Ray's P. O. V I woke up with a start. My eyes scanned the room and bed, and I noticed Vera wasn't in it. Still half asleep, I plopped out from the bed to check if she was in the bathroom. Not there. I yawned, stretching and rubbing my neck as well. I needed to find her... Need to know if she is safe.I walked out of the room into the hallway, glancing around for her. Eventually, I found her and she was at the hotel's balcony, staring out into the gloomy sky. With her hands wrapped around herself and the night's hair gently blowing her hair, she looked completely beautiful. I froze a bit and just stayed there, staring at her.
Until I saw a red light flashing around. I revved back to life. That's strange, I wondered. What would a tiny red light be coming from? I didn't see any source. Vera was still completely oblivious to the things that were going on around her. Acting out o

Vera's P. O. V (Two weeks later) I worked mindlessly for a while, my thoughts going in no particular direction. Ever since my verbal beat down two weeks ago, Ray never came back. I wouldn't say I missed him, but he was the only one who persisted while others left, and that left its mark. I hardly ever went out and madam Deborah had to do all the shopping for fear that someone would creep up behind me and finally put that bullet in my head. I just wished I'd stop living my life in this constant fear. Ava Morgan. That was the name the old man in the company we visited had called me. Was that my real name? I would I know, I can't remember anything. But I couldn't stop thinking about it. What happened to her? Why did I look like her? I dried the last of my plates and rinsed my hands, cleaning it with a towel before leaving for the living room upstairs where an old computer was kept. A little rese

Ray's P. O. V My heart skipped a beat when I felt Vera's lip's on mine. Honestly, I wasn't expecting it but I couldn't deny the rush of excitement that coursed through me after that kiss, I almost touched my lips. " You smiled." I said, smiling as well. " You look Pretty.... No beautiful when you smile. Very beautiful." I said and her cheeks turned into a bright shade of pink. "Thanks." She said quietly, brushing her hair off her face, then wore a worried look. " What's wrong?" I asked, moving closer to her. " I don't k

Ray's P. O. V I woke up moments ago but was reluctant to leave Vera's side, who was still sleeping quietly. My thoughts went to last night, and I smiled to myself. Who could have thought that would happen? Not even me. A part of Vera's hair had covered her face and I carefully put them in place, my hands brushing her skin in the process. She stirred and her lashes fluttered. I stopped. I should wake her up, but I didn't want to. Half an hour later, Vera opened her eyes. Her gaze was unfocused for a while but soon it settled on me and, a light smile on her lips. " Good morning," I whispered. She nodded and lifted herself, not self-conscious and I liked it. " Good morning... how was your night?" She asked and I grinned. " Beautiful... Just like you." I muttered while twirling my hands in her hair. She pursed her lips together and looked in the direction of the bathroom.

Vera's P. O. V I slowly regain consciousness and I discover I'm in a moving car, sandwiched between two hefty men. My heart's pounding, but there's nothing I can do... I can't even scream, the roads are deserted, and am pretty sure this car is soundproofed. Very carefully, I roam my hands between my body and discover that the recorder is still with me. That's a good thing, at least for now. All I have to do now is to wait and see where I'll be taken to... And what lies in store for me there too. Whatever it is, I'm sure it's not good.... Ray's P. O. V Banging the door repeatedly, I yelled for help but no one came to open it. it's like they didn't even hear the racket have been making for such a long time. Frustrated, I kicked on the study table so hard it turns over and then sit on the floor, groaning out in pain. I'm sweating profusely. Right now, I need a miracle.

Vera's P. O. V "How could you?..." I muttered, my lips quivering. He snickered. " Oh... I could I not? I saw a chance, and I took it." He answered. " An entire family is dead because of it!! You ruined an entire family because of your greed!" " Now, don't say it like that. You know, I'm surprised you survived the ordeal. You should have just died like the rest. But since you did, it looks like I'm going to have to end you myself." He said and stood up, heading out. I was still crying. " You know you won't get away with this, right?" " Looks like I already did. I'll have to thank Ray for making it easier for me to find you before you caused any more harm." He answered, turning his head. " Ray...." I trailed off, then my voice came back stronger. " You're going to regret this... Am positive about that." " I'd like to see you try... From the grave." He

