“Hmm,” I groaned as I felt someone is carrying me. As I opened my eyes, it was Carlos who is carrying me heading upstairs. “P-put me down asshole.” I said, groaning in so much pain of my body.
“No, not until we get in your room,” he replied.
My body was in pain as the car that I’m riding bumped in a store. I remember Kashia’s condition before I passed out and she needs help. Carlos putted me down here in my bed and my sight wasn’t that clearly. Everything around me is whirling around. I feel like I’m going to lose my consciousness again.
“I’m sorry on what I’d done,” he said and start unbuttoning my clothes.
“W-what are you doing? Get your hands off me,” I tried to yell but I only made a whisper.
“You need to get clean and change your clothes.” He was still continuing what he is doing. “Don’t worry I won’t do anything except watching you naked.” He said and his tone was creepy as hell! “About your friend, don’t worry I called the ambulance to take care of her.”
“G-get the hell away from me,” I whispered in pain.
“Shh.” He wears off my blouse and next is my jeans. Now, I’m only wearing my brazier and underwear. “Look at you, Christmas. You are so perfect and this wounds in your skin is annoying. Let me cure you.”
“S-stay away from me. Stay away—” I pass out again.
I don’t have any idea what exactly happen when I lost my consciousness. The next thing I knew, I just woke up when the light of the sun penetrated at me that coming from my window. I was wearing my night clothes and he really treated my wounds but it won’t change the fact that I hate him so much.
“How are you and Christmas here yesterday?”
My forehead knotted as I heard mom’s voice downstairs. She is back! I forcedly to stood up myself and walk through the door. I want to run but my body doesn’t cooperate.
“We’re just fine here yesterday but there something happened.”
Hearing Carlos downstairs made me stop moving. What is he going to tell to mom?
“What happened?” mom asked him.
“Christmas fell off in the staircase last night and she really got injured herself.”
My mouth formed literally into ‘O’ like what the hell did he say? I fell off in the staircase? Damn him! He is also a liar!
“Oh my gosh! Is she okay now? I want to see her.”
“She is okay now. I already treated her, just let your daughter to rest.”
In annoyance, I headed back in my room and lock the door. I just stay the whole time here inside and never step outside. I didn’t eat even I am hungry and mom tried to call me to join them in the dining but I ignored it, pretending that I’m still resting. It’s already dark and the night wind touching my skin was unfriendly. It seems my whole life will be going tragic because of the man in the next room. In thinking too much and hunger, I haven’t notice myself that I fall asleep.
Blag!
I hastily opened my eyes as I heard something fell off. I slowly get off in my bed and my heart can’t stop thrashing in nervous. I start walking through the door, to check what I just heard. As I go out, the door of my mom’s room was slightly open.
“Ch-ristmas.”
My heart stopped for a second as I heard mom’s voice seem suffering. My feet brought me at the staircase and my eyes widened as I realize that mom is the one that I heard fell off. She is in downstairs and there is blood with her.
“Mom!” I cryingly shouted as I run downstairs, placing her at my lap. “W-what happened?” I asked and the blood on her head was in my bare hands.
“I-I-I—”
“What is it, Mom? Tell me!”
“I-I-I—” Instead of answering my question, she gave me a bitterly smile before she took her last breath.
“Mom!” I shouted with tears hugging her lifeless in my arms.
Present…
We are now at his car heading back to the house. No one came at my mom’s burial and I’m just the only one who cried for her. This man with me never shed a tear and seems the situation is favorable at him. This isn’t good. He should go by now because he has nothing to do in the house because my mom—my mom was already gone.
“What do you want to eat tonight, Christmas?” he asked while focusing in driving.
“Anything.”
“Anything? Okay, I will prepare myself tonight. Hahaha.”
My jaw clenched in annoyance. I know this asshole is trying to score with me. He even force to come inside my room twice! “I’m vegetarian.” I said, grinding my teeth.
“Then, I’m the only one who will eat,” he said, grinning at me.
“If you will make it alive here.” Without any hesitation, I took the steering wheel and start turning it right to left repeatedly. At this moment, we are now here in the middle of the roadway.
“What the hell are you doing? You are going to kill us, Christmas!” he yelled, trying to take my hands off in the steering wheel.
“No. You’re just the one who gonna die here!” I opened the door to my side and quickly jump out of the car.
[Carlos]
“No. You’re just the one who gonna die here!” Christmas shouted and my eyes widened as she jumped out in the car.
“Christmas!” I called her and as I look back in front of the road, I quickly jump out in the car as well before the truck could kill me. “Argh!” I groaned as I rolled in the roadway and I watched my car hit by the big truck. Damn!

[Christmas] I knew it! The thing happened to us remained only that night. Nothing more and nothing less. He left a payment for cleaning his clothes before he left at my apartment. It's been one week but I'm still hoping that he will step inside here in the shop. For what? To make clean of his clothes again or to talk about what happened to us?Smash!“Christmas!” I came back to my senses when Aunte Lorie smashed the counter that I supposedly to clean. I could see her fury eyes nearly because her face is just in front of me. I can even see her large pores.

I hope it is not."Is there something troubling you, Christmas?" Duke asked in his forehead knotted."Can I go in the comfort room?" I asked permission instead of answering his question.He chuckled. "Of course, you can just don't make me wait too long."I didn't reply on him and immediately walk towards the comfort room. I face myself in the mirror and close my eyes for a second, thinking what I should do if it's that we are going to talk about."I think I can ditch and leave him here?" I said to myself in the mirror

[Christmas]It is 2:00 a.m. now and I'm still awake. My eyes are darted the whole time in the pregnancy test that I bought while I'm heading here at my apartment.

I get off my bed and head to the bathroom to use the pregnancy test to get rid of these thoughts of me.After a minute that I spent inside the bathroom, I am with the result now inside my hand.
