The Kiss

"Please, Adrien, you have to forget about me," I told him again because he didn't reply. He entered and sat on the sofa.

"Talk it out, today. Whatever you want to say" he said slowly.

"Adrian. Whatever happened... Three years back... It's over. Now, I'm over everything. So.. Don't come back in my life, please" I said clearly.

He stood up and went towards the door. I thought he was leaving. But he locked the door instead.

"What the hell! Open the door" I yelled at him.

"Answer me. I loved you still you betrayed me why?" he said and took a step towards me. I took a step backward.

"Why? Why can't you see me in your life?" he said and again stepped forward.

"Why? Why do you say that I betrayed you when you cheated on me?" he was coming forward with every question and I was moving back with the same pace. He was so angry. I could've fainted.

"Why? Why can't I move on like you?" he stepped forward again.

"Why? Why did you do all that, Marie, Why?" he said and was very close. Close because I was stuck between the wall and him.

"S... Step back... Backward" I said with courage.

"I won't today"

"Why are you doing this? Ruining my life once was not enough?" I questioned him, by looking at his bloodshot eyes. They were red because of anger.

"You ruined my life!" he said and shook my shoulders. I was startled.

Suddenly his hands went up to my neck.

"No... No!! Please, Adrian, step away!" I said and started crying. I wanted to go away. His touch was giving me chills. Although I could've just run away, his hands were not so tight, but my body was not listening...

"I can't stay away anymore, Marie" he came and he came closer and kissed me. I was startled. I was losing it... My conscience. With all my courage, I pushed him away.

"You... You are worse than a beast... Adrian... Mark my words... I hate you!!" I said and somehow I managed to open the door and run away.

This was the first time I said those words directly to him. Our relationship was very complicated. So... I knew he would break it. And he did. Now... It's been years. Can I really not go away from my past?

I ran and reached the park. I sat there. I was crying. But somehow I managed myself. Then I thought to go to work. It can only distract me from this mess.

I reached my office. There's still one hour left before this office calls it a day. I don't have any important work. But I did. Some of the work of tomorrow. I hope I forget what happened today till tomorrow.

Why did he do that? He knows... He knows it's just too much. I hate him. I told him today. I wish... I could just disappear... Or he does.

I reached my hotel. I'm happy he left. The door was locked from outside. I entered it. There was a note on the table.

"I heard clearly what you said today, Marie. I don't have any doubts now. I just did that... Because I have lost my mind. I thought... I thought that if you feel the kiss you would get back all the memories.. Memories when we promised to stay together forever.. Memories when we held each other for eternity... I was stupid. Now.. I'm going to leave you forever. That's my promise. You'll never be able to see me again. I hope you live happily. You don't have to know any Adrian now. Your Adrian will be dead for you.

- Adrian"

"What... What... Why... I didn't know what was happening. I was crying. Yes, I was. I wanted him to disappear but now... When he did the same... Why am I crying... Please Adrian… I never wished that you disappeared. I hope you... I hope you break this promise... "

I laid on my bed, half crying. I felt like my world is becoming more… More disastrous. With him... Without him… I couldn't decide. I wanted to go away. But… Now… I don't know what's happening. I wanted the night to end... Please.
