Chapter 19
*Andrew Pov*
"See, I think all this revenge thing is enough. Tell me where she is." I said finally fed up with his behavior.
"I am taking you there only, right?" he asked still walking before me while I am following him, which is as per his orders.
"We are travelling too slowly. For the past two days you have made me go to many places, but not to the right place." I replied shaking my head.
"You know even though you are right, it is not my revenge. I am following someone else orders as you reaching near her two days back would have caused too much trouble." He said turning back while I frowned at him.
"She knows I am coming to meet her?" I asked, to which he shook his head smiling.
"No! I didn't tell her and will not do that until you reach near her. For now I am adding the revenge I need to take on her too for worrying all of us with the mission she took for you." He replied in a serious tone.
"See that tall tree? Go near it and you will find the way." He said and I turned to see the tall tree as he said but it is too far.
"Are you telling the truth?" I asked, to which he chuckled and walked near to me.
"Don't hurt her, Andrew. You will get hurt in the return." He said in a threatening tone.
"Do you really think I will harm a girl and that too Victor's daughter?" I asked him raising my eyebrow.
"I am not talking about physical hurt because I know she can take care of herself. But I am talking about emotional hurt. She has been through a lot already." He replied and started walking away through the direction we came.
"And don't worry about the revenges, I will take them with you soon." He added while I shook my head and started walking towards that tree.
What is she doing in another forest? This is near to many villages, but still what work does she have here or what home? I thought and reached the tree within half an hour.
"Damn it!" I mumbled when I saw nothing near the tree and no one is there.
He really took the revenge! I thought, frowning and stepped forward only to feel myself falling deep into something.
"What?" I screamed feeling the thumping of my heart and tapped beside me to see I am on the ground and moved my legs to check whether they are working.
I sighed in relief and started thinking how to get back at him for this stunt and glanced up only to still I my place.
There she is sitting on the other side of this hole with her knees pushed to her chest ad a frown covering her face.
"What are you doing here?" I asked, to which her frown left the face and she leaned back on the dirt.
"Shouldn't I be the one who asks that question?" she asked back.
"Sam!" I replied and she nodded.
Then we both heard a beep and she turned before taking a small device from the ground. She placed that near her ear and started nodding her head.
"So, you are here to know answers." She stated after keeping the device away.
"How do you know?" I asked her frowning.
"Sam!" she replied and I nodded.
"Ask away!" she added while I nodded again before thinking what to ask.
"First of all, I need to know how were you able to say those many lies so easily?" I asked still thinking what to ask.
"Because I said very little lies." Her reply made me pause in my thinking.
"What? So, you mean you generally say so many lies, but in this mission there were few compared to them." I elaborated to which she shook her head in negative.
"No! My lies to you can be taken nearly as nill as they can be counted by finger tips." She explained.
"You are lying again right now, Lily. Everything you uttered is nothing but a lie." I said, feeling the anger returning.
"No! I know what I said and let me assure you that they are not lies." She said stubbornly.
"Your name and age were itself lies, Lily." I said, sighing and still feel the anger, remembering how I got into a relationship with a girl who is literally a kid.
"No! You can check my records in the base and you will see the same details. From the past eight years they became true. And we all know when for so many years one thing is followed then it is assumed as true. What I said was just twisted truth, but not the lie." She explained while I sat still.
"Really? Then let's start with your first lie shall we. Where is this Simon, who is your boyfriend and whom you love?" I asked raising my eyebrow.
I still can't believe that I felt jealous, anger and so many things for a non-existent person.
"Yes! I lied." She replied, nodding.
"See? This is just the beginning of your lies." I said smirking.
"But I only lied about the name but not everything." She said shrugging.
"What do you mean?" I asked, frowning at her words.
"What I mean is whatever I said about Simon is true, except the name." she replied and moved a little before looking up.
"So, you really love someone and whatever you said is true?" I asked, glaring at her for continuing the lies.
