Unwanted

PREQUEL

The ground was cold beneath my knees. I was trembling, and it wasn't because it was -3 degrees. It was because he was holding a gun. It was dark but I could still make out the faint shimmer of the guns glossy black coating in the dim light coming from the street lamp beside me.

He slowly stepped into the full light of the street lamp. She was right. I looked nothing like him. That was good, I didnt want to. He was a sycho, how could she have once loved him? His eyes were black, full of hatred. his hair was at his chin, straggled and in knots. He had stubbles along the edges of his face. He hadn't washed for a while, you could tell. Probably because of the drink.

He just stood there. Watching my every movement. My hands ached as the hancuffs cut deaper into my freezing skin. He was smiling. The sight of him made me sick. The silence was killing me.

"So. Come on then. Lets get it over with." I couldn't beleive what i was saying, it all just came out. His smile stretched wider.

" I'm just taking everything in." he said drunkenly. " I've been waiting a while for this day. You took your time, but i knew you would come. D'you know, i was gonna start looking for you". I shuddered, what if he had started looking for me years ago? If he had found me? I would be dead. For a change, i looked back on those what i thought were horrible years, and i started to apreciate them.

"But then, she started looking for you." his face dropped slightly." So I thought, why waste the time? Let her find you, let her bond with you. I knew it would be all the more painfull when i killed you"

Tears welled up in my eyes. I was terrified. I tried not to show my fear. It was getting harder and harder. A single tear burst from my eye. It ran down my cheek and ran into my mouth. The salt taste was strong in my mouth.

" Awww, is the little one scared? Does she want her mummy?" he smirked. He crouched down next to me. "well. She can't have her mummy, because her mummy belongs to someone else. NOT YOU!" Another tear burst out. "Yeah, you're scared. I was hoping for that. Gives this all a better effect, don't you think?" He was right up in my face now. I shook at he touched my face. " you really do look like her." I let out a small gasp for air. " Shame". SLAP. My right cheek burned. He frowned. " Silly girl."

He got up. He raised the gun. " I knew that you would be trouble. And beleive me i punished her for not telling me about you, and for trying to keep you". " You make me sick!". He placed his finger on the triggor.

I took another gasp, my breath was shaky. " I am not a silly girl. I am not bad for being born. I am stronger than you think" I tried to calm down my breath pace"You are a coward". He put the gun up to my face. I took in my last breath and closed my eyes.