Ray's P. O. V I was stunned. I'm still stunned. All of it felt like imagination to me. Vera didn't just slip out of my hands, did she? I blinked rapidly and looked at my hands; she wasn't there. Then I heard a thud down below. Someone had fallen into the river below. It wasn't my Vera... It wasn't Vera; it wasn't... "VERA!!!" I yelled subconsciously. A hand pulled me back from the edge of the bridge but I trudged forward and fell on my knees. " Vera...." I mouthed, gasping and choking on my tears. The pain was overwhelming, threatening to swallow me whole. Sirens sounded from a distance but I was too distraught to listen. Hurriedly cleaning my tears, I looked below me and saw the voice recorder I had given Vera earlier. It must've fallen from her when she got out of the bridge. I picked it up and played it. My dad's voice streamed out. Hearing him admit to all of his past misdeeds brought even more te

HATE ME Chapter 1
Vera. I'm sinking. I know I am. I'm filling up with water and it's just a matter of time before my life slips out of me. I'm glad I'll finally be able to say goodbye to this cruel world. Then suddenly, I feel a pair of hands grab me, pulling me onto the surface. The cold air hits my face, but I don't want to open my eyes. I feel myself being pulled along, but I don't react. I should probably breathe, but my brain is too mushy to comprehend anything. So I shut down, slipping further into unconsciousness, hoping that this time, I die.... Coughing as I wake up, water coming out of my nose and mouth. Forcing my eyes open, I see two people in front of me, gazing down at me. My eyesight clears and I notice they're dressed in black. I cough a bit, trying to sit up. " Where am I?" I ask, but they look at each other. " Hello beautiful..." the guy says, his lips curled up. " What's your name?"

Ray.I stared at the figure before me, too shocked to speak. Surely, my mind must be playing tricks on me, because this looks too real to be true. Isn't Vera dead? The figure stared at me, moving closer. I resisted the urge to take a step back. She pulled her hoodie off, taking in a deep breath." Didn't think we'd meet this way..." She muttered rather dryly, her lips twitching. I took a step forward." Is this really you?" I asked, disbelief still evident in my voice. She nodded. " Am I really speaking to you?" I asked again. She nodded again. I scoffed, still not being able to wrap my head around it." You're not dead?" " No."" How can it be!? How's it possible? I thought you were dead!" I muttered." Well, I'm not." " If you're not dead, why didn't you show yourself years ago!!" I yelled, unable to keep still anymore." Now's not the time to explain. I came for another reason." She replied, her voice still painfully calm. I took in

Vera." Are you really going to kill him?" I asked Jeff moments later Commander Snake had left the room." If Commander Snake says we should do it, then we do it." He replies, not looking at me. The ache in my heart gets worse." What if..." I began, stopping myself. Taking a deep breath, I started again. " What if he didn't rat out on us? Won't we be taking an inncoents life?" Jeff looked at me then. " An inncoents life? He saw Ava. Didn't you see that? Why won't he rat out on us?!" I pursed my lips, looking at everywhere but him. Jeff walked closer, stopping inches in front of me. " By the way Ava, why did you freeze up the way you did? You know him somewhere?" He asked and flinched a bit, placing my hands on my throat. It was at the tip of my tongue to lie, but I knew I would never get away with it if I did." Yes... I do." I whispered." More the reason he should be dead." Jeff replied without a moments hesitation. Then turned, walking away.

(Few days later)Vera.Standing beside Commander Snake, I tried to pay attention to what he was saying as I kept getting distracted. There was a new mission on ground and just like the others, it was all high profile. Unlike the others where would meet the victim in his home or hotel, this one was going to take place in a party so we need to be extra careful Commander Snake gave a list of instructions and things we should watch out for and once he was done, dismissed us. From the corner of my eyes, I watched as Jeff and Kira walk away, chuckling at something one of them said. Lately, Jeff's been hanging out with Kira. Not that I'm jealous but it has gotten to a point where I'm beginning to think they're doing it on purpose because Jeff ignores me whenever I try to talk to him. Normally, I would leave him alone but today I couldn't, I really need to talk to him.Walking up towards them and tapped Jeff lightly on the shoulder. He stopped but didn't turn, only swiveled h

