Were you mine? The end
" NOOOOOO! " Jake flung himself forward trying to put himself between Lea and the bullet but it was too late. The bullet hit her right on point blank. She fell right in front of his eyes,blood gushing out like a crimson fountain. " LEAAAAAA!!! "Jake's voice broke with the sheer intensity of his scream as he ripped his white shirt and pressed it over her forehead. " CALL FOR AN AMBULANCE! NOW!!! " He barked, desperately clinging onto Lea's body as Kai grabbed his shoulder and began to whimper. " It's alright, baby. Don't worry. Mommy will be fine. " Jake could barely hold onto his child as his hands started to tremble. Mercy fell down on her knees, probably the only one whose rationale was still working. She closed Lea's lifeless eyes as her body whacked with tremors as she cried.Lea was no more. It was instant death. " Mercy! What are you doing? " Jake shoved her hand away from Lea's body. " Somebody please call an ambulance! " He kept screaming as Kai's cries reached the breaking po
Were you mine? Life goes on
A month after Lea's death - Jake stood in front of Lea's grave, holding onto the bouquet that he had brought. He had her favourite box of chocolate, custom made by the old baker lady back in their home town. He brought her flowers everyday after seeing Kai off at his daycare. He spent the rest of his day talking to her before going back to picking Kai up again. He brought her all the things he had promised to get her one day when they were little. He was trying to give her everything he always wanted to give her but never really could. Today was no different. As if Lea's death wasn't enough of a blow, after the postmortem Jake was told that Lea was pregnant with their second child. It didn't make things any easier only driving another dagger through Jake's heart. Perhaps it was just because Kai existed that he could move forward.He didn't want to but he had to for the sake of the little guy. With Lea gone, there was no meaning left in this world. All colours were gone. It was o
Were you mine? My everything
Lea's POV***present***He was my everything. My morning sun. My brightest moon. He was the reason I woke up and also the reason I went to sleep. But there was a reason I had to leave him again. It was my choice. I could not drag him down. Not after pushing him to the top. He had worked so hard for what he deserved. Could I not wait for a few more years? Of course I could. That was the only reason I had left without telling him anything, because I knew if I told him, he would leave everything behind and follow me home. I had switched my phone off. Talked to him once or twice and just made up excuses to say goodbye. I had literally cut off all ties with him even though it was killing me from the inside. It was not like it was the first time I was living away from him. But his texts, his voice, those video calls kept me going. But this time was particularly difficult. I was also not keeping very well. Health wise. Perhaps because I was unable to eat properly and would vomit i
Were you mine? Heavy
Lea's POV***snippets from the past.. just a month or two ago***A bag full of broken dreams and a heavy baggage weighing my body and mind down like gravity pulls anything that attempts to fly.I was walking along the seashore.It had been vacated because there was a high tide coming. But the patrols must have missed my little silhouette. With less than five feet tall and a skinny little structure, I must have blended out quite well in the dark backdrop.It was only my silent sobs trickling down in perfect harmony along with the song of the waves that were crashing on the hard rocks.Was it their futile attempt at defying destiny, trying to break through a path that was already blocked? Were they just as naive as me?I have been on cloud nine lately.It was honestly quite surprising for my life to start sorting out so beautifully.Jake and I were like brothers and sisters, raised together by my aunt when our parents passed away.My aunt had taken me in when I lost my whole family in a
Were you mine? Hospital
Author's POV***Let me continue Lea's narration***"What is it, Jake? You look so worried."Jake was sitting in the back seat with his manager. He was fidgeting with his hands and fingers, constantly looking out of the window and then back at his watch."Umm, it's nothing. I just feel worried. Lea is not picking up. "" Lea? The girl from your hometown?" His manager asked, looking at his own watch."It's three in the morning, Jake. This is normally when people are tucked into their beds. "Jake nodded his head."I know. I know Mr. Kimberly. But she isn't at home. She is at my place. She came last night. I had to leave with Rosa before I could even talk to her. Anyway, just ask him to drive fast. Let's just get home.Mr.Kimberly looked at Jake with an expression that was a mixture of concern and regret."Um, Jake. What was your relationship with this girl again? Is she your sister or cousin?"Jake didn't answer. He didn't know the answer either. Technically, she was his foster sister, b
Were you mine? Back
Lea's POV***let me continue the narration***That was the way Jake and Phil met for the first time. There was no way for them to know that they were very intricately connected. In fact, their connection was biological.Phill was Jake's older brother, and Jake was one of his younger siblings. They had a little baby sister, who was at this time a full-fledged teenager. Her name was Mercy.Well, you must be confused because I did tell you guys that Jake's mother died in childbirth and his father was a drunk head. That was, in fact, what we knew. That was what we were told as neighbors. In fact, that was the lie that Jake lived with for most of his life.The truth was that he was the middle child of the rich heiress Elizabeth Rodgers. She had taken in a very wimpy man for her husband because she loved bossing around.She was a very rich and arrogant whore, if I were to be precise. She slept around with other men even after marrying the man of her own choice. No matter how wimpy a guy was
Were you mine? Home
Lea's POV***continuation of the narrative from the past***I had no idea how long I had been out. I was a little baffled, being surrounded by so many people and lying on a hospital bed. But it gradually dawned on me the level of my stupidity.I was so embarrassed that I didn't even clarify when the nurses told me that my handsome boyfriend had brought me in.After a few minutes, I could hear a scuffle outside. It turned out to be Jake. He was having a heated argument with the doctors and the nurses about being sent away last night. Apparently, he was so exhausted that he had overslept and missed the call from the hospital when they were taking me to the operation theater when I was going into cardiac arrest. Luckily, they were able to revive me just in time, but Jake still needed some reassurance. He was so overwhelmed by everything that I put him through, from the moment I landed, that I was feeling guilty.I knew how overworked he was. How could I put him through so much more with
Were you mine? Forbidden
Author's POV***completing Lea's last bit of narration before she takes over her story***Jake was the most clueless guy out there. He had no idea what was going on in a girl's mind, though he was ready to fight the world for her sake.He wasn't very keen on show business. It was Lea's encouragement that pushed him on. When they went riding their bicycles up on the mountain tracks, Lea would often stare at the valley spread in front and wonder aloud how wonderful it must be to be a bird."Why would you want to be a bird? They are so fragile and easy to smash. Like you! Jake would shove her and joke, You should want to be something like an elephant or a lion."Lea would watch him and smile slightly.She would toss him the apple that she was carrying, and as he munched on it, she would say,"I don't need to be a lion or an elephant, silly. You will always be there with me. Protecting me. I just want to be a bird that can roam freely. I want to travel the world without any boundaries. I
