He used to hate her Chapter 24

No. My mom is not a killer. This is a lie. She cared about every single person in the world. Killing
someone is...

My Aunt arrived to take me there. Tracy's death is one tragic accident and this is how it affected my
parents. They are bringing more trouble and do they even remember that they have a second
daughter? Am I even visible to them?

I saw my mom behind the bars looking like a psycho. If someone tells me that my mom would be a
killer, I would have laughed like it's a joke that no one would believe. Now, I'm seeing it right in front of
my eyes.

" You are changed. What Tracy had was an accident? Not a planned murder. How could you kill
someone for that? This isn't you." I yelled, with my hands on the bar. I could get inside if they let me.

" He killed my daughter. That's all I care about. My Tracy was driving carefully. There's not a single
mistake in her driving and now she ended up dead. So, I killed the driver with a gun. Blame me. I don't
care." She replied casually like it was nothing.

" I can't believe you did this. It's been a month, I been there with me all the time. I didn't ask you
anything when you didn't even cook for me. I adjusted everything for you, cause you are dealing with
this pain. I was dealing with the pain too. But you killed someone and ended up here without caring
about the future. Did dad even came to visit you?"

" I did what I have to do. I'm not regretting that I killed someone who killed my daughter. And no. Your
dad didn't visit me. I have no idea where he is."

" And you don't care, right?" I asked her as my Aunt pulled me away from my mother. " Let's go,
Madison. She's not herself. Our time is almost over. I will try to get a bail for her." My Aunt whispered
pulling me away like my mom might hurt me too at this stage.



" I don't care," She replied without any emotions. After this, I got nothing to tell. There's no use in
helping her to get out of this jail.

" Right, you don't. Do you know another thing? You didn't only kill the truck driver. You killed your
daughter too. The one standing right in front of you. You lost both of your daughters. Tracy's loss wasn't
your fault. But this is your fault. You are never going to see me again." With the last words, I left the
place with my Aunt.

I haven't seen them for years. I got selected to study abroad. Whatever Tracy wanted for me
happened. That must be her last wish. So, I used the opportunity to leave my hometown and never
come back.

My mom stayed in the jail without bail while my dad isn't capable of caring about me or my mom. My
Aunt visited my mom sometimes and dad used to return to his house some days.

My Aunt was the only one who helped me study and I'm paying her back for everything she has done
for me. This is how my life has been going and it should be in the past. I want to move on and get a
happy life here in this town.

.....

" I wish I have this memory loss instead of you. I will free of all the terrible things in the past," I tried to
humour myself and Xander so I won't let myself cry.

" You don't deserve any of this, Madison. I wish I met you years ago. I would have not let you go
through this alone," Xander said. You met me, Xander but you and I aren't supposed to get a chance to
know each other.

"Your sister always wanted you to be happy. You can still find happiness. No matter what you been
through, I won't let anything affect your life. You deserve a happy life with your pasts behind you. I will



make sure you get it. My memory loss is nothing compared to your life." He promised to look right
through my eyes, with his hand caressing my cheek and landing on my lips touching it tenderly.

" I'm good now, Xander. I will get over it. That's why I'm here in this town putting the past behind me.
And right now, I'm feeling more alive than I have been before." I told him, cheering myself and
embracing my moment with Xander. Being with him makes my life happy. I will never be a depressed
girl if I get to be with Xander forever.

" And you make me forgot about every other stress I had. you lighten up my mood from the day I saw
you. I promise you, you will have an amazing life more than you could imagine."

" Thanks, Xander. These words enough for me now," I felt Xander's forehead touching mine. He didn't
take his eyes off me even after the conversation ended. He leaned closer and kissed me gently. I'm too
shocked to react. I was the one who kissed him years ago. And he never wanted to see me again. But
today...today was not the same compared to our past.

When I didn't reject him, Xander kissed me deeply, pulling me closer to him. I know to continue this. But
I shouldn't. Something makes me stop this.

" You are still engaged," I blurted when I broke the kiss.

" I'm sorry...I didn't mean to say this but seeing you engaged bothers me." I regretted what I said
earlier.

" I will...you don't like me...is that why you are rejecting me, Madison?" Xander has a hurt look on his
face. But he doesn't know that I loved him for a very long time and I still do.

" No, that's not the truth. Your wedding is the only thing that worries me. Believe me. If I don't like you, I
would have never let you kiss me." I said, meaning that I like him. But I couldn't say I love him right



now. I can't say any truth from the past.

" Hear me out. I know it's only been a week since I met you after the accident. But I love you, Madison.
One of the reasons to call off the wedding is Veronica's terrible character. But to be honest, I'm in love
with you. And I don't want to spend the rest of my life without you," Xander confessed his love for me.
This moment was supposed to happen after many years. But I couldn't believe that we both are meant
to be together.
