Agatha stepped out of her car, pulling out her bag and shutting the door behind her. Smiling to herself like a Cheshire cat, Agatha strode towards the entrance of the school, holding herself with elegance and gaiety.
"There's my bitch! Finally!" Called out Sam, the coolest girl after Agatha in the school, also known as Agatha's lead minion, and...her so called best friend.
Sam had been gossiping with her other minions about the hottest rumours circulating, and how they could help to put fuel to it when Agatha showed up, breaking it all up and turning all attention to her.
Agatha smirked at her friends, whose daily morning routine when they saw her was to squeal out loud, so that the whole school would know Agatha Russo had arrived.
Agatha flipped her shiny black hairs, smirking at all the hot boys who had come to take a look at her, like they always did.
"Oh my God Agatha is that what I think it is? The latest Gucci bag! Bitch why didn't you tell m
"So did you find a partner?" Sam asked with fake enthusiasm again, while they walked to their next class together. Halloween party was three days away, and Sam and the others were still to find partners."No." Was Agatha's reply, making Sam stop moving as her anger begun to boil in the surface. "What the fuck Agatha do you have no intention to attend the party?""Don't you?""What?""I said," Agatha turned around, glaring at her friends. "Don't you have any intention to attend the party?"Sam and the other's looked confused. "Well of course we-""Then why haven't you found anyone yet? Why is me finding a partner your concern when you haven't even found one yourself?"Because bitch, if you don't find one and we do, there's a high chance you will steal one of ours. But you don't know that you dumb bitch.Agatha knew, she just wanted them to admit it.But of course they wouldn't. So she did it herself.Stalk
Soralina cried her heart out, running her nose in a handkerchief offered by Lucian while he rubbed her back, saying it was alright, that everything was going to be fine. And that she should stop crying now.But nothing could console the broken Soralina, who cried with all the anguish in her heart, feeling it break into several pieces."Soralina you have to control-"Heavy footsteps reached them, making the duo look up only to find Agatha coming to a halt, her eyes wide as she stared at Lucian. "Is it true?""What is?""That Morris is dead?"Lucian gulped, glancing towards the girl in his arms who broke out in another fit of tears. Lucian didn't need to reply, for that was an answer enough for Agatha, who scoffed, releasing a frustrated sigh and running her fingers through her hairs, messing it up."That good for nothing prick."Soralina's sobs came to a halt, and she looked up at her sister in confusion. "What did you say?"
Agatha’s eyes closed and reopened again, her mind in a daze while all she saw was occasional lights blinking at her. Little did she know that it was she herself blinking at them. Her body felt on fire. Every single fibre in her body felt like lava had been coursing through them, and that her bones where melting. What will I look like if my bones melted? Would I look gross? Maybe if my flesh would melt, I wouldn’t look that bad… Agatha had no idea what she was thinking, all she knew was there was immense pain coursing through her body, and that she was lying down on something, getting wheeled away. Maybe…in a bed? Can a bed move on its own? Her eyes tried to stay open for more than thirty second, trying to take a look at her surroundings. When she noticed Romeo, Lucian and Soralina beside her, their faces filled with worry and horror, with Soralina still crying, she closed her eyes again, feeling the pain increase as black dotes begin to appear in her vision. Ahh. The bed isn’
Flashback:Soralina cried on without a single break, while Gustav held her in his arms, getting his Armani suit soiled just like that.Meanwhile Agatha and the others watched in utter horror. Especially Agatha, who knew that getting affection from Gustav was never affection at all. And if he ever displayed it, he had ugly reasons.What was the ugly reason this time, she would soon find out.A while later, Soralina pulled away, while Gustav held her by the shoulders, checking her face for Lord only knew what. "Feeling better?"Soralina nodded meekly, her cheeks stained with tears but her eyes no longer streaming, and the redness in her cheeks said she was embarrassed to cry like that in front of everyone.Gustav nodded as well, rubbing her arms up and down in a way of comfort, but it only irked Agatha out even more."Do you want to talk about it?"Once again she shook her head, not trusting her voice to speak. Gustav nodded again, letting go of her and stepping back. For a long time he
One year after the wedding of Gustav Russo and Jessica Russo, they had a child. A boy. He was to be named, Xavier.But even before his christening ceremony, he died. It was said that he developed a terrible disease which no one saw coming, and died.That is what they said everyone.But it was hardly the truth.Because Xavier Russo didn't die of an illness, he was killed. By his own father.Gustav's greatest rival, was said to be behind all of this. Because at one point in Gustav's life, he had shown weakness, and when a man in that position shows even the slightest weakness, they are greedily taken advantage of. Some are even pushed to the verge of death.You can say that was what happened to Gustav Russo. He was taken advantage of because of a grief he could not share with a single soul, not even his wife. It was in that moment his rivals had seen him weakest, and so did his people.No sooner had he succumbed to alcohol, his own people turned against him, reporting his whereabouts to
