Alex's POV:
Sure! Why not? He's our Target after all." Zain smirked
I looked at him shock.
The other three unfamiliar guys stood there silent. I know that they would have joined in this beating session too if they knew me in the past.
I got a kick on my stomach which made me fall on the ground.
"Oww!" I winched in pain
I looked into Zain's direction who was just staring at me with cold eyes.
I knew it! I can't ask help from him.
The two were beating me up like hell.
"Stop!" I heard a voice and saw a guy among the other three come towards me
He extended a hand towards me to help me get up
But I felt a pull on my hair from behind which soon ended
I looked behind and saw another one anonf those trio
"You were asked to stop!" He gritted his teeth as he twisted that guy's arm
"Leave him Cole..and you guys! Get the f**k out if here if you don't want us to beat you both up!" The last one yelled
The two guys ran for their life.
"Are you okay?" The guy who came to save me first asked
I nodded my head as a reply
"Justin! Of course he's not! Go and get him bandaged!" The guy named Cole said
While Justin was trying to help me get up, I heard the guy Cole yell at Zain
"Just what the heck do you think you are doing?!"
I was taken to a room by Justin so i couldn't hear anymore of their conversation.
*****
"There all done." Justin said as he smiled
He's so kind even though we just met.
Can't believe he's Zain's friend. They are so different!
"Take some painkillers after you eat." He said
I mumbled a 'thankyou'
"It's fine. By the way, I'm Justin and those guys over there are Cole and Nick.
All of us graduated from the same University." He said
"Alex" I introduced myself
"Nice to meet you Alex. Sorry we were late and you got so many injuries. We really didn't think that's how they will hit you." He said
"No need for explanations. I'm used to it anyway and I obviously know that Zain asked you not to help that's why you all stood there silent." I replied
"Sorry" he mumbled
"It's fine" I said
"You know..Zain is not bad but it's just few things in his family that he's kinda messed up.
He doesn't believe in love or commitments like this. Thanks to how he grew up." He sighed
"What do you mean?" I asked
There's certainly no a way a bully could be a good guy!
"Sorry. I would rather Zain tell you about this himself. It's his life.
I know it's hard for you to bear him but please for once could try to understand him?" He pleaded
"I think I will give it a second chance." I mumbled
"Thanks!" He said and hugged me
Guess that devil actually got friends who care for him after all.
But why is he like this? Was it because of his parents?
