Cruel Destiny

Natasha POV

"Naty"

Her word was laced in concern for me. The way she called my name had proved that she was indeed worried for me.

"I am sorry" I whispered

"Oh God, Naty. Are you okay? You haven't called me in ages. I was so worried about you. Do you have any idea how much I have wanted to come there and scold you?" She fired all her questions at me.

And in the end, she started to cry. My tears, which has never stopped since I met Liam, also started to fall.

"I am so sorry Kelly. Please forgive me. I have never wanted you to get worried about me. You have your life that's why I have not been disturbing you." I apologized to her.

I could hear her sigh from the other end. She sniffled "It's okay. Tell me how you are."

I took a deep breath and blurted out "Kelly, I am not fine. I was raped last month."

"Naty" she whispered in surprise.

"I was coming back from the club. But someone grabbed me from behind. I was pleading to him but he didn't stop Kelly. He never did no matter how many times I had pleaded."

"It was not the worst part. Wanna know who was behind it. Liam. He is the one who had ordered that man to rape me."

"What? Why would that bastard do that? I will kill him." She roared in anger

A sad smile curled on my lips despite the tears which have been falling.

"He punished me because I had complained about him to the authorities. He had been coming into my apartment without my permission and always threatening me. "

"He had ordered me to stay away from Scott or else he would kill him. And if I ever told this to anyone then he would kill me and Scarlett."

I was now sobbing quietly. I was not in the confinement of my apartment anymore.

"Why didn't you tell me, Naty? I would have helped. It's my fault that I didn't check on you. I am really a bad friend. I am sorry." She cried.

I shook my head as if she could see me and said "Don't blame yourself. It's not your fault."

Then I continued "Kelly he told Mr. Cameron to kick me out of that job or else he would take their restaurant from them."

"Not only this he had told everyone to not give me any job. I have been jobless since that time."

"Kelly today he bought the apartment where I was staying. They kicked me out of there."

I put my hand on my mouth to stifle my sobs. I am embarrassed because I have to ask for her help.

Everyone blames me that I have befriended her because of her money.

Even her parents think that. That's the reason I have never asked for her help till now.

Now I don't care about my dignity because the life of my child is my priority.

I would never be able to forgive myself if something happened to my Scarlett because of me.

And now I have no one here. I will not get any job here because of Liam.

So it's better to leave this city and start a fresh life with my daughter.
