"Remember whose girl you're talking to, Mr. Conner."

I jerked around and saw Adam kicking the entrance with a rage building inside him.

"Adam...?" I mumbled.

Luke laughed. "God, Rose. I didn't know you'd bring your manipulator here to protect you." Luke meets Adam's cold stare. "I knew you would come here, Adam." He smirked. "Long time no see."

Adam arched his brow. "I don't wanna waste my time arguing with you." He steps a bit closer to us. "You wouldn't believe it even if the God himself shows in front of you, isn't it?

"What..." Luke said, confused. "are you talking about?"

Adam blew out a breathless laugh. "You still accuse me for... your family...? You don't even believe, Rosie?"

It's been a long time since I have heard my real name from his mouth. Or he'd always call me 'Cara Mia'. It's just... good...yeah...good to hear ...uh..

"Why would I believe her after knowing that you manipulated her?" Luke's voice grew a little louder. "You even tried to manipulate the army too... but when they didn't believe you, you ran away and started your...this..." Luke gestured his hand to represent Adam. "this shit..."

I was standing, my legs buried on the floor. The scene where I was witnessing two cousins arguing was like watching an argument in an action movie.... God! Why am I even comparing them with movies!?

"That's none of your concern." Adam bit out. "I ran away just because I didn't want to get in prison for no reason at all. If I haven't done anything wrong, why would I take it on my head?"

Luke chuckled. "That's too easy for you to say, Adam. But finally," Luke meets my gaze. "You completed my task, Rose. Thank you so much for helping me."

I stiffed. What the hell was he talking about? Adam was also looking at me with his jaw tight.

"Beg your pardon?" I asked, glancing at Adam and Luke.

"Oh dear," Luke laughed again. "I am not talking about the contacts, it means nothing to me. It was just to attract Adam to see me in person, and you did it. I am proud of you, darling."

"Watch your mouth!" Adam suddenly shouts.

Luke smirked at him. "So possessive, huh? I have never seen you like that before, Adam. Impressive."

"What do you mean by, you wanted to see Adam in person?" I jumped in, ignoring the last convo. "Why?"

Luke glanced at his watch and rubs it clean. "You'll know it in few minutes." He blowed at his watch and rubs it again. "This time... Adam you'll not be spared."

This time? What does he meant by 'This time'? I looked at Adam and he was continuously examining the garage.

Luke hooks his hand in air. "Five!" he says.
"Four!"

Oh god!

"Three!"

He's counting...

"Two!"

But for what!?

"One!"

"Rosie, Watch Out!!" Adam jumps and pulls me onto the ground as the car beside me just exploded.

Luke watched us, grinning. "Impressive, Adam. But you can't avoid it any longer." And he took out a gun from his pocket and shoots Adam in his chest.

Adam flinched in pain.

"Adam!" My eyes widened. "Luke! You're insane!!"

"You haven't seen my insanity yet." He winked, still grinning at me.

A tear slid down from my eyes. "Adam!" My voice came out in a form of whisper.

"It's okay," Adam hissed. "I've been shot several times. I'll be...o-kay" his voice cracked.

"Luke shot you before as well?" I asked with a serious look on my face.

He shook his head. "N-o...but his men...ow!... His men did ..." He was so in pain. It's because it's the first time he has been shot in the chest, cause others were on his stomach, back, forearms or shoulders.

My body was filling up with rage. I was a doctor, who saves others' lives. But right now, I wanted to murder Luke. I don't want to see him in front of my sight.
I slowly started carring Adam by his shoulders but then...Fuck!! I guess the people who just came in are.... Luke's Men.

Before I could say anything, Luke's Men rushed towards me and snached Adam from my arms, forcefully. Adam tried to fight but earned a punch in return.
I tried to fight but I was too weak for them that they gripped both of my hands.

My heart will explode right now!

"Goddamit, Luke! I am gonna kill you right now!" I said, my eyes getting red with rage.

He giggled. "You? You're gonna kill me?.... Huh...stop dreaming." He gestured at his men. "You think you're gonna kill me in front of them?"

His men gave another punch on Adam's stomach. I could literally feel his pain right now. He was almost unconscious.

Another tear slipped. "Luke... Please tell your men to let go of us! Please! I am begging you!"

