James( the flashback)

A bell rang and the crowd of students wrestling each other who will come out first from their classroom door.

It's recess time and as far as he recalls, back in his school days, this is the most favorite part of all students because you have time to mingle with your friends from other sections, having a conversation with someone you like, and of course eating snacks at the canteen where you can spot your crush from afar.

Unlike the boy from the corner, his name is James Fox and he's a nerdy-type of student which you hated to hang-up with.
He is as usual going to the corner of a canteen, eating alone his fav-to-order snacks, a tuna sandwich with a partner of lemon juice drinks.
Nobody wants him, even a friend, and you know what he is thinking right now?

" All of you are sickening like hell" especially my mom, shes a hooker, and I am tired every night listening to her voice, shouting like "I like it" do it" don't stop"! With that bastard Mr.Franco, her regular customer every other day at night next to my room."

A fourteen-year-old boy has thoughts like that. Do you believe it? He's tired In this cruel world. He's tired to hear his classmates bullying and laughing at him. He hated to see his mom as a prostitute. All he wanted is to make them stop.

He clenched his fist so much like he wanted to hit or kill someone in front of him. With an evil-cold look in his eyes, James notices that everyone is watching him, laughing at him, backstabbing him. Maybe they think that he's insane.

He just looks at them and bursts out in tears and runs to leave the school.

And the bell rang again!

Time to go back to class but James, as he returned to his room he directly goes to his chair and grabs his bag. He decided to go home without even asking permission from his teacher.

"I Am not sorry mom!" He murmured.

James Pov(flashback)

I keep on running. I want to find answers, why I'm treated like this by those people around me especially my mother.

Since I was a little kid I've never received any birthday gifts from her, a smile from her, or even a love of a mother for her only boy.
Sometimes I am thinking that maybe I have a brother from one of her lovers.

Why is she always beating me and told me that I'm her nightmares that she hated the most?
Why she let me live? If that words of her are killing me a thousand times like a blade stabbing my body.

I hate her so much that I wanted to kill her.

Before I open the door of our house I heard that they are laughing. She's not the only one there but I heard a little kid's laughter and a voice of a man.
When they heard the noise made by me by slamming hard the door, they all look back at me and my mom came closer to me and bring me to the living room where the kid and Mr. Franco sat together.

" Meet Dave, your older brother", said my mom but I never look at him and quickly run inside my room to lock myself.

I heard moms banging the door saying " get out of here you evil kid" but I covered both of my ears with my hands and cried all night.

I want to be loved by her, only me but she loves my older brother over than me?
I can't forgive her.
He's not my brother because he was my mom's customer son. Can I be good to him? I don't know what she wanted to be someone's mistress. She's hurting and destroying one's family.

I opened the door and saw my mom, sleeping peacefully on the couch. She's drunk because of the liquors smelled on her body.

I don't know what has gotten into me. My visions turned darker and my hand is moving alone by themselves looking for something sharp.

BLOOD, BLOOD, BLOOD!

After a while, I saw blood everywhere on my mother's lifeless body.
She's dead.
I killed her.
I saw the knife still in my hands!

"No.! It's not me!" I shivered in terror. I began to panic.

"No .no..no!!!" I shouted.

-----------------------------

James had a nightmare again.
The past still haunts him.

He washes his face with water and looks at his image in the mirror saying " you are not the old James anymore" and I'm still not sorry!

An evil smirk came across his face. He wipes it and went to the kitchen. He took the knife on the knife's holder and stab it into the orange that was sitting on the center table.

His alarm rang and he quickly made his way to where Kate was been locked. It's time to check on her if she's still inside.

He slightly swings the door open and felt relieved that she was soundly sleeping. James paints a wide smile on his face to see his lovely girl fall into sleep peacefully.

"I hope I can be with you forever, Kate." He whispered and giggled.

"Wait for me because I will cook your favorite fried bacon!" He mumbled and went back upstairs and head straight to the kitchen.

He was humming the song "My Immortal", one of Kate's favorite songs while cooking. James looks calm and attentive today. What made him act like that?

What if Dave knew about it that his girlfriend was tied up, locked, and treated unevenly?

Will he just wait for her to pop out in the police station?

Will he wait and see her dead body in front of her?

Should he run to find her because he was desperately missing her?

What if none of these wasn't on his list? Do you want to know what kind of secrets Dave is hiding after his girlfriend's disappearance?
