Broken Promises

last update Last Updated: 2021-08-26 18:08:25

I went outside

Just as I said I would last night

You promised you would be there

But you weren't there.

I passed time staring at the skies

It was beautiful

Just like your eyes

The wind blew across my face

And I shivered at the contact

A sudden cold spreading through me

But I still stood waiting

with a strong sense of determination

I laid on the grass

Hoping you would come soon

To make me warm again

But you never came.

It is morning now

And just like the night passed away

My heart died as well.

    Iliana tried to shield her eyes from the morning sun with her palm. She abruptly lifted her upper body and glanced at the clock. It was 7:00am and she was scheduled to be at work for the morning shift soon. When a sudden wave of nausea and pain from her forehead hit her, she had to get up. She jumped to her feet and dashed to the restroom. Clara had been awakened by the commotion and was looking at Iliana with a grin on her face."Precaution 1: Keep Iliana away from that which starts with an A.""What do you mean, Clara?""A for alcohol, stupid. Take a good look at yourself. Are you able to recall anything that happened last night at all?""Of course, I do. We went to the ball, and then I...I..we....he... look I can't do this right now. I have a severe headache.""All right, take this." She said while stretching her opened her palm to show the pills inside."Thank you," Iliana said as she drank some water and swallowed the tablets.

    In a secret military base, "Welcome Major General, how was your trip?" Sergeant Mello who was standing at the entrance of the General's quarters asked. "Get Sergeant Matilda here and David right now" "Actually, Sergeant Matilda is still on a mission and Sergeant David had to go with five hundred soldiers to support them as we hadn't heard from them in a few days since they left. We've tried tracking their locations with the tracker in Sergeant Matilda, but the GPS keeps saying it can't recognize their location. We do not know when they will return and it seems the Hantils had anticipated our attack." "Mn. Get me my laptop.""Yes Major General." His fingers flew across the keyboard and after a few seconds, a gruesome scene appeared on the screen. On the screen, a thick forest could be seen, as men in yellow and black shirts holding sophisticated guns were walking to and fro while some things that looked like human beings could b

    Country M's Airport.14:00pmA man dressed in a black t-shirt, a pair of grey joggers and black sneakers was standing in the middle of the airport while trying to take in everything around him. The corner of his lips turned upwards revealing a dazzling smile as he strolled around the airport while tugging at his luggage. He walked further to the exit when suddenly he collided with something."I'm sorry for running into you sir. Now I have ruined your shirt with my drink. What will I tell moonlight?" The little girl said slapping her forehead."Hi, what is your name?" The man asked, crouching to the three year old's level."My name is Chloe. I'm really sorry for what I did to your shirt sir. Please do not tell moonlight, she'll scold me. Please?" Chloe begged her blue eyes with specks of violet watering."Do not worry about it okay? I can always change.

    "Butler Finn, are you really here?" Nechel muttered in surprise as he ran forward to embrace the elderly man."Welcome back, Nechel." The old man said, trying hard not to cry.Nechel had been gone for four years, and he hadn't been able to contact him during that time. Butler Finn had thought he'd never return home, so seeing him again brought back a lot of memories. He missed how Nechel would run to him to tell him about everything and anything on his childish mind, and how he would always advise and guide him in the right direction, just like a father would.The sound of a throat clearing jolted the two people out of their reverie."Let's go inside, Nechel.""Alright, father. I'll see you later, Butler Finn. I have to go inside now.""There is no issue, child."They all walked through the mansion's massive, magnificent golden white doors.

A few minutes later, she arrived at an isolated section of the town and slowed down when she saw the underground building sitting beneath the fields. She parked her bike in the garage, taking note of her surroundings. From her bag, she removed a long black hooded coat, which she put over her assassin gear.

    Iliana and Leader Sifei soon entered the private room. The room consisted of a small parlour and an inner room which was the bed room. “So tell me what information do you have?” “Have this envelope, it contains all the information of every transaction made by Master Gu. It also contains information about his movements and what times he has his men with him and what times he doesn’t. He loves to drink tea a lot, and that is his major weakness. He can be poisoned through that only….” She stopped as she was interrupted by a knock on the door. “Come in” Sifei replied. “Leader Sifei, here is your order.” “Serve it.” The waiter hurriedly placed two glasses in front of both of them and opening the wine bottle, he poured some into Iliana’s glass and bent over to pour into Leader Sifei’s glass. He exchanged a knowing look with Leader Sifei and left leaving the remaining wine on the table. “You can go on, sorry for the interruption”

Suddenly, in one swift motion, she brought out the dagger from her coat and stabbed his arm with it. Shoving him away, she loosened the coat and let it fall revealing her assassin gear. “Indeed, I was sent to kill you. But did you really think that I was that foolish?” “Now tie yourself up or else, I will slit your throat.” “No, please don’t kill me. I will do as you say.” Leader Sifei muttered in shock as he hurriedly tied himself up. Iliana took the end of the rope and tied his legs as well.

You ungrateful brat, do you?! I saw everything that happened just now. I know what you are trying to do. You want to enchant elder brother so that you can have a say in this mansion, so that you can own this place, the company, everything…but I won’t let that happen. Can’t you have some shame? He is your cousin!”“I clearly refused him, but….”Grabbing her neck, Lina interrupted with a dangerous look on her face, “But what! You are just a worthless orphan who wants to sneak her way into a wealthy family, but the next time I see you getting cozy with my brother, you won’t like what I’ll do to you.”“I….I…won’t go..n..ne..ar…h..im..again.” Iliana managed to say with tears trailing down her cheeks.“You disgust me.” Melina spat an

    Clara turned off the lights after Iliana finished with her cookies and they both soon fell asleep.The mansion became very quiet indicating that everyone was sleeping.However, that night, not everyone could sleep and enjoy the comfort of their beds. Melina paced about in her room with a phone in her hand. It was quite obvious that she was expecting a call from the anxious look on her face as she stared at her phone. Annoyed, she threw it on the queen sized bed and stomped her foot in anger.“When will he call…when will he call?”Very soon, her phone rang and she ran across the room to get it.“Spring of roses, were you able to get anything on them? Where they live, who they are?”“I traced the plate number of the car, however, the car had been placed for sale as a second hand vehicle.I asked the car dealer if he knew who sold the car to him and he told me that the person came wearing a hood.
