A Slave To My Vengeful Lover

Anna's POV:

The moment I wake up I checked for Mark, I didn't find him in the room, and I can see the balcony door was opened a bit, I peeped out my head through the balcony door to check Mark.

There he is...

My face lightens up when I looked at him, I immediately went close to him to wish Good morning but he is busy in watching something in the laptop I went close and understood he is watching the CCTV footage of our party, but when I interrupted him, he immediately paused and shut down the laptop and looked at me with his furious face. I tried to convince him that I want to watch the footage because watching the attacker in the party can be done by Tom and Mark, but there are chances that any person related to John may enter the party to spy on us and I might know him. So if I looked at the video, it would be easy to find any clue.

Mark: "Don't kill my time and get ready first, I don't have time to argue with you, Anna...",

The moment he shouted at me with his furious face, my tears filled my eyes, and I am scared to look at his furious red face, I immediately ran into the washroom and tried to control my tears. Why did he shout at me?

What is the mistake I did?

Maybe he didn't trust me that's the reason he doesn't let me to look at the footage. The thought itself makes me feel like some dagger hit into my heart. My tears overflow, I am trying to control them but by visualizing his serious face, I can't. I feel like I am alone in this world; I don't know why he behaved in such a harsh way, I can't bear if Mark behaved in such away. Okay, he doesn't want me to look at the video, but he should have told me straight away with the reason, but he didn't, instead he shouted at me.

After a few minutes of my cry, I stabilize and get normal. Okay, maybe I really behaved childishly, I should have listened to him, he might have some reasons behind hiding it from me, but I didn't understand and argued with him to watch the footage that's the reason he is serious...

Okay, let it be, I will say sorry to him...

In between my thoughts, I came outside of the washroom and went to the balcony to apologize Mark, but he is not there. I again checked in the room; he is not there in the room too. Maybe he got more angry at me, that's the reason he left the room and went far away from me.

I want to search where he is and want to apologize to him, but he may get more furious if I disturb him again. I will apologize to him once he came to the room. I immediately lay on the bed and hide my face with the towel, tears are rolling down for the thought he left me alone in the room, I never again disturb him, I just wanted to watch the footage, but I don't know he is serious about it, and why should he leave the room?

In between my thoughts, I can hear the door opening sound; maybe Mark came to take some files. My tears started floating; I am not in a position to say sorry to him, I will say it later after I get stabilize with my emotions. 

Mark: Good Morning, Strawberry...

The moment I heard him, I am outburst, but I hid my face under the towel. I feel very happy and blessed the moment I heard him. But he will tease me if he looked at my teary face, so I am trying to stop my tears and cleaning my face with the towel by holding it tightly. I just want to hug him tightly and apologize to him for my childish acts.

Mark: Wake up, dear, how long will you sleep?

(What?

Sleep?

Did he really think that I am sleeping?

How he thinks that I am sleeping after he shouted at me in such a harsh way..?

Mark: Hey.., what happened?

(By finishing his words he forcefully take off the towel from my face, I get up and tried to act normal but by looking at his I hugged him and again started crying, he is tapping on my back to console me...)

Mark: Did you get a nightmare again?

(What?

Nightmare?)

Mark: it's just a nightmare, Anna, don't worry...

(What? 

Why is he thinking that I am crying for a nightmare?

I raised my head to look at him.)

Mark: Shoo... Shoo...

See how's your face turned to red with your cry.

Anna: I didn't get any nightmare, Mark...

Mark: Then what is the reason behind your cry?

Are you still scared for last night's attack?

(I strike my head as no, and thinking why he leads to yesterday's incident, did he really forgot that he just shouted at me?

He looks very casual and treating me as if I just wake up from the bed. It's better to tell him what I feel.)

Anna: I am crying by looking at your furious face.

Mark: What?

My face looks furious?

(He immediately turned to the mirror and checked.)

Anna: you just shouted at me that I am acting childish and killing your time and I still remember your furious face.

Mark: What?

Me?

Why will I shout at my strawberry?

(He immediately pulled me close to his chest and caressing me.)

Mark: Maybe you got a nightmare, Anna...

See,

(He pointed me the table where a tray is placed on it.)

Mark: After my workout, I went to the kitchen and prepared breakfast on my own to surprise you. 

(What?

Am I really day dreaming?

I looked around the room and checked the balcony door. It was closed. What the hell?

Is this really a dream?

I looked at the washroom door and again looked at Mark in confusion. He gain pulled me close to him and caressing me by tapping on my back.)

Mark: Get fresh up soon, Anna, we can have breakfast, okay?

Anna: Mark, I freshened up just a few minutes ago after you shouted at me...

Mark: What?

You just wake up, How you will get fresh up?

and I already told you it's your dream

Go...

At least brush your teeth...

(I nodded my head in confusion and led to the washroom and done brush my teeth and washed my face and looked around once again and came out in confusion. I didn't see Mark in the room, and there is no food tray on the table.

Am I dreaming that Mark is caressing me?

Or am I dreamt that Mark shouted at me?

Or both are my dreams?

In confusion, I came into the room and checked once again; I find the balcony door was opened. I am scared to peep out through the door to check on Mark, but out of curiosity I went to the balcony door to check Mark, he sits near the table, and there is a breakfast tray on the table. He is reading the article in the newspaper, and everything looks very pleasant. Meanwhile, Mark looked at me.

Mark: Hey, Anna, come, let's have breakfast...

(I slowly went close to him and sat beside him, and he opened the breakfast tray. My face immediately lightens up the moment I looked at the tray, and he made a half bowled omelette in heart shape and a toasted bread decorated with cheese in heart shape and the strawberry crush. I blushed by looking at the breakfast and feel eternally happy because he prepared food for me out of his overwhelming love. I immediately take the bread slice and offered to Mark near to his mouth; he eats it by looking into my eyes with his sharp eyes. After a few bites of the sandwich, Mark breaks the silence...

Mark: Anna?

Is that the worst nightmare you ever had?

I never saw your crying face while you are sleeping.

(Actually, I am in a pure dilemma; still, I smiled and looked at Mark.)

Anna: I still feel it happened just a few minutes ago, Mark...

You know, in my dream you suddenly shouted at me...

Mark: Me?

Shouted at you?

I don't get angry without a reason, Anna; you know about it.

Anna: Yes, Mark, but I made a mistake, I should have listened to you in the first instance, but I argued with you like a child.

I feel so sorry, and I want to apologize to you, and I thought you left me alone.

(My eyes are again teary when I visualize the scene. Mark immediately pulled me close to his chest and caressing me.)

Mark: It's okay, Anna, it's just a dream, I am sorry too because I don't want to shout at you even if it is a dream.

Anna: hmmmmm...

Mark: Okay, let's have breakfast, I paused the CCTV footage to watch with you.

(What? What he just said?

Did he just say about CCTV footage?)

I didn't told him anything about cctv footage scene happened in my dream and why he mentioned that he paused the footage?

I immediately raised my head and looked at him.)
