★★BELLA★★
I looked at his wide shoulder, his ripped army colored sweater. Wait... Is that 'en' on his shoulder? Does he have a tattoo?
'Bella, you must be stupid, a lot of words end with 'en'.
I turn to the bed and sleep.
Morning time.
I opened my eyes "ahh...! You startled me" I screamed. He squatted, staring at me.
"Well, is this how long you sleep? You must be really lazy, I bet you're jobless" he said as he walked to the window. The day was so bright,the ray entered directly into my eyes.
"Thank you for your hospitality, I'll be going now" I say. I got up, wrapped my hair into a bun.
"You have to answer my questions. Number one, why were you on the streets last night?"
&nb
★★BELLA★★ I can't speak, I did wrong, I disobeyed... But how can he aim so perfectly? "Why did you come in here?" He asked in a different tone. "I didn't mean to, I came to deliver you meal, I called you but you- you didn't answer..." He wiped his face and smiled like a psycho in his second personality "Oh..." He raised the gun up. "Don't be scared, this is fake. It's a toy".I don't buy that. Why would he be with a toy gun? He stretched his hand for the food. I gave It to him. As I walked out, I pulled the knife from the door and dropped it on the shelf. Slowly withdrew my hand to leave... "What is your name?" He asked calmly "Bella. My name is Bella." I feel like crying for no reason.
★★JAYDEN★★ I go through the transfer paper, Wayne will be so shocked. Tomorrow, I'll go to back, I have some works to attend to. I start to think of Bella, I feel pity for her, just like me, she's alone in this world, but unlike me, she is a simple and nice little sport. I let her stay here because of pity. Play the record of her family: "Dad, dad sign, stop dragging the pen with Mom!" This was her sister's voice. "No, no, Lisa, you have used me all these years, I won't sign my wealth to you, what about my... What about my other daughter...???" "Edward, we have to secure our childrens future first, sign..." "Sign This Eddy! Don't be stubborn" they were struggling, she hit his head with something. I don't know how he died but I heard his daughter screaming. This naïve girl never ask
★★JAYDEN★★ I drove speedily back with my eyes almost closing all the time. I haven't slept the whole night, driving here. Wow, the whole house is so clean, except my room. cheers to me, I got a new helper, plus she pays for her stay. And who says I want to settle down? Pish...! I'll always be like this, a sick me. I crashed on the bed, folded like a baby then slept... ★★BELLA★★ I woke up to an empty house, he already left like a ghost. Keys were tied to my wrist, even though he asked me not to enter his room, he came in mine. I had a quick bath and did all the chores, plates that looks like they haven't been washe
★★JAYDEN★★ "Don't drink this, I won't be there if you choke...!" I collected the drink from her. She was coughing a lot. She rested her head on my lap. "Mr Richard, you talk... I'll listen." "Don't call me mister, Richard is OK." I sigh before starting. "All my life, I've always been the rebellious one, the goat of the family. I had this dream, to be seated with my father and other men, to talk if business, not to stand beside him while he talks." "It's bad to want to start from the top I know, but it's my habit, I don't need help from anyone, I want to be my own boss, with other bosses not to learn and be nurtured under them. I don't need recommendation from my father!" She was singing " twinkle... Twinkle star... No, twinkle, twinkle little star." With a different voice.
★★JAYDEN★★ I opened the running shower and forced her under the water "stay here, I didn't ask you to get so emotional and drink alcohol". I let the water pour on her, I'm so good at taking care of people. After pouring her water, I drag her to the room... "Bella, you wanna play a game?" She covered her eyes, feeling shy "Yes..." "Ok... then join your hands together" I nod my head as she did. I collected a the curtain rope and wrap her handed together, covered her with a blanket so she doesn't feel cold. "Bella, count 1 to 400, if I come here and you're still awake, I'll bite you. Count now..." I say and closed the door. My mom was still on... "Mom, pls, don't ask me about her...!" &n
★★BELLA★★ "Then why didn't you die since?" he asked "sorry sport, your life is worthless." He ruffled my head. I can't be happy, I became like because of Mom's death. "Pish..." I hissed. "My life isn't, I'm happy alone, I'm tough and I love this loneliness I feel". "Oh really?" He nod his head slowly. "How tough are you?" "I can take anything." I boldly say... "I have a task for you, since your tough and fearless" "What is it?" I asked. He leaned closer to me, and say lowly "don't be in a hush, you have to help me receive something". "Bella, if you do this right, I'll pay your share of the month's rent" he say. "Tell me what to do?" I say without hesitance. "At five
★★JAYDEN★★ I Woke up, how did I end up on my bed. I never know the road to my bed? I opened the bathroom door and got in, picked a tissue to wipe blood from my nose while looking at the mirror... I haven't had a good look at myself for the past few days. I touched my cheek bone. I'm so tired of living, this drug addiction turned me so into a monster and still, I can't do without it. When I think of stopping, I crave for more, my mother will be so sad when she finds out I do drugs.I wash my face with the running water and sighed... It's already so late. Coming out from my room, I meet the freckles girl looking at me with a different expression. She stared at me like she wanted to use a dagger to tear through me. I strode to the kitchen "don't you get tired weirdo?" "Mr Richard, you do drugs?
