Molly:I was still frozen for a moment as I stared at the pictures of us at the beach when Farrell pulled the bathroom door open, startling me a bit.Quickly, I put away my phone a mnd averted my gaze. "What?" He asked, walking up to me with a half smile on his face.I shook my head, and then I said "nothing."This was because I didn't want to ruin a perfect moment. Being away for a week was the only time to bond with Farrell, and even though we might potentially be in trouble, I didn't want to say a thing to him."You still want me?" He asked me and I sighed, trying to keep myself from rolling my eyes.He was about to hold me when I shifted away to stop him."I think I need to pee," I said to him, and then I hurriedly left for the bathroom with my phone.When I got there, I went over the text, then I checked the account to see if there were pictures, but it was a new account with no followers, but the account followed random people."Fuck!" I groaned out loud then Farrell knocked li
Molly:"Oh my God you startled me!" I exclaimed, holding my chest and panting so hard.I looked around, surveying the environment for the culprit, but it was only Farrell and I. I quickly reached for his pockets in search of his phone."Are you okay?" He questioned, raising a brow.How could I be with all that was going on? The worst part is that I couldn't even tell him."Molly!" Farrell called out, grabbing my hand immediately.I looked at him still panting heavily from the shock I had received. There was nothing in his pocket but his wallet. This meant that whoever was trying to play mind games with me. It was working perfectly,because I was at the verge of losing it."What the fuck is going on? You've been acting strange since today. Is there something you are keeping from me?" He asked, jolting me back to reality."Molly," he called out again. Then I got a hold of my speech, and I finally spoke up."I.. I think we should leave," I said to him, grabbing his hand but then he held
Molly:After Farrell, and I had sex last night, I got a text again. "You look better in close range," the person said.This person was a psychopath because they blocked, and unblocked me whenever they wanted. Well, I have chosen to ignore them, even though it wasn't the smartest thing to do.Today I decided I was going to try surfing. I needed something to get this person out of my mind. They were probably trying to feed on my fear and I was definitely not going to give them a chance to do that.Farrell had just woken up for the day, and he rolled over to grab my waist. The moment he pulled me to his chest, I turned around, and shot him a smile. He returned the smile,and kissed my head."I want to go surfing today," I said to him, and he scoffed. Then he shut his eyes."I'm serious," I said to him.He kept his eyes shut for a moment until his phone began to ring. Then he pulled his eyes open to get the call. He grabbed his phone in time before the call ended.The person on the phone
Molly:For a moment I zoned out, and I could literally hear my heart beating really fast. It was like I was frozen in time. My palm was getting really sweaty, and my body stiffened.Was my stalker here? I questioned myself, waiting on their next move."Ma'am it's Benjamin!" I heard Benjamin yell.Then I zoned back into reality. I sighed heavily, and then my mind got a bit relaxed.Turning around, I forced my trembling fingers to grab the handle. Then I pulled it open with a deep breath. I saw Benjamin standing in front of the door with his usual expressionless face."I'll be done in a moment, please give me sometime," I said to him, trying to keep a neutral face— one which would hide the fact that I had been scared to the bone."Sure," he said, forcing a smile on his lips.I shut the door, and then I walked to the closet to get dressed. Walking to the closet, I got out a blue bikini, and then I put it on. Farrell was going to be crossed when he would see me with the instructor, but
Molly:When he said this, I turned around immediately, and I saw a speed boat coming in at high-speed. The moment I saw this I knew deep down that it wasn't coming for anybody but me. Everyone began to surf towards land. I tried to surf as fast as I could but I lost my grip at the moment. This was because of the fear building up in me. Luckily for me, I had a leg grip on, so I got back on the Surfboard, but then I fell immediately.At this time almost everyone was back to the land while I battled to get a firm grip on my board."Get out of there woman!" The instructor yelled as I fell multiple times while trying to stand on the board.Benjamin quickly rushed towards the water, and he attempted to get in but he was held back by the instructor. Benjamin wasn't buff, he was just a normal guy skilled with handling a gun so the man was able to over power him.Looking back, I could see that the speed boat was getting closer. Then the thought that I could swim crossed my mind.People starte
