UNKNOWN POV The first time I saw Amanda was about seven years ago, she was still so young. Her face lit up whenever she talked about anything. She had that beautiful innocent face; you know the dimples and all with minimal make up on. She was in her internship in the same company that I had been working for by then. I did not have the courage to talk to her because she was so confident, and she looked like she could not even go for a guy like me. By the time I had mastered the courage to ask her out, Tristan had already asked her out. I blamed him for that because he knew I liked her from the start, but he liked her too.

In the next few years of their lives, I saw them happy, and they were so cheesy for my taste. Tristan knew all of this, but he still treated her badly, he still cheated and was so abusive to her after sh

Unknown POVI have been observing the for more than three months now but I never acted . However today , I acted . I always thought with all their protectiveness and fame , my plan would have never succeeded.My plan at first was just to scare them but now I know they are terrified. The first thing I did was divert their attention towards something else , Tristan. I have known for a while that he is alive . According to how he was living I'd like to say he did not want to be found.When Tristan was presumed 'dead' I knew that was too hard to believe because the one I knew could not have just died that way . Two years later I came to find out that he is now living in South Africa and he was now a school teacher. That's so not like him, he had a girlfriend and an eight months old daughter. Bringing him back was so hard but I had to blackmail him so that he came. I had to use his daughter as a leverage for him to help me I guess his near death experience really changes him because the
