《Obey Me, Stepmom》Chapter 24

Y/n's Point Of View.
"What's going in here?"
I was surprised when I suddenly saw Ran and Rindou entering the house. Just to see me getting my size for my wedding dress.
I couldn't even look at Ran. Mr. Haitani is sitting in front of me.
"What's this all about?" Rindou asked once again, while scanning the busy area.
"They're measuring Y/n for her wedding dress." Mr. Haitani replied.
I saw how Rindou's expression changed as well, but like I said.. I couldn't look at Ran's direction, I was embarrassed and scared of what I might see.
"Why so early?" Rindou sat next to his father.
"The wedding is next month, son. So I don't think it's early." He replied as he was browsing on his laptop.
"Next month already? Aren't you two rushing a little bit?" Rindou was full of questions, and I saw how irritated Mr. Haitani becomes.
I think it was his passion to just go to work and leave everything to me with money in my hand. He's been working through his laptop, and didn't even bother to ask me what type of dress I want..
Because he already had everything planned.
"Son, I am not getting any younger. And I want to marry her as soon as possible." That's his only reply.
"Well, then we're not going to make it at their wedding, brother." Rindou glance at Ran.
I was surprised to hear that which made me look at Ran who's just standing there, looking at these people working on me.
"And why is that?" Mr. Haitani asked.
"We're moving to France, for good. But my brother hasn't decide yet-"
"I have decided already." Ran cut him off, "I'm going with you."
It seems like my whole world stops. After he said those, he started walking away as I followed him with my eyes. Hoping that he would look at my direction, but he didn't.
He's moving away? He's leaving me here?
"Well I guess he's coming." Rindou shrugged, "We'll be leaving tomorrow night. I know you wouldn't mind if your sons will finally move out from your house."
"Just visit us from time to time. I won't stop you this time because you're already a grown man." Mr. Haitani replied.
I do remember Mr. Haitani telling me that they've been wanting to move to France ever since they're 16 years old. Mr. Haitani always stops them when they're planning to move out.
I felt as if someone just splashed a cold water on me that made me froze on my spot. I don't even know what to feel after hearing that.. for good?

I'm pretty sure Ran will find a better French girls there.. someone more mature and won't reject him as many as I did.
Well I cannot back out now. I'm also scared of Mr. Haitani.. I guess this is how everything will end for the both of us.
He deserves someone better.

"Y/n, he's a criminal. Who knows maybe he's just treating you nice right now so that when you finally decided to leave his father he'll torture you like shit." Raven said as she face palmed.
"No, Raven. I feel like he really loves her. You really have to think this straight, I mean they're both rich anyways. If you're really going for the bigger bank account then sure.. go for your fiancé.. but after that he will treat you as if you don't exist, he barely comes home because he's obsessed with work." Morgan added, contrasting Raven.
I'm in FaceTime with my friends. And I'm ranting about how Ran is leaving tonight.
Yesterday? He completely ignored me, I texted him a lot to come talk to me.. I waited for hours but he didn't came. I wouldn't blame him honestly.
"At least you're alive!" Raven sarcastically rolled her eyes.
"Money isn't everything.. if getting rich means feeling lonely at the same time, would you want that? Knowing that there's a better guy out there that can make you feel loved?" Morgan spoke again.
"Feel love If you're dead." Raven added once again.
She used to like him, but after that incident, she literally told me to stay away from him every time she can.
"Anyway, in the end of the day.. it's still up to you, Y/n.. we're just here to support you." Morgan smiled at me through the screen.
"And tell you that you shouldn't marry a criminal."
I sighed, my head is so heavy right now. It's almost midnight and I'm over here trying to find out what to do with my life.
I don't want him to leave, but at the same time I can't just call off the wedding.. I'm really scared of Mr. Haitani, who knows what's he's capable of.
"Shouldn't you pick someone you felt safe the most? You told us that you're scared of your fiancé.. I feel like you should always trust your guts." Morgan finally ring a bell on me.
I am scared of Mr. Haitani, he seems like a harmless man but.. I don't know, I just had a weird feeling that he might do something if I called off the wedding.

"I am but-"
I was cut off when I heard the loud door of the garage being opened. I froze as I felt my heart suddenly starts to beat so fast.
They're leaving...
"I-i have to go." I immediately closed my laptop as I rushed to the door. I saw the lights were open and some maids just got in from the main door.
I was panting as I ran downstairs as fast as I can to reach the main door. The maids were all surprised to see me going down.
But as soon as I open the main door, a car run passed me fast.. and disappeared outside the gate.
"Who was that?" I asked the guards.
"It was sir Ran and Rindou, ma'am.. leaving for the airport." He replied.
No, no, no.. I can't let that happen.
I was sweating balls as I don't know what to do. All I could think of is to follow them. "Keys! I need keys!"
The guard panic when I plead my palms to him. He immediately searched for keys on his pockets and pulled out one. It was the car they use to go grocery shopping. This will do.
I was wearing my pajamas, with no slippers nor socks at all as I ran towards the garage. I even stepped on a small rock that made my eyes squint in pain.
But I didn't waste my time to get in the car, I really don't want him to leave me here..
And as I was trying to follow their car, my eyesight keep getting blurry because of my tears. I nonstop wipe my face with my arms as I was focusing on driving.
This were the moment that I realized that I really need and want him in my life.. he treats me so special and I don't even wanna feel that from others anymore.
I only want Ran, and no one else.
I got to the airport, but my car was stopped by three of his guards. I know them since they're the one who went to the island with us.
They're using a private plane of course. So the gate was closed as soon as their cars got in.
I got down from the car, "Let me in, please."
"I'm sorry, ma'am. This isn't the right place for you so please back off." This guy was not with us.
"Please, I-i need to go in there!" I was frustrated that I didn't even realize how desperate I look by shouting at him as my tears were roaming down my cheeks.
"We cannot let you do that-"
"Wait, I think we should let her in." One of the guards said cutting the other one off.
"Are you insane? The plane is about to take off, what if she's part of an NBI? Our boss is going to kill us."
"I think he's going to really kill us if we didn't let her in. She's.. she's his lover."
"Yes! I am his lover, now please let me in." I almost begged, hearing that the plane is about to take off literally made me even more frustrated.
The three of them looked at each other first before stepping out of the way. I didn't bother getting in my car as I ran, I ran as fast as I can to stop him.
I was glad to see him just getting down from his car, I felt relief.. I can still stop him.
"Ran!" I called his name as I was running towards him.
Ran and Rindou heard me as they both looked at my direction, I was not visible enough because it was dark and there's only few lights.
But they stopped as I finally got closer. I was panting, trying to catch my breath as I whipped my tears.
"Y/n? What are you doing here?" Rindou asked.
"Ran, please.." I held his hands, and he was confused as he looks at me. "Don't go please, don't leave."
He blinked multiple times, but it hurt me when he removed my grip. "Y/n, go home."
I was speechless, he turned his back at me as he started to get on the plane.. Rindou was already inside as Ran was still approaching the door.
"Ran, please! Don't do this to me.. I beg you, please." I cried even harder when he's not even stopping, not even looking at me.
I felt like I don't exist, "I-I love you!" I shouted, but the plane door closed as soon as I said that.
And as I was about to climb up there, some staffs started to remove the stairs as the plane was ready to take off.
I was desperate enough to stay here while it's already clear for me that he doesn't wanna stay. I don't know what happened to me that I just stood here as I watch the plane move.
He's gone now..
"Ran, I love you too."
