I have been sitting in my room, checking some documents on my laptop. Something was about to happen, I could sense that. Everything was silent and still for over a week now, which meant that this time, its's going to be something huge. I sighed shutting down the laptop. There is something, that is on my mind for a week now.

Even if the world was burning down, I had to patch up with her. I sighed and rubbed my sore neck muscles, while thinking about what to do now.

Listen to me. ” Sia placed her hands on his wet chest and sighed. Hardin's hands paused, his eyes assessing her expressions. “ I am listening. ” He smiled, pushing Sia's hair behind her ear softly.

    AUTHOR'S POV Sia turned around in the bed, her eyes opening. She did not know when she fell asleep and woke up just now. Yawning, she focused on the figure laying just beside her with his arm draped over her waist protectively. Her hand reached out to brush off his bangs away from his eyes with her fingers gently as he sighed in his sleep. An unconscious smile was tugged up at the corners of Sia's lips. Her thumb slowly drew circles on his cheek with her eyes taking in the sight before her. She had never thought that it was possible for Hardin to love her. It all felt like a lie at first but the sincerity in his eyes and the determination in his voice drove all fear away. Now there was only him and there was only her. Nothing else mattered. Atleast she could try thinking like that but she still had a hard time adjusting to this new thing. She pushed herself off the bed as she grabbed her clothes to wear them.

I said I wil-will stay. ” Sia immediately changed her statement, her cheeks starting to heat up. She had never said I love you to any man before and she felt like she did something out of the world just now. His shocked eyes were making her breath hitch. “ You said something else. ” Hardin's eyes darkened as a smirk tugged up at the corner of his lips. He knew that she confessed to him just now but changed her words instantly after that. She felt awkward but he would definitely hear it from her. One way or another.

The combination was maroon and black. It gave off an eery vibe just like his personality. He pulled her inside and closed the door behind them smoothly with a click. Sia took in the interior of the room. There was a huge king sized bed in the middle with black sheets and maroon duvet and pillows. Sia's eyes conveniently left the bed and stopped at the wall beside it. Her breath hitched when she noticed alot of pictures hanged on the wall. Her pictures. She had never seen them before though.

Sia heaved in a heavy breath before grabbing his hands and pushing them off her arms. She looked in his eyes for a moment before replying in a determined tone. “ I am going to take Emma and I am going to leave from here. I am going to go somewhere far from here. ” Hardin's eyes went wide realising what she was hinting at. She was talking about leaving him. She was telling him that it was over between them. It was over before it even started. “ No. No! You can't do that! ” He growle

Sia's eyes travelled upto meet Hardin's baby blue orbs that were already staring at her with an unrecognizable emotion shining in them. “ I won't cry if you won't cry. ” Emma sniffed after a while and pulled away wiping her eyes with her small hands. Sia grimaced as she averted her eyes back to meet Emma's eyes that painfully reminded her of Emily's eyes. “ I won't cry. ” Sia shook her head as she pushed the tears back, looking at her. Emma pulled her closer once again and sighed out as Sia felt her heart hurting more. She was just a child yet she was like this.
