Aku yang Kau Buang, Kini Tak Bisa Kau Sentuh

Malia's P.O.V

"You are the one I have been waiting for my whole life and having you by my side is what completes me, I can't imagine my life without you in it. Will you do the honour of becoming my wife?"

"What! how dare you?" I screamed with frustration and anger consuming me, I felt blood drain from my face and I hadn't noticed the goosebumps creeping on my arms. I was stunned and frozen at that moment as I felt my pulse beating in my ears, blocking out other sounds and a feeling of dread crept up from the pit of my stomach.

Time seemed to be slowing down as I wasn't able to comprehend what I saw and heared as I stared at them with wide opened eyes. I moved hastily towards them and whacked off the ring from his hand.

"Malia behave! I can explain" Maynard said as he grabbed my shoulders but I harshly shoved him aside.

"Don't you dare touch me you scumbag! what exactly can you explain? don't you feel ashamed of yourself and do you really want to give me reasons on why you're having an extra marital affair with your personal assistant, shame on you! you disgust me" I fired back at him with anger lacing through my body

"Over to you, Did you think you can become my husband's mistress? will a man that lives off my money be able to give you the luxurious life you crave, you homewrecker" I grabbed her long hair in my fist and yanked it behind then she yelled in pain then I slapped her multiple times across her cheeks not caring if it turned red or not, the anger which consumed me was like a burning fire which didn't have any intentions of quenching.

"What are you doing? You're hurting her, just let her go and face me" he said and pulled Charmaine away from me.

"Did I hear you clearly or not? I would have faced you if you were man enough. It shows that you clearly care about your mistress feelings more than mine" my throat tightened and my hands shook so hard that I could barely control them, never had I despised anyone as much as I do right now and no amount of tears and consoling could explian the pain I felt.

Hot tears streamed down my face and I squeezed my eyelids shut in the hopes my tears would stop. My choppy breathing and watery eyes remained for quite some time and I stood there unmoving, does he know how much he has hurt me?.

"Get out! before I loose my cool, there isn't any place for homewreckers like you in this office. Just pack your belongings and leave" I said in a sonorous voice and with that she left breaking into tiny sobs then I turned all my attention to Maynard.

"How many times did you touch her body?" I asked as my words broke in and out and all I could say were stuttering words. Fear crept into my heart although deep down I knew his response but for some unknown reason I wanted to hear no for an answer, probably I loved him immensely to let him go.

"I'm sorry, it's you I love and only you. You're the woman who resides in my heart, whatever you saw here was a joke it was nothing but a fling I just wanted to pass time" he voiced out and I was taken aback by his act of unremorsefulness.

"I walked in on you proposing to another woman and you have the guts to say it was just a fling, unbelievable!" 

I shouted accusingly at him as I grabbed his collar in my fists. I took two small steps backwards and I heared a high pitched scream travel up and out of my chest and I didn't realise it was mine untill much later then I curled my fingers unknowingly to ease the painful rigidness.

"I guess I'm just the unlucky one, how pathetic" I muttered. Pain washed over me and I laughed hard, one that was mixed with misery and bad timing.

"This is the most important decision I have ever made and I want you to know you brought this upon us, I want a divorce!" I said obstinately with all traces of determination in my eyes but his next action caught me off guard.

"There's nothing you're gonna tell me that will make me believe women aren't emotional fools, just take a look at yourself you want to end our two years relationship because you claim I cheated on you can you prove it? c'mon tell me I need to know. Let's be realistic for once, forget about me and think about yourself, are you ready for the accusations and vile languages the whole world will use on you. Don't forget you're the daughter of the biggest chocolate manufacturer but then you'll be tagged as a woman that couldn't keep her husband happy in their marriage" he said in a demeaning way as he smirked

"It's so unfortunate your mind is so cheap and dirty, untill today you've only seen my love but from this moment you'll witness my hatred. Mark my words! I'll make sure I bring your face down to the ground, no woman deserves a cunning, selfish and excuse of a man like you. It has become known to me you married me for my wealth, power and fame so I'll advise you to get ready for my next attack"

His amber eyes widened and darkened in disbelief and his face turned a ghastly shade of white. I threw open the door and stormed out and the force of the door slamming hard could be heared through the walls of the office and I could see the audience watching the drama that had unfolded judging from Charmaine loud cries. 

There was nothing left of my happiness, everything I worked so hard to sustain was gone in a twinkle of an eye. His love for me was just a facade and I realised it in a hard way, he didn't think twice before dragging my name in the mud and for that single act there wasn't any way I was going to forgive him.

It was now evening and with tears in my eyes I made my way to my secret spot which is the beach. As I kept walking along the beach I could feel the light breeze coming against my body. The fresh air felt as though I was sleeping in a comfortable bed, Maynard's words shattered my heart completely and the beach felt like an escape to all of my problems. Strolling along I felt the soft smooth sand under my feet as it went through my cold skin which gave me a tingling feeling of excitement.

As the waves dashed the noises soothed me then I stopped at the edge of the beach where I put my toes in the water letting the coldness go into mu skin. I got this light shiver in my body where I felt like it touched my soul. The waves dashed with full force and I could see the surface, I tried to get away because I can't swim but it dragged me back with the reflected light going farther and farther away. The darkness I saw made me panic as I was dragged down even more, I struggled to get out of it's grip as I lost more air.

My chest was hurting badly and I could feel my heartbeat pulsating louder and louder, I desperately needed air then I tried to kick my legs to the surface but it seemed as though luck wasn't on my side. Everything started to hurt and my chest felt like it had been stabbed, then with my last strength I kicked once more but my body didn't hurt then instantly I became aware I wasn't going to make it, I was calm and quiet and I didn't try to scream for help but then I felt my body being dragged out of the water as a hand clamped my waist.

"Why enter the water when you can't swim" the voice whispered beside my ear. I slowly opened my eyes and realised a pair of arms was wrapped round my waist, I raised my gaze to look at the person and my eyes widened in astonishment.

"You!?" I exclaimed surprisingly

"We meet again miss Smith, aren't you excited to see me?" the man said in a husky voice that sent chills down my spine.
