This Time, It's Forever

Well, that was a week ago. Now Lyla was getting annoyed by Dylan's slow movement. Why is it so hard for him to find someone to crack the code? It's been two weeks already and she's really going to get really angry when he come here and save her later. Braxton have been treating her nicely ever since her episode. Whatever she wanted to eat, he will get it for her no matter what. He, for one thing wanted to avoid having his house turns into some crimes scene that no one can solve. Which is mainly why he's been fulfilling whatever she wants. He would let her eat dinner together with him since he's working during day time. He kept asking Lyla what else does she know about him and how did know him when he never mention his name before. She only told him the only person who's brave and have enough power to do so is only him. Just she's not sure if Dylan would think the same way as she does. Where is that damn man anyway? Feeling frustrated, her mood just went down. The clouds starts to darken and there's even thunder can be heard. Others who were watching her are feeling anxious and they immediately call their boss. Only their boss can talk with this unreasonable woman. When Lyla turn around, stomping her foot towards the door other people quickly went into hide. Lyla's face just keep on getting gloomier. By the time she reach the living room, she was already shouting. Cursing his own husband for being late and in the end cry at the corner of the living room. By the time Braxton reach home, that's the scene that he saw. She was sitting awkwardly on the cold floor and crying her heart out. Flabbergasted by the scene he went to her. Now he needs to think how to make this woman talk. Otherwise she's going to keep crying endlessly. He's worried it will affect the baby inside her stomach. No matter how ruthless he was but he's not going to do something so shallow like killing innocent baby inside her stomach. It's never in his nature to do so.

"Hurmmm, Lyla do you want something to eat? Is that why you're crying?" He tried to ask her in the most gentlest way. He knew pregnant woman have delicate feeling but what he didn't know is they would get really emotional on unreasonable things. He saw too many stuff from the two weeks Lyla's been here. Lyla only shook her head and never cease her crying. Braxton had a feeling he's going in another complicated matters that he need to dig. He just need to keep on asking the right question just so he can make Lyla talk to tell him what is the matter.

"Then, you didn't like the food today?"

Shaking head.

"The house's arrangement?"

Shaking head.

"Then, did someone bully you?"

Nodding. Braxton sigh in relief. At least he's getting there somehow.

"Do you want to tell me who?"

"Dylan."

"..."

"How did Dylan bully you when he's not here?"

Lyla starts crying loud again. Braxton panicked. It must have been something wrong with the question. He clears his throat.

"How did Dylan bully you?" Lyla stop crying and looked up to him.

"He didn't come and get me."

"..."

"Does Dylan know where you are?"

"..."

"Because he's an idiot. It supposed to only took him one week to crack the code." Lyla continued.

"..."

Before he could say anything more, he suddenly heard a rumble outside his house. When he got up and try to take a look, dozens of men wearing black mask already surrounded his guards and enter his house holding a gun on their hand. Behind them, a man looking dashingly handsome walks in his lazy pace locking his eye to the person who's standing at the living room.

"Where is she Braxton?" Dylan asked calmly. However anyone who knows Dylan would know the calmer Dylan sound, the greater the danger would be. Braxton was just about to answer when another voice enters his ear.

"Tell him I'm not here." Lyla said, grudgingly. Braxton who heard it can only rolled his eyes up. This complicated pregnant woman.

"She's not here." He still complied because Lyla's storm is greater than Dylan at this very moment.

Dylan who heard her voice finally realize she was seating on the floor. Her eyes are red and puffy and there's still tear stains on her face. He glared at Braxton who's just smiling at him like he didn't do anything wrong.

"Lyla, come here. Let's go home." Dylan said ignoring what she said just now.

"Braxton, tell him what i told you." She ordered. Braxton looked at her, raising one of his eyebrow up. You're ordering me now? Of course, he could not say it out loud. He felt like he's been in her command ever since he kidnapped her and brought her here. Once again, Braxton clears his throat, turn to look at Dylan.

"She said you bully him because you didn't come and get her within a week. She even said you're an idiot because you couldn't crack the code earlier." He said blandly.

"And tell him, i'm not going back."

"And she said, she's not going back. Wait, what?" Braxton who's been repeating every word she said finally realize what she was saying just now. Not going back? Why? Because she haven't had enough making his life living in hell? He turn towards Dylan who's now looking at him interestingly. Before he could say anything more, Lyla already went up the stairs and from below he could hear the slamming of the door. Was it a blessing he made the door so sturdy? To be slammed by the supposed to be the kidnapped person. He glared at Dylan who's already ordering his men to retreat.

"Get her out of here." Braxton said. Unfortunately Dylan just ignore him. Instead he makes Braxton speechless with his next word.

"I'm staying here." And Dylan head towards the stairs and leaving him all alone. These two idiot couple. Just what did he got himself into?
