?His Encountered with a Widow?
•(love,lies and suspense)•
?Episode Forty seven?
? Violet POV?
I settled in my car and brou-ght my phone out of my clutch.
I dialed Zayn’s number,
it rings for some minutes but he’s not picking up.
“Damn!”
I redailed it and he’s still not picking.
What do I do?
Yes!
Reid.
I quickly checked throu-ghmy contacts and found his ID.
Great
He should know where Zayn is.
I dialed his number and thank goodness he picks at the second ring.
?”Hi Reid”
?”Hello who’s this?” He asked and I almost roll my eyes.
He doesn’t have my contact.
?”This is Violet” I told him.
“Where’s Zayn right now?” I asked him impatiently.
?”Zayn clearly warned you to stay away from him, isn’t it?”
?”You don’t need to remind me, just answer my question” I half yelled.
?”And what if I don’t?”
?”Zayn’s life is in danger, you fool!” I shrieked into the phone and I heard him gasped.
?”What do you mean?” He yelled.
?”It’s Ryder, he’s planning to meddle with Zayn’s car brake”
?”Just tell me already” I begged.
?”I’ll forward his location to you after I hung up, I’m not in the city as at now but I will get there soon” He says.
?”Okay” I said and ended the call.
I dropped my phone on my thi-ghs.
Reid’s last words rang in my head and I shivered with fear.
“Oh Lord.. please protect Zayn” I shut my eyes and pray silently.
My phone beeps and I quickly picked it from my legs.
Good
It’s the location.
I ignited my car engine and speed into the road.
••••••••
I arrived at the location after some minutes drive.
I stepped out of my car, averting my eyes around the whole place-It’s a bar.
But what could Zayn be doing here? I thought.
I exhale loudly before walking away.
I got to the main entrance, few guys are standing closely to the door.
“Excuse me” I say and I expect them to pave a way for me but instead their eyes are boreing hole into my body.
What the?
“Hey hottie” One of them said, grinning like someone who just won a prize.
“You need a company?” He winks.
I rolled my eyes.
“No.. thanks”
I found my way into the bar and I let my eyes scan the whole place in search of Zayn.
I glance at everyone’s faces in the bar but none looks like Zayn.
My shoulder drops.
“Where are you Zayn?” I muttered.
I sight a figure from a far- the side view really looks like Zayn’s.
I hurried towards the person and it’s truly Zayn.
I sighed with relief.
My mouth went agape at the bottles of liquor on his table.
Why is he doing this?
He doesn’t notice my presence yet, I followed his gaze and it landed on the cu-p on his table.
I look around him and they are just few people around.
“Zayn” I called in a low voice.
He raised his head to look at me and slowly took his eyes back to the table.
“What are you doing here?” He asked throatily.
I breathe out.
How do I explain it?
He look at me again and the expression on his face is what I can’t explain, but he looks pained.
I gulped, not knowing what to say.
He dragged the metal chair backward sluggishly causing it to make an annoying noise.
He stood up swiftly but staggered on his feet.
Oh my..
I quickly held him by the arm but he yanked my hand.
“Just leave me alone” He gr-unts.
“You’re drunk Zayn” I told him pitifully.
He gawped at me and slowly walk past me- with unsteady feet.
I shook my head and follow behind him.
———–
“You’re not driving your car Zayn, I can’t allow you to” I told him for the second time, standing by the driver’s door.
He shut his eyes briefly and opened them again.
“Get out of my way Violet” He says quietly.
“No.. I don’t want to”
“Let’s ride my car..please” I plead tearfully.
“And why would I do that?!” He yells
“My car is fuc-king right here so why?!”
“Hmmm.. you’re not stable to drive right now” I remind him.
He shook his head sideways and grabbed my right arm, meaning he’s going to throw me away soon.
“Let me ride you then” I quickly told him without thinking.
He stare at me for a while and I just plea with my face.
I know I shouldn’t be doing this, I mean why am I sacrificing this much for someone that doesn’t give a damn about me but I can’t just stand to watch him die right?
“Fine” He threw the car immobilizer up and I quickly caught it.
And without sparing me a look, he staggered around the car and opened the pa-ssenger side door.
Hot tears threatened to fall but I sniffed it.
I look around me, hoping Ryder accomplices are not here yet.
Zayn poke his head out.
“Are you coming in or not?” He roared.
I’m sure they are not here.
