The only woman for me

"What did you say to her?" Aldrin barked at Emma.

His rage flared up. The woman had no right to speak to Eisha, to begin with, let alone chase her away. He forgot his manners and grabbed hold of Emma.

"Tell me, what did you do to her?" He questioned.

His voice echoed in the mall grabbing the attention of the people shopping. The men and woman crowded around her, they watched him.

Realizing who Aldrin was, they raised their phones and started recording the argument. Jadon got Aldrin's security team to keep the crowd to keep their distance from him.

"If you don't answer me. I will make sure you rue this day for the rest of your life," Aldrin threatened. His eyes darkened.

Eisha was the light that he needed in his life. She was the only one who saw him and stayed. The way she touched him in the few hours that he knew her was in a way that no one else ever did.

She held her delicately understanding that he could break like everyone else. Unlike the rest of the world that not only don't think he could feel pain but also didn't expect him to have a weakness.

So he couldn't tolerate the fact that some stranger that he just met took it upon herself to chase her away from him.

"I only told her the truth," Emma said firmly. Biting back the fear that he was feeling at that moment. Aldrin scared her. His anger made her shiver.

Aldrin tightened his hold on her hand, his eyes burning through her skin. "What truth would that be?" He inquired.

His mother held his hand and tried to get him off, Emma. Aldrin looked at her once. The look in his eyes challenged her to tempt him at that moment by interfering. Sara halted and released her hold on him.

"She is not meant for you," Emma claimed. She believed it and he should see it too. The plain woman had no place in their world and most certainly not by his side.

She was the only one deserving of the right to stand by his side. Her words caught the words of the crowd, they realized that they were fighting because of a woman.

People started tweeting about it.

"Aldrin has a woman?" The women in the crowd gasped in shock. They had also heard of his problem and thought it was the reason that he left the industry. Because his acting included him getting close to women but that wasn't the case.

They were stunned but didn't forget to post about it on their social media platforms. "Let me make this clear. Eisha is the only woman who will ever be worthy of being by my side," he stated sternly. "I am made for her and only her. She never has to worry about the likes of you because your beauty fades in comparison to hers," he declared.

The people captured his confession on video. "Awwwww," the women let out.

On-screen or off-screen, the man was a romantic and he found a way to warm their hearts and awe them. Emma was tongue-tied when she heard what he had to say, a tear fell down her eyes.

No man had ever spoken to her like that. Coming from the man that she liked so much, it hurt her.

"Who is Eisha?" The people in the crowd asked. They had never heard of such a name. Had she been a famous figure then they would have certainly heard about her.

"She is nothing but a plain woman," Emma spat in anger.

"She is simple, not plain," Aldrin defended immediately. "Simplicity at its finest and it's what makes her beautiful in my eyes. The only woman for me," he said and paused to let his words sink in for her.

He stared at her from top to bottom. The only reason the girl dared to say the things she said was because of her family. Such girls irritated him to the core.

"For her, her first name is enough to get my attention. Can you say the same for you?" He asked her.

The crowd drew their breath. It felt like they had reached the climax of the movie where the hero had lost his heroine and was standing up for her with the villainess. Telling her off and showing her why the heroine was better than her for him.

"You need your family name to get me to notice you. And it makes me pity you," Aldrin added and let her go.

Emma stood there shocked and humiliated. She was hurt, Aldrin had told her what he thought of her, and every word he said pierced her heart. Especially knowing that he was attacking her for the plain girl that he was with.

"Next time before you touch her. Make sure that you come close to her worth. Or face the worst side of me," he threatened. "Jadon, I need her found right now," he ordered and marched away.

His security cleared a path for him from the crowd. The crowd tried to talk to him, asking for autographs, pictures with him, and comments on who Eisha was.

Without intending to, Aldrin drew attention to himself without realizing it. He was so angry that he hadn't noticed what he did or the fact that he had told the whole world he was with a girl named Eisha.

His mind was racing with one thought. How was he going to find her? The girl was a vampire from a different century. She didn't have a phone, no digital imprint that he could use to track her. She was like a ghost and other than her name, he had nothing on her.

It was like looking for a needle in a haystack in the dark. The possibility of him finding her we're close to none, supposed she didn't run across the world in the few minutes that she stepped away from him.

His heart and mind were in chaos about the situation.
