Chereads / Meant To Be Hers / Chapter 32 - Ry...

Chapter 32 - Ry...

Felicia walked out of the penthouse.

Ryan fell on his knees, he broke down in front of her.

He buried his face in his palms and bawled out loud.

" Ahhhhhhhh!" He howled making Mellina flinch.

" What did I ever do to deserve such a life?! What did I do?" He again yelled in a screechy voice, his throat was dry.

Mellina saw metal melting into lava. She thought it was dangerous for her to even console him because the rage he had in his voice burned her already.

But...

But she couldn't slip away just like that. It hurt her to see him in that state, she saw his life in minutes.

He is hiding from his own family, he doesn't have any power in his life because one or the other is trying to control his life.

She kneeled in front of her.

She touched his shoulder. He looked up at her with red eyes.

" Why is my life like this? Everybody thinks I live the life of Riley because I have money, fame, looks but all I wish for is a little bit of peace and a small amount of happiness. Am I not worthy enough to at least gain a little bit?" He asked like a kid.

The vulnerability was analogous to an alive fish in the land without water. He throbbed in agony.

Consoling was not a cuppa tea for her. But she tried...

" Nothing in this world is permanent! There will be a day when you will be out of this distressing life. That time you will live yours to the fullest. Believe me, when I say this, even I had undergone alike situations! All you have to do defend yourself and stay strong. Don't give up, Change is the only constant!" Mellina said as she laced her fingers in his soft silky hair.

" I believed it once! But I am not a fool to believe it again!" He said not looking at her. There was no arrogance in his words but inability!

" You didn't! You just gave up in the middle! Life is like seasons, you are in the winter waiting for summer, and one day it has to come. It will give you warmth!" She consoled him.

" Maybe My life is a polar region! They are always cold!" He said with a bitter smile.

" Do you need a drink?" She asked as he was beyond the stage where she could console and she knows only alcohol could.

He didn't speak, she dragged him to the bar in the penthouse.

If she had only known! She wouldn't have asked him to drink.

While was searching for the drink and glasses Vivaan called her.

" Hey, bro!"

" Mel! Are you with Ry?"

" Yeah, bro. I am here with him"

" Oh, okay! I tried his phone but he didn't pick it, that's why... Is he alright?"

" I don't think he is! Just now Mrs. Parker left from here, she created a mess seeing me and him. There was a depressing argument between so, he is... You know in a vulnerable state!" She said with a sigh, cleaning the glass.

" Oh, shit! Okay, I will come there... " He was interrupted.

" Bro, I think I can handle this. You must take a rest. You looked exhausted. Don't worry, I can handle him. He will be fine!" Mellina said staring at Ryan who sat on the stool his head hung down.

" You sure? Even though I hate to say this, but he is very sensitive. Can you manage?" He doubted.

" Don't worry bro, I know I can!"

" I can trust you, right?" He asked because he really trusted her.

" Yeah, You can! I swear on my life, I can take care of him!"

" Okay, Take care of you too!"

" Yup, you too! Good night"

She poured the Voda in the glass it bubbled up. She gave him the strongest Vodka.

He gulped it in a go. She poured again, when he was about to gulp it again, she stopped him.

" Slow down!" She whispered.

But that didn't do anything because he gulped it again, she hardly sipped it, and here he has finished his second round already.

When she was about to sip it again, she heard a crashing sound.

" Ahhh!" He crashed his glass on the wall with a loud grunt.

Mellina Flinched in the unexpected blow.

Even before she could realize what was happening, he gulped down the whole Vodka bottle in a go.

Is he a human? It was the first question that rose in her.

He trashed the glass bottle on the counter. The glass broke into pieces and flew in the air.

In a reflexive mode, Mellina closed her eyes. Thank god, it saved her vision.

But the largest piece scratched her face just above her right eyebrow.

It was not a big yet scratch.

When she touched the area, she felt the blood on her fingers.

But there was no time to care about the little scratch.

Because...

Ryan fell on his knees with a loud cry.

Getting frightened she rushed towards Ryan only to see him having a piece of glass on his wrist.

" Ryan! What the f*ck are you doing?" She tried to grab it from him. Successfully she did it but in the process, she scratched her hand, not a big one though.

" I am going to kill myself!" He yelled like a beast, it really did something to her.

" Why?" She asked as she hugged him to restrict him from any other actions.

" Why should I live? I killed her didn't I?" He cried on her chest.

For the first time ever he has ever shown his vulnerability except for Vivaan.

" You didn't kill her Ryan! It was not your fault, one or the other way she would have died!" She said with tears, caressing his hair.

" No, I killed her! I killed her, she asked me to take me with her. But I... But I was selfish! When I knew her parents weren't there I should have..."

" Ry..." That stopped him.
