Canvas Thee Thoughts - Pawning Souls

Everybody has seems to settle down upon their seats in the lecture hall. And here again I'm rushing towards my seat with Miss Agnes sight fixed directly at me. To my annoyance, Ezra had place the rest of our incomplete presentation, on the foldable desk of my chair. Deep beneath my nerve, I could have just flung those notes right to his face, but it seems, I've forgotten where I've place my courage though.

Ezra was apparently sitting two seats away from me and I just wouldn't want to care and feel bothered anymore. That hideous and sickening intention which he had drought me with, had somehow or rather instilled anger and hatred thoughts upon him. 

Finally, it was our turn to present our incomplete assignment, as both our names being clearly called by miss Agnes.

"Ezra Adnan and Reem Sumaiyah.. please come forward with your works.." ordered Miss Agnes as her sharp eyes begin to roam upon our doubtful faces.

It seems Ezra was not barging from his seat at all, and with this unamused attitude which he tried to portray, I get off from my chair, bringing those unfinished notes and came closer next to him. Without second thoughts, I roughly shove them upon his chest. "You finished this shit.." I hissed at him sharply, as I came forward towards the center stage of the hall. With that emphatic guilt stricken look mark across his face, he stood up from his chair, carrying those notes carefully in his hands.

"Good afternoon everyone, we are pleased to present our works..." begins Ezra as he peers towards my forlorn features that seems to be cause by my misfits emotions.

"Our topic is about the turbulent lost of hope and courage.." state Ezra. I clenched both my fists tightly by my side, with some kind of unspeakable turmoil notion burning deep inside my heart, for those weren't the topics which we were bind to work upon.

Miss Agnes projects an innermost shocking looked, however she managed to regain back her composure and said, "All right bring it on.."

"Why does antagonist need to exists? In movies, novels, scripts.. what significant messages does these characters brings?" State Ezra in such a clear and precinct voice.

"To add in more flavour .. therefore the plot will be much more interesting.." replied one of our classmates.

"Yes... that could be part of the agenda. However, please do correct me if I'm wrong, no one were bore to walk the antagonist path, they were made to form like one..due to lost of hope, faith and courage.." mark Ezra coldly.

"I have to disagree on these..." I begin, causing some kind of grating tension throughout that perplexed atmosphere. "So you are blaming the path? Even though the enlighten path has been widely stretch, freely in front of us but yet the antagonist, still wanted to amount the dark ones? Despite they knew it was wrong? Greed, ego and jealousy has indeed blackened that soul to fall into that lowest ground."

"Because the trust is gone.." Utters Ezra.

"Exactly..." I state. "That antagonist has decide not to trust their own faith, severing their courage, blinding their hope with accumulating fear..." I continue.

"They were form, because they were never been given any chance.. " mark Ezra gravely as he had his distinguish eyes upon me. "Chance to prove their worthy, their existence..."

I knew, this so called class presentation will never be concluded. Therefore I decide to remained numb and not to continue any further. Even though I've lots to say to him, as my mind keeps narrating abundance disappointment and anger towards him.

"Anything else you've got to convey Reem..?" Asked Miss Agnes with a frown.

"No.." I replied shortly with disheartened look mark upon my face.

Just after the bell rang for our break time, Miss Agnes had call both Ezra and me to meet her inside the office. 

"Very interesting presentation just now.." begins Miss Agnes. "Totally out from my current subjects on Rumi and Shams Tabrizi.."

"We just wanted to convey something rare .." state Ezra while I shake my head with annoyance.

"I do enjoy it though, but I strongly felt like this was so one sided job.." rant Miss Agnes as she glared sharply towards me.

"Somehow or rather, I'm thankful to Reem for making that presentation even much more deeper, for all of us to ponder and look upon.." explained Ezra and I guess Ezra must have thought that Miss Agnes was indeed reprimanding me for not being cooperative.

Miss Agnes nodded her head as she was probably, left with no other choice but to agree.

"But still, punctuality is very important Reem.. it portrays your character and integrity.." state Miss Agnes calmly.

"I'm sorry Miss Agnes .." I said faintly. "This will never happen again.."

"Please Miss Agnes, currently Reem was having tight situation, as she's looking after her ailing father..therefore things can be quite unsettling on her side.." Utters Ezra and I'm stunned.

"I'll understand ...All right both of you can go now.." she state. "However, both of you still own me Rumi and Shams Tabrizi though .."

