TRUTH HURTS

I'm sorry... He apologized but she instead disconnected the call.

EAGLE'S POV

I know this would be hard for her to take in I just hope that she pulls through. Family betrayal is one hell of a thing that could ever happen to someone. I hope she'll be fine.

Nalani... Xi called looking sad.

Xi...

I know you're hurting right now so why don't you let it out? It'll help you. He tried to reason with her.

Let it out, Xi? My own family members planned the death of my parents and you think I just need to blow off some steam? I asked in a low tone but my voice held anger.

Relax, please...

Okay, I'll relax but the truth is that I can't face Grandpa, I can't face Dave either and neither can I go back to the organization, It might not end well for those who are there considering how I'm feeling. She explained as tears streamed down her eyes.

So what are you going to do now?

I want to be left alone, I just need some space, so take care of my Grandpa and Dave in my absence Xi, Can I trust you with that?

Yeah, you can. I responded firmly. I really don't know why all of this keeps happening to her, She's a good person and yet the worst things have been happening to her.

I'll drop you off here please, Take the gun in the back of your chair and call any of my men to accompany you to my Grandpa's place.

Okay, I responded doing as she said. I felt awfully sorry for her but what can I do? She needs this space to clear her head and I'll be a patient friend because she needs me now more than ever and I can't risk letting her down. I stepped out of the car and watched her drive off, I had no idea on where she was going but I hoped she'd calm down and plan her next move properly.

BACK AT BROOKS CORP

You're back, how did it go? Leo asked.

Look my head's all messed up. I don't understand anything right now, I think I'll need space to think clearly.

Space? Asked Liam. Do you have any idea what that woman did for you? She placed her own life on the line for revenge, she went berserk when you had the accident and found out you were not going to wake up for a very long time. Nalani was a shadow of her own self because of you. I don't care if you've lost your memory, Logan, but you see that woman? She's one in a million and every man would not hesitate to take her away from you if she permits. I bet you! He spat as a matter of fact.

I agree with Liam. Added Leo, I'm even surprised by her calm reaction to everything that happened. She never ceases to amaze me.

But... Before I could speak Liam's phone started ringing.

Hello?

Liam, I don't know why but you and Leo are the only ones I can count on since Logan and Siren are no longer together. Something happened and I'm worried about Nalani.

What happened? Liam asked standing on his feet.

It's a long story but her relatives are the reason for her parent's death. She's not thinking straight. She asked for space but I'm worried. Please do something! He pleaded.

Where is she?

I honestly don't know, she dropped me off along the way and drove off.

Shit! He cursed raking his hands through his hair. Track her and get back to me. I said and disconnected the call.

What happened asked Leo.

She's in code blue, She found out something really bad about her parent's death and now she's asking for space.

Something like what? Leo asked.

Her relatives killed her parents that's all I know.

Fuck! It's that bad? I'm coming with you he said waking up to follow him.

Where are you both running off to? Logan asked confused who's that important?

Nalani is that important!! They said in unison.

Since you're stuck with your memory loss leave us help her. It's the least we can do after everything that she's done for you. She needs us before she does something drastic.

After contemplating for a bit he spoke before his friends could leave. Wait! I'll go look for her it's the only way to make her feel better. I just feel she'll be hostile towards you two now. Let me fix this myself by being there for her. He explained surprising his friends.

Well, no thanks! If you're just doing this to save your ego then stay here she doesn't need you! Said Liam.

For fuck sake can you just listen? I know I don't remember anything but my heart seems to know her more than my head right now. That's why I easily believed everything she said. I know how it feels to be forgotten, I've been there before and I can only imagine what she went through last night. So please give me a chance to help her. He pleaded with his friends.

Are you sure? Asked Leo

Yes, I am. So please can you let me help her? He asked with pleading eyes.

Okay, you have this one chance to make things right.

Where's she?

We don't know yet... Liam said as his phone beeped.

It was Xi sending the location.

She's at the graveyard. South, the same place your parents were buried.

Okay, I'll go there now. He said picking up his keys.

Okay, they responded. They just hoped he could help her at this point where she needs him the most.

A few minutes later he arrived there and started walking in, not long enough he saw her sitting on the ground. It pained him to see her like that. It was something he couldn't explain, his heart knew her so well. He watched her yell in agony as he slowly approached her cautiously.

What are you doing here?? Her voice startled him when he was a few meters close to her.

The book is drawing to an end. Will you miss it?... Let me know in the paragraph comments
