Jay's POV
Asshole , absolute asshole...
I shouted in my mind, my irritation rising very high and so that the guilt...
The guilt of shouting on him when he was treating my wound, helping me , caring for me, being a very annoying gentleman...
But the frustration of everyone ruling my lives, playing god, showing me weak ...was creeping on my mind and I let it out on him...
But he deserved that , he lied, he planned, he played the game so he deserved it ...
Oh god , why is this happening??
But then I remembered his side of story, the struggle, the way he felt of being second everytime , being an adult at the age of 14,saw his father killing his mother, raising two kids alone and love...love , it was never with him, his friends ...apart, physically, emotionally...
It justified ..it justified his behaviour of being cold, distant , protective and being in control.
I don't know if this is logic or love ..
But I have decided one thing that I will forgive him, give him the second chance, he deserves it, after all the efforts..
And because I am stupid enough to love someone like him...
I spent my whole night thinking this, trying to suppress every second thought...
But when I am in the class, looking for him...
This guy is absent...
Ci informed me....
And I am dying right now, out of all days he chose today to be absent...
Great, this is only thing I need today...(Sarcasm)
I opened my chats but nothing...anger rose..
Didn't he say that he will tell me everything but that gago , he didn't...
Keifer Watson, why are you doing this??
But then a second thought passed my brain...
(Yes , I can think..)
He is dealing with his family problems...He was about to go to London...Did he go there already??Without saying anything to me.. without a word..Did he give up??
Was I too harsh yesterday??
My tears prickling at the corner of my eyes..
I didn't let them fall and sat on my seat...
But then another possibility pass through my mind..
Is he okay??
IS HE OKAY??
Oh god, please no..
His family,his jackass father did something to him??
Oh god,no..
Sweat began forming on my body....
Anger, vulnerability all gone...
If anything left is concern and love...
Keifer please be okay...you deserve to die but by my hands only...
I pulled my phone and dialed his number too many times that my fingers hurt ...
But same reply..
The number you trying to call is not reachable, please try again later
Oh god Keifer, where are you, the place with no network...ary you trying to be a handsome tarzan then please no , I need you here...
Please pick up my phone and tell me you are okay so that I can punch your face...
I dialed again but nothing , call went to voice mail...
My tears fell on the blank screen to make me realise that I am crying...
Damn it..
What are you doing to me Watson??
I put my head down so that nobody notices me crying and throw my pencil on the floor so that I can bend down and remove the evidence of me crying for an asshole who is hiding in a forest...
I was under the table, trying to stop myself from crying but then my eyes fell over a paper,lying near Yuri's chair...I decided to ignore thinking it as a piece of trash just like my life but my eyes fell over the photo on that paper , it was blur but it's speaking arrogance, coldness, protection, safety and ..Keifer.
It is definitely Keifer's photo...
I can't see it clearly but I know that I am not wrong...
Curiosity took over me ...
I rolled my pencil in that direction and went there...
Nobody questioned.
Good.
I picked my pencil and that paper and put it in my pocket...
As soon as the class ended , I ran to music room and locked the door...
I opened the paper...
It had so many photos on it... Keifer's too
I told you I am not wrong..
But weird thing is..
All photos have red circles on them and some have a big red cross...
The language is nor tagalog , neither English..It is Japanese..
I couldn't read it ..so I clicked a picture and scanned it on the Google to translate it..
I don't know why am I doing this, but it has Keifer's photo and now anything related to him is making me feel scared for him and those red marks speak danger...
As soon as Google translated it , my eyes widened...
It is a hitlist issued by Hanamitchis for Yuri to kill those people who are mentioned..
Some are already killed and some are about to...
And Keifer...my Keifer is among them..
No, no..
This can't be true..
I fell on the ground , strength left my body, anything left is fear...My eyes were pouring river..
I closed my eyes for a second , hoping it to be a dream but as soon as I closed them,
All I could hear is him..
Calling me wifey..
Smiling on me..
But his smile faltered ..
His words change..
'Jay, wifey, I loved you and I will love you even after I am gone'
His hands left mine and he disappeared in darkness..
I shouted..
"KEIFER"
I opened my eyes, I am in the music room, my body on the ground...and that hitlist still in my hand..
No keifer, you can't leave me, left me crying..
No I won't let it happen..
I picked my phone and called Percy..
He picked within two rings..
My hands shaking..
"Hey, baby sistaah , are you missing my handsome voice in the school hours,Aww you lov..." Percy said but I cut him off
"Percy.." my voice came, barely ,shaking , very low , showing every fear and tear..
Percy's tone changed..
From a self obsessed monkey to the protective brother..
" Jay-jay, why are you crying, what happens?? Answer me, Did that asshole did anything to hurt y..." I didn't let him complete his sentence..
"He is in danger.."
Four words..They left my mouth but took my soul with them ...A cry escaped my throat, not a sob but a cry, a very scared sound...
"Baby sistaah, I am coming, I am already in the car, wait for me don't cry, please" Percy's voice came soft , concerned,and scared..
