To finish her off completely...

2024-10-29 19:42:56"That bitch is nuts!"
Zara is yelling in my office as I'm seated opposite her on my swivel chair, still shaken by the events that just occurred.
Heaven storming into the office. Heaven glaring at me. Heaven taking out the knife. Heaven slashing her wrists. Heaven being rushed to hospital.
It all happened so fast that I was shook at the moment. The only thing that could register in my mind at the time was that it was my fault. The reason she was lying there, blood dripping profusely from her wrists was all because of me.
CJ rushed her to hospital and I haven't heard from him since.
"Let's just hope she's okay."
"No! Let's just hope she's dead!"
I gasp. "Jesus! No Zara!"
"What? I'm just saying what your mouth is too afraid to say. I mean, what kind of stupid stunt is that she pulled? Such a dramaqueen!"
Could it be a stunt she pulled? Or is she so obsessed with CJ that she's really willing to risk her own life?

My pillow is torn into pieces.Balls of cotton are lying everywhere on the ground and my bed. The sheets have been torn apart outrageously, the pieces lying on the ground. Everything has been misplaced and hurled to the ground, even my clothes.But that's not horrifying.What's horrifying is the body on the bed.The dead smelly body of a cat, blood splattered on the torn sheets.A note is left just beside the carcass of the cat."You are following in the footsteps of the cat!!!!! RUN OR DIE!!!"A hand touches on my back and I jerk in horror.I heave a sigh of relief when I see Seven standing behind me looking worried and concerned.For a moment, I stare at him, the lump in my throat burning. I feel so shaken and so scared that I fall into his arms and lay my head on his chest. I fight the urge to break down into tears so bad but it's all to no avail since I break down so hard and so bitterly, all the hurt I've been kee

"Another nightmare?"Seven looks at me, worry and pity in his eyes. I hate pity. But that's how he looks at me every time I wake up from a nightmare screaming and he tries to calm me down."What are these nightmares about?"It's been an entire week of having endless nightmares every time I close my eyes. But I can't bring myself to tell him. I can't bring myself to tell him that the nightmares are about him... That the reason I wake up trembling is because I'm so scared... Not for myself... But for him... He kills him every time and he stands at the door, smirking at me in victory, telling me he finally got me.But how?How am I going to tell Seven about him?How will I even start? I've never told anyone about him before... Not even Dee or Amira or Ren or Zara... Nobody... So, how will I start by telling Seven about him?I can't.I just can't.It's been an entire week of having the nightmares and they keep getting
TRENT Do as you please...
I get home late that evening.I find Seven sitting on the couch, flipping through every channel. He can't seem to settle on one."Hey boyfriend!" I greet."Hey," he greets back dryly.I've never seen this version of Seven ever before. His mood is so off and he seems grumpy, which is so not like him. He's a lively soul that radiates joy and loves to laugh. So seeing this mundane side of him when I need him to be his usual self the most breaks my heart even more.But maybe it's the universe punishing me.Punishing me after giving me such a wonderful creature of a man and still having the audacity to cheat on him with some piece of shit just for some few seconds of fun...I hope he never finds out. To hurt Seven after all the love he has shown and given me... To lose him would break my heart a million times.I want him.And I'm going to be serious with him.And I'll NEVER EVER cheat on him.EVER AGAIN!

Fidel?It doesn't make any sense.According to the police, he was caught overspeeding and coincidentally, his fingerprints matched with the fingerprints collected at the crime scene.He's the one.He's the one who has been leaving those death notes at my door.But why?"Because I hate you!" he exclaims. "I fucking hate you! You tore apart my best friend and now you're here to finish him off completely!"So that's the reason?"CJ is helping you, right?" I ask cooly, my hands on top of the rough table separating the both of us.Fidel smirks. "So, you want to drag him into this so he can get locked up? No bitch! He wasn't part of this so leave him out of this!"I narrow my eyes at him. "So this was it? Because of CJ? That's why you kept tormenting me!"Fidel leans in to whisper. "And I'd do it again till you vanish from our lives again! This tim

"It was you, right?"Jessica takes off her sunglasses. "Me?""Fidel's accomplice, right?"Jessica sighs. "Can you let me in? Please? I want us to talk."I hold the door firmly. "Whatever you have to say, say it now.""It's about my husband, Fidel..." she starts nervously. "I need your help."I stare sharply at her. "It was you, right? You were his accomplice in all this..."Jessica swallows hard. "Yes.""So, what do you have to say to me?" I ask coldly."I'm sorry... On behalf of my husband. We are sincerely sorry..."I scoff. "What do you want, Jessica?"She heaves a sigh nervously. "Please drop the charges against my husband."I burst into a laugh. "Are you bei

"Syrr... Syrr...""Syringe?" I ask in panic.CJ is still trembling, foam trickling down the edges of his mouth as he points at his desk."Where? Where?"He points to the drawers and I quickly open and see a syringe on top of a book. He points to his bicep and I quickly inject on the part.Immediately I inject him, he passes out leaving me freaked out.Fuck! What has happened? Did I kill him?I bend down to listen to his pulse but I hear nothing. Totally nothing.My heart stops.My whole body freezes.The only thing I can think of right now is, he's dead. And I killed him.I killed him! I killed him!A mighty cough overwhelms me with joy and relief.CJ coughs and pants so loudly, gasping for air.
TRENT I'm too classy for that
CJ is quick to go and hug his mom.She hugs him tightly, sniffing his scent and ruffling up his long hair like he's some kid.CJ is the first to pull away from his mom's tight embrace. The minute they are apart, her eyes land on me and she gasps,"You!"She looks at me in horror, her eyes almost about to pop out of their sockets. Someone might think she just saw a ghost.CJ whispers something in her ear and she calms down a bit and goes still. She starts walking towards me, sneering at me then right past me, completely ignoring and snobbing me.That was weird.She grabs a glass of wine from a waitress and raises it to all the guests in the room."To my comeback!"Everybody cheers joyfully to that.Heaven enters a few minutes later arrayed like the empress of the empire. The minute CJ's mom sees her, she screams so loudly and happily.Heaven runs to embrace her tightly. CJ's mom touches her cheek and pec