Evening has touches in, as more and more students had begin to leave the college premises. Strangely, this transcending frame has indeed, stirred in too much anguish upon my crumbling will. I had my sight upon Ezra who was seems to be engross with his phone. That weird notion of wanting but hurting keeps spiralling rooted inside me. It seems the harder I've tried to get over with this notions, the deeper my heart enclosing towards him, despite that repulsive intention which he had almost condone me with. But I knew, I need to get over with all this, Ezra needs to be off from the canvas of my thoughts.

"Ezra.." I said coldly.

"Reem.." utters Ezra in startling manner as he quickly place his phone inside the pocket of his pants. He stood up from the bench and amble closer towards me with grieving sorrow mark in his eyes. I just knew, he's hurting too. "Reem, please forgive me." Mutters Ezra with noticeable guilt pave in his voice. "I just don't know what exactly had overcome me... I would never tried to touch and hurt you again.. I swear.." continues Ezra with welling tears framing his eyes.

"It's about Leia..." I begin abruptly. "You can't just push her away, and I belief you might have known about her current situation right now.."

"That child, it can't be mine.." hissed Ezra sharply.

"What do you meant by that?" I asked.

"How could it be mine, when I don't even have the needs of wanting her?" Cried Ezra with pulsing gall.

I look hard upon Ezra with unspoken words ramming in my thoughts. "Unfortunately, I find it hard to belief.." I respond in such disdain tone.

Ezra came even closer towards my chilly form, as he bring his hands and enclose them to both side of my arms. "I'm calling off this engagement .. it is a mistake."

I gently pushed his hands off from my side, as I stood few inches away from him and said, "I'm not going to be meddling with both of your situation. You've got to come back home and settle this between yourselves.."

Ezra distraught notion could be clearly seen written in his eyes, but he remain speechless as he lightly nodded his head.

"After college ends, I've decided to move out.." I state briefly.

"What?" Asked Ezra with shocking mode raging his soul. "But why? How about your dad? What will become of him?"

"That nurse will look after him.." I replied shortly. "Occasionally, I will come over to see through things, making sure everything is okay.."

"It's about us.. isn't it?" He asked.

I remain silent as I had my teary eyes looking straight upon his and then I took my steps and walk away...

The light tapping of the door had immediate cause me to arise from my slumber, in such pulsing manner. I soon realised I've must have fallen asleep close next to it due to that fatigue crying which I was cast to endure that previous evening. I rubbed my eyes with the back of my hands, as I timidly place myself upon the door, in wanting to know who was outside.

"Miss Reem.." he mutters gently.

To my relief, it was Habil. I get myself off from the floor and half opened the door.

"I'm off duty now.." he said, as he gaze upon me with worrying note mark in his eyes.

"Yes of course .." I state, as I lightly nodded my head in acknowledgement. "Let me walk you to the door.." 

"Sure.." he said. "Look, if you can't managed the rest of those payment, I understand.. you don't have to rush" said Habil, with earnest concerned narrates in his tone.

"I'm capable of that.." I snapped. "I'm not that hopeless like what they've always think.."

Habil remain statue, as he still had his sight looking anxious towards my trouble self, and his intense gaze seems to immerse right through my fragmented soul. 

"I'm sorry... I don't mean to be harsh .." I mutters when on that spur moment, he had tenderly wipe my tears off from my face. I was taken aback, and I move few steps away from him.

"I will be back here again later evening .." he said and then he walks away.

I watched as he pass through the gate of our home garden and headed towards a motor bike. I cautiously peeped in between those sheer curtain as he puts on his helmet. Out of a sudden, he turn his sight towards my direction. In a swift, I moved away from the window and decides to go back to my daddy's room. There I saw him sleeping so soundly. I tiptoe closer towards his bed as I glance at him with unspoken words webbing in my thoughts. "Does the fault lies in me? Or was it my mother?"

I could almost remember upon that one typical afternoon, while both my mum and dad were celebrating my eleventh birthday, when suddenly a lady had came barging through our home with raging fits of hatred and anger. There were seems to be having some sort of a massive argument with that lady keeps scoring the details about my mum being the vile being. I clasp both my ears with the palms of my hands as I continue to weep. My mum was being crudely name and terrorised by her words. It's something which I will never forget...

"Reem..." called someone, forcing me to break free from my wrecking thoughts. And to my disgusts, it was Ezra.

"Stay away from me.." I hissed sharply towards him.