How would they have access to his car without the immobilizer?
I reluctantly open the car and hop in.
I glance at Zayn and he’s staring out the window.
I quickly leaned down to check the brake.
Thank goodness, it’s still intact.
I smile joyously and ignited the engine.
…………
After few minutes drive,
I’m starting to get tired of the boring atmosphere so I decided to play a song.
I pressed the play bu-tton on the radio.
I smile to the song buzzing from the speaker- it’s one of my favorite song “Already by Beyonce”
“Turn it off” I heard Zayn’s cold voice.
“But Zayn I’m bored” I told him as a matter of fact.
“Then get the fuc-k outta my car” He snorts.
I folded my li-ps as I glance at him.
“But why are you like this?” My voice breaks.
“I’m trying my best to be nice towards you but..”
“I didn’t ask you to” He cut in rudely.
Whoa..
I increa-sed the speed accuracy,fuming.
He just hurt my feelings.
Does he have to paint it to my face?
“Do you wanna die?” He said angrily.
I ignore him.
“Violet!” He shouts.
“What’s it?” I yelled.
“Let me out of the car before you drive yourself to death” He said in a high pitch.
I laugh out loud.
“We’re dieing together Zayn” I sneered.
“You think this is some sort of a joke?”
I just speed like a maniac, ignoring Zayn completely.
I’ve been trying to make use of the brake already and it’s not working; it’s clearly occurred to me that Ryder guys had tampered with the brake.
A truck approaches us.
I became frightened, stepping on the non-existent brake.
This is it.
“Violet!!” Zayn screams but is too late.
We collided with the truck and within a blink of an eye, everything becomes pitch darkness.

?Episode Forty Eight?
?Flora?
“You still have some queries to answer Stella” Dad says from the backseat.
“But I would like us to return from this trip first” He added and I glance at them from the front mirror.
Mum’s face has turned sober already.
Uhmm
We’re gonna resolve everything later but now, I’m feeling ecstatically happy.
I really can’t wait to see my good bad guy again.
I chuckled softly.
‘Good bad guy’
But I don’t un-derstand why I’m feeling a bit anxious, perhaps it’s because it’s been months I saw him.
“You really like him?” I heard Dad’s voice.
I smile and turned to him from my seat beside the driver- David’s is the one driving though.
I knew he’s referring to Zayn.
“Yes Dad” I answered truthfully.
He smile wryly.
“But why don’t you like him?” I questioned curiously.
He laughs and lean his back on the seat.
I sighed and sit properly on my seat.
I wonder what could be the cause of their hatred for each other.. I thought, looking out from the window.
“What’s going on here?” David says.
I glance at him before taking my eyes to the road and there I saw people gathered around a big truck which hit a car.
“Slow down,Let’s see” I told him, not removing my eyes from the scene.
“And why should we do that Sofina?” Dad asks.
Yeah, I was told my real name is Sofina and Mum is still not telling me why she had to change it to Flora.
Dad seems less bothered about it and that tells me they’re both hiding something from me.
The car is not moving again and I’m glad.
I don’t know,but it feels like I have a string connection with someone here.
I watch as an ambulance drove into the scene, the nurses rushed out from the bus and the people move backward.
I saw a guy and a lady lying on the ba-re floor, obviously unconscious.
Uhmm
They ran into the truck I presume.
“Let’s move” Dad says.
“Hold on” I quickly say and opened the car door.
“What are you doing Flora?” Mum scolded.
“We need to save them Mum, as you can see these people aren’t doing anything” I told them in a convinced way.
And without waiting for any further talks, I ran out of the car.
I arrived at the scene, trying not to look at the victim’s bodies.
“What happened here?” I asked a young man standing close to me.
He just shrugged.
Yeah.. I just asked a silly question.
I shook my head and approached a nurse.
“Why aren’t you carrying their bodies?” I asked her, sounding strict as ever.
“We’ll do that ma’am”
“But do you know any of them?” She asked.
I shook my head and slowly take my eyes to where their body is lying.
Stains of blood are over the guy’s head and he..
Hang on
I walked up to his body and I could feel my world shattered immediately.
“Zayn!!!!” I screamed and crouched down beside his lifeless body.
“Who did this to you Zayn?”
“Open your eyes, it’s me Flora open your eyes”
“I’m right here Zayn.. please open your eyes” I tapped his cheeks continuously but he’s not moving.
