After a restless night's sleep. I wake with the smell of bacon but also the sound of my curtains fluttering in the wind, I peak my eyes open and see that my balcony doors are open. 'No freaking way that I left it open... please tell me I'm just being really paranoid.'
I glance around and see a bunch of grown cosmos in a pretty vase on my desk. Curious I frown as I approach. 'Probably someone put my favorite flowers here to make me feel better. Well it is sweet.'
I grab my phone and see I have just the normal texts from my friends but no more creepy messages. I roll out of bed and move slowly downstairs, I find Kyle is serving the twins. Now this is strange. With my brows furrowed I approach him, as I get close he lifts his eyes and gives me a comforting smile.
I sit cautiously next to the twins, their eyes light up and give me huge smiles even though their mouths are full of bacon and toast. "So... Where is mom and Silver? And... Why are you here?" I try to ask as casually as possible.
He grins at me as he brings a plate to me with fried tomato, 2 pieces of bacon and a slice of toast. As he places it in front of me his grin grows "ah well. You see your mom and my dad decided to go sort a few things out, they'll be back to pick up the twins for school, soooo I was left in charge to get them ready and..."
He looks at my groggy face and then continues "and I was also left here to help you. Well that is if you need me to help you." His eyes then shift from a playful glimmer in them, to a more serious one "but if I can't help you physically Dia... I'm here for you if you want to talk."
I'm taken aback, he is so sincere. I've never seen him like this before. As I dig in to breakfast, the twins ramble on about the upcoming day.
As time slips by. Before I know it, it's late morning, me and Kyle are watching some horror movie on the tv. My secret indulgence. We both cringe and flinch at the same scenes, as we both dig into the popcorn, the screen suddenly flashes with an emergency broadcast.
A man in a suit starts reporting on the emergency. I grab the remote and turn the volume up as he begins speaking.
"Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen. I am sorry to interrupt with this broadcast. But it has been brought to our attention that Mr Terrance Cian is the alleged night time rapist from years ago. How do we know this? Because the rapes with the same markings left at the previous scenes have started to appear again."
I stare at the screen as his mug shot is broadcasted. My eyes are glued to it. I can't look away no matter how bad it hurts.
"It seems as Mr Cian used his daughter's hospitalization to his advantaged and since then he has begun his attacks once again. He attacks between 12-4am and the victims vary in ages, from children to elderly women, he is known to be armed and dangerous, if he is seen please dial the number below."
My mind is blank, he hasn't just raped me, he has raped countless other women. 'What if... W-what if I'm not the only one that had fallen pregnant?' I'm zoning out and am brought back to reality with Kyle waving a hand in front on my face.
"Elooo? Anyone home?" As I look into his now grey eyes full of worry, my heart warms a bit knowing he cares about me. "Are you okay Dee?" I meekly shake my head as I feel tears line my eyes, he opens his arms and invites me to be comforted. I gratefully accept his warm embrace.
As I bury my face into his chest I let the tears flow freely off my cheeks and onto his chest.