"Reem... please forgive me. I wasn't thinking straight yesterday." Utters Ezra gravely as he came closer towards me. 

"Just leave..." I cried but apparently, my words doesn't seems to sip through his head  as he tries to forcefully held me in his arms. With both my fists I hit him hard on his chest and his face.

"You bitch..!" Roared a voice and to my sickening plate, it was Leia, as she storm towards me and drags me away from Ezra's arm.

"Ezra, what's the meaning of all this?" Shouted Leia, causing my dad to stir and moved restlessly in between his blankets. 

"It's about time too Leia, the truth need to be known .." marked Ezra. "My engagement with you, was indeed a biggest mistake which I'm force to go through ..."

"What do you mean by that Ezra?" Asked Leia furiously.

"My heart belongs to Reem..." replied Ezra to my alarming notion as he looks at me with intensity script cast deep in his soul.

And with this intoxicating state, which has just plunge me, I fled towards my room and shut the door behind me.

"How could you played with my heart in such manner? First cut is indeed the deepest.. I've lost you and then fate has let our path to cross again... serenading songs bringing back my memories of you... I just hate myself in dwelling with such thoughts .. what hurt most, you knew how I've always felt for you, but then you cut me and leave me hanging, hoping for something which is indeed impossible..." yelled my inner vents. 

After I had my quick shower, I packed up my notes and shove them in my bag pack as I decides to go straight to my college. Even though, my lessons would only start later in mid afternoon, but I've made up my mind to head down there just to consolidate my disarray soul.

I stepped out from my room and there was Leia looking distraught, as she sat on the couch all by herself. Freda was out again, probably away from this state due to one of her high end conference meeting, which I wouldn't want to care less.. Ezra must have left too.

In a midst, the form guilt begins to shroud my nerves as I took a glimpse upon Leia. "Look, whatever happens between me and Ezra is just a passive notion.." I begins. "I've forsaken his love before and my feeling for him is simply null.." 

Leia still had her weeping self, looking hard towards the coffee table. I waited for a moment and then I decides to just walk away.

"I'm pregnant .." mutters Leia sadly.

I stop as I clenched both my fists tightly around the handle of my bag. "Does he knows?" I asked shortly as I had my sight upon her.

She nods her head tearfully. "Mum must never know about this though .."

"What both of you intend to do now?" I asked again.

"He's not willing to accept it." State Leia faintly. "He wants me to get rid of it.."

"What has indeed become of him?" Rammed my inner speech. "Where have all his significant attributes gone too? His sense of responsibilities, his beautiful manners and kind traits ..?" Continue my raging thoughts. "Probably what my dad had warned me earlier about him is true after all .."

"Reem, I belief this could me the retribution which has pound me, due to my selfish acts." State Leia which leads my soul with riddling note. "I've always known how you've felt for him..."

"Stop saying this kind of crap.." I snapped.

"Three of us have grown up together in this same house.. that includes his late sister." Continues Leia causing the blizzard rift to scar my spirit again. "And I could tell, just by the way you speak to him, the way you look at him. And the fact that, he seems to care too much about you rather then me.."

"That's all our bleak past.. stop bringing it up.." I mutters.

"Maya's drowning in the pool wasn't your fault either..." marked Leia.

"I said enough .." I shouted angrily as I held on to my breaking tears and headed for the door.

That terrifying past, which I've been struggling to untangle my guilt from it. "I've never meant too..." cried my jabbing guts as I quicken my steps. "I'm not crazy...I'm not even aware of what's happening.."

Ezra, was helping out in our orchard with my dad and Freda. His mum was not around as she was sent by Freda to buy some groceries. Therefore, there were left me, Leia and seven years old Maya by the one meter swimming pool. Things were looking fine and blissful at the very beginning of it until Leia begins to say horrid things about my mum.

"Your mum is crazy and weird.. she's not normal and so are you.." begins Leia crudely.

"No.. she's not." I marked with darkening anger engulfing my soul.

"Yes, she was.. she talks to herself and she talks funny.." jabbed Leia again.

"Would you stop it?" I roared.

"If she's normal, she wouldn't have killed herself and the worst straw, she even wanted to kill you too.." mocked Leia cruelly.

In a fit of anger, without second thoughts, I've took Maya's doll which was laying next to me, and flung it into the pool. To my horror, Maya jumps straight for her doll, as she seeing her doll sinking deeper and deeper inside the pool.

