Life was improbable to be consummated with delectation and prosperity. There are moments when you go up as if riding in a big-dipper, you close your eyes with fear consuming, but you still hold your hands high in the air enjoying it. That’s how it goes in our existence. There are pain and pleasure.
As I tried to reach up in the sky, taking my momentum, I felt like the creation had stopped revolving around me, and I was living in an eternal paradise. I have questions, approximately, where am I? Why am I here? Why am I alone? And lastly, what is my purpose here?
But does it matter any longer? Everything I have dreamed of is right here before me. Peace is all I ever wanted. I’m not hanging on a burden. I no longer feel any hatred I felt on earth. Even if I am alone, thus, living by yourself doesn’t mean you are lonely. Who cares about anyone if all they have ever done to you is give you agony? Pain? Suffering?
The school chime rings, indicating to the students that it’s time for lunch. They enthusiastically pack up their things, which is the precise inverse of mine. I ascent a deep sigh then inertly gathered my notes from my table. I waited for them to induce out some time recently. I trailed behind a swarm of students hurrying towards the school’s famous cafeteria. Luckily, I survived and managed to get out of that place without getting crashed or hit by someone. As my vision stayed on the ground, I bit my lip, watching my feet step forward. I’m back at the university again. Some of my professors asked me how I had been because they had heard I was gone for a week. I just stated I got hit by a bus, and I managed to live. Carls was unrefined quiet. There are times he would look at my way, but the minute our eyes locked, he’ll look away as if he had seen something horrendous. The colors of his face depleted, and whenever I tried to talk to him,
I woke up inside Nathan’s room. The treacly and musky scent of a man is trailing on my nostrils. Ethan must have brought me here after the incident. I lost consciousness again, and no vestige of him was seen in the corner of the room. I got used to his emergence and departure schemes. I’m glad he’s not here to make things worse as it is already. I got up, trying to sit straight, but my head was killing me.My stomach growled. How long have I been passed out? My legs wobbled when I tried to stand straight at the side of the bed. My arms are resting on the table. I breathed out a relief of air when I successfully stood up. When I tried to walk, I almost lost my balance, but good thing I managed myself. I inattentively looked down at the table when I felt a note was sticking out my fingers. I opened it and read what it said.“Eat your food. Change your clothes. Go to school. See you soon.”
My heart was throbbing intemperately, my palms were sweaty, and my muscles were cold. Even if I shook the anxiety away, that doesn’t stop my mind from thinking. I glanced sideways from my shoulders. I walked up through the school hallway, shooting a gaze at the person who’s been tailing me. His hands are inside his pockets, and his side profile is breathalyzing from this view. When he slowly peered when he felt I was watching him, our eyes clasped together in a moment when the objects around us suddenly disappeared, and he’s the only person I could vision.I slug down the lump in my throat. He’s observing me closely. I feel like I’m caught beneath his profound gaze, which can take any person’s breath away. I looked out and just focused my attention on the ground. I was maintaining a strategic distance from him. Reason? Well, there’s a lot to take down notes.He’s a serial killer. We all know se
The roaring noise of thunder deafened unto my eardrum. The wind harshly blew my hair, terpsichorean with the wind. My body is shivering from the coarse rustling of nature. I squeezed myself as I tried to keep intact on the ground, trying my best not to lose consciousness. I blew an abysmal breath. I focused my attention on the basis, trying to apprehend where I was heading.I don’t know anymore. I watched the raindrops fall on the sidewalk as the sky cried. The weather coexists with how I feel. I smiled bitterly when the rain worsened. I paused, then looked up. I didn’t blink as the rainfall unto my confront. I couldn’t feel the stinging notion in my eyes, and my vision was getting blurry, but I didn’t care anymore. I’m used to woe. Pain is my middle name. Agony is my best friend.“You’re fired!” the voice echoed inside my head. The slamming of the table made me flinched but not daunted. As I w
I gaze at the ceiling, my heart beating like a drum. My internal parts tumble, and my inner part between my legs is sore. I gradually looked down at the man gently resting on my stomach. His arms are resting over my right breast, measuring it like a bra. I breathed out an overwhelming sigh at that point played with his hair, dumbfounded.His words are playing inside my head, like rehashed verses I have listened to from a song. Although, it’s clear what he is relating, still, I can’t acknowledge it. I have my reasons. A casualty and executioner don’t go along. Even though he set me free and chose to let me live my life, that doesn’t mean something is going on between us.I have questions. A lot of them, actually. Why? Why me? Why all of a sudden? Is he for real? Isn’t he joking? A cold-heartless murderer like him? I don’t want to judge since I don’t know his story. He’s hard to read. I kno
