Chapter 100: Chapter 100
"Is this? Is this how you want it? " Dred said to me while kissing me aggressively.
Alessia was trying to push him away, but the grip Dred was giving her was too strong, and she couldn't help but feel suffocated. Alessia was so confused and so scared, and she badly didn’t want to continue what they were doing anymore.
"S----stop please." Alessia said
Alessia was scared, but she was astonished at the same time. She didn't know what she was going to do next. When he tore her shirt apart, she became terrified and almost choked. Alessia was scared of what he could do.
"Stop!" I shouted, and Dred stopped.
For some inexplicable reason, Dred walked away from Alessia, and she was just staring at him. Alessia starts to get worried, stressed, and scared because of how Dred reacts.
"Yes, I want this to happen, but not in this way; I want to feel the love, but how can I feel that if nothing else seems to be happening?"
Dred put his shirt back on, and he stepped out of their room. Alessia grabbed him by the feet and said
"Please just tell me why are you acting like that? What's the reason? " I asked him.
"What's the reason for what?" Dred asked her back.
"What's the reason you're behaving like that?"
"Why aren't you paying me much attention? Like the way you used to, before? "
"How come you don't recognize me when we're in the same house?"
"Do you even care if I've eaten already?"
"Why can't you look at me with love like before?"
"Why Dred? What did I do? "
Alessia asked, but she received nothing from Dred, who was standing in front of her while she was lying on the floor. They were both restless and clueless about what to do. While one felt lost, the other felt confused because of what he was feeling.
"Look at me now!" Alessia said
Alessia helps herself to get up and face everything that this man she loved will give her. She was unsure, but she forced him to face it. As Dred turned around and faced each other, the love they felt for each other turned cold.
Alessia can't believe what she's seeing and can't seem to accept it.
"When did this happen?" Alessia asked.
Dred was simply staring at her beloved. He was afraid. But he imprinted in his brain that these things were meant to be delivered to the place they should be, but seeing his wife cry was an agonizing one. He can't deny the fact that he messed up big time.
Dred turned his back because he couldn't take it anymore. He was making it hard for both of them, but he couldn't pull it out of him how to end it all.
"What do I do? Every time I see you like this, my heart feels bad. Would it make my heart at ease if I told you that this was just my plan to return you to him? Will my heart come back to the way it was before? After I met you? "
But Dred never let his thoughts catch him or else his whole thing would be blown up.
"Did Blade have anything to do with this?" Alessia asked.
Both of them froze as if none of them was breathing, but Dred didn't answer her. The only thing stuck in his brain now was how he would escape from this draining scene.
"Now what? You're going to leave me again? "
"You're going to say to me that the reason you're acting like nothing happened is because you're stressed at work?"
"Why can't you tell me, Dred? I'm stressed and have a problem too, but I never disregarded you! "
Dred was at his limits as he couldn't control what he felt inside.
"You don't know anything."
"Then help me know. Explain everything to me." Alessia said, in her most soft tone, "When did I not understand you, Dred?"
"I can and could if you just let me." Alessia said as she held Dred's hand.
Dred was just standing there as those memories of Alessia flashed through his mind. How lively she is, how at ease and peaceful. How happy they are when they are busy at work but never forget to have dinner dates, bonding, caring and loving each other. He stood there as if he had been taken back in time and saw everything. Dred can't help but cry about what he has done.
He collapsed and was seated, not knowing what to do and where to start. Alessia sat in front of him, asking him what was wrong and if he was okay, and that hit him.
Where can you find a woman who really cares for you? Even if they don't understand you, they decided to stay. Out of all the girls Dred has loved before, she's the one he wasn't mentally prepared to accept but the one who understands him the most.
Dred did go against his will and pull Alessia into a hug.
"I'm sorry."
"I'm really sorry, hun!" He cries
But Alessia didn't do anything more than comfort him, telling him that it was alright. Dred didn't know how to start and what to tell her, but he decided that if she happened to make a decision when the time had come, he'd accept it fully.
But this time he can't turn back now because he made a vow and he's not someone that will turn back on what he said.
"I adore you."
"But at first, I didn't consider you as my wife..."
"What are you saying?" Alessia asked, confused.
Dred's heart was still broken, but he knew it was the right thing to do. He knows Alessia will not forgive him for what he plans to do, but she will someday understand why he did it to her. Someday she'll understand the sacrifice this man made for her to make her happy or, worse, sad.
"I hope you can forgive me, but I plan to take you back to where you should be, Alessia." Dred said
And Dred walked towards his business bag with tears on his face, crying. Why couldn't he do it? To fight Alessia like she does for him, but he couldn't be bothered. From the very beginning, he knew that she was not his.
Dred even chuckled when he realized how messed up Alessia was when they got married. It was their 3rd month in their relationship, but she was still crying over something that was not her fault.
Dred handled the envelope for Alessia, and Alessia was dumbfounded. She couldn't believe what she read when she opened the envelope.
"Tell me the word and I'll submit it right away."
"Tell me that you want me to be your husband, hun."
