Jai's.

A flare of pain rushes throughand I'm about to rush over and snatch it from his hand when he speaks.

“This is him, isn't it? The man | killed.”

My eyes flash, pain and guilt coursing through me. “Yeah, it is. Forgotten what he looks like?” | ask coldly,

snatching the picture from him, my heart thundering.

“| killed many in that battle. They were but a number... | never remember the faces of those I kill, anyway. They

end up all looking the same...

“Yeah, a killer with no remorse,” | say bitterly, feeling angrier at myself than at him. He killed Jai and I'm here

watching movies and offering him coffee. | gaze down at Jai’s face, my heart breaking.

I'm so sorry...

“He didn’t love you enough.”

His words gutand it feels as if | have been slapped across my face.

“He didn’t, or he would have been right here with you.”

“Because you killed him!” | snarl, closing the gap between us and pushing him with everything | have. He

staggers back a little, but he’s still as emotionless and unbothered as always. “You clearly don’t care! You're just

a murderer!”

“Sure... | knew you were pretty clueless when it cto war and battle, but | didn’t realise you're so uneducated

on the matter. Deaths happen... just the way you all blew up hundreds of men who had no choice but to join in...

| don’t see you and your people being called killers for that, right?”

“You attacked us! We defended!” | scream, feeling my blood boil.

“Yeah, sure. But believeor not, he didn’t love you enough or he would have been here.”

“He died protecting someone! He's a hero, and he’s selfless. He didn’t bother about himself! Unlike you, he put

others first!” | spit.

“As | said, his duty and conscience were more important than you... that was proved when he willingly sacrificed

himself for a man who had no one anyway,”

“Hugh has Zaia!” | snarl.

“Yeah... and she has her man, her kids and her dad now. Lucky her. Who do you have?”

Each sentence is hittinglike a punch in the stomach.

“I have my friends and family, too.” | snarl.

He now advances on me, his good eye glimmering.

“He may have saved Toussaint, but he left you to suffer, alone.”

“He didn’t... he...” my eyes blur with tears, the pain of losing Jai always remained but | can’t deny that he’s

saying the things that deep down in my moments of darkest grief have gnawed at me. “When | was in a coma,

he looked after me. He

didn’t have to, but he did!”

His hand wraps around my throat, but I'm not afraid of him as i glare at him with rage and hurt. Why is he so

calm?

How can he even think like that? The pain inside ofis almost crippling.

“Yeah, because deep down the guilt of cheating on you remained,” he whispers almost mockingly before he

scoffs. “Think whatever you want, but the truth is, if a man can’t put you before the world, then he is nothing

more than a hero who didn’t deserve love.”

“Exactly, he’s a hero! That's something you will never be!” | hiss, glaring up at him. “Jai would have died for

me.”

“You're right, I'll never be like him, cus | wouldn't want to be... like you said, he'd die for you. The thing is, Little

Mate, what good am | to you dead?” 2

“You don’t-"

“I'll show myself out,” he whispers before he lets go ofand leaves.

My heart is pounding as | stand there, hearing the padoor shut as | close my eyes. My emotions are an inferno

within me.

| drop onto the floor, looking at the picture of Jai. His brilliant blue eyes gaze back atuntil my tears blur them

away.

| loved you Jai... but how is it that something inside ofis pullingtowards your killer?

Life is hard.

Death is harder.

But love? Love is the hardest.
