Chapter101

She turned to walk away but Ryan held her hand. He went through so much so that he could come back to her like this. For the past five years, he had thought of only one person. How can he just watch her walk away? He was all the more relieved when he found out that she probably wasn't in a real relationship with Raymond. This meant that he still had a chance with her right?
"I'm not going to let you go. I came back this time because of you Allen. You've always known. About my feelings for you ..." He trailed off just then.
"I don't know. I don't know anything. All that I know is that I want to be far far away from me. What are you going to say? That you love me? Then I have to tell you this. Being the recipient of your love is really the most frightening ever! I don't want to have anything to do with you ever again. Can you please just stop showing up in front of me?" Allen asked.
She tried to walk away again but Ryan definitely wasn't letting go. Who knew when he was going to see her again? He could not let her go like this.
Just then, a car pulled up just in front of him. The car door opened and someone walked out. It was Paul. Allen sighed in relief. She felt as if she had just seen her saviour
She tried to remove her hand from his grip so that she could go to Paul. She had already figured out that Lena probably called him.
Ryan didn't let go of her hand and the both of them started to struggle.
"If she says that you should let go then you should let you. It's not right to force a woman like this" Paul said. He was walking towards the both of them right now.
"I don't think that this has anything to do with you. Just go on your way" Ryan said. He did not know Paul and so he thought that he was just a regular passerby who did not know how to mind his own business.
"I think that it's my business though. That woman is my ..." Paul stoped just then. Wait, what was Allen to him again? The woman that he was tricking everyone with?
"That woman is my friend!" He said. Well, at least at some point, the both of them could be considered to be friends right?
Ryan was surprised. He looked at Allen. She was smiling happily at the man who had just arrived. It was as if she was smiling with her eyes. They were about to turn into into two cresent moons. Just what kind of friend is this? Ryan felt as if his blood was boiling. How close id he to Allen that she is smiling so happily? She had never smiled like this in front of him before. What is going on?
"Paul, it's such a good thing that you are here. Did Lena tell you where to find me?" Allen asked. She was so happy to see him.
"Yes. She told me. No matter what, you should not go with people like this again. We can always deal with the aftermath of anything together" Paul said. Immediately he saw Ryan, he did not like him. This person looked too dangerous. For some reason, he seemed to remind him of that annoying Raymond Walker. And he did not like that feeling at all.
"He already knows everything" Allen said. Her voice was low. She was feeling terribly guilty. She could not do anything right. She kept getting herself into all kinds of trouble.
"It doesn't matter. You should not put yourself in danger. Let's go" Paul said. He did not bother to talk to Ryan. The more he looked at him, the more he was reminded of Raymond Walker, and the more he annoyed him.
Allen remembered that someone was still holding on to her then. She tried to remove her hand but he just refused to let go.
Paul had to step in. "What do you think that you are doing right now? She doesn't want to and you are clearly forcing her, is this how you treat women?" Paul asked him.
Ryan looked at Allen's face. She had a look of discomfort on her face. He definitely did not want to hurt her like he did five years ago. She was definitely going to hate him to death then. So even though he did not want to, he decided to let go of her. Whatever, he was just going to find a way to see her again. As for this person, Ryan took a good look at him again. He would never forget him. He is going to deal with him again.
Paul took Allen away and the both of them got into the car. Ryan sighed. What is he going to do now? It seemed that the only flaw that he did have was this woman Allen. It would be great if he could get her to forgive him but if she continues to be this stubborn, how long will they have to continue like this?
****
In the car, Paul was driving and Allen sat still. She did not know what she was supposed to say to him.
She felt guilty that someone like Ryan already knew about it. She felt that she could not do anything right.
"I'm really sorry Paul. I really did not know that it would come to this. I'm sorry. It's all my fault" Allen said.
"No, it wasn't your fault. Don't think that Allen. It isn't as if you told him about him yourself. Anyway, how do you know such a person? He doesn't seem like a good person. And he seems dangerous. How on Earth do you know him?"
Allen thought that Paul was definitely right. He isn't a good person. And he is dangerous.
