Chapter 478: Regrets

"Just calm down, Darrien wouldn’t do anything to hurt himself. He will be fine,’’ Elu breathes out gently. Her voice is calm and it would have been soothing if I wasn’t already panicking right now. He stormed out of the house angrily and it has been hours.

He took my phone so I can’t call him. I can’t make sure he is okay.

Where are you Dar.

I send him a mind link but I don’t get a response. My hands are on my l. I am seated on the couch in the living room. I have been here since he brought me earlier. He left angrily, saying he remembered everything. It is just so confusing to me. My memory seems intact, so how does he remember something that I don’t.

I trust him completely. Even if I never remember, I will believe only him and I just want this to be over with. If I have to stay away from Lenny, then that is what I will do. I will do whatever I need to do to make this relationship stronger.

Right now, Lenny is messing things up and I don’t want that. I don’t want anyone to come and mess with the happiness that I have built for myself. Darrien left here and I am panicking. What if he is hurt?

What if Lenny did something to him?

"Why isn’t he back, it has been hours?’’ I ask Elu even though we have been here together since he left. She has been sitting with me, I know she doesn’t want to leave me and I understand that she is doing this because of Darrien. He is her brother after all.

"He will come back here, just relax.’’

I shake my head because I am worried and I can’t relax when I don’t know what is happening to him. I can still feel him, like deep in my heart, so I know he is still alive, but I don’t know if he is hurt. Not that I am saying I want him to be hurt but I just want to know where he is.

"Can you call him, just make sure he is alright? He took my phone, so I can’t call him,’’ I stomp my leg on the floor anxiously. I can’t sit still, my hands are shaking, my heart is beating so fast that it feels like it is about to explode. I guess not knowing is what is affecting me. I need to know that he is at least safe.

If Lenny did all Darrien said he did, then he is dangerous. I don’t want him alone with him. I want Darrien safe and with me.

"I tried already; he is not answering." Elu rubs my back and I sigh. I don’t know how to handle this. How to stay strong when I don’t know what happened to him.

"Can you drive me home?’’ I turn to her slowly because I would rather be at the apartment than here. If anything happened to him, he would come to the apartment first. I just have that feeling inside me.

"What...why?’’ she asks me, probably confused about why I would want to go home right now.

I don’t like being here.

I don’t like to think about everything that could possibly happen to him. I was there and I am nothing but confused. It is the only thing that is clear to me.

I know now that something happened with Lenny. There is no way that Darrien would have that kind of reaction if nothing happened. I trust him and him alone and now I need to go to him because I feel like he needs me right now.

"I want to go home; can you drive me?’’ I repeat myself, hoping that she will listen to me and actually take me home. I don’t have any reason to be here.

"He wants you to stay here, do you think it is a good idea to go back to the apartment?" she asks me but I just nod because I don’t know what else to say "I think we should just wait for him. He would be upset if he finds out that I let you go home alone."

I shake my head because she can’t tell me what Darrien wants. There is no one I know better than him and the only place I should be is in our home.

"Please take me home,’’ I stand up from the couch and she looks at me with concern "If you don’t take me home, I will go on my own.’’

I hear his footsteps before he comes into the living room "I’ll drive you,’’ Eligio says as he comes into the room. His expression is blank and I can’t really read him. I walk over to him and he leads me out of the house. Once we are in front of his car, he speaks up "You know Darrien can handle himself, he has always been the only one that didn’t need anyone."

I hear him but now he has me. So, I don’t want him to always feel like he can take on everything.

I want him to lean on me sometimes.

"He will be fine; I know you are worried but I don’t think you should be."

I nod because the faster this conversation ends, the faster I can get back to the apartment.

He opens the car door and I enter quietly. He is staring over at me and I can feel his stare. He looks very concerned; I don’t know why he looks so concerned.

"Darrien is looking out for you and is always going to be the one to protect you. He won’t let anyone do anything to you if he knows it.’’

I look away because he is so right. He never lets me get hurt, but today, I pushed him away. I don’t know what happened, but I pushed him to the point where he felt he had to go looking for Lenny and this is my biggest regret.

The fear that he would do something.

Something he might regret because of me.
