Internet has been mean lately and it won't let me do anything, so I apologize for the late update, I truly hope you enjoy this chapter because it's now 6 something AM and I just finished writing it.

On another note, Fix me has been ranked #1 in spiritual for over a week now, since 14/7 to be more precise. Thank you guys for that!

| Adam's POV |

What have I done?

Can you break an already broken girl?

What did I do?

I didn't mean for any of this to happen. My plan went out of control. Listening to Layla voice her thoughts is breaking my heart.

"You win. Just s-stop... don't hurt me anymore—" she whispers. "I-I c-can't take it anymore. You win, you have damaged what's left of my already unfixable heart." She stutters and finally lets down a tear.

She's strong... So strong. The entire time she has been keeping in her tears, only fury and pain showing in her eyes.

What have you done Adam?

I didn't win. I didn't win anything. This isn't a game to me, hurting her is not brining pleasure to my life only sorrow but it seems like I can't stop brining pain into her life.

It hurt me so much to hear her say that I had shattered what's left of her already unfixable heart.

I didn't aim for this. None of what happened inside the restaurant was something I had planned. All I wanted to do was protect her... Protect her by keeping her far away from me. But instead of driving her away from me, I only brought pain to her heart in the worst way possible.

I've been getting threats too... letters, blurred videos, text messages, things sent to my office... All threatening me and warning me that if I don't leave Layla alone, something bad would happen.

I didn't want to believe them at first. But then the threats became even more serious, including Melak's name in them. I was blinded with fury and I didn't think straight. I took the easiest way and out and tried  to make her hate me. I just didn't think I'd do it in that particular way.

I only invited Jacob to this "date", planning to ignore her and later on tell her that ill be traveling to some country for some work. Only the thing is, as we walked in, Bethany caught us walking in and clung to me like second skin. I tried to get her off of me but she insisted on inviting herself to dinner with us and before I knew it she had plopped herself down beside me and then Layla was walking in.

Bethany was an old college mate of mine. She has always been um.. that clingy. She attached herself to every guy on campus, usually those with money, but with me it only got worse since I got rich after college and not during college. She was a daughter to some professor, not even a student at med school. She came to show off her outfits and body everyday. All the guys were all over her, and she over them... Except for me. I wasn't all over her, I didn't even like her, let alone tolerate her. I was on my own, I was closed off and in my own world... Only worried about becoming a doctor and achieving the dream.

Now meeting her, a few years later, she clung to me like there was no tomorrow. It was humiliating, I, one of the most known doctors in this state, seen with a girl dressed like a hooker in a very respectful place was not something you wanted plastered on the daily paper.
