I’ll Take You Away From Here!
“Tobey? Is that you? How?! I thought you had returned to Eastgene!” Deirdre still remembered just how
glum and dejected Tobey was when he left—that happened merely a week ago! She really thought she
would never get to talk to him again.
Tobey looked at her in pity. “Silly girl. How could I possibly abandon you and return to Eastgene on my
own? My departure was a feint. The clue was the words you used. I understood immediately that you
were just saying them because you had no choice, and for that, I’m sorry.
“I was such a reckless idiot! I thought things could be solved by laying things bare, but I underestimated
Brendan’s power! Think about it. This is a guy who has the power to make me lose my job and my
employability through his influence. How easy must it be for him to control you? God. If you didn’t
remind me of that with what you said, I would have put you in so much harm!”
Deirdre shut her eyes tightly and felt a sob building up. She dared not let it out-lest Fionn noticed her
puffy eyes later. “D-Don’t say that, Tobey. I know you o-only did all that because you wanted the best
for me. You would do all kinds of things just for me,” she said, smiling painfully.
“Everything you have, all that you are today, are fruits of your honest, earnest labor. Someone who
belongs to all that is good about the world doesn’t know how bad things can be on the moon’s dark
side.”
Deirdre would have never known how dark it was either if it were not for that fateful incident. She could
have lived her whole life never encountering figures as dangerous and powerful as Brendan.
“He’s too powerful, Tobey. No one can fight him, so… don’t. All I want to know is that you don’t hate me
for what happened, and now that I know, I’m happy. Please, go home. Return to Eastgene and live your
life in peace.”
Tobey shook his head. “Not going to happen,” he declared firmly. “If I knew nothing, I would have no
problem leaving you to suffer by his side, Dee. But this is different. I know now, Dee. I know you’re
being shackled to that demon, and I won’t leave until I pry you away from his hell!”
“Are you… taking me away?” Deirdre’s breath hitched for a moment. Then, raspily, she warned, “Do
you know what that means, Tobey? Your career. Your future. Your mom!”
She let her brewing emotions calm down and closed her eyes. “Listen. I’m grateful as it is to know how
much you care for me, but I can’t be more selfish than that. Please, forget me and live a better life-”
“This ‘better life’ I envisioned has you by my side, Dee!” He suddenly cut her off, his eyes red. He
sounded agitated. “Do you know what my biggest regret is? Not coming home to bring you with me to
Eastgene as soon as I got my first pay. Had I done that… you wouldn’t have ever met Brendan in your
life!”
Deirdre’s eyelashes fluttered. She could not help but chuckle under her breath in self deprecation. How
nice would it be-to have never met Brendan?
“Well, it’s too late now, Tobey. There’s nothing you can do, so go. The last thing I want is to capitalize
on your feelings for me by any means at all. I can’t love anyone again, not after all of this. So, please,
don’t waste your time and effort on me or a relationship that isn’t going to happen.”
Tobey frowned. He seemed to be enraged as his voice turned grave. ‘You really think I’m doing all of
this because I want you to reciprocate my feelings!? Dee! I would do this even if I didn’t love you that
way because you’re my sister and Mrs. McKinnon’s daughter! I’m hardly the only one who’s not okay
with you being stuck to that demon’s side. My mom will never let you either!”
His words shocked Deirdre. It was then that she heard a series of knocks on the door before Fionn’s
concerned voice rang. “Are you okay, Miss McKinnon? You’ve been in there for more than ten
minutes!”
Deirdre’s heart raced. She affected a false tone of calmness and replied,” Uh, I’m having a bit of a
stomach upset! Please wait for me for a bit. I’m going to be out soon enough!”
