Chapter 39 - Chapter 38

Jason's POV

Lies . It's the thing I hate the most in my life . What do people even get from lying?

But I guess I'm the one of them . I left her all alone when I shouldn't have . I shouldn't have trusted those people. I should have just let it go .

They would never change . But then again I had to believe in them. Why ? Why the fuck ?

"You knew about it didn't you?" I asked Caroline as she looked at me in awe .

"Wh...what are you talking about?" She said, drifting her eyes away.

"Don't try to be innocent now . I know you knew about Amelia . Were you also included in this damn thing Caroline ?" I stated every word clearly . So that she could hear .

"I .. I don't know what you are saying . I..I feel nauseous. I'm gonna sleep ." She stuttered .

"God damn it !" I shouted . Throwing my fist in the wall .

I saw her jumping and closing her eyes in fear .

That day I got a call that my father was terminally ill . That he is in his early stage . If I don't go back , I won't be able to see him again ever .

He is the person I hate the most in my life . He always lied to me for my whole fucking life .

When I reached there, I saw him lying on the bed . With so many drips attached.

No matter how much you hate your family but at this time anyone would break down .

I didn't even have a second thought . The only thing he asked me to do was get married to Caroline and save his business after he is gone .

I didn't want to do that . Any of that . No matter how hard the time was . But I didn't want to lose Amy over anything.

But in the end they leave me with no choice. My brother Hanley, convinced me to do so. They told me it was his last wish .

I didn't have any choice but to accept it . And this was the fucking stupidest thing I ever did in my life .

Had I known they were all lies , I would have just killed them . I wouldn't have even come back to this damn place .

"Caroline , Why ? Why the hell did you do it ?" I broke down. Remembering AMY'S face .

I would have been living so much better . If I didn't have fallen for their Bullshit.

"Because you were dating a god damn underage girl . The rumors went overboard. Then your father went to mine with a marriage proposal to solve the issue. And being your childhood friend I wanted to help you . You were on the wrong path ." She yelled .

"Enough! Who are you guys to decide what I do ? You think of yourself as my childhood friend . What the fuck do you even know about me ?" I hissed. Gripping my hair in frustration.

"Jason , don't forget we had also dated eight years ago . I know many things ." She started proving herself again .

"That was fucking eight years ago Caroline . Now I don't love you anymore . I don't even like you . And for your own information , you know nothing about me ." I hissed in frustration

"What is even so good about that girl ? Why are you so obsessed with her ?" She huffed .

I sighed heavily . " Don't ever talk about her with your shitty mouth again . And the good thing about her is that she is not you ."

I slammed the door on getting out of her room . From the day Caroline started pestering me to live back here . I sensed something was surely up .

Now I know why . She just wanted to hurt Amy . I won't let that happen .

But first things first . I need to get separated from this dumbass bitch .

I still can't forget the scene from the college . When Amelia just fell and clutched me , begging me not to leave her .

I'm such a jerk ! I even made her cry like that again and again .

When I saw her with that boy Travis . I wanted to rip his throat off . But all I could see was Amelia crying because of me .

I hurt her a lot . I don't even know if she wants me anymore or not .

What if she started dating that guy ?

Damn it ! I can't even think about it . Even imagining them being together hurts like hell.

It feels like just a few minutes ago she was mine . She was in my arms . Smiling at me . Cuddling with me on the bed .

And now suddenly everything has been shattered into pieces . The thing , the affection and love we shared was fading away slowly .

What hurts more is that all of it was my fault . And knowing the fact that I could have stopped it from happening is much worse .

I left her . She was still waiting for me. I'm such a damn bastard.
