Chapter 96: Chapter 96

What? Daddy? Who are they calling daddy? I put the things aside and washed my hands before going out of the kitchen. I walked towards the living room and I heard Raylie’s giggles. Fear took over me as I heard them. What the hell are these kids doing?

As soon as I entered the living room my whole body froze as I saw the man who was sitting on the sofa while having both Raylie and Noel in his arms. I watched them for a while and bit my lower lip because I couldn’t understand or believe what I’m seeing. Then the familiar blue eyes fell on me with a beautiful smile. Am I dreaming? I again looked at Raylie and Noel, they were hugging him so tightly.

“Ryan?...” I looked at his eyes and spoke with a low voice. I’m not believing what I’m just seeing. Maybe this all could disappear within a second because I have seen many illusions over these four months and all those things only brought me endless pain.

“Come here” This voice. How many times did I imagine this voice? Is he really here or this is also just a dream that I saw. He really came home? I watched him for a while and my eyes turned moist.

I don’t want to get hurt again. He’s not true. I shook my head and took a few steps back as I turned and ran upstairs. He’s not true Julianna. Ryan is gone. You imagine things go and drink your medicine. My mind was screaming and I quickly went into the room and grabbed my medicine pack.

I had my medicine at the right time but again it’s happening. I went to the washroom and filled a glass of water and came as I took out all my medicine. Then I immediately put them into my mouth to drink but at the same time the door of my room opened and Ryan entered.

“Julianna, what?.. What are you doing?” He strode towards me and grabbed me from my chin as he took medicine out and threw it away. He’s real.. Isn’t he? I can feel him.

“What are these? Why are you taking them?” I looked at his worried face and I felt my heart was beating so fast after almost eight months.

“Ryan.. is it really you?” I asked him and watched his face. He nodded at me and raised his hand to touch my face but before he could do I slapped him hard across his face. Why the hell he didn’t talk to me and tell me that he’s safe?

“Bastard…” Ryan watched me with a shocked face and then his eyes slowly curled upwards to a smile.

“I knew that you would definitely hit me” He smiled at me and said. Anger boiled inside of me as I saw him still teasing me after making me who I am today.

“Why didn't you talk to me? Why made me like this? Why? Go away, I don’t need a selfish man like you. At least you could have given me only one call. Only one” I pushed him away and shouted.

Tears rolled down from my eyes as I remembered who hard it was for me to live over these four months while knowing he won’t come back to my life He looked at me with a hurt look but his eyes softened as he pulled me to him and hugged me.

“Julianna it was hard for me. I also thought that I was dead but I wanted to come back because of you. You were waiting for me” I clutched his shirt tightly and placed my forehead against his chest. His heart was beating.. Yeah.. he’s alive.

“They said you… you got shot and fell down from a cliff” I looked up at him and said. He watched me for a while and nodded.

“Yeah, fell down” he smiled at me and caressed my face. I let out a deep breath because I’m having his touch after almost eight months.

“What happened? How?” I asked him. He sighed and smiled at me.

“I have something for you” With that he put his hand into the right pocket in his pants and took a small bag out.

“What is this?” I asked him and bit my lower lip.

“The bullet that pierced a few inches away from my heart. I took it out on my own because I didn’t want to die. I wanted to come to you and my kids. You were so ignorant and naive, so how am I supposed to leave you?” Ryan chuckled and gave me the bullet. I took it to my hand and watched it closely. This bastard bullet… I hate…

“You took it out on your own? How?” I looked away from his eyes and asked because I was just sad and I didn’t want to cry.

“I had a dagger with me so it helped” Unintentionally I looked up at him and watched the smile he had on his face. Then I quickly unbuttoned his shirt and removed the shirt from his body.

My heart tightened as I saw the wound in his chest. I covered my face with my palms and cried and I couldn’t stop my cries. His body was so perfect but now he has a deadly scar on his chest.

“Julianna, don't cry. Please forgive me. It's nearly got three months for me to heal and today is the day I stepped out of the place that I stayed so as long as I came out I came here for you and kids.” I nodded at him and hugged him so tightly. He came back and that’s enough. That’s enough. I’m not alone anymore and I don’t have to cry at night again.

“But they found a dead body” I looked up at him and said as he sighed.

“I don’t know. I fell into the river. Urghh.. I don’t want to remember it” I nodded at him and smiled. Then he watched me for a while and a perverted smirk appeared on his face.

“No.. Ryan.” I quickly pushed him away and tried to escape but before I could do that he grabbed me from my hand and pushed me onto the bed.

“It was fucking more than seven months” He said as he started to tickle me. I couldn’t help but smile because of his actions. Suddenly he stopped his actions and looked at me and then his eyes fell above my head. His face changed and his eyes became sharp. Suddenly fear took over me as I felt where he was looking at. I quickly broke free from his grip and tried to get up from the bed.

“WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS?”
