561 You Are Protecting Elijah
[I thought you were a busy man, when did you have the time to create that?]
Arianna referred to the gif.
She found his gazebo and decided to spend time there. Moreover, her chat with Marcel was becoming interesting and she didn’t want to miss out on it. So she settled down on the seat, her eyes glued to the screen of her phone, and Marcel’s answer came out quickly as usual.
[I’ll never be too busy for you]
[What a sweet talker. How many ladies have you won over with those words]
It was ridiculous.
Arianna didn’t even know why she typed those words, but she just wanted to know. Was she that special or had there been a more special woman in his life before her arrival? Marcel might have told her that she was his first love, but she was a kid then and didn’t fully comprehend the concept, of “love”. In one word, she just wanted to know. Arianna wanted to know her place in his heart was unshakeable.
[None]
Marcel answered curtly and Arianna was a bit disappointed. He could have said more words, you know. However, to her surprise, Marcel dropped another message and her prayer was answered.
.....
[You’re the first woman I’m in a romantic relationship with. All of the women in my life were there for one purpose and that was to satisfy my sexual urges and needs. However, the moment I laid my eyes on you in that coffee shop, my soul resonated deep inside of me and I just knew it, you are worth much more than the others. You are not just here to scratch my itch Arianna, you are here to last a lifetime.]
Words failed Arianna the moment she read those words. If she ever had any doubts concerning Marcel’s feelings for her, it was cleared at that moment. And she couldn’t keep lying to him either, Arianna had to tell him about Elijah.
[I need to ask you something] She typed, [Promise not to be angry]
[I promise my love, anything for you]
Arianna took a deep breath, it was now or never. So she began to type down,
[If Elijah were to return your weapons, would you let him go?]
Arianna’s heart began to pound in her throat the moment she sent those words and when the blue dots showed Marcel received them, her anxiety increased.
She saw the floating dots showing that Marcel was typing, but then he suddenly went offline and her stomach dropped. Marcel was angry, she was sure of that.
Her palms became clammy and Arianna was still wondering what she was going to do when Marcel came online again and her hope grew, perhaps he wasn’t as mad as she thought.
Ding!
He sent a message to her
[Where are you?]
Arianna swallowed down the lump in her throat. Marcel wanted to see her. It did not sound good, nonetheless, she answered,
[In the gazebo]
And he went offline.
At once, Arianna fortified herself mentally knowing an interrogation was forthcoming. This was the reason she couldn’t tell Marcel about Elijah, he was irrational. She let Marcel decide Macy, why couldn’t he listen to her when it comes to Elijah?
Macy was a great help to Marcel and in like manner, Elijah was the same to her too. He saved her from Big Joe and was her boyfriend. She couldn’t just let Marcel end his life because of their feud when they could settle this civilly. No, she would never look at Marcel the same way if he killed Elijah out of his petty jealousy.
Perhaps, Elijah was right, she would never be free no matter how Marcel sugar-coated it.
Marcel arrived and his jaw was set and held her with a stern look. Here, they go.
“Marcel....”
However, Marcel boxed her in, his hands on either side of her as he demanded, “Tell me, what do you know about Elijah?”
“What?” Arianna acted clueless, “What are you talking about?”
“Don’t take me for a fool, Arianna,” He hissed through gritted teeth, “I’ve been with you long enough to know you’re only curious when you’ve caught up to something. What is it you know about Elijah?”
“No, I know nothing,”
“Arianna!” He screamed at her face, close to losing control.
“It’s nothing!” Arianna shouted back, “I was only thinking that I could find him and if that were to happen, would you be willing to let him go if I convince him to release your guns,” She gave him her initial plans until Elijah himself decided to reveal himself to her.
“You are not going to go near him! ” Marcel growled an order – one that she wasn’t willing to obey.
“That is unreasonable! What if there was a way to resolve all of this without bloodshed?!”
“That is not possible. I have justice to deliver, Elijah killed enough of my men, he would pay that in blood and....” Marcel suddenly trailed off as if he realized something.
Arianna let out an involuntary gasp when he suddenly hooked his fist around her hair, thinking Marcel was about to hurt her – and her worst nightmare came through. The thought that Marcel was just like his father scared her.
However, Marcel only lifted her face so he was able to look her in the eyes. He muttered, “You are protecting him,”
And it was the truth. Arianna didn’t bother to hide it because he saw it in her eyes.
“Do you still love him?” He asked, to her shock.
“What? Of course, not!”
She tried to say to him but Marcel pulled away from her.
However Arianna was persistent and managed to cup his cheek and said,
“I love you with every fiber of my being, Marcel,” She hoped he saw it.
“But not enough to let go of Elijah,” Marcel said coldly, releasing her grip on him and turned to leave
“No, Marcel, listen -”
“I need some time alone,” Marcel stopped her from coming after him and left her alone.
Arianna thought her heart was breaking into a million pieces and she released a frustrated roar. This was not supposed to go like this. How could they go from a happy couple to this? She doesn’t even know what happens next.
