Chapter 325: Tina is missing

His response rang bells in her ear, she raised up her face as she stared directly at him.

" What are you saying? " Tina asked in a confused tone.

He could see her hand shake, he believed that she could not take in what he had just told her.

" Tina, I know this must be hard for you, I know you find it hard to believe what I have just told me " Enzo said as he got up from where he was sitted.

He walked up to the edge of the dinning table where Tina was sitted.

He drew out a chair and slowly sat down.

" You are right " Tina said.

" I am a writer....romance, triller, fantasy and erotica, i know it is of no use telling you this but I am telling you so you can understand why I sent my boys " Enzo said as he cracked his bones.

Tina looked down at the plate in front of her, she could immediately understand why he spoke to her like that at the hospital that day.

" Just get to the point " Tina said.

Lorenzo slowly drew closer to her making her flinch back wards as she rested her back fully on the chair 

" What are you doing? " Tina asked as her voice cracked.

" Please stay still " he said as he maintained eye contact with what he was looking at.

' what is he looking at? is any thing wrong with my face? ' Tina asked her self as she felt her heart beating so fast right on her chest, she could hear her heart beat right there inside her ear.

She kept on staring at him as he looked away and picked up a napkin.

He turned and slowly stretched his hand towards her lip as he carefully wiped out the food crumps that got stuck besides her lips.

" See? " He said as he showed her the napkin.

" What are you? A child that get crumps stuck to her lips? " Enzo asked as he smiled widely.

He quickly moved away from get and sat back on his chair.

" Thank you " Tina appreciated as she picked up a napkin and wiped her lips in a concentric manner.

" I was experiencing a writer's block and I needed a woman who I could use to wave it away, so I asked my boys to get me one " Enzo explained, he was so surprised at himself because in as much as he lived a quiet life, he had never explained himself so calmly to any one other than his mother and Dominique.

" A woman? without her permission? that is not right! " Tina asked as her voice trembled, even though she saw him as a weirdo she never expected that he would want to do any thing like that to any one not to talk of the victim been a woman.

She quickly stood up.

" I can not stand your sight, I can sit with a pervert who takes advantage of women " Tina furiously said as she walked out of his presence.

He had expected this to happen but that moment when she kept mute, he had underestimated her but now it seemed like she had finally understood.

He also stood up and quickly walked towards her, he walked faster and went ahead of her then he turned around and faced her.

" please hear me out, I am not that kind of man you think I am " Enzo pleaded as he enclosed his hands in hers.

" Then why are you telling me this? you could have lied or some thing but you are telling me even when you know I would hate you for it, even when you know I would never want to see you again " Tina scolded as she cracked.

" Those men.... Those men, they forced themselves on me, they touched me, I pleaded with them, I begged them to let me go, they made an impression that meant that they wanted to take advantage of me as a woman, they made it seem like it was necessary they took me with them saying I was the perfect one " Tina poured out her heart ad tears uncontrollably poured down from her eyes. She could not hold it any more, if only Gavriel had not sent her out of the car, all of this would not be happening.

Lorenzo was pained, every tear that fell from her eyes made him feel guilty, made him curse him self.

But there was nothing he could do now, he quickly spread his hands and closed the spaced between them, he held her so tight as if he had intended to never let her go.

" I am sorry for the pain I caused you, I never knew they did that to you, I am so sorry, I mean it.... I am bit that type of man you think I am " Lorenzo apologized as he patted her on her hair as she kept on sobbing.

" I am trying sorry, you should punish me from my wrong doing, I promise to accept any punishment you give to me as long as you forgive me " he said as he released his grip from her and held her face with his palms then he wiped her tears.

" Stop crying okay, I do not like to see you like this " Lorenzo said as he arranged her hair.

" They almost took away my pride, I would have been a broken woman if that happened but I was courageous enough to try my best and escape " Tina said as she slowly stopped crying, but she could not help it.

" How did you find me? " Tina asked curiously.

" Let's sit " Lorenzo said as he took her hand in his and led her back to the dinning table.

" I almost ran you over, while you were trying to escape, then I brought you back here and went over to them and asked them where the woman they said they captured for me was then they said you had escape so I showed them a picture of you to be sure if you were really the one they captured and when the confirmed it, I felt so uneasy, I am sorry " Lorenzo explained.

" About them almost taking advantage of you, it was my fault, I asked them to but I never knew it was you and I never knew that they took you by force because I never intended to any one by force, I just wanted any woman to walk in here to made that decision by herself not just because I was going to pay her but because I wanted it to be the woman's choice " Lorenzo added.

" Find a place in your heart to forgive me " Lorenzo apologized sincerely.

" It alright since you have already apologized to me " Tina said as he patted her in her back.

" How did you get to know my name! " Tina asked as she tried to release his grip from her hand.

" I do not know, I just said it and I believing me, that was not necessary at all " Lorenzo said making Tina stare at him.

" It's alright " Tina said.

" Tina can I please talk to you about some thing " Enzo asked and Tina raised her face up.

" Sure, you can go ahead, I am all ears " Tina said.