No one called for Agatha the next day. Not maid Tristi, not Romeo, not a nosy Soralina, not Gustav. No one.No one woke her up in the morning, not even when she missed morning practise, or was late for school. Because when Agatha woke up that day at eleven, she found a vacant bedroom, with no Tristi hovering above her.At first she was angry, deciding that she will teach Tristi a very much needed lesson, going so far as to fire her as well. She finished her morning routine in haste, but when she came out of the bathroom and found no Romeo waiting for her to take her to school, Agatha was left confused.What was wrong with everyone today? She thought. A part of her was glad she had missed half of her morning boring school, but the more sane part of her knew how bad this was going to affect her in every way.If Gustav found out, she was dead meat. Which he would, but Agatha couldn’t be blamed alone. Both her maid and guard are nowhere to be seen.Which, as she thought deeper, was a litt
Soralina returned from school, having had had a lovely day with her friends as they tried their best to cheer her up. She was late to home, for they had gone to an amusement park, rode the merry-go-round because it was the least dangerous and had the sweetest cotton candy ever.They had taken plenty of photos, and a lot of other people took with them too, because of their unnatural set of hair colours that made them look like the fucking rainbow.Yup. Definitely a great day.Soralina hummed all the way to her room, feeling excited for no real reason. Nothing awful had happened today, and she was liking the day so far.Lucian had brought her macaroons that morning as a means to cheer her up as well. Soralina felt content. Everyone had been trying their best to cheer her up, so why shouldn't she give them the satisfaction that their hard work worked?The only dark cloud she had over her head was Morris funeral. It was today, but she wouldn't attend. Gustav's orders.Even Agatha had plan
Agatha's eyes fluttered open, and she stared at the plain white ceiling above her. Sunlight crept into the room brightly, making it harder for her to adjust to the light.Slowly but surely, she moved her head sideways, which was a very painful move because of the severe headache she was going through. But the little she saw, she knew she wasn't in her room.She was in a hospital.Right. Father beat me to a pulp. How could I forget that?She tried lifting her arms, but even that proved painful, with all the needles connected to her and going all the way to different IV bags, some with saline, while some holding blood.She could hear her own breathing due to the oxygen mask placed over her nose and mouth, making it harder to smell or talk.But through all that thing, Agatha knew one thing. Her whole body was bandaged from head to toe.Oh God...how ugly I must look. Please don't tell me they saw me like this? At least not Romeo? Please!This is just so embarrassing."Lu-Lucian, I think s
Agatha stares at the sleeping figure of Theo on the bed, no real emotions crossing her face. Unlike the hospital room that she received when she came in the Scorpio Venom Society, all plain white, Theo’s is different. There’s a whole forest painted in the walls with baby elephant’s and giraffes and monkeys and every other forest animal, smiling and playing within themselves. Her bed is just the same, and so is her nightgown. And as Agatha sits there staring at her daughter, she feels like she is staring at a younger version of herself. You look so much like me, and yet, when you open your eyes, you look like that damned man. Like your father. Thinking to herself, she doesn’t even realize when her hand moves to her neck as she grabs the anklet, playing with it in between her fingers. And just as she does that, she remembers a certain someone, feeling like it was only yesterday that she met him and kissed him in his soft lips as he held her in his arms and comforted her. Pulling the a
Silence prevailed all over the room as Agatha finished her story, stalking around the room and looking at all of Louise’s belongings with a blank face. but just because she is blank does not mean the others are, especially not Soralina.“After that, Lucian and I stayed in the America, watching your every moves, making sure you were always protected and out of trouble. Lucian made sure to check on you while I…I looked after my daughter.” Agatha concludes, stopping right in front of Louise’s desk as she notices something she hasn’t seen for six years, something that was stolen from her by Louise.Soralina stares down at her legs while Theo makes her way to her, clutching Soralina’s hand. “So…Xavier is…alive?”Agatha turns to look at her sister, slowly nodding her head as she takes the anklet in her hands, the one Louise stole from her when he drugged her. “He is very much alive. In fact, he is even listening to us right now.”Louise head whips towards Agatha, making her point her ears.
