Chapter 27 - 27. Control.... (1/2)

Everything was going on the right track, until that day...

That day he had decided on a whim, as usual, to stay in her condo and went there uninvited.

Like usual, he used his duplicate card to enter.

He didn't know why but this experience of entering her condo with his own card, felt noble and really good, he went inside grinning at the thought.

When he saw her sitting crossed-leg on her single couch, with a warm air around her, he felt like this is how it should always be.

He thought that her waiting for his return was natural and was meant to be like this, feeling happy and giddy, he decided to give her a shock and then a huge hug.

He wanted to give her a surprise and slowly went to her without making any noises....but it was really not his day.

She should only be his, her everything should only be his, her soul, her smile, her body, everything...but that day his little bubble burst open when he heard her giggle, it was very trivial but not to him.

He was really startled, it was not in her character to giggle like that and that too without a reason so, out of curiosity he went closer.

Like they say 'Curiosity kills the Cat”.

He went closer only to see her typing away happily on WeChat, to a handle name called 'Prince Sky' and he finally realised his mistake...

In those years he was not with her, he had thought that just like him, she would live her life in isolation but he had forgotten that even if, she wasn't the one to initiate something, others would not leave her alone.

He had forgotten about her charm or maybe he was too used to it; she gave him her everything, her love, her childhood, her one-track attention, and care. He never took it for granted but got used to it because just like he thought her everything was his, he too gave his everything to her...but because he was charmed by her, everything about her came as natural to him resulting in this kind of miss...

Though his Linlin acted aloof, she was very kind and generous to the people she took under her wing, she was the type of person who attracted attention both in a good way and in a bad way, as such, there were too many bugs around her in this world.

He realised that he didn't like it, smiling is very natural for everyone but he didn't like it when she smiled for a reason which was not him.

He realised again, the depth of his feelings for her and the nature of his love for her.

It was not pink and fluffy, it was dark and binding in a way, it was CONTROL over her everything and he couldn't change it.

............

So yesterday, when he finally heard her speaking to him, that too in a manner he thought was reserved for him, he knew, he had lost it.

He came back to his room and frantically searched about her life in those years, any news about her, he searched and searched but every time he got into a dead end.

Everything about those years was clean, it was too clean actually.

It said that she only went through her studies and work, was not close to anyone, no friends, no acquaintances, no outings, nothing.

The information was too clean, too clean that it made it more suspicious.

It seems she had wiped it all clean and knowing her, she wouldn't have left any loose ends.

He was both proud and frustrated that she was too much of a genius and was efficient.

He still searched for some more and before he knew it, it was morning.