Molly:The moment Benjamin pulled out the gun my eyes widened in surprise, and then I swallowed hard. This had got to be a movie. Maybe he was joking, I thought but his eyes looked really thirsty for blood."Benjamin, please we can talk this over," I said in a shaky voice.My heart was in my throat, and I believed that I was going to die today because there was absolutely no way I could get by this one. I had cheated death today, and I doubt I would be able to do it the second time."Get in!" He commanded,pointing his gun at the elevator, but before he could say anything else, he dropped to the floor after I heard a long bang.In front of me stood Farrell, and Pedro. I quickly kicked away Benjamin's gun to stop him from picking it up. The elevator closed immediately, and Farrell walked towards us with Pedro."Why did you do it?" He asked."I'm.. I'm sorry, please don't kill me," Benjamin muttered.I was lost on what was going on. How Benjamin was connected to all these still confused
Molly:Merely thinking of everything that has occurred raised a lot of goosebumps on my skin. I couldn't believe Benjamin was gone. This made me remember when I told Farrell I had seen more dead people this year than my whole twenty three years of living, and I didn't mince words.When I was younger it was only the old people that died, and then people started dying from diseases, and accidents. But with Farrell people died almost everyday.While I pondered on the things that had happened, the door to the room was flung open, jolting me back to reality, and in fear. I was scared that it was someone from the rival group, but Farrell walked in with his face scrunched as ever."Pack your bags!" He said to me, and then he walked to the closet, and got out his luggage.He took his clothes, and dumped them into his luggage without bothering to fold them. Does this mean Genevieve was dead? I questioned myself but I couldn't afford to ask him. He said we would leave once they found her."I d
Farrell:"You have five seconds to answer, and I'm not a very patient person!" I said, gritting my teeth."I came on my own, I wanted revenge for my uncle's death," Genevieve said with a shaky breath."Wrong!" I growled, and then I pulled the trigger.She screamed in fear immediately, and no bullet came out. She was lucky."You might not be this lucky the next time, so answer me wrongly and stand a chance to lose your head!""Please, I… I.. no one sent me. Please!" She pleaded with tears streaming down her cheeks.A moment ago she acted really tough, now she was at my mercy, so pathetic of her."For the last time, who sent you?" I asked.She took in a deep breath, and then she opened her mouth to speak."Father sent me, but don't go after him. He is ill and bedridden, and…""I know that Marco is ill. You do not have to spell it out for me, and what I do with him is none of your business," I said to her."Please don't, I beg you…kill me instead," she said, crying and pleading with all
Molly: I sat on the terrace, taking in the breathtaking scenery, from swaying trees to flocks of chirping birds. Everything was lovely, and it gave me a warm feeling in my chest. I reflected on my life five years ago with my eyes closed. I could have sworn I made the wrong decision with Farrell that night, but the opposite has been true. Everything went swimmingly, except for the fact that my mother died without recognizing me. Rest in peace, sweet soul. But I am grateful for that night at the club and whatever made him magically attracted to me. I was still trying to enjoy the moment when Corduroy let out a piercing scream. I blinked open my eyes and sighed heavily. How could I have forgotten the most exciting, yet stressful, part? Being a mother! “Mummy!”Corduroy called out in a shaky voice, forcing me to stand. I walked out onto the terrace and into the penthouse. Corduroy pushed the door open before I could reach for it, and he looked up at me with teary eyes. As he cried, I

Molly:*Beginning of flashback*"I'm hungry, and my tummy hurts," I said to Andrew who had just gotten back from work. He signed and made his way up the stairs, brushing shoulders with me."Foolish child," he said, and I muttered a "God bless you,"I didn't think he would hear me, but before I could tell, he yanked me by my hair and flung me on the wall."If your mother won't teach you how to behave then I'll do that. It's my duty as your stepfather to teach you how to respect your elders," he said, and I scoffed.He slapped my cheek, and then pushed me down on the ground. After which he kicked me on my stomach. Then he crouched down close to me, and pressed hard on my jaw."Remember, you can't say a word to your mother if you want her to live," he said to me, and left while I stayed on the cold floor in pain, sobbing silently.My mother usually returned late because she ran her business from morning until late at night. She did all this because Andrew couldn't provide adequately for
Molly:At first I was dumbfounded when Farrell said those words. I couldn't believe it was finally going to happen. I felt weird for a moment, and I reached out to him when he turned to leave. I walked in front of him, and held his face then looked him in the eyes."You don't have to do this, and…""I have decided to let go of the past, and that is the only way that this would work," he said. "I love you Molly, and I want us to work," he added, and then he kissed my lips briefly, before taking my hand.As we walked down the hallway that led to the room, my heart thumped very fast. I feared what I would see and at the same time I was curious.I felt an in rush of air which left my body with goosebumps as we came to a halt in front of a door. He took out the keys from his pocket, and unlocked the door. As he opened it, I took in a deep breath, and shut my eyes. Then I walked in, and opened my eyes to see a crisp bedroom.At first I was in awe at what I had seen. My room was nothing comp