★★JAYDEN★★ "What is it?" She asked softly. "It's about me." I answered. She followed me inside. "Bella, I hugged her tight... Sorry for using you... This addiction, I can't over it. I go crazy if I don't have drugs for four days."She stood like a log of wood... Not saying anything."It's impossible to stop it... My mom will be ashamed if she knows about this. Rather Than telling on me, help me" i say... I hug her more and tightly... She feeps so warm to be with. I start to remember my first murder. How I killed our house maid's daughter... She saw me taking drugs... I was so frighten, and she was going to scream. I hold her mouth to stop her from shouting, never knew I was suffocating her. Slowly and slowly... She went out of breath after struggling to free herself from me and she died. ••Flash back •• "Jayden?!" 20 years old Rita yelled... I sat on the floor in the basement, out of myself. "Huh uuu?" I answer weakly... "You take drugs...??!"
★★JAYDEN★★I Stood beside my father's bed as the doctor, who was called over spoke. "Madam," he started, looking directly at my mother who's eyes were teary. "He is paralyzed I'm afraid to say. I think he was poisoned, not in the last two days though, like a slow poison. Although i tried to detect the actual poison used, but it's a smart case, the person was so wise not to let him get to this state in a week or two." He sighed, wiped his face with his hand out of frustration as he was also confused. "I think it's the work of some sort of poison, since he never reacted earlier to this poison, it was impossible detecting it I'm sorry. You'll have to take him to Japan for treatment, some local temple i will direct, this poison is spreading slowly, but destroying more" he continued.I looked at my helpless father on the bed, his mouth is twisted, like one part is toothless, his neck bent to the side, he can only rotate his eyeballs in fear. Look
★★BELLA★★He put his hand around my waist. "Let's dance." I put one hand on his shoulder and held his with the other, climbing on his feet, he gasp a bit with a smile, showing me ‘I'm ok’.The song went louder, He was looking into my eyes, making me feel guilty for some reasons. "Bella,""Hmmn?," I hummed as a reply. "Nothing," he said and smiled again. "I just feel so happy. Is it OK if i kiss you?," he asked again."Here... You mean right here? No. No don't do it," i looked at the crowd around, turns out a lot of people stopped dancing... Just staring at us, his parents and two more couples."let go." I told him, but he didn't. "Bella, we're not done dancing, are you looking are these people?, well don't. They are badlucks. Just don't want us to be happy. And you know-" he was about to say another word when his other woman came over and held his hand, directly removing Mine from his. "You've danced enough," she said.
