Chapter 60. Things untold and known

QUILL
What do they keep talking about that they are getting over my head? I don't understand them? What about family? Me being in trouble through them and then that the Capo wants something from a person like me? What could it be? And why? I am a person with nothing? Living in just nothing? Then what do they keep talking about. I wondered to myself and then sat back. Kept listening.
"I know that too. Why do you think he first saved her from dying? He did it so that he can marry her." He said something that blew my mind. Marry me? "He even saved her back there with his father because he knows she is worth more then just the shoes." He said again. They talking like friends and spilling beans while I am sitting here in hide listening to them. "Yup! He wants to marry me. That's when he proposed the divorce to me suddenly. Remember the day I came down the den and extended my hand towards her. Telling her that I want revenge and be friends with her? It's because I was getting divorce and I can't let him leave me for someone like her. Unacceptable. "she cried out loudly. And took deep breath. She was angry right now. She is yelling. But that didn't concern me rigjt now. What was concerning me was what she was talking about right now.
Divorce? He asked for divorce? Because he wanted to marry me? That just doesn't make sense. And the fact that half the reason Eva wanted to kill me was because she was angry on the fact that he was behind her? It just all doesn't makes sense I can't stand this! I won't.
I just laid back in my place and sighed, laughing loud. What is this? I can't stand it. The whole think they are talking about yet not so clear is confusing me I wantt little clarity on this. I just looked out again. When they both were hone now. Suddenly? Between the talking where did they go? I wondered and kept sitting inside but then I heard someone on the outside again. And I looked out. Finding them back.
"I thought I saw her." He said as he looked around. "After that day remember my mother came down because he openly asked in front of the whole family. Without any hesitation. That's when iw as enraged heavily. I wanted to just kill him and her, but that wouldn't do." She said and looked around too. But Acalian shaked his head."Enough! I am not interested in your sob stories. Just leave now. Don't bother me and Her. She is going away. She won't be here. So she won't fuck up with you and your husband do you get me?" Lex asked her. But I didn't knew what and where this was going on? They talk like friends. But wait a minute.
If Lex was there all the time and she knew about it? That means she Knew Lex was Acalian.
She is acquaintance or enemy! So confusing."That won't happen my love. I will find her and kill her at any most. Till then. Bye bye." She said and started to walk out. "I know you are in there. Come out. Hiding won't do any good for you Quill! I am trying to protect you. You know that so just listen to me." He said suddenly as I felt awkward. He knew I was inside yet he.
I just was normal a little then my anxiety that unknowingly had overtaken me with all the questions. I just came out and stared at him."Do you see that? Did you hear it? I am nit hiding anything from you so I give you no doubts on me. Though you are questioning my intentions if sending you away? Like this? Like running away without telling anymore. By acting like you are so distant and person I have hurt with my acts? "He said sadly. He was hurt by the way I acted instead if being angry like earlier in the crowd. I walked out. And responded him back."I am not! I am not questioning your intentions over me. I know you want to protect me and keep me safe, but Lex. This is my fight too? Can't you se and involve me in this? I have my power to have my decisions. But you are trying to over power me and its like disrespecting me and us? "I said to him he laughing.
"You are right!" He said between his laughters and then walked my way, "Indeed this is your life and you make your decisions. But only if you weren't childish enough to think like this? And talk like this? I would have let you go. You think that the world is a naive place like. You. Its not my love. Its ugly and dirty and it's so bad that you might wish to die someday under the darkness of world. But you don't see that. You just see the pink world like a kid. "He said and laughed. As he stared in me."Fighting is not hard or easy. It's scary. It's scary to kill someone. Its scary to ruin a family behind the person you killed on whimp. You think you will kill few people and feel good. You won't. When you will kill someone you will send someone else in the same slumber you are in right now. Do you think you can take it? You can make more Quill? Enraged in anger and frustration of revenge?" He did make a point. That's true its not like when I go to the Capo I will just kill him. On the way towards him there will be more then few people who will be the dog killed by my knife.
What about there families? There daughter and there children. Even if I exclude the associates because they can't have something like family because if there animality. The soldiers? They can and have families. How will i kill and make another Quill homeless? I can't do that.