"Maya..." I screamed as I dashed towards the  corner of the pool, reaching out my arms as far as I could, almost touching her frantic struggle. Just then, Freda, my dad and Ezra rushed in a huff probably they might have heard the troubled commotion. 

Without hesitation, my dad had jumped into the pool, while Ezra came towards my raving form and pull me closer next to him. I knew and I could simply sense that he was burning courage of hope...hoping that Maya will be all right.

Canvas Thee Thoughts - Blinking Carousel

Canvas Thee Thoughts - Blinking Carousel

Chasing and racing with the trains, dancing while singing in the rain, hiding other kids shoes and sneakers and hoarding the candy shops, licking those lollipops... those were the things, the childhood memoirs of us...between me and Ezra. So long ago but unforgotten. 

I've known him, Ezra when I was barely ten of age and he's two years my senior. There was some thing special and beautiful about him, upon that significant point of time. His cheerfulness, wit and his absolute charm. We met, in such turbulence manner on my part I presume. Me and my dad were queuing, while waiting for our turn for that carousel ride, when suddenly my eyes caught him, pickpocket someone's wallet. I turn petrified, but I remain silent and I couldn't explain what exact notion I was having at that moment. Suddenly his eyes glimpse upon me, with that sense of fear and guilt. I decides to look away and fighting hard not to be bothered too much. When suddenly, I heard shouts and hard beating coming from his direction. And true enough, to my dismay, he was caught red handed by another passerby. He was almost beaten up to a pulp, when my dad decides to intervene.

"Please sir..leave him alone. He's just a child.." state my dad earnestly.

"A child wouldn't be so daring enough as to steal .. what will become of him once he's all grown up? Only God knows.." replied the man that had almost lost his wallet to a kid.

"Yes true.. but have anyone of you ask, why does he needs to steal?" Asked my father, as he came nearer towards Ezra, with me following close next to him. 

"Hungry.. so are both my mother and my little sister.." mutters Ezra coldly, as he swipe his bleeding cut lips.

"Miss...miss..." Whisper a familiar voice.

I woke in a terrifying and shocking notion. 

"It's okay..." he said calmly as I look upon him and soon I realised, he was that same being from the elevator.

"What happen?" I asked as I place my hands upon my ringing temples.

"You've fainted, right after you opened this door, even before you could asked me who am I.." he replied with concerned note mark in his voice.

"What?" I mutters. "Ezra?" I stammered.

"Ezra?" He asked looking lost and kind of confused as he carefully held me up.

I felt like a true idiot with amounting shame enclosing my spirit. "Why are you here?" I asked. "We've meet and I feel so grateful ..." I stopped midway, as I peer towards the front poach where Ezra's car was supposed to be, but it was gone and I feel so glad with sparks of relief.

"I'm Habil..." he replied. "Someone must have call for a private nurse to look after Mr Aaron."

"Oh yes, it was me..I'm the one that had requested for a nurse.. and I thought it was supposed to be.." I said looking kind of doubtful.

"A lady?" He asked with a doting smile.

"Yeah.." I said meekly.

"I hope, it's not that disappointing ." he state.

"Oh no..not at all.." I said. "Please come on in.." I continues as I led him into my home. He followed me from behind as I walked him into my dad's room.

"Daddy, this is Habil..." I said softly, as I took his hand and bring it close to my face. Tears begins to well up in my eyes and I used all the courage not to let it fall. My dad's hand trembles lightly in between my grip as he was trying to wipe them away, off from my face.

"Hello sir.. I'm Habil.." he begins as he place his sling back upon the edge of the side table and pace closer next to my father.

"I've read through his report.." Utters Habil with his sight looking straight at my frail form. "He will walk again ... trust me." Continues Habil with that illumine smile of hope cast upon his looks.

"What's this?" Cried stern voice and indeed I'm not surprised cause it was Freda my step mum, barging inside my father's room with Leia.

"This is Habil...." I said. "He's a private nurse which I've called in to look after my dad.." I explained.

"A private nurse?" Asked Freda with a smirk. "And who's going to pay for his service? You?" Marked Freda mocking my effort.

"You don't need to worry about that... I've already settle part of the payment.." I state.

"Yes mam, I've received those payment yesterday... " mark Habil as he took his sling bag and dug through them, probably looking for those transaction receipt.

"Don't mind that.." intrude Freda with a darkening note of anger cast in her eyes, as she glared at me with hate and disgust. "I just want to see how far you can go with that mere salary of yours.. you cheap whore."

