Became Devil To Kill The Evil

Chapter 3 (Unexpected)

It felt like I was losing my kind. Seeing this text made my skin crawl, my breathing was not supporting my lungs anymore. The more I look at the text, the more it seems scary. My hands started to shiver, I rolled my head 360 degrees to check every corner of my room. I impatiently ran here and there in my house to be sure that every window and door was securely locked. I took out my phone from the pocket of my pajama and was about to call Samantha but stopped. She is with Christopher and I should not ruin their date. "I have to do something," I told myself and called my uncle William, he was my father's younger brother but after my parents were gone, he was like a father to me. "Hey sweetie" a female voice came from the other side and it was his wife and to be exact his third wife whom I don't like a bit. She seems very prentendious and too good to be true. Everytime I go to meet my uncle, she always treat me like I was the only one she loves. She starts to make my favourite food any everything which I don't want because I know all of these are fake. No one can be so good especially when she is not related to me in anyways. "Hi, may I speak to my uncle?" and I was not requesting, I demanded to which she responded that he was out to buy some groceries from the nearby store and after listening to her, I sighed in disappointment and hung up. 'Oh god, this is terrible. Now whom I can call? I have no one except uncle and her but they both are busy with their chores' A sudden buzz in my phone pulls me out of my thoughts. I checked the caller ID and it was Christopher, I picked up the Call in confusion "Hello?" and he hung up. I assumed it was by mistake and my eyes landed on the text again which got me a shiver little. I recall everyone in my mind to see if I had anyone to speak but nothing came up so I dialed 911 and when I was about to press the call button, Christoper called me again. "Hello, Christopher?" this time I was a bit irritated "Where are you?" he asked ignoring the greeting part and I fumbled "A-at my h-home. Why?" It sounded more like a confusion than a question. "Come to the Hotel Carnival, NOW" he literally ordered to which I asked about Samantha as I knew asking him the reason would not work. He is someone who will order you do to anything but will not care to give you a reason. "She is somewhere around. Please come here first and I will explain" and he hung up. This time it sounded like a request which made me tense a bit.  They are supposed to be on a date so why he is asking me to come? "Oh shit, Samantha. Is she okay?" I asked myself but quickly washed off the negative thought and without thinking twice, I opened the cupboard and grabbed the first dress I saw. It was an olive-colored bodycon knee-length dress which is also suitable for the location. I quickly applied gloss on my lips let my hair open and grabbed the keys. I half-open the door to check the outer area and there is no sign of a person except a lady watering her plants. I came out of the house and locked the front door then ran towards my car while unlocking it.

I got into the car and turned the engine on. At that moment, my only focus was on her. Christopher already shared the location which was not needed as the Hotel Carnival is one of the top and famous hotels in LA. I checked the time and it is 12 o'clock in the afternoon which is the peak time for traffic. The hotel is in 30 30-minute' drive from my house and to my surprise there was not that much traffic so I calculated in my mind that It would take hardly 40-45 minutes to reach. While driving, I called Samantha and she did not pick then I called Christopher and to my surprise Samnatha pick the Call. "Hey, why are you calling him?" this came to me as more like a surprise than a question and I asked her for her not picking up the Call. "Are you okay? He called and asked me to come and I thought you got into some trouble and I am-" She cut me off and informed me that she was okay and I didn't need to come which was weird.  I know Samantha has a temper issue but she does not talk to me like this especially when I am not at fault. Before I could say anything, she hung up and fury rose into me. I sped up the car and reached the location after 10 minutes. All the ways I was just being so so stressed out about all the things. First the text from him then a sudden call from her man and in return, she is giving me an attitude.

I tossed the car keys to the guard standing in front of me so he can park it. I got out of the car and marched inside the hotel where I found both of them sitting and discussing something serious. It looks like she trying to make him understand something and him rolling his eyes for god knows what reason. I must say, the hair and the dress both suited her so well. I reached nearby their table "Chris, I am warning you. Do not mess things up. It took my ye-" she stopped when she saw me. She was surprised or I would say shocked to see me. Her expression quickly changed and Christopher being a Christopher just turned his head toward the window after seeing me. "Hi Sammy" I waved at her ignoring he so-called man. "Hi, w-why are you here?" I was surprised to hear that not because of her question but her tone, it was a bit unsettling. "Ask your man, why he called me. I was more than a half way when I am being informed that it was prank so I thought why not coming here and surprise him" I said sarcastically. "It is not a prank" he said without looking and I looked at him in a confusion. "Then why I am here?" I demanded an answer from him. Samantha glared at him with fury and he uttered the words which was not at all soothing as he answered my question saying that every time he was worked up because Samantha forgot about their dates and this time he wanted me to be worked up and he won the game. "As you are already here, check the menu and order for yourself whatever you like" this came from him. Okay so first of all he is the one to call me and second, he does not have to tell me what to do.  A small growl came from my tummy and this made me embarrass a bit and quickly drank the water from her glass. "What? Don't you get hungry? It is 12:45 in the afternoon and I didn't get a chance to have anything" I clenched my jaw and let out a small portion of my frustration. It was very chaotic today and I did not have a chance to cook. "I didn't say anything" he exclaimed and I just rolled my eyes.

I signaled a waiter who was standing around a nearby table. He came to me with a wide smile which made me soothe a bit as looking at happy faces does make you relaxed. "One veggie-pan spaghetti with a lemon-mint mojito" I ordered "Anything for dessert ma'am?" he asked with hopeful eyes and I smiled and asked for blueberry cheesecake.  After written the orders he nodded with a smile he went. I was looking at the Christopher. No not looking but glaring at him. He is quite but when I was glaring him I saw his facial features carefully. He does look like a model but Samantha is way too pretty. She was doing something in her phone "Sammy, is all good? You looked a bit tensed" I asked after examining her expressions to which she nodded with a smile and we started talking about here and there when suddenly her phone rang and she look shocked after looking at the caller ID.
