"Mom, do we really need to go?" I yelled but mom chuckled in response.
Really! Will I have to go have dinner at Max's place? Oh no!
Was today's event not enough?
"Ughhhhh", I groaned and walked in my closet to grab a dress to wear.
Oh no! I think she is being serious."Uh--uh-okay" I nodded and walked upstairs, searching for Max's room. Stupid me! I should have asked Cindy which one is Max's room but anyway, I don't think it would be that big of a deal.And I was right.Do you know how I recognized it almost immediately?
What?What the hell?Has he just said what I heard him say?"What the hell are you talking about?" I asked confusingly.
He's so dead. When he finally looked up, I glared at him but he raised one eyebrow at me, as if daring me to say something. How dare he? I grinned when an idea crossed my mind. Hmmm! Seems like it's gonna work out."Oh, it was really great. I enjoyed a lot too but Max didn't let me buy more clothes and he didn't even carry my bags." I mumbled quietly and looked down as if feeling so down.I could feel Max's eyes fixed intently on me and I squirmed in my seat before looking up
"W-What?" I stuttered and gulped hard, trying to keep my calm and acting as if I wasn't afraid of him right now but I couldn't avoid my heart which was hurtling like an express train.Freak! What do I do now? I looked around frantically, trying to find a way to distract him but I couldn't even think straight right now."What's wrong,Shelly?” he asked, saying my name with distaste.
Where did he go? He just walked out. He couldn't have just vanished like that. I rushed upstairs to check if he was in his room but in vain. He wasn't there.I frowned but then sprinted back downstairs. I flew opened the main door and sure enough, a dark figure was walking down the road. Is that Max? Without hesitating, I ran after him."Max", I yelled but he did not even stop. Maybe he didn't hear me but I practically screamed at the top of my lungs then how could he not hea
He's the only one who I needed right now. "Max!" I exclaimed happily throwing my arms around Max's neck but then I started sobbing uncontrollably, squeezing him tightly. I could have died if he didn't come to my rescue.
The man's arms tightened around my waist and I know I would surely feel the stinking pain if he made a slightest move with the knife but the pain never came. I opened my eyes to see Max looking around confusedly.What's wrong? I wondered and tried to look around too but I didn't dare when the man pressed the knife even more. I gasped? I could feel tears trickle down my eyes.I couldn't breathe now. He wasn't letting me breathe. I started choking. God!
I froze and stared at Alex with wide eyes. What the freaking hell?"Shelly, watch out!" Alex shouted and I leaped out of his way. What was happening? This better be some nightmare. Please god! I want to wake up from this horrible dream. This better be some nightmare. This better be some nightmare. This better be some nightmare. This better be so -"Ah", I screamed when someone caught me, breaking me from my trance.