With those words being thrown unjustly at me, all I could do was blinking my warm tears away like a fool. And with that form, I ran out from my father's room and headed straight towards the basement where my room was situated, slamming shut the door right behind me. I sank on the floor with my back against the door as I continue to weep.

Canvas Thee Thoughts - Ponder Route

"I could take it from here.." I marked as I pull my hands away from him. "Thank you.." I said, as I took my pace and walks away. But deep beneath my soul, I knew returning back home will never ever be the same again.

And just as I thought, my rancid ordeal would never end there, when I saw Ezra's car upon the front poach of my home. 

With a dampening courage, I headed straight towards the front door. In that sphere moment my name was called. It was Leia, my step sister.

"Where the hell have you been?" She asked sharply. "You darn knew I need my notes.."

I looked at her with warm tears surging in my eyes and I could almost sense that Ezra was staring hard at me. Frantically, I place my hands inside my bag pack, as I rummage through it, for those history notes, which I've written and copied during my class earlier that morning. "Here.." I said shortly as I place them on the coffee table.

"Could you bring an ice pack.. Some idiot has hurt Ezra in such cowardly manner..." rant Leia, who is apparently her fiancée.

"He deserved worst shit than this.." cried my thoughts, but all I could do was walk straight ahead towards my father's room. There he was laying on his bed, looking so lost and confused. I crept slowly towards him with burning thoughts of anguish and sadness pawn inside my head. And then I lay on him as I begin to wept tearfully. "I promised you dad, we will retain back what's belongs to us..." I whispered.

"Reem.." it was Ezra much to my fear.

"What..?" Before I could said another word, he had managed to shut the door in a flashed and drag me off from my father. I've wanted to scream but all I could project was yet another tears of fears. 

"Why can't we be like how we used to be?" He marked as he restrain me with his body upon the laminate floor of the bedroom.

"This is not like how we used to be.." I stammered as I struggle to get his hands off from my wrist. 

"We are meant to be as one.. you've always known how I've felt for you.. for us.." he cried.

"You used to be my best friend." I mutters sorrowfully. "Yes, I've to accept my stupid mistake for allowing this foolish heart of mine to fall for you...but you've used me just to fit your purpose.."

"I didn't know, my engagement was arranged to be with Leia, I thought it was to be with you.." mark Ezra.

"But you still accepted it....despite you've known .." I said with dejected form rant in my voice.

And with those words spoken, he had his lips ramming hard against mine with his hands roughly tearing part of my blouse. I knew his mean and hideous intention again. "You've managed to run away from me just now, but not this time..." he state coldly as he begins to removed his pants.

"Dad.." I cried as loud as I could. "No..." I whimpered tearfully, but his darkening desire of wanting me has indeed blinded his senses.

"Leia has left to fetch that old hatch from the airport.... so there's left only us and your pathetic Father.... he rant with a smirk. I knew to safe my honour, I need to fight hard. Like how I've managed to get myself away from his clutches that earlier incident. I was tricked by him, thinking it was just a mere meet up, due to our class project which we both need to complete, before our semester holidays touches in. Still thinking that Ezra will never hurt me, since we used to be best of friends way back than during our childhood days, and ultimately that platonic emotions, had indeed transcends to something even much more deeper, that is love, until he played with my heart by accepting his engagement proposal with Leia. 

But that was not his main agenda by asking me to come over to his home after all, it was something else. He had wanted to tarnish me. At first, upon that notion, I had almost thought it was just a simple embrace and hugs like how it used to be, until he had begin to lightly brush his lips against mine. I was taken aback and I drew myself away from him but, he still got his arms around me. And that's where he decides to overdraw his lines when he begins to unbuttoning my blouse. Upon that agonising moment, I've managed to push him away from me and gave him a hard slap across his startled face. And with this scene, I took on my heels and ran off from his home until that elevator held up incident, where I've accidentally meet my saviour. 

And here again,  I was force to endure this heart wreaking situation. I cried, struggle and plead, as hard as I could beneath his clutches but, he just wouldn't care less as he  continues to forcefully submerging his blizzard wants. When suddenly, the door bell rang causing him to stop his sickening route upon me which fortunately he had failed to attempt. And without second thoughts, I kick his groin with my knee, and forcefully pushed him away from my trembling form. 

