Chapter 73

We finally arrived at the police department and I quickly unbuckled myself sprinting towards the doors.

There's two people waiting in line, so I stand behind them trying to be patient.

Ray stands besides me trying to keep me company.

Ray was being a good friend so far. He listened intently as I explained everything about Julius.

I could tell Ray wasn't so pleased to hear what Eli was involved in.

However Eli is a changed man and he changed for me and that's enough for me to stay with him despite of what anyone says.

"Next", a bald officer speaks through a speaker.

I peer towards him and make my way towards his little window.

"I-Is Elias Gold held here?", I stutter feeling intimidated by this man's angry looking face.

The officer starts to press on the keyboard his eyes focused on the computer screen.

"Yes he is", he responds.

"May I see him?", I mumble crossing my fingers in hope he'll say yes.

"No", he bluntly says.

"What why?"

"He's currently under investigation so no one can see him besides his lawyer"

"How long do you think it'll take?"

"I'm not sure", he responds.

"Okay", I sigh.

As Ray and I make our way over to some empty seats in the corner. A door opens wide from where the officer I was just talking to is sitting.

My heart thumps fast as I see my lawyer Victor Naboa step out with Grandpa Eric and Mr. Gold.

I quickly run towards them.
"How's Eli?"

All three of their faces are stunned to see me especially Mr. Naboa.

"Gia what are you doing here?! You are in house arrest!", he scolds.

For a moment there I forgot I was on house arrest. However today is a weekday meaning it's a school day which Jaslina thinks I'm currently in school as we speak, so it's safe to say I'm good for now.

"Don't worry Jaslina knows my school schedule , so she thinks I'm in school right now. Now answer me!", I demand losing patience as every minute that passes by feels painful not knowing what's going on with Eli.

"Things aren't looking so good Gia. He murdered 5 people and let's just say Elias isn't a stranger to the cops", Grandpa Eric sighs.

"How long is h-he facing?", I stutter.

"25 years to life", Mr. Gold responds sadness in his emerald green eyes.

My stomach completely becomes into a knot at the horrifying news. If I was shaking before I was definitely shaking twice as hard now.

"Gia are you okay? Your shaking!", Mr. Gold places his hand on my shoulder with a worried look on his face.

"Y-yes I need to see him please help me!", I beg tears slipping down my cheeks.

"No problem I'll take you", Mr. Naboa chirps in after being silent the whole time.

He lets the guards outside the door know who I am and we both step inside.

Everything is so dark and cold in the hallways we are currently walking in.

The dim lights flicker every once in awhile. Mr. Naboa comes to halt as we reach a steel door in the end of the hallway.

"He's in there.. I'll give you 20 minutes", Mr. Naboa bluntly says.

I nod in agreement as I place my small hand on the steel cold door knob slowing turning the knob as I carefully open the door.

As I barge inside the white bright room. My eyes land on Eli who is facing forward his back turned to me.

He's wearing an all orange outfit and on the back of his orange shirt it says
"property of San Jose Facility".

I warily watch him as I step towards him my eyes a glossy sheen from seeing him like this.

"Babe?", I softly mumble.

Eli quickly snaps his head up looking at me from the side.

My smile falters when I notice Eli isn't pleased to see me one bit.

I sit on the chair besides him and I stretch my arm placing my hand on top of his.

As soon as I do this Eli moves his hand away from me.

I furrow my brows in confusion at his weird and rude behavior towards me.

"Are you okay?", I croak out.

Eli just plainly beams at me then rolls his eyes in annoyance.

I'm starting to get aggravated by his weird attitude towards me.

I couldn't hold in my emotions anymore especially when Eli is acting so mean for no reason. We barely made up and were in good terms before he went on his mission, so I don't understand why he's acting this way.

"Why did you do it Eli?!", I growl with tears falling down my cheeks.

Eli just stared at me with no emotion and then looked down to the ground.

"Fucking answer me!", I hissed standing up my hands flying everywhere.

"It's in my nature I'm a bad boy", Eli growls abruptly standing up gritting his teeth.

"How can you not think of me?! Your going to leave me alone ", I cried my eyes out.

The thought of Eli facing years or even life in prison terrifies me and just thinking about this situation makes me sick to my stomach.

I shook my head snapping these thoughts away stepping closer to him as I flung my arms towards him for a hug.

Eli quickly steps back. I stood there shocked by his reaction.

"It's over Gia!", Eli scolds with no emotion on his face.

"W-what?!", I scoffed.

My heart dropped to my stomach suddenly feeling nauseous.

"I said its fucking over what part don't you understand?!", Eli shouts anger in his eyes.

"Why? I don't understand!", my voice cracked as my whole body trembled.

"I don't love you anymore!", He snaps.

His words cut through me like a thousand knives repeatedly stabbing my heart.

"You said you'll always love me forever? How can you just lose love for me so easily?!", I yell tears bursting out of my eyes.

"I lied, I don't fucking love you anymore now get the fuck out of my life!", He shouts his hands flying all over the place.

"We were just fine a couple of hours ago! What happened in that time period Eli?! This makes no fucking sense?!", I sniffle.

I was in complete denial it didn't make any sense.

"Are you stupid or something? I just told you that I don't love anymore in matter of fact I stopped loving you when you cheated on me. I just played along to get you in bed one last time then dump you for my revenge! I've moved on!", Eli hissed his emerald green eyes full of anger.

His harsh confession hammered my heart and soul apart. I just couldn't comprehend what was going on right now.

He must be lying.

Maybe he just doesn't want me to suffer due to him being locked up right now.

"Eli if your doing this because your locked up its okay I will wait for you like you did for me. I love you with all of my heart, I'm willing to do this for you. Me and you forever remember? Please don't do this to me I love you!", I practically beg tears still streaming down my cheeks.

Eli's face was plain not showing any emotion whatsoever.

Suddenly he turns his back to me, "stop being in denial it's pathetic. I don't love you anymore my bad for leading you on. Nothing is forever Gia your so naive!".

I couldn't believe my ears!

I couldn't believe any of this right now! My world is literally crumbling down to the fucking ground right now.

And that's when reality slapped me on the face. Eli wasn't lying he actually means every word he is saying to me.

My legs suddenly gives out on me causing me to drop to the ground from how bad I was shaking. I was now on my knees hugging myself sobbing so loud.

"I thought you never break your promises?!", I mutter.

Eli didn't say a word his back still facing me.

"FUCKING ANSWER ME!", I hissed.

"You thought wrong!", Eli scolds.

My heart stopped beating. Everything froze around me. I was baffled by Eli's harsh words.

My jaw dropped, but I quickly closed my mouth.

My lips kept shaking fiercely as the rest of my body shook from pain and anger.

Suddenly something ticked within me. It was almost as if I just opened my eyes realizing how stupid I was for believing someone would actually love me forever.

Anger flared up in me from how pathetic I've been all along.

"FUCK YOU I FUCKING HATE YOU! I GAVE YOU ALL OF ME, MY VIRGINITY, I BELIEVED YOUR PROMISES, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY I TRUSTED YOU! I-I HOPE YOU ROT IN JAIL!", I growl clenching my fists as I stood up from the floor turning my heel storming out of the visitation room.

The door slams shut and I look down the hallway then turn back to stare at the door behind me.

The thought of Eli not being mine anymore killed me. All of his promises, our plans, and us growing old together went down the toilet.

I lifted my hand up placing it on the steel cold door.

I squeezed my eyes shut causing one last tear to slide down my cheek.

"Goodbye my love"