"And why do you think I would do that?" Luke raised his eyebrows. "I will definitely spare you but not him. You can still come by my side, Rose. Don't choose wrong over right."

"That's what I am doing, Luke!" I cried. "I am choosing the right, and he is Adam! Luke, I still want you to change your decision." I took in a short breath. "You still have a member of your family, your cousin, and he's innocent! He didn't kill any of your parents, Luke! You couldn't protect them but at least save your cousin. You're doing wrong, really wrong with him." I bit out.

Luke stayed silence for a few seconds. And then he gulps and says, "What makes you think he's innocent? Even if he was the one who contacted them and not only contacted them, he even had given a proper description about me and my family to get us killed?" He sighed. "Why the hell do you trust him? He is not trustworthy, Rose. No one has ever believed him, Rose, then why you?" His voice was a bit soft but loud this time.

His sudden voice tone change increased my curiosity. His tone is like, he already knew all of it. Like, he knew that he is innocent but don't wanna believe.

"Because..." I finally managed to say. "I- I...I love him..." A small tear drop slides down my cheek. "If you love anyone, you would have faith in them, you would believe them even if all the world is against him." I blinked. "And... Most importantly, you'll never betray their emotions, even if they don't show much affection... you should have faith that whatever is going on might be complicated but the right time would surely come." My breath hitched. "Luke... Adam is really innocent. I don't want you to lose another member of the family of yours. If you try to believe and understand him... You'll be able to live the happiest life ever with him."

"Luke..." I continued. "I want you to accept your misunderstanding. Please..." I begged.

Luke stares at me for a minute, trying really hard to hold back his tear. He rests his palms on his forehead and bits out a tired laugh. "Rose..." He says. "I am really a bastard, ain't I?"

I stared at him in confusion.

"I am a bastard, an asshole... all the worst possible things you can say to me." He continues. "I am..." he hesitates. "I am a horrible child who..." He took a long breath. "who killed his own parents."

The floor slipped beneath my feet. I looked at Adam who was staring at Luke with complete pale face. He was still half unconscious but he could hear and understand what he was saying.

"What...-"

I tried to say something but he cut me off. "My parents loved me a lot before Adam stepped in my life. He snached everything from me. My parents, their love and all the attention." His tears were still filling his eyes. "Adam's success was everything for them, but mine... Nothing."

"That's because Adam had no one by his side!" I yelled. "You still had parents but he didn't had, that's why they tried their best to make him happy. Why didn't you understand!?" I snapped. "You ruined everything!"

"You weren't in my place!" He snapped back. "You don't know how I felt when they gave all attention to Adam. I was their own child. You don't know how it feels to be ignore by your own parents!" He wiped his tears from his eyes.

"I know." He continued. " I know I lost my control and...and got killed my own parents but... M-my..." His voice cracked. "My...feelings were already d-dead a long ago..."

I was about to say something but just then Adam popped up.

"Still want to kill me, Luke...?" His voice was deep and was trying really hard to hide the pain.

Luke looked at him and laughs sarcastically. "I really, really want kill you right now...but.." he glanced and pointed at me. "Your woman... she made me feel literally... literally disgusted by myself right now." He pressed his forehead against his palm. "I want to kill you....but... But I am not able to..."

"Fuck it!" Adam groaned. "Better you kill me as fast as possible or just tell your men to let go off me."

Luke stared at Adam for a few seconds and gulped. He fidgeted his men in order to leave this place and in just a minute... the whole garage was empty except us three.

Adam stepped trembling towards...not me...but Luke.

He rested his hand on Luke's shoulder. "Luke..." He says and tries to hide the anger inside him. "You did this, it was all your mess which had become my worst nightmare. But you still have time to stop this and get back to your senses."

Luke chuckled. "First time, Adam." He says. "For the first time I am watching you forgiving someone so easily."

Adam's jaw tightened.

"But..." He continued. "I guess there's nothing we can do now. Your forgiveness can do nothing this time... cause..." He took in a sharp breath. "What's written in our destiny can't be erased."

Adam's eyebrows twitched. And I was staring at Luke with a pale face.

"What..." I said. "do you mean...?"

Luke looks at me with a soft expression. "Nothing, Rose." He said smiling at me. "It's just that today is the end of us..." I was still confused. He continues. "I contacted the same terrorists today... they will be here any minute."
