Apathetic ft. devil

I faced this man & memories from the earlier night resurfaced as I watched him in utter disgust. They say everything that shines is not gold or every handsome man doesn’t have a good heart. He watched me as if I was the most intriguing thing in the entire world. Not only that but he eyed me utterly calmly. Such a stoic expression, no signs of displeasure, considering the one he kidnapped is running away. I have no idea why I even stopped. A shot rang through the air. A bullet just went right in front of my eyes. My disheveled hair swooshed with it due to it parting through the air fast.  

Like literally it could’ve simply pierced through my brain if I were an inch ahead of where I stand at the moment. And it somehow felt like it was wet somewhere, not sure exactly where until I put a hand to the running blood under my nose. The devil had shot, shot nowhere else but directly at my side. The bullet is engraved deep in the wall & I was left unhurt. I never saw him move to grab his gun or anything to attack me with. Again I met his eyes, black & absorbing. More like a black hole. You feel highly attracted to them,so much you might as well drown for how long. You can never tell. He had shot with such precision, the bullet didn't even touch me. It never occured to me why he didn’t just kill me. He clearly could’ve.  

Now I’m sure why he didn’t move. Because he’s clearly a psychopath who can keep me locked or killed without moving an inch. Yes, this realization is great because I clearly have no time to think now that I can’t even see anything & I’m falling. Again. To my side. Suddenly blocked a figure I can’t quite decipher whose. As I somewhat force myself to open my eyes, even if it’s only a bit. His cold eyes bore into mine. The devil’s holding me firmly. Staring into his eyes is like drowning, gasping for air. His eyes however, remain empty, void of any remorse for what he just did. I find no regret, no worry for what his actions could have resulted into. 

When I get tired of struggling to keep my eyes open, I finally give up and succumb to sleep in the devil’s arm. It might be the only thing I shouldn’t do, but I can’t help it. My eyelids feel heavy & my head hurts from thinking of merely escaping death. 

I wake up when the sunlight pours directly in my face. Annoyed by it, I opened my eyes to his presence. God is truly testing me with my patience, I hate this man who is so close to me manspreading on a chair right in front. My ears were still ringing from the gunshot yesterday. A tear slipped my eye when I tried rubbing them softly. 

What have I done? What have I done so wrong that nothing is going right in my life? Wasn’t it enough for the world to see me suffering from my parents' warmth that I was thrown into the devil’s hand? I swung my legs and sat on the bed side trying to get my senses straight & try to escape. Failing once won’t stop me from trying twice or more times until I get what I need. It’s better for me to die than to give up.  

Suddenly it occurred to me that we were clearly alone in a bedroom and the door being closed was even scarier. I ran a hand across clothes to find them there. I felt safe for a moment until I didn’t, I couldn’t trust being in a room with someone who had kidnapped me. The air was turning chillier every minute passing & his gaze didn’t help at all. I started to back up ever so slowly on the bed while he remained unfazed, manspreading on the chair in front. I eyed him in suspicion but continued either way. He loosened his black tie and sighed. The only reaction I’ve noticed since I saw him. When I reached the edge of the bed, I scurried away as fast as I could, reaching the door & twisting it harshly. I tapped the door to find anything that still kept me locked inside but I found nothing. I turned back at him glaring. 

“I hate you”, was all that came out.
