CHAPTER 32( Chapter 30)

"I'm sorry, I don't want to hurt you. "

"I do not want to hurt you in any way. "

"But Justin, I won't be able to love you like you do me."

"I'm sorry…."

"Hey….. you know I don't like to see tears in your eyes ."

"You didn't do anything wrong."

"You can never do anything wrong in my sight. "

"See how far we have gotten in a few months "

James, unlike other men, was intentional and plain With me about his feelings. He never got anything from me. How he felt about the situation, how I made him feel, or any problems.was waa open to Me all the time and even today, he was.

" We have gotten this far in just a few months, you were more than "another woman" to me. "

"Isabelle……

"Any man would be lucky to have you."

"I'm so glad I got the chance to spend time with you."

"I love you and no one else can take that away ."

    "I told you not to mess it up…. .""You chose to do otherwise.""It's going to cost you.""I warned you, Isabelle….."How would you like to see their tiny chopped-up bodies in a sack?""Or better, wouldn't you like to see them following in your footsteps?"Too bad the poor innocent children will have to pay for their mother and father's stupid costly mistake. Wonderful isn't it Isabelle? My mouth suddenly became too heavy to speak. Amelia and Aiden went to school. How did they end up with Dean? My greatest fear came through. Dean had my life; Aiden and Amelia hostage. For the second time in one week. I knew Dean too well. He was going to give it all up just like that. He wanted to make me pay for the costly mistake I made. "You were smart, beautiful, and Daring but now you are just weak and stupid. " A weak love bird ha "Your stupidity is going to cost you.""You might just be able to have them again but I doubt it .""You know where to find me."I was unable to utter a

    All this while, I didn't know James and Justin trailed me. They drove in James's car. How quickly they resolved their issues. They were going to create another problem for me I thought. I was at the point of death yet the only thing that crossed my mind was Justin and James making the issue worse. Dean inflicted pain on me physically and emotionally but I cared less about myself. My decision still stood. If he wanted me as a slave in exchange for my Children's safety then I didn't care. Dean chuckled and lifted his gun away from my head. Justin and James were behind us.James was holding a pistol and pointing it directly at Dean. He always had one in his car. A few months ago, James and I were about to leave for a date when I found the gun laying harmless inside of his armrest. I asked him curiosity what he was doing with a gun and he told me it was a licensed gun and he had gotten one for security purposes. His reasons for having a gun were unclear to me but he explained

    The tingling sound of the bullet rang through my ears. It felt like I was in a time loop. With Justin constantly calling my name. His voice was faint and his touch was cold. My blurry eyes, my cold feet, and my blood that ran cold in my veins. A fell to the ground With a teardrop from the side of my face. "Ja ... .James" I whispered softly as my tears dropped on his lips. Dean had fired a shot at Me, yes, but I wasn't hurt. James took my place. He made himself my shield. He always made himself my shield and even today, he did the same without thinking twice. James was bleeding profusely from his abdomen. Dean lay there with a smile of satisfaction on his face. He wanted to kill me but he couldn't, yet he was happy that someone was going to die at his hands and that was James. He was in a lot of pain and his time slowly passed. He too was losing a lot of blood. James slowly gasped for breath On the floor. He placed his hands carefully on the pierced area but nothing could

    It's been 24 hours since James's death. Aiden and Amelia were fast asleep. They didn't bother to ask about James. Yes, they were little and naive but something about everything just added up and made them less inquisitive about the obvious. Justin decided to stay and grieve with me. The least he could do was pay his last respect by honoring the dead. They didn't get along well but Justin still was human with feelings. I was numb and dumb for hours. I barely spoke a word to anyone. All I did was sit by my bed, grieve, and Blame myself for James's death. I curled myself up with my head buried in between my legs by my bed. I was cold. My legs were shivering and my Palms were Freezing. The cool winter breeze that came in through the opened window ran down my spine and gave me goosebumps all over. I enjoyed the discomfort and the freezing weather. My pain and discomfort were nothing compared to what James had felt that afternoon. I was struggling to adapt to the weather when I

