Please listen it while reading.

Enjoy!!

Ethan and I both held the hatred with the stare. I couldn't believe this moment cause that's when I saw a delinquent who was being vindictive for something which mattered more than me.

His rosy cheeks like rice cakes, his plumpy lips and the narrator of his soul, his empty eyes were all unappealing right now.

I flounced towards him in pure anger, but my body halted when he tossed my ring in air before catched it.

"Stay where you are Love or," He held the ring in his finger over the iron railing of the bridge. My heart stopped.

"NO ETHAN!, DON'T!, WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO ME!" I screamed with my whole self. Due to the storm there were barely people around us.

I did believe in fate but never once I thought our fate would take us somewhere here. I'd known him for all my life, a whole year when we were together, that's what I counted as my whole.

"How dare you put this on, WHY YOU EVEN TOOK IT!" He counter questioned with the same pitch.

I didn't understand his words. What's the problem with wearing mom's ring. But If I think he had problem with everything.

"I knew something was going on between you two. You're more pathetic than I thought," The clouds roared with the purple light dazzled, illuminated our bodies.

"What's wrong with you?, When did you become so evil Ethan?" I Softly asked sobbing with two steps forward towards him but he stopped me again.

It frustrated me so much that I couldn't know what goes in his mind. Only If I could read maybe I could help. Just one misunderstanding took us to something we never imagined. Even I did try to cleared it out, I was still stuck to where he left me.

"Of course nothing is wrong with me but you, it hurt me to see you wearing this today. So you two are together now, great! Have fun!" My eyes frowned with my heavy drained lashes blinked in confusion.

What? When did Nate come in this?

"What?-" I got cut off when he chuckled loudly. The cold wind made me shiver as I blinked the fog in my eyes.

"Let's end this, I didn't call you to return this but to make you witness what happens when someone try to steal what's mine," His words made my eyes widened.

My knees finally gave up and I fell on them against the ground. My anxiety made my hand trembled badly. How could be this merciless. Even God forgives than why he couldn't.

No I wouldn't let him do this.

"IT'S MY MOM'S ETHAN, Please...It's my mom's," I begged as he turned back around with a smirk. My cry was echoing in air but only he couldn't hear them.

"You want me to believe that?" He jeered loudly at me. M eyes were closed as my head started to hurt badly.

Shit! Not now.

"I SWEAR ON HER! Please give It back Ethan, I'll leave you forever, I won't come in your way!"

For the next second I didn't hear anything. I was on my knees for him. One could get so hopeless in this situation.

"SHUT UP, STOP SWEARING WHEN YOU KNOW YOU'RE LYING!" His words were faint and muffled to my ear. I blinked again and again.

Black dots started to cover my vision as I blinked but it wouldn't go away. And then one last time I looked over Ethan before I lost it.

"I__s-swear," My body fell sideways on the cold, wet ground.

°°°°°°

My anger turned into unshed tears. I knew what I was doing what something I could never think of to do, but I was in denial. I couldn't ask myself.

"I__s-swear," Her weak muffled voice melted in my ear. The fact I knew she would never false swear on her mother made my eyes widened in realization.

But there was no more sound. No begging, no breathing. The only sound that was lucid to me was the pattering of rain.

Why was she not speaking anymore?

I turned around slowly in fear and what I saw hit me like the thunder just fell on my entire existence.

Aria was lying on the ground.

Shit!!

The umbrella I was holding fell from my hand as I sprinted off to her.

"Hey! Aria?" I took her limb body in my arms and tap her cheek slightly then harshly. As I jerked her body more close to myself, I saw blood. Her right side of the head was bleeding.

Her eyes were closed and it scared me to core.

What the hell happened!?

I scooped her body in my arms with my one hand under her neck and other under her legs and rushed to the heavily running road before shouted for taxi.

At this point I couldn't remember where I parker my car nor I had time to think. The driver of the taxi came out and opened the door as I sat on the backseat with Aria still unconscious in my arms.

I kept on calling her name as the driver stepped on the gas and soon we reached the hospital. This stupid heart was feeling hers heartbeat.

"Where's the doctor?" My voice was full of panic as one nurse rushed to me and guided me inside. We both were soaked but Aria's face was more pale.

Don't please, I silently prayed.

°°°°°°°

I squinted my eyes to adjust to this light in the room. My head hurt slightly like some headache. There was silence as just some women in scrubs were walking around.

Hospital.

It was still night time.

I got up and sat up when one nurse came to me smiling.