" I am sorry for intruding in to the private matters of the elders but I saw some thing that not only did my systemic easy and not only did I see it a very close friend is mine saw the scenery as well " Enzo said as he adjusted fully to her.

" can I not talk about this today? " Tina asked, she could not bear the frustration.

" Okay, if you say so, I would leave you to it until you are ready to talk to me. " Lorenzo said as he stood under attempting to leave the dinning hall..

" Why? Where are you going to? " Tina asked as she quickly gripped his hand in hers.

" I thought you would have loved to spend some time on your own, I was going to return after all " Lorenzo said and Tina got up immediately.

" I have passed through alot of things lately, would you love to hear ' Tina said and Lorenzo became surprised because he had a feeling that she was also going through alot.

" Yes I would love to hear every single thing, every single thing " Lorenzo said, he hope that she would tell him every thing without hiding any thing.

" Okay, I hope you would not regret it " Tina said as she smiled.

She touched the rim of her shirt as she tried to pull of her shirt, he knew what she wanted to do and he did not want her to that.

" Please can you not show me? " Lorenzo said as he held her hand still.

" Let me guess, you had already seen my scar, what I was about to show you " Tina asked and Lorenzo nodded his head.

" I did not intend to that was why I said what I said earlier but the citizens really care about them selves " Tina said.

At this point, Enzo could do not say any other thing, as he quietly watched Tina.

" What about last night? Were you the one who cleaned by wounds and dressed my up? " Tina asked as she waited to hear an answer.

" Yes, I was and I am so sorry.... I am sorry about every thing i have done which you are against " Lorenzo apologized. 

" It is okay, you do not need to worship or feel sorry about it, every one has that bad thing that they have encountered " Tina said calmly as she rubbed her hands on her face.

" Lorenzo? " Tina called.

She called as she stood up from where she was sitting and walked up to him.

" mmmmhhh " Lorenzo responded as he looked up at her.

He was scared of some thing and that was the fact that she would return back to where she came from.

" I want to thank you for every thing you have done for me, I really appreciate it and I hope to repay you some day, in my life I have never expected some one to do this for me, to cherish me but you did,and for that I am greatly indebted to you " Tina said, it made Lorenzo feel like she was leaving.

" Why are you saying this? you do not have to say this, I did what I felt was right and I decided not to lie to you " Lorenzo said as he held her hand.

' please do not tell me you are leaving ' Lorenzo said in his heart and he brought her in to his arms for a warm embrace.

" It is okay, I am fine now " Tina said, she wondered why Gavriel could not do this for her, she could tell that apart from the fact that Lorenzo saved her, he felt some thing special for her but she was not sure.

" I have to leave! " Tina said calmly as she twitched her fingers.

" What? please do not leave, there are a lot of things I would love to know and you are still recovering, please do not leave " Lorenzo pleaded as he tightened his hold on her.

" Please say you would not leave, say it... If you can not say it then do some thing, give a sign and I will know that you would not leave, hold my hand if you would not leave then you hold my arm if you will leave. Tina please " Lorenzo pleaded.

" I have not begged any one the way I am begging you right now " Lorenzo said as he waited to know what she would do but she kept mute all the while time.

" Please stay with me for a while, please " Lorenzo said as tears welled up in his eyes, he sincerely did not want her to leave now.

He wanted to take good care of her and make sure that all her injuries had healed up.

He wanted to do a lot of things with her, he was certain that she had gone through a lot of Crisis.

He wanted to know more about her, he wanted to know what she was doing in south Korea and why she was alone at that time when Gray found her.

He had a lot of questions for her.

" Tina.... Tina.... Tina " he called her name as he wondered why she was not responding to him, he hands were loosed on his back.

He slowly withdrew from the hug and looked at her face.

" Silly, so you have not been listening to my pleas all this while rather you slept, I do not want to go too far but I will take this as a sign that you would not leave me now " Lorenzo said as he smiled.

He carefully carried her up to his room and placed her on his bed after which he covered her up with the duvet.

She looked like a sleeping beauty.

" Sleep well and when you wake up we will talk better, I just hope to would not repeat what you said about returning " Lorenzo said as he caressed her cheek.

At this point he needed to work, he had been busy with her that he totally forgot about his work.

Lorenzo walked up to the centre of this yard and tell me where the centre of this room is..

' it is six feets right in front of you ' a voice whispered to him and he slowly walks up to the centre of the room and sits down as he begins to meditate..

*****

" Gavriel, what the hell is wrong with you, why is Tina's not back yet and why can I not feel her presence around "

Nicole said to her self.

She wondered what was happening there, she waited for him patiently to lure me in to picking his call by doing some thing doing some thick processes.

" Tina, I hope you are doing very well where ever you are and you are showing your self that you can live a far more better life " Nicole said.

" Tina, I have been awaiting your return, I also have been expecting that you would return soon but I have no other idea when it where but my hopes are high that you will return "

" I do not know for sure what you are going through in the hands of that man you call your boss but as much as possible so well to withstand " Nicole texted in her phone and sent it to Tina hoping that she would only try to get through her by this means of communication, since she was not picking her calls.
