Endless Love A short Story

"Why are you here after so many years??" he asked. I could sense anger.

"I'm here.. And I'll stay here.. Its not your hotel mister" I retorted

He came near me and grabbed my waist. I tried moving back but his strong arms were not allowing me to.

"Please- please leave me," I said helplessly.

"Huh, so now you're scared?" he asked shamelessly.

"Please let me go!"

"Go..but you'll regret what you did Ms. Marie Smith"

"What-whatever.."

He left me and I ran away.

I ran away. He followed me. I couldn't reach the hotel room's door, and he locked the door.

"What's your problem, Mr. Adrien? Did I even say anything???"

"You'll regret what you did three years ago," he said.

He came to me. I started going back. He moved forward. I went back and now I was between the wall and him.

"Now where will you go?"

"You! Leave me!"

"And what If I don't!"

"....." I didn't have an answer. He's so strong. I'm nothing.

"Will you go to your boyfriend?"

"What boyfriend?"

"Don't act like that"

"I don't have anyone, Adrien. Please leave me"

"You know I love you"

"But I don't, Adrien. If you love me then why are you forcing your love on me!"

"I never forced you nor will I ever.."

"Just look at what you're doing right now"

He got away immediately as if he never wanted to force me.

"I'm sorry but I can't take it, Marie," he said in a low tone.

"What can you not take?"

"Loving you and being hated. Loving you and being betrayed" he said and started crying. For the first time, I saw him weak.

"I didn't betray you, Adrien, you did"

"I don't think this is the right time to talk" he said and went away.

I don't know what he's thinking. He betrayed me all these years and now he came and told me he loves me? Even he said that I betrayed him? Is he serious? I should be the one crying. I have no one in this world.

Why did he come so suddenly after complete three years? Did he know... How have I cut these years? Without him, without anyone? And now... He's here forcing his love on me. After what he did... I don't love him anymore. I hate him. I can't love anyone. My belief in love has totally vanished. And it'll never return. Never.