With my hands still shivering due to this shocking vibe which had just befall me, I struggle to grab my father's warm cardigan and put that on, as I ran out from that room and headed straight towards the door, hoping it was aunt Freda and Leia. However to my stunning note, it was that same being that had safe me from Ezra. He seems to look kind of shocked and surprised seeing me again, probably seeing me looking distraught with fear.

Canvas Thee Thoughts - Uplift And Held

Regrets. The corse word that has indeed seems to be deeply rooted in my soul. Regret for pawning my soul with this seemingly one sided affair.. Have I've been too caring? Am I a failure? I just couldn't answer .. probably I'm just been too naive and stupid... I've wanted to end this trashing hurt, but the quicker I ran, the more hurdle came crossing my path... These whimsical  thoughts kept pounding in my mind and it begins to get more frequent.

"Reem..." he called frantically, as frantically as I kept on pressing upon the button of the elevator.

"Come on.." rammed my thoughts and in a split moment, I felt my hand has been roughly tugged and held by him, Ezra the form that had left me hanging with clueless thoughts, of been wanted and so unwanted.

"Just leave me.." I cried as I struggle to get his grip off from my wrist.

"I'm sorry....I don't meant too.." pleads Ezra.

Suddenly, the elevator door has open and without hesitation, I pulled my hands away from him and quickly dashed inside the elevator.. pressing the close door button with trembling guts. Ezra had almost jump in but the door shuts just before he managed to enter. It seems this elevator has really been aging, for it has indeed lost its senses and was moving gravely slow.

I knew, I'm breaking down as I could feel my tears welling in my eyes. I wrapped myself with my arms as I begin to wept quietly.

"Is everything all right?" Asked a voice.

I was startled with shocking notion for I thought, there was nobody else inside the elevator.

I quickly turned to look at him, as he stood there apparently staring soberly towards me. "I'm okay .." I replied shortly as I turned to look away.

Suddenly, the lighting of the elevator begins to flicker, but thankfully it remains brightly lit or I will bound to freak out, if I were to remain in darkness alone with him. However, my relief was short live, when suddenly the elevator stops abruptly.

"Oh my, I think we are trapped.." he mark as he place his fingers upon the ringing button,  slightly touching mine for I had intend to press that particular button too.

I quickly drew my fingers away from him with a panic stricken mark across my face.

"I'm sorry.." he said with concern trade note in his almond shape eyes. 

"Darn.." I mutters when I realised that I've left my phone at Ezra's home much to my annoyance.

"Maybe the old fashion way might still works.." he said sheepishly with a grin as he continues to press the ringing button.

"Yeah.." I responded shortly and then together we both begin to bang hard upon the elevator doors. "Hello.. anyone!!!" 

"Hello.. we are trap .." he continues. "And kind of lost here.."

"Lost?" I asked. "We won't be lost in an elevator.."

"We might just not know.. which floor this elevator had decides to stop. It could either be level with the opening door or it could be caught in between the walls..." he remarks.

"Caught in between the walls." I stammered not because I was afraid with those walls, but it seems like how my current situation had grind me with. "It was a mistake.." I whispered.

"I'm sorry?" He asked. 

I remain statue as tears of regrets begins to fill my eyes. 

"Please don't be alarmed.. we will be out of this elevator soon.." he said calmly as he came closer towards me with that soothing smile cast upon his sharp features.

Unknowingly, he had bring his hand and lightly brush the tears off from my face. I feel even more perturbed as I had my eyes upon him with so many ridiculous thoughts webbing in my head. Upon that weird note, I just wished the elevator would never moved again. When out of sudden, the elevator door opened and there stood several people which include Ezra looking anxiously towards me.

I quickly dashed through away from them especially from Ezra. But I was not quick and strong enough as Ezra yet again had roughly pull me closer towards him and drags me along with him.

I cried tearfully as I struggle to get myself away from his grip, however he had managed to pull me to a corner and pinned me hard against the wall.

"I'm not doing this anymore.." I mutters in between my sob, but he didn't care as he brings his face closer towards mine and begins to terrorised my lips. "Please Ezra stopped hurting me like this.." I plead tearfully.

Suddenly, someone had intensely pull Ezra away from me, and it was that almond eye guy. Without second thoughts, he threw a hard punch upon Ezra nose, probably fracturing it.

"Know the limits.. if she says stop and no.." he hissed furiously and with those words, he took my hand taking me away from Ezra.. away from everything.. I supposed.
