Second Life

chapter 12- Abby's truth

"what crime did you commit to get caught in my parents hands. And what all did they tell you to do? Were they the reason for which you tried to kill me twice in school premises and thrice out side the school?" I asked question after question without giving him time to answer.

"I will answer all your question today but one at a time at it sure will take time. I have all the time in the world to tell at least it will decrease my guilt, have a seat and I will tell everything." he said.

"one minute I will inform them that everything is fine", with that I went towards them and told "guys everything is good here but I have some things that I wanted to know and it will take some time, you guys go ahead and have a nap , I will tell you guys later."

they looked at me confused and if I am sure about what I am going to do, so I reassured them "Guys its ok I am sure, I will be fine, if I need anything I will call you. good night"

they just nodded their heads and went towards their tents and I made my way back to Abby with soo many questions running in my head.

When I reached him he was already sitting at the edge of the hill staring at the open sky. I made my way to sit beside him he noticed me but did not make a move so I waited for him to make the first move

Abby P.O.V

Emily went to inform her friends everything is fine and when I saw her retreating figure all the events that I did to her slashed in front of me to make me feel more guilty for all those that I did.

It is time to let out the guilt in me that I was the reason for my parents death for me being the reason for Emily to go through all these.

she came back sat beside me and waited for me to continue. After I composed my self I began talking.

Ours was a small but a very happy family, We had to move from Scotland to California for my dad's business . That is when I joined the school.

The first time I saw you was on my first day of school in lunch break. You were sitting under a tree all alone eating a sandwich . I saw something in your eyes that said you are lost and empty. I thought of approaching you but I didn't know what to talk or how to start a conversation. the days passed and months passed but I didn't have the confidence to make a first move.

One day I did make a make a move and we became the friends and I am very grateful and will forever cherish the the 1 month I spent with you.

one day we had huge losses in my father's company it gradually got shut down and later we were not able to pay monthly bills as well so both of my parents were addicted to drinks and we didn't know what to do for a living. All my parent's knew were business their whole life because both the sides of my grand parents were from business background. where as I was underage and may put behind bars if I keep drinking. But we need to do something for a living and to pay bills. I got a job of selling goods trough a friend when I joined that is when I understood . Goods means drugs. At first I decided I would go against it but, I don't have any choice other that doing the shitty job so I started selling drugs and I earned pretty well to pay bills , groceries and I was also left with some pocket money. Few months I spent selling drugs and my parents joined with me to sell so we could earn more and finally put an end to all those and live a normal life like before and start something new.

though we never knew who our boss were we were well informed and warned to take care of our lives. One day we had a huge parcel of drugs that are to be transported and yes we did supply them but they refused to pay the amount decided by us. One thing led to the other and they were dead , we killed him. knowing that , our boss came to meet us to tell what our next step should be and that is when I saw Mr. and Mrs. stones I don't know how but your mother identified me and asked if I were you classmate , when I replied with a vague yes she made a deal with us . you do whatever we tell you in school to Emily stones other wise your parents will be dead and you will be put behind bars for life.