Xavier...is alive?How...How is this possible?Xavier was dead. He died as a baby. He..."No." Agatha breathed out, shaking her head continuously. "You are not Xavier. Xavier is dead. He died at infancy even before I was born. Don’t you fucking lie to me!"The anger and hatred in Agatha's voice had Xavier tilting his head sideways in amusement. "And who told you that little sister?"Silence."Gustav?"Yeah. But I won't tell you that.Xavier chuckled to himself, shaking his head. "Since when did you believe anything Gustav ever said? So far, everything he told you turned out to be a lie. What made you still believe in it?""I...I..." Agatha stammered, wanting to doubt Xavier’s words and tell him he was trying to manipulate her but she didn’t. Because deep down she knew he was right. Gustav lied about everything; he could have lied about this too."No he didn't. This was the only time he was actually honest with you."What?Agatha's head whipped to the man with a glare set in her face,
Flashback:Agatha lied there with her back pressed to the rock hard earth, her heart beat slowly disappearing but her pulse remained. She drifted from in and out of consciousness, not knowing how long she was there and when death would come to her and take her away already.She knew Soralina had been there and was already gone, hopefully to take care of Theo. But what she didn’t understand was, why she was still alive.Just as she believed she was taking her final breath with her beating finally ceasing, she heard the muffled voices of men from a distance, or more like they were bear her, she just couldn't sense dye to her body shutting down."She's here. Boss! We found her! She's here. You don't have to come up." Someone was whisper yelling like as if scared to be heard.Agatha's head moved to the side, wanting to know what was going on around her until the face of a man zoomed in on her, eye brows knitted together in worry."Is she even alive?" Another said, joining his companion. T
Soralina stares at her sister, her eyes turning wide with shock and horror at the sight of the girl she thought was dead for the last five years. Her lips remain parted in surprise, voice giving up on her while Agatha finally turns her attention away from Louise, before they feel on Soralina. Green eyes colliding with blue.So…you are the greed eyed hooded figure? The two of you?You were the ones saving me this whole time? Watching over me?Slowly but surely, Agatha’s lips morph into a smile as she walks towards the girl, looking down at her. “Hello sister.”“A-A-Agatha?” Soralina whispers, her hands rising up as she gently touches her sister’s cheeks as if checking to see whether she is real or not. Agatha smiles sincerely, her own eyes getting glassy as she holds onto Soralina’s hands letting it reach her cheeks. “Yes, me.”Soralina huffs, disbelief never leaving her as the first of her tears start to drop, making Agatha tear up as well. “It’s…you?”“No one else but your twin, Lina
USA, 2022,Shock and horror registers in Louise's face as his jaw drops down, his eyes staring at anything but Soralina and the little girl beside him.He staggers backwards, his breathing getting laboured as he takes in Soralina's story. "No. No you are lying. This is not possible. Agatha and I never...We never...""Never what Louise?" Soralina asks in a deadbeat voice, already done wiping her tears after remincing her past life. "Never made love to Agatha?""I...""Of course you didn't. You don't do things nicely." Soralina replies with bitterness in her voice as her eyes get darker. "What you did, was rape her."Louise's head shoots up in light speed, finally understanding what Soralina means. He remembers that time, the time he drugged Agatha and made love to her. He remembers it because that was the only time he ever got to do it, and it remained memorable.But what he didn't know, is that she was pregnant after that."Of course you didn't know it. Because Agatha isn't crazy to t
Present day:Words failed Soralina as she sat there with Agatha's limp body in her arms, feeling numb all over. It has been only thirty seconds since Agatha passed away, but to Soralina it feels like decades, centuries, as she feels the bond between then being severed, detached, removed.Above her she can hear the echoes of the battle which is soon coming to an end, with one side only alive now to be the victor. And a part of her already knows who it is.Slowly but surely, Soralina gently places Agatha's head down in the hard rock floor, brushing her stray hairs from her face as she sucks in a deep breath, willing herself to move and not start crying again."Goodbye, my other half." Soralina said, feeling her usual excited heart beating now being just a mere thudding in the chest, just like every normal human being. Because the one that held that excitement in her heart, is now gone.Not wasting another second, Soralina tears her eyes from her sister and stands up, knowing another sec
“Here, drink this.” Sister Aria said as she offered Agatha a bottled mango juice, making the girl smile at her. “Thank you. Where is Sister Nina?”“She is getting your reports checked.” Sister Aria replied, taking a seat beside the girl in the waiting room while Agatha nodded. This made Sister Aria turn towards her, tilting her head to get a better look. “You did a great job Agatha. I’m so proud of you.”A tight lipped smile appears in Agatha’s lips as she touches her belly, listening to the soft heartbeat of her daughter. Sucking in a deep breath, she said. “Do you think I can do it? be a mother?”Sister Aria smiled at her sincerely, rubbing the girls back. “Aww my dear, of course you can. What makes you doubt so?”“I have never even spared a glance towards a baby, let alone take care of one.” Agatha replied earnestly before turning to stare at her palms as she said softly. “I kill people Sister Aria. I don’t protect.”The young girls words broke the lady’s heart, wishing to somehow
Three Months Later:With angry steps, Agatha stormed inside Sister Aria’s room, finding the lady with a bunch of more nuns including Sister Nina. One look at her glaring face and the nuns stood up once by one, getting out of the room safe for Sister Nina and Aria.Agatha stormed forward and without waiting to beat around the bush, she got to the point. “When are we going?”“Going where Alexandra darling?” Sister Aria asked, although she had a clear idea of what Agatha was talking about. And judging by the fuming glare in her eyes, she knew Sister Aria knew too. “Don’t play dumb. You know what.”“I’m afraid I don’t.” Sister Aria finally looked up at Agatha with a smile plastered on her face and this only made the young girl even more angry. “Fine! When are we going to the hospital to abort this thing!?”The smile left Sister Aria’s face but Agatha didn’t care the least. “That, is not a thing. It is your child, and you are its mother. Just because we call it an ‘it’, doesn’t make it a t
