As hard as I try, the work spirit doesn't seem to be flowing much for me today. After the hearty cry in the morning, I had gotten up and taken on the work I couldn't finish the previous day, keeping my door locked all through. Intermittently, I had received calls and texts from Alex but I hadn't replied any of them. The truth is I don't know what to say to him and I don't know how to address what we have on ground. I sigh and lean back on my seat while checking the time. It'd nearly 7pm.....and I haven't heard Alex leave. A part of me wonders if he's staying back to know when I leave. If that's the case, I can't let it happen. I need some time alone now. And if I really want it, I'm going to have to take it. Pushing up from my seat, I reach over the desk and grab my purse. I arrange the files on the table and give myself a customary glance in the mirror before heading out. Slowly, to avoid making any sounds, I open my door and creep out. I pray to God that he'll be too occupied with

My eyes widen so fast. I make to push the door back closed but his feet is already there, stopping me. So I do the next smartest thing I can think of, I run through the house and into my kitchen, hoping to escape through the back door. I hear his heavy footsteps behind me as I run into the kitchen and it's only when I reach for the knob of the back door that I realize that since the first break in, I've kept it permanently locked.....and the key is upstairs in my room. I spin around to see that he's already inside the kitchen, making his way towards me, a smirk on his face. My body feels petrified and I press my back on the door, hoping that by some miracle, it'll swing open and I can escape. But that doesn't happen. He's still edging closer when I remember that I'm in the kitchen.....and the kitchen has knives..I don't let my eyes go in the direction of the knives before he knows the next part of my plan do I feign crumbling to the floor and when he rushes over to where I was standin

He reaches over and caresses my cheek and I suck in a sharp breath of disgust. "You are even more ravishing this up close". He says. My chest rises and falls as I try to maintain effort in reigning in my disgust. "We finally meet. Aren't you even going to offer your brother a hug?".I'm this close to spitting in his face but it takes alot of effort to hold myself back. As he said, I'm not curious to find out what it feels like to be filleted while tied up. "What do you want from me?". I grunt heavily. He laughs out loud, a laugh so hearty that his chest bounces with the effort of containing it. "Oh you are still so so cute". He runs his fingers through my hair again. "You looked better with your long hair". He cocks his head and in this moment, he totally reminds me of a predator. "Why did you cut it off?". When I don't answer his fingers tighten around the strands and he pulls on my head. The pain brings tears to my eyes and I grunt. "I got tired of it". I whisper aggressively."I

A murderer..... murderer... murderer.....The familiar word reverberates through my mind and I close my eyes to shut it out. But the harder I try, the more futile the effort because clear as day, the memory filters up from the deepest of my archives, playing out in my head like it was just yesterday it all happened. 15 YEARS AGO......I sit in front of the mirror and brush out my hair stiffly, staring at my face like it's the first time I'm seeing it in a long time. Perhaps it is. For as long as I can remember now, I've not had the liberty of basking in the beautiful process of watching myself grow. I turn 13 today and no one had even wished me a happy birthday. When I had gone to school earlier, Miss Polly had told the class that it was my birthday and they had all said nothing, no one in school had wished me..... except Miss Polly. When the ball rang and we all filed out, I had heard the girls, Cynthia and her friends whispering not so quietly about how creepy I was b

No, I tell myself. That can't be possible. He was just....up there with me a minute ago. How can he just be....dead? Just like that. I reach down and shake him, hoping he'll come awake with a big jolt like he usually does when he's had too much to drink. "Rick?". I whisper tentatively. I shake him up, but nothing happens. He doesn't jolt or startle awake. So I shake him again. "Rick? Rick???". Still nothing. That's when I finally consider the possibility that perhaps he's really.....dead. I sit back on my heels, my body going limp with shock. If he's dead then that means....I killed him. My eyes widen and I turn to look at his lifeless body. Ace is right, I just killed a man. Unless..... unless we can take him to the hospital fast enough and they save him. That's what they do in hospitals right, they save people. I'm sure they can save him. So stiffly, I push up and walk towards the phone in the sitting room. "Where are you going?". Ace asks, his gaze following me. I don't say a word

My eyes shut tight against the nauseating flood of memories. A single tear slips down my face and when I feel his fingers rest on my chin in a sick attempt at caress, it takes everything I have not to spit in his face. "Ah ha….". He continues. "It seems like he doesn't know after all. I wonder what his reaction will be when he finds out". My eyes snap open but I can barely see his face through the blur of my tears."Leave him out of this!!!!". I say through gritted teeth. "This is between you and I. Do not bring him into this". His smile widens sickenly and he cocks his head arrogantly. When he speaks, his voice is laden in mock pity."Oh? I'm afraid that can't happen, my sweet. He's touched my possession. Surely, he has to pay for that". Bile rises in my throat at the manner with which he calls me his possession but I remind myself that what's more important right now is keeping this between us and not involving Alex in any way. "I made him do it. I'm in love with him and I made…."

He stares at the door in mild alarm as the knock sounds again. My breath stills in my chest at the thought of what he'll do next. Is he going to shoot me as fast as possible and get it over with? When he looks back down at me, his mouth is twisted down into a sneer and he doesn't look happy at all."Looks like your little doggo followed right behind after all. He's not going to leave here if I don't send him away". With the gun still pressed against my head, he reaches down for the tape and pulls it back over my mouth. I try to scream behind it but it only comes out as an inaudible muffle. "Be quiet, damn it!!!". He whispers into my face angrily. "One sound from you and you are dead". He leans in towards me and snarls in my face. "I'm going to go out there and answer the door, and you are going to stay here quietly like a good girl. Do you hear me?". With tears brimming in my eyes, I nod in fear and finally, he stands up, tucking the gun into the waistband of his jeans. With one more

I see his eyes widen as he rushes forward. I'm full on crying now, the tears streaming down my face and obscuring my vision. It feels like a miracle, perhaps this is the one miracle to make up for all the years of misfortune I've gone through. "Nicole!!!". Alex rushes forward and firstly reaches for my hands that are still taped behind me. "Are you okay? Fuck, what the hell is even going on?". His breaths are coming hard and fast as he works on freeing my hands. From the sitting room, I hear Ace's grunts as he probably tries to get on his feet. Alex's blows must have landed well. When I hear his grunts coming closer, I feel a sense of panic settle in my chest again but thankfully, the tape comes undone around my wrists and for a moment, my hands feel too good to be mine. The blood flows right in my arms again and it's the most delicious sensation ever. Ace walks in through the door right in that moment and I see that the lower half of his face and a good fraction of the front of his