I couldn’t walk conventionally. I feel unclothed, since, although I’m wearing this autoerotic dress Ethan bought for me. I can feel my highlights warming as oceanic crowds abruptly showed up recently. I swallow. A few men of their word look at my way. Their lascivious eyes didn’t cover up the reality they were gazing at me. My hands fixed around Ethan’s bear. When I looked up at him, his eyes were prominent. He looks at those men as if he’s prepared to go for a chase.I can hear the shuffling of cards. The chimes of machinery. The spinning of wheels. The low claps come from their group of onlookers. Men rule this place. My muscles tensed when Ethan snarled like an unhinged beast. I think the person to be blamed here is him since he brought me here in the first place. I think what’s this place, be that as it may, why? Why are we here? Does he know how to play those things?“Ethan.” I attempted t
“He’s going to lose.”“What is he thinking? Wagering for his wife? Is that a mad man?”“He’s doing it on purpose.”Ethan set down his wager. The group of onlookers puff, stupefaction because of the amount. Two cards were dealt with him by the trader. His brows wrinkled while scrutinizing the cards. My vision is getting dim due to my tears falling perpetually. I didn’t fight back as I just acknowledged the reality that he was gambling on me. He has chances of losing based on the mass reaction and unsatisfying scowls.“YES!”Alejandro punched his fist in the air. The sweats on his forehead are forming. His eyes are dilating with so much exhilaration. I lowered my eyes on the ground, watching my tears drop on the floor. The audiences are getting chaotic as they applaud and
He slammed me against the wall the minute we got home. He ravished my separated lips with his pernicious mouth. I couldn’t breathe. He pinned my hands over my head and spread my legs, making the dress reap off. I gasped, needing to halt him from getting wild, but he didn’t let me. Instead, he pushed his groin to my delicate portion. He was making my legs wobble, and my internal parts flip. I attempted to pry away my head from him, but he rapidly grabbed my jaw and made me look at him forcefully.“E-Ethan!” we need to talk. We can’t do it right now. I still needed answers from him. Why did he wager me? Why didn’t he let me know about gambling? Who are those people?He didn’t listen, as usual. What he wants, he gets. He ultimately annihilated the dress I was wearing at that point, looking down at my nakedness. His eyes shone brightly when the moon reflected his eyes. He was about to savage me when I sl
“I-I…” she lowered her head, her vision was staring on the floor. She couldn’t find a word to say after hearing everything what I had said. I smiled, tilting my head to my right while waiting for her reaction. A drawn-out earsplitting silence filled the whole room. I glanced at the man who was standing behind her. He took a step forward before placing his hand on her trembling shoulder. Her wails almost filled the whole room, and it was followed by her siblings. “I-I d-don’t know what to say…” She doesn’t need to weep that much but I understand her reaction. It was heart breaking, even my heart could still cry even at this age. I let my head rest on the heard board when her hold on my hand tightened. Harry cups her cheeks, wiping off the tears that were pouring. She looks up then their eyes locks for a minute. “Your mother fought so hard during her younger years, Ettasha…” “She’s a brave warrior.” “But…” Ettasha spoke again, looking at me from her shoulder. “What happened to my
I threw away everything that can link to their whereabouts. I have to make sure everything is put into its place. Leaving print marks would impairment my disrepute. I will never…ever let them know about this.I escaped once. I am not going back again in that atrocious point. I glanced down, noticing that my whole body is beaded with their blood. I cursed, thinking of what kind of body lotion I would use to get rid of the smell. I took a glimpse one last time at their faces that were pale. i grab my mother’s jaw, tilting it to the side. Well, except my twin because he’s the last one whom I killed. His body is still warm but he’ll die.I arrange them here in the basement. No one will know unless someone will break in here.They have to go through me first before they set feet in this house. I breathed out, and was about to pull out the hem of my shirt when I saw something is sticking out of Nathan’s pocket. I took it, my eyes squinched while observing the identification card. Looks lik
“Set the alarm! Shut the gates!” I let out a bestial grumble that vibrated through the corridors, and floors. I could perceive their shrieks of torture. I breathed in, and out. My caliginous hooded eyes were shooting daggers as I watched how they run for their lives, calling all the authorities. Two decades. I have been trap here for almost two decades. Yet, none of them did ever to come here for a visit. I showed my chiseled set of teeth while extending out my long arms. My sharp claws flared, lustrous when a light hits it. Everyone was out of their sanity. Some were crawling, making their way out of the Asylum. Thanks for their crackbrained staff that was new here, and accidentally left the keys in my room, I managed to discharge. I can cognizance the consuming flow of rage streaming through my blood vessels. I step on Dr. Victor Mend’s ankle, halting him from what he is planning to do. He’s trying to escape from this place. I joust my head playfully, my hooded sinful eyes were s