    "What have you decided, pretty?""Your offer Is interesting but I'll pass."Wow…. She said "What?""I mean for a woman like you, you sure make innocent decisions. ""It's really hard to find self-disciplined women like yourself," she added and took another shot to her mouth. "I own this bar and never have I seen any lady reject my offer." "How do you think I got so many to work for me?""Think about that. '' She chuckled with a smile. I reciprocate the same energy she gave off. We had only spoken about a few things but she somehow was able to lift my mood with her funny rhetorical remarks. "I'm Dire need of an income but I don't think I'd ever be able to do such jobs.""I have two children and I once had a well-paying job.""A seven to nine?" "Yes, seven to nine but it was worth it."'Why did you leave ?""I… hmm…. I "I signaled the bartender again, totally ignoring her curiosity. She noticed my reluctance. "You have two kids ?""Huhum""Twins. A girl and a boy ""I wish

    " You are my Christen. ""My child ""My Christen."She kept on shaking me violently even after slapping me. "Stop it, Mom.""Mom" Mneso yelled at the top of her voice. She pulled her away from me and dragged her to her room. While being pulled away, She still called out the name "Christen" staring at me helplessly. "Come back, my child. ""Come back to me."Mentioned locked her up in her room and came back to me. She kept banging on the door for freedom."I'm sorry… Did she hurt you?""No… I ehn. I'm fine. "" Will she be okay ?" "She will.""I don't know.""Let's just go. " I'm sure she will be fine." She suggested. "I will be back."She again left me and went to her room. What could have happened to her? Why was she going on and on about me being Christian even after I denied it? I knew she was sick yet my curiosity was stabbing my throat. Mneso was taking longer than I expected. The room her mother was locked in was just a few steps away from mine. For a minute, the w

    For a few minutes, Mneso and I stared at each other with heavy mouths. It was all too good to be true. The feelings were overwhelming. I didn't know whether to hug her or stop her. I couldn't differentiate my rights from my wrongs there. My sister and my mother were Back in my life after so long. I yawned for the affectionate touch of Mneso. Her little hands on my mind just like were kids, My mother's soothing words and her tender kisses on my Forehead I yearned for. I never would have imagined a day like that was coming. A day when I would be able to look my sister again in the eye. I never believed it. I was getting excited and impatient to run home and tell my mother I was her Christen. I was her lost child when I remembered the state of her health. The excitement I felt instantly vanished into thin air. I was the reason for her condition. If I hadn't left home that morning then maybe she wouldn't have been in that situation. Over the weeks, I got so used to blamin

    I stretched my hands to give him the file and accidentally, my hand hit the cup of tea on his desk.I hurriedly jerked up, and the hot tea spilled on my Hands. My file my Soaked so were all the files on his desk. The hot tea only burnt my hands but the angry look on his face was enough to melt off my Delicate skin. "I.I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."I quickly apologized and started to pull his files away from the table one after the other. My hands were already bruised but I wasn't kind.

" There's gotta be something, some document or record somewhere", I muttered while I kept on searching. " Dring! dring!", my phone rang as I was sorting out some files. " Urrghh! Who is it now?", I murmured as I picked up the phone from the desk. It was Jared. " I wonder what it is this time", I thought and then picked up." You imbecile! You took her, didn't you?", his voice blared out from the phone, making me pull it away from my ear." What are you talking about?", I asked." Don't play dumb with me asshole! 'cause I ain't buying it", he said." Look Jared, I don't have time for this okay? Unlike you, I've got work to do", I said." Oh that's rich! Really rich! coming from a crook like you", he yelled."

Alright man, I ain't gonna argue no more. Let's just do this quickly before we get into any more trouble", he said as he picked up his baseball bat." That's the spirit!", I said and gave him a smack on the shoulder." So what's the plan anyway?", Dave asked."

