“What did you notice?” Lia asked.
“The car was following me. At first, I was scared, but I gathered up all the courage in me and continued moving.
“All of a sudden, the car stopped, and the two men walked; they were dressed in black.
“I recognize them as bodyguards since we also have
“When I saw that these two were after me, I tried to run, but it was too late because the two had already held my hand.
“I tried to scream, but they covered my mouth and dragged me to the car.
“I met a woman there, looking at the resemblance on her face.
“I know that she is Atlas mom. I sign in, relieved, thinking I’m safe.
“She brought out my picture and smile.
“You are Alora, “she asked me.
“Yes ma’am!” I answered with a smile
“You are the one who wants to ruin my son’s life with your low life.
“She said, which made me sad, ,Why do rich people h@ťě the poor a lot? I thought.
“She brought a check for $5 billion and placed it in my hand.
“What is this, ma’am?” I asked, not understanding what she was trying to do.
“I know why you are after my son, but let me make one thing clear.
“I will never approve your relationship with him.
“Take that money and stay away from him, “she said.
“I smile and return the check back to her.
“You are wrong about something. I didn’t fall in love with Atlas because of his wealth.
“I fall in love with him because I can’t leave without him.
“I love him a lot, and nothing can buy my love. “I told her mother that day and tried to get down in anger.
“But she locked the door.
“I’m not done talking. I’m quite impressed by you, “she said.
“Why don’t you ask Atlas to leave me? If he does, then I will stay away from him, “Alora said.
“You think I have not tried; the fool won’t leave you. I’m not doing this because I want to
“Please stay away from him; he won’t, and that will destroy him.
“Not only him, but our family.His mother is looking pitiful,
“What do you mean, ma’am?” Alora asked
“Atlas is getting engaged, she said.
“Making me laugh, she stared at me.
“She asked if what she said was funny.
“No, ma’am! but the Atlas I know isn’t getting engaged, I said to her that day.
“If you truly love him, did you notice his mood yesterday?” The woman asked
“Yes! I said
“And you notice that he isn’t in school today, she asked again.
“Yes!” I said
“His father didn’t allow him to come to school since he didn’t want to get engaged.
“And our family business is not going well; in order to protect it from going bankrupt, we need this business marriage,” she said.
“So you are suggesting I leave him. If I do, do you think he will stop thinking about me?
“Don’t you think you should value your son’s happiness more than anything?” Alora said getting angry.
“You are not the one who will tell me that. I love my son a lot, and that’s why I’m doing this for him.
“Because if he doesn’t accept this, his father is going to make his life miserable.” Atlas’s mother shouted
She brought out her phone and showed the picture of Atlas to Alora.
Alora gasped when he saw the bruises on his face and his body.
“Who did this do to him?” Alora asked
“His father “His mother said
“And if he doesn’t accept this, his father is going to do something worse than this to him.” His mother said sadly.
“Please, I’m begging you, stay away from him. His mother pleaded that day with her two hand folded together.
“Out of pity and out of love I have for Atlas, it is true that I love him, but I can’t watch him suffer.
“And I have it in mind that when he comes to school the next day, I will explain things to him about who I am, so I told her I would stay away from him.
“She asked me to take the check and told me that the check was for her to show how happy and thankful she was for me.
“I declined it again and took my bag so that I could take my leave.
“But she held my hand in tears. I collected the check with the thought that the next day I’m going to return it to Atlas.
“And I got out of the car. I headed home that day with a heavy heart.
“My mind wasn’t in the right state, and I was devastated.
“That’s why I don’t want to fall in love, but no one can stop the heart from beating.
“The next day, I woke up early, took my bath and went to school.
“But when I got to school, he hadn’t arrived, so I stayed in the corridor, looking at the school gate.
“When I saw his car drive in, I was so happy that I couldn’t wait.
“I ran downstairs to meet him. I waited for him to park the car.
“I smiled at him when I saw him getting down, but what he used to return it, Make the smile face away.
“He walked past me, ignoring my presence.
“I felt hurt, but I thought maybe because of what he was going through, that was why he was giving me attitude.
“I called his name, and he stopped .
“Are you okay?” I asked him, putting my hand on his shoulder, but he pushed me away.
“I was so surprised. I looked into his eyes.
“What is going on?” I asked
“He look at me with hatred before he started talking
“Is that how cheap you are? How could you do that, Alora? How could you?” Atlas asked me in tears.
“That was the first time I’m seeing tears in his eyes
“What do you mean?” I asked because I was lost. I don’t know what he was talking about.
“He brought his phone and showed me the picture of his mom, and I
“When I collect the check from her?
“I tried to talk to him, but he shut me up.
“I don’t know you could choose money over our relationship.
“If you need money, you should have told me instead of selling off my love for you, “Atlas said that day.
“I was already in tears. I don’t know what his mother told him.
“Can you hear me out?” I asked him that day, trying to calm him down.
“But he said he didn’t want to see me around him, and he showed me his finger.
“Making the engagement ring obvious.
““It’s over between us. Alora “That’s what he said to me last day, “Alora said.
“Do you try to explain to him after that day?” Lia asked
”I tried to, but Mia doesn’t give me a chance to, and he doesn’t want to see me either.
“So I give up explaining things to him if he doesn’t trust me and thinks I can actually do that.
“Then that’s not love, “Alora said.
“You can’t say that you don’t know what his mother told him”, Lia said.
“No matter what his mother told him, he should have given me a chance to talk that day.
“Do you know what happened after that? When he saw me coming to school in my car,
“He asked if use the money his mother gave me to buy the car. “Alora said
“You have a fault as well; you should have explained who you are to him, “Lia said.
Alora looks into Lia’s eyes.
“If you are in my shoe what would you do? Alora asked.
