I WILL PROTECT YOU

ARIS'S POV

"I'm all done, we can leave now" I said as I came out of the closet.

"Good thing I'm not too late, I would have missed my chance to see you" I heard a familiar voice said and I frowned.

Is he here ?

Finally !

"Nico ?" I called out as I stared at him aghast.

I thought he would never come but he finally did.

"Aris, sorry I'm just showing up now. I just could not bring myself to come here but now I'm free" he replied and I frowned.

What is he talking about ? He is now free ? Was he in bondage before ?

He hasn't showed up all this while and now he finally showed up to tell me this nonsense ?

"You are free ? What do you mean ?" I asked and he chuckled.

"Aris forgive me, let's go back to the way we were before. No ! Let's get married instead huh ?" He asked as he walked towards me staring deep into my eyes.

He was calm and I could feel the sincerity in his voice and a bit of desperation.
