I don't know if I should kiss you or stab you.
️⚠️MENTIONING OF MURDER⚠️
That's how he made me feel at the end. He has such a talent which made me fell into his trap. I'm such an idiot to let myself believe in him. Well well... what can I say, such a fool himself to think that it's all over after him and that monster claimed everything. I wonder how can a human simply gain somebody's trust, heart, love and yet they act like it never happened.
Now that I believe why humans are so selfish because they would kill eachother just to get what they want. So pathetic.
Arthur Caesar, the only son of my mom's bestfriend. They believed we were growing up together like their expectations. But we were completely opposite on that. I hated him. Every minute, every second. The sight of him made me sick everytime. Because him and that monster, killed my father. They killed my father, just to accomplish for the things they wanted from him. By that day, I realised he isn't a normal human, he was a devil himself and someday he will do the same to me like what they did to my father.
Then at that moment I realised, I met an evil when I was only a child.
A child.
Everything ends then and there. The blood has already been washed out. Nobody remembers anything anymore. It's only me who remembers it. Why? Because, nothing more is more powerful than a devil meeting the other devil. To take revenge. I don't remember his face anymore. I was only 6 when I lastly saw him. That pretty face with dark soul. It's been 18 years. Years, weeks, days..... eagerly waiting to meet that devil again. One thing for sure, If fate is with me, it is with me since that day, I'll meet him, fate will let us meet again. Yet an another moment, but this time, it's his turn....... TO DIE.
Both the family completely lost the connection after my father's death. He parted with his mom's family in Italy, his studies continued there. So far that's what I know. Because I didn't cared to listen things which is about him. Mom always forces me to talk with him, which I never give an attention to. There were moments, when I couldn't hold back myself, I wished to reveal the dirty truth that her dearest bestfriend's evil son and that monster are the people who killed her husband and still it is a mystery for everybody. The unknown fact is that, only I saw him stabbing my dad non-stop and that monster enjoying the sight infront of him, with an evil smile plastered on his face.
"Is everything alright mom?" I noticed my mom who was standing near my study table staring down at a photo stand which is faced down by me. I took a deep breath before approaching her. "You need to sit down and rest okay? You've been walking here and there for the past 30 minutes and you need bedrest now." I slowly put both my hands to each side of her shoulder, as a comfort and protection, leading her outside from my room to her room opposite to mine.
"Baby Briee, I don't want to sleep." She tried to stop me from bringing her to her room. I can feel how emotionally overwhelmed she is right now. "I can help you with doing the dishes baby briee. Just please, honey. I don't want to sit alone in my room."
"Mom......." I opened the door and closed it. Her room is exactly the same like it has been before. Not one thing or the place of the things have been changed by her. "You don't need to sleep or sit alone you know. There is the TV, you can watch them. Or you can read the books that you like." I reached towards the bookshelf to get a book for her.
*Ding Dong*
"Do we have a guest today?" I picked out a random book from the bookshelf and gave it to my mom.
"Mom, I'll go and check who it is, okay? Stay here and read this book until I come back." I give her an assuring look before leaving her room.
As we moved away from our hometown after my dad's death, nobody would come to visit us or check on us if we are doing fine or not. My mom's bestfriend, Alyssa, we moved with the help of her. For me, Alyssa was such a great person. Everything about her is so kind. She found a home in her street area, so that she can check on my mom and take care of her. She would die for my mom. When Alyssa was about to move Italy, she even made me promise that I should look after my mom very well. But I hate one thing which is related to her; her son. Arthur. Back then, I didn't liked the idea of visiting her home when he is in there. I always tried my best to find excuses so that I cannot see his face. My mom tried her best to get to know about other neighbour and let's say, she tried her best to give me the best life.
Having a guest in our house was like the unexpected rain happens during summer time. Rarely we get visitors and the visitors are mostly Alyssa or her son when they come back from Italy for a visit. Fast forward, now that he become a businessman under his father's company, I can finally stop seeing that monster's face. He would always find excuses to come to my house and won't stop doing that creepy smile. I hate that smile. It gives me flashbacks of everything. Everything happened because of him. Some way my intuition was giving me a trouble warning. I can feel it on my stomach. Is that what I'm think of? It can't be.
I took a deep breath before holding the door knob. "Who is it?"
"Open up, Ann."
It can't be.... I don't want to see the person whom I'm thinking of. God please don't be of that person please.
"Hi honey..." somebody hugged me. The scent is so familiar.
I took a step back to see who it is.
"Aunt Alyssa? Oh my god, when did you arrived here? It's been somany years, I missed you." I hugged her once again.
"Oh my darling, I missed you too. You've grown up into a beautiful young lady. You reminds me of your mom when she was your age." She softly caressed my hair.
I took a quick glance to the surrounding to see if anybody else other than her came here.
"Oh, are you looking for Arthur? He went to park his car honey. Why don't you let me inside? It's chilling outside." Alyssa understood what I'm doing. She always does.
"Oh- I'm sorry I just- yeah, come inside please. I'll bring my mom here." I took a quick glance again before closing the door.
"It's fine, briee. I'll go to her room. You know, it's been years since we last met. Let two of us have a girlie time together." She smiled at me and give me some paper bags filled with heavy stuffs.
Ever since we started living alone, Alyssa always brought everything we needed without even asking for it. Particularly, I became the spoiled kid. Many branded items, things filled in our house.
"Ann?"
It wasn't Alyssa. But a male voice.
"Huh?" I don't want to turn around. Because I know who's voice is behind me.
"Long time no see Ann."
