store and bought condoms. Not just one but ten. She will kick him on the bed and lock him in the washroom. Then she will sleep while he begs her to open the door. "I swear, Jayden. If you don't take me home today, I might kill you accidentally." "I am taking you, home." He said so casually without giving a second thought about what his words were doing to her, they were giving her hope which she didn't want. "I am not ready for this." She yelled. "You're more than ready." She was. She is. She knows it. She also knows how addictive his touch can be, how blissful his kisses can be and how peaceful she'll be with him. She will be addicted to happiness. That's what her relationship is with him, pure happiness. That's what makes it more precious and fragile. It can be broken. A month away from turning eighteen Ayla already knows that she wants forever w
Ayden 63. MAKE YOU MINE
AYLA It became hard to breathe. It has been two weeks. Two weeks since the break up. Two weeks since she talked to him, since she received a text from and heard about him. She is the one who left. She is the one who ended. He made that so clear. But it hurts. A part of her wondered if he missed her. A part of her wondered why he didn't call her. Did he move on? Of course, he would. He is Jayden Knight. He can have anyone. He said they were a mistake. Of course, he wouldn't regret this. Ayla on the other hand, felt suffocated. She stared at her phone, waiting for his call, even though she knew she wouldn't change her mind if he did and read their old conversations. When will this year be over? When will she find a new city? There are too many memories everywhere. She didn't realise it till now. But Jayden showed her every place in the city, and kissed her in every corner. Her heart swelled at the thought. How long will it take for the pain to go away? She forgot how she used t
Ayden 62. SHATTERED
JAYDEN | THEN Something changed between them. Ayla became distant again. Ever since she cried in his arms, she started to avoid him. She cried in front of him before without feeling insecure or inferior. It took a lot of time for her to open up. Now, she went back to being reserved again. Jayden was left with a nibbling feeling inside. Something was off. Something was off between them. She kissed him back when he kissed her. It wasn't just the same passion. She said I love you too, when he said, I love you. It wasn't just the same intensity. She didn't pick up the phone after the third ring or the fourth like she usually does. She barely replied to his messages. Her windows weren't opened anymore. Jayden stood, outside her house, staring at her dark room, not knowing where it all went wrong. He called her. It was 11 PM. She has been staying late for a year now. Sometimes they talked until 3 AM. She was online. But his messages were left unread. He lost it then. Gritting h
Ayden 61. DATE
AYLA Blake joined me for the morning run today. "So?" He asked, panting. "You are going on a date with your boss. You are one lucky girl." I laughed at his words. "I feel like I am a character in a novel." "I hope it's a novel full of smut." I punched him in the stomach. He acted like he couldn't breathe and did a fake cry, holding his stomach. If I didn't know him better, I would have trusted he was really in pain. "I haven't forgiven you yet," I yelled at him and ran faster. He joined me soon. "I am really happy for you." He says. "Need help with what are you going to wear?" I shook my head, "It's weird to take your help for a date with Jayden. Given, you are enemies and all." "When can we move past that?" He asked me with a hope. "When I know the full story." "He became yours. Do you still need to know the full story?" I nod my head. "It is my story. I had to know." "Good to know that you are accepting your past while moving forward in presen
Ayden 60. A HOPE OF FUTURE
AYLA PRESENT | By this time in my life, I knew so many things about Jayden. They are more than I thought I would. Right now, he is angry. It is pure rage mixed with something else that became hard to comprehend for me. Is it hurt, pain or just love? "No, I left you at your father's mercy." His words came out as a whisper with a heavy tone as though it was hurting him to talk with me. "I don't understand," I told him, confused. I came to Steph's cabin hoping to see him. A million thoughts ran in my head about how I would greet him after the kiss. I tried hard not to blush because he would grin like a devil. But never did I imagine, it would be like this. "Of course, because you don't remember." That's all it took for him to break me, a simple and stupid accusation. He was walking out without even looking back after throwing those few sharp words at me, and I started to realise the effect he had on me. I thought he was
Ayden 59. HOW CAN I GO BACK?
AYLA A FEW YEARS AGO Her bedside clock read 11:45 PM. Her mom would never let her use her phone at that time. After sitting in the same position for an hour and a half, she got up slowly. A few times, Evelyn knocked at her door. But she ignored it. The knock came again, making her sigh. After all, it's not Evelyn's fault. She held an ice pack in her hand when Ayla opened the door. "I am sorry for what happened." She told her, handing over the ice pack. "You did nothing," Ayla said, taking the ice pack. "Thank you." She said in her hoarse tone. Then, Evelyn did the most unexpected thing. She took a strand of hair to the back of her ear in a motherly way. "You're a good girl, Ayla. I know that. Eda has raised you well. It's just your dad hated her. And he hates the knights. We had a long rivalry with them, and it made him furious. Otherwise, your dad wouldn't have. .." "He has never been my dad, Evelyn. Do not try to justify what he did. He slapped me because
Ayden 58. NOTHING IS GOOD
Her house was situated at the end of the street. She could see the beautiful gardens perched on the lawn of each mansion she has passed by. 'I could do it,' she thought. Just another minute and she will be inside her room, and he can't hurt her, or at least she thought he couldn't. His truck is still after her, following her into the house. Jack just came out of the house looking at her suspiciously. His gaze shifted to Nathaniel who shortly followed her. Nathaniel is taller than Jack but not as tall as Jayden. He has a muscled body and if something happens, Ayla was sure that would happen, she can't outdo him. He looked dangerous, and he got big hands. Something about that terrified her evenmore. She saw him leaning towards Jack and whispering something, and Jack looked at her with spite in his eyes a second later. * An eerie silence settled over the dinner table. Something is off or it's her fear of Na
