JAH SAYS

11: Closer 💜

I walk up a driveway, recognising it to be the neighbour's one.

Why am I here again?

I look behind me, noticing the setting sun.

It's gonna be nighttime soon... Let me just get this over with.

Walking all the way up, the sun sets and the lights of the house remains off. A chill is felt in the air the closer I get to the front door. Standing outside, I notice that it is left open ajar.

What the-

I gasp, standing on guard as I hear footsteps inside the house.

Oh, yeah. I came here because Herah told me that she heard screaming coming from this place.

Just then, I rush all the way to the door and push it open all the way, stopping right at the frame at what I see.

"You're a murderer!" I say to the man who stands above the bodies of my dead neighbours with a smile on his face.

I know that there's nothing I can do... Not yet! Look at this fool!

"Don!" I say, my anger causing my veins to pop up as I clench my fists tightly.

Look at this idiot! He gets to kill innocent people and get away with it! He's not touching any of my people! He won't get to Herah!

Just then, Don, with patches of blood covering his pants and arms, looks up at me and smirks.

"Oh, but I will... I will get to your precious little fiancé! I'll get to Herah!" He screams, still clenching the blade in his hand that he undoubtedly used to murder these people who lay there in cold blood.

"But... That's! Just not... Fair! Why can't I do a thing-"

My eyes open to my dark room as I lay on my back in bed. I frown at the dream I had just had.

Way too close for comfort. Damn right it was just a dream. At that, I would've killed him on the spot. Don is only a p**sy.

Later;

Herah and I sit in my bed staring at each other.

"Later," I tell her.

"What did you want to talk about, Jah?" She asks.

"Later..." I repeat.

I would like to wait before I talk to Herah about our rings. For when the atmosphere goes back to the way it was before that punk ass h*e showed up to my f*cking house. Too bad I couldn't kill him... How unfortunate?

After the incident, everyone had left. My mother had planned to spend the night out with her friends and even sleep over there, but, I told her to stay here because, now, Don knows who she is, and I may be paranoid, but I don't trust anyone...let alone that demon, who keeps showing up in my life.

"Jah, I won't stop until you tell me what it is. Please." Herah whines.

"I gave into you when you wanted to see the dresses!" She says, kinda making a valid point.