"How are you feeling now?" Her question made me remember everything what happened to me.

Ethan, the bridge, mom's ring.

My eyes wide opened on the thought.

Did he throw it?

"Hey calm down, you're okay, thank God that guy took you here," Informing me with a smile was tucked on her face, she checked my vitals.

Ethan?

"It was just external bleeding not severe, you can leave now if you want," My hand touched my head to feel there was a bandage wrapped around it.

"But-

"Miss Aria?" I turned towards the voice. It was an old man probably in his forties with black hair but some hidden white strands came in the general ward's door. He was dressed in black suit like some bodyguard.

"I'm Mr. Kim, I work for Andersons but mostly for young master I mean Ethan Anderson. He called me to take you home safely when you wake up," He said politely.

I looked at him with perplexed expressions. Not that I didn't believe Anderson's wouldn't have servants but why would Ethan tell him to take me home safe?

I stood up and started to make my way out of the hospital. I had to take my ring back. The cold wind made me shiver slightly but then I looked down and a long cedar brown coat. It was Ethan's for sure. But there was no way I would give it back now. I did despise him but wasn't idiot to go out in this cold.

"Miss Aria wait!" Mr. Kim said as he walked passed and stood in front of me. He stuffed his hand in his pocket and took out something.

It was my ring.

"Young Master gave this said to give this to you. He also said to drop you back home safely Please," Just as he spoke, a black and luxurious car came to halt in front of us. Mr. Kim opened the back door for me.

"I'm sorry sir but I wouldn't get in this expensive thing especially if the owner is Ethan. Tell him that I'm fine maybe physically but what he did today had given me some inner scars which might be burning inside me forever," I took the ring from him and made my way to the bus stop.

The rain had stopped but the puddles here and there were reminding me the storm that destroyed my bones today.

The pain was still here.

The car though never left me alone as it continued to follow me. It was there when I entered the gate of my house.

I didn't comprehend Ethan's plan behind this too, if there was one.

°°°°°°

Hmm okay, stay behind that bus until she reach her home," I cut off the call of Mr. Kim as he informed me. I sighed deeply as I tried to breathe without feeling what asshole shit I did today.

What was wrong with me?

The lights were dimmed in my room as I was standing to the closed door of my balcony.

When Aria left the club earlier today, I found her ring under the bench she was sitting.

I didn't believe Ester when she told me about Nate giving that beautiful ring to Aria but when she showed me the proof I couldn't held the anger.

"I don't believe your bullshit Ester. Just leave me the f*ck alone!" I snarled to her but she blocked my path again and took out her phone. A video was playing on it, but there was no sound.

Aria had her back to the camera but she wasn't alone. Nate was with her. They talked for a while before he took out a black box and gave it to her.

The video ended there before she started another. This one had Gwen and Aria. Nate was nowhere.

"Where did you get this ring Aria? It's so beautiful," She asked Aria.

This time the audio was clear.

The ring was completely shown in her finger. She then whispered something in Gwen's ear which was not audible. But the way they reacted.

HOW DARE HE!

I pushed her and got out of the school. After that I was in no mood. When I saw both of them smiling while practicing, it infuriated me more.

I ran my hand through my hair before fisted them tightly in anger.

"Argh!!" I growled when the door opened behind me and lavender scent filled my walls of solitude. Mom stepped towards me and stood silent devouring the dark sky which was now calm after the tempest.

"You wanna share what's wrong? Why were you so mad when you came back earlier?" We weren't looking at each other.

I sighed and dropped my head down in shame. I didn't realize that where I was dragging myself with his rage inside me. What happened today I told her everything. Even though I felt mortifying but I knew she would help me.

"Do you realize what you did today was so shameful Ethan?" Her voice pierced through me as her elliptical eyes gleamed with remorse.

"I told you this before that the anger, the rage, you've build in yourself will burn you first and the are something no one could see but they'll always be there to hurt you time to time," Her words were true and she was calm.

"I know mom and I...feel dreadful. I don't even recognize myself. I'm sorry," My voice broke but I didn't let the fall out.

"Don't apologize to me Ethan, go to her and clear everything out son. Ask yourself," She put her finger on my chest to my heart. "Did this heart really fell for fallacy?"

I knew what she meant. The answers were here but I never tried to read them. I had to apologize to Aria as soon as I could and It was time to clear the air.

Mom left and I dropped myself on my bed, staring at the ceiling before close my eyes and sighed. The guilt was here and it'd still here till I talk to Aria.
