Cara's POV His eyes suddenly flicked toward me and I stopped dead in my tracks.My inside started shaking, my hands started trembling at the side. I curled them into a fist to stop myself from breaking. It is not the time.My eyes pricked with tears--tears I’ve kept inside for the past two years.His brown eyes bored into mine, he looked shocked- no, no, not just shocked, he looked bewildered, horrified, afraid, pained, he looked so weak, so broken.You broke him.I couldn't silence the voice in my head this time; I couldn't lie to myself anymore. It is the truth.I broke him.He stood still in his place, few meters separating us, yet the distance in his eyes can't be measured, the distance these two past years left. He didn't move, he didn't even blink.I bowed my head and looked down unable to meet his eyes anymore. It has been long, really long since I last felt this rush of f

 Cara's POV "Dad !"The word came out of my mouth as a mere whisper. Saying it after all this time somehow managed to slightly break my heart."You know cupcakes I prefer it more when you call me daddy but-" Alex started to say something through the phone but i tuned out his words as the phone slipped from my hand and hit the floor.I couldn't help how all of a sudden the memory flashed back right in front of my eyes.I saw it clearly, i saw how the tears left my eyes , how I couldn't shut my cries as i saw him walking away, leaving us behind.Twenty years ago, yet still, the image is still so clear. The memory is still so fresh. The wound is still opened.I didn't want to remember, to recall it. I didn't want to feel that pain again.

 Cara's POVI felt my throat burning as I muttered those words, knowing for sure there is no way back now.I have to give up.I have to oblige to his orders.He won.My dad won.He is going to take from me the only good thing in my life. I have to go and leave the few people I care about behind."You took the right choice." The man whispered beside my ear before releasing me. I directly sank into my knees unable to hold myself."Leave him." He ordered the other men. They let go of Alex and walked away with him.I struggled to my feet and directly ran toward Alex, my heart no longer under my control. I dropped beside him on the ground as he struggled to sit down.He winced, his hand went to his stomach, a low groan emitted from the back of his throat.I gasped as I took a look at his shirt, where blood is covering it all. A pile rose in my throat and more tears left my eyes.
