Chapter Nineteen – The Talk
I slowly faced him as he began to walk towards me. I wanted to back away but I couldn't. He came to stand directly in front of me.
"Why'd you run?"
I wasn't going to make it so easy for him to get answers, so I tried my luck at answers too.
"I'll tell you everything if you answer my questions too."
"Nah, don't even think about placing conditions. Now answer me, why'd you run?"
"I'm not going to answer you, and you won't be able to get it out of me either."
"Oh really?"
"I know you won't hurt me RK."
"And what makes you think that?"
"Everything."
He stared at me for a moment and knew I was right.
"I'll answer one question."
"No, three."
"Two."
"Fine."
My trick to get him agree to more than one question worked, but I didn't know which two questions to ask.
"Why'd you run?"
"I'm asking first."
I scanned my brain for all my questions. Why'd he kidnap me? Why'd he help me? What plan was Adi speaking about? Why was his heart racing when I got close? What did the man at the party say about me? Did we share a past, which I had no idea about? Why did they want to make me a model?
"Why'd you kidnap me RK?"
"I can't answer that. Ask me something else."
"No! If you want my answer, you have to answer me."
"Screw your answer, I don't need anything. It'll be your loss in the end Madhubala. You'll never get fresh air again for your stupid mistake."
"It wasn't stupid!"
"It was stupid. Look where you ended up. Back in the Kundra mansion."
"I ran for a reason."
"What reason?"
"I overheard you and Adi yesterday morning!"
He smirked as he managed to get the answer out of me. I felt like hitting myself for letting him manipulate me like that. How could I let that slip?
"You're a snooper."
"No…I was standing outside your room when I heard you two…"
"I take it we scared you?"
I slowly nodded my head in response.
"You ran because WE scared you? Have we harmed you in any way yet?"
I shook my head no.
"And we scared you? If you knew the entire back story, then you would admit to pulling a stupid move."
"It wasn't stup…"
He grabbed my arms and pulled me close. I looked up into his fierce eyes and felt fear creeping up on me again.
"IT WAS STUPID. WHAT IF SOMETHING HAPPENED TO Y…"
He trailed off as my eyes widened at his words. He cared…but why? We locked eyes and there was a moment of silence until I decided to break it.
"Why do you care…?"
He kept his eyes on mine and I noticed the pain behind his eyes again. His expression began to soften slightly as he hesitated to give me an answer. He gently pushed me away from him and turned his back towards me. I watched as he ran his hand through his hair in a frustrated motion.
"I don't."
I sensed the lie behind his quiet voice. So I stepped closer towards him and asked him again.
"Why do you care RK?"
"I said I don't."
I stepped closer and slowly placed my hand on his shoulder.
"Why…"
He turned around instantly and grabbed my arm, causing me to grimace in pain.
"I SAID I DON'T GOD DAMMIT."
His roaring voice echoed in the room and I felt tears beginning to form in my eyes. Why did I care about whether or not he cared about me?
"Get out. GET OUT NOW."
He let go of my arm and watched as I slowly began to step away from him. He kept his furious eyes on me as I backed away from him slowly. Then I quickly turned and ran out of his room. As soon as I was in the hallway, I leaned my back against the wall and slid down it. I sat on the ground while catching my breath for a minute before I burst into tears. I was lost, confused, and hurt. I didn't like the feeling which overcame me at the moment. I placed my hand on my chest as I attempted to breath between my sobs. I heard his steps coming closer and so I stood and ran into my room before he could see me as such a mess. I couldn't tell if I was hurt by his words or hurt by the fact that I was so close to being free but ended up back at square one. I sat on the edge of my bed and wiped away my tears as I thought back to when RK had defended me at the party, when he had helped me when I had fainted, when he saved me from those monstrous men…I knew he cared. He could deny it all he wanted, but I knew he cared…and something about him was drawing me in. Whatever it was, I needed it to stop. I couldn't be drawn in by my own kidnapper…I just couldn't.
