My Retribution

Part 32

Freen's POV
After my moment with Richie I woke up in our living room. Kirk is there beside me watching and waiting for me.

Kirk: (smiling) It's been an hour and 7 minutes, partner. I bet that's enough sleep for you to take a bath. You stink.

I smell myself and he's right. "The Blood stinks. Disgusting!" I removed his coat and thanked him. I went directly to my room. I took a long warm bath. "That's refreshing" I was about to take more rest and I just wanted to check on Becky when I saw missed calls from her. "Ohh, shit!!! She hates being ignored. I should call her back"

I called her back and she answered after one ring. I immediately apologized for not answering her call and explained myself. I prepared myself to hear her nag or complain but she didn't respond and all I can hear is her cries and sobs. I got so worried that my instant thought was to see her, to be with her, to keep her safe, to comfort her. I grabbed a jacket since I'm wearing only shorts and my sports bra since I plan to stay in my room. I zipped my jacket as I took my keys. I told her to send me her location which she did. Kirk saw me rushing so he stopped me.

Kirk: (curious) Where are you going? You should rest. Rule number 4. You look pale and tired Freen.

Freen: (worried) I need to go. I have to make sure she's okay.

Kirk: (annoyed) Her? Who? Where?

I did not answer him since I don't have the time and all I can think of is Rebecca. I was about to enter my car when Kirk blocked the driver seat.

Freen: (death glare) Let me go or I'll make you!

He reluctantly stepped away so I pushed him hard that made him groan in pain and I immediately drove my car. I don't have time to check on him, to argue or to discuss anything with him. I drove as fast as I could to where Rebecca is.

I reached my destination and parked the car. I took my phone as I rushed to leave the car when I heard my phone ringing. Liza is calling me.

Freen: (annoyed) What?!

Liza: Oh my.. Did I catch you on a bad time? I'm sorry Freeny. I just want to give you an update. I can only do that through calling you know. Anyway, Richie will live, we sent him at the Bomroang Hospital.

"Bomroang?. Wait.. I'm at Bomroang.. Right. Right.. sooo Richie is here."

Freen: (cold voice) Okay. Thanks. Bye.

I ended the call and went inside. I just remembered the moment I had with Richie, that made me smile. "Serves him right". All through those 10 years reading and learning about them from afar, I know how close they are as siblings. Richie is the key to the downfall of the Armstrong. Now that we have achieved that, I can't help but be happy. Richie might be the reason why Rebecca is here. "Somehow relieving knowing that she's physically ok."

Richie deserved whatever happened to him. He beat 62 women, he even killed 16 of them for Pete's sake not to mention one of them is a minor. I didn't blink or even think twice returning whatever he did to those poor women. It was satisfying on my part, I'm happy to know that he can no longer hurt a woman ever again. So NO, I don't feel guilty at all for hurting him. If given a chance i would definitely do it again. I can't help but contemplate the victory I achieved today. "It's good to see Rebecca here. I might enjoy seeing them in chaos and suffering. After all I've been waiting and preparing for this for so long"

I went inside and looked for Rebecca wearing my smile while thinking about my success. I saw her with the Nurse. She looks weak. She's crying and sobbing, trying her best not to explode. My smile instantly faded and was changed into pain.  I felt my heart being stabbed at the sight of her. It hurt so much that I clenched my chest to see what's wrong with me. "Fuck! that hurts."
