Everything was the same. Everything was just like that night, the night almost a year ago. But this time, what different was that no one was there to gather around me, no one was there to take me to the hospital. This time, the accident wasn't caused by someone unknown. It was caused by my father, which hurts more.
Once again, I was lying on this cold ground of the basement all alone, covered in bruises. That man did it. He just beat me to death. I expected this, but it hurts more than I expected. Well, I'm almost dead. How can my father be this cruel? He isn't even worthy of the title father.
X_____________X
Two days went by, and I was still sitting in this cold basement without any food. We didn't have any blankets in here because my mum never lets anyone go to this basement. At this rate, I might be dead, but I couldn't help but think about taking revenge, and for that, it was best to leave this country because first, I need to change myself. I don't want to live like a scared kid my whole life. I need to get away from him to plan against him. All I need to pretend was that I gave up and ready to follow his orders and make him think that he won, and that was quite easy based on my looks as I haven't eaten for two days and look weak. That's all I need, and now I need him to open the door and accept his order to leave this country. For these past days, as soon as I woke up, I did nothing but plan everything out for my revenge. But the plan needed some changes as soon as he announced that he was sending me away, and I think it was the best opportunity for me to take the worse revenge he wouldn't even have imagined.
Few hours went by, and I started feeling weaker. Finally, the door opened. That was smiling again. my father walked down the stairs, the same stairs from where he threw me down two days ago.
"Here, eat this" He threw a bun in my direction.
I ate it in the worse manner anyone ever can. I wanted to make this idiot think that how pitiful I am. I wouldn't say I like this jerk sitting in front of me. A jerk who is nothing but a killer. Only I was the one left who can take revenge.
"See, I'm not that selfish, I'm letting you eat, and I hope that you've learned your lesson.
"Yes, father," I said politely.
I hated the words I was saying, but that's just the beginning. I will let this man hear whatever he wants me to say and in the last, I'm going to be the one who will make him regret him all of his decision for the rest of his life. He thinks that I should leave this country and everything else will become easy and comfortable for him. But No!
He was wrong. He was helping me in wrecking him, and I swear to make him suffer the deadly pain.
"Good good!" I booked your flight for tonight. You are going to disappear within the thin air, and no one is ever going to know where you went."
He laughed wickedly, but he didn't know that this decision would be the end of everything for him.
"Go pack your stuff."
I nodded and finally breathed when I came outside of this basement.
I quickly went upstairs to my room and locked the door, and stood in front of my mirror, checking the bruises he gave me. I was shocked to see how much I've changed. Everything about me looked changed, my body, my expression, and the look in my eyes. There were some deep cuts. Just then, I thought,
"How many times she went through this?"
Suddenly, tears began to fall from my eyes, and now I’m convinced that he would go through the same pain he has given to those poor people. No, not only that pain, I'm going to make him suffer from the worse pain. It wasn't an end for me but just the beginning.
I packed my luggage and treated my wounds. Thanks to my aunt, who was a doctor that I knew how to treat myself properly. She must have predicted that what might happen to me in the future. I was missing everyone. It was really painful for me. It was so painful that I can't help but cry with all my heart. I was feeling so bad for everyone. Why was I the only one to live?
I was so lonely and in complete dark. It was very difficult to live all alone, but I needed to get used to it because I would be alone abroad. I missed everyone, and I wish to spend some more time with them. Everything happening was unfair.
.
He knocked on the door, and I wiped my tears and opened it slowly. He smiled when he saw me obediently standing in front of him, ready to leave for the airport.
We finally arrived at the airport, and it was finally the time when I was about to leave this country for good. Leaving everything that used to belong to me. Leaving the painful memories behind and coming again to get my payback. This time, I swear that I will come back being successful and crush this beast completely.
It was the last time I was looking back at him. That man was smiling because that jerk thought he achieved everything he wanted, and I smiled back because I knew that it was the beginning of stealing everything he accomplished.
I will not only take everything he achieved but his life too. It was the end of 17 years old scared and quiet Jake, and the beginning of the storm he will have soon.

