LOGINBrinda's P.O.V
The taxi slowed to a stop in front of a dimly lit building.I lifted my head slowly and looked through the window.A cheap motel.The sign flickered weakly, half the letters barely working.For a moment… I just stared at it.This was it.“Ma’am,” the driver said gently.I blinked and turned to him.“We’re here.”“Oh…” I swallowed. “Thank you.”He hesitated, his eyes studying me tBrinda's P.O.V I didn’t know how I got back to the motel.My legs moved.My body walked.But my mind?It was somewhere else.Every “no” I heard today echoed in my head like a curse.No.No.No.I pushed the door open and stepped inside slowly, closing it behind me with a soft click.Silence.The kind that felt heavy.I stood there for a few seconds, just staring at nothing.“…This isn’t how I thought today would go,” I whispered.My baby shifted slightly in my arms.I looked down at her.Her tiny face was calm.Peaceful.Like the world wasn’t already trying to break us.“I tried,” I murmured.“I really tried.”I walked to the bed and sat down slowly, placing her gently beside me.“I thought… maybe someone would just give me a chance.”A small laugh escaped my lips.
Brinda’s P.O.VThe knock came again.Sharp.Loud.My heart jumped straight to my throat.I froze where I sat, my baby still in my arms, her tiny body warm against mine.“Who… who is it?” I whispered, my voice barely coming out.No response.Just silence.My grip tightened around her.This wasn’t right.No one was supposed to know I was here.No one.My heart started racing.What if they found me?What if—Another knock.Slower this time.Deliberate.I swallowed hard.“Okay…” I whispered to myself. “Okay…”I couldn’t just sit here forever.I carefully placed my baby on the bed, adjusting the blanket around her.“Mommy will be right back,” I murmured softly, brushing my fingers against her cheek.She stirred slightly but didn’t wake.I stood up slowly, my legs sti
Jason’s POV I didn’t move and I couldn’t.The note was stil in my hand slightly crumpled from how tightly I had been gripping it.My eyes stayed fixed on the words like if I read them enough times… they would change.They didn’t.“Goodbye… forever.”The words echoed in my head like curse.“No…” I whispered under my breath.“This doesn’t make sense.” My chest tightened again.She wouldn’t leave like this.Not Brinda. Not after everything. Not after what we just… built.“She was scared,” I muttered, pacing slowly.“That’s all. She was scared.”But even as I said it, something inside me refused to believe it.Brinda was many things.Broken.Guarded.Stubborn.But she wasn’t a coward.She wouldn’t run without a reason.So what happened?My jaw clenched.“What aren’t you t

Brinda’s POV The plane doors opened and the first breath of unfamiliar air hit my face. Cold.Sharp.Real.For a moment I just stood there, clutching my baby closer to my chest while the other passengers moved past me with their bags and chatter. Everyone seemed to know where they were going.Everyone except me.“Ma’am?” the flight attendant said gently. “We’ve landed.”“I… yes.” I forced my feet to move.One step.The another.Each step down the narrow aisle felt heavier than the last, like the weight of everything I had left behind was pressing against my chest.Jason.The thought of his name alone made my throat tighten painfully.I swallowed hard.Not now.Not here.I stepped out of the plane and into the airport terminal, my baby shifting softly in my arms.Her tiny fingers curled against the blanket wrapped around h
Brinda's P.O.V“Move, Brinda. Move now!”Sofie’s voice dragged me out of my frozen state.My arms tightened around my baby as another wave of fear rushed through me. My heart was beating so loud I could barely hear anything else.“I can hear them,” I whispered.Heavy footsteps echoed down the hallway.Voices.“Split up. She couldn’t have gone far.” the men’s voices echoed.Miss Cash.She didn’t just want to scare me.She wanted to finish me.“Sofie…” my voice cracked. “They’re close.”I know,” Sofie said, pulling me along. “Just don’t stop.”My legs felt weak, my stitches still burning from childbirth, m
Jason P.O.V I stared at nature at my balcony while taking a cup of coffee and trying to remove what I witnessed yesterday but all manner of forgetting it just kept failing. I received a message from my PR which kept me wondering what could he the cause. “Sir, your presence is needed urgently.” I
Brinda's P.O.V Jason walked in on Nathan confessing how much he loved which left me shocked. “Urmm… Jason, you are here.” I said. Which he left me on mute. I could literally feel the tension in the room and was wondering what I would do to escape. “Nathan, I am glad that you finally woke up whe
Brinda's P.O.V I stepped in hoping that I would be the only one at home but the sound of the television made me lose all hope immediately.I knew facing Jason was not on my agenda today but I knew it was now or never. I walked towards to living room to see him drinking a glass of wine while watch
Jason P.O.V “Arhhg. I should have known.” I screamed while pacing up and down. “I knew that she lived such a life before but I thought that she has finally changed.” I said while pacing up and down. “It is so painful that I felt that things could change between us but I should have known that sh