Harry couldn’t formulate his words. As if they were stuck at the tip of his tongue. He was contemplating whether if he should let me or not since it’s chanceful for my condition. He have to let me. I can’t let my husband die out there.“Harry…please!” I drop on my knees then clasp my hands into a worship posture. Harry was bewildered, panicking when I kneeled before him. I parted my lips to breath because my nose was clog.“You have to let me, Harry.” I mourned, consolidating for him to get his approval.“Natasha…” he was in deep sorrow to see me on the ground. Tears escape from his eyes while they lingered on my features. He chip his lowermost lip until blood was gushing out of it. He heaved a sighed then closing his eyes.“Just don’t fucking leave my side, okay?! Your situation can worsen, and I won’t let that happen!” he screamed but afterward I jumped on him, my hands were wrapped tightly around his neck.“Thank you…” I mumbled against his ear. Harry was silent for a minute before
“No…”I slowly dropped on the ground while staring out of nowhere. My heart is sinking into the bottommost of the pit. I couldn’t even feel my body anymore. I don’t know what to think, or what to do. Harry is just watching me while my whole body is exploiting down into the ocean floor. I was sinking like a body that has an impairment.I couldn’t breath.I couldn’t process everything.Harry kneeled down when his men started to assemble everything. I felt the ship turned on its engine, signaling that it’s time for us to move forward. Everyone was doing their part. Someone hoist the anchor, and the propeller ignited. My eyes squinted on their own, ogling at my own palms that were covered with blood, bruises, wounds, and battle scars.A stinging drop of tear pour down, streaming on my arms. Everything was hard for me to take. This whole thing was hard for me to consume, and digest. I gradually clenched my trembling hands before hanging my head low in shame.“I’m sorry, Natasha, but we can
We need to hurry up, and go to that ship! Harry was waving his hand, motioning for us to go onward. He was shielding himself so Auger’s troupes won’t come for us. Ethan was holding my hand securely. My lips were parted slightly, while catching my breath. There were times we almost stumble on something but Ethan was too quick to dodge it.I could almost see it. The ship was waiting for us. Even a whole populace of football stadium can fit in that. I caught some of his men were waiting in alignment in front of the ship. Some were coming towards our way while holding solid, and heavy guns. I don’t know how Harry manage to call for a back-up that quick, and how any of them did not realize that he was calling someone. However, I am glad that they were so engrossed from their leader’s story.“You guys need to get there quickly! We’ll hold them off!” Harry shouted at the top of his lungs before firing at someone. The blasting noises was enveloping my ear drum, deafening my hearing.“H-how a
“So…” Auger clasped his hands together, looking at us with imperil in his eyes. He slowly squat so he could even his face to Ethan. My husband growled, thirsting to reach Auger’s face so he could gash it into pieces. Before he could take a hold on him, I raised my upper body then block my body, ceasing him from his thought.Ethan was screeching like a savage he is, letting out an animalistic rumble. He was prepared to alter if it weren’t for me halting him. I know how mad he is right now, and his emotions are acceptable. However, I can’t afford him to do anything heedless. He needs to calm down first!“Ethan! Please!”It seems like he couldn’t hear me, nor he doesn’t notice me at all. My voice was hoarse from screaming, and begging for him to stop. I know it pains him to endure like this. I know how hard for him to accept this. The only hope we have was taken away from us with just a snap of Auger’s finger. All of our endeavor was thrown away.I hugged him tightly while weeping in tea
“Come on! Let’s move! Let’s move! Let’s move! “Harry was shouting at his men to move forward when the helicopter landed successfully on the ground. I couldn’t help but to cry when everything was going smoothly for us. After countless of attempts to run away from the grasp of authorities, we finally landed to our destination.Words can not describe how overwhelm I am right now. We wouldn’t make it this far if it weren’t for Harry’s help. I closed my eyes firmly then caressed my cheek to remove the tears that fall off. This is it. We’re almost there. One step is all we need.We’re going to start a new family on our own. Harry will help us to changed our identities, and do a plastic surgery. I know it’s a tough choice to convert ourselves into a new citizens, and fake our personal identity. However, we have no other choices. The authorities here are going berserk just because of Ethan’s criminals record, and his curse. They will not let him get away with this.They will do whatever it t
“We are not going to make it!”A tear leak when the former pilot yelled at the top of his lungs. I heard the gasps of agitation coming from the other passengers here. I lifted my head to see Ethan was doing his shot to fly this thing out of the heavy weather that is approaching us.“ETHAN!” I called his name because his veins were throbbing on his arms. His teeth were gritted together, and his eyes were angst.I called his name again, stretching out my arms just to reach him. However, I felt Harry’s grip on my dress, pinning me on my place because the chopper was spinning, and is acting up.No…I couldn’t risk this without holding him before my last breath. I have to hold out, and tell him everything from the bottom of my heart those words that I haven’t tell him. It was inconspicuous to see clearly because of my weeping. I implored for Harry to let go of me but he did not listen.He was shaking my shoulders, snapping me back to actuality. He was yelling something in front of my face w
