Chapter 24. Never Be the Same

KIRA

I literally exploded screaming at Gabriel. But I was tired of everything that was happening to me. He just stood there in front of me saying nothing. I didn’t realize my screams could alert the family.

“Don’t just stand there, say something!” I said with a heavy heart.

“What do you want me to say? I said I loved you and you think I am playing some kind of game. Kira, I will not give up. Do you hear me?”

“Give up on what? I already did, so your attempts to make things better don’t work anymore!”

My words stirred something in him because once again he went silent. I spoke painfully, as an attack on him, but Gabriel left me no choice. It annoyed me that he didn't fight more. He never understood that words meant absolutely nothing to me. “I hate you, Gabriel!”

I didn’t mean to say it. I just wanted him to be there more. He wasn’t listening to me, so I told him I hated him. And that silence mode he went in left me with no choice but to attack him
