Do you still love him...

Daniel entered the house, with a fingerprint lock, the lock that was only having his fingerprint as key, as he came in, he saw the house that had all his and his families memory was as dark as his heart now, with no light... no hope... are any sweetness left, as he passed the entrance to the living room, he saw a shabby tinny woman sitting in a corner of the couch, with some kind of book in her hands, she was messy, with ragged clothes, and mumbling, seeing something in those books that were scattered around her... When she heard footsteps, she lifted her head and looked at the person who was coming in the mere light, She was agitated by seeing the person who came... Who else can come here expect him, as she thought.....

The lady on the couch smiled bitterly, Daniel walked to the couch sat straight opposite her and said

"Hello Mother"

Abel looked angrily at him and said

"Why don't you kill me, what pleasure you get by keeping me here as a prisoner..."

Daniel smiled... Which was not a smile, it was a warning if it was his enemy, but he looked at her and said

"Even you should have planned to kill Megan, than planning to kill our child, break our relationship, then even tried to trade her to that asshole, Franklin, to suffer all her life..."

"But that did happen right, you let me go... I will go to Jovel, and never come back"

"Jovel... Your sweet son, he said to me before five years, that if I let him marry his girl Jessica, he will take her and leave this place and will never come back... So technically you can't go to him, and big brothers don't want you either"

"It's all your doing... You manipulated them by saying I am a psychopath and I will be a threat to people around me, you even proved that I will hurt anyone who is happy, and left me here to live alone... You didn't even allow me to say your Dad, my last goodbye, I miss him so much"

"We both are going through the same torture mother, even I didn't get to say my bye to my wife, past five years... Your living here alone, I am outside this house, though I sit in a room full of people... I feel lonely without her"

"So you are torturing me like this, if that Megan comes back will you release me"

Daniel smiled bitterly...

"She's back Mother, but she as a boyfriend, I lost her totally today to another guy... It's all because of you three, at least you are safe in your house... But your brother and niece are enjoying everyday torture as a part of their lives"

"Daniel... What did you do to Becka and your uncle, why don't you tell... How many ever times I have asked"

"You want to know... Wait, mother"

He pulled out a pen drive from his pocket, plugged into the tv and switched it on...

Abel was so scared to see Jonhson...

"Daniel...Daniel... What place is this, where have you kept your uncle..."

Daniel sneered and said

"A mental hospital in T city, he is treated for his illness"

"Daniel you're gone overboard... My brother is all fine, he not sick"

"You can't prove that you are not sick, mother, how will you prove your brother is not sick... He's treated for his stable mental health, he's given an electric shock every day, and your darling Becka, she married"

"What she's married... But to whom, did you marry her, and torture her every day"

"Mother, you have not bought up such a bad person ok... I just helped her marry Franklin Ben"

"What are you saying, Daniel... He's a maniac, how can you be so cruel to marry her to that beast, oh no...oh no... What has happened, Daniel let them go please, it was our mistake to ruin your life with Megan, but she's not the right girl for you"

"You still think she's not the perfect girl for me... Megan is a top enterpriser now, She is so capable that I am doing business with her, but still, she's not good enough for you"

"You said, she was with her boyfriend... Then you have to think if she had loved you truly, will she move on so soon, while you tutoring your own family like this, think, Daniel, she has always played with your feelings... Nothing more"

Daniel smiled and clapped his hands and said

"You are really something mother, even in this situation you're trying to manipulate me against Megan, how much you hate her... I love her more than your hatred... So, you will stay here happily for the rest of your life, without anyone on your side, that's what a psychopath like you deserve"

As he said, he got up and walks to the Attic... Ignoring Abel's scolding...When he entered the Attic, he had a glare vision of him and Megan in this place, running around, catching each other in the arms, cuddling to sleep, the love moments... Tear clouded his eyes, now she was with someone else, maybe, cuddling him to sleep, only that thought of Megan being in someone else's arm made Daniel's blood boil... He got up from the bed where he was sitting with Megan's doll in his hands, threw it away, and walked out, closed the door to the balcony, with his fingerprint, came to see Abel sitting there again mumbling, seeing the photos, it was the photos of them... He smiled at her and walked out without even saying goodbye.