★★JAYDEN★★While my mother and cousins picked dresses for themselves, i admire the white dress on the couch. Thinking of how good it will be on Bella. My cousin was about to pick it and i winked at the designer with a smile. She started blushing... Still not understanding what i meant. I gave a look at the dress and raised my eye lid and brows, she picked the dress up and asked my cousin to go for another.Still smiling at myself, my mother spoke, "why are you smiling? Want to wear a girl's outfit?" She asked me. They all started laughing. I stood up and went to the porch to wait for that designer girl. Why she walked pass me shyly and awkwardly, she found me following her and speed up in her movement. Still i continued to follow her. "Wait." I ordered. She stopped in her movement."I would like to buy that dress." I smiled awkwardly at her, she must be thinking what and why i want it, like I'm some psycho."How much is it?" I asked her."Three hun
(From now hence on, I will be adding some POV from Braden's side, hope you all won't have a problem with it...❤)★★BRADEN POV:★★ I took another sip of my drink while watching her back view as she walked out of the restaurant just the way I like it, just the way I like her, in her innocence and the most naive way. My only prayers is for her to be mine, our friendship may have not lasted, but I'm so sure will last. This is the first true love I feel i ever have, Jayden just have to surrender for my sake, we're brothers. I sigh in frustration still looking at the door she went through when someone stood in front of me, blocking my views. "I never knew you will be so disgusting someday." Iris said, she was wearing a seductive kind of outfit, tightly around her body. I was about to talk another sip ignoring her, she time a hold on the glass. "Such a man," she uttered with a smile."Braden, let's help each other. You know everything is
★★BELLA★★ I Laid so frustrated on the bed, since the past two days Jayden left, no calls, neither have I heard from him. "Aish...!!!" I used my feet to jam the bed for the 6th time this evening. I think this to the only thing that can keep me sane, with the fact of me been damn frustrated.The door opened with him standing exhausted and leaned his hand on the door knob."I'm back." He smiled. Now's not a good time to vent my anger on him even though I really want to. I turned my face to the other side of the bed to hide my angry face. I could here his footstep as he approach me, I feel the heat from him as he leaned closer and whispered, "why are you not responding?""I'm sleeping Mr, have some respect." I replied then he burst out in laughter, "hahaha, you're asleep and dare to reply? You crazy spot." He tried to rub his palm on my hair but I hold him in mid air. "I told you I'm sleeping, don't you get it?!"
★★BELLA★★ I woke up with my head spinning like a wheel. Jayden is not in the room, I walked out of the room, holding my half buttoned shirt. "Jay? Where at you? Jayden?" I called his name more than once, he did not reply. "Jayden?!" I called again, and still no reply from him, i decided to check the other rooms. Another room was opened half way through, I peeped through the open space, he was arranging his clothes in a bag"Where are you going?" I asked him with the most disappointing voice."Bella, you're awake?" He brought his lips closer to kiss my cheek, I shifted my face away from his reach. "Where at you off to? You haven't answered this question.""I need to go back Bella. I have businesses to take Care of, my company is also there. It can't be without it's CEO for so long!""And me? You're leaving me? Are you that heartless?" He held my shoulder and pulled me down, making me sit on the bed as he spoke. "Bella. soon, w
★★BELLA★★ Sitting alone on the bench for the past six hours, with my eyes all blurry because I can't concentrate, My butt starts to ache. I don't think it's alright to go inside, that woman in there, she doesn't like me. I've taken a nap twice, still the evening is taking so long to get here. I continued to swing my legs with hope that Jayden will come back and find me here. I lost my phone with all the tension. "Bella?" A sudden call of my name. I turned to see who it was. It's Gabriel. He had an overwhelmed smiled on his face. "You're here?!" He asked in a more relieved tone. "Bella, I've spend the last days of my life searching for you, boss won't let me rest. Let me take you to him now." We both got in the car, as he started the engines, he spoke, "Why didn't you call anyone? Or rather go inside?"Gabriel is better than when i first met him, he is a nice and free person. "Do you think that woman inside likes to see m
★★BELLA★★ "I said go away, I won't wear the dress!" I picked the sharp hair pin and threatened the stylist, it's not a joke, I'm going to stab her really bad... I already stabbed a man, there's no fear anymore."I'm warning you, stay away, both of you!" I said, with some sort of fear in my heart. One of the girls left the room, in a while she called Braden back. "Sir, see she's been stubborn." Braden stood by the door, gave both of them a coding glance, the both left the room. "Bella, you don't want to marry me? Ok then. I'll leave you to go free, I have just one condition." He said. "What is it?" I asked him, still standing on the bed. "Don't ever tell my brother I held you captive, I will go, finally leave you and never come back, promise me Bella, i realized my mistake." He's giving up so easily? Strange. "Promise? If you do your part, I will do mine." I say."Yes, you can go Bel
★★BELLA★★ "Wow...!" He leaned closer and whispered in my ear. "Want to know how I feel now?" He asked s he loosed the tape from his hand. I turned my face away from him as a drop of tears drop from my eyes. Why would he do this? "I feel like I met a goddess... Bella, you know that shy feelings you have in front if my brother? I finally know how that feel. I feel same now." He smiled widely. "I really hate you more and more. You're worst than a dog!" I yelled at him. "Hit me my baby." He put my tied hands on his body, was forcing my hands to hit him. "I feel ticklish Bella. At heart, at mind," he smirked. "Even my soul feel same." "Let me go please, we're friends you know." "Keep shut!" He roared. "The word 'friends' makes me sick, how can you say that? Jayden was your friend first, right? You fell for him. Friends are allowed to fall in love Bella."