“Zayn!”I placed my head on his che-st, crying profusely.
“Don’t do this to me Zayn” I begged.
“You need to move away ma’am” A nurse said and I watch as other nurses carry Zayn on the emergency bed and headed to the ambulance.
I ran behind them but someone blocked my way.
I look up- it’s David.
“You need to calm down Flora, he’s un-der control now” He says and the tears rushed out from my eyes on their own.
“That’s Zayn..my Zayn” I pointed a finger towards the ambulance as I cry.
“It’s okay Flora, we’re going after the ambulance too” I heard mum’s voice behind me.
I pushed David’s by the che-st and run to the nurses standing by the ambulance.
“Flora” Mum and Dad called.
I made to enter the bus but one of them held me by my arm.
“You can’t come with us” She stated.
I sniffed my running nose before turning to her with a ha-rd look.
I freed my hand from her hold.
“If you hold me once again, you will hate yourself” I threatened and crawled into the ambulance.
I kneel down beside Zayn’s bed and place his hand in mine, staring at his closed eyes.
He has Oxygen on his nose.
What could have gone wrong?
What?
“Zayn” I muttered.
Hold on.. why are we still waiting?
“Move this ambulance please” I half yelled.
But no one is responding.
“Driver!” I shouts.
The two nurses brou-ght in the second victim, I watch them as they shifted her bed beside Zayn’s and my eyes dilated at once.
It’s.. it’s Violet.
Oh my..
What was she doing with Zayn?
I’m sure she’s behind this.
They shut the door and the ambulance starts moving with its siren wailing.
The nurses rushed to Violet’s, one was fixing the Oxygen to her nose and the other was helping with the tools.
“You two can’t possibly be with her right?”
“So come check him too” I ordered.
They both exchange a look before turning to me.
“We attended to him already” One of them said.
“He’ll be fine right?” I asked and they both gave a short nod.
I shifted my eyes back to Zayn.
Non stop tears are rolling down my cheeks.
I moved back his we-t blood hair from his forehead.
“I’m so sorry Zayn”
“I was supposed to be by your side” I sobbed.
“Zayn” I heard a weak voice.
I listened again.
“Zayn” the voice came again.
I look up and realized the voice belongs to Violet.
What exactly is her problem?
She’s at the verge of death, yet she still has the mouth to call Zayn’s name.

•Ryder POV•
“I’m sure he’s dead by now boss” Robert announced and I smile triumphantly.
“But there was a lady with him” He added and my brows creases in confusion.
“A lady?”
“Yes boss”
Then that will be Violet for sure- serves her right though.
“Good job”
“I’ll forward the balance to you tomorrow” I told him and hung up at once.
“What’s up Ryder” Sage greeted as he walk into the living room.
“Hey bro” I replied cheerfully.
“I’ve been expecting you since yesterday, hope no prob?” I asked him.
He sighed and sit close to me on the sofa.
“Ryder” he called.
I raised a brow at him.
“Is anything the problem?” I asked him again.
“Why aren’t you coming home?” He asked and I breathe out with relief.
I scratched my forehead with my middle finger as I sip at my wine.
“I’ll come home soon” I told him.
“Don’t tell me that Ryder, you’ve been repeating the same thing since last few weeks” He scolded.
“Your parents are worried sick about you and your Mum told me you’re not picking her calls”
“Maybe I should just let them know your whereabouts then” He said nonchalantly.
“You won’t do that Sage” I shake my head.
“Then tell me something I need to know” He fumes.
“I’m tired of this coverup”
I exhale softly.
“I’ve found Flora” I announced and his eyes wide-ned.
“What?”
“I mean.. where? And how?”
“It’s a long story Sage”
“It’s a good news, you should bring Flora home already. Your Mum will be happy isn’t it? Where’s she?” He rushed his words.
“Calm Sage, I really can’t tell you everything in details”
“But there was actually a factor hindering my way with Flora” I told him but he just furrowed his eyebrows.
I smile at his confusion look.
He can’t un-derstand.
Sage is my close friend truly, and I like him.
But he can never keep up with my behavior and that’s the reason I hide many things from him.
“Don’t think too much” I place a hand on his thigh.
“The factor has been cleared so Flora and I are coming home soon” I squealed happily like a kid.
Yeah.
My Flora is coming to me soon.
After I deal with that a*shole- David.