As he reached down, he remembered he was dropped by Eric, he had no car, only then did he try to see his bike, parked in the parking lot. Daniel called the security for keys, the guard rushed with keys, and said

"Sir it's been regularly cleaned, the tank is full, and here is the key"

"Thank you"

Daniel said and started his bike, it has been a few years since he has used this bike, he drove aimlessly, but when he stopped he was in front of the sunrise resort apartment... He had no idea how did he come here... Daniel shook his head thinking, why can't I forget Megan, and move on like her, why am I clinging to her, as he thought, he got down the bike and walked to the rough road to the lakeside, where he had come with Megan... When he reached there, what surprised him the most was MEGAN...

Megan sat there alone, with her hair floating in the cool breeze, her thin white nightgown, that was so seductive, but not too reliving, her face that was so beautiful without any make-up, she looked so mature like lady, all her childishness as disappeared in her face... But still looked so pure and innocent, Megan sat there hugging her legs to her chest, looking at water, that had the reflection of the moon... With few ripples as the breeze blew, Daniel didn't want to disturb her, he also sat far from her, between the bushes, to avoid her from seeing him, Megan had no idea that she was been watched, she slowly pulled out her mobile, and opened the phone, it's was her old phone, the photo album had the pics of Daniel... As she saw she thought...

"Why do you haunt me like this even after so many years... Why can't I accept the happiness that stands in front of me... Danny, why should I love you so much... That anything other than you is worthless"

Daniel didn't know what Megan was seeing on her phone from far, he only thought she was just looking at something random, he also sat there watching her, without moving, while Megan put out her mobile and stood up and turned to walk back, Daniel followed her, still, she went up, he walked back leaned on his bike, stood to see... Megan walk out to the balcony alone, with a bottle and a glass of red wine, he smiled... So she wants to get drank, he walked up after he saw her swaged to her room, Daniel opened the door with his fingerprint, and when he reached their room, he saw Megan sitting on her bed hugging her life-size teddy bear, while others slept in guest rooms, Daniel was happy, that Edward was not in Megan's room, but when saw Megan punching the bear, he wanted to laugh, he didn't know what she was mumbling and punching that poor teddy.

When Daniel walked near Megan, she was so drunk, he sat next to her asked

"Why are punching that poor guy"

"He's not the poor guy, I am... He's an asshole"

Daniel controlled his laugh, she was so cute, looked like a small child, throwing tantrums

"But who's he..."

"It's that Daniel Reid..."

Daniel was chocked on his own saliva, when he heard the doll that Megan was punching was him so he confronted her

"Why do you want to hit him...what did he do to you"

"He is very mean, he did very bad things to me, I want to kill him by punching on his face"

Daniel was again shocked... Want to kill him...

"But what bad thing he did..."

"He's bad... That's all ok, what he did, I will not tell, you go, hai wait... wait... Who are you in my room, how did you come here, you must be a fairy... But where are your wings, and does a fairy have this strong seductive body... Are you girl fairy or boy fairy..."

Daniel laughed at her comment, he was happy that she felt, he was strong and seductive, while again Megan said,

"But you look like Daniel Reid, are you, Daniel Reid, if it's you, I am going to kill you, so you go get me a sharp knife...ok"

"You want me to get a knife to kill me"

"Yes... Can't you understand simple English... What kind of CEO your, you go get me a knife so I can kill you, Daniel Reid"

Daniel smiled, at a chattering mouth... She was blabbering whatever slipped from her head... He wanted to shut that mouth of hers...but when he thought Megan wanted to kill him, he wanted to know why, so...

"Ok I will get you a knife if you tell me, why do you want to kill me"

"Because you are always mean to me. You trust your mother more than me... She killed our child but still, you believed her, and you didn't even propose me...."

She started crying loudly... Daniel didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he just tugged her hand and hugged her... Megan snuggled into his warm embrace and calmed down, when Daniel lifted her face to look at the tear-filled face, Megan pouted her lips and went close to Daniel... Daniel waited for her lips to touch his, when she slid down to his lap, Daniel shook his head, laid Megan properly on the bed... Wiped her face with a wet towel from the bathroom, then tucked her in, and asked

"Do you still love Daniel Reid.. Megan"

But there was no answer, only her steady breathing of Megan was heard, Daniel got up from the bed, kissed her forehead and said

"Goodnight, Meg, I love you "

when he was about to turn and walk out, suddenly there was a tug on the corner of his shirt, Daniel turned to see, was she awake but, Megan was in a deep sleep, but holding the corner of his shirt, when he bent down to free it, heard her say

"Goodnight Danny... I love you too"

Daniel was so happy... He almost collapsed for a moment...
