  "Don't go, Enrique. Be with me. I am a better choice than her. She's just a cheating b*tch and she doesn't deserve you at all" -Brianna

ENRIQUE's POV

When I opened the door, I stopped for a couple of seconds. I could hear my wife's sobs but I prevented myself from looking back and see her crying face. I closed the door and walked briskly without looking back then got into my car. 

I knew I'm being an a*shole but I really needed to think and be alone for now. Since I've discovered the truth about what happened, the anger inside me started eating my rationale thinking out and I didn't want to hurt Blake any further than this.

Being with Blake again made me complete. I felt happy and contented. I thought I could finally move on from the past but I was wrong. My dreams about what happened to Jasmin came back again and this time, it was worst.

I even forgot about the accident but when I found out that what happened to us that day wasn't accident, I lost it. Everytime I close my eyes, I could see what my sister looked like before I lost consciousness. I could see the blood, the fire and the smell of gasoline all over. I could still recall the feeling of the fire slowly eating my flesh while shouting for my sister's name and the suffering I've been through after that. It all came back to me.

It really hurts knowing that I couldn't even do anything to save her but the most painful thing about it was the guy who killed her was the lover of our mother. She deceived us. I couldn't believe that in just a snap of a finger, all the things that I've been believing to were all just a lie. The respect I had for my mother faded because of what she did.

I wanted to scream, to kill that bastard but even that, I wouldn't have the pleasure to do so. He's already dead. He escaped from his sins just like that without even suffering.

I kept on driving without a destination in mind. I felt so confused and I felt numb already because of these mixed emotions I'm feeling right now. Tears escaped from my eyes and my vison became blurry. I decided to stop my car at the shoulder of the road and cry myself out. Honestly, I felt so weak.

After a couple of minutes of crying, I started the engine again and decided to go at the bar for a drink. I wanted to forget about everything even for just tonight.

When I arrived at the bar, I went to the bar counter and ordered for a drink. When the bar tender gave me my drink, I sat on the stool and faced the dance floor. I could see the people dancing, shouting, flirting and making out everywhere. I used to go here with my friends before I met Blake again and I could say that I enjoyed and had fun then.

When I felt stressed out because of work, I would go with my buddies and kill sometime here and forget about work and problems but now, there was no effect on me. I used to enjoy the loud noise of this pace if I had a problem but now, it wasn't easing the pain I was feeling. I ordered again and again but it wasn't helping me one bit. I guess the saying that alcohol would never solve your problems was right. I chuckled humorlessly and drunk my drink in one gulp.

I was about to order again when someone put their hand on my shoulder.

"Hi baby. You look like you can use a company right now" A familiar sultry voice said. I looked up and saw her. I haven't seen her since the last time Blake and I went to visit my parents in Colorado. What the heck is she doing here?

"What do you want, Brianna?" I asked coldly. She smiled seductively and sat on the stool next to me. I instantly felt irritated. The last thing I wanted is to deal with the likes of her.

"Nothing. I just happened to see you drinking here alone. You looked kinda problematic and pathetic so I decided to come and join you. I think you badly needed a company" She said and started caressing my arm, trying to seduce me. She's even biting her lip.

I scowled at her. She's trying to be seductive and all but she looked like someone who just swallowed something bitter and then sucked a lemon to ease that bitterness. I swatted her hand away with irritation and stood up.

"Where are you going, Enrique?" She asked and stood up too. I gritted my teeth but then heaved a sigh to calm myself down. I wanted to relax and forget about what happened to me these past few days but this woman is starting to give me headache.

"Out of here" I answered and was about to go when she spoke and what she told me made me stopped on my tracks.

"I know that you and Blake has a problem right now. I know everything that happened, you know. Even though you haven't seen me these past few months, that doesn't mean that I don't know what's happening to you. Isn't it cruel? The father of the one you love was the one who killed your sister" My jaw flexed in anger. I turned around and faced her.

I could tell that she was surprise of the rage that's written over my face right now because her eyes widened with fear.

"Tell that to me again and I'll make sure that you'll suffer" I said as my jaw flexed tightly.

"E-Enrique, I'm sorry okay? I didn't mean to piss you off. Anyway, I-I just want to tell you something about your beloved woman" She said with a trembling voice. I wanted to just go and ignore her but what she just said caught my attention.

"Spill it now" She gulped nervously first before she took her phone out from her bag.

"I didn't want to tell you about this but I'm just concern about you. A while ago, I just happened to pass by near your place and I saw this. I just thought that you needed to see this" She said and handed me her phone. I took her phone and looked at it. My eyes widened the moment I saw the picture.

It was Blake and Jake at the park. Jake was hugging Blake. I could literally feel my blood boil and it went up my head. I was about to throw the phone out of anger when I noticed something that made my heart sunk. Then I didn't even notice that the phone slipped out of my hand and it fell to the floor.