Molly:My body trembled in fear as I felt Lola's tiny hands hold mine. I was blind folded so I couldn't see her but I knew that something terrible was going on. She sobbed silently, and I placed her head on my lap."Don't cry, we will be fine," I said to her trying to hush her, but she wouldn't stop."Will mummy die?" She asked, and I felt my heart crumble in multiple pieces.Having to accept that your parents were evil hit different, but then she had to be grateful that Courtney wasn't her real mum. Well she didn't know this yet so it was understandable that she would cry over what was going on."Mummy will be fine, and your uncle will save her," I lied even after I had heard the gunshot, and Courtney who was shrieking in pain.This child was going to suffer a lot of trauma, but I promised myself to take good care of her, because the only place close to home would be Farrell's house, and I wasn't sure he was stable.The door of the room opened after a while, and I heard someone appro
Farrell:When I got a hold of the gun, I smacked Courtney gently on the face and she fell to the ground then I put the gun in my pocket, grabbed Lola and walked towards the room I heard Molly's voice.Before I could get to it, Courtney jumped on my back, and grabbed hard on my neck. Her hands were obviously weak, and watching her struggle would have been funny in a different scenario."Can't you see I'm trying to save you!" She yelled, and I yanked her off my back.I pushed Lola into the room."Farrell," Molly called out from where she sat with blind folds but I didn't respond, I shut the door, and faced Courtney.The fact she kept acting as if I was in danger and needed help from her made me angry. There was definitely no amount of help that she could offer me at this point."Save me from what? You had one job but each time you were around, you only made me feel worse. I can't believe I failed to realise it until now," "Ingrate!" She scoffed, and then she stood up."Do you know how
Farrell:"Courtney what is…" I was about to complete my question when I looked away from Lola to see Courtney holding a gun.I became alarmed at once, and I tapped my pocket to see that my gun was gone. I turned around to see if there was anyone behind, and I realized Courtney was actually pointing the gun at me."Come here, Lola," she said, and then Lola shook her head, holding right on my neck.Deep down I wished I could handle the situation better but then I knew that the only way to think properly was to hand Lola over. Lola screamed in fear asI put down at once. "You'll be fine," I said to her as I pushed her over to Courtney who looked blood thirsty. I couldn't understand what was going on, and I didn't want to get violent yet. This had to be a joke because there was no way she would openly threaten Lola with a gun. She loved Lola so much."This has got to be a joke right?" I asked, Courtney and she laughed briefly then she placed her hand firmly on the trigger."Does it look
Farrell:"Maria!" I screamed, and then I jerked up at once. I looked around to see that I was lying on Maria's bed.The sun had just risen, and I guessed I had slept walk once more but this time it was for a good cause. I stood up from the bed,and walked to her dresser where her combs and everything were still perfectly laid out. I picked one of them, and I found a few strands of her hair on them. "You were really here," I muttered, running my hand on the comb. Suddenly a very gentle breeze swept by, giving me a brief chilly feel that had the hairs on my body standing, and goosebumps sprouting out of my body."Rest in peace, my love," I said with a deep sigh.I felt an inrush of emotions as I did when I met her, but this time I wasn't angry. It felt nice knowing she was in a good place, and all that could have been was terrible so I was grateful that it never happened.They said you couldn't have your cake, and eat it so I took a deep breath, shoving off the emotions that engulfed
Farrell:After so much contemplation, I grabbed the keys to Maria's room. I made up my mind to keep an open mind. I had to heal from this trauma, or else I would pass it over to my innocent kids who were on the way.When I left my room, I noticed how late it was. Molly crossed my mind, and I hope deep down that she could hold on a little longer until I figured myself out. Quietly, I walked through the long hallway that led to her room. I placed my ear on the door opposite which was were the old lady stayed. I heard her giggle to herself as usual, and I turned around to face Maria's door.I walked to the door, inserted the key, and pulled it open. To my greatest surprise he lights were on, and I heard the shower running."What the?" I questioned myself, slamming the door, and rushing to the bathroom to turn off the shower.The thought that Molly just have been here got me annoyed a bit but then I tried to push it away. I had to push off every little hint of anger. I began to convince
