Nathan couldn't believe his ears. He stared at her departing figure before realizing that if she really didn't want to be found, it's going to be a long while before they meet again.

He refused to believe this is happening. How could he be so foolish and let her words got to him to the extent that she has moved so far away before he realized he should have stop her from leaving.

While those thoughts were running in his head, he was already chasing after her bike on foot and calling her name.

Aroma saw him running after her through the mirror, her tears falling uncontrollably, as she increased her speed. He actually forgot dignity, forgot who he is in the organization and was actually running after her.

She was supposed to feel touched and be happy, but NO! it's over! she didn't want to have anything to do with him anymore.

Seeing her out of sight, with just the light of her motorbike slightly visible from afar, but was also fading into the distance, Nathan crashed down on his knees and held his head with both hands.

He had no idea when he started crying, but his tears were coming nonstop. He kept whispering her name, while looking till the light faded and she's finally gone.

He felt like his whole world had just shattered into a million pieces. His heart tightened, while Aroma's words kept resounding in his ears. 'I stopped loving you!'

The whole place was silent, as everyone respectively stay out of the vicinity. He remained at the spot for more than an hour, just staring at the distance, while memories of their past flooded in.

Even if they weren't into the man woman relationship, they've been together too long that it will be hard to let her go,  but now that feelings is involved, it's so hard for him to accept that this is really happening.

He felt so awful, because he couldn't detect any wrong from his side. He didn't do anything. He actually do things that are against his way because of her, yet he felt like the villain right now.

He would have crazily asked for Austin and his entire place to be eradicated for hurting his brother, but for once, he actually calm and even gave her the chance to persuade him.

The dude has gone overboard and he believed Aroma should have known that already. He wasn't at fault right? He did his best right?

Even if he didn't do anything, Ethan will never let him live, not after all he did to Diana. He knew how stubborn Ethan can be when his mind is set on something. He will rather die, than live under same sky as Austin.

Which means one of them must die anyway, and there's no way that person is going to be his brother, not while he's still breathing.

He knew Aroma must be hurt, but he's willing to fill up those holes for her. They can be together, while he just have to control the bases from where they go.

There are elders and leading figure in each organization. He decided to receive their complains and give his order through the phone alone and be with her.

During those time, the next nominees for his position will be carrying out the same tests he went through and the best will succeed him.
