Rebecca's Revenge

Rebecca's POVI am driving along the coastal road ten meters away from our house. I always miss home after my mother's loss. I don't know how to start all over again. I can describe myself as a total mess without any direction to go.It's been months since I last visited this lonely road. I thought I'll never pass this way again but today, I found myself going back. Weird though, I don't even understand the reason why.A lot of things are messing in my mind right now, including the thoughts pursuing my dreams of becoming a successful lawyer in the future. I want to fight for her...protect her from someone who wanted to harm or even hurt her someday. I can't believe that my goals will only be a dream and will stay as it is, now that she's gone.The road seemed to be an endless way whenever I look forward. I glanced at the rear mirror of my car and I could see the scenery of the ocean. It was already

My feet brought me to the second floor. I decided to sleep inside my mom's room. I can still smell her scent everywhere. I don't want to touch her things and everything she owns in the basement. I want to feel her as if she's just sleeping beside me. I know I can be comforted by the warmth of her bed if I will do it. Laying down here feels like she is still hugging me even if her physical presence is gone already.I slowly got up and walk towards the window like I used to do when mom is still around. We used to appreciate the leaves slowly falling off the trees around the house. We even laughed at the sight of squirrels chasing each other for wallnuts that's scattered around the vicinity. All those simple things we're both happy about. It is a painful to know that my life will never be the same again without her.My knees started to lose its strength that I can't help but to lean on the window pane. Instead of bringing back good, old memo

"I'm glad you can still remember me." He grinned."Gavin, right?" I said in a straightforward manner. His smile widened as I say his name again.Why of course? Who can't remember someone who almost stole my car keys.His gaze is melting me deep down. Why am I having this kind of feeling every time I look into his eyes? I guess he's feeling happy because I can still remember him.“Yes, baby girl. The one and only…” He said as if we’re so close to each other. I just look at him. I honestly don’t know what to react. Of all the people that I will meet tonight, here in this place, why him?Baby girl? He's totally out of his mind."Will you tell me your name this time?" He politely offered one of his hand as if he wants to shake hands with me. Sheira's shoulder touched mine as she whispers, asking me who is the man I am talking with. She's not letting her gaze off Gavin, too.

"Hi, Rebecca Dale." A lot of their classmates giggled as he called her full name. She blushed in an instant because of the attention he's giving her. She must admit then, that she didn't see it coming. "Wow, girl, you already knew our transferee?" One of her curious seatmates asked her as she poked her arm. She just held her affected arm as she glared at her classmate who grinned at her maliciously. She didn't like it! Of all people she'll have to see, why should it be him? "Nope. Don't mind him." "Ouch, you're hurting my feelings baby girl." He said it boldly that made the whole class wild. "Class, enough. Go back to your seats becaus

She suddenly got up as she held her phone on his left hand and placed it on her left ear. "Don't you want to stop?" Irritated, she tried composing herself so that she will not be mad at him.  "I'm not even thinking about stopping, you know." "You're difficult to talk to. I swear." "I already did what you want me to do. I went home with my aunt. Is calling you still not allowed, too?" "What do you think?" Rebecca groaned as she got really irritated. Gavin could even hear her voice. He couldn't help but chuckle. "You know what, you have to calm down. Your beauty doesn't match what you're doing to me right now."