TRENT Epilogue
CJ'S POVTearing Terra?What does that Even mean?Tearing Terra?To tear her apart is like tearing me apart. When she's hurt, I hurt. When her heart breaks, mine does too. Even when I tried so hard to torture her and cause her pain, at the end of the day, I would feel so bad about myself and completely drained. I would lie asleep at night, thinking about her and that would tear me apart.Tearing her apart tore me apart too.In short, I was not able to tear her apart like I had previously planned.I tried so hard to tear her apart but I was not able to.I wanted to stay away from her. See her suffer from a distance but I couldn't do that as well. I couldn't fucking stay away from her because I wanted to kiss her. Caress her. Tell her I had missed her. And it was so hard for me because I saw her on a daily... Saw that beautiful hair being flipped at meetings... That perfect sweet mouth curving up a happy smile at lunch... T

Three months laterCJ is gone.Everyday I wake up, I'm reminded of that.I don't wake up with him beside me anymore.It's honestly sad, gloomy and boring without him here.It's cold mornings like this that I wish he was here, lying next to me. Holding me so tight that I felt his warmth. I wouldn't be feeling this cold because we'd make some intense hot love that would leave us burning. That would force us to head to the shower to kill things off... In each other's arms.I miss him...Everyday, I miss him.I drag myself out of bed and head to the kitchen. I sit down to my cup of hot coffee, looking out the kitchen window. Morning mist, thick as smoke.It's going to be a long boring day.No plans whatsoever.It's
TRENT Don't you dare touch me!
"Don't tell me to calm down!"I yell at CJ.We just got back to town and everyone is acting okay and cool. Because it's not their only sister that has been kidnapped by the most dangerous serial killer I know.Their only sister that's pregnant.While I was having the time of my life, my sister was in suffering in the hands of the devil himself. That breaks my heart into pieces."Terra," Dee who just came in some few minutes ago says. "It has not been confirmed that it's Roman who kidnapped her..."I laugh sarcastically and bitterly. "Oh wow! That makes a lot of sense! I think she got lost on her way to the mall, don't you think?"Ren intrudes. "Terra, I think you have to relax-""Relax!" I scream. "Relax? My sister is in the hands of that evil monster and you're telling me to relax! How can I fucking relax! Who knows what the hell he's doing to her! Lord!"I fal

TRENT Good in the kitchen
"Shit Eli! You scared us!"CJ and I are in a towel as we stare at both Eli and Zara from upstairs as they are downstairs."Biiiiiiiiiiiitch!" Zara shrieks. "So this' whatchu' been upto after some jail time! Lookatchu' being naughty!"I roll my eyes at her, concealing just how excited I am that she and Eli are here.It's going to be so much fun.The perfect way to escape from all the negativity and toxicity. I was drowning with everything that was going on. A part of me died slowly day by day.But this... This will be the perfect therapy.An old beach house with the man I love and two close friends.The perfect combo!Eli tosses himself on the couch as CJ resumes to the master bedroom that we slept in."Zara? Can you please come up?"I borrow a dress since I didn't carry any clothes. A few minutes later, I step out of my room with my hand in C
TRENT Just Us!
I knew this moment would come.But I swear to heavens, I was not prepared for it. I was not prepared to explain myself. I don't know if the answers I got are the right answers or if they are answers at all.I open my mouth to say something then I quickly shut up, careful with every word I'll say."Honestly, Cedric... I can blame it on a lot of things but they all come down to me. To my selfishness. It was me..."I take a deep breathe and continue."When I eloped to Russia, I did therapy because I couldn't live with what I had done to you. I had nightmares. I drank myself to sleep. Bars were my favorite spots. But therapy kind of helped me deal with what I had done in a positive manner and learn to live with myself."I swallow hard, nostalgic about those pretty dark days of my life." And through therapy, I learnt some things I didn't know about myself. I had severe anxiety. It's something I had lived with, yet didn't know
TRENT I'm sorry!
The sun is low on the sky when CJ opens the cab door for me.I step out into a stone circular driveway in front of a mansion and I look around blindly In awe.The view of the mansion in front of us is breathtaking. The house sits on a cliff above the ocean and the low sun sets the waves on fire.CJ leads me around the house, his bag on one hand as he holds my hand with the other. We walk along the edge of a large blue pool and towards a furnished pool house.At the doorstep, is a large porcelain pot. CJ bends it over and takes a key under.CJ opens the door and I step inside to an old classic living room with artistic old paintings on the cream walls and one-armed sofas with hundreds of pillows. The table in the middle is wooden and seems like an expensive old furniture that has seen the best of years.Underneath the sofas, lays a Persian rug and just in front of the decor, sits a huge fireplace.&nbs
TRENT That man is not me!
Present day..."He killed his friend?"I nod my head sadly. "Then he forced me to clean up for him and drag the body to the basement."Honestly, that was it for me.I didn't care if he threatened me anymore.I had to leave him. And leave him right away.If he could kill Oscar that quick within a snap of a finger just because of some argument, I wonder what he'd do to me?There's no way I'd sit and wait to see what he'd do to me... I had to leave!"So you stole his packaged drugs and sold them?" asks CJ."Yes, to a guy he despiced. Osborne. Some rich tycoon and I sold it at a very cheap price because I needed to fly away..."CJ looks at me in worry. "It must have been hard for you...""Yes... Especially because I had to stay in h
