Her parents didn't allow her to go out in case she meet Hiro. They took her cell phone too. She stayed in her room all the time.
" Haruma, I am thinking of transferring her to a foreign school. Are you willing to transfer with her. I was feeling unsecure about sending her alone" Her dad asked him standing in the house front Yard.
" Yes, sure. But uncle are you sure that it's a good choice for her?"
" I'm sure, because I know that boy's heinous nature. He is a person capable of doing Anything. I don't want my daughter to get involved with him and get hurt "
" I will try my best to protect her " he was not happy about it but he hated her to get hurt.
" Then I will leave it to you " her dad said taping his shoulder and heading inside.
The next few days she had to stay in her room locked until the day of her engagement.
Hiro couldn't reach her by any means. He asked her classmates for her address.
Her Mom entered the room and said " Change your dressing. Everyone will arrive soon"
" I'm not going to. I can't accept it"
Her dad was listening outside.
" Your dad is doing this for your sake darling"
" For my sake? then he should at least listen to me instead of forcing me to get engaged. Hiro said he was going to change"
At that moment her dad brought tab in front of her " Do you think such a person can change"
A video of Hiro and Rang gang members was being played. They were standing in front of school and Hiro would grab the breasts of female teachers just to see their reactions. Hana became numb after seeing this " Hiro" she whispered.
Her dad said " Change your clothes. Don't embarrass me in front of everyone"
She had no excuse to offer anymore.
**o**
Haruma entered the room. She was ready wearing a little white frock.
He held her hands " Are you okay?" he continued " I thought you always liked me. Maybe I lost the good timing to confess"
" I did liked you, Even a few days ago I was into you. But suddenly at some point I started loving him more than anyone"
" Don't worry I am doing this because Uncle wants me to. I will never force you to get married to me even if we would be engaged. It's true that I like you, but I will wait until you forget about him"
**o**
The engagement was held and they exchanged engagement rings in front of all the family members. It was a little engagement party in which all her family members including her grandparents were present. They also had their flight in the evening.
Hana family and Haruma was seeing off the guests and Hiro got there. He noticed that something was off . He noticed Haruma suit then looked at Hana dress. He walked to her with fast steps.
Her father wanted to stop him but Haruma stopped him. Hiro held her hand in which she was wearing ring " What is this?"
" Haruma could you bring me the tab please" she asked.
Haruma brought her tab and she showed him the video " And what is this?" her voice trembled in pain. She wanted to cry but held back her tears.
Hiro was taken back by this held her hand and clarified " I told you I will change. Believe me I can fix everything"
She pulled her hand out of his grip " There is no need to. It's too late "
She walked to the door and entered the house. Haruma and her family followed her leaving Hiro outside. He couldn't leave and stood there looking for a chance to talk to her.
After a long time Hana and Haruma came out with their suitcase and settled in her dad car. Hiro tried to talk to her but her dad stopped him. The car was ready to leave. Hiro kept knocking at the car for Hana attention but no use. He saw the leaving car. He was reminded when his dad left him alone in an apartment when he was fourteen. He have been abounded for the second time.
Hana couldn't hold back her tears anymore and started sobbing.
**o**
Time passed and Hana became less and less social. Every time Haruma talked to her, all she talked was about Hiro.
" I thought it was momentary, but I miss him" Tears fall down her eyes " I miss him so much" She started sobbing.
Her life was just like that.
Haruma still showed outstanding athletic skills in every competition and gold medals just lined up in their apartment.
Two years passed by. One day Hana was walking to her apartment where Haruma and she was living together. A black van stopped near her and some masked man got down. They dragged her into the van and made her unconscious.
She was brought back to Japan with cancer patients. When she woke up she found her hands bound by rope . A black cloth was wrapped around her head upto her neck. By the movements she guessed she was being moved in some kind of vehicle. She was so scared. Sweat was streaming down her body.
In a while vehicle stopped and someone dragged her to a chair and removed cloth wrapped around her head. Her lips were sealed with tape. They removed the tape and untied her .
She looked ahead and Hiro was sitting on a seat in front of her. His bloodshot eyes looked like enraged eyes she saw first time when he hit her with baseball bat.
" Hiro"
He stood up and came to her and brought his face closer to her's " I told you, I am your only centre. How dare you wander off"
He took out the knife. He was about to carve on her shoulder and saw the modified crescent tattoo. He signaled all the mans to go out. They go out and closed the door.
He cut her shirt off to look closely. Tears were falling down her cheeks like a stream.
There was a start drawn near moon . It was half merged in the moon. An alphabet H was drawn down the start. He slowly touched the tattoo with his fingers and pulled her to stand up facing him " Do you love him a lot"
" Whom are you talking about?"
" Who else? your dear husband"
" Do you think I love him"
" Then why else will you live with him under same roof. You even have his name carved on your back"
" I'm living with him because you left me with no choice"
" But I told you" he shouted " I told you I will fix everything"
" And this is how you are fixing things"
" Because you abounded me he said firmly.
Her lips trembled in pain " I never wanted to, I wanted to believe in you. But I was forced to leave you. But still you should have corrected yourself. How could you go back being a gangster "
" Why are you scared that I will kill your lovely husband?"
"Hiro "
" Because that was the only way to bring you back. Every time I thought you sleeping with another man my blood boiled at those thoughts. Bringing you back was the only way "
" It's not like that _"
Hiro chuckled " Have you learnt some acting? "
She hugged him tightly and started sobbing " I wanted to run away with you but I thought I must be driven by momentary emotions. But I was wasn't, I truly loved you and I still love you"
He pushed her away " Is that a new way to play with my emotions"
She forcefully hugged him again regardless of him resisting " It's okay if you are a bad person I can still accept you. But I don't want to live away from you"
He couldn't push her away anymore and wrapped his arms around her.
