"You know, Song Yenay, you are ripping my heart out of me right now and then saying that I should live my life. Can you live your life when your heart won't be beating inside you? If you know then please tell me how?"
Jacob Smith said with a low and hurtful voice and that made her clench shut her eyes. Yes, her heart broke some more. More tears rolled down from her eyes but she tried to put some logic in his head again.
"No, Jacob. Don't use those flattery words with me. No, I don't trust them. You know that what I am saying is correct, Jacob. This is the only right way to choose for the people who love us from the bottom of their hearts. They care for us and always do their best for us."
"No. I don't know, Song Yenay. All I know is that right now you are breaking my heart and I won't be able to live my life if you won't be part of my life. If you are going to back down now then there is no way of coming back from it."
Those words created a hole in her heart. It broke her from within. The conviction in those words from the depth of his heart terrified her to no end. Her whole existence shook like a dried leaf.
She backed out a little bit before she could go away from him but Jacob saw she was going away from him and something urged him to keep her near him… to let her breath in the same air as him.
He held her arm, pulling her near him, eyes roaming on her face out of desperation.
"I am sorry."
She blurted out seeing him so close to herself and looking at her so intensely like he could see her soul within her eyes. Though he doesn't need to see her to see her soul.
It was enough for him to breathe in the same air and know what she was feeling.
"For god's sake stop saying sorry."
He snapped back at her with irritation and she flushed with that tone . He had enough sorry from her. Now he wanted to get something from her and that was the truth of her feelings for him. .
"Does that mean you are giving up on me finally?"
His eyes were dark now and it was the finality of their relationship status.
"Yes, because this is what is the correct thing to do and I know with time you will be able to forget me and move on with your life. It is just a matter of time."
"What the fuck do you know about right and wrong, Song Yenay? What the fuck do you know about time? How the hell do you know I will be able to move on? How can you guarantee that I will find someone better than you?"
Jacob Smith snarled at her. He pulled her more towards his body and held her other arm with his other hand tightly.
"You think you will be able to heal from this, Song Yenay?"
He forced his hold on her, his nails almost digging into her soft skin. He waited but all he heard was silence.
"SONG YENAY, SPEAK UP!"
He shouted at her to hear her response when he breathed in her negativity.
"No, I don't know anything about right and wrong. I don't know about time and healing but all I know is you will be safe out there somewhere."
As Song Yenay whispered her answer, she saw the darkest emotion in Jacob's eyes and the next second he pulled her into him.
"You think if I will not be with you then I will be safe somewhere out there? What do you know about me, Song Yenay?"
He moved closer to her and the next second he sealed her lips with his kissing her senseless until she held onto his shirt for her dear life.
But even when he felt she was holding on to him, he ate her lips so intensely that she started to melt into that kiss. Eventually, a heartbreaking whimper came out of her mouth and he put his forehead on her.
"Do you think you will have this kind of chemistry with someone else? Do you think someone else will kiss you so intensely that would make you melt in that kiss? Do you think you will love your husband like this ever?"
"No, I don't know but all I know is this is the best decision for everyone!"
"No, this is the best decision only for your parents because today they will not get insulted by you coming with me. But think about tomorrow when you will live a life where your heart will never be involved. You will never be happy in that relationship then how will your parents live happily?"
He said and left her arms giving it a slight push in anger that made her collapse on the floor. But seeing her like that he immediately ran near her and held her in his embrace while kneeling in front of her.
Her eyes fluttered open with his act of holding her and realisation hit her. She thought about the fact that she was yet to tell him that she loved only him in this life.
She was yet to bask in the love he had for her in his heart, she was yet to get the chance to sleep in those strong arms not caring about her tomorrows and wake up in the same arms with the smile of being closer to him.
She thought that she wanted to do everything but only with him. But before she could say something to him, he moved back sitting next to her.
"Have you ever thought about how you will be able to hug your husband if you will think about me? Will you be able to give your everything to your husband if all your heart will have me in it?"
His voice was sharp and it was piercing through her heart.
"Have you ever thought about what you are missing in your life by denying me right now? I just don't want to see you ever again!"
Saying that he got up from the floor and with few strides reached the door. But before he left the room, he turned back and looked at her miserable state again.
"I love you, Song Yenay. I love only you and don't think that I can ever feel that feeling for anyone else other than you. It's only you and I know that you too feel the same for me. But the last decision will be yours."
As he said it, he turned around to leave the room but before his hand could open the latch he stopped for a few moments there. His heart wasn't ready to leave the room yet. No, his heart wasn't ready to leave his heartbeat behind.
But eventually he made up his mind and told him he needed to go away from her as much as he can and then if possible he will stay and if not then he will die without letting her know about it.
He held the door knob, losing trust in his hope, he turned the knob but before he could step out something happened that shocked him to death.
Song Yenay reached him and hugged him from behind in a tight grip.
"I love you, Jacob. I love only you. Please take me with you. Please, take me away from all this. I can't handle this anymore. I love you."
That day love won the fight against all odds and it continued to win until Jacob went into that accident and threatened the existence of all three of them.
What Song Yenay was supposed to do was run back to her parents for help to save her husband and her daughter…Even if she had to sacrifice her life for their life. To let love win again.
