Anna's POV:

What exactly this place is?

I again looked around, but I did not understand which place it is?

I again looked at Mark, and his face is still red out of furious at me...

It's better to say the facts to him, he may scold or shout at me but I should stay strong and should say to him everything about the message I got from my dad and why I went to the airport and I will also say to him about my education loan, these are the two I hide from Mark. I know it's too late but at least now I should say to him clearly that what happened and why I hide them, and I am sure he will understand immediately or he may take time but I am sure he will definitely understand me and take care of me like as usual...

Come on, Anna…

Stay calm and convey everything to him clearly, I take all my strength by taking a long breath and spell out his name while he is busy in walking speedily by holding my wrist.

Anna: Mark..!

(he suddenly stopped walking and immediately looked at me with his dagger sharp eyes. I feel like I will turn to ashes with his angry looks, all my strength was gone in one second and in the next second, he started walking towards the palace and did not care for what reason I called him…

Come on. Anna…

You have to explain to him everything…

I again tried to explain to him...)

Anna: Mark..

Please wait, I need to talk to you...

(He listened to me but he immediately turned his face to another side as a hint that he is not interested to listen to me and he did not respond to me and continued walking towards the palace.

It may not the right time, but I should say to him at least now and every second passed by it leads to damage the fragile of our love, so I should not delay further. I again tried to speak to Mark.)

Anna: "Mark, I am so sorry, I know I hurt your feelings, but I didn't do it intentionally, so please try to understand me.

I should have told you about my dad's message before I went to the airport but I was messed up with my feelings and it's true Mark, my dad is in no way related to Ria's case you will understand after the investigation has done..."

(Shit…

Shit…

Why did I say about my dad?

He is already furious at me and he will be more furious if I say about my dad…

Shit, Anna…

You always do brainless acts…

Just say to him about the messages and about the education loan, that's it…

In between my thoughts, we entered into the palace and in a few steps, we entered into the hall of the palace. The moment we entered into the hall, Mark immediately pushed me away...

I got imbalanced and fell on the floor of his sudden action…

Actually, I am shocked by Mark's action, I didn't expect he will push me on the floor. I immediately turned my face to look at Mark by raising my head and tried to request him but I don't have the strength to speak to Mark because my heart is filled with pain when he pushed me away as if I am nothing to him…

Come on, Anna, you need to convey what happened exactly, if you didn't convey it's very tough to handle Mark.

I swallowed my cry and speak out again.)

Anna: Mark...

Please listen to me...

(I said with my shivering tone...)

Mark: Shut up, Anna...

(Mark shouted at me very loudly, his voice was echoed the entire hall and my body filled with shivers, I am scared...

I don't know what to do?

and I don't know how to convince him but Mark is the only hope for me to live so I again tried…)

Anna: Mark...

Mark: Shut up, Anna...

Don't dare to speak one more word...

If you dare to speak, I don't know what I will do to you...

(He again shouted at me, so I stay quiet and tears started rolling down from my eyes. I feel helpless; Mark is the only person I left, but now I feel like he will leave me…

Noo…

No…

No, Anna, he won't leave you…

Yes, Mark doesn't leave me, I know deep down in my heart he is still loving me…

So if I stay patient he will definitely understand the situation…

I know Mark is mad at me but what hurts me the most is I did not expect that he will push me in such a way and shouted at me to don't speak to him...

I started taking deep sobbings when I get the flash of the incident, Mark immediately came close to me and grip my chin tightly and make me to look at him and I am looking at him with my blurred vision.)

Mark: On the first day we met, I worried when I looked at your teary eyes Anna; You know on that day I fall in love with you…

I don't know why I fall in love with you…

I feel like you are very precious to me and I wish I want to take care of you from every side…

But…

You…

(Mark's eyes are wet and I started crying more when I looked tears in his eyes. I can't bear to look at him in such a way…

All this happened just because of my stupid decisions…

I wish I want to make him happy every second, but now…

I can't take it easy when I looked at his wet eyes, I tried to turn my face but Mark tightens his grip and makes me to look at his face.)

Mark: Why are you crying, Anna?

I should cry for the acts you did to me...

It is easy for you to play with one's emotions, right?

But there should be a limit for everything, Anna...

Don't you think I am a human and I don't have feelings?

Don't you think my heart hurts when you cheated on me?

How you will know about it because you don't have the heart to understand my feelings on you...

It's very comedy for you to look at me in this position, right?

Anna: Mark...

I called his name with my shivering tone to stop his harsh words in between my deep sobbings. What he just said?

Cheated?

Did he just say that I cheated on him?

Hiding my dad's message with my mixed emotions is cheating?

How can he blame me in such a way?

When I busy in my thoughts, he immediately grips my throat with his hand, I feel suffocated and my heart filled with pain for his harsh actions...

Mark: I told you to don't speak out a word, Anna, and how dare you to try to cover all of your mistakes with your fake lame cry?

Do you still think I will fall for your fake lame tears again?

(By finishing his words, he pushed my head away and leaves my throat. I immediately coughed and fell on the floor, I don't have the strength to digest the situation but I am trying to take a long breath to get stabilise...

Fake lame tears?

Can't he understand the pain I take?

I understand he is not in a mood to listen to me a single word. I can't do anything now except to accept his Furious statements on me and he said my tears are fake, how can he says that?

Does he think I cheated him?

Why he is so rage and didn't even in a position to listen to me?)

Mark: It's all my sister's fault...

She too trust everyone like I do, and at last she lost her life by trusting a friend like you. If she stays far away from you she will be alive by now...

(I am shocked the moment I listened to Mark's words...

What does he mean?

Did he say Ria died just because she trusted me?

How can he say that?

And yes, I agree what Mark says, and yes, I know if Ria is not my friend she will be alive by now because she might have not come to my home on that day and the tragedy may not happen but it doesn't mean I am responsible for her death...

Actually, it takes so much time for me to get out of the depression caused for her loss in my life and Mark knows it well, then how can he say those critical words?

How can he say that I cheated Ria too?

The incidents are noway related to Ria, she is my best friend from my childhood and I always take care of her and never tried to cheat her...

And now Mark is saying that I cheated him, how can he say that?

I just didn't inform him about my dad messages and I am in totally in an ethical dilemma by that time and went to the airport to convince him to attend my wedding. I don't mean to hurt Mark and I don't mean to cheat Mark...)
