Onika's POV....
Alex is showing me his new toys for like past one hour but all I can think is about my conversation with Jacob. I have got two very shocking information today.
Firstly Agustin is again going to betray me. I don't believe this, the audacity of this man! He never was actually letting me go. He just gave me false hope so that he can coax me into taking him back again.
I feel completely traped. I don't think he even like Alex but he is ready to ask for Alex's custody just because he can't let me go. This is completely insane. Is this person for real.
What had happened to you Agustin. Where is that companionate and loving person you once were, the person I once loved. Who didn't use to scare the hell out of me, didn't use to beat the life out of me.
What have you become.
His words still keeps reverberating in my mind
Onika's pov...I don't know since how long I am curled up in this corner and staring at the ceiling.After his ultimatum, Agustin went out of the mansion in a haste and hadn't returned back yet. The way he looked when he left the room, I am afraid he will do something reckless.Everything is repeating in my head again and again.I feel hot raging anger built within me after his confession..... but there is also a little part of me that can't help but feel pity for him. I can't possibly feel pity for him after what he did.....but I do. Agustin's broken face just keep on flashing infront of my eyes, make me overcome with remorse.Why don't you understand Agustin the Onika you loved is long gone with the Agustin I loved. We can't live with each other without getting hurt. We can't live happily together ever again. What you are imagining in your head for our life to be are just
Onika's POV....."Have you lost your fucking mind?!" I shouted at him incredulously.He just rolled his eyes at me and said."let me first explain how this works, before you jump at any conclusion."Then he looked thoughtfully at me before saying"I always used to think how you and Agustin get alone seeing nothing in common between you two but there there finally I found something, you both are too impatient and impulsive for your own good." He said mockingly.Say what! " I and Agustin have nothing in common and we so not get along, so only I am sitting here with you and reviewing my escape routes. So don't you ever I mean ever compare me with Agustin." I said through gritted teeth and glared at him, hard.His lips were twitching as in controlling himself not to throw into a fit of laughter but nonetheless he raised his hands in surrender."Now can you explain
Onika's pov.I put Alex to bed and wrapped a comforter around him and kissed him gently on the forehead.After that I started pacing around the room in anxiety. Agustin is not back yet. It's already past mid night. I hope everything is fine. Did he do something reckless? Is he okay?Where is he?When will he be back?I just hope he had not hurt himself or anyone for that matter.What was adding to my anxiety was the lethal decision I took today. I don't know how I am going to act on it. It feels so wrong deep down in my heart but at the same time I do realise I can't wait for a lifetime for Agustin to realise his mistake. If he had not realised it yet probably he is never going to realise it.I just hope he doesn't see right through my act because if he does.....then god help me, even thinking about it make me tremble with fear.&n
Onika's pov.... "You going to office, right? Can you drop me as well? Am getting late and my boss is not a big fan of late comers." I asked him in a steady voice, proud of myself that I didn't stutter.Well, I practiced that line for like fifty times.But Instead of answering he just started looking around incredulously. Then pinched himself. Uh-oh, hence proved he has gone mad.Tick, tick, tick....Why isn't he answering?"So it's a yes or no?" I asked impatiently and a bit anxiously."Ye...yes..I..I don't see why not." He said looking dumbstruck.So I immediately sat in the car before he change his mind. But instead of moving in he just stood rooted to his place as if paralyzed."Well you better start driving... I am telling you my boss is too rude and I don't want to be his victim for the day." I
Agustin's pov......Onika. Is. Behaving. STRANGE.Yesterday she was disgusted even at the site of me and today she is packing breakfast for me, are you kidding me? I thought she couldn't care less even if I starve infront of her very eyes. I just can't digest it.I have no idea what the hell is going on.I have never, never been this clueless in my entire fucking, damn, pathetic life. I didn't see this coming.What does this even means? Can it be....can it be because she has decided to give me a chance?Oh-My-God, had she finally decided to give me a chance?!Why else will she warm up to me, suddenly?Even the thought of it makes my heart do summersault with happiness. That is all I need. Just one chance, I will do everything in my power to make this work between us, I will give my hundred percent to it, I vowed
Onika's pov......It's already two days since I started executing my plan. Everything is fine till now, he is always calm, composed and cheerful, we drive to the office together, go home together, have dinner together.The only problem is, he is even trying to get close to Alex and I don't want him any where near him.What scares me the most is, they get alone very well. I never expected Agustin to be able to handle him this well. I am completely shocked at how he managed to do that. Maybe he is just a good actor, I thought. But I can't let him play with Alex's innocent heart, like he played with mine.I don't want Alex to get attached to him in any way. I am afraid he will start looking upto him as his father. It will break Alex's heart when I and Agustin will divorce.I need to do it fast, I can see Agustin has let his guards down around me,
Onika's pov.....All the heads were turned in our direction. Everything went silent. Deadly Silent. I think Agustin could even hear my heart beating furiously, because I was able to hear his ragged breathing, his eyes blood shoot, giving a glimpse of the upcoming storm.Agustin took few slow steps towards me to stop after coming dangerously close to me and said "You were not well to go with me but you are well enough to go out with him and in case you are wondering, No, I wasn't spying on you. I called Maria to tell her to give you medicine, if needed and take care of you that's when I came to know you went out of the mansion just after I did." He seethed, through gritted teeth, doing nothing to hide the anger in his voice.He gripped my wrist in a death grip and said" let's go." With finality in his voice, leaving no space for arguments, making my heart beat accelarate in unadult
Onika's pov.....I was holding tight on Jacob's shirt and crying for last half an hour, for what? I have no idea and he was just patting my back soothingly with one hand and his other hand was wrapped around my head plastering me to his chest. He didn't say anything, but just the way he was holding me spoke it all.I can feel a bubble of peace surrounding my heart after an eternity. I feel alive like I have some existence of my own. It was all bottled up in me for how long I don't even remember it feels so good to finally let everything out.Finally I gathered myself and pulled away from Jacob, his hands a bit reluctant to let go off me.I looked him into the eyes, purposely avoiding the view of his bruised jaw, once again because of me. Though that didn't stop the pang of guilt stabbing at me in the gut."I..I...am..sorry for landing both of us into this
