Love By A Neat Freak Psychopath ✔

Chapter 10

Escape

"Do you really think you can hide from me?"

I swallowed hard when I saw her face. She looked so mad while standing a few feet away from me wearing her gorgeous dress that emphasized her hourglass body.

"Are you having fun in this chasing game?"

Her voice was cold and void of emotion. And her eyes were gazing sharply at me.

"No.."- I muttered while gently shaking my head.

She smiled. "Me too, baby. I hate this, but since you started it, you might as well continue it. Now run! Run for your life or else you'll end up being like her."

She pointed at something on the floor, and my eyes went round when I saw what it is.

I was terrified to see Cassiopeia's lifeless body. It was covered with blood, from her neck down to her stomach.

"Gosh, what have you done to her?!"

She laughed and raised her hand, which was holding a bloody knife.

"You are mine. Anyone who tries to take you away from me will die in my hands."

No! This is not true!

"Cass!!"

Napabalikwas ako ng bangon at takot na nilibot ang paningin sa buong kwarto na madilim. Pawis na pawis ako kahit may air-con naman at naghahabol din ako ng hininga.

Aligaga akong bumaba ng kama at lumabas ng guest room. Mabilis ang lakad na tinungo ko ang kwarto ni Cassiopeia at kumatok dito.

Nanginginig pa din ako sa takot dahil parang totoo talaga yung panaginip ko. Parang totoo yung mga dugo na nakita ko.

"Bella?"

Naluluha kong tinignan si Cassiopeia. Halatang nagising lang ito dahil sa katok ko dahil medyo magulo pa ang buhok nito.

"What's wrong?"

I push the door open and embrace her. She was taken aback, but I didn't let her go.

"I've had a nightmare. Y-You died."- I lowered my voice and buried my face in her neck.

I tightened my hug on her waist when I felt her hand caressing my back to calm me down.

"Sshh, it's just a nightmare. I'm still alive, Bella."

Hindi ako iyakin pero kapag usapan mahal sa buhay lumalabas talaga ang luha ko. At hindi na din naman iba sa akin si Cassiopeia dahil para ko na din syang ate.

"Do you want to sleep here?" - she softly muttered.

"Can I?"

She pushed me away and wiped my tears. She even gave me a genuine smile while nodding her head.

Sinarado na nya ulit yung pinto ng kwarto nya at sabay na kaming bumalik sa kama nya.

"I'm sorry for disturbing you."- hinging paumanhin ko dahil nabulabog ko naman talaga ang pag tulog nya.

"It's alright. I'm not a heavy sleeper."

Inayos nya ang kumot namin pareho pero ang kinabigla ko ay nung bigla nya akong yakapin kaya muli akong napasubsob sa leeg nya.

"Sleep tight, Bella. Good night."- mahinang sabi nya at hinaplos pa ang likod ng ulo ko.
Tumulala muna ako ng mga ilang minuto bago ko naramdaman ang pagbigat ng mga talukap ng mata ko. Hindi din naman nagtagal ay muli akong nakatulog pero hindi na ulit ako dinalaw ng panaginip ko.
