Dawn Xnydyxx Hadley's POV
I wrapped my two arms to Helly's waist. As if I'm hugging the whole world. I managed to stop my tears from falling. Seeing her in this situation brokes me into pieces. But I have to take care of her.
"You don't deserve any of it, Helly. I don't want you to suffer from this too. But I just want you to know, I love you 'till the last dawn."
I love her.
That's what I wanted to shout to the whole world. I want her to know that no matter what happens, no matter what we'll face, I'm always here for her. That is how much I love her and I just want to be with her.
I hugged her and kissed her on her forehead. It's been minutes since we got here. I actually want her to rest but she said she wants to go here.
She tilted her head to have access to my lips. I bowed to her so I could also access her lips. Every kiss that I dripped off, it was all sweet. I made sure of it. I almost stopped when I felt a liquid that had been flowing from her eyes.
I licked her lips so well and as if she's pro to this—well, she really is. Helly half-opened her mouth and welcomed my tongue to it. I held her jaws as the heat I'm feeling is getting intense. I can feel that I'm getting obsessed with this type of her. My right arm was holding her back while hers was being wrapped on my shoulders.
What a good view from the glowing city lights beyond us.
It shouldn't be like this. I imagined this scene with her with happiness and wildfire within us. But I can sense that she's crying. No Helly, just be happy for us.
Her lips were indeed sweet. I always craved it. I want to bite it as if it was a sweet gummy candy. This is one of the things that I like about her. Hmm, thanks to her past boylets, they thought she kissed well.
"I love you too, Dawn. Sorry if I can't stay—"
"Shhh, let's just kiss now, okay? Hold on a little bit longer, baby." I cut her off. I still don't want to hear her next words. I don't know but I am sure that it would probably hit me hard.
I saw her looking down and maybe he got a bit embarrassed. I just forced myself to chuckle and I saw her bite his lower lip. I'm still hugging her. She looks so cute every time she's doing it.
"Hmm, okay. I love you."
"Marry me tomorrow."
I saw her stop for a moment. I hope he heard it. That was a sudden decision but I really want it to happen for real. I don't care if she will leave me soon. Being married to her is more than enough.
"Dawn..."
My heart ripped a bit. What? Don't tell me she's undecided yet. No, maybe something's just bugging her.
"No more what if's now Helly. I want us forever. I want to own you legally, I want you. Even if it's just for a short time, I want to be with you."
This is just my sweet revenge for her. Every time I remember those days that she's suffering, it haunts me all the time. She's carrying the world within those times. If only I was there for her then I am probably content now.
I don't know who to blame. My mother was at fault. The fact that she flirted with Richard without knowing his real intentions, made me want to cry hard.
The Addingstons weren't at fault at all. I know Timothy Hadley was a good and great man.
"I don't know anymore."
I firmly closed my eyes. I was regretful. If only I could turn back the time then our situation would not be complicated like this.
"I am sorry. I actually want it to happen but sorry, I don't want to be selfish. Please, I want to marry you but we can't. You can't be alone forever."
I don't know but sir Timothy's situation somewhat appeared on my mind. I don't care, Helly.
"I can. Just like your Dad, I promised that I will stay with you and won't replace you. I know what he feels. I understand why he doesn't want someone else anymore."
I swallowed hard as I could feel something stopping me from breathing. I can't speak well. I am stuttering. I can be alone. That is what actually happened to me now.
The fact that my parents were concerned was only for our business. I have taken care of Eriesyl since then. I treated her just like my real sister as I don't want her to feel like she does not belong to our family.
"No, please. That was hard for Daddy. I saw it. I saw all of it. I witnessed how he had broken down for years. It breaks me and frustrates me on what to do." She sighed when her tears pool down again like waterfalls.
I nodded weakly and painfully.
She started to stand up and sighed while staring at the buildings. "Maybe tomorrow or next week will be my last. I want to spend it and live my life to the fullest. I don't have the strength anymore."
I remained silent for the whole time. I don't have a choice but to accept the truth that she's finally starting to bid her goodbye. She didn't say it directly but I know, that is what her point is.
I followed her eyes on where it darted. I saw her turn her gaze to the left side. It was the dark part of the place. I exhaled and grabbed her hands. We are now standing while facing the whole world.
"Dawn, can I ask you a favor?"
My mind got intrigued by what she said. "What is it?"
She became silent for a moment while I was waiting for her response.
"Please marry someone else after me. It's all up to you who you would marry." I got pissed so I clenched my jaws. "It's hard to be alone. Please promise me that you won't close your heart. You deserve someone who will stay with you..."
I don't care if she won't stay but I just want to love only her. "I won't do that."
She looked down. "Please, I don't want you to experience being alone just like Dad. Swear, it's not easy. Please, Dawn, I'm letting you go now. Just do it, it is your love's last wish."
Yeah, it is her last wish. Even though it is against my will. I just nodded. I followed what my heart told me to do.
"I love you, Dawn, until our next warm and wild hugs." She smiled helplessly.
Out of the blue, I can feel my heartbeat so fast. It was beating so wildly. I closed my eyes to relax myself. Maybe, I'm just tired. For all the happenings now, for all the tears that escaped from my eyes, they are all exhausting.
"Helly!"
In the middle of silence, I just heard something that exploded harshly. My eyes widened when I figured out what happened. I immediately grabbed Helly for a run but I guess I was late.
It exploded actually here at the rooftop. I don't really know what it is but my hunch said it was a bad thing. I shook my head.
"Helly! Helly, what's happening to you?!"
I panicked when I saw her coughing so hard. My eyes widened when she looked me directly in the eyes. It became weaker—the weakest eyes.
I can't feel anything anymore when I realize what happened to her. The prints of blood from out of nowhere made me realize it. She coughed again. When I kneeled and went near the red plasma, my jaws fell. My mouth was half-opened. My heart was racing so fast as if anytime now it would probably come out from my chest. My whole body was trembling. As the blood from her head was seen.
"H-Helly!"
No this can't be! No this is not happening right now!
I immediately grabbed her and let her lay on my lap. Damn it! I didn't bring my phone with me! I immediately heard an emergency alarm and the authorities immediately headed her to where we were.
"Helly! Please hold on! You still can't leave yet!"
"D-dawn..." her eyes were now the weakest. "I c-can't marry you... Sorry for leaving you so early." she closed her eyes firmly and groaned in pain.
"Excuse us!" The authorities immediately went in our direction to rescue Helly. I almost went out of my head. No, I need to talk to her first! She still wasn't done talking!
"D-dawn!"
I turned my head when Shannie and Yulla, with Sir Timothy, immediately ran to where we are.
I saw the concern in Shannie's eyes and how her mouth half-opened when she saw her best friend's situation. Her friend is bleeding and gasping for air.
"Eummie! No! Please no! Dawn! What happened —oh my God! Argh!"
Shannie broke down. I bite my lower lip to stop from crying. She wants to rest, yes and I also want that for her but this is not the rest that I expected to happen.
While my eyes were watering, I went to her Dad's reaction. He held his chest and tried to figure out what's happening.
"S-sir, I'm sorry. If only I didn't let her come here. this won't happen." I said and started regretting.
I didn't get any answers from him. "My d-daughter. She is now having her rest."
I looked down and I could feel my eyes becoming dark. I gritted my teeth and my eyes darted on where Helly's eyes darted a while ago.
It was her. She shot her. She will rot in jail.
You are a demon-like your husband, Dymieyle.