Vera. " What are you doing?!" I asked, my heart pounding. staggering away from him, I tried it steady my nerves. He had a shocked look on at first but quickly sobered up. " What does it look like I'm doing? Kissing you." He leaned in again but this time I pushed him away, standing on my feet. " I don't why you keep forcing this Jeff. I told you I'm not ready." The shock on his face melted to reveal a hidden anger. " It's been 5 years!" He shot back. " I'm sorry, I just can't do it. I can't." I replied, avoiding his gaze. I didn't realize how close he was until I looked up. " Are you seeing someone else?" He asked calmly, but I couldn't help but shudder at the tone of his voice. "N-no of course not!" I replied, shaking my head. He held me still and tried to kiss me again. I struggled this time around, eage

Vera.Waking up a few moments later, my eyes travelled to the window next to me. It was still dark. Very slowly a smile begins to stretch my lips. I'll be seeing my daughter again. I jumped out of the bed, hurrying towards the bathroom. I need to get ready! I hurried through my morning routine, coming out of the bathroom moments later. I immediately picked out an outfit that would hide me. Brushing out my hair and applying a bit of make-up, I was ready. I picked up my bag and car keys, stepping out of my room.Although it was still dawn, Jeff was already out working on his laptop. I greeted him, about to leave when he called me back." We should go out after this." He said, sparing me a glance. I stopped, turning." What?" I asked. He looked up at me." When you come back from your daughter. We should go out." " Oh... Okay. Sure." I nodded and stepped out. Walking towards the garage, I sought out my car and stepped in, turning it on and driving o

5 years later.Ray walked into ma'am Deborah restaurant, glancing around so he could look for her. Ma'am Deborah was the first to see him however. " Raymond!" She called out, walking towards him. Ray stopped,a small grin breaking out. Once ma'am Deborah was in front of him, she pulled him into a hug. Ray stiffened at first but soon relaxed, tightening his hands around her. Eventually she pulled away." It's been so long! Where have you been!?" She asked, holding his hands. He chuckled, then settled into a soft sigh." Away. Anywhere that was far away from here." He replied sincerely. Ma'am Deborah took a proper look at him. Although he still looked the same, he was no longer the young, charming Ray she first met. She had to blame time and grief for ageing him so quickly. A few inches taller, a deep set eyes that sparkled less, and a very evident stubble. She could detect some faint frown lines and her heart broke a little inside. She shook it aside and smiled wa

" I found this child in my doorstep when I woke up last night. What am I supposed to do with it?" Ma'am Deborah asked the police officer, who was busy scribbling something into his note. " Did you now...." He muttered, uninterested. Glancing at her, he folded his hands, pressing his lips together. "Well... I don't know ma'am. You're going to have to take it to the hospital." He announced. " I already did that. I had the baby tested and they say she's in perfect health condition. What I don't understand is why anyone would want to live a child on my doorstep." The police then shifted his gaze towards the baby, who was already twitching in ma'am Deborah arms. A cursory look and he sighed. " She's still really young. How old?" " Probably a few weeks." Ma'am Deborah replied, rocking her. " According to the doctor." " Well, you can take care of
HATE ME Chapter 10
Vera. I finally went back to the pack. And as expected, they were excited to see me. Or should I say... Jeff was happy to see me. Commander Snake still had that indifferent look on although I caught a hint of approval. Kira looked like she was going to explode, her eyes blazing and ears red. I paid no attention to her. " Vera!" Jeff said as he rushed to hug me. I stiffened, unfamiliar with the warmth. " For a second there, I thought you wouldn't return." He muttered against my ears. " Hey... " I began as we disengaged. " I said I'll be back, and here I am. Although I'll have to admit, I didn't want to be back." He nodded, his lips still curled up. I grimaced, looking around. The base looked different now... Sophisticated. You wouldn't even know this place is a home for highly trained robbers. " Wow... This place looks amazing. How did you get all the money to afford all of this?" I ask offh

( A few months later) Chapter 9 Biting my lips so as to suppress a groan, I leaned heavily on the broomstick, breathing heavily. My stomach is so huge now and the added weight really isn't helping matters. Not to mention how uncomfortable have been feeling. When I finally managed to afford an hospitals visit, I was told I would be due in a few days. I've been dreading and expecting the day. I continued working even as the discomfort tripled. My boss saw me and probably out of pity, told me to take a break. I muttered my thanks and went to look for a quiet place to seat and rest my head. I was already drifting off when my phone buzzed, waking me up. I picked it up to check who the caller was. No other than Jeff. Breathing out, I picked it up. " Hey...." I muttered, my voice sounding scratchy. I ran a hand through my