    *** At the abandoned Amusement park***" No please! Don't kill me!"" Shut up!", I interjected as I knotted my belt around his neck quickly strangling him to death. " Hwweewww", I exhaled out of my mouth as I wiped off the sweat on my forehead with my forearm. " That's all of them", I said as I looked around at the bodies on the ground. I turned around and looked at my car, dented with marks of ricocheted bullets all around. " Geez, that'll need quite a lotta work", I said as I walked towards the door. " Krrrkuh", I heard a gun crackle behind me. " Put your hands where I can see 'em now!", a voice ordered from behind me. " Who are you guys anyway?", I asked the person behind me." That's none of your business. Now put your damn hands up where I can see 'em", he ordered. " Fine", I replied as I raised my hands up." Good, now turn around and get on your knees", he ordered. I turned around and looked him in the eye with a smirk on my face." Get on your knees now!", he ordered. As I

    *** At Justin's House***" She's gonna be alright", the doctor said as he finished injecting her, " Though she'll probably be asleep for about an hour or two", he added." Thanks a lot doctor", Justin said, " but what about her memory? Is there anything we can do about it?", he asked." Apparently, it'll be best if we let the memories return on their own, unless we would be willing to risk shocking her into a stroke or a coma", said the doctor." Exactly when should we expect her memories to return?", Justin asked." Well, it depends on the circumstances around her. Just try to let her be around things and people that she knows really well. It'll help jog her memories", he said, " for now, let's just let her have some sleep", he added." Will do doctor. Thank you for coming", Justin said as he led the doctor out. Meanwhile, I rolled my wheelchair to her bedside." Izzy baby", I said as I rubbed my palm on her cheek, " you're so pretty even when you sleep", I said with a smile. " Aunt

    " Let me out dammit!", I yelled as I banged the door, " I gotta go save Janet", I said now leaning my back against the door as I slowly slid down into a crouched sitting position. " Knock! knock!", someone knocked on the door. " Who is it?", I asked as I hurriedly got up on my feet, " please let me out of here", I pleaded." It's me Justin. I'm coming in", he said as I heard the door unlock. As soon as he opened the door, I tried to make a run for it. Expectedly, I got caught easily." Calm down Izzy, you don't know what you're doing", he said with his hands around my waist. " Unhand me, you perv!", I yelled as I tried to break free from his grip. He let go off me and I took a few steps backward. " Don't you dare lay a finger on me or I'm telling my husband", I said with my index finger pointed at him." Humph!", he sighed, " well I can't really blame you, can I?", he said with a smile as he stared into the distance. I could see the emotions in his eyes. " Anyway", he said as he snap

    " You say she went out when?", the cop asked." I don't really know when, but it was in the morning", I said." What's her name?", he asked." Janet.... Janet Kelly", I answered." And you say she went out with a guy?", he asked." Yeah, her friend, though I think they're secretly dating", I said. He scribbled something down in a book." Any chance you know the name of the young man?", he asked." I can't really remember", I said." Humph", the cop sighed, " Are you sure you even know anything about her other than her name and the fact that she's your sister?", he asked." Frankly speaking, no. She's way too secretive about what goes on with her" , I replied." Alright, I'll draft a report and we'll begin our search in the morning okay?", he said as he arranged the paperwork on his desk." Tomorrow? what if she gets hurt tonight?", I asked." I'm sorry sir, but with the sparse info you've given me, there's nothing we can do till tomorrow morning", he said." Dammit!", I cussed as I ra

    “ Urrghh", I groaned as my eyes opened slightly and I tried to sit up." She's awake sir! she's awake!", I heard some ladies shout, their voices diminishing as they ran out. " What's all the ruckus about?", I thought as I opened my eyes, blinking quite a couple of times to clear up my vision. " Where am I?", I muttered as I looked around, surprised at how beautiful yet familiar the place looked. Then suddenly I remembered what happened on the way to the grocery store. " Oh my god, Janet!", I exclaimed as I hurriedly got off the bed. " Those men must have taken her", I muttered as I walked towards the door. Just as I was about to reach out for the doorknob, the door suddenly swung open. " Oh my god, Isabelle!", he said as he pulled in into his arms. I was about to struggle but his hug felt so warm. " I missed you baby, so so much", he said in a jerky voice as though he was holding himself back from crying. He looked just like the man from my dreams. " I'm sorry, but who are you?",

" Stop calling dammit!", I yelled in frustration as I drove as fast as I could. I tapped on my wireless earbud and picked the call." Calm down Maddie, you can't go alone", Justin said on the phone."
