229 229. Promise me, you'll stay forever
Kizy thought for a moment before speaking.
“Ok. I have decided on a gift.” Kizy said, seriously looking towards Markus.
“Go ahead. I am all ears.” Markus replied.
“Before that, I want you to tell me what gift you want.” Kizy asked.
“Are you sure that you have decided on the gift? Or you are trying to think of something and then copy me based on my gift?” Markus said, trying to tease Kizy a little more.
“No. I have already decided.” Kizy said.
“I will get my gift from you tomorrow.” Markus said, a devilish smile pasted on his face.
“But what is it?” Kizy asked.
“You will know that soon. Now tell me yours.” Markus replied.
“I want you to promise me something.” Kizy said.
“Don’t tell me that’s it. I seriously want you to ask for a gift. Expensive, rare, no matter what you want-” Markus was still speaking when Kizy cut him off.
“Can you just stay quiet for a moment and listen. Or maybe just tell me whether you can fulfil my wish or not.” Kizy said.
“Okay. Go ahead.” Markus said, thinking of letting Kizy speak first.
“I want you to promise me that you will stay by my side forever.” Kizy said and paused before she stopped walking, making Markus stop as well, while she looked in his eyes and continued.
Meanwhile something changed in Markus’s eyes, he was almost about to unleash his murderous aura, but stopped on time. But it went unnoticed by Kizy, as she was fumbling to speak her own wish.
“Though I never accepted that I loved you, I always respected and cared for you as my husband.
And I won’t lie, but you have truly given me a lot. You gave me a family to look up to, gave me grandparents that I had yearned for since childhood, took care of me and helped me in every way possible.
Even when that psychotic man was here for me, you fought and suffered everything with me till the end and didn’t give up on me.
And this incident with the professor had truly taught me about how to care for my people. I don’t want them to leave me at any costs.
So promise me Markus, promise me that you will never leave me and stay by my side forever.” Kizy finally finished, tears threatening to fall from her eyes by the time she stopped.
She wasn’t an emotional person to begin with. In fact she was a cold girl.
But Markus had somehow managed to melt her, while he himself changed little by little for Kizy, without even knowing that, he made her remove her walls and open up to him.
“Okay stop, don’t cry. I don’t want you to cry on our anniversary day wifey.” Markus said while wiping a single tear drop and enveloping Kizy into a hug.
“Sorry, I didn’t want to be a crybaby. I always make you-” Kizy was still speaking when Markus spoke.
“I love you the way you are. No matter whether you become a crybaby, a grumpy woman, or even a materialistic girl. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
You are my wife, my love and nothing in this world can stop me from loving you more and more everyday.” Markus said, hugging Kizy and rubbing her head.
“So do you promise to fulfil my wish?” Kizy asked, her voice sounding a little nasal after crying.
Markus closed his eyes for a moment, as if he was gathering his courage to say something. Finally he took a deep breath and opened his eyes, before opening his mouth to speak.
“Kizy, I can’t-” Markus started speaking when Kizy’s phone rang, making her unable to hear what Markus said.
She instantly picked up the call after looking at the person calling.
“Yes yes. Just wait a little, I’ll be there in a moment.” Kizy said, a smile blooming on her face, making it harder for Markus to process what and how he was going to speak to Kizy.
The person on the other hand probably cracked a joke, making Kizy laugh, her laughter making Markus feel even more regretful for whatever thoughts he had.
“No, I am not lying. I am almost there.” Kizy said while holding Markus’s hand, walking back in the direction of the mall, still talking on the call.
The person continued speaking while Kizy kept dragging a lost Markus behind her.
‘Will I be able to do it? Am I being cruel to her? Man that’s the first time she has asked for a promise though! How can I say no? But all this, no maybe saying no now would be better than facing problems later on.
I don’t want her to live like this forever. I will make sure that though I break this promise, it will be worth it.’ Markus thought, his mind filled with all the confusing thoughts.
Finally Kizy hung up the call, looking back towards Markus who looked lost, his aura making him look cold but lonely at the same time.
She felt that Markus was a little different, somehow a little negative, but she didn’t think much into it.
She stopped walking, making Markus almost collide into her.
“Mr. Markus, you are definitely eager and willing to collide with me I guess.” Kizy said in a teasing voice, making Markus focus back on her.
He instantly changed his demeanour, his aura back to normal within a split moment.
“Off course. Just that you look a little ugly. But it’s ok, your figure is enough to compensate for your face.” Markus said, making Kizy jaw drop to the ground.
It took her almost a minute to digest what Markus was saying.
“You.. you!! Pervert!!” Kizy said before walking ahead, not looking towards Markus again.
Markus shook his head before running behind Kizy, grabbing her hand and pulling her back, making her collide with the firm muscle wall.
Kizy was shocked for a moment, but immediately she started pushing Markus away, a cute little pout seen on her face.
“Okay okay forgive me. You are not ugly.” Markus said, making Kizy stop her actions.
“Look there.” Kizy said before pointing towards the direction of the mall, making Markus widen his eyes in surprise.