I can't kill innocent people. Just the innocents okay! I just thought to myself. And then looked down feeling guilty. In my annoyance I didn't realise this earlier.
I just s hooked the thoughts. And looked at him. "You are trying to play with head." I said to him and shoved him trying to walk out but he caught me by my waist and pinned me on the wall. My hands up on the wall. While he had leaned over on me. "You are being stubborn at the level I loose control. And it's not something that is appealing. Stop now." He said gritting on his teeth and threatening me when imwad just not interested in hearing his thoughts. He leaning closer more. "You see, I am not a nice man when I am not pretending to be." He said as he kinda scared me for a moment.
He left me and took my hand starting to drag me out while I just kept trying to get free from his grip no one trying to protect or help me at all. I was yelling loudly for help calling everyone no one came. They all just ignore me with there open eyes. Evil jerks how can they be like this? Be dragged me towards the car as he threw me inside. And closed the door. I trying to open but I couldn't find the handle. Where was it? I looked up and down. "There are no handles. And don't even think about jumping again? I am not stupid as Jack and Aro I won't like it."He kept trying to take me Cali. And I didn't actually attempted back anything. I can just come back here from Cali.
He kept driving as he and I went silent but no attempt made him stay on call all the time. So whenever I live he tried to hold on me."You would have been a good girl before this. But no! You won't! You had to involve me in all this." He said. As he looked down. "They told me you daggered yourself. So I ran till here." He said suddenly changing in second. As he parked the car outside a big building. Coming out as he extended his hand. And opened the gate from outside. And brought be out.
"What is this place? And why are we here?" I asked him, "Are you going to kill me?" I asked him. I thought we were going to Cali right? Where are we right now then? This place is strange and rich and something that commoners like me can't afford at all.
I just opened my mouth, the jaw that was dropping down. And looked around thinking about everything. As I kept wondering. "Are you taking me to hotel room?" I asked him he laughing. That's what you are scared of? Going in a hote room with me? I remember how you yelled you can't share the room with me back in the house. "He suddenly brought something up like everything between is just as small and normal as anything else. But it wasn't. Things are yet dirty and ugly. He walked inside and then towards the elevator with me.
" What is this place? And why are we here? "I asked him. When he just came my way and hugged me." Because you are injured. "He said as I frowned,"This is hospital? It doesn't looks like it is?" I asked dhim acting childish. When he laughed. And kept hugging me. Now even my hands rising up to hug him while we both remained silent in the elevator. The elevator door opening and an old couple walking inside laughing looking at us. While I urged to push but he won't go away and just kept hugging me with the couples inside too. It was really awkward. They were old though and that there life once had been through something like this too. I just let it go. And enjoy.
He then after a long time parted ways with me.
The way he is in love with me. I wonder when and where this all began. Why is he so sweet and nice. Is he like that with every fing if his? I am bit fling though we are not serious are we.
I can't imagine myself with someone this great and big for my life.
I just shoved my thoughts away. "First girl? How come?" The old man asked when Acalian just didn't say anything. "Dad, please."
Dad? This is his dad? Dad! Like father? Birth giving father? "What are we doing?" The woman said. Wait a minute is this his mom? I just wondered in shock and considering the way I looked, what a worst way and day to meet your guy's parents. He smiled at my uneasiness. "Mom, dad this is Quill. The girl I told you about. We are, us." He said as he took my hands up. They nodding and laughing, "We know. Why is she injured so badly?" They asked him. When he looked at me. "Just some trouble we ran in our way." He said as the elevator door opened. His parents turning and looking my way. "Nice meeting you Quill." His mother said and giggled as the elevator door closed and I turned to see him. "Why couldn't you tell me earlier? And that too. You were hugging me. Like that, it was so awkward!" I cried and yelled out.
But he shook his head. "Don't worry! They are not my real parents they are my adoptive parents. And the other thing is, they know everything about us. And about my feelings for you. So no worries!" He said and explained.
Well, adoptive or real. Parents are parents.
"What is this place?" I asked him. He just looking down. "My real house."