Thanks for reading
First of all I would like to thank you all for reading it till the end. This book was one of my first novel ever and I've learned alot from it. It took me almost 1 year and 6 months to complete this book. It taught me so much that it will always have a special spot in my heart. I love you all for reading it and supporting it continuously.This book would not be here without certain people in my life. and I would like to take a moment and appreciate Thier efforts as well. Saamia Shabbir, one of my best friends who supported me throughout this journey. Her nickname is Amy, so you can see where that character came from. She even helped me with the making of few big plots in the novel. She is the best part of my life to be honest. Saamia, this is all because of you.Nabiha Ather Farooqi, my another best friend who's also one of my very first readers. I'm sure as hell that she would be nagging at me to give her more chapters right now. No one can support me better then her. And yeah man, do
3 Months Later:"You look so pretty," I complimented Amy as I entered from kitchen to her room and sat on the bed."Thanks I know," She said while blushing clearly, but she would never admit that."Another date?" I asked."Yeah well I got to know about it today so let's see. I guess it's some fancy restaurant and I feel like this red dress would be perfect for it," Amy twirled around and once again looked at herself in the mirror.I was so happy for her because she finally found her happiness. Since Amy and Noah started dating few months ago, Amy has been happier then ever. And everyone knows how crazy Noah is for her. He literally worships her secretly. Well about Carlos and Celine, they are still in Thier talking phase. But I'm sure as hell that they would end up dating one day so I'm not that worried about them.I looked at my phone and there was no new message. And my boyfriend? He's busy I guess because we haven't talked or seen each other since 32 hours and yes I was counting. I
Aiden was so emerged in his work that he didn't notice my presence in the room. That gave me the leverage to look at him for a while and admire him a bit. This man is a piece of art that I could admire for hours. The way his sleeves were rolled up while he was swiftly typing on the keyboard was a view I would love to watch any day. God made him with so much effort. To this day, I still can't believe that this man loves me and he's mine.I made my way toward him slowly but still, he was unaware of my presence. The coffee table was filled with paper and files while he was working on the laptop. Aiden stopped typing and leaned back on the couch as he sighed. I wonder what he's working on. All of a sudden his gaze met mine and I immediately smiled at him."How long have you been standing there, staring at me like that?" His voice was heavy like he haven't said a single word in the last few hours."Like what," I asked as I made my way towards him, eyes still on him."Like you're in love wi
The heaviness of blanket covered my body as I slowly opened my eyes. For a second, I was lying still and staring at the ceiling when suddenly I jolted up as the events of past few hours of my life hit me. I looked around and realized this wasn't my room. A second later, relived washed over me when I realized its Aiden's room and I'm resting on his bed. When did I fall asleep? Why am I in his room? And how did I even get here?I looked at my phone and the time was 9:00pm at the moment. Woah! How long did I slept for? Last I remember, it was past 3:30 pm. I unlocked my phone just to find 1 missed call from Carlos and 10 missed calls from Celine. I couldn't help but smile at their differences. One was someone with dead serious personality who would never call twice. While the other was someone with a really caring personality who would do anything to make sure that you're alright.I just find both of them very cute and suitable for each other. I guess opposites do attract after all. I'm
Stephanie continued stating her reason regarding why she helped William."He recorded my confession about how I'll help him get rid of the file and few other things which were against me. William threatened me with them and said that he won't be the only one going down. I got scared Layla, I gave up and did whatever he asked me to do. I thought I won't be able to do anything without him. But a few days ago, I found out that he was also responsible for Liam's death. That's when I got furious and started digging on him. I even got hands on the file he was so scared of getting public. It wasn't complete but it was a start. I know my company's image would be destroyed too but I'm ready for that. I'll do anything to put him in his place Layla,"If only she knew Carlos was already putting him in his place. But I won't tell her that now. I'll tell her everything when I'm done. And I wasn't done yet. I just started. Today I'm going to get all the answers I've been finding for years."Why Liam
“Can you slow down a bit?” Amy calmed the storm going inside my head by suddenly asking me to slow down. I didn’t realized how much fast we were going until she called me out. I sighed heavily and slowed the car down as Amy spoke up again.“That’s why I suggested that I should be the one driving. Your focus is somewhere else and you know it,” Obviously it is. Life decided to fuck me up suddenly and my focus is there.“It’s kind of my therapy you know,” I tried to come up with the lamest excuse I could because at this point I was anything but calm. She was right that I shouldn’t be driving right now but I can’t help it. At this point, I don’t even know what to think and how to justify anyone’s behavior.“Talk to me Layla. Don’t fight this battle alone inside your head. We’ve been through a lot but always together,”It is true that my brain is having a war inside of it right now and it’s also true that Amy and I have gone through so much together. But I don’t think I’ll be able to descr
