Alicia's P.O.V:
I leaned against a wall, catching hold of my breath. I was breathless not from all the running, but from.....God! I can't even think about him. After what I had done to him, I should'nt see him.
And the worst part is that he doesn't even know that I was the one to spoil his life which was going on without any flaws.
I punched the wall in frustration. I didn't know what to do. And why was Chris in Silicon High, in the first place? Nothing was making sense.
I was deep in thought, while walking back home(walking was the only thing keeping me sane, atleast for now.)
I was so lost in my own world, I didn't look at the road.I did'nt even know wher I was walking, which direction I was going in. I was trying to hold back my tears and so i just kept looking at my feet.................. put your right foot front,left foot front,right foot front, left foot front, rig-
Suddenly I heard the blaring noise of the horns of some car and when I looked up I saw a Masserati coming right towards me. Pefect. If the car runs over me, I would escape this world, which is nothing but a rotating sphere of misery and sorrow.
But it stopped , an inch from where I was standing. "Fu*k!" the driver shouted and got out of the car.
I was stunned to see Troy. "What the hell were you trying to do?" he shouted. "I was pressing the horns and shouting at you to move and-----------" he came to an abrupt stop.
"Alicia!" he shouted surprised as if he was noticing who I was for the first time since he began his ranting.
His features softened , but he masked it to a normal one quickly.
"Alicia? Are you even listening to me?"
I felt the world around me spinning.
"Alicia?"
My vision became blurry.
"Alicia!!"
I could see black splotches which kept on incraesing. After that, I ahd no idea what had happened.
********************************************************************************************************
I opened my eyes and immediately reclosed and opened it again, making sure I was'nt dreaming.And no, I wasn't dreaming.
I could see a huge dog, with it's mouth hanging open, it's tongue dripping saliva onto me. It was right on top of me. My eyes widened in fear.
What? A serial killer can't be afraid of dogs or what? They are humans too.
"Helppppp!!!"I screamed.
Once I had this mission of killing a billlionare's dog and trust me it was scary as hell. Actually, to speak about it, it was my only mission. I can't help it. Fathead didn't trust me with other missions. And now, he has sent me to kill some school kid.
And guess what? At that, the dog started barking. I was trying not to hyperventilate, but all in vain.
Suddenly, I heard a female voice saying"Relax,Harry!"
I seriously wondered why the person was going behind a certain Harry, instead of rescuing someone in grave danger.
Or, wait! Was the dog named Harry? Wow, if I was going to ever write a book on 'How to name your dog' , I'm definitely referring this person.(note the very , very heavy sarcasm)
Coming to the present situation, the dog was still on top of me.
"Harry, I said relax and now come down and be a good boy" the same female voice was heard.
This time, thankfully, the dog got off me. I sighed in relief and scrunched my nose in disgust at the dog hair on top of me.
The dog went to it's so called 'master', and I was surprised to see it was Charlene.
She was laughing at me and I glared at her."Not funny."
"Okay.....okay", she said inbetween laughing.
Suddenly, her face turned serious." What was with the suicide plan yesterday?"
"Uh....well, when I saw the car my mind froze......and ...well, I was rooted to the spot."
Obviously , I can't tell her the truth. Hope she believes it.
"And you have a dog?!" I asked her, desperately trying to change the subject.
At that, she began to laugh again and the dog snarled at me. I quickly turned away.
"And yea, when you passed out, Troy brought you here carrying you bridal style" she said.
I rolled my eyes. But actually, that was kind of sweet. I didn't expect a guy like that to be sweet. Well,Expect the unexpected, I thought to myself.
In all this, a middle-aged woman, with long hair came in. I presumed it was Charlene's mum.
When she swaw me , she hurried towards me and pulled me in to a tight hug. That was kind. This lady was like the incarnation of an angel and Charlene......the devil itself. I wondered how she was born to such a lady.
Her mum cupped my face and said"You're alright! " I could see delight in her eyes. "I'll go and get something to eat",she said.
"Um, no need for that ma'am"I denie politely.
Her face flashed an expression of hurt as if I had said something wrong, but it returned back to normal.
"You can call me mom , you knoe" she said.
At that, I smiled at her and said'Ofcourse mom, but I really have to go now."
After saying my goodbyes, I stepped out. Charlene insisted that she would come with me(With the vicious dog).
When we reached home, she couldn't come in as she had some other work to do.
So, I took out the keys to unlock the door and was shocked to see it already unlocked.
I got a mini-hearattack when I saw a figure standing near the couch , with his back to me.