I heard Brianna's scream and picked up her phone while cursing at me but I didn't give a damn anymore. I turned around and quickly went out of the bar. I directly went to my car and open it. I was about to get in when someone hugged me from behind.

"Don't go, Enrique. Be with me. I am a better choice than her. She's just a cheating b*tch and she doesn't deserve you at all" Brianna said. I instantly unwrapped her arms around me and faced her.

"Don't you dare call Blake like that! She's way better than you and you can't even compare to her!" I spat at her furiously. I could imagine the smoke coming out of my head because of anger. Instead of backing out, her innocent façade changed and smirked b*tchily.

"Really, Enrique? You still love her even though she's cheating on you? You already saw the evidence! She's happily hugging that guy while you're here, drowning yourself out with alcohol"

"Don't fool me! I know Blake would never cheat on me so leave me alone!" I hissed and got inside my car and quickly closed the door and drove away from there.

"I'm coming, Angel eyes. Wait for me" I said to myself like a fool. Seeing that picture made me realize how much I hurt her. I felt so pathetic and sh*t because I left her. I was a selfish bastard, only thinking about my feelings and anger.

I didn't realize that I was already hurting her. She even told me that she was hurting because of my behavior but It didn't sink in my head because I was busy lamenting over the past, crying about what happened. I forgot that the one who was with me now was her. She's my wife and she must be my priority. I forgot about all that and became an insensitive bastard.

I felt my heart tighten as I recalled her crying face before I turned my back on her. I realized that I made the biggest mistake of my life treating her that way. She didn't do anything other than loving me but I treated her like that.

She even went to the doctor because something went wrong with our baby in her stomach but I even ignored that fact. I didn't even notice that she wasn't feeling well these past few days. I became an irresponsible husband. I just behaved like a fool who's hurting and got the f*ck out of there like a sissy.

If something happened to her because of me, I would never forgive myself. I punched the steering wheel a couple of times to ease the anger I was feeling to myself. I drove past the speed limit and I didn't care if I was violating the traffic rules. I just wanted to arrive home as soon as possible.

I parked the car near the park where the picture was taken but I didn't see Blake there. I looked around the entire park but she was nowhere to be found. I opened my phone and was about to dial Blake's number when I saw her missed calls and message. Tears quickly came out of my eyes as I read her message.

I dialed her number but she wasn't answering. I called our telephone at home to check if she was already there but nobody was picking it up. I felt so nervous when I couldn't contact her. Fear started to crawl throughout my body.

I decided to go out of the park and looked around the nearby area, shouting her name. I was beginning to panic but I tried to stop it. She's okay, Enrique. Don't panic!

I looked like a lost child searching for her but to no avail. Then I decided to go home, trying to convince myself that she was sleeping and she's there.

I drove my car towards the house when I saw a black van in front of the gate and drove away. My heart was thumping hard as I looked at the van. There was something off but I ignored it and pressed the remote to open the gate. Upon parking my car, I instantly went inside and looked for my wife. But my world almost exploded when I confirmed that she wasn't home.

I went to her closet and checked if her clothes were still there but it looked untouched. She definitely didn't bring clothes with her. There was no sign that she left me for good. Then I suddenly remembered the picture. She was with that bastard! What if she's with him? What if she decided to leave me and went with him?

No! Blake definitely loves me and she would never leave me for another man!

I decided to go out again and look for Blake. I just finished closing the gate when I saw our neighbor approaching me.

"Good evening Mr. Dixon. I just want to ask if your wife happen to be at your place" My eyebrows knitted together.

"Why do you ask?"

"Because I'm not sure if I'm mistaken or what but I think I saw your wife with a man a while ago. But something was odd. She looked lifeless while the man carried her inside a black van. Before that, I saw them at the restaurant eating together and they looked like they knew each other. I just want to ask if she's okay. She's pregnant right?" My eyes widened.

"What the hell! Why didn't you call the police?! She's missing right now and I've been looking for her since I arrived home!" I shouted at him and which made him stunned.

"T-They looked friends that's why I just thought that maybe something happened to her and the guy would bring her to the hospital. I'm sorry" The man said guiltily and looked down.

I wanted to punch the guy but it wasn't his fault. It's all my fault and I wanted to kick myself but chose to just move and do something to help my wife.I knew that whoever that guy, our neighbor was referring to, kidnapped Blake. I tried to recall the plate number of the black van but I couldn't remember it.

I huffed and left our neighbor after thanking him.I needed to go somewhere. I will never let something bad happen to you, Angel eyes. I will do anything to rescue you and this time, I promise you that I'll make things right. Hold on tight, baby.
