Splash!! Splash!! The sounds of water came on his body. His eyelids fluttered and his lips began to quiver as he felt cold run through his bare chest. He tried to open his eyes but the pain he felt in his head was so strong and he let out a groan. The waters splashed on his face and his eyes opened wide. He began to pant and his heart palpitated with fear as he looked at the able-bodied men standing in front of him. They were all dressed in black outfits and their eyes were burning like fiery coal. They were three in number and he wondered what he was doing in their midst. He couldn't feel his feet on his floor. He tried to wriggle his body and that was when he felt his two hands tied on a rope which was hung on the ceiling of the room. His heart flinched as he looked around the room at once. He could see a scared little boy lying on the cemented floor on one side of the room and then his memory took a flash of what had happened the other night. The only thing he could recall was
"Run!! Eden Run!!" He heard her call. "Grandma!!" He screamed as he saw the man pull the trigger. He woke up suddenly and he began to pant. The sound from his pants could be heard all over the room. He felt perspiration all over his body as he opened his eyes and looked around the room. The whole room was dim and the only light he saw was the sunlight which had settled on the wooden window in the room. He tried to move his body but the pain was too much to bear. His whole body ached and he could barely lift a limb. He thought he had died, not until he dreamt about the scenes of his grandma's death did he wake up. He turned his head slowly and saw the little boy resting with his back against the wall. He seems to be fast asleep. It was evening already and the sun was setting. He began to wonder what Galina's plans for him were. He heard the door creaking, followed by footsteps. He heard the voices of men speaking and he knew they had come for him. He saw one of them shutting t
She smacked her lips sinisterly as she gazed at his face which wore a smirk. She rubbed her palm on his smooth chest and wetted his neck with kisses. He shut his eyes as she climbed on his legs and took off her nightie slowly. She was about to plant a kiss on his lips when he placed both arms on her shoulders to stop her. "Wait.." He muttered "What!!" She barked with her hair falling on both sides of her face "The lights," He said "Oh," She sighed. She climbed away from his body and laid on the bed sexily. "Switch them off if you want," She said to him. He stood up and went to locate the switch. He switched off the lights leaving only the red fancy bulb. "Music," He said and she groaned impatiently. She reached for the remote control beside the bed and turned on the music. He walked to the bed where she was lying fully unclad and she motioned for him to take off his clothes. He took off his trousers slowly and climbed into the bed. "I want it to be magical and more
He opened the door slowly and scanned his eyes carefully on both sides of the passage. He could still see the men which were numbering up to five moving to and fro at the passage. He had no idea how many men were in the building. He had no idea of any escape route he could take. He took a deep breath as he saw the men from a distance. They seem not to have taken notice of him as the lights at the passage were a bit dim. He could hear noises coming from down the stairs. He looked at the staircase which was a little distance away from the room. Should he attack the men down the stairs? Or go for Arturo first? He reasoned. If he should attack the men down the stairs first, then the men upstairs will surely get Arturo out of the building without his notice. Definitely, he needed to attack the men over here first, he thought as he stepped into the passage. He fired directly at the men who were standing in the passage. The men were caught unaware and they all began to run Helterskelter as
He was awoken by the rustling sounds made by the bush accompanied by voices which seemed to be a little bit far away. He looked around the bush and realized he had fallen asleep while resting under the tree with Arturo who was still fast asleep on his shoulder. It was almost Dawn and he could see the whole place a bit clearly. He still felt the pain from the gunshot wound he had sustained on his left arm. He groaned as he looked at Arturo who was sleeping exhaustively with only his white singlet on. The voices came closer and closer and he woke up Arturo hastily. "Wake up, we need to move" He said to the little boy who was still wiping his eyes with his palm. "We need to move!" He ordered as he shook the boy vehemently. "I'm.. I'm.. so tired" Arturo cried with his innocent brown eyes staring at him "Can't you hear the voices? They're coming for us!" Eden said to him as he stood up from the ground "I.. I can't hear voices" Arturo said as he looked around the whole place in sur
Within the twinkle of an eye, everywhere was thrown into a chaos as gunshots filled the air followed by screams from the people who were all running in a headlong manner in order to get to safety. Goods were thrown away and trampled on as the men engaged in a hot chase. They chased after Eden and Arturo who had mixed with the crowd who were all running away. Eden stopped as he got to a passageway which was void of people. He pushed Arturo behind him and brought out his gun. Just then, he saw the men stop in front of the passage and two of the men turned towards his direction. Before they could shoot, he fired his shots at them and they ducked immediately. As soon as he saw them ducked, he grabbed Arturo and began to run again. He ran out of the passage and found himself in an open space where a few pickup trucks were parked. He could see some trucks filled with hay driving out from the spot. He quickly ran towards a truck and threw Arturo into the truck which was moving slowly. He
They were all awestruck as they watched Eden walking towards them with the group of men who were cheering behind him. A little boy could also be seen walking beside him and Gabriel couldn't get his eyes off the boy. Alves turned to Ray who was now looking dumbfounded as he watched Eden walking with the men. "Now that's the special thing about him. He always returns" Alves said with a smirk on his face. Ray held the boiling anger within him as Alves spoke those words to him. He gritted his teeth and made a bump fist but he couldn't do anything. Ella ran to meet Eden as he stopped in front of them. She placed a palm on his cheek and touched his body. "No.. I can't believe this," She cried in disbelief "I came back" he muttered as he saw the emotions written all over her face. "Boss, your boy is back. We saw him at the entrance of the slum and we decided to walk him here" One of the men said to Gabriel. "You should be happy, boss" another one added. "Eden!!" Ella screamed as s
PRESENT He was awoken by a knock on the door that morning. He yawned and stretched tiredly as he sat on the bed. "Who's there?" He asked as he looked at the door "Open up" A female voice sounded from the outside. "Juliet" He muttered as he took the duvet off his unclad body. He grabbed a white T-shirt on the edge of the bed and wore it under the black boxers he was wearing. As he opened the door, he saw Tracy and Juliet who were both giggling and gossiping "My cutie cutie" Tracy teased as she rubbed his chin He smiled and gave her a slight hug while Juliet walked into the room. They were both casually dressed that morning in black jeans and blue t-shirts. "To what do I owe this visit from my beautiful sisters?" He asked as he walked into the room and shut the door. Juliet smiled as she sat on the bed and crossed her legs stylishly. "Oh, how unkempt your room looks. You sure need a lady to be keeping it clean for you" Tracy said as she arranged the pillows on the bed.
