I closed my eyes as I breathe Kathreen's scent.
Hindi nga ako nagkamali, she's one in a million.

I've never felt something so serene when she's around.

She's like my bliss in the midst of chaos yet she is also like Snow White's apple that could snuff out my life in a nibble.

I locked one chain on Kathreen's neck and then two on both her hands. Glady, she's not the same with my previous victims. All they did was panic, scream in terror and ran amok. They even tried to kill me just to escape.

But Kathreen's way more submissive. Well, I understand kung nagpanic din siya kanina but she's calmer now and I like her more that way.
Hindi ako mahihirapang patayin siya soon.

Both she and Jonah still have swollen faces from the tears shed a while ago.

I grabbed the shovel, axe, rake, a pruning shears and a stoning hammer and placed them neatly in front of Kathreen.

She looked at me with a puzzled face and then at Jonah, who was only across from her.

Yumuko ako ng kaonti at inakbayan siya. Her breathing is intense and her body is shaking. I smiled triumphantly, thinking I could make her feel this way. I don't know, I feel floating inside.

"I want you to choose. What's the first tool that captures your eyes the most? Miss Kathreen?" I whisper to her ear.

Hindi ko maiwasang hindi mapasinghap sa sobrang bango ni Kathreen! Her skin scent is to die for! There's an urge in me that wants her to scream my name!

"A—anong gagawin mo? Para sa'n? Para sakin? Papatayin mo na ba ako?" nanginginig ang boses na tanong niya sa akin.

"Choose." I uttered. Isang tanong, isang sagot. Simple!

Napatingin siya kay Jonah at naluluhang tinignan ulit ang mga gamit na nasa harapan niya. Ilang minuto muna ang dumaan bago niya napiling isagot ang 'stonning hammer'.

Napatango-tango ako, "good choice!" nakangisi kong sabi. It's gonna be easy for me to kill a person if I use the stoning hammer. The victim won't feel anything, they will just shut down the moment they're hit on the head. That's not something I could enjoy watching tho.

So, I removed it.
Inakbayan kong muli si Kathreen. "Now choose another one."

Napalingon si Kathreen sa akin, "Akala ko ba—"

"Akala mo 'yan ang gagamitin ko sa'yo? No honey, that's boring."

"Bada! Bada pakawalan mo nalang ako!" biglang sumingit sa eksena si Jonah. "You have your new toy! She is so fresh, right?! She's prettier than me! You can do anything you want with her! I promise! Hindi ako magsusumbong! Please—please Bada! Let me go!"

I scoffed at her, "what made you think she is my new toy?"

Natigilan si Jonah sa tinanong ko.
"You're so desperate to live, to the point you wanted to sacrifice others life for you to survive?"

"I don't wanna die!! Bada! I beg you! Please spare my life!" she beg, crying.

I shifted my gaze toward Kathreen; her eyes appeared puffy from tears, and her distant stare suggested to me that she had come to terms with what lay ahead in her life.

I repeated my question to her, "choose." Kathreen look at me again, her eyes conveyed a profound sense of despair to me.

At the end of the conversation, she chose the axe.

As soon as I picked up the axe, I unintentionally turn and saw how Kathreen close her eyes and submissively kneel in front of me. Her tears run down her face and....

my heart skipped a beat.

What. An. Actual. Fuck?

How can be someone on the brick of despair appear so incredibly attractive and beautiful in front of me?

Napahawak ako nang mahigpit sa palakol na nasa kamay ko at agad na napaiwas ng tingin kay Kathreen.

This is so bizarre for me!
I already have a strong desire to stab this axe through her head, right here and right now, but for some reason, my body refuses to respond.

"Bada please spare my life! Ba—"

Hindi na ako nakapagtimpi at nahampas ko sa ulo ni Jonah ang matulis na bahagi ng palakol. Her eyes bulged when the axe plunged through her skull.

Her body tremble briefly before she fell to the floor, and then Kathreen's piercing scream echoes throughout the entire room.