He is scared...for him
" Please fast ,I am in music room" I said..
Percy ended the call..
And I am still crying, my brain thinking of every worst thing..
I tried calling Keifer again but no voice that makes me feel giddy and angry at the same time...
Where are you , Keifer??
I buried my face in my knees , holding myself so tight as if it can protect me..
Then , I heard a knock..
"Jay, it's Percy , open the door" A relief rushed through me after hearing the person next door..
I ran to the door and opened it ...
Percy's couldn't even enter when I hugged him and began crying loudly..
" Shh, Jay-jay, it's okay, I have got you"Percy said, trying to console me..
" Percy, he..he is"I couldn't form words and buried my face in his chest and continued crying..
" Jay, nothing will happen to him, you know how he is, he is an asshole, he can't die , definitely not without explaining me these four years and getting a punch straight on his well structured face" Percy said, trying to sound funny , but that fear was visible..
His words made me feel better but not enough that I forgot the danger on him..
I pulled back , wiped my tears and went to take that paper and my phone and handed it to Percy..
Enough ..enough of this crying, now I have to save him and be the queen he told me that I am...
Percy took the paper and my phone..
His eyes widened when he realised that truth but then his expression turned sad..
And then rage..pure unadultered rage.
" I won't leave you Yuri " He muttered but I heard it..
I will handle this later..
I snatched my phone from his hand and dialed Edrix number ..
He answered in a ring..
I didn't exchange any greeting..
" Edrix , I want you in the music room of section E alone,right now..." I told him and ended the call..
Percy looked at me with pure shock and proud..
Then he began dialing some numbers in his phone..
I was pretending to be strong but I am breaking inside and I need you Mark Keifer Watson , to hold me , Please be okay..
Edrix came within minutes..
His chest going up and down as if he was running..
He saw me tears falling, hairs dishelved and Percy who is busy on his phone...
" Jay , what happened??"He asked..
" Edrix I need you help,Please find the location of Keifer.." I told him, my voice broken but firm..
" Jay"
He was about to say something but I stopped himm..
" Please, if you trust me , then don't ask anything and just do it"
Something in my voice made him agree to do that..
He began doing stuff..
" Jay, he is in some no network areas,It is difficult to track him" he told me , eyes on the screen..
" I know Edrix but please do it , it's needed" I begged him..
" It will take some time" He replied back, now more focussed and determined..
" Edrix track him at the outskirts of city, his car was noticed there last time" Percy told Edrix..
Good, we are getting close to him..
" Thanks Percy, the work is easier now" Edrix told Percy..
Soon , I got the information..
He is at some construction site, abandoned, horrified and so accurate for the last thing I wanted to happen..
Panic , fear surged through me..
My body fell weaken again..
But Percy caught me..
" We need to go, Percy" I told him..
He nodded..
" Jay" Edrix called me..
" Edrix , don't ask me anything and please don't tell this to section E and tell them I had stomach ache , that's why I went back to home" I told Edrix..
He nodded and went back ..
Percy and I went towards his car..
We settled and engine roared..
" Percy , fast please..we need to be there" I shouted...but I was shaking ...my breath uneven..
He sensed it..
" Jay, are you okay,please breathe" Percy told me , eyes focussed on the road...
" Percy , I am fine. Just drive" I told him, wiping my tears again and again with the back of my hand..
I was still dialing him but no results...
Soon, we were on the abandoned road..and car stopped in front of a building..
I looked around and found two cars there...
One was undeniably his but the other one I can't recognise...
I jumped off the car and ran to the building...
I didn't make any sound...
Scared ..
I climbed floors and then we reached the fifth floor..
Percy is not here with me, he went to check the other areas..
I heard some whispers, people talking..and one voice was his...
Relief hit me so hard , I nearly fell on the floor ready to break again but happily but I needed to see him and punch him..
I quickened my pace , trying to make less sound , and then I saw ..him
Keifer..
Fine , perfectly fine..
Talking to a man , I can't see the man , his back is facing me, but I don't care , all I just needed is to be with him..
He still didn't see me..
I approached him..
But I wanted to shout his name , so I did..
"KEIFER"
He stiffened at my voice , and that man was moving very fast to the other side, going back from the other way..
I didn't know who he was and I don't care..because all I care about the man standing in front of me, looking at me with wide eyes as if he saw a ghost...
I couldn't handle the seperation now so I ran, I ran to him...faster than I have ever did and lunged on him...
He stumbled back a bit but handled himself and hold me so tight, same intensity, same desperation..
" Jay-jay" He said...
My name, his voice, best thing...
I hugged him more tighter..
Crying loudly...
" Shh Jay-jay, what happened, why are you crying??" He asked me ..
Voice concerned, protective, scared all at once...
But then my angry took over me..
I jumped off him and delivered a punch straight on his jaw..
He stumbled back because of the force but caught himself..
"Owww , Jay-jay, why did y..." I didn't let him complete...
I hold his collar, bring him down and crashed my lips on his..pouring all the emotions out...