"Yes! And the guy is you only. I named you as Simon I my head." She replied kneeling down and turned showing her back to me while I sat still in my place along with my breathing trying to continue in a normal place.
What is she saying? I thought, rubbing my forehead and then stared at her. What does she mean by those words?
"You mean you feel for me during this mission?" I asked, to which she shook her head still not looking back.
"No! It was from the past eight years." She replied while I coughed hearing her words.
Eight years? Is she mad? Or does she think I am mad? I thought groaning and held my head.
And that Simon guy is myself? I thought and let out a chuckle. So, I was jealous of myself? I shook my head and immediately frowned.
Why am I thinking all this nonsense even after knowing she is a kid? I should stop all these thoughts and make her understand her craziness.
Atleast I can do that for saving my life and for being Victor's daughter. I need to remove all the memory of her from my mind and start my life anew.
Now only I am not feeling that strong for her after getting to know her name and age mainly. And I can't forget her Dad to be my mentor many years ago along with the fact that I can never trust her words again.
"I hope that you don't love me anymore." I said and she turned to look at me.
"Why shouldn't I?" she asked, to which I sighed.
"Because I am me and you are you. You have so much life than to stuck with all this." I replied after thinking about the answer.
"I have been loving you for past eight years. It never caused harm to anyone then why should I stop?" she asked frowning.
"Because I don't think you love me at all." I replied, shrugging to which she turned completely towards me.
"What do you think about the feelings I have for you then?" she asked and I took a deep breath.
"Yours is infatuation." I replied, to which she rolled her eyes.
"Yeah! The great infatuation which made me hate my Dad too much for hurting you. And the same feeling which caused me to do anything in my hands so that I can become strong enough and bring you back. Also the same one which pushed me into this mission even though I know you will not accept my love once you know the truth. But for me those few days with you were enough for my lifetime, Andrew." She said and I blinked at her repeating the words.
"I am wrong! This is not infatuation." I said to which she smiled while all I wanted to do was pull her into my arms and kiss her already missing her.
"Yours is obsession." I stated coming out of my dangerous thoughts.
"What?" she asked in a whisper.
"Yes! Yours is not at all love as per your words." I replied staring at her face while she sat calmly with a blank expression.
"You are right!" she whispered and immediately moved taking something from her behind and knelt.
My eyes widened looking at the revolver and she turned back pointing it outside. I immediately clawed near her and knelt beside her to look at where she is seeing.
And then suddenly she fired, while I saw a man falling down in slow motion. Then she whirled around before sitting on the ground along with pulling me to sit down.
"Who was that?" I asked after a few minutes.
"He was the one who shot you. I wanted to kill him by myself." She replied, getting up and moved near the end before climbing up while I sat still.
"Like you said it is my obsession over you and don't worry about it. I will overcome that in no time." She added, turning to face me and I slowly got up before climbing up from the ground.
Then I looked back to see the space in the ground which is very impossible to know such hole is there when one don't know about it.
"Wait!" I said following her.
"You need to explain other things which you said during the mission which I feel lies. However, as you are saying they are truths I need to know." I said when she turned to stare at me.
"Fine! But I can't say everything in a single day. I will say each thing some other time of the day or whenever we both are free." She said nodding still with her blank face.
"I have to come here everyday?" I asked her frowning.
"No! I will be staying at the base only right." She replied to which I frowned more.
"Did you really thought I will leave my life from there just because you said not to show my face anymore?" she asked before letting out a humorless chuckle.
"I was coming back after finishing this work and many things." She explained and turned to walk the way Sam and I came.
"So, you will really explain everything to me?" I asked again when we reached her hidden vehicle.
"Yes! It is fun to explain one's obsessions to the other. And like I said I will come over such obsession feeling. Thanks to you otherwise I would still have been stupid my whole life thinking I really love you." She replied laughing while I concentrated on driving.
It will be a good thing if she comes out of such obsession! I thought and immediately added it is really good.
Like I said, it is a good thing! I continued to think the same line again and again not uttering a word which was not a problem as she was also silent.
